Ahhh Yusuke. It’s a bummer they went so creepy with him on his recruitment mission. Doing his social link, you realize he’s actually not interested in romance or sex at all; he’s single-mindedly focused on art and has very little grasp on social that the MC has to steer him away from putting himself in bad situations because of this lack of awareness. The writers made a bad choice making him so focused on Ann, considering the team JUST beat the teacher who was pressuring Ann sexually and was implied to have sexually abused her best freiend. Bad, tone-deaf choice
That really got me. They spent her whole arc showing how awful the experience was and how damaging his actions were to her, and then turn around and have her friends pressure her into agreeing to the painting. Like how can you not see a problem with that as a game developer? It also felt really weird for all of them because they generally in the game don't push for something if the person is uncomfortable, so it felt like they weren't taking her discomfort seriously at all. Honestly several of the ways the game handled Ann made me incredibly uncomfortable. 😩
@@bishielurfer Honestly, Atlus has a pretty bad track record when it comes to women and minorities. Persona 3 and Persona 4 both have scenes that are pure agony to sit through if you're trans and realize the implication. Naoto's entire character arc is basically "Transitioning bad".
@@dragonslair951167 why do people keep incorrectly saying this?! Her arc relates to societal expectations regarding gender. Yes, that isn't necessarily totally divorced from Trans issues faced (Had a trans ex), but it also isn't as close to it as people think. The simple and obvious message is "Some genders have societal barriers when there should be none" , so she pretended to be a male to get the chance to do the thing she should have been able to do in the first place. It reads more like a sad necessity rather than dysphoria, which disqualifies Trans stuff for me. Not all Trans people have dysphoria, but it is a *powerful* motivator to go through the process to GRS.
@@chillnagasden6190 Why is this the hill that Persona fans choose to die on? How many times am I, a non-binary, going to be lectured by cis folks about how a person assigned female at birth who dresses as a man, doesn't correct people who refer to them as a man, fantasizes about being a male character, is consistently uncomfortable doing almost anything traditionally feminine, and has an entire mind palace dedicated to their overwhelming desire to undergo gender reassignment surgery, couldn't possibly be interpreted as trans? Naoto's entire character arc is half a dozen transphobic stereotypes all rolled into one. A person who "Just needs to accept themselves" instead of getting surgery. A person who is getting gender reassignment surgery for the purpose of gaining social status. Whose desire to get gender reassignment surgery is portrayed as irrational and reckless. And who gets lectured halfway through about how their sex is immutable and unchangeable.
@@dragonslair951167 Additionally, 1)There is no hill. This is not a fight. This is a statement of *fact*. 2)Me happening to be Cis does not invalidate reality and facts. 3)But you jumping to the whole "oh Cis" immediately shows the bad faith tired shit that means you were never honest to begin with. 4)Well done ignoring the fact that I used to date a trans person. I guess it was more convenient to leave that out of the reply you made because some people like you are bad at English and reading comprehension and decided to conjure up a story , and it would undermined that desperate clinging? IDK. Don't bother replying.
@@NightRaven-lh1bf what's wrong? Some people don't know some of these things naturally. :P Especially stuff like Persona 5, where the developer has strict rules against showing content of the game past day 7/7. That game's story is so long 😂
The main thing that makes me not finish games is entirely my own fault: When it comes to big RPGs like Skyrim, The Witcher III, etc, I do so many side quests and exploring that I burn myself out and never progress the story (or I don't finish for a very long time because I keep needing to step away for a while).
I forget what the main quest was and at a certain point the process of making my way back to it is way too convoluted. Especially if the quest log says something vague and I was already several steps in and I'd have to backtrack. It's game over.
yeah, oblivion/morrowind both beat the main game when the expansion came out hehe. I've found that I have 3 stages of a open world game. stage 1 explore everything I find stage 2 find something I want to collect or do and focus on that stage 3 four months later realize HOLY SHIT I still haven't beaten then and rush through the end hehe :>
Opposite for me most of the time, I do so little side quests and avoid fighting to the point I’m at a required boss and I’m dying bc I’m using the gear I picked up 5 seconds ago
I tend to find one aspect of the game i lile that isnt really related to the main quest , and i do that tnen feel lost when i complete it. Like in skyrkm i enjoy building houses with tbe heartfire dlc, and when i finish i stop playing for months.
@rohuffgamingakawisteria6578 Yeah our fellow wise men can be hard to find but we're here somewhere. I can't imagine playing without subtitles at this point
Which is why I chose to start on either one of them and not develop any of the symptoms until everyone is infected, except on one of the level where the whole world research the cure from the start Now that specific level, can f**k off
When I first played the game, I had a virus that infected everyone, 100% of the planet was infected, BUT I didn't put points into lethality, so no one was dying. I couldn't evolve the virus since everyone was infected.
Yeah. Back before a totally avoidable pandemic wasn't avoided in the slightest due to the idiotic insistence that we just have no border security because everything will magically work out for the best and how dare you how dare you, you vile disgusting racist if you dare to disagree. Ahhh them's was the days. Back when people thought things through instead of just exploding at everyone in the vicinity for slightly disagreeing.
Demogorgon47 the pandemic was never avoidable. The massive spread was but not the pandemic because when it starts somewhere it’s likely gonna spread fast and we didn’t take it seriously enough because something like this doesn’t just happen all the time.
@@dailyraptor7700 Yeah.....or maybe if we'd closed the borders instead of "BUT RACCCCCCCCCCIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!" the virus would have stayed in China. So whilst it's possible it was unavoidable I sincerely doubt it.
To be fair, literally everyone in Persona 5 acted like a massive weirdo before finally joining the party, at which point they took a chill pill and start behaving like human beings.
@@unculturedswine5583 yea ryuji is the asshole that always has your back, ann likes to act kind of aloof but cares a lot, and yusuke the a-sexual who only thinks of his art who is loyal to a fault
No one tell her that there were 7 more phases to the Ansem fight. I told my sister that when she was fighting him AFTER she already beat the second ansem part and she just laid on the floor saying oh god over and over
After the second guardian fight, it's only one more stage, where are you getting 7? Island garudian, dark sora 2.0, Heartless bubble guardian (the solo stage she talks about), the world core stage
@@valdenay7264 The World of Chaos is actually split into multiple phases. One where you fight Ansem's part, one where you fight a wave of heartless, where you fight some tentacle cannon thingies, another wave of heartless, a massive head, ANOTHER wave of heartless, the core of it, and then Ansem again. That's 8 Phases and I may have even forgotten some. Fortunately some of the phases can be pretty quick depending how you go about them and hiw good you are at the game, though.
@@emilyconnor3911 I can agree with this statement... I forgot which channel did it, but one of them mentioned the other channel one time, I know I remember it... But anyhow, both channels are amazing. They each have their own pros and cons. But I do still respect your opinion.
Resident evil taught me the value of dividing my weapons in tiers and ranking what enemies are worth what ammo. Code Veronica was my introduction to RE so I learned this lesson in the same way with the tyrant fight. Only difference is Final Fantasy taught me years ago that I should play with at least a good 2-4 save files.
Caleb Cannon Yea I was going to say Ive played through the Black Ops campaign like 3 times and I dint remember the barrels at all lol I think I missed the dialogue and just kept moving
Honestly, I had to take a week long break from AC Black Flag because of SHIP STEALTH. THIS GIANT SHIP IS NOT MADE FOR SNEAKING AROUND, ITS MADE FOR COOL FIGHT SEQUENCES WITH CANNONS GOSH DARNIT.
I never really had a problem with them. Just go slowly, and use the minimap rather than the screen to navigate. Shows you their sight lines as well. Remain at half sail until they start getting ahead, then switch to full sail for a few seconds until you catch up
Urgh, yeah ... i didn't really have a problem with them, gameplay-wise, but they made very little sense to me. The only thing worse was tank-stealthing in Arkham Knight.
I powered my way through that Ansem fight in KH 1.5 but man was I cussing up a blue storm during it. One of my roommates came in wondering what was going on and my other roommate who was watching just answered "Kingdom Hearts". Nothing else needed to be said.
@@angelitabecerra I watched someone else play the Ansem fight and decided right then, without even trying it once, that I didn't want to play Kingdom Hearts at all, ever. Plus, I don't give any shits about Disney stuff so I passed on it.
@@jtyler9130 i absolutely had more problems with the riku fight than with ansem, but I was also level 100 when I fought ansem because of achievement grinding.
So fun fact: I've never actually played a whole Kingdom Hearts game. I HAVE however beaten Ansem. My younger brother lost like a dozen times and after I got tired of laughing at him I offered to try it myself, and he just wanted to see me fail for a while so he let me. And I did fail. Once. I spent the whole first attempt learning the buttons, and beat him on the second try. My brother has still never forgiven me for that and it must've been 16 years ago this happened.
Joey I wouldn’t forgive you either because Ansem whooped my ass a million times and it took a million hours and tears and a thousand boss battles for me to win. ONLY TO BE SEPARATED FROM KAIRI.
Kingdom Hearts was the first game I ever beat By Myself without any help with from my brother... Kingdom Hearts 2 was the second. However during the last cut scene my mom called and I had to walk away to answer. That means I had to go through the last fight over again to watch it (or at least I thought so, I never searched to see if they saved). I got stuck in THE GREAT WHITE FUCK OFF ROOM. I had already beat it once, but I couldn’t get through it again. So I handed to controller to my brother (who had never played it before ever) and he neatly beat it for me in one go.
@Jordan Spencer Wuut he's like the easiest guy, did him in the first go. I beat every single member of org 13 expect for Marluxia (#11, pink hair, scythe) it was literally impossible.

@@insomniacbritgaming1632 I'm glad you find it weak to dislike sexual harassment and threats of being arrested if you don't sell your body to a creep. Totally normal behavior.
That scream in Max Payne definitely happened, however the scream in this video isn't the original scream used in the game, but you are correct it absolutely happened 😅
@@pipebhart4272 I know because I got stuck on that part of the game literally for hours and my whole family was like WHAT IS THAT ANNOYING SCREAMING That part of the game haunts me as one of the worst designed parts of any game ever
Just singing a song,then found a legendary. Sailed away while it's chasing me,found another. Then I stood still,and the waves became my plot armor. With every shot fired,the waves moved me out of the way. They destroyed each other.
"ruining the immersion!" FINALLY someone understands. Do a list on games that refused to stop holding your hand. Theres one i cant remember because its what made me say eff this game
realitynowassigned Getting told the value of rupees in some Zelda games every time you restart the game... I can see how many get added to my wallet. Just ad an option to remove those tutorials for veteran players.
Wolves hunt in packs! -Dragon’s Dogma pawn chatter. It’s like training wheels you can’t take off. Goblins hate fire! For the hundredth time I know that already.
My own "eff this" moment was the end of the first time I played Persona 3. It was two in the morning, and I was really hyped to see how it all ended. Epic boss battle, forty-something minutes in, I get it down to half health, and then it fires off a super attack that inflicts random status conditions on my party. It charmed Yukari. Who then, before I could take an action again, HEALED IT UP TO FULL. I was just so demoralised I turned the console off right then and didn't even retry it for another few days.
@@300IQPrower I've got another one--the final boss of the Doom Eternal DLC. You know those really annoying enemies where you just have to wait for their "shoot me now" cues, and you can't use any clever strategies? Let's model the final boss on those guys! But his tells last half as long, and every time he hits you, he regenerates a third of his health. Then repeat the same thing four times!
My problem was that he was using up all his magic offensively before I was injured enough to warrant a healing, and before he could build his MP back up, Goofy would have somehow gotten more hurt than me, so Donald would heal him instead. I don't let him hold ethers either, they're too rare in the early game and he just uses up what I give him in one fight. Eventually I starting shoving Goofy's pockets full of standard potions while I carried two ethers, two hi-potions, an elixer and a mega-potion, all of which were reserved until *I* decided we needed them. Once Goofy runs out of potions, which will be obvious trust me, *then* Donald can have an ether, and I'll replenish my pockets once out of combat 👍
I'm pretty sure I spent most of my time on Kingdom Hearts healing Donald and Goofy constantly during the last fight. I got MP that quickly, I would just basically spam cure whilst them 2 dealt offense.
The most famous one of these has to be in the final battle of Mega Man when you can get past the last save point with no bubbles, which leaves you with no way to beat the final boss as you can only hurt him with bubbles. There is no way to go back to a previous save so you can't beat the game.
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone for the pc. The part where you have to sneak around the library stressed me so much. I still think about it today and it STILL makes me anxious
@@vault29a i mean, yes, buy that hardly makes his introduction less problematic given, as luke said, ann was very much not involved in his nude painting consensually. Yusuke is a lot better once you get past his introduction but it's still not a great introduction, especially given that ann was already a victim of sexual harassment by kamoshida
@jamesherb4384 except he never really intended to do the nude painting in the first place. He only said that to get the phantom thieves to leave him alone. He didn't actually think they would agree to it.
I rage quit the first Max Payne over the “escape the fire” sequence. I tried so many times. Add to the difficulty the fact that every death forces you to watch an unskippable cutscene, and the fact that there is a giant glass but somehow unbreakable window right where you start, and I never did finish….
Psychonauts. During the meat circus when you have to climb up the flaming circular wire cage with imprecise controls and an unmovable camera angle and water rising below you threatening to kill you if you take too long. It was the end of the game and I said, "you know what? i did enough."
Alex Jones Bruh don’t tell me you’ve never had that one Xbox friend who you tell that you’ll see him tomorrow and never see him again for years. That shit hurts dude.
Thomas Regnart objection: though JP’s age of consent is lower than other Western countries, sexual harassment is still universal. High school? Office lady? Elderly? She said no, son, back the fuck up.
When Andy asked this, I thought Luke was going to answer: JAPAN! Not as a justification, but as a way of explaining it's a game made by the mentally impaired.
Did she say no though? I think that the dialogue is a bit iffy, but basically Yosuke wants to call the police because they are on the property on false pretences if they don't either consent or leave. It is an odd scene however, and it makes me wonder if the writers of Persona 5 know any models because it is very common for models to bring friends along to avoid unwanted behaviour.
Iain Perkins Saying "no" isn't always an option safely available - especially when your friends are pressuring you to go along with something & you are but a wee teenybop. Always look for an explicit "yes" and if that doesn't happen then back off. If you're teaming up - for an art project, espionage, ambushes, infiltration - you've got to respect your team. Everyone's on board or you find another way everyone can work with.
Capcom has aboard meeting. "so lets add a gernade launcher here. early in the game, and then later in the game well add the toughest monster in the game into a chase sequence where the gernade launcher is the key!!!" "wont the player try to waste the epic gernade launcher on the enemies in excitement?" everyone looks around the table... "NAAAAAAAAAHHHHH"
Am I the only one who intentionally uses the weakest but effective weapon for this exact reason. Perfect example is dying light or even dark souls before you can repair at the bonfire
@@TheSnKoh Also Dead Space, I remember doing well in the game even on challenging difficulty because I focused on killing every enemy as efficiently as possible. My brother just couldn't do that, letting encounters go a bit out of control more often, and would get stuck because he was simply out of ammo. Anyway, it's fine if you're heavy into maximizer/efficiency tendencies but most people aren't so....
I'm almost positive I got through that COD level without knowing about the 'stab the barrel' trick. After an hour or so of playing like you described, I just got pissed and charged down into the trench, and the level proceeded.
At the end of the original Link's Awakening, the last boss starts with a blob phase. My two siblings and I couldn't figure out what to do to it, none of our items would work, so we just kept swinging at it with everything we had. After like... thirty minutes, it transformed! Yay, we did it! In reality, you're supposed to hit it with magic powder, which we did try, we just sucked at the timing and got no confirmation that was the correct thing to do, so we stopped trying. I'm just really glad the devs put in some sort of failsafe to move the fight along, or we would have given up.
ya see i always do that for any game so i hade no ishues at all tbh this whole list ik its there exsperences but i dont relate at all to any sure anoying but iv never just quite a game and never stoped and had to come back enless it was just a fight i couldent win and was actually to weak to beat at that point (like in one game i foucuesed on upgradeing just on party member then um ya eventually that one op member wasent anuf for a fight and i needed 2 go back so ya) and some games you cant do that its go back and farm not even worth it enimes or thats not even a option and your stuck there and have to go back before you entered to farm or do something diffrent
TheRealCheznut I honestly hope they do more of them. The scripted list vids are the ones that I watch the least often, but I absolutely love these personal stories.
Tbh I like japan a lot, but these things have put me off from some works so hard that I'm currently purging myself from them. One of the worst was a manga about real martial arts, alright, and then they beat up this bad guy and they proceed to add him to the team... What was his thing? He was a literal rapist, "but don't worry, he only raped guys!"... W t f Japan, they tried to play it as if it should be ignored or taken as a joke because he liked to force his penis into other men he subdued with martial arts and I had to just accept that? Not even close to cool, fully dropped that manga (it wasn't a hentai nor anything like that so it really was a disappointing curve ball) My point is that Japan sometimes is cool, but a lot of other times they really need to talk to a counselor or something because holy f.
Except he completely misinterpreted the character though. Yusuke is asexual and isn't painting Ann to be a pervert. He says her beauty reminds him of a painting he is inspired by as an artist, and wants to capture that feeling himself.
@@basicoptimalmouse first off, Yusuke being asxesual is nothing but a fan theory. second, that hardly changes the fact that ann was clearly not interested, and that Yusuke 100% blackmailed her into compliance by threatening to get the police involved. Luke completely understood what was happening at that specific moment, even if it wasn't ultimately a testament to Yusuke's actual character
I quit Catherine hard after it became apparent that Vincent could solve his problems easily by simply talking to Katherine or being assertive with Catherine, but instead decided to be a coward. Then the Bride was sufficiently difficult that trying to beat her wasn't worth the effort to continue watching Vincent refuse to deal with his problems.
Part of the deal with Catherine is that the player ultimately makes Vincent's choice or not-quite-choice for him along the spectrum of chaos and order. But dang, watching Vincent either space out or wet himself with terror throughout the game got old fast.
I loved that game. It wouldn't be a game if Vincent started off as a brave staunch individual. It was about the journey to make him a better man. Not every game should be about a bad ass character who makes all the right decisions. If Dante or Master Chief were the main character type of every game that would be boring. Character development makes me feel accomplished. The problem solving was a blast. I can't wait to get the New Catherine remastered that's coming out. Though to be honest I do agree with you at times Vincent being such a coward bugged me, but he got it together by the end.
Any assassin's creed eaves dropping/tailing mission ever. They are so tedious but the most egregious was in black flag when you had to stealth follow a ship, in another ship.
God yes. I'm playing Syndicate atm and every time the little "tail" icon pops up I quit for a few days. SO annoying and so badly done, really. Trying to stay at X distance while not being spotted but not losing the target. Rage. Then I forget why I stopped playing, load it up and go "OH EFF EFF ESS"
To be fair, as with the melee combat, tailing is one thing from post-Ezio AC that Syndicate kind-of fixed so it's kind-of not total bullshit. Although I seem to recall that Syndicate seriously breaks AC lore about Assassin running speed by having fat old ladies that you "tail" by sprinting after them and never catch up.
That moment when you realize you've gotten old just happened to me. I've been watching these videos lately having just stumbled on the channel and was like "surely someone will mention the Wiegraf fight in Final Fantasy Tactics in the comments...." and to this day I may still be somewhere here, scrolling through, hoping beyond hope that time hasn't gone by quite that fast.
I never played that one, but I remember the double boss fight at the end of FF Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift (I think it was that Illua lady and then some weird monster thing after you beat her??) was really difficult and I'm not sure I ever actually finished the game because of it 😅
Your quest will be endless. This is the first and only thing I thought of when reading the title of this video, how it wasn't included is criminal. I lost 30 hours to that fucker because I didn't have a second save.
To me the worst part of Persona 5 is Morgana constantly telling you to get some rest. I know that the protagonist will have to go to sleep even if Morgana isn't there to remind you but the fact that he constantly does, even on days where you didn't really do anything, really pissed me off. Before Yusuke joined the party every time i fought a weak enemy i got at least one attack on that little shit.
It says it all that Atlus realised how players were getting so PO'd with Morgana saying "Don't play the game, get some sleep" at regular intervals and literally not letting you play the game that they made a t-shirt of it that makes Morgana look like Monokuma from Danganronpa
That's true, but a lot of people also doesn't think about it/doesn't know. Hell, even shiny hunters let it happen. Nuzlockers are a small minority in this matter, and most of it is just forgetting/not thinking about it. I always keep my master ball in case of something like that, or a shiny legendary who refuse to cooperate
I hate that this one line can make people hate the game, there is way more fucked up moments in the game and that’s one reason why that makes the game great ,it really is a good game and I hope that people can actually see the greatness of the jrpg, also I say great a lot.
This is probably my favorite type of list videos y’all do. The personal experience kind. All videos y’all do are great, don’t get me wrong. I just really like the addition of these.
24:20 I had this with Octopath traveller! There's a secret hidden Final Boss, which requires solving several sidequests. No biggie. So you get to the secret Final Area, where you beat 8 "ghost" bosses, which are dark versions of bosses you fought before. EIGHT. There is no save point in the final area. These bosses aren't really HARD per se, for a later stage level party, well equipped and all. But then you get to the final final boss. A sequential. Final boss. Which takes so long, and is so hard, I fought it for 45 minutes and I died. I loaded back up; outside. All eight-- EIGHTS of them - Ghost bosses still alive. It takes a good 10 minutes a boss, I'd say. All of my desire to beat the secret Final Boss immediately sapped, I never bothered again. I took up gardening.
As someone who played the demo multiple times around when we first got our Switch, I wanted to 100% complete the game (cuz I'm a masochist apparently) and now that you said it... Maybe nevermind.
I haven't put myself through it yet, but I've heard that the Pantheon of Hollownest from Hollow Knight is that, but with 30-some bosses in a row, which includes every boss in the game, plus several Pantheon-exclusive bosses, in a notoriously difficult game. I think it has a 0.3% completion on Steam. Whenever I get the game, I'm going to torture myself with it.
So in the SNES game Breath of Fire, you will find yourself in a dreamland. To get out of dreamland you have to climb to the top of a tower. That tower has a maze on every floor. The maze has walls that will go invisible. Have fun.
My mom and I love playing video games together, and some of our favourite levels in the games we've played have been tricky mazes - she'll write directions and notes down, and help direct me, and i'll help her notice stuff that may be helpful. We accidentally cheese quite a few things, and it's very common in our current game (Fenyx Rising). It's also how my parents bonded in high school - my dad would man the controller in the original loz, and my mom would man the brain xD (the first game we played together was botw) My point is: recruiting some extra brainpower for maze levels may benefit you, as well as add some fun c:
Jane: "It may have just been me who fell off the blood tightrope and heard this horrible baby scream" OH NO YOU WERE NOT JANE. That screaming child's voice and constant falling off still haunts my dreams.
Jane.... I'm sorry to be the one to tell you... but it wasn't a blood rope... let's just say it's related to the baby... 😷😷😷😷 but this segment made sick too...
I feel that Luke is justified about Yusuke. Like, just previously, the gang dealt with a teacher who preyed upon Ann, and then suddenly her teammates are convincing her to go along with Yusuke's blackmail? He literally blackmails to call the police on the 2 dudes if Ann doesn't comply with the nude painting. That's sexual harassment. And don't forget, these guys are minors. I can honestly see why people would be put off with this. Personally, as much as I was irritated with this, I still enjoyed the game for what it was worth.
Yeah, it's really offputting with Yusuke at the start. The thing is though that I love Yusuke as a character later on. It's just sad that you need to kind of brush aside him blackmailing a teenager into modeling nude before you can really get into his character.
The thing is Yusuke honestly just trying to paint her he's not just making up excuses to see her naked. it kind of lacks the sexual nature of it to be sexual harassment although that doesn't make it any better for Ann.
It's just a horrible, horrible piece of writing. It's obviously being played for laughs, but it's extremely in bad taste especially when considering the previous dungeon. I could get through it because for me it was an obviously poor attempt at humor/fan service, but it did taint my vision of the game and made me super aware of their poor taste jokes and fanservice later on. That was one of the few things that deeply disappointed me in Persona 5
I dont want to spoil the game but If he actually finished the game he would see how all party members had to put something on the line in the different parts of the game so asking Ann to stall for a few minutes while Morgana pick-locks a door wasn't exactly dangerous. and he would have seen that is this game just because someone is acting valiantly and polite and all that good stuff doesn't make them good people and vice versa. The whole game is a redemption tale about a group of young people escaping the influence of "shitty" adults who's trying to turn them into their own image and almost succeeding and Yusuke is no different.
@TheBAGman17 It really doesn't matter that he "just" wanted to paint her. He could have painted her with her fucking clothes on. He was irredeemable after that. No matter how likeable they tried to make him.
It's a shame that Yusuke was the breaking point. Some of the best conversational moments are centered around Yusuke later on, between him with Futaba, the two lobsters, he's great.
Oh my god!! , I've played blacks ops twice and I've never done anything with those napalm barrels. No interaction whatsoever. I just ran down the hill and killed the guys until they gave me another checkpoint . Mind is definitely blown...
Me too, my friend and I never even noticed the barrels. We shot the hell outta everyone until we got low on ammo, then figured we were supposed to just push closer. Once we did, it checkpointed and we moved on. =p
If I'm not mistaken, you could just turn on subtitles. But that is also something you need to know in advance because most people have turned them off because it's mostly distracting and rarely useful.
My understanding is that the game flat-out cheats. If the player is doing well in a mission, it will just lie, subtracting a large amount from the (correctly calculated) hit chances.
Dude! I did the exact same thing. Someone told me it was Fire Emblem with guns and I LOVE Fire Emblem games all the way back to the NES ports (I’m so old). Gave up after 2 hours because this happened to me TWICE.
I've only had it once. XCOM Enemy Unknown. Sniper fired at a Muton. 100% chance. Miss. It's extremely unlikely to happen since it's only 0.4% or lower chance to miss, but it happens. I've never seen the game cheat... Well, except once. Again in Enemy Unknown. Go into a Crashed UFO. One of the big ones. Figure I'll use my B-Team for it, which included one of the robots (cannot remember the name since it's been so long). Robot scouts ahead (since i don't care if it dies) start outside the cargo hold (normally start at other end), robot goes inside. Literally 5 pods of aliens sitting in that room. If it had been my A-Team, i would have reloaded and said fuck you XCOM. But, this was my B-Team, so i figured i'd see how it went. Somehow, only 1 guy and the robot died (the others were also very injured, but B-Team so doesn't really matter). I also used the combat stims for the first time, and they carried me through that fight, my assault guy just taking like 4 shots to the face from Mutons and was fine in a week.
And technically a Police Action. It was not declared a war with declaration by the Congress. Congress hasn't declared wars since WWII, unless you count the war on abstracts ... Poverty, Drugs, and Terror ....
Dude Lmao Aleainctaest So basically the war on anything that isn’t agreeing with the US? No, just stating a Fact. There is much that is being done that should not be done as it is transpiring. Otherwise they would follow precedent and legality to do what should be done instead of obfuscating and hiding behind illegal actions. For any law or action to be legal in the USA it must abide by the Constitution. There were major limits set upon the government in the powers it held. These have been blurred and broken with compliance and false belief it is legal because they claim it is so ... Always use the proper words for something. Even if it is unpopular.
For me, it's something that Valve loved: that moment in a Half-Life game where they lock you in a room, full of instant-death lasers and enemies that jump at your face, and expect you to do first-person platforming as Gordon Freeman, who let's be honest handles like a rocket-powered brick on a greased floor. Dude does NOT stop on a dime. And there's always an NPC who tells you they're not doing that, but you have to. That segment in Half-Life 2 had me ragequit the game and not go back to it for seven years.
I think it was HL2 episode 2 near the end with a rocket launcher, where you have to shoot bombs onto the striders, then swap weapon and shoot again to detonate - I took a loooong break, before I came back and completed it on easy. It was sooo annoying. Badass enemies on the ground pestering you - and I think there was a timer. Been a while... ;)
OK so I was playing this game where you had to work front desk at a B&B, but then it took a sharp plot twist and I spent most of my playtime ironing bedsheets in the basement laundry room. I said, “Screw this!”, set the controller down, and quit... Oh wait, that was my job, not a game 😅
I loved Luke's answer because, as much as I grew to like Yusuke after that frankly terrible impression, it was still super weird and utterly out of touch with the rest of the story? Like Persona 5 is a story driven JRPG with a lot of emphasis on societal injustice and real world treatment of children especially in Japan (e.g. Goro being born out of wedlock, the Protagonist being framed etc) so it comes across as MASSIVELY hypocritical that their first Palace is about a teacher using his position of power to sexually harass school girls, and then Yusuke comes along and does something similar but it's treated as a hilarious character gag. Because trying to blackmail an underage girl into stripping for a portrait that's likely going to be displayed publicly is just Yusuke being quirky! Of course he's not interested in Ann sexually! But he does want her to erase her dignity and ability to properly give consent by forcefully putting her in a position of intense vulnerability with a stranger who doesn't see her as a human being. But it's not harassment! Also, not to be wild, but if any of you butter-brained fuckers try to bring up anything about the age of consent and how Ann technically isn't underage, I will climb through your windows and stab you in the kneecaps. *EDIT:* I'm going to be wild here, but some of ya'll need to learn that you can like a character and still acknowledge that they were wrong, especially if your defense is just "well Yusuke isn't attracted to Ann so it's not that creepy". I'm not attracted to men but if I stalked a stranger, then tried to blackmail him into getting naked alone so I could sell a painting of him, I'd be fucking gross. Furthermore, some of you need to actually research that age of consent nonsense and stop quoting that its 13 because you saw someone say it once and never actually verified it.
Absolutely. Of age or not, it's still creepy when the dude is forceful like that. Sympathizing with him feels like trying to sympathize with Edward Cullen from Twilight to me.
@@pickedceasar1216 Its hard to give redemption to those kinds of people in real life right? Fair to say? So why would I give redemption to a fake character that was crafted by a team of people who are trying tomlm profit of of a product (Granted, they are making an art product that they love to work on, but it's still a product they are trying to sell me). I'm merely pointing out that there are REAL people who I struggle to forgive for actual sexual assault. I might not want to spend my time playing a game where I have to forgive this kind of person for "fun". I think that's fair
My roommate played through Resident Evil Veronica about a year ago. And by "played through" I mean he got to the final boss, had one save point before it, and literally ran out of ammo during the boss fight no matter what he did. Maybe there's some special method to beat it, or like a time-out mechanic or something. But to this day we do not know, and he absolutely no longer cares. He checked out of that ending, hard.
@@mr.e9502 The problem isnt that its dark, its the weird hypocritical quirky way they handle it afterwards imo, stuff like this can be handled well in art - sadly wasnt done here
@@adrianjem7188 first impressions are important and personally all his antics later seemed artificial just stemming from his writers intent and i couldn't shake off that even after some time he himself seemed to not possibly be capable of anything that opposed that intial character of him,anything nice about him seemed like it was written for a different better character with no bridge in middle to connect to the weird first one, there just wasn't much acknowledgement by the game or himself that he was acting like a creep and that it was just anything more than woaah!, he's quirky and weird. so most jokes centered on him and his supposed-to-be funny crush on ann fell flat on my face. i guess i could have managed to come to like him even still, but it never happened. i do agree that he does show redeeming features but i didn't feel that it was actually his old character that was redeemed or that his redeeming features felt earned, so it never managed to cancel out to me, though i'm sure there are loads of people who managed to fall in love with with and i also really think thats great, this was just my experience.
Never understood why people found that mission hard..I love Vice City and so have played it multiple times and that mission never gave me problems..Following the train in SA is harder

In kingdom hearts, if you use guard when Ansem charges like he does instead of dodge roll, not only will it block the attack, but with the counter attack skill, you can follow up into a combo.
Similarly to Ellen's, one moment that made me stop playing was in one of the old Avatar the Last Airbender video games. The final boss has two stages, and you can't use any healing items in the second phase. I could have easily beaten it with just one heal, and knowing that and being unable to beat it frustrated me so much that I never finished the game.
for me it was Modern Warfare 2 on Veteran mode during the "Loose End" Mission. at the end of the level you have to run through a sparse field with enemies both in-front of you and behind while getting shelled my mortars. while tough in its own right my game decided to place the checkpoint as your ally Ghost said the line "They're bracketing our position with mortars!" so every time i died i got to hear that line over and over and over again to the point of insanity, then after several hours of this i make it to the end where (Spoilers) you get killed off in a cutscene (end Spoilers). needless to say i was so livid that i had to go break something in frustration.
Sir Roderick Quincy von thunderbottom, the Magnificent high king of Australia this was me but I would get stuck in the mansion when the enemies started spawning from the back of the building
The thing is that in uncharted 2 you only end up in a large percent of those gun fights if you can't or won't be bothered to stealth through it. You can basically go through half the enemies if you are willing to sneak around and kill them one by one.
Yusuke does get better but MAN is his introduction rough. Not only does he want to paint Ann nude while she's clearly uncomfortable with it, this all comes right after Kamoshida's dungeon, who was a HORRIFIC creepazoid to Ann. It's just weird that the game doesn't give you any option to go "Hey maybe we shouldn't force her to do this, huh?"
What? The gang is there to make sure yusuke doesn't do anything so the option of don't force her was already there he only says Ann has to do it because of Ryuji saying all that he did not mention yusuke had to do it they're multiple reasons why yusuke did what did saying that you go on with the game and saying yusuke is a creep is entirely missing the point of his character and that arc
Surprising lack of Fallout New Vegas' Dead Money DLC. Every three minutes you hear: BEEP BEEP BEEP, and start to panic trying to find the stupid radio or speaker. Revenge was sweet though.
The first time I played Dead Money I was so pissed off with it and everything about it that I didn't play New Vegas again for over six months. Only tried that crap fest of a dlc once more and still hate it with a fiery passion, and haven't played it again since. And don't get me started on the bugged out and broken final encounter with Elijah in the vault... god I hate that dlc so much.
My 'Eff This' moment came in Mass Effect 3. It's a game entirely about amassing an army to take on the imminent threat. I was playing through the Hanar mission, when I hit a point that I couldn't get into a certain room. Try as I might, I couldn't work out how to get in, and as a result the Hanar didn't join my army and it changed the ending of my game. I later discovered that the only way to get into the room is to have Kasumi in your party. I had not heard of Kasumi, so I researched and found out that she was a DLC character that you had to pay for in Mass Effect 2. So the only way to change the outcome of my Mass Effect 3 game was to go back and replay Mass Effect 2, buy the character and then replay Mass Effect 3 again. Eff That.
I remember that Max Payne part. Freaked me out too. It also made me think Max Payne was a scary game, like with ghosts or monsters or something. I would find out much later what Max Payne was really about.
Imo goofy made a decent tank Frontline if you gave him the right skills, however Donald was just an after thought, he would literally die every fight and there was no point reviving him
I remember the scream from Max Payne - if you went to a dead end in the blood trail "maze", the baby screamed in a horrifying, unnatural way until you turned around...!
I orginally thought; "Oh, I've never had a game make me peace out so hard I never returned!". But then the repressed memories started to surface. Final Fantasy XIII: around about hour 20 once I've already gone through 3 disc changes, Several grindy bosses and enough uneven story to set my hard whirrling; the game had the nerve to say "Oh, by the way, let me introduce you to free roam". Aside from the fact that the story had already reached a natural conclusion an hour back, the insult of handing me a featureless expanse of close to a quater acre and calling it a 'open world space' was enough to make me quit. It's a shame as that was my first introuduction to Final Fantasy and JRPG's in general and I could see the potential in the game style, but that experience COULD have been enough to put me of the genre and series for good. If I hadn't given the francise one last chance by picking up FF7, I might have missed on FF type-0 and FF15, all because of one bad apple in the bunch. Guess Willy Wonka was right. About the Apple thing I mean, not the whole murdering children racket he had going... that was... objectively wrong...
I'm past trying to defend FFXIII's many, many flaws to those who don't like the game (and good on you for surviving the slog that is the Palamecia chapter!!) but I just wanna ask how you felt the story had "reached a natural conclusion" when it had - if you remember of course??
@@randoMMise666 I honestly can't remember the guys name, the big God thing that the party talks about all the time. When you have the big fight against him for what I assume is only the first time. (he reeked of end boss). I realise that most of the characters were still eidolonless by this point and hadn't received emotional pathos, but by that point we'd already gone through the 3 act ringer and I was honestly just hoping the game would just go "we're out, come back for 13-2!" Maybe I'll go back one day and finish what I started but honestly now with the tales series, Ni No Kuni and Shin Megami Tensei at my disposal I'm really split for choice JRPG wise.
Oh fair, I thought you meant the story had seemingly come to a conclusion, as opposed to the game feeling finished. I found your experience interesting since I usually read that people find they enjoy the game more once it opens up and you have full control of party members. I can appreciate feeling tired of the game by the end of Chapter 10 though since it and Chapter 9 are both too long with little enemy variety. I will say if you can stomach those sections again, you may find the second half of the game far more enjoyable as the challenge ramps up, and you have more flexibility in combat :)
Only game I can think of where I had a serious "screw this" reaction was the Gameboy Pocket Aliens. 1: limited ammo, unlimited enemies, 2: map transitions where you can get spawn camped, 3: you need to do a lot of running around to find key items, 4: I still have no idea how to do the puzzle to unlock the final boss.
I don't remember much about the game other than the fact that I also stopped playing the game after reaching the more open area. It didn't make me actively go "Eff this game", but I had other things going on at the time and just sorta lost any feeling to continue.
He still only says "Those barrels, they have napalm in them?" or something along those lines and they really just failed the gameplay design in that mission.
I never realized that after playing through multiple times. Always wondered why that section was so damn difficult to get down the hill and trigger the next section.
Joe H Me, too. It took me three or four times playing through the campaign on that game (because I just really enjoyed the single player stuff in Black Ops 1) to realize, "Hey! I've been doing this wrong! Wow, it was WAAAY easier when you do it the right way!" Lol I felt dumb.
I had a huge fear of video game spiders so when being introduced to them in Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly or some shit I instantly was traumatized and never played it again. Only got over this fear after quitting Skyrim (due to obvious arachnid reasons) and realizing how much I loved the game so after braving it out I got used to them. Still hate the slow motion kills that zoom into them though.
In Bully, when you have to beat the high score on the arcade machine to impress the nerds. I was just so bad at that and had to do it so many times I just got sick of the whole thing.
Don’t care. It was so infuriatingly awful, I couldn’t stand to keep playing. Eff this game! And maybe I had just dealt with OC Loc, and effing hell, the crap just kept piling on.
Oh i always dreaded that mission every time i go to replay GTA SA. Especially when it has to be done as a side mission for 100% That's going to be a nightmare.
I only played it on pc and generally like flying sequences, so I finished the rc plane missions on my 3rd try. It were the motor chases I hated, especially the one with OG Loc, I kept losing balance and falling.
This is where it’s advantageous to be “poor” and only be able to get a new game a couple times a year, like I was back then. When you don’t really have anything else to play, and you have no social life to speak of, you develop the ability to transcend the rage quit and just grind through it in a zen-like trance.
When I played, I was TERRIBLE at dodging, but there’s a way around it. Get your stamina bar at max level, get some two handed weapons, and when Thunder Blight Ganon teleports, start spin attacking and moving around while spinning with your weapon. You’ll still get hit, but it gives you a higher chance of landing some hits. That’s how I defeated him.
The Lord of The Rings: The Fellowship The Ring on PS2. You start in The Shire and have to escape from the Ring Wraiths without them spotting you in the middle of the night in a stealth section. My brother and I probably played that section on and off for literally 2 years and never once got passed them. To this day, I have no idea what happens in that game after that introduction level. Fuck. That. Part.
ShellShock794 The game doesn't get much better after you escape the Shire. A little less finicky and I don't recall any more instant failures but it's still extremely dull.
I got past that bit, but ended up quitting and never finishing the game later on. Fighting said ringwraiths at Amon Hen, the only way to win seemed to be filling them with arrows, but everytime you died your inventory remained fixed. So all the arrows you used started to dwindle until you only could use a sword and it became impossible.
its not that hard of a section but i get what happened to you that is one moment in the game that needs handholding. as the devs do not let you know what to do or where to go properly i remember failing this part over and over as well, but i also remember that it was actually really damn easy once you found out how to beat it
Yeah in clustered noise games such as shooters I don't understand why you wouldn't want subtitles. Sure he did mention immersion but...he missed out on a lot of the game due to unnecessary frustration. 😯 Then again I can read well with my peripherals so it doesn't ever really distract me, and it occurs to me that not everyone can do that.
I just turn the subtitles on cause I can't do anything in my house without being screamed at for being too loud. Meanwhile they wake me up at 5am every goddamn day yelling at each other from across the house. Or are the first to yell at me for being too loud cause they missed half a syllable of their show (with subtitles on) because I opened the fridge door.
What made me go "Eff this game" to Friday that 13th is when I'm doing the missions (because I didn't feel like doing the multiplayer stuff) was redoing missions (because I'm being a perfectionist) and I have to watch the introductory scene IN FULL, EVERY SINGLE TIME. I couldn't stand it. Then there's the achievements being "play this game several thousand hours!" and I just went "nope".
Oh dear god, amnesia. I have schizophrenia, and when I'm tired or upset I would start seeing shadows trying to either grab at me or something similar. My paranoia would also shot through the roof, my head would also sometimes feel like Its swimming while I walk. It's hard to explain. So, when my characters vision started blurring, and stuff started appearing more vividly I noped out of there. It was even worse 'cause my mind tried to show me things even when the game was quiet. So, yea, I honestly never got to even see the monsters of the game, and while I HAVE tried playing the game I can never get past the first thirty minutes. It's just too damn real.
Ahhh Yusuke. It’s a bummer they went so creepy with him on his recruitment mission. Doing his social link, you realize he’s actually not interested in romance or sex at all; he’s single-mindedly focused on art and has very little grasp on social that the MC has to steer him away from putting himself in bad situations because of this lack of awareness. The writers made a bad choice making him so focused on Ann, considering the team JUST beat the teacher who was pressuring Ann sexually and was implied to have sexually abused her best freiend. Bad, tone-deaf choice
That really got me. They spent her whole arc showing how awful the experience was and how damaging his actions were to her, and then turn around and have her friends pressure her into agreeing to the painting. Like how can you not see a problem with that as a game developer? It also felt really weird for all of them because they generally in the game don't push for something if the person is uncomfortable, so it felt like they weren't taking her discomfort seriously at all.
Honestly several of the ways the game handled Ann made me incredibly uncomfortable. 😩
@@bishielurfer Honestly, Atlus has a pretty bad track record when it comes to women and minorities. Persona 3 and Persona 4 both have scenes that are pure agony to sit through if you're trans and realize the implication. Naoto's entire character arc is basically "Transitioning bad".
@@dragonslair951167 why do people keep incorrectly saying this?!
Her arc relates to societal expectations regarding gender. Yes, that isn't necessarily totally divorced from Trans issues faced (Had a trans ex), but it also isn't as close to it as people think.
The simple and obvious message is "Some genders have societal barriers when there should be none" , so she pretended to be a male to get the chance to do the thing she should have been able to do in the first place.
It reads more like a sad necessity rather than dysphoria, which disqualifies Trans stuff for me. Not all Trans people have dysphoria, but it is a *powerful* motivator to go through the process to GRS.
@@chillnagasden6190 Why is this the hill that Persona fans choose to die on? How many times am I, a non-binary, going to be lectured by cis folks about how a person assigned female at birth who dresses as a man, doesn't correct people who refer to them as a man, fantasizes about being a male character, is consistently uncomfortable doing almost anything traditionally feminine, and has an entire mind palace dedicated to their overwhelming desire to undergo gender reassignment surgery, couldn't possibly be interpreted as trans?
Naoto's entire character arc is half a dozen transphobic stereotypes all rolled into one. A person who "Just needs to accept themselves" instead of getting surgery. A person who is getting gender reassignment surgery for the purpose of gaining social status. Whose desire to get gender reassignment surgery is portrayed as irrational and reckless. And who gets lectured halfway through about how their sex is immutable and unchangeable.
@@dragonslair951167 Additionally,
1)There is no hill. This is not a fight. This is a statement of *fact*.
2)Me happening to be Cis does not invalidate reality and facts.
3)But you jumping to the whole "oh Cis" immediately shows the bad faith tired shit that means you were never honest to begin with.
4)Well done ignoring the fact that I used to date a trans person. I guess it was more convenient to leave that out of the reply you made because some people like you are bad at English and reading comprehension and decided to conjure up a story , and it would undermined that desperate clinging?
IDK. Don't bother replying.

@Sean H You’d be surprised by how long a script can be and I never It was bad I just said it seems scripted.
The main thing that makes me not finish games is entirely my own fault: When it comes to big RPGs like Skyrim, The Witcher III, etc, I do so many side quests and exploring that I burn myself out and never progress the story (or I don't finish for a very long time because I keep needing to step away for a while).
I forget what the main quest was and at a certain point the process of making my way back to it is way too convoluted. Especially if the quest log says something vague and I was already several steps in and I'd have to backtrack. It's game over.
Yeah that's my problem too
yeah, oblivion/morrowind both beat the main game when the expansion came out hehe.
I've found that I have 3 stages of a open world game.
stage 1 explore everything I find
stage 2 find something I want to collect or do and focus on that
stage 3 four months later realize HOLY SHIT I still haven't beaten then and rush through the end hehe :>
Opposite for me most of the time, I do so little side quests and avoid fighting to the point I’m at a required boss and I’m dying bc I’m using the gear I picked up 5 seconds ago
I tend to find one aspect of the game i lile that isnt really related to the main quest , and i do that tnen feel lost when i complete it. Like in skyrkm i enjoy building houses with tbe heartfire dlc, and when i finish i stop playing for months.
The napalm situation is why you always put on subtitles, that way you can hear whispered conversations 20 metres away, which is amazing
I do this automatically on all games I play for this reason.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who does or thought this
@rohuffgamingakawisteria6578 Yeah our fellow wise men can be hard to find but we're here somewhere. I can't imagine playing without subtitles at this point
Literally thought the same thing, people always complain about not hearing instructions in games but never bother turning on subtitles

No one tell her that there were 7 more phases to the Ansem fight. I told my sister that when she was fighting him AFTER she already beat the second ansem part and she just laid on the floor saying oh god over and over
After the second guardian fight, it's only one more stage, where are you getting 7?
Island garudian, dark sora 2.0, Heartless bubble guardian (the solo stage she talks about), the world core stage
@@valdenay7264 The World of Chaos is actually split into multiple phases. One where you fight Ansem's part, one where you fight a wave of heartless, where you fight some tentacle cannon thingies, another wave of heartless, a massive head, ANOTHER wave of heartless, the core of it, and then Ansem again. That's 8 Phases and I may have even forgotten some. Fortunately some of the phases can be pretty quick depending how you go about them and hiw good you are at the game, though.
Ansem from Kingdom hearts actually has more stages after the one Ellen quit at. He really is the Dragon Ball Z villain of Kingdom hearts.
What bothers me is that those fights are actually pretty damn easy.

Resident evil taught me the value of dividing my weapons in tiers and ranking what enemies are worth what ammo. Code Veronica was my introduction to RE so I learned this lesson in the same way with the tyrant fight. Only difference is Final Fantasy taught me years ago that I should play with at least a good 2-4 save files.

My younger brother lost like a dozen times and after I got tired of laughing at him I offered to try it myself, and he just wanted to see me fail for a while so he let me. And I did fail. Once. I spent the whole first attempt learning the buttons, and beat him on the second try. My brother has still never forgiven me for that and it must've been 16 years ago this happened.
Joey I wouldn’t forgive you either because Ansem whooped my ass a million times and it took a million hours and tears and a thousand boss battles for me to win. ONLY TO BE SEPARATED FROM KAIRI.
Kingdom Hearts was the first game I ever beat By Myself without any help with from my brother... Kingdom Hearts 2 was the second. However during the last cut scene my mom called and I had to walk away to answer. That means I had to go through the last fight over again to watch it (or at least I thought so, I never searched to see if they saved). I got stuck in THE GREAT WHITE FUCK OFF ROOM. I had already beat it once, but I couldn’t get through it again. So I handed to controller to my brother (who had never played it before ever) and he neatly beat it for me in one go.
@Jordan Spencer dance water dance
@Jordan Spencer Wuut he's like the easiest guy, did him in the first go. I beat every single member of org 13 expect for Marluxia (#11, pink hair, scythe) it was literally impossible.

My own "eff this" moment was the end of the first time I played Persona 3. It was two in the morning, and I was really hyped to see how it all ended. Epic boss battle, forty-something minutes in, I get it down to half health, and then it fires off a super attack that inflicts random status conditions on my party.
It charmed Yukari.
Who then, before I could take an action again, HEALED IT UP TO FULL.
I was just so demoralised I turned the console off right then and didn't even retry it for another few days.

@@300IQPrower I've got another one--the final boss of the Doom Eternal DLC.

Ya Ellen, you didn’t have Goofy to help you, but Donald was doing what he always did in Kingdom Hearts! He stood there not healing you!
My problem was that he was using up all his magic offensively before I was injured enough to warrant a healing, and before he could build his MP back up, Goofy would have somehow gotten more hurt than me, so Donald would heal him instead. I don't let him hold ethers either, they're too rare in the early game and he just uses up what I give him in one fight. Eventually I starting shoving Goofy's pockets full of standard potions while I carried two ethers, two hi-potions, an elixer and a mega-potion, all of which were reserved until *I* decided we needed them. Once Goofy runs out of potions, which will be obvious trust me, *then* Donald can have an ether, and I'll replenish my pockets once out of combat 👍
RecklessRex ya I would just run around and spam healing lol
RecklessRex It's times like that that you wish MP Gift from KH1 was still a thing-
So true.....so true
I'm pretty sure I spent most of my time on Kingdom Hearts healing Donald and Goofy constantly during the last fight. I got MP that quickly, I would just basically spam cure whilst them 2 dealt offense.
The most famous one of these has to be in the final battle of Mega Man when you can get past the last save point with no bubbles, which leaves you with no way to beat the final boss as you can only hurt him with bubbles. There is no way to go back to a previous save so you can't beat the game.
I feel Ellen, teenage me got SOOO good at killing the Shadow for this exact reason. And yes, it WAS worse not being able to skip cutscenes

Andy encapsulates all our feelings about Yusuke with the simple sentence of “What the fuck?”
idk, hes the best thing that was in Persona 5. plus he has no sexual interest in Ann.
I like Yusuke. He’s awkward and weird, but he’s still a nice guy. And he’s a great party member. A bit squishy, but does awesome damage numbers.
@@vault29a i mean, yes, buy that hardly makes his introduction less problematic given, as luke said, ann was very much not involved in his nude painting consensually. Yusuke is a lot better once you get past his introduction but it's still not a great introduction, especially given that ann was already a victim of sexual harassment by kamoshida
@@vault29a Doesn't make him not super creepy
@jamesherb4384 except he never really intended to do the nude painting in the first place. He only said that to get the phantom thieves to leave him alone. He didn't actually think they would agree to it.
I rage quit the first Max Payne over the “escape the fire” sequence. I tried so many times. Add to the difficulty the fact that every death forces you to watch an unskippable cutscene, and the fact that there is a giant glass but somehow unbreakable window right where you start, and I never did finish….
The parts where you have to follow an invisible line in total darkness was my breaking point
Psychonauts. During the meat circus when you have to climb up the flaming circular wire cage with imprecise controls and an unmovable camera angle and water rising below you threatening to kill you if you take too long. It was the end of the game and I said, "you know what? i did enough."
Pretty sure that's the last part of that game I remember too. Maybe it was actually the end?

Andy: Are they high school students?
Luke: Well.... yes.
Andy: What the F***!
Correction : they are JAPANESE high school students ! That's a completely different thing
Thomas Regnart objection: though JP’s age of consent is lower than other Western countries, sexual harassment is still universal. High school? Office lady? Elderly? She said no, son, back the fuck up.
When Andy asked this, I thought Luke was going to answer: JAPAN! Not as a justification, but as a way of explaining it's a game made by the mentally impaired.
Did she say no though? I think that the dialogue is a bit iffy, but basically Yosuke wants to call the police because they are on the property on false pretences if they don't either consent or leave.
It is an odd scene however, and it makes me wonder if the writers of Persona 5 know any models because it is very common for models to bring friends along to avoid unwanted behaviour.
Iain Perkins Saying "no" isn't always an option safely available - especially when your friends are pressuring you to go along with something & you are but a wee teenybop. Always look for an explicit "yes" and if that doesn't happen then back off. If you're teaming up - for an art project, espionage, ambushes, infiltration - you've got to respect your team. Everyone's on board or you find another way everyone can work with.

@@TheSnKoh Also Dead Space, I remember doing well in the game even on challenging difficulty because I focused on killing every enemy as efficiently as possible.

Anyway, it's fine if you're heavy into maximizer/efficiency tendencies but most people aren't so....
I'm almost positive I got through that COD level without knowing about the 'stab the barrel' trick. After an hour or so of playing like you described, I just got pissed and charged down into the trench, and the level proceeded.
I did the same thing..
I think I just did it. I might have had subtitles on.
I definitely don’t remember the barrel thing, I just charged down the hill
At the end of the original Link's Awakening, the last boss starts with a blob phase. My two siblings and I couldn't figure out what to do to it, none of our items would work, so we just kept swinging at it with everything we had. After like... thirty minutes, it transformed! Yay, we did it! In reality, you're supposed to hit it with magic powder, which we did try, we just sucked at the timing and got no confirmation that was the correct thing to do, so we stopped trying. I'm just really glad the devs put in some sort of failsafe to move the fight along, or we would have given up.
I really like the added background music for ambience during each of the game's entries. Nice little attention to detail.
There's a reason I put subtitles on in COD games, to avoid these confusing times
Kaitlyn Garner I just never did the barrels and ended up making it through the sequence somehow
If you go all the way down the hill there is a checkpoint that progresses it forward, I didn't do the barrels either , I just ran...
ya see i always do that for any game so i hade no ishues at all tbh this whole list ik its there exsperences but i dont relate at all to any sure anoying but iv never just quite a game and never stoped and had to come back enless it was just a fight i couldent win and was actually to weak to beat at that point (like in one game i foucuesed on upgradeing just on party member then um ya eventually that one op member wasent anuf for a fight and i needed 2 go back so ya) and some games you cant do that its go back and farm not even worth it enimes or thats not even a option and your stuck there and have to go back before you entered to farm or do something diffrent

Tbh I like japan a lot, but these things have put me off from some works so hard that I'm currently purging myself from them. One of the worst was a manga about real martial arts, alright, and then they beat up this bad guy and they proceed to add him to the team... What was his thing? He was a literal rapist, "but don't worry, he only raped guys!"... W t f Japan, they tried to play it as if it should be ignored or taken as a joke because he liked to force his penis into other men he subdued with martial arts and I had to just accept that? Not even close to cool, fully dropped that manga (it wasn't a hentai nor anything like that so it really was a disappointing curve ball)
My point is that Japan sometimes is cool, but a lot of other times they really need to talk to a counselor or something because holy f.
Except he completely misinterpreted the character though. Yusuke is asexual and isn't painting Ann to be a pervert. He says her beauty reminds him of a painting he is inspired by as an artist, and wants to capture that feeling himself.
@@basicoptimalmouse asexual (that's canon?) or not, the intent was unclear and came off creepy.
@@basicoptimalmouse first off, Yusuke being asxesual is nothing but a fan theory. second, that hardly changes the fact that ann was clearly not interested, and that Yusuke 100% blackmailed her into compliance by threatening to get the police involved. Luke completely understood what was happening at that specific moment, even if it wasn't ultimately a testament to Yusuke's actual character
@@basicoptimalmouse hard to misinterprete a character who threatened blackmail if he couldn't paint a naked minor
I quit Catherine hard after it became apparent that Vincent could solve his problems easily by simply talking to Katherine or being assertive with Catherine, but instead decided to be a coward. Then the Bride was sufficiently difficult that trying to beat her wasn't worth the effort to continue watching Vincent refuse to deal with his problems.
OH MY GOD YES. Vincent was such a tool.
Wasn't Catherine like a demon or something? It looked easy for him to get out of that situation, but it sure wasn't.
Part of the deal with Catherine is that the player ultimately makes Vincent's choice or not-quite-choice for him along the spectrum of chaos and order. But dang, watching Vincent either space out or wet himself with terror throughout the game got old fast.
I loved that game. It wouldn't be a game if Vincent started off as a brave staunch individual. It was about the journey to make him a better man.
Not every game should be about a bad ass character who makes all the right decisions. If Dante or Master Chief were the main character type of every game that would be boring. Character development makes me feel accomplished.
The problem solving was a blast. I can't wait to get the New Catherine remastered that's coming out. Though to be honest I do agree with you at times Vincent being such a coward bugged me, but he got it together by the end.
Any assassin's creed eaves dropping/tailing mission ever. They are so tedious but the most egregious was in black flag when you had to stealth follow a ship, in another ship.
Stealth following the ship wasn’t really that hard... I just did that the other day after revisiting the game
More than how hard it can be, it's mostly how stupid ship stealth is.
God yes. I'm playing Syndicate atm and every time the little "tail" icon pops up I quit for a few days. SO annoying and so badly done, really. Trying to stay at X distance while not being spotted but not losing the target. Rage.
Then I forget why I stopped playing, load it up and go "OH EFF EFF ESS"
Yes but that ACV level was soooo cool looking!
To be fair, as with the melee combat, tailing is one thing from post-Ezio AC that Syndicate kind-of fixed so it's kind-of not total bullshit. Although I seem to recall that Syndicate seriously breaks AC lore about Assassin running speed by having fat old ladies that you "tail" by sprinting after them and never catch up.

I completed that game when it was new - I don't remember that fight at all. I don't even remember that character.

To me the worst part of Persona 5 is Morgana constantly telling you to get some rest.

I had this with Octopath traveller! There's a secret hidden Final Boss, which requires solving several sidequests. No biggie. So you get to the secret Final Area, where you beat 8 "ghost" bosses, which are dark versions of bosses you fought before. EIGHT.
There is no save point in the final area. These bosses aren't really HARD per se, for a later stage level party, well equipped and all.
But then you get to the final final boss.
A sequential.
Final boss.
Which takes so long, and is so hard, I fought it for 45 minutes and I died.
I loaded back up; outside. All eight-- EIGHTS of them - Ghost bosses still alive. It takes a good 10 minutes a boss, I'd say. All of my desire to beat the secret Final Boss immediately sapped, I never bothered again.
I took up gardening.
As someone who played the demo multiple times around when we first got our Switch, I wanted to 100% complete the game (cuz I'm a masochist apparently) and now that you said it... Maybe nevermind.
You just described my biggest complaint about the first two Kingdom Hearts games!
Those lengthy boss battles, and no saves between them!
Exactly what happened to me lmao, I beat the 8 bosses, no problem, had a good setup. Then died immediately to the final boss and noped out.
I haven't put myself through it yet, but I've heard that the Pantheon of Hollownest from Hollow Knight is that, but with 30-some bosses in a row, which includes every boss in the game, plus several Pantheon-exclusive bosses, in a notoriously difficult game. I think it has a 0.3% completion on Steam. Whenever I get the game, I'm going to torture myself with it.
Don't forget the 4 secret bosses that unlock 4 classes
So in the SNES game Breath of Fire, you will find yourself in a dreamland. To get out of dreamland you have to climb to the top of a tower. That tower has a maze on every floor. The maze has walls that will go invisible. Have fun.
oh, AND there's a segment where the entire floor SPINS AROUND!
My mom and I love playing video games together, and some of our favourite levels in the games we've played have been tricky mazes - she'll write directions and notes down, and help direct me, and i'll help her notice stuff that may be helpful.
We accidentally cheese quite a few things, and it's very common in our current game (Fenyx Rising).
It's also how my parents bonded in high school - my dad would man the controller in the original loz, and my mom would man the brain xD (the first game we played together was botw)
My point is: recruiting some extra brainpower for maze levels may benefit you, as well as add some fun c:
Ugh... thanks for reminding me that I am still stuck there.
Jane: "It may have just been me who fell off the blood tightrope and heard this horrible baby scream"

Dont put quotes around something unless you're saying exactly what they said. That's how a quote works.
That segment gave me PTSD and I recently replayed Max Payne 1 on my PS4 and I absolutely despise those screams.
Jane.... I'm sorry to be the one to tell you... but it wasn't a blood rope... let's just say it's related to the baby... 😷😷😷😷 but this segment made sick too...

Oh god.....
Why did you have to write that?? Jane already woke my PTSD from so many years ago and now it's worse than ever :(
Hell no!
Shouldn't have read this comment immediately after lunch
I feel that Luke is justified about Yusuke. Like, just previously, the gang dealt with a teacher who preyed upon Ann, and then suddenly her teammates are convincing her to go along with Yusuke's blackmail? He literally blackmails to call the police on the 2 dudes if Ann doesn't comply with the nude painting. That's sexual harassment. And don't forget, these guys are minors. I can honestly see why people would be put off with this.
Personally, as much as I was irritated with this, I still enjoyed the game for what it was worth.
Yeah, it's really offputting with Yusuke at the start. The thing is though that I love Yusuke as a character later on. It's just sad that you need to kind of brush aside him blackmailing a teenager into modeling nude before you can really get into his character.
The thing is Yusuke honestly just trying to paint her he's not just making up excuses to see her naked. it kind of lacks the sexual nature of it to be sexual harassment although that doesn't make it any better for Ann.
It's just a horrible, horrible piece of writing. It's obviously being played for laughs, but it's extremely in bad taste especially when considering the previous dungeon. I could get through it because for me it was an obviously poor attempt at humor/fan service, but it did taint my vision of the game and made me super aware of their poor taste jokes and fanservice later on. That was one of the few things that deeply disappointed me in Persona 5
I dont want to spoil the game but If he actually finished the game he would see how all party members had to put something on the line in the different parts of the game so asking Ann to stall for a few minutes while Morgana pick-locks a door wasn't exactly dangerous. and he would have seen that is this game just because someone is acting valiantly and polite and all that good stuff doesn't make them good people and vice versa. The whole game is a redemption tale about a group of young people escaping the influence of "shitty" adults who's trying to turn them into their own image and almost succeeding and Yusuke is no different.
@TheBAGman17 It really doesn't matter that he "just" wanted to paint her. He could have painted her with her fucking clothes on. He was irredeemable after that. No matter how likeable they tried to make him.
It's a shame that Yusuke was the breaking point. Some of the best conversational moments are centered around Yusuke later on, between him with Futaba, the two lobsters, he's great.
Oh my god!! , I've played blacks ops twice and I've never done anything with those napalm barrels. No interaction whatsoever. I just ran down the hill and killed the guys until they gave me another checkpoint .
Mind is definitely blown...
Me too, my friend and I never even noticed the barrels. We shot the hell outta everyone until we got low on ammo, then figured we were supposed to just push closer. Once we did, it checkpointed and we moved on. =p

XCOM. Missing a 100% Chance Shot (The game rounds up!)
My understanding is that the game flat-out cheats. If the player is doing well in a mission, it will just lie, subtracting a large amount from the (correctly calculated) hit chances.
I've played hours on hours of xcom and never had this happen, but I absolutely believe you and am SHOOK.
Dude! I did the exact same thing. Someone told me it was Fire Emblem with guns and I LOVE Fire Emblem games all the way back to the NES ports (I’m so old). Gave up after 2 hours because this happened to me TWICE.
Well try xcom ew longwar mod on hardest difficulty with ironman on
I've only had it once. XCOM Enemy Unknown. Sniper fired at a Muton. 100% chance. Miss. It's extremely unlikely to happen since it's only 0.4% or lower chance to miss, but it happens.
I've never seen the game cheat... Well, except once. Again in Enemy Unknown. Go into a Crashed UFO. One of the big ones. Figure I'll use my B-Team for it, which included one of the robots (cannot remember the name since it's been so long). Robot scouts ahead (since i don't care if it dies) start outside the cargo hold (normally start at other end), robot goes inside. Literally 5 pods of aliens sitting in that room.
If it had been my A-Team, i would have reloaded and said fuck you XCOM. But, this was my B-Team, so i figured i'd see how it went. Somehow, only 1 guy and the robot died (the others were also very injured, but B-Team so doesn't really matter). I also used the combat stims for the first time, and they carried me through that fight, my assault guy just taking like 4 shots to the face from Mutons and was fine in a week.
"you might've heard of vietnam, it's a war"
well, technically it's also a country Mike ^^
A country known mostly for the war, though.
And the currency being called the _Dong._
And technically a Police Action. It was not declared a war with declaration by the Congress. Congress hasn't declared wars since WWII, unless you count the war on abstracts ... Poverty, Drugs, and Terror ....
Aleainctaest Fighting fire with fire will always come to bite us in the back.
Dude Lmao
Aleainctaest So basically the war on anything that isn’t agreeing with the US?
No, just stating a Fact.
There is much that is being done that should not be done as it is transpiring. Otherwise they would follow precedent and legality to do what should be done instead of obfuscating and hiding behind illegal actions. For any law or action to be legal in the USA it must abide by the Constitution.
There were major limits set upon the government in the powers it held. These have been blurred and broken with compliance and false belief it is legal because they claim it is so ...
Always use the proper words for something. Even if it is unpopular.
For me, it's something that Valve loved: that moment in a Half-Life game where they lock you in a room, full of instant-death lasers and enemies that jump at your face, and expect you to do first-person platforming as Gordon Freeman, who let's be honest handles like a rocket-powered brick on a greased floor. Dude does NOT stop on a dime. And there's always an NPC who tells you they're not doing that, but you have to. That segment in Half-Life 2 had me ragequit the game and not go back to it for seven years.
I think it was HL2 episode 2 near the end with a rocket launcher, where you have to shoot bombs onto the striders, then swap weapon and shoot again to detonate - I took a loooong break, before I came back and completed it on easy. It was sooo annoying. Badass enemies on the ground pestering you - and I think there was a timer. Been a while... ;)
I love how all the guys are so human in this video
Well, most of them are human so...
+Chris Cloete good point!
OK so I was playing this game where you had to work front desk at a B&B, but then it took a sharp plot twist and I spent most of my playtime ironing bedsheets in the basement laundry room. I said, “Screw this!”, set the controller down, and quit... Oh wait, that was my job, not a game 😅
I loved Luke's answer because, as much as I grew to like Yusuke after that frankly terrible impression, it was still super weird and utterly out of touch with the rest of the story?
Like Persona 5 is a story driven JRPG with a lot of emphasis on societal injustice and real world treatment of children especially in Japan (e.g. Goro being born out of wedlock, the Protagonist being framed etc) so it comes across as MASSIVELY hypocritical that their first Palace is about a teacher using his position of power to sexually harass school girls, and then Yusuke comes along and does something similar but it's treated as a hilarious character gag.
Because trying to blackmail an underage girl into stripping for a portrait that's likely going to be displayed publicly is just Yusuke being quirky! Of course he's not interested in Ann sexually! But he does want her to erase her dignity and ability to properly give consent by forcefully putting her in a position of intense vulnerability with a stranger who doesn't see her as a human being. But it's not harassment!
Also, not to be wild, but if any of you butter-brained fuckers try to bring up anything about the age of consent and how Ann technically isn't underage, I will climb through your windows and stab you in the kneecaps.
*EDIT:* I'm going to be wild here, but some of ya'll need to learn that you can like a character and still acknowledge that they were wrong, especially if your defense is just "well Yusuke isn't attracted to Ann so it's not that creepy". I'm not attracted to men but if I stalked a stranger, then tried to blackmail him into getting naked alone so I could sell a painting of him, I'd be fucking gross. Furthermore, some of you need to actually research that age of consent nonsense and stop quoting that its 13 because you saw someone say it once and never actually verified it.
Absolutely. Of age or not, it's still creepy when the dude is forceful like that. Sympathizing with him feels like trying to sympathize with Edward Cullen from Twilight to me.
@insanity wolf It doesn't matter; it's still blackmail.
I just don't think it's enough to make someone stop playing the game or even give the character a chance to redeem themselves.
@@pickedceasar1216
Its hard to give redemption to those kinds of people in real life right? Fair to say?
So why would I give redemption to a fake character that was crafted by a team of people who are trying tomlm profit of of a product (Granted, they are making an art product that they love to work on, but it's still a product they are trying to sell me).
I'm merely pointing out that there are REAL people who I struggle to forgive for actual sexual assault. I might not want to spend my time playing a game where I have to forgive this kind of person for "fun".
I think that's fair
Yeah, Yusuke's introduction left such a bad taste in my mouth that even after maxing his social link, I barely tolerated him.
"All you had to do was follow the damn train CJ"
My roommate played through Resident Evil Veronica about a year ago.
And by "played through" I mean he got to the final boss, had one save point before it, and literally ran out of ammo during the boss fight no matter what he did.
Maybe there's some special method to beat it, or like a time-out mechanic or something. But to this day we do not know, and he absolutely no longer cares. He checked out of that ending, hard.
" 'good' or 'popular' games". im glad that distinction was made.
"If you don't do this nude painting I'll call the police!"
That's... sexual blackmail... is that not illegal? XD
And, it’s directed towards a TEENAGER.
@@mr.e9502 The problem isnt that its dark, its the weird hypocritical quirky way they handle it afterwards imo, stuff like this can be handled well in art - sadly wasnt done here
But we’re rewarded with a memorable and funny ally with that mission
@@adrianjem7188 first impressions are important and personally all his antics later seemed artificial just stemming from his writers intent and i couldn't shake off that even after some time he himself seemed to not possibly be capable of anything that opposed that intial character of him,anything nice about him seemed like it was written for a different better character with no bridge in middle to connect to the weird first one, there just wasn't much acknowledgement by the game or himself that he was acting like a creep and that it was just anything more than woaah!, he's quirky and weird. so most jokes centered on him and his supposed-to-be funny crush on ann fell flat on my face. i guess i could have managed to come to like him even still, but it never happened. i do agree that he does show redeeming features but i didn't feel that it was actually his old character that was redeemed or that his redeeming features felt earned, so it never managed to cancel out to me, though i'm sure there are loads of people who managed to fall in love with with and i also really think thats great, this was just my experience.
@@mr.e9502 legal age in japan is 16.
GTA vice city, the RC helicopter mission
GTA San Andreas: '' All you had to do was follow the damn train CJ.'' LOL
amen
Me too :D
Never understood why people found that mission hard..I love Vice City and so have played it multiple times and that mission never gave me problems..Following the train in SA is harder
@@sirpizo555 absolutly not. The Train mission in SA is pretty easy. The controls are not shitty and there are no workers around, trying to destroy that thing.
The book-carrying reminds me of the pumpkin-carrying minigame from Zelda: Skyward Sword, but somehow even more frustrating.
I screamed at the pumpkins
I think my brain deleted the pumpkin carrying thing.
But i completely suked t playing that panflute in spirit tracks. For every single song, i had to give the ds to my brother so he ca play the fipping song and i can actually proceed.
when you see kingdom hearts in the thumbnail, you know the salt is gonna be good
Rebecca Lotto I was laughing because if she managed to get passed through that fight with ansem, she would then be brought to a rude awakening
Yes
TBH, though, that was one of the easier Ansem/Xehanort fights.
@@ChobinoftheFunk What was harder than that? I've beaten KH2 and 3, but quit 1 after reaching the third part of this fight.
@@Robin-lk1mm Xehanort in Dream Drop Distance, Xemnas was somewhat harder in KH2, and Birth By Sleep's Mysterious Figure is said to be even harder than 3D's Xehanort, for starters. Haven't played 3 yet.
Every time I see the word “submit” I hear Ansem’s voice shouting it in my head.
In kingdom hearts, if you use guard when Ansem charges like he does instead of dodge roll, not only will it block the attack, but with the counter attack skill, you can follow up into a combo.
Ahh...
Similarly to Ellen's, one moment that made me stop playing was in one of the old Avatar the Last Airbender video games. The final boss has two stages, and you can't use any healing items in the second phase. I could have easily beaten it with just one heal, and knowing that and being unable to beat it frustrated me so much that I never finished the game.
Jane is adorable when her voice cracks.

Well I'm Tarzan 😐😎
for me it was Modern Warfare 2 on Veteran mode during the "Loose End" Mission. at the end of the level you have to run through a sparse field with enemies both in-front of you and behind while getting shelled my mortars. while tough in its own right my game decided to place the checkpoint as your ally Ghost said the line "They're bracketing our position with mortars!" so every time i died i got to hear that line over and over and over again to the point of insanity, then after several hours of this i make it to the end where (Spoilers) you get killed off in a cutscene (end Spoilers). needless to say i was so livid that i had to go break something in frustration.
Sir Roderick Quincy von thunderbottom, the Magnificent high king of Australia this was me but I would get stuck in the mansion when the enemies started spawning from the back of the building
The thing is that in uncharted 2 you only end up in a large percent of those gun fights if you can't or won't be bothered to stealth through it. You can basically go through half the enemies if you are willing to sneak around and kill them one by one.
probably the only top 10 "insert something here" channel i will enjoy
Yusuke does get better but MAN is his introduction rough. Not only does he want to paint Ann nude while she's clearly uncomfortable with it, this all comes right after Kamoshida's dungeon, who was a HORRIFIC creepazoid to Ann. It's just weird that the game doesn't give you any option to go "Hey maybe we shouldn't force her to do this, huh?"
wow you english speaking people are such pussys, you complain about every single little thing.
Not gonna lie I played the whole of Persona 5 with everyone rocking swimsuits
Isn't that game Japanese??
What? The gang is there to make sure yusuke doesn't do anything so the option of don't force her was already there he only says Ann has to do it because of Ryuji saying all that he did not mention yusuke had to do it they're multiple reasons why yusuke did what did saying that you go on with the game and saying yusuke is a creep is entirely missing the point of his character and that arc
yes its set in japan as well natsu
also lol dunny
Surprising lack of Fallout New Vegas' Dead Money DLC. Every three minutes you hear: BEEP BEEP BEEP, and start to panic trying to find the stupid radio or speaker. Revenge was sweet though.
Yeah. Dead Money is the worst. Its also annoying how it forces you to be good to those terrible companions.
Easily my favorite dlc of all time
@@robertlehto4667 you can always kill them at the end
True, but to make it easy you have to kiss the rear end of Dean Domino all the way through.
The first time I played Dead Money I was so pissed off with it and everything about it that I didn't play New Vegas again for over six months. Only tried that crap fest of a dlc once more and still hate it with a fiery passion, and haven't played it again since. And don't get me started on the bugged out and broken final encounter with Elijah in the vault... god I hate that dlc so much.
My 'Eff This' moment came in Mass Effect 3. It's a game entirely about amassing an army to take on the imminent threat.
I was playing through the Hanar mission, when I hit a point that I couldn't get into a certain room. Try as I might, I couldn't work out how to get in, and as a result the Hanar didn't join my army and it changed the ending of my game.
I later discovered that the only way to get into the room is to have Kasumi in your party. I had not heard of Kasumi, so I researched and found out that she was a DLC character that you had to pay for in Mass Effect 2.
So the only way to change the outcome of my Mass Effect 3 game was to go back and replay Mass Effect 2, buy the character and then replay Mass Effect 3 again.
Eff That.
i was so annoyed because of how many things depend on its dlc and mass effect 2's especially the epilogue dlc
That's actually horrible. I hadn't heard about this but damn. past dlc should never be a plotline in a current game.
I remember that Max Payne part. Freaked me out too. It also made me think Max Payne was a scary game, like with ghosts or monsters or something.
I would find out much later what Max Payne was really about.
See, where you went wrong with KH1 is the fact you actually acknowledged Donald and Goofy's existence in battle o. o
And the fact that she didn't grind up to a decent level.
@@SarahAbramova Yes that and I don't think she was blocking the right way, but she also acknowledged Donald and Goofy and thought they would help her.
Imo goofy made a decent tank Frontline if you gave him the right skills, however Donald was just an after thought, he would literally die every fight and there was no point reviving him
to me they were always shit so i never relied on them very much lol
I mean guard was an essential skill that she neglected and made it more difficult than it should have been
Wait, Mike *DIDN'T* complete Dark Souls?!
Everything I know is a lie...
Mike has always said he never completed Dark Souls. Where have you been?
Yeah but he could beat it
before we know luke will beat his times in racing games :P
anarchy!
if only grenade launchers and cars with battering rams attached were in Dark Souls...
Luke beat dark souls.
Gotta say I do love that new conversational format of the videos.
I remember the scream from Max Payne - if you went to a dead end in the blood trail "maze", the baby screamed in a horrifying, unnatural way until you turned around...!
I orginally thought; "Oh, I've never had a game make me peace out so hard I never returned!". But then the repressed memories started to surface.
Final Fantasy XIII: around about hour 20 once I've already gone through 3 disc changes, Several grindy bosses and enough uneven story to set my hard whirrling; the game had the nerve to say "Oh, by the way, let me introduce you to free roam". Aside from the fact that the story had already reached a natural conclusion an hour back, the insult of handing me a featureless expanse of close to a quater acre and calling it a 'open world space' was enough to make me quit.
It's a shame as that was my first introuduction to Final Fantasy and JRPG's in general and I could see the potential in the game style, but that experience COULD have been enough to put me of the genre and series for good. If I hadn't given the francise one last chance by picking up FF7, I might have missed on FF type-0 and FF15, all because of one bad apple in the bunch. Guess Willy Wonka was right.
About the Apple thing I mean, not the whole murdering children racket he had going... that was... objectively wrong...
I'm past trying to defend FFXIII's many, many flaws to those who don't like the game (and good on you for surviving the slog that is the Palamecia chapter!!) but I just wanna ask how you felt the story had "reached a natural conclusion" when it had - if you remember of course??
@@randoMMise666 I honestly can't remember the guys name, the big God thing that the party talks about all the time. When you have the big fight against him for what I assume is only the first time. (he reeked of end boss). I realise that most of the characters were still eidolonless by this point and hadn't received emotional pathos, but by that point we'd already gone through the 3 act ringer and I was honestly just hoping the game would just go "we're out, come back for 13-2!" Maybe I'll go back one day and finish what I started but honestly now with the tales series, Ni No Kuni and Shin Megami Tensei at my disposal I'm really split for choice JRPG wise.
Oh fair, I thought you meant the story had seemingly come to a conclusion, as opposed to the game feeling finished. I found your experience interesting since I usually read that people find they enjoy the game more once it opens up and you have full control of party members. I can appreciate feeling tired of the game by the end of Chapter 10 though since it and Chapter 9 are both too long with little enemy variety. I will say if you can stomach those sections again, you may find the second half of the game far more enjoyable as the challenge ramps up, and you have more flexibility in combat :)
Only game I can think of where I had a serious "screw this" reaction was the Gameboy Pocket Aliens. 1: limited ammo, unlimited enemies, 2: map transitions where you can get spawn camped, 3: you need to do a lot of running around to find key items, 4: I still have no idea how to do the puzzle to unlock the final boss.
I don't remember much about the game other than the fact that I also stopped playing the game after reaching the more open area. It didn't make me actively go "Eff this game", but I had other things going on at the time and just sorta lost any feeling to continue.
27:00
And that y i play games with subtitles on
He still only says "Those barrels, they have napalm in them?" or something along those lines and they really just failed the gameplay design in that mission.
I never realized that after playing through multiple times. Always wondered why that section was so damn difficult to get down the hill and trigger the next section.
Joe H Me, too. It took me three or four times playing through the campaign on that game (because I just really enjoyed the single player stuff in Black Ops 1) to realize, "Hey! I've been doing this wrong! Wow, it was WAAAY easier when you do it the right way!" Lol I felt dumb.
Am i the only one who knifed the barrels cause I remembered the first mission of waw
Original Content Guess so. I'm not even sure what mission you're talking about, but it's been a LONG time since I played WAW.
I had a huge fear of video game spiders so when being introduced to them in Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly or some shit I instantly was traumatized and never played it again. Only got over this fear after quitting Skyrim (due to obvious arachnid reasons) and realizing how much I loved the game so after braving it out I got used to them. Still hate the slow motion kills that zoom into them though.
In Bully, when you have to beat the high score on the arcade machine to impress the nerds. I was just so bad at that and had to do it so many times I just got sick of the whole thing.
Oh yeah. That thing. I once game over'd when I was just a few points/pounds short. Did it eventually, though.
One of the later biology classes, just could not move the sluggish pointer quick and precise enough within the time.
That bike maintenance minigame was simply impossible on xbox.
The remote controlled planes in GTA San Andreas. After failing that mission a dozen times, I just quit the game and never looked back.
Don’t care. It was so infuriatingly awful, I couldn’t stand to keep playing. Eff this game!
And maybe I had just dealt with OC Loc, and effing hell, the crap just kept piling on.
Oh i always dreaded that mission every time i go to replay GTA SA. Especially when it has to be done as a side mission for 100% That's going to be a nightmare.
I only finished that on PC. With the mouse was so easy it was insulting...
I only played it on pc and generally like flying sequences, so I finished the rc plane missions on my 3rd try. It were the motor chases I hated, especially the one with OG Loc, I kept losing balance and falling.
This is where it’s advantageous to be “poor” and only be able to get a new game a couple times a year, like I was back then. When you don’t really have anything else to play, and you have no social life to speak of, you develop the ability to transcend the rage quit and just grind through it in a zen-like trance.
Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild. Thunderblight Ganon. Never finished that boss fight cause I forgot how to dodge
That's the point where I basically gave up on the main game and just started fucking around XD
No blocking we die like the champions
Eff thunderblight and the divine beast missons to
When I played, I was TERRIBLE at dodging, but there’s a way around it. Get your stamina bar at max level, get some two handed weapons, and when Thunder Blight Ganon teleports, start spin attacking and moving around while spinning with your weapon. You’ll still get hit, but it gives you a higher chance of landing some hits. That’s how I defeated him.
The Lord of The Rings: The Fellowship The Ring on PS2.
You start in The Shire and have to escape from the Ring Wraiths without them spotting you in the middle of the night in a stealth section. My brother and I probably played that section on and off for literally 2 years and never once got passed them.
To this day, I have no idea what happens in that game after that introduction level. Fuck. That. Part.
mine is oni: the ps2 game I could never pass the intro level where you have to jump pass the lasers
ShellShock794 The game doesn't get much better after you escape the Shire. A little less finicky and I don't recall any more instant failures but it's still extremely dull.
The last time I played that, I was 6 years old. I always played with my brother and I could never get to this same level!
I got past that bit, but ended up quitting and never finishing the game later on. Fighting said ringwraiths at Amon Hen, the only way to win seemed to be filling them with arrows, but everytime you died your inventory remained fixed. So all the arrows you used started to dwindle until you only could use a sword and it became impossible.
its not that hard of a section but i get what happened to you
that is one moment in the game that needs handholding. as the devs do not let you know what to do or where to go properly
i remember failing this part over and over as well, but i also remember that it was actually really damn easy once you found out how to beat it
On black ops, I have subtitles turned on so I heard the instructions hahahah the advantages of the hearing impaired!
Shadow Kitsune I always turn on subtitles to avoid crap like that.
Step one in ANY game I play is to up the brightness and activate all subtitles.
Yeah in clustered noise games such as shooters I don't understand why you wouldn't want subtitles. Sure he did mention immersion but...he missed out on a lot of the game due to unnecessary frustration. 😯
Then again I can read well with my peripherals so it doesn't ever really distract me, and it occurs to me that not everyone can do that.
I always turn it off right away...Black Ops that is
I just turn the subtitles on cause I can't do anything in my house without being screamed at for being too loud. Meanwhile they wake me up at 5am every goddamn day yelling at each other from across the house. Or are the first to yell at me for being too loud cause they missed half a syllable of their show (with subtitles on) because I opened the fridge door.
What made me go "Eff this game" to Friday that 13th is when I'm doing the missions (because I didn't feel like doing the multiplayer stuff) was redoing missions (because I'm being a perfectionist) and I have to watch the introductory scene IN FULL, EVERY SINGLE TIME.
I couldn't stand it.
Then there's the achievements being "play this game several thousand hours!" and I just went "nope".
Oh dear god, amnesia. I have schizophrenia, and when I'm tired or upset I would start seeing shadows trying to either grab at me or something similar. My paranoia would also shot through the roof, my head would also sometimes feel like Its swimming while I walk. It's hard to explain. So, when my characters vision started blurring, and stuff started appearing more vividly I noped out of there. It was even worse 'cause my mind tried to show me things even when the game was quiet. So, yea, I honestly never got to even see the monsters of the game, and while I HAVE tried playing the game I can never get past the first thirty minutes. It's just too damn real.
Oh man... Battle toads, that damn hover bike segment.... A. Nightmare.
Fights like that are what bayonetta's saving at the significant phases of a boss fight system was made for.
Yeah...I wish Bloodborne did that.
