8 Terrible Levels That Nearly Ruined Great Games: Commenter Edition
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 авг 2024
- When we got all salty about levels that nearly ruined our favourite games, we asked which terrible levels in otherwise great games ground your gears. Fiddly GTA San Andreas missions, misjudged Deus Ex: Human Revolution boss battles, and an entire ethereal dimension from Dragon Age: Origins figure in your hall of shame.

The bit where you do yoga in GTA 5, hop around a circus made of meat in Psychonauts and Dark Souls' poxy Blighttown also crop up in the comments, alongside anything involving a remote control vehicle in GTA San Andreas.
I know we all remember GTA San Andreas being perfect, but then we also remember it looking pretty good, and a quick trip back to Los Santos circa 2004 reveals a very different, much blockier story.
As several commenters noted, GTA San Andreas at its lowest ebb was the Red Baron mission in which you tried to fly an uncooperative remote control biplane through narrow city streets while machine-gunning delivery boys to death, like a hero.
Elsewhere, commenters raised the spectre of Deus Ex: Human Revolution's jarringly stealth-proof boss battles, as if we needed reminding of the time we had our cybernetic asses handed to us by an anthropomorphic tank because we'd sunk all our Praxis points into non-combat skills.
Reminders were equally unnecessary for the tediousness of Dragon Age: Origins' Fade. This was an alternate dimension of mystic energies and muddy textures where, if you played as a mage, you got sent right at the beginning of the game.
In the fiction of the game, this is a dangerous and harrowing rite of passage, much like trying jagerbombs for the first time. In my lived experience as someone who always chooses to play mage, it's also a proper slog, for which your only friendly company is a talking mouse. In fact, can we do a jagerbomb ritual instead?

SHIT MINE TOO 'COS I'VE SEEN THIS FUCKING CUTSCENE 87 TIMES
*LOL*
Salix Sepulcralis
That plane mission wasn't a problem for me, it was the last mission zero had that was a problem. Ugh.
what about that other plane mission from Mike Toreno where you have to stay below radar.
I'm suprised there wasn't a cutscene after multiple failures where Big Smoke comes out of nowhere and screams "All you had to do was fly the damn plane, CJ!
Oh god I remember the VC plane level. I think I remember it more fondly because it was early into the game. I could just do it and move on.
GTA 5: A game where you can murder everyone,steal and destroy cars,and of course, do yoga.
The 13th Wizard Namaste
at least we got to smash a laptop over his head *cough* in a cut scene *cough
I always found that funny. One of the worst games in terms of the language its characters use censors bad language online. By the same token, single player had a bit where you had to snoop on people having sex (damn paparazzi) and got topless lapdances but online the closest you could get was fully clothed sex in cars or clothed lapdances.

The Fade in Dragon Age Origins is more likely referred to the Broken Circle quest and not the Mage Origin. It involves traveling around to gain different forms, often back tracking to get to new areas so you can find and defeat the five guardians to unlock access to the main demon. Then there are optional bits, like rescuing your companions from their dreams and find bonus attribute points. Thankfully, someone made a mod to skip most of the fade bit.
Honestly, the Fade was far from being terrible , once you get the logic. And bonus attribute are very useful anyway.
@@rouliettapouet9213 Get the skip the fade mod though. It's SO tedious, it just gives you all the possible bonuses and lets you do your companions dreams and then the boss without the stupidly long dungeons in between.
God, I hated the Fade. It was only tolerable in DA2, because it was short!
I just hated losing all my companions aka the people who distract my enemies from my squishy mage character
Indeed. When she ended that section with the commentary about the Fade actually being a pretty good rite of passage for your mage character I thought it was just setting up a "but unfortunately you then have to go back there for the endless Broken Circle questline" comic transition into talking about what people actually dislike about it. Maybe they blocked that quest from their memories.
The water level in...... everything.
Amnesia... The Dark Descent...
Subnautica?
Loz oot water temple lol.
The water levels in Spyro 2&3 were great.
The water level in mega man 2 was pretty good
I think the yoga minigame exist because it's supposed to set the stage for how distant and disinterested he is from his wife. Not only does it make you as the player feel annoyed but it also brings us closer to understanding Michael because we ourselves are disinterested and don't care about his wife and we want to just murder people.
Woooow maaaan
I actually don't mind the Yoga part, plus if I recall correctly doesn't it improve Michael's Special Skill?
L. Wolf if the writing in GYA V hadn't been sp shitty, i might actually have believed that.
Giraffen Benji lol yeah I've been watching a lot of RUclips film analysis as of late.
+MMvG lol too profound and it gets preachy
Was Andy holding a cup of 'hot coffee' while talking about San Andreas ;)
Inside joke at it's finest. I seriously never tried it.
👏👏👏
Oh, I didn't pick up on that, I only thought he did it so he could have something to spit out.
Username
There are no such thing as coincidence. If it was, he shall regret it now.
It's funny how things have changed: back then "hot coffee" was a huge scandal, but now it's okay to to watch hooker doing a bj in first person.
I think we can all agree: They comment was referring to the Fade during the Sloth Demon level. Then right after that, you had to fight Uldred. Pain upon pain.
*insert sloth riddle here*
Right? Imagine whining about that very short, very to the point Harrowing section that they showed in the video...
I dont wanna be a bear
The ULTIMATE level that ACTUALLY ruined a game. The tutorial in Driver.
We had a memory card just so we could restart the game over or let my brothers and friends play.
I never could beat it, I was always one thing short.
I mean this is a way to stop kids from playing the whole game lmfao 😂🤣😂
@@noteminemsburneraccount324 Problematic tho as i beat that thing as a kid while my Father couldn't :)
@@MikayaAkyo on the rare occassionthough i doubt it as when it came out unless you had a dictonary id doubt any kid would know what a slalom is
If you're talking about the parking lot, it's not a tutorial, it's an actual mission that is a reference to the movie "The Driver" from 78.
The game has actual tutorials, you can find it under "Training" in the main menu.
All we had to do was follow the damn train CJ.
MrGaming 679 I've played recently the game (on the phone!) and did it first time.What's so hard about this mission, again?
Tudor Ciubotaru it was patched to be more forgiving but it used to be if you drove too close to the train it looked like your bullets were hitting the guys on the train but they were actually clipping the corner of the roof and you'd lose time after time vs what seemed like an invincible bad guy.
MrGaming679 OOOOOOOOHHHH
I think it's more the frustration than anything else - firstly you're relying on Smoke to do all the shooting so even if you follow the train perfectly then you can fail, and secondly if you do fail then you're left in the middle of nowhere and have to drive all the way back to town to retry it.
I also passed this first time unpatched. But when I replayed from the beginning I found it an issue! It seemed that being in a logical position relative to the enemies did nothing to help Big Smoke to shoot the enemies. But then when you found the less logical 'magic spot' they all die easily.
Then as the last commenter said, generally any mission in any game which takes a part of success out of your hands and into shoddy AI, feels incredibly unfair and frustrating to fail... Then Big Smoke BLAMES YOU with all the attitude of the worst faults of humanity.
Pretty sure with Dragon Age origins they meant the late-game fade level. Where you have to navigate the maze, not the newbie tutorial mage level.
Thought the same. Still, it was one of my favorite parts of the game - I actually quite enjoyed shapeshifting into different things, each one with their pros and cons.
I kinda wish Morrigan's specialization had been like that.
Yeah the "Harrowing" wasn't especially. The sloth demon fade could be a bit frustrating the first time you do it. But my inner munchkin does appreciate the massive power upgrade it hands out for going through all the paces.
Ugh yeah that maze stuff was so confusing the first time I did it. Thankfully, my other playthroughs went pretty smoothly. It's still pretty tedious though. But it's still not as frustrating as the freaking Deep Roads to me.
The battle do Denerim was the worst in my opinion, want to know why look at my comment in Michelle Lawolski comment, it's long I'm not typing it again
White chocolate milk? You monster
The yoga mission in GTA 5 really didn't bother me
MVP Mike because you controller was fine and none of the value randomly changed
MVP Studios same
I had to literally swap out the controller in order to beat it
MVP Studios I agree, I mean it was short and sweet and you only had to do it once... Ocorina Of Time, The Water Temple on the other hand....
After I hit the yoga level I quit GTA5
I actually had fun driving the mako in mass effect, especially when I imagined how the party members respond to shepherd's bad driving
It did suck how quickly it could break under fire and how much omni-gel it cost to repair it each time
with the fade i'm sure he means the level in the tower which is so long and labyrintic with the demon of sloth.
That area was the absolute worst. On my second playthrough I had to download a mod so I could skip that damn fade section.
Ah, I remember once completing that level. Then I downloaded the mod to skip it for all time. Betcha they did and wound up completely forgetting it exists.
Where you have to transform into all the different bloody creatures and do the puzzles, oh god.
Once you've play enough times it's easy enough, but it's easy to see where people are coming from.
***** Yup, I can def agree. I got terribly lost first time.
Actually I think the Yoga section was good, because shows you how Michael's Life goes, he doesn'0t have a place there, and neither do you, it is supouse to feel dull
It was good in that it meets its intended purpose but it was crap because it was boring and everyone hated it
Jord119 to be honest, I didn't mind it. It was a breather from the rest of the game and like you say it had its purpose.
I hated it.I spent over an hour on it and my thumbs were killing me
Yea I do fail. Loads
is it.wow.
Lmao “400 years later, Humanity has invented steering” 😂😂
Farcry 4, The Shangri-la mission.... .... Missions... All of them....
I've done three out of four and enjoyed them. Can't say the elephant is super useful.
Yeah lmao I loved the Shangri la levels specifically the scenery and surrealness of the whole situation
I could have done without them, but the satisfaction after completing them was immense.
come on, the yoga section is at least easy.
What about Demyx's second fight in Kingdom Hearts 2?
DANCE WATER DANCE!
YumeNoUmi no... No... NEVER AGAIN!
More like atlantica, the entire fucking thing in kingdom hearts 2
CorporalBog *swim this way plays in the background* Am I in hell?
YumeNoUmi oh, it's not the worst quick time event in the world.
What do you mean the yoga section in gta 5? It's the least ruined section of this list
TheHcrss totally agree , I loved that mission lol it was so creative!
I just wish there were more poses so I can learn all the yoga I need from my favourite video game series.
Agree. It's my favourite one. I just love that moment when Michael starts falling down into the colorful LS with Flying Facilities song and "What Do You Want, Michael?" phrase on the background.
And yes, I always slow down the falling so I can listen to the whole song.
I just hated how your family runs away and your car gets stolen from your son. And also a loss of $3,000..
Try it with keyboard................
Tbh. I enjoy the Fade in DAO but the Deep Roads. The only way to cope with six hours in dank brown miserable wasteland is to drink. A lot.
Yeah, the Deep Roads went on far too long to be enjoyable. SO tedious...
I spent what felt more like thirty hours in the Deep Roads. At least I got through the Fade in one session.
I don't understand the complaints, it takes like 2 hours to do everything in the deep roads, plus it's fun to plow through the weak dark spawn, makes you actually feel like a Grey Warden
Max Payne - those goddamn blood maze levels. 3 of them, in a row, no quick saving on console. Slowmo, narrow walkways, low gravity, limited sight, oh and jumping sections in a fucking MAZE.
Am I the only one who didn't have a problem with Did Somebody Say Yoga in GTA V? It was actually one of the funniest missions in the game.
I love the bit where you freefall to The C90S Shine A Light
Nope you are not the only one
The. Yoga was easy
Yeah, I didn't mind the mission either.
I didn't mind it. I liked it actually. It showed off the games diversity from other things.
Gee, thanks, OxBox. I survive Hurricane Matthew, only to get Fade flashbacks.
You monsters.
It's worth mentioning the modding community on PC has, like, an entire subgenre to help people skip and avoid those segments.
And there's always alcohol to forget...
I actually liked the fade
I don't see what's wrong with the fade, even in the Circle seciton it's easy to figure out what to do, if we're gonna rag on Dragon Age lets insult THE FUCKING HALAMSHIRAL PALACE MISSION.
GZLAnnihilation which mission was that?
I disagree. I thought the Halamshiral Palace was one of the best in all of Inquisition. Like you (imho erroneously) said with the fade, it's easy to figure out what to do, and it gives us a first-hand experience of the infamous Orlesian world of cutthroat politics we've been told about for three games. And all of the endings are fantastic. The Fade(at least the 'Broken Circle' one with Sloth that we're talking about) is an annoying instance of having to do x to get y but you need z to get x, so first you have to get w, which is protected by z. It may be clear(again, up for debate) what you have to do but the level design was godawful--the Halamshiral mission was a bit more mysterious, maybe, but it was more enjoyable and once you knew what to do it was fairly easy. I've been able to get 90+ on every playthrough, and I make a lot of elves.
I mean, for chrissakes, there's a *reason* the DA modding community has made several mods to skip the Fade. It's annoying. And adds very little to the actual story.
I'm replaying Mass Effect and I really don't think the Mako is that bad, unless you get it truly stuck it works well. It's definitely better than the tedious scanning from ME2.
yeah, it was more the terrain for being so mountainous, outside of that it handled well. I miss running over geth armatures, then blasting them... ah, good stuff.
John Shade idk, I found the section really boring and dull.The bad part is some sections are mandatory for the story, so you got to do them.But I also agree that the scanning in ME2 is worse
I understand how it could become dull, I mean I never really found it so, I but get it. If they had spiced up the Mako with more rpg elements (more weapon choices, maybe some kind of abilities) to match the rest of the game I certainly wouldn't have complained, probably would have made those sections at least a more interesting.
As for the scanning I don't think anyone liked it, at all, makes you wonder how anyone in development thought that was a good idea. Unless of course you could sell the extra resources, then not so bad... well maybe for people who still hated all the time being wasted doing it.
John Shade I'm actually playing this series right now and the mining, like the Mako section in ME2 could have been way better with some awesome upgrades: scan and steal all the resources from an entire planet with a single push of the button!That would have been amazing!
Yeah the scanning was both easier yet worse at the same time. The only annoyance I remember was the "platforming"
I loved the Mako
Seriously, nobody mentioned this?:
Force Unleashed: You know what level i'm talking about...
Darth Vader: Dark side final duel?
Nope.
Stardestroyer sink thingy level
That level would have been great were it not for those shitting tie fighters.
yup
is that the level were you gotta pull down the star destroy using the force. no level has made me rage quit a game so hard. still haven't beaten it nor do I want to now.
Did everyone forgot the "classic" phantom pain mission where big boss is fooled into bringing silent weapons into a fight with an armada of tanks with laser accuracy, worthless cover, Quiet draining your money into the negatives and the fact that you CAN'T LEAVE THE DAMN MISSION!?!
It's part of the phantom pain, deal with it.
Well these choices are part of a game so you dont have a point.
But video is about bad things that were in a *great games*, dude
Phantom Pain was a great game
Oh god now i'm getting PTSD. Why did you have to remind me of that horrible mission.
I know I'm a bit late to the party on this video, but if you guys do another one like this, I have a nomination from yesteryear:
The stupid "turbo tunnel" section in the stupid Battletoads game where you have to jump that stupid cart thingy over the stupid wedges. I spent a not insignificant part of my childhood trying to beat it.
That damnable "speeder bike through an intestine" crap...I hate it to this day.
This needs part two great vid guys!.. and 6:48 ... i'm in love.
Vice City had a bit where you had to drop off bombs in a empty building with an RC helicopter so Burt Reynolds' character could blow it up and claim the insurance money or something. I could never do it before the timer ran out and as such I could never progress the story and never finished GTA Vice City. A similar thing happened in GTA4's Lost and the Damned where you had to steal a prison bus and get from point A to point B without causing any damage or before the timer ran out or some
other Rockstar-style bullshit bad gameplay conceit. Never finished that either.
I honestly hated that mission where you had to keep driving Love Fist's Limo really fast or it'll explode the problem being that cars would try to do everything to stop you by crashing into you.
That RC helicopter mission was the sole reason I had to use cheats to reach the second island. 'Demolition Man' Still remember the name of it I retried so many times
because of that RC mission, I could only finish the game like a year later or so.
The RC helicopter mission is not that hard. Start with the bomb on the highest level and work your way down. It's actually more simple that way and the love fist mission is easy if you turn the car around immediately and then drive on the long straight bridge and road.
The prison bus mission was pretty easy though
Currently stuck on the first boss on my second playthrough of Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
My first run through was in guns blazing superhuman mode, so I thought I'd go full stealth this time.
Big mistake.
Dan Xepha if you have enough bullets for the stun gun, you can shoot him and then reload before he recovers and just repeat that until he dies. That's the only way I got through it. It doesn't count as a kill against the pacifist ending either
For a game that encourages stealth a lot, it sure likes to make it hard to use. I feel like the beginning is hinting towards stealth upgrades but then the game makes it really hard to play that way.
*****
I've got the "Free on Games With Gold" version.
I'll work it out I'm sure.
Thanks all for the tips.
I think I prefer it with some action and violence TBH :-/
Ok, so I did Deus EX HR on the hardest difficulty, and this is how you beat the first boss (the others are stupidly easy after the first dude):
YES. Invest in stealth if you're aiming for Pacifist. No question. If you want to kill everyone, don't bother, and invest in armor, fall damage and strength. Pacifist you'll want to prioritise Social Enhancer and Hacking skills (really helps you sneak around).
HOWEVER. You REALLY don't need the tranq rifle (assuming you picked it up). Stun Gun is WAY better, and takes up less space.
Get an assault rifle (if aiming for pacifist). Not even kidding. It helped me SOO much against Barratt. Get it early, and use. EVERY. SINGLE. Upgrade on it that you get. Once you've got as many upgrades are available in the first area, it will churn out damage like nothing. Also, use cover as much as possible. Don't poke your head up unless he's recharging the machine gun. Also. EMPs. Save them up like they're fucking gold. Cannot stress how important they are in keeping him from attacking. Try and save up the frags too, but obv, since you won't get the wall punch aug, it might not be feasible.
TL;DR. For Pacifist, get an assault rifle early, Upgrade it a tonne, and your good to go.Hope this helps! :)
Yeah... the Director's Cut edition fixes that problem by including a New Game + option that let you carry over all of your upgrades from the previous run, giving you the potential to fully max out your Augs by the end of your second play through. At that point the game practically plays itself and the bosses are almost laughably easy to take down. As you must have been playing the standard edition though, I can see how you would have had a hard time, to say the least.
I love the Mako, it was awesome. you could even break it into the last part of Liara's recruitment mission where you're supposed to start walking.
Oh my gosh! You got a once-in-a-quarter laugh out of me on the "social enhancer engaged." part.
I think he means the part of the fade where you have to fight the sloth demon and save all your companions. It's so long and dull
That RC plane made me give up on San Andreas twice, even after my second try 6 years later
See, the Mako was one of my favorite parts of ME1. I could make that thing dance up a mountain. So satisfying and relaxing :)
"The Molecular Level" in Fallout 4. This was so annoying, building all the crap to teleport and wiring everything up. This should not have been unskippable.
The "Best Left Forgotten" quest in the Far Harbor DLC was so ridiculously annoying when the indexers wouldn't move towards the end goal and instead would just bunch up in an area and get killed. But I guess that's technically a bug, so.
What was wrong with the Maco? Loved that thing.
I'm guessing most people used the jets way too much, and that's why they had trouble controlling it. The car actually handles quite well if you keep all wheels planted on the ground, but give people a jump button and they'll pretend they're on a pogo stick.
Mountainous terrain.
likewise
on the console it was great. However the pc port version was so terrible I would rather kill myself
im gonna dislike you
I loved the Mako. Don't get peoples hate for it.
Peridot Cactus It handled like trash.
Peridot Cactus yeah. I liked it. I mean the controls were a wee bit wonky at times but it was generally pretty fun and good. And I really liked exploring the planets
I loved the Mako. So fun to drive.
I assume people will tell how terrible the Mako was, so instead of telling you, I will simply say,
I liked the Hammerhead from the Firewalker DLC and Project Overlord. Could've had a bit more armor, but I wish we would have had that instead of the Mako.
Hold down W. Goes in literally every direction that isn't forwards.
Hey! Yoga wasn't that bad. I thought it was hilarious, particularly after you finished the mission, and it became available to do whenever. I said it wasn't that bad, not that I would do it willingly.
Luke Salter seriously it was completely fine
"Get up on the hydra's back!" And most of the Organization XIII battles, especially Demyx's.
Dance, water, dance!
Heheh. :) It's funny, because I liked Demyx alright, just not fighting him.
I know this is old but I just wanted to add that the only Org XIII members I had trouble with to the point I quit playing for a good while and came back later too were Xaldin and Luxord
Luxord tho gets a special mention since I only actually came back to kick his ass about a year ago to finally finish the game, and even then he was still super difficult
I was 14 when he made me rage quit for a few years. Now I'm turning 20 in a few months lol
holy shit 5 views never been this early
I got 5,598 views after watching the video.
On gta SA when I was younger I couldn't do the RC plane mission so I never completed the campaign until a year later when I went back to it
but I think it was pretty good
I spent days stuck doing that mission. And the bastard hard one at the beach where you have to dance for some reason... awful mission.
I must have broken at least one controller trying to beat that god damned mission xD
I always thought that the one that sucked is the forecliff I hated that one
and the plane was easy to control at least for me
That tank in the first Mass Effect was awesome! That thing could climb up an almost completely 90 degree cliff, and could take some serious pounding. The hover jet thing you got in Mass Effect 2 really was a massive pain because not only did that thing maneuver about as well as a rocket engine duck taped to a plastic sled, it was about as durable.
Croc: Legend of the Gobbos, PS1, the last few ice levels are insanely hard. At least when i was 8. Great game still.
You're not early you're on time
Ikr
Leroywarverjenkins You're not on time, you're watching a RUclips video silly :)
Humanity may have invented steering for Andromeda but it comes at the cost of FREKKING GUNS!
and story and likeable characters and stability and lore and everything. id like the crappy steering back please
Nah nah nah nah another piss poor hater hating on a good game, come @ me hater pussies I'll take all of you shitfaces on and dump your corpses by the wayside
Death by Konami lol
@@gyui1091 lol huh, u a hater as well?
I'm surprised no one mentioned The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time's Water Temple
I sort of liked it then I killed myself and respawnd
Bro I loved driving the bat mobile 😂
With the fade I liked the tutorial but not so much with the later nontutorial part
The stat boosters were nice though.
Midnight Archer well aside from those
Heartburn52 that was easy but the hardest part for me was fighting against the Broodmother. I haven't played Origins in two years so I'm sure I could do it now 😂
Fucking Broodmother. i had to get King Calin's stuff to even kill it.
I had the luxury of shale with nature crystals and archery lots and lots of archery, stand on the solid rocks have shale tank, make sure wynne is on the stone to heal and your last party member also use archery even if they have no skills in it (it takes a little bit of time but still)
What! The Mako was the best!
Totally dude. Mako rules, learn to drive fools!
Not only was it fun to use, it could semi-hover, if done properly, had an amazing gun, could climb almost any mountain and could actually take a damn hit. Give me the Maco over the Hammerhead any fucking day.
Finally people who share my view, the warthogs from halo, to me has the same difficulty to drive and both I'm not bad at
I totally agree with you on that. Driving the Mako was an artform, you had to read the topography of the map and travel the best route to reach your destination.
I think people complain about it because of all the hills and bumps on the maps and their blaming the poor Mako. The missions where u go save Liara and chase Saren had no hills and it was easy to drive, BAM solid evidence, argument over, I'm done
I really liked the motorbike segments in Tomb Raider: Underworld. Once you get used to the controls, it was really fun to zoom around and (towards the end) crash into the undead to insta-kill them. And it just added to the super-stylish game mechanics of the second iteration of Tomb Raider.
I'm a few years late, but that bit where you have to protect the cart in Twilight Princess is agonizing
blighttown didnt nearly ruined dark souls, the only problem is the fps, if you want to put some dark souls in this list, put Bed of Chaos, or, as i like to call it, BAD of Chaos
Did anyone else get a monstrous frame rate drop while climbing New Londo ladders and that particular ladder in the forest where you can snipe the hydra?
Apparantly the game devs have said they'd like to redo all the endgame areas of Dark Souls as they just flat out ran out of time. The Painted World is an exception as I believe it was actually one of the first levels they made but they couldn't figure out how to fit it into the game's main story so they just hid it as a side area.
+KingSigy The Bed Of Chaos wasn't that bad, but the Dragon God was tedious and dull as shit.
and nobody mentions anor londo bloody bridge with silver knight archers?
Yeah. Came here to say this. There's nothing in Dark Souls (and I mean the entire series) that's worse than the bed of chaos. A fight where the floor can fall out from under you at a moments notice and that has the final challenge be a platforming test. A platforming test. In Dark Souls.
Did people really have that much trouble with the Mako? After about 5 minutes of figuring out how the boosters work, it's pretty simple to control.
you know what really grinds my gears. 1. Lists 2.myself 3.running out of ideas 4. again lists
Re4 when Ashley was magically able to operate a random tractor instead of the intensely trained government operative
I am I the only one who didn't mind the Mako at all? Wasn't that hard to handle.
I personally found the Deus ex boss battles really easy. On the directors cut of the games some changes were made to the fights levels. On the first part there is an office you can climb a ladder to then you can hide in some vents and just take pot shots or if you have the upgrades hack the computer. On the second one as soon as it started I just lobbed an emp to stun her then through some grenades and it was done. The third one was the easiest as you just run to the upstairs bit grab a heavy box and wait for him m to follow you then just throw a box at him. It knocks him down leaving him vulnerable for you to unload all you hoarded ammo in to his head
Climbing vines in super Mario legend of the seven stars. Literally the only time you do it and with a super Nintendo controller no less. Most infuriating part of my childhood
i LOVE THE MAKO! Also all the bosses in Deux Ex can be easily killed through a little bit of cleverness based on the envirenment and area :P but the fade was f***ing too long
ALSO BLIGHTTOWN!!! ASDHGJHDSAGLJHBFG;KJFBDA';GJ
You guys forgot all the "Silent Realms" in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword.
Lol, I know. I could have just harped on about a certain temple (you know which one) but I really think there are worse things in the Zelda franchise like that fucking boss in Skyward Sword that you fight like 3 or 4 times.
I liked those sections, really. Nice atmosphere and good tension. However, the master quest Into the Well can fuck right off. As can the gibdo puzzle in MM
+Arron Omus I can agree on both your dislikes but I still stand with what I said.
Silent Realms were a fun highlight for me. Every imprisoned fight was fucking annoying though and thats one of the only things stopping me from replaying the game.
+BreakingBeJammin I don't really mind the imprisoned fight itself but what I don't like is that that you have fight it several times.
The final boss battle in the Deadpool video game. it made me want to hurt other people.
A fun thing is that me and a friend was gaming late, and we were just entering blight town as we fell asleep, somehow in our sleep we made it to the bonefire at the bottom xD
How did the part from the Force Unleashed where you have to pull down a star destroyer not make this list? That level is nearly impossible to beat.
i actually liked the fade in dragon age origins.
James Butler Me too. There were bonus stat points everywhere in there.
Me too, it made me feel all mysterious and magey :)
I hate the level, but like the rewards so it's worth ig
Fade...no problem... took me over an hour to kill sodding branka tho!
I enjoy the puzzle like parts of it. For example in one of the dreams you fight strong and weak mages, but the strong mages only use fire and the weak mages die to one fireball from the burning form which also completely negates the strong mages attacks. Everything else is kind of a slog.
The yoga mission is easy
nobody said it was hard, people just didn't like it
ThatHappy Duck no you just lucky ur like one of the 20% of people who had a controller that could actually beat it
Weedboy yeah. I could not. Beat it on my old controller but once I switched to a newer one I did it in one try.
The only part that bothered me was the yoga instructor himself.
"Your lungs, they work, Michael?"
Me: "Oh come on, the prompt LITERALLY just popped up! You don't have to say it EVERY time!"
I love the Mako! After you get use to it it's awesome.
I installed a mod where I skipped the fade up until the boss fight.....good stuff
I didn't mind the Meat Circus. Not my favourite area in the game, but not too bad.
I finished those yoga missions in under a minute tf
*shows up to the party a million years late, with fresh cookies* I just have to say, Jowd's stealth section in Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective was SERIOUSLY the bane of my existence, probably just because I'm clumsy. Even so, whenever you lose, Jowd ALWAYS HAS SOMETHING TO SAY. HUSH, JOWD, I'M DOING WORK!!!!
Every SINGLE racing/time trial in ANY jak and daxter game though......and maybe it’s just me but the boss fight in bayonetta 1 with that lady where you’re basically in that one part of doctor strange with all the upside down wall jumping? Now I’m mad all over again 😭😭
why was the jet ski section from Uncharted drake's fortune not on here...
I feel like a weirdo, I actually had no dislike toward The Fade section of DAO. I actually enjoyed that area to some degree. Nice variety and thematic changes. At least the rest I agreed with, especially Blighttown and those FUCKING TOXIC SNIPERS.
Wasn't there another part of the game where you had to go to the fade? Where you had to go back and forth convincing your group that they were dreaming? Cause that part was annoying as shit
Luxaurus That's the main Fade part. A lot of the clips they were showing is the intro Fade segment if you started as a mage which I almost never did. Rogue/Thief types for life!
Also I may be less annoyed by those sections cause I usually used Shale and she doesn't give a shit about the Fade attempting to screw with her.
OgreSamanosuke Personally I found New Londo Ruins to be a lot worse than Blighttown. No bonfires, need of transient curse to kill enemies and (imo) unintuitive layout made it an absolute chore. Not to mention the whole Covenant of Artorias situation.
What about New Londo in Dark Souls, the freaking intangible ghosts made me miss Blighttown
How about the Valkyr trip in the original Max Payne? The one with the floating blood trail platforms and the soundtrack of the baby crying on repeat in the background...
am I the only one that LOVED being a big daddy in BioShock?
No you are not. It was one of the best parts actually, I don't know what people are freaking out about.
that was my favourite part!
Yeah just wished there was a drill bit that's what the second game is for
I also liked the big daddy section
No
I sneaked through Deus Ex Human Revolution but I had a pistol and a shotgun all the time. No problems with bossfights!
Same did a lethal stealth playthrough, Barret was a pain in the ass but I learned from that mistake of a fight and maxed out the Typhoon and kept plenty of ammo for it and energy bars on hand at all times. Every boss fight after took like 30 seconds xD
I only had a problem with Yelena. This tank just ate my grenades while running against a column...
I found shooting Barret and Yelena in the face with the stun pistol made the fights trivial.
The first boss was pretty easy when you realize you can just hide in a corner with a wall between the two of you -- the AI pathfinding gets confused so he just ends up blowing himself up with his own grenades.
A combination of Stun Gun and maxed (as much as possible) out assault rifle did the trick for me XD
I went and got Pacifist and the Foxiest of the Hounds Achievement in the very same playthrough too :)
I agree with nearly all of these things you showed... But. I don't agree with motorbike sections in Tomb Rider... Well... Without counting Tomb Rider Underworld jungle... Underground... Spider filled section... (*Arachnophobia intensifies.*)
Exactly, I always thought the bike sections in Legend were great.
gta iv:hey cousin let's go bowling
gta v:did somebody say yoga?
Why is youtube recommending the very video I'm currently watching??
Can someone explain?
Because once is never enough!
@@mainmenu32 you have a serious swagger lack most likely
@@bluex217 oh sorry that was 3 months ago when the foolish past me thought that was still funny. Thanks for telling now i can delete it so no-one else has to sit through that
the fade was not bad at all. wasn't great. but I didn't hate it. kindda liked it
tomb raider. 2007? bullshit. that looks like 90s. fuck look at hitman. per example.
What about BattleToads? That level with the walls was where I always died as a kid with my friends
As someone who just finished literally 2 hrs of cursing out the cameraman and their entire family tree bc of the janky-as-all-hell camera angles causing repeated failures in a simple puzzle, I submit the Power Plant level from Heavy Rain. The camera's already dodgy enough in the rest of the game, but its problems get amplified in that level and turn an otherwise straightforward puzzle into a teeth-grinding nightmare that makes you want to kill the protag for that section so you can get handed off to literally anybody else who's not in the godforsaken purgatory of the pipe maze
The longer fade bit in DAO is definitely the most annoying quest in the fade. I don't think there's a quest in the fade that I actually like. The mage starter one in DAO is also annoying. Getting Hawke's friends out of the desire demon's grasp in DA2 was a little tedious. And even with the plot points, I didn't find the fade part after Adamant in DAI particularly interesting. (Also a little tedious, but you can run through it pretty quick if you don't do the side quests.)
There are plenty of terrible areas in great games. Vault 34 from Fallout NV, for instance. Navigating that underwater, heavily irradiated maze looking for passwords is hell. Especially if you don't have the rebreather yet. The rest of it's not great fun either.
Spacetime I'm a bit new to dao, I got it free with gold a while ago, and you seem to know what you're talking about. Any tips for new players?
Super Cat Really it depends on what playstyle you're going for. Any details on that? I myself am pretty good with dual wielding, I can do archery, I've recently tried alchemy, bare-handed, two handed, and several magic builds that do not include Creation maining, sadly not good with Creation magic. I managed a shield and made/sword recently, but I'm not as good with those. Now, which one do you need? Or would you prefer some general help, like where to go, or where to get some good loot? I'd love to help out
Angelo Santos Preferably just general help, because I really haven't spent enough time in the game to have an idea of what build I would like. The one thing I'd like to go for though is a shape shifter at the moment.
A shapeshifter eh? A fun choice. If I may, for the sake of making this easier, what part of the game are you in as of the moment?
Yah, I was going to say, I think it's the Fade in the Tower that was meant, not the mage Origin.
And of course, because we all loved it so much, they sent us there again in Awakening.
Sigh... i still hope i'll see again a Lara Croft that runs and jumps and shoots dinosaurs with dual pistols...
There is that one level in GunValkyrie in which you have to do a terribly long, aggravating and unforgiving jump-climbing to reach a boss, which was also very hard to beat, and that if it killed you, would send you all the way back to the start of the level, with all the frustrating annoyance it implies.
"We all play Grand Theft Auto for one reason only... the remote control plane sections"
I died 😂😂😂
I swear....I was stuck on that remote control plane mission for MONTHS!!!!! only how I passed it was it glitched and destroyed one of the vehicles for me when I wasn't near it.. and I still BARELY made it back to the roof in time. I've been a gamer since the 1980's and that was the most frustrating time of my gamer life lol.
How about the entire Dead Money DLC for Fallout: New Vegas?
Dead Money was rough..moreso on survival mode..but was still better than the steaming pile of glitchy shit that Honest Hearts was
i enjoyed dead money :(
The worst dlc to me was honest hearts. but it was still awesome. fallout new vegas ain't got no bad levels
Wtf guys honest hearts was the best dlc. 2 words: Joshua Graham.
Eh, it bored me to be honest. Wasn't bad at all, but I found it too boring. By the way, nice pantera pic
It's a dlc, but the puzzle level in fallout 4's far harbor where you go in DiMa's mind.
You got confused, this is not a video about the most awesome levels in games.
The motocycle bits in Tomb Raider were brilliant (except for TR4 but thats (hopefully) more in regards to the limitations etc.
I thought this was a list of great games with bad levels. Why is Fable on here?
Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, all of the Oblivion gates
I'm sorry what now? I think if you don't like the Oblivion gates in Oblivion then you just don't like Oblivion
_Casing The Joint_ nearing the end of Thief 2. Not only do they repeat the same level twice, but also if you're seen _once_ it's NSGO.
the fade lol. I did that first try on hardest difficulty. now try beating the assasins quest giver
The helicopter in Vice City was way harder than the planes in SA....
took me like a thousand tries to make it on PC
One of the easier missions of the game for me.
Robin Dreier
Beating that guys car with a hammer might've been a bit easier.
Tough call
It was harder and it was obligatory as opposed to San Andreas.
That killer croc level from arkham asylum. As a kid I could never get past it and had to stop playing the game 😭
Yeah as a kid that section scared the shit out of me, it took me about 2-3 hours because of how slowly I moved and how much I got lost. But now, I know those sewers better than croc, I could do the whole thing blind folded.
Damn I was about 17 when I played that
060steve that's was easy
Ares fight from God Of War (Blank, I'm pretty sure.) and the Boulder Running sections in RE4.
Seriously, Ares you had to push the button at the SAME SPEED as the prompt, which, of course, was a really terribly looking thing, looking like a still button, rather than the button being pressed at the speed you need to hit it.
RE4, it may have just been because my controller was buggy, but if I press the button like 100 times a millisecond, I still get bowled over, I think my controller was not registering half the button presses, but meh.
The section where he might come up from the water and you have to watch where you walk?
Granted I was long past being a kid then but still did it first try.
Here’s one, how about that stupid escort toadette level in Mario+rabbits kingdom battle in world3. You know, the spooky one. That was seriously stressful and took me FOREVER to complete
I don't remember missions where I piloted remote airplanes, but there was a mission where I had to shoot them to protect some guy's satellites(?). Never could beat it or the game :/
