Knuc U Kinte posted:This is probably my biggest gaming L from the very beginning, but kingdom hearts on the PS2. When I bought the game I tried to hide what I was buying from the other people in the store because I was a self conscious teen and got owned by this 6 foot plus brick shithouse of a nerd who boomed "AHH KINGDOM HEARTS" to the entire store, chuckling while he rang it up and possibly activating a gypsy curse that haunts me to this day. Went red, but didnt care, because I loved final fantasy and this poo poo looked awesome. Played it for weeks until I got up to Maleficant and then the Riku fight immediately after which has like 2 minutes of unskippable cutscenes. I remember just hitting a brick wall against this fight, because my entire strategy was just cheesing Donald and Goofy to stay alive, but they arent available for this battle, and I just kept getting pwned over and over without even getting close to winning. I even broke a controller out of frustration by twisting it with all my might during the unskippable bullshit. This went on for weeks and then one day I went out and my mum or my sister left a window open to dry a towel or some other female poo poo and some kids broke in and stole my PS2 with the KH disc still inside and my early 2000s style disc case. I cant even remember any of the games inside that case but I will never forget that I didnt beat that KH save file and never will.

Chrono Trigger kicked my rear end when I was 8. It was the second JRPG I played, and the first was Dragon Warrior. I didn't pay attention to the mechanics at all, I just tried to beat everything by using my strongest attacks a lot. I got stuck almost immediately on the four Naga-ettes in the Cathedral. I hadn't done any battles with Lucca so I didn't have her first tech, Flame Toss. The Naga-Ettes have high defense, a lot of life, and slow your party. I basically just threw myself at them over and over until I managed to power through with healing items. Then I got stuck on the Dragon Tank, because I just kept trying to Cyclone it (it counterattacks if you do). On the Guardian, why would I fight the two dumb floating balls? I'll just attack the big guy (it counterattacks if you do). It was pretty much this for the whole game. Chrono Trigger's easy enough that you can eventually get through, but I got stuck on pretty much everything you can get stuck on. Giga Gaia took me like two days. I have absolutely no memory of beating Magus, but I must have somehow. Probably one of my friends told me what to do, or I just got lucky. Eventually I hit a wall. I couldn't do the mime minigame to win the Crono doll. I was just so bad at it. I had to get my mother to do it so I could continue. Then I got stuck on Death Peak because I couldn't figure out how to use the trees to keep from getting blown back down. I have no idea how I finished it. I took the bucket to fight Lavos eventually, and it was the most incredible experience of my life up to that point. Beating Lavos and finding out there was more Lavos completely blew my mind.

Bicyclops posted:it's still weird to me that Bethesda basically just stopped making games. I get that they make money by porting skyrim to smart watches or w/e but the rumor at this point puts ES6 in like 2026 and Fallout 5 in 2030
