A game says f*** you

Fallout 3's ending. Have you played it? Yes? Then you don't need an explanation of why.

Too true. I was so pissed when that ending came up. Thankfully Broken Steel came along and said "No shitty ending, fuck you" with a nice big retcon.

Ninja Gaiden II could fill this thread all by itself with its "fuck you" moments.

Speaking of which, one time I was fighting the fire Demon boss, I refilled my health only to get insti-killed a second later.

Well, I guess if you mean INSANE ULTRA-DIFFICULTY stuff, then I guess seeing an insane difficulty spike when playing Unknown Modo on Tales of Vesperia. As if the bosses weren't already hard, though the recent ones were easier, Baitojoh gave me a hard time, unexpectedly.

Seriously, Yuri kept dying every second and all the combos I get on him fail because of the low staggering time on late bosses and the fact that he flies. I switched to Raven and had to spam Love Shot -> Rainsong -> Azure Heavens the whole match. And that match was a long time, he had fucking one million HP and killed in a few hits. Not only this, but he barely paid attention to Yuri/the AI and focused only on me, the player for the whole match, so Ihad Raven running all over the field. God damn, I fucking hate you Baitojoh.

Spoiler: Greatest literal example ever!

Oh god, I almost forgot about that. But yes, that's a great one. I really need to find a way to get my copy of the original You Don't Know Jack to work again, even if it is the censored version.

Stalker clear sky, got it the other day when the guide takes you to the second area its right in front of a military base which shoots on sight the machine gun kills you almost instantly as soon as you move and it was night so i could see where i was going but i couldnt seek past either. ragequit

xD, got off of playing Clear Sky 5 minutes ago and I COMPLETELY agree. It's possible to run past but the best way to deal with it is to go to the military area, go back, then go around and use the side-entrance to the Cordon.

Diablo 2: LoD. The very first time I was seriously playing through it. I walk into this "Oooh Spooky Tower that has a THING in it" I walk into the first room.

Two Thoughts: "Well this shouldn't be too hard, I mean the last mission was a cakewal-" then "HOLY SHIT" (A unique archer had spawned in my FIRST ROOM and insta-killed me along with this 15 friends). So I had to run all the way back to die again, then again.

Hah, good times, yeah Diablo 2 kinda eases you into it by making starter enemies on normal mode easy as pie, but once you start encountering unique enemies like Rakinishu or you play or you get farther it can get quite hectic. Still an awesome game though.

I've been feeling it occasionally in Spiral Knights, some enemies are just nearly impossible to deal with well. Teleporting alpha wolvers, huge crowds of robot knights in a crowded arena, devilites that attack with no hesitation...

Trying to get vehicles for the Chop Shop in Saints Row 2. They speed up when you press the use button, so you can't grab on. Not mention when they see you they try and run. It wouldn't be too bad if all cars behaved this way, but nope, only the cars you need.

Magicka.

Looked a lot more fun than it turned out to be...

Assassins Creed 2 the game is amazingly easy all the way through and then you get to the bit with the guy on the boat...surrounded by guards and you have to kill him without being detected. This include as your about an inch away from stabbing him it goes 'NO THEY SAW YOU TRY AGAIN' -.-

...You're doing it wrong. You know why you got the Gun just before that mission? To use it ON that mission.

That's not the mission I mean...I mean the one in florence.

I did it eventually but it just seemed really hard compared to the other missions.

All the fucking time in, say, any FPS Campaign where you can be 1-shotted, EVEN IF there's only one possible occurrence that may happen.

You can take Flashpoint; Dragon Rising for instance. In that game, you can, by any weapon, at any distance, at any time, be 1 shotted as a bullet flies through the air and hits you on the head. Otherwise, they just miss you 80% of the time. The other 20% it's either your head, and/or your limbs.

So, you run, run, run some more, run, shoot some asshole, repeat. Than, after 25 min, and you're almost seeing the end of the chapter, you're insta-killed. By a simple shot.

... Than you've got to re-do the whole thing all over again.

by the last enemy in the area, that you just didnt notice... that happened to me quite a bit during that game

BUT ive got something even worse. i got to the second last level of Dragon Rising, and it glitched. no matter how many times i start the checkpoint over, i complete this certain objective and the game refuses to progress.

therefore, i will never beat that game. hows that for a "fuck you"?

Ah yes, I think I see the problem here. You see... you ran.

In a Flashpoint game. Big no-no.

Crazy Gadget, Sonic Adventure 2.

O_O I still have nightmares.

 

[Hong Meiling]

Well I don't remember anything myself.
But as far as this topic goes, the infamous F-zero GX rant should do well.

Too bad F-zero GX wasn't as hard as people made it out to be.

Dragon time in Legend of Spyro: The Eternal Night. Jesus christ, how are you supposed to dodge ultra-powered out-of-nowhere attacks with Dragon Time if they come out of nowhere and your Dragon Time meter moves at the speed of a continental plate? This game was the first piece of media I truly hated.

And when Golden Hammers, Dragoon parts, fans and other over-powered items spawn RIGHT NEXT TO YOUR OPPONENT in Super Smash Bros Brawl! Really frustrating in Classic and All-Star Mode.
"Oh, you have skill? Fuck your skill, buttmunch! Golden Hammer FT motherfuckin' W!"

no more heroes 2. the last boss on hard. you can't win, you just can't, if you say you did win then I will assume that you cheated.

The electric level in Little Big Planet, especialy when you have to go through the giant wheel.

Boat mission in Florence?

I really don't remember, and I just finished completely replaying ACII.

Yeah one of the priests lieutenants during Bonfire of the vanities.

Demon's Souls

But it does it out of love :3

This game is like my friends, abusive, but in a way that I want to spend time with them :S
