Ever feel like this game just hates you?

[Yarpie]

Demon's Souls. The again, it was made to be a sniveling, rabid badger with a taste for human flesh so strong that you can smell it when you open the case. With that in mind, though, at least it's a friendly badger...before it rips your heart out with its face.

Pretty much what I was thinking, although some parts of the game just seems to be there as a way for the game so scream "FUCK YOU!" an kick you in the nuts so hard that you actually change gender.

Like when you are almost at the end of a section, you can see the fog leading to the demon and you take comfort in that at least now you know a decent way to get here. Then the game just decides that no, you are not going to feel good about getting this far, so it sets up an ambush which WILL kill you unless you know exactly from what angle the enemies will attack from. Game over, souls lost, low on healing items, can't get back to the bloodstain. FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUU-

I also love the part of the first section with the skeletons (can't remember the name right now), where after you have made it through the sewers (where one of the aforementioned ambushes takes place), you start to plan your route, only to find that you are now under fire by giant flying sting rays, shooting big spiky things at you. Not only that, if you make a wrong turn, you end of aggroing an elite red eyed skeleton, which most likely will slice you in half. Again, the game just flips you off and proceeds to stomp you face in with a boot covered in rotten shrimp salad.

Dragon Age: "Oh hey, looks like I get to fight my first mag...WTF just happened?" Becoming a Templar was very satisfying.

Pokemon Battle Revolution (I ONLY got it for the matchmaking system)

I swear to god, I cannot use my Empoleon, he doesn't suck but 90% of the time he gets critical hitted. No abilities or anything like that to boost the chance, its just the "Oh you know what? Fuck you, Empoleon dies because we say so"

Call of Duty: World at War on veteran.

I totally agree. Grenade spam out the aaaasssssss. Then my friends game glitched on relentless and he had to start it over. I was like haha loser. Then while stuck on Heart of the Reich(fuck you genades) decided to replay some levels on co-op with friends. Well, then said friend helped me by beat HotR for me and I finally finished the game...only to realize that all of my previous data had been erased. I have every fuckin trophy for beating every fuckin level on Vet, but I don't have either War Hero trophies nor the one for beating all the Eastern Front missions all because the game doesn't recognize me as beating the levels. Not to mention I have to get all the death cards all over again.

Empire: Total War. I'm playing as Prussia. I'm at war with the Austrians. I'm winning. They split their large army into individual units and swarm all over my empire burning down my production buildings, draining my finances and effectively bringing the Prussian Empire to its knees without a single battle.

This game has no sense of historical accuracy. And I agree most RTS have a tendency to suddenly turn the game when you least expect it.

Also, I want to name Red Dead Redemption. Call me a mad man but the guys you play poker with can't be player-friendly. I get a good hand and raise by a little bit, they leave immediately. I get a bad hand and raise to bluff they proceed to stay in and kick my ass. Not to forget for some reason every time I get high cards the ones on the table are low and vice-versa.
Seriously, the game itself is great but I think poker was designed by the lobby against gambling to make you hate the game...

Really? Nobody else has turned the corner with their syringe out to find an enraged Fleshpound in their face? I nominate Killing Floor.

Mass Effect, no matter what the AI is focused on killing me

So, in the single player game, the AI is focused on killing you? Go figure.

As for me, In the game Supreme Commander, whenever I play co-op against an AI about easy, I get nuked. It doesn't even matter if i build anti nukes, they manage to build like 3 silos, i get wrecked, and my ally always wins with like 1 weak experimental.

I have two team mates, even when I'm in cover they are still focused on me, the only time they even notice that my team mates are there is when I go invisible and once that is done they stop what they're doing and turn to me again. Its annoying since my shields get cut through like butter so then I have to get in cover again making fire fights last much longer than I could actually take them all out.

Only time the game really hates you.

Snippity sandwich

My friend was playing the dungeon level, with all the Cthulhu headed people, and pretty far into it. He then, turned a sharp corner and fell down a hole which he couldn't see. This hole did not kill him, oh no. It sent him back to the beginning of the level. At least when you die, you have the monsters give you something do to. There is nothing more aggravating that navigating those tunnels. At least the mini-map is helpful.




...oh wait.
