Oh yeah. That was probably the hardest part in the game along with the racing parts, but all my friends talked about how hard it was but I beat it when I was 10 pretty easily.pimppeter2 said:
I hope I doctored that quote right. Anyway...really? I didn't think MW2 was a particularly difficult game, and I actually found it EASIER on veteran than I did on hardened.UltimateZ said:
One of my biggest losses was with Wrex in mass effect. He was my best bud and I put so much time into perfecting him, but since it was my first playthrough and I didn't know what to do...the conversation went on too long. I left ashley behind with the nuke. *****.
Losing 30,000 kills in COD4 multiplayer (as well as a full prestige) but keeping all my deaths. My ratio dropped from a 2.53 to a .67.
By the time MW2 came out, I managed to get it back to a 1.70 at least.

Probably losing my first ever high level monk in Nethack. Also the character that got the closest to ascending(winning) since I started playing about a year ago.
I knew it was a risky thing to do and a very bad idea, for some reason I completely missed that succubus.

Sure, it doesn't look like much and I've lost hundreds of characters in that game but every Nethack player will know how much it sucks to lose the first character you knew could ascend.(I know it's technically possible to ascend with basically every character, but I also know there are a few points, from items or where you are, that that character WILL ascend if you don't make a stupid mistake)

dunno about brutal agony, but I'm pretty pi$$ed off that I can't access Tenpenny Tower in Fallout 3 anymore.
During the course of the game, plus all of the DLC's, I saved all my spare loot there. All my clothing, weapons, bottlecaps, spare crap and my 20 collected bobble heads were saved in the Tenpenny Tower apartment. Oh yeah, also the 20 Nuka cola quantums I was saving for some quest...
Unfortunately, now I can't get there myself. Every time I try, the game freezes and I have to reboot. There are threads on the internet about this problem, but the solution doesn't work for me.
There's no way I'm starting that game again, if I want to play it further, I just have to grin and bear it.

I never meant to give this impression of the game, because I love it to bits. And the 2 areas before King Doran are great leveling spots so regaining them won't be to hard. But that moment when he drained my soul level just hit me like a ton of bricks.Finbark said:
This IS one of the best RPGs out there if only for the delicious atmosphere. A wonderful mixture of Silent Hill and Shadow of The Colossus.
Let's see here: it's a tie between Oblivion and Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War Winter Assault (the first expansion.)
Oblivion is a great game that I would have totally gone on to finish 100%, if it were not for the leveling system. Oblivion's leveling system made me WEEP TEARS OF BLOOD, for I am a semi-munchkin: I enjoy games like Mass Effect and Final Fantasy X/XII where I can grind myself silly an eventually attain god-like prowess on the battlefield thanks to appropriately used skill points.
Oblivion hates munchkins and wishes to destroy them, and thanks to that I can have no fun with the game.
DoW 40k: WA suffered from having an insane level of difficulty. Pretty much all the later missions in it are like the last mission of Starcraft (managing two armies) on steriods: even more so thanks to the time limits the damn game imposes on you.

Well, to me the characters and story were brutal and agonizing enough without the boss battles.
Indeed, veterain is REDICULOUS. I absolutely hated One Shot One Kill and the stage after that... so, so many deaths... *whimper*UltimateZ said:
But draining your character level is one of the things a game simply SHOULD NOT DO. Okay, remove experience and possibly de-level if you die, sure, but do NOT give enemies abilities that permanantly reduce your level! Temporaraly, sure, but not permanently.
I knew that Demons Souls was meant to be hard, but that is one of the biggest smacks of FAKE difficulty I've ever seen.
Actually there is level drain in Spire in Fable 2, if you don't do as you are told! Sucks, but you get it back with a little work, no big deal!
My gaming loss was over 60 hours on Pokemon yellow at the hands of my son who apparently didn't take kindly to me hogging his Gameboy Colour or his game! Who knew?
