Specific example from demon's souls, happend on the first time I did 2-2. What occured was I went the long path through the level, taking a solid 2 hours to finally reach the boss, where upon I was immediatly spread across the wall in a fine paste.

I didn't think it was too much of a problem, personally.LaughingJester said:
For me, right now? Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia, since I've been trying to fight Albus and I've been exhaused while trying to kill him.
Curse you and your pistol, you soulless prig. *ahem* Sorry.
Obviously, you've never played the Halo campaign, or at least that I haveTheEndlessSleep said:
You play the game as you're supposed to, than BLAM! dead, right out of nowhere. I swear, sometimes I've been forced to watch the re-play just to see what the hell happened to me.
Meaning, that no matter how good you are, or legit you play, you still wind up dead from something out of nowhere. This happens to me especially in FPs campaigns. :/
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune. That one section where waves and waves of soldiers come at you, with insta-kill rocket launchers, insta-kill snipers, and insta-kill grenades. And of course, your AI partner does shit, you run out of ammo almost immediately, and there's ANOTHER wave-style battle coming up right after.
Seriously, that game was terrible.

A game called "You find yourself in a room" in Andkon.com. It's a text- adventure that basically goes GlaDOS on you.
This. You put one foot out of line on that game and you pay for it in blood. Reminds me of one time - my mate put his head around a corner on multiplayer and promptly had it shot off by a dude with an SVD 600m away...bussinrounds said:
OT: Minecraft's goddamn creepers. I finished a lovely little, cosy house. Up runs a supercharged creeper and BOOM!
No more house.
I recently played through Ocarina of Time, and in the Haunted Wasteland you have to search for flags to walk to, otherwise you get lost in the desert, lose a heart, and start from the beginning. According to other people, this was made easier in the 3DS version, but me with my silly Virtual Console had to stand a foot from the TV and squint the the point where I was seeing the goddamn "Return" button in multiple places.
The best part is that I ended up getting lost towards the end and had to do it again. To me, this was worse than the Water Temple, and the Water Temple sucked.

Well yeah... But lobstermen are REALLY going to fu*k you up! Use 3 clips, 5 grenades and they are STILL STANDING! ARGH!Zakarath said:
(also I beat Xcom Terror From the Deep on superhuman HELL YEAH!)
Yeah, I can't imagine playing a game like Nethack or this without permadeath on. Nor could I see myself playing Diablo or Torchlight without permadeath on either. Wouldn't be fun at all, the risk is the best part. Still, I suppose some people don't like if they have invested so much time on a character for them to just die, but as long as the game is randomly generated I don't really think it matters.AC10 said:
I remember that section and that was complete BS. I was yelling at my AI partner to do something and to do something more than take cover. I don't remember how many times I died, I know it was a lot though.King Toasty said:
I remember telling my AI partner to FO when I finally did get through that.
Actually; it doesn't have to be a boss, regular ninjas or even bats will do the trick.2fish said:
Mostly, it's just that in both cases it's so unforgiving: Both of them have it in the tutorials, it's entirely mandatory, you can't screw up at all, the guards (at least in SoF) are psychic, they're really hard to see, and both games (during the main game parts) punish you really hard for screwing up, even on the lowest difficulty.Schadrach said:
i meant i bribed all of the high levels and had most of the low level senators with total support or love and yet i would get almost all nays.666Chaos said:
Shogun 2 Total War on high legendary difficulty level. Tried playing with Hojo, great defensive faction but who can hold out against two full stack armies with a half stack at best. Old Operation Flashpoint was absolutely brutal. Biggest one i remember though was the ps2 game Chaos Legion, with the help of the strategy guide i wore down the final boss and fought my way to the end, only to have the game freeze on my during the credit sequence, probably just a disc error but i was pissed.
