I love when they do that! Especially if both or all bosses are insanely difficult. Makes you feel like a god when you finally beat them. That's among the top reasons why FFIX is in my top 5.Smallfry said:Don't get me wrong, an epic boss battle here and there is a good thing, but if you have 3 or 4 bosses all lined up?
I have a variation of this too. single player games that make the exploration element boring but vast tend to mean it will require a full guide to play properly. it's one thing if the game simply adds it in as an additional bonus and you don't really need to do it to enjoy the game, but it's entirely different if they make it a crucial element, but make that part of it a chore. it's really a variation of grinding, when you think about it.shameduser said:Levels where you have to guide a helpless npc some where.
MGS controls are quite convoluted, but you get used to them after awhile. At least you love the game despite a "flaw" though, kudos for thatL3m0n_L1m3 said:Metal Gear Solid 3.
I love the game, but I suck at it.
Probably because the controls are absolutely foreign to me.
Funny, I actually LIKE this. Boss fights are usually the highlights of a game for me, so having a bunch in a row is like Christmas.Smallfry said:What this is, is basically things that cripple either your gaming experience or the game itself for you. Mine would be multiple boss battles one after the other. Don't get me wrong, an epic boss battle here and there is a good thing, but if you have 3 or 4 bosses all lined up?
So tell me, Escapist, what is your gaming "kryptonite"?
That's actually a good one... When i was playing Tactics ogre for the psp recently i played through, and once you finish it you have the option to bend time and go back to the first important decision of the game and change it. You keep your items, people, and everything (was freaky. I went another alignment and in that particular one, one of my best people is actually the enemy, so i had my version kill the other one. Was hilarious) BUT what i don't like (other than I CAN'T GET BETTER WEAPONS WTF) is that when i go back in time, the enemies level with me... and stay 2 levels ahead. So weapons for level 20 and i'm level 30. (and leveling is slow late game).Pseudopod said:I really hate it when a game scales too much with your level, making leveling up meaningless. I feel like games that do this might as well do away with leveling altogether. Elder Scrolls is the worst offender I can think of in this regard. I'm not against changes in the environment triggered by you leveling up, but when every monster gains a level with you I get really annoyed.
