Since my earlier years were spent watching my cousins play video games as much as they were actually playing them, I can't really think of any real "noobish" move I've made, as I've always had a generally good grasp of how to play the game.
However, there are some stupid things I've done, usually involving tactical RPGs and making a mistake with a move or an action. In those games, even one screw-up like that can be deadly.
When I first play FF X, I was "level" 20 plus when I fight the boss in Luca....-_-
Well, VIII was my first Final Fantasy, and the first time I ever played it I got all the way to the end of disc one before I learned you could junction magic to your stats. (It was also my first ever RPG period, mind you) Imagine my surprise and happiness when Irvines HP went from about 900 to about 1500!
I shudder when I think about that NOOBNESS!
giving aeris the ribbon when you first find it in the temple - nuff' said...
I still have my noob problem. I avoid leveling up at all costs and end up being destroyed at the end of the game. This happened particularly in FFVIII, at the end of the third disc. I got stuck at a boss battle, all the random enemies there gave a total of ONE experience point, and I don't remember being able to get out of there. (Been awhile, so I don't know for sure.) I never beat it. ^^
Other than that... I can't think of anything.
Before I started playing video games, I watched my Dad play them alot - so I got a good idea of what to do. I can't remember to many noobish sort of things I did.
But the first time I went to the 'Tomb of the Unknown King' in VIII, I spent at least half an hour lost in the damn thing. But I'm sure nearly everyone gets lost in that tomb at least once.
In FFVII, I got stuck in the Temple of the Ancients, in that labriynth type bit. I was lost there for AGES, I even got a strategy guide to help me (before the days of teh internets for me) and it was just a simple turn to the right or SOMETHING like that.
What else...? Uhh...probably saving over old games and stuff :p
In FFIX I didn´t understand how to teach skills at the start:eep:
Ooo Ooo.... this is a good one. I just did this last night.
I was fighting Atma Weapon on VI, and I was getting wasted. Shadow was the only one who knew Life and I was out of Phoenix Downs. It was one of the hardest boss fights ever. Long story short, I beat him after what felt like hours. Everyone was alive, but had sh!# for HP except for Shadow, who then proceeded to leave the party. I wanted to go back and save, but I took one step and got into a fight with a pair of Ninjas, who almost instantly killed me with their stupid Water Edges. :mad: :mad: :mad:
FF8- missing half the GFs in the game
FF9- Taking several game-overs to realize that you had to kill the Black Waltz 1 before you could kill sealion. :riiight: My dignity is still bruised over that one.
I cant say I feel very n00bish on games. I sometimes forget to save and die and have a long way to trek ....
FFTA- Finishing the story and breaking the law
FFCC- In River Bell Path I saw the broken bridge and said "Guess I can't go through there
FFX- Couldn't make myway through sin
I never did anything noobieish. I was born to play Final Fantasy.
Well actually. If you spend all your time trying to steal from the Sealion and Black Waltz 1 you can wait for your trance to reach its fullest and then kill the Sealion with "Free Energy". It's actually pretty easy to do that I dont know why people say you cant do that.Quote:

So we lost the location of the Air Garden and felt the mighty force that is Ozma
Well, when I started playing FFX, I thought I was enjoying it. I was worried I was becoming the dreaded "NOOBIE". I later realized I was a masochist.
It was a load off my shoulders.
