Wow, I'm retarded
ere1055: a tid bit: I got in my boat to go to lakewest, and went immediately east all the way.
ere1055: It took me a while to realize why I wasn't getting to lake west. *shakes head sadly at self*
WesM 118: ahahaha
WesM 118: You're dumb.
ere1055: sometimes.
So what was the dumbest thing you've ever done in a game? I've done the whole "going to opposite direction" thing before, but I can't think of a specific horrible instance. I'll try to come up with something I've done.
The first time I played Kingdom Hearts it took me an hour just to get passed Destiny Islands because I couldn't find the cloth. B)
Originality is good, kids.
I spent like, half of the Wailing Caverns instance in WoW not realising I had a Tremor Totem.
The majority of the enemies are Druids of the Fang, who use a sleep spell, and my Tremor Totem is an AoE wake-up call for anyone suffering sleep, fear or charm.
I only remembered I had it after we were almost done >_>
>>> Saga Frontier 2: Enter to the Last Megalith unprepared and with crap characters (I didnt know you can`t return from that place), in the end I couldnt beat the final boss so I had to re-start the whole game..
>> The black orb glitters ominously... but nothing happens..
I cannot to this day get 'east' and 'west' ordered correctly all the time. So it's quite common for me to end up in completely the wrong place in videogames.
Edit: Oh, and in Morrowind, I spent a full year with completely the wrong impression of where Vvardenfell is, because of the above mistake. Then I get hold of a map, and I'm like "What the hell? That should be over there..."
The first time I played FFVII, I could not climb down a ladder right in front of me for all I was worth. It was the Sector 5 mission, and there's this one weird camera angle thing, but yeah, I just could not climb down. :\
One time I was in the Final Crater, at the room where most people put the save point. And I had of course saved. But I was only there for XP and a materia or something. But I couldn't climb back out! I was stuck! =( I never did escape, I think I just finished the game and started again.Originally Posted by Neel With A Hat
After doing WC several times with Shamans who can neither heal nor fight correctly, I started to learn the immense value of a good Kick or Will of the forsaken. Will is also immensely useful against the black deviate whelps before Sepentis, because they can fear you into running into Serpentis or Verdan, which really sucks.
Anyway. A dumb thing I've done... hmm...
- I saved at the one before last mission in the Will side of the story in SaGa Frontier 2, and I'm utterly screwed because my characters are underleveled, and I have absolutely no way to level them up.
And then there is Death
Hah, I was in a party with a Rogue was the type who'd be saying "lol wuts kik do?", a Warrior who was wearing all leather "for the strength bonus" and another Warrior who thought tanking was auto-attacking and spamming Taunt when it was off cooldown.
I was healing everyone, using shocks, meleeing and laying down AoE fire totems and Strength of Earth/Earthbind, all while maintaining decent mana, and my Druid friend was tanking in Bear form, so we were basically carrying them for the entire instance >_>
We were level 27, granted.
And damnit Tremor Totem is like, NEVER used, aside from little things like that, so I'd never even thought about it beforehand.
In WoW, I went to the Western Plaguelands at lvl 30. I actually got the flightpath there
In Halo 2 I kept accidentally blowing myself up by picking the plasma grenade, having it stick to an Elite, and have him bumrush me.
Super Mario Bros. 3. At the end of this really hard level in World 5, I get to the end only to miss the jump button and walk straight into a small hole, dying.
OH I REMEMBER ONE
A friend and I were playing old NES games for fun. The one we were playing at that time was Ninja Turtles. We were stuck on this one part where you had to jump up to a second level and then had to get across this crack on that second level. The thing was that the ceiling was so low that when we tried to jump over it, we kept falling down to the first level and had to work our way back up. We were at this for at least a half-hour, doing this at least twenty times.
And then finally, out of desperation, we tried just walking across the crack.
Yeah.
When Maxx Power comes he better say his Solo-Edward game.
And for me, it would be have to be not knowing remembering that Thundaga was Bolt 3 in FFIV Chronicles. Either that or losing against Chill Penguin with full armor and Flamethrower. Or perhaps casting Curaja on Leviathan.

whos' obama?
I know exactly where your talking about. Also in the same game, theres this part in the sewers where you have to jump from one platform to the next one. Where you jump from has a roof over your head and then over the opening the roof opens up. It took me months to figure out that if you barely push the jump button you do a kind of little hop and can make it across. I would always push the jump button all the way, hit my head on the roof, and fall down the hole.OH I REMEMBER ONE
