Post games that fucked you up

...

Crackdown 2 instilled a passionate hatred in me for taking a simple fun sandbox setting with organized crime and taking it in a dark and gritty direction in every way. Fuck that shit studio.

I ended up enjoying it enough to give NV a chance, but man did it traumatize me to find out how not-Fallout-2 it was.

Command and Conquer four. They had one hell of a cliffhanger to build on and a set of solid mechanics from 3 and Kane's wrath.

And what did they do? they removed base building and reduced strategy to "bumrush this point and hope you win".

The story was abysmal and dour and the ending was just a disappointment. It also singlehandedly killed off any hopes I had for the RTS genre. It's currently on life support thanks to grey goo and some pretty decent mods and re-releases, but CnC4 put it there in the first place.

...

Fucking impossible

I have over 300 hours on this and i don't regret it.

Has nothing to do with the story.

Playing on the hardest difficultly and there is a part where you run away from a helicopter. It's so poorly programmed it's ridiculous, there is an invisible line the game want you to run down and if you are slightly off to the left or right the helicopter mows you down with a minigun. It took me 20 tries to finally make it and then my game froze during the loading screen and I had to do it again.

Seriously, fuck level 4. they start you off infront of a bone dragon and a staircase. and then they have medusa head flying at you while you have to go up a ton of staircases, and have to avoid bone pillar shots and mummies. and if that wasnt bad enough, the room after has infinitely replicating blood skeletons without enough time to go up the stairs before the get up. who designed this fucking level?

when this came out it was "babby's first RPG" for me, so i enjoyed it a lot. i could never go back to it, though.

Fucking RO2, man.

...

what game user?

The best Xenoseries game

Welcome to the nightmare.

Jesus Christ, this game will fuck your shit up.

FUCK THIS GAME
Is impossible without save states and even using them the game is fucking hard.
The real ending is not worth my time

this motherfucker right here. i was never able to beat it when i was younger.

game is Qix Neo, by the way.

i cant even get past the first boss

JE just finding the hidden special items is a real nightmare. I just give up in the tower level.

This shit was quite fucking sad.
Shame half of it was porn, it would have been better of without it.

Most people I know who played that came away with PTSD once they realized the last third of the game was basically a VN, since the devs ran out of money, and were forced to cut the game down and release.

Whatever. :^)

The final boss of drakengard Jesus Christ.

user NO

I don't know what you're talking about. The Meiya ending was pretty great. Could have been much better, but at least it showed that, as long as he gets his manhood asserted, he'd be able to have more and more time with her.

Yes it would have. I genuinely liked the concept and plot better than most anything else, especially the porn and horribly written sex scenes
IT'S REACHING INTO MY WOMB


Then I have good news for you…

Too early

I think OP was referring to the unlimited/alternative storyline.

Extra exists pretty much solely to get us attached to the characters first.

Meiya truly is best girl.
Alternative was infuriating as a Meiyafag holy shit

Pic related when it first came out

Nowadays though, I laugh and regret playing it because the choices didn't matter even though the opening of the game said otherwise

Just remember user, you did it for them

I want this fucking shitfest to end already God damn it, just fucking kill Clementine so I don't have to waste valuable space torrenting these shitty not-games

I don't even care if they kill off Kenny, Clementine could be a hooker for all I care, I just want this shit to end.

>Not leaving Wellington with him to at least hold his hand in his final moments and tell him he did nothing wrong

The priest was my favorite character but scared the shit outta me for some reason. I remember having nightmares about him as a kid.

indeed I was
Specifically alternative which I am yet to finish but that return to extra world was an added layer of fucking my shit up


I love them all
but Meiya truly is bestest

yeah, that ending was pure retardation

...

You should. He was working for (((solaris))) under the guise of -the ethos-. IE he was a good goy that sold his boipussy to make money.

It's amazing how a fair amount of WD fans went from having Clementine as their daughteru of the year to "Just kill her already and end this awful series." Even by season 2, she's not the sweet pea I raised.

Oblivion:Infiltration, I was young at the time and this quest inpretualr made me so fucked up, and it only got worse the further down the line.

Jesus fucking Christ that VN was a new form torture. Starts off light-hearted, nothing spectacular but at least it didn't make you feel like shit and then the ending happened. Whoever MC ends up with, the other gets to be miserable. Then the fucking alternate timeline shit happens. Everyone dies, except your or your waifu. Then the one that literally everyone dies. Tragically I might add.

You don't know shit anons. There has never been and will never be a game that did as much dmg to my soul as pick related. Just, just everything user. I went in expecting cringe. I got the cringe user, but I also got more than I bargained for….
No, game is easy to play
Cringe but expected
The game user, just everything about the game. It's like I wanna rage but feel a deep depression as well. If you shut off your brain, you'd do yourself a favor. But if you have even a smidge of respect for Digimon, the game will hurt you.

I've had some books, movies, and even anime that fucked my shit up, but I can't think of a game that really did so other than Isara's death in Valkyria Chronicles.

Got me twice, I watched the anime too.

Don't fear death. Fear losing Earth!

How was it in the game?

her death was pretty retarded, would be better to die inside the tank completing the mission or something.

There are few songs that immediately fuck up my shit like this. Fucking Alternative.

Compared to the anime, nauseatingly extended. Both share the disgusting element of being another one off scene trying to play up the hellishness of war, between the vegetables, and letting the two stars of the army that have offhandedly changed the tide of the war go because they were nice to one of your dying troops, and vegetables, and admonishing the one guy who figured out how to make your super soldier work and fucking saved your whole country's ass, so hard that he commits an useless kamikaze attack on the final boss, and don't forget the fucking pig , also all the imperials are worthless scumbags except for the main antagonist who is being so helplessly coerced into fighting with emotional manipulation and is totally not responsible for the mystic nuke she turns herself into near the end of the fucking game.

ALSO VEGETABLES, SERIOUSLY

TWO DAYS AGO MY BROTHER DIED, NEXT DAY MY LOVER FELL
TODAY MOST EVERYONE WAS KILLED, ON THIS WE MUST NOT DWELL
BUT WE WILL NEVER LEAVE THE FIELD, WE'LL NEVER SAY FAREWELL
THE E-D-F DEPLOYS

Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy was the only game that actively fucked my shit up. I was just swimming on the beach next to Sandover Village and 2nd pic related comes up. That fucking heartbeat sound, those glowing eyes rising out of the water, and how quickly that nigger eats you. I'm peremently afraid of going into water in video games unless it's shallow now.

It still hurts.

this meme needs to die.

How is it a meme?

I'm joking, its obviously not a "meme", but I am surprised by the number of times I've seen people express fear at the shark thing. The same thing was in RAC, and I only ever thought it was funny. It was only stressful if I was trying to actually do good at the game instead of fucking around.

I mean, in all fairness, she's still everybody's daughteru and shit and all the non-cucks still consider Kenny the most magnificent motherfucker to come out of western shit in the past five years or so. It's just that at this point we want a merciful death for them instead of this prolonged plague. Not even Clementine alone could of kept so many people going in S2 if not for Kenny coming back as well.

She will never die really, not after the failure of 400 days later in retrospect and Michonne. Please save us

Clemmie wouldnt have to deal with all of that shit and could be a happy little girl if lee didnt die ;_;
I miss him dearly.

Where the fuck is my EDF game with BETA instead of giant ants?

when modding tools come out, it could become a very real possibility.

In a few years time.

This game gives you trust issues, man.

This game gave me a deep hatred for liberals

Vic2 is inherently flawed, if you're playing without some kind of mod or console commands to modify some aspects of it you're doing it wrong. Paradox a shit.

You forgot that Kenny gave us Duck. Fuck him.

...

...

The porn was pretty horrifying too, considering you're fucking inhuman monsters

also S.T.A.L.K.E.R

He's refering to the moment in Alternative where Hisao snaps and completely breaks down. it's actually pretty good at showcasing PTSD with a side order of guilt then it's just one big feels ride from there.

Oh and Meiya getting cucked, possibly after you raped her til she cried.

inhuman monsters
Which one?

To me, everything was "Yeah, let's be soldiers! It's fun!" until this point. I got mad for a while, I wasn't expecting, but not too sad. This song made me feel though.
The part when Welkin and Alicia buried that enemy soldier was worse to me.
