    Regarding number 9: I actually found that being obsessed with getting all the collectibles was ruining the story experiences for me, so now on my first playthrough, I just go with the story, if I find treasures or secrets along the way, great, but I won't search every last nook & cranny. Then afterwards I play it again to search.

    As a single player, I hate it when trophies / cool bonus stuff is locked behind a multiplayer part. LittleBigPlanet often had bonus sections locked behind a part only 2 players could get. Or being forced to play many multiplayer matches if you want platinum. Good thing that nowadays, the online trophies I faced were either very easy, or not necessary for platinum.

      Fr or when stuff would just be easier with 2 people but you don’t have that second person like the Cayo perciò heist in gta. You can fill your loot bag by yourself but you gotta take more time to drive all over the island to find the hidden secondary loot but if you have 2 people then you can use a dual keycard system to open doors in the compound for secondary loot, even tho in real life one person could stretch across the doorway and insert both keycards by themselves

    One thing I never trust in single player games is seeing an abundance of resources all at once. Everytime I walk into a calm, quiet area with no enemies and there’s nothing but ammo and health or interfaces like suit kiosks and benches in Dead Space, in my head I’m like “yep, here comes a boss fight or some big enemy encounter”

    • @Alloveck
      @Alloveck Před rokem +11

      And it just makes things feel fake and gamey too since there's almost never any good in-story reason for huge piles of resources to conveniently accumulate right before bosses. Serious immersion killer.
      Edit for extra clarity: I'm not saying that games shouldn't give you ammo. Yes, give players the ammo needed. Just don't pile it all right in front of the boss door specifically, that's the problem. Spread it out more, or at least design a logical reason for the ammo to be where it is. Ideally both.

      @@AvaaSlays_Swiftie It's not that I don't want the ammo, I just don't want it all piled conveniently in front of the boss room specifically. Unless the boss is actually on the other side of a literal in-universe armory or there's something else going on that makes sense in-world, at least spread the same amount of ammo out more evenly across the map. That feels less fake anyway.
      And regardless of internal logic, even if we're talking pure gameplay perspective, I'm still not big on feast-or-famine supply placement versus even distribution.

Than my younger brother walks in, sees what I'm doing, and says "have you checked behind the waterfall". Such an obvious the thing, he than told me he always checks behind waterfalls because developers seem to love them for hiding things lol. Ever since then I always check behind the waterfalls, always.

    Number 3. I remember playing Doom and Doom 2 in the 90s and obsessively clicking on every single wall. Let's face it, hidden doors in those games were actually hidden. They didn't have a slightly brighter color, or a visible seem. It was just standard wall texture until you click the right spot and it opens.
    Gotta find those secrets so the stats look good at the end of the level, right.

    I felt the dialogue option part. One game I thought handled it well was the rise of the argonauts. It's a Greek mythology game and the option you choose is a reflection of a Greek god. So the more aggressive option gives you devotion points to Aries while the more wise option was Athena. So even if it isn't word for word what I thought it would be it still won't go left field bc it has to fall in that category.

      not necessarily easily though (lmao got stuck once in the night brothers village trying to go down to the swamp of sacrifice), but its always possible to get stuff you missed before

    I definitely agree with certain things with auto saves/checkpoints. Me and my buddies were doing those special challenges back in halo 3 and we were on the last level doing the warthog run and at one point we got a really dumb checkpoint that upon dying I spawned in an almost unwinnable situation because for whatever reason on reverting checkpoints in halo 3 there's that like second or 2 you have no control over your character and I would fall from a freshly destroyed platform, took so long to get to a new checkpoint.

But I was at the very end of my last health bar (because you get multiple lives in hades, usually three which span the entire run) and I finally put in the killing blow, he got down on his knee and dialogue opened. It was not over. His second form took me down in one hit.

    The optional path one is a biggie. With Callisto Protocol too. I was often running back and forth between 2 paths, not knowing what was optional or not. Luckily, that game had many different autosaves. Meaning that if you chose the wrong path, you could always reload the previous autosave (or an earlier one).

    The worst case of save files screwing me was the Bioshock re-release. I don’t know if they fixed this, but when it first came out you had a limited number of save files and couldn’t delete old ones - at least I couldn’t figure out how to. I got to the Atlas battle at the very end, died, and it quit auto saving because I had maxed out my save files. The last save pushed me back about 2 hours and I just quit altogether. It was so frustrating.

    The Twilight Princess Zant - oh wait no it was Ganon all along - fight was definitely one of those "really guys? You had to bring the ginger beard man into this game too?" I loved the idea of Zant, but I get why Ganon made more sense lore-wise. In fact, without Twilight Princess's lore, the entire timeline would not be complete, since it's literally the result of link going back in time at the end of Ocarina of Time to warn the King that ganon was going to betray him and have him imprisoned before he could take over.
    But come on guys... At least give us a solid baddie to deal with that isn't a puppet or form of ganon at least once. Vaati came pretty close, with nearly no references to ganon in Minish cap, but then.. lo and behold! He was ganon's puppet all along!

    My recent experience with the RNGods not being in my favour is the new Pokemon. Sleep is a good status effect for catching pokemon, and Hypnosis has 60 accuracy (basically, 60% accurate, before accounting for other factors anyway). On more than one occasion I've had it miss, without the enemy increasing evasion or lowering my accuracy with a move, 5+ times in a row. One battle it was 8 (or 9) times. In that last example the game was giving me freebies rather than fainting me (enemy missing, or using stupid moves), but my Mon still fainted because it just missed so damned much that even with the other Mon borking its attacks repeatedly, it still managed to beat mine.
