Died several times as Tails, because it's never entirely clear when your flying power will run out. It seems you just float for a random amount of time before you start dropping. This is especially true in the Speed Highway stage, where flying past the stage for long stretches is the only realistic way to beat Robotnik, it's very easy to misjudge a flight and end up losing a life.

Sonic Adventure. Hey, I beat the game though! I'm still not any closer to deciding whether I like it or not.

It sucked. SUUUUUUUUUUCKED. I did 100% beat it though.



I seem to have bad luck with random parties in dungeons. Tanks that can't hold aggro or keep stray enemies off of other party members. DPS that either do nothing, pull aggro from the tank, or run headfirst into enemies as if they were the tank. Healers that think they are DPS or otherwise pay no attention to the party's HP.

Most recently, we died three times on the first boss of Brayflox's Longstop because the tank wouldn't grab the adds in the fight and they would go straight for me, the healer. During the entire dungeon the DPS would go for random enemies instead of focusing on the tank, and the tank would not use any enmity skills to control the mobs. I couldn't heal because I was being chased by all of the stray enemies that weren't occupied by either the DPS or the tank.

On the bright side, I ninja'd most of the loot.

There's an upgrade in the sewers near the entrance to Twinkle Park that makes Tails fly further, it really helps make Speed Highway easier (and more fun).

Also, what did you think of Big's stages? :P

On topic, died against Envy Demon, was not prepared adequately.

Oh, man. Big's stages.
I wish they were longer, and that there were more of them.

But itisnotlogical will need to share his own answer.

My own most recent death is I was mauled by a lone wolf right after I had just easily slain a dozen bears.

I've died...what? 10? 15? Whatever, I've died around 15 times to Deadlift, that shock gun is just so over powered and whenever you have the opportunity to shoot him he nigh instakills you to make sure you never get the chance.

Andariel's poison utterly wrecked my skeletons and kills my golem too fast for me to do much damage with my poison dagger.

It became a war of attrition and I had to retreat or die once the corpses ran out and I had drank all my potions.

/players8 is hard.

Doing the archwing quest, specifically the part where you have to obtain the blueprints for it.  SO far, I've managed to obtain nine wing blueprints, and seven system blueprints.  How many do I have for the harness, the last one I need?  Zero.  If someone claims that the drops for this are anywhere NEAR random and equal, I will cut open their chest and strangle them with their own intestines.  I hate this mission so, so, so much now.

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

Drop kicked by a Troll off a ledge and down a pit.

I doubt the choice of monster was a coincidence.

I posted my own answer on the previous page, but in short I think that they were literally Satan. Yeah, I was not a fan :P

Not MY death, but my sister's. She was playing factorio on her laptop, and went to cross some railroad tracks.....only to promptly get hit by a train and die. I didn't even know it was possible for your own trains to kill you!  :P

I personally think that the actual mechanics were pretty good. Not great, and plagued with more bugs than Egypt when Moses was around, but fun nonetheless. However, it absolutely should not have been a Sonic game. If it were its own IP, a few things were tightened up in the controls, and some of the more game-breaking bugs were squashed, I'm willing to bet it would have done decently.

Was repeatedly launched against the rails by a large brained alien-ish humanoid with telekinetic abilities.
