I don't think I've ever gotten past E4M2 in any version of Doom.

I think this screenshot is pretty self-explanatory.

The game physics got really slow because of all the bullets. But I'm impressed that there was literally 0 lag, it was completely smooth.

We got through our first contract (against bandits) while only loosing 1 person (unfortunately a founding member). Strapped for cash and isolated we accepted the first contract we could find. We were to clear out a hideout that was considered challenging. I get there and am informed it is occupied by some young orcs. I mean we could win and some casualties means less upkeep.

We slaughter 3 of 6 orcs but on turn 5 half of my band dies in a row. On turn 6 everyone but 1 guy is dead. On turn 9 an orc catches the fleeing brother and decapitates him.

Battle Brothers

[Arcvasti]

I spawned as a Geneticist, gave myself a couple mostly cosmetic powers and then wandered off to go grab some medical supplies because Medbay was understaffed and they needed the help. While I was gone, all of Robotics and Genetics exploded in a fireball, killing the cloner and my gene scanner things. Welp, I thought, now I'm out of a job. Or am I? My job is to revive people. There's still one way besides borging or cloning to revive people in this game: Strange Reagent. So I spent the next 15-20 minutes opening twenty packs of Pro Puffs to find the proper ingredients for it. Once I had the ingredients, I crushed up all the cigarettes into a drinking glass to create six whole units of strange reagent. Since even one unit is enough to revive a corpse, I used a dropper to remove five units and put the remaining one unit in a syringe. At about this point, someone called Mike Litoris ran up dragging his own corpse and injected me with something that turned me into him and did a bunch of TOX damage. I ran over to the minimedbay near the bar, dragging the other Mike with me. I injected some charcoal to deal with the toxin and revived the dead Mike with my Strange Reagent. After maybe five minutes of me frantically repairing the damage to his body so he didn't die again, he finally stabilized. He thanked me and then ran off to get on the escape shuttle, which had been called a while back. I followed, still carrying a dose of Strange Reagent. There's almost always a brawl or something on the escape shuttle, so there was bound to at least one corpse to revive. The escape shuttle was oddly peaceful, but there WAS a corpse, which I immediately resurrected with my Strange Reagent. He was still in crit though, so I applied all the meds I could to him and crossed my fingers that he'd live. He died again anyways and exploded, killing everyone on the shuttle. Turned out he was a traitor with a macrobomb implant and had commited suicide on the shuttle hoping to kill everyone. But the macrobomb implants don't work if you suicide via command and nothing happened. But the implant was still in him and when he died the second time he exploded violently. This is what you get for being helpful, I guess.

E4M1 is perhaps the most brutal of levels in the original

That level is followed closely by E3M2.
Brutal Doom.

I dont find E4M1 too hard. E4M6 on the other hand.... fuck that level. Fuck it with a rusty pike.

Sadly, I do experience lag when I go into yellow-plant zones.

What's funny is I don't play Guild Wars 2 but I know someone who is trying to do all the Living World stories without friends.  I'm pretty sure I watched her play that part and get frustrated.

Showing a friend Invisible Inc.  Intentionally playing sloppy, aggro'd 3 guards.  Internationale took one down in the name of Elite Liberal Justice, but future tasers take a long time to recharge.  The other two burst in on Decker straightening his trenchcoat.  A new option appeared - "Last words".

"I was getting tired of this anyhow" the grizzled detective cosplayer muttered, glaring at the rifles.  FEED LOST

"You are nothing.  This changes nothing." ~Sharp

My theory is that they aren't actually tasers, they're advanced weapons designed to make people helpless without knocking them out.  That way they can be kept under for an extended period without suffering brain damage.

[Thexor]

Definitely seems that Living World season 2 was designed for several people to do at once. I'm doing better than my elementalist, but still REALLY struggling. Died properly three times thus far, and at the point where you have to fight 2 inquest assassins I was REALLY pulling out all the stops.

Guild Wars 2

I think I've asked before, but are you on NA? If so, shoot me a PM and I can lend a hand.


On-topic: Last turn of the mission. All the enemy infantry are dead, the enemy tank is distracted, and I've got a scout in range of the final objective. I just have to move her over, hit the switch, and...

...oh right, there are dual Gatling Bunkers on the walls covering the final point. Both of them opened up simultaneously and ripped my scout apart, leaving me with no other infantry nearby to finish the operation.

The worst part is, the game stops you mid-action to warn you about those bunkers, a warning I'd completely disregarded last turn. So no excuses besides raw incompetence.

Some kind of glitch where anyone targeted with a fire spell had their mentality trait reduced to zero.  permanently.

Not a death, but as close as I can get: I was searching for a giant snakehead, one of the last six fish I have left to catch, for two hours.

I read my hitlist wrong and looked for it between 4:00 PM and 9:00 AM, instead of 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM.

D'oh.

Animal Crossing: New Leaf

I forgot how fun this game is!

[Spehss _]

Apparently the uber boss Lilith's poison attacks can kill the player when their health reaches 1, unlike EVERY OTHER POISON IN THE GAME that only leaves players at 1 hit point and requires something else to finish them off.

Well there goes an hour or two spent farming keys to fight the ubers. Cool. Thanks game.

Starting to think the ubers aren't end game content that's worth the effort.

My favorite example of this kind of shenanigans is a boss in Witcher 2 who throws poison grenades that bypass poison resistance.  Its not even a lategame boss.

[UXLZ]

Er, who? I can't remember poison grenades, like, at all.

Do you mean Letho?. I thought he threw regular explosives? I can't ever remember being poisoned by him.
