Surrounded by: 2 tanks, an anti-air halftrack, 2 snipers, an artillery spotter, several Jaeger, and various other infantry. All of them are very pissed off at me, and have me pinned down on a small piece of cover. I have two panzerfaust rockets, one grenade, and about 15 rifle bullets.

The game decides to autosave a checkpoint right there.

Sniper Elite 4. I took several tries, but I actually managed to survive that, kill all the enemies, and blow up all the vehicles.

Got to "Camilla" Mission in FE Fates Birthright. Suddenly my characters are back to being 2-3 shotted by everything instead of facerolling everything. After concluding that yes, they are, i decided to left that all for later and install dlcs. Somehow, i ended up deleting all my saves, a few missions away from the ending. I'm a bit pissed right now. Revelation, here i come, early.

They killed my dog! Those fuckers got the jump on us and at some point I must have passed out..next thing I know I wake up in the same place, blood, dried and wet, covers my entire body. I look around and see a lump of blood, bones and fur just a few meters from me. My dog, gods what have they done to you! They killed my dog! They killed her and then they butchered her!

Kenshi, a scorchlander and a bonedog exploring the The Crag. It's not a game over but they did kill the strongest of my two characters. I bought her as a puppy from some nomads and she was now considered an elder bonedog. Curse you skeleton bandits!

Was playing with excellent Mindustry and reached a point i finally got the "Salt Flats " mission of the campaign to unlock, a specific of that mission unlike all i did so far is that to win this one you don't have to choose to launch every 10 waves , but you must destroy an enemy core.

As i had plenty of several of the material in stock despite unlocking a lot of techs i could then play that mission (as every campaign mission has some unlock requirement + a price in various type of materials to be able to get to them).

I had a rather large base and several industries already setup (some i never used so far like water based ones) so it took me some time to figure out how they worked and make some needed connections and etc...
Once i managed to build up my defenses and improve them over time, i understood the robots my factories were building were very far from enough to even hope to reach the enemy core (as every enemy waves started to get stronger and more numerous) and the many defenses on the way.

So i started to get into making a lot more of those robots factories, but as they require some silicons, it means i had to setup a lot more of those industry chains that end into producing silicons.
Sometime i was wondering why there was no real progress, until i noticed that one of the many many enemy bombers had managed to destroy a single tile of my many conduits, leading me to having to repair so ores could get back into being transported, it happened so many time in so many different place that i lost an insane amount of time actually finding where things were destroyed , while the way too short timer between waves was going fast.

In the end i got to wave 155 (never played more than wave 60 on the other missions as i never needed that ) where things were utterly insane with giants ground and flying units amongst thousands of small fast bombers ones, i had a very lot of defenses but at that point it was just too much and finally one of the giant boss-like ground unit managed to get through and destroy my own base core.

Looks like as i finally understood how things were playing in this special mission, i know what to do first a lot better (as i wasted a lot of times and enemy waves figuring it out things) for the next time (and will unlock stronger robot factories first too in case they can help as i previously missed some material to unlock it, time to grind another mission), but man that was insane at that point

Killed by a giant albino spider that is, unsurprisingly, blaster, flamethrower and lightsaber proof.

Hitting the dodge button only works when the game wants it to work.

Jedi: Fallen Order again.

[itisnotlogical]

I ran away from the giant death machine. I ran away so good, in fact, that the game immediately failed the mission and auto-saved, after it already took me about 20 god damn tries to get to that point.

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.

My path was blocked by a guy whom I had to help. His problem was that he was approaching 30 and never had a girlfriend. As someone who is turning 32 next week and is in pretty much the same boat, I died inside.

Digimon: Cyber Sleuth. Oh, and the first piece of advice I found for him was "Try speed dating." Clearly I'm very qualified for this.

[Jopax]

It wasn't a death since I wiped out the army and took the city, more of an idiotic move. While sieging El-Kalabad I ran upon Sniktch while cleaning up the remaining garrison with Noctilus, a gunnery wight and a vampire lore caster. Stupidly, instead of running the fuck away I decide to send in Noct (who's an anti-large brawler dude for the most part) and the caster who's kinda ok at melee. Sniktch fucking melts them both in under a minute flat, then proceeds to sit in his victory cap while my wight shoots him slowly to death. So yeah, that fucking rat is a special character blender :I

In my quest to continue doing missions on Kerbin's surface without launching a rocket (wasteful, difficult, boring) or landing a plane at the mission site (involves lots of walking), I came up with a new invention: a drone-piloted car that deploys from a plane's cargo bay. Fly to the mission site as quickly as possible, drop it off, return to the Space Center where it's easy to land the plane, then drive the car to complete the contract objectives.

The first one did okay, but the wheels are very small and can barely hold up the rover's own weight. I beefed it up to the next tier of rover wheels, causing it to clip into the plane's fuselage. It flew okay, but when I seperated the rover the plane went "OH GOD WHY ARE THERE WHEELS INSIDE ME" and popped two of its engines and both wings off. Total loss of the plane and rover, mission failed, and Jeb almost died.

Found a lab and went down stairs, was immediately shot in the face by the turret that spawned next to the stairs, didn't even get a chance to run away.

Cataclysm DDA
I know my version is old as shit but I thought they did something to keep shit like that from happening.

[AzyWng]

While not a fix, I think it's possible to peek up and down stairs by pressing the "X" key (Shift+X, I believe) and then pressing < or >.

That should help lower the rate of instant death.

[King Zultan]

I just looked and it turns out my version is from before that got added, so I guess I've got to cross my fingers and hope I don't get shot to death when going down stairs.

Damn near rage quit(and I wouldn't be the only one). Spent too long trying to do the triangulation puzzle, even though I even did it exactly right at least once.

...Then I realized there was something in my bunk that I needed to attach to the computer before I could do the puzzle. After getting that, I got the achievement for doing the puzzle correctly on the first try.

Why aren’t you updating your game, anyway?

[King Zultan]

Because I don't like a lot of the things they've done with the game in the past few years, and the fact that they've changed the lore and are getting rid of all the sci-fi stuff and making it more tedious. While some neat stuff has been added it doesn't make up for they stuff they've taken out and changed.
