Ok Rynjin I remember I hated these guys, but don't remember why.  Oh well importing my party from Wiz 7 made everything I used to hate before easy, this shouldn't be any different.

3 hex spells, a sprinkling of insanity, and some backfiring spells to taste later, my dracon fighter is slaughtering my own party in random fits of insanity, my ninja managed to fumble and backfire both an acid bomb and a firebomb, my mage is a corpse, my musical rhino and ranger are cycling cackling with mad glee, stabbing eachother, and failing at the saxophone, while Vi, my tanky lord, and my priest desperately try to keep everyone alive and sane enough to accomplish something.

My fighter soon pulls a sephiroth on my cleric, and my party falls apart like a house of cards.   After it's trip from Guardia, then theft, then murderous meta doubletheft, the Astral Dominae has fallen into the hands of the evil psionic fishmen.  The only force smart enough to turn the overpowered PC aliens against themselves.

Wizardry 8

I had only one robot left in my fighting force besides the commander, so I called in one more with the last of my resources. The transport rocket came down, but it tipped over, so I decided to attempt to manually fix it. The only thing I managed to do, however, was flip it over to crush my remaining troop and then have it promptly blow up and destroy my commander.

Only 2 crafts are needed in Cortex command : the boxes (containing 30 grenades) to create nukes, and the dropPods (or whatever the real name is), loaded with 40 german grenades, to drop one above each ennemy

Okay, so not a death, but it made me die a little inside.

There's an achievement in Just Cause 2 for killing 50 enemies without losing any health. You regen a certain amount once you're out of combat, so it's not TOO unreasonable, but still very difficult.
For half an hour, I'd been swinging up and down a motorway, in and out of the jungle, trying to get this achievement.

I would sweep down on small group of about 3 enemies, kill them in quick succession with a shotgun then fly away with my parachute into the jungle until my heat had disappeared. Rinse and repeat.
After a very close one where a jeep appeared behind me during a fight, I melee'd the last guy and swung away, satisfied with the small notification at the top of my screen:

Perfect Kill Combo: 45

However, after sitting in the jungle waiting for heat to fade away and my health to regen, I could swear I'm missing a slither of health. But, since it's only the tiniest bit and I'm not sure if it's the little metal bit at the end of the health bar, I ignore it and press on.
After 5 more kills, another notification pops up at the top of my screen.

There's nothing worse than going for over an hour at full 250 stacks of Anarchy, kicking ass and melting faces up close with a shotgun, no deaths or interruptions, when suddenly a Hyperion robot jackhole decides to spontaneously explode on death -somehow- and insta-kill me with no other bad guys anywhere in the immediate vicinity for me to second wind on. Feels bad man.

Note to self- all Hyperion bots are pricks who deserve even more face-melting buckshot dismemberment than they did before.

I swear, spontaneous explosions are my one super-critical unavoidable weakness. Shields do nothing to stop 'em.

[tryrar]

you probably encountered an EXP Loader. Put those two words together and you'll know EXACTLY what they do. And yes, at full anarchy they can be a pain to blow up before they get on your face, since you can't hit the broadside of a barn at that point unless you're basically in melee range(unless you have Close Enough, of course. And why wouldn't you? )

I am so fucking tired of insta-kills

but i'll show them

i'll fucking show them how to insta-kill

Persona 4. Fighting Shadow Mitsuo is a pain, mainly because Attack>Gigadyne will insta-kill without a chance to heal.

[Thexor]

Spent a few seconds too long standing still, planning out my moves. Turns out, one of the patrolling guards can see the level's starting point from his second-story window, and will quite happily insta-kill you if you don't move before he finishes his first patrol circuit. I was studying the layout of the level, planning my first move, and suddenly there's a gunshot and I'm staring at the "reload autosave from 3 seconds ago?" prompt.

Thankfully, 3 seconds was plenty of time to get out of view, but still - did not expect to die like that!

Beats my many "Try to jump through window to tackle guard" deaths.  I am VERY bad at judging if I am able to break through it or not.

I'm pretty sure you'll know you can break through because the aiming line turns white and passes through the window, as opposed to remaining dark blue and stopping at the window. Still not 100% guaranteed (I once had a line that looked like it passed through the window, but I instead collided with the bottom of the window ledge).

Or just ignore windows and figure out a sneaky way of circumventing the complex security measures. Who cares if you horribly fail the time objective on every level, anyways? The game's nice enough to call you 'thoughtful' instead of 'slow'.

I was MacGyver, scaling my way up a brick tower wall some hundred miles above the jungle canopy. Lacking proper climbing tools, my hands were wrapped in sticky chewing gum, as I scaled my way up to a small window. Judge Dread had already been gunned down ("Dead or alive, you're coming with me" indeed), but Rambo still forged on ahead, jumping and tumbling his way into a room full of terrorists, black-ski-masks drawn over their heads. I looked up, and saw The Devil himself at the top of the tower. He and his terrorist army were the last things standing between us and calling in the airstrike that would liberate the fuck out of this hellhole.

As I climbed into the window, I saw Rambo opening fire on the room full of terrorists. Machine gun fire ripped through the air, and combat knives flashed as he cut a path through the room, and toward a ladder that would carry him to the next floor. As he poked his head into the next room, a dog wearing a ski mask (clearly also a terrorist) leapt down on him from above, and took him down in a single bite. Then it turned its sights on me.

I had no gun, only a pack of timed explosives... and naturally those needed time, which the charging Dog wasn't interested in giving me. Improvising in true MacGyver fashion, I tossed the body of one of the terrorists that Rambo had gunned down earlier over to the Dog, which temporarily lost interest in me, and started nomming on the corpse. However, he didn't see the explosive I'd attached to the body (and heck, he probably wouldn't have known what to do if he had. Terrorist or no, he's still a dog). The explosion turned both bodies into a fine red mist... but the sound also alerted the rest of the terrorists in the tower above. The gig was up. They began sweeping from room to room, looking for me.

I hurried back out to the window I had entered from. I was already hundreds of feet up, and wasn't far from the top at all... but with some 20 armed and alerted terrorists and rooms full of propane and explosives between me and the top floor (and with improvised bombs being my only weapon) I couldn't see a way past them. At least one that wouldn't involve getting gunned down, or blown up.

That is, until I remembered a trick I'd seen earlier.

I found a propane tank sitting on a ledge outside the other end of the tower. After checking to make sure the tank was pointed upwards, I stuck a small explosive charge on the base of the tank with my bubblegum, and hopped on top, preparing to ride it straight up to the top of the tower like some kind of mullet-having Bizarro Dr. Strangelove. I'd jump off at the very top, before the tank exploded in mid air, take on The Devil in hand-to-hand combat, and then call in that airstrike.

However, as the propane tank took off into the air, I discovered that I misjudged the trajectory, and it launched me straight into a wooden platform covered in explosive barrels. The resulting chain reaction exploded most of the tower, and took me with it.

RIP, MacGyver.
