The month was August 1939. We all knew war was on the horizon. As the crew of U-14 began their shakedown run, we knew that if we could perservere, untold glory could be ours. We would fight for our country, and make all of Germany Proud.

"Alright men, let's put her through the motions! Crash Dive!"

"Yes Herr Kalun"

"PRESSURE HULL DAMAGED! WE"RE TAKING ON WATER!"

BRRRRRR CHHHHHHHGGGGGG KRRRRRR

For the sake of the record books let it be known that Badassasaurus Rex is one of my most utterly despised bosses in history as of now.

Even when hiding back behind cover and cherry-tapping him to death the frikkin' robodinosaur of doom managed to kill me once, effectively forcing me to lose all 400 stacks of Anarchy that I went to the mind-numbing trouble of farming for the singular goal of fighting the goddam roborex in the first place. So I had to cherry-tap him to death with much lower damage because there was no way I was gonna make the trip to Sanctuary to amass another 400 stacks before trekking back and starting the process over. Eff that.

Aside from the constant barrages of homing missiles and one-hit kill nukes the thing has enhanced defense against all damage except explosion damage, and has the added bonus of shots getting reflected back at you. Even the 'splosive ones. that sucks, because it means even a single stray bullet that I shot can wind up reflecting back at me and cutting through my shields.

It was just such a tedious and unrewarding fight, and the loot it dropped wasn't even that good.

Killing Piston was pathetically easy and incredibly satisfying, though.

Anyway, point of the story being a robot t-rex killed me again.

Sneaking around an enemy faction's base with a lava bucket and flint n' steel and a coupla blocks of TNT. (This is 'warfare', so you can form alliances/go to war/be at truce with various formed factions.) Mine is very well hidden underground a coupla thousand blocks from spawn. I decided to just go find someone's factional house and burn it to the ground. After trekking northwest from spawn for about ten minutes, it was getting towards nightfall, so i went down into the caverns, broke my sword on a spider, and noticed a torch.

I followed the torch.

Steel door with a button. It's POWER's house. I'm at war with them. I sneak into their farm, set it alight, only burning a few plants, then the lone person there found me and started attacking - in my haste, I accidentally deployed a boat in their irrigation patch and hopped in, and died.

Sharks keep attacking even if they have 0 health. Also, they can murder you instantly on land.

GG, now kill him 500 more times so you can get a fire Practicable Slow Hand to beat Master Gee with.

Raid bosses at the moment just aren't worth the time and hassle. Gaige really lacks the survivability of characters like Krieg or Salvador, and soloing raid bosses are just impossibru with my gear.

Admittedly, a slow hand looks like it could really help Gaige's squishy self out, what with the healing effect combined with super high damage from anarchy. The one time I tried using a normal splatgun with anarchy, though, I almost always crippled myself due to awful aiming and self-harm from the projectile's explosion, so eh.

Those things can actually kill you? Usually I blow them up before they ever get in range :o
I Vanguarded.
Do Vanguards not have Incendiary ammo? Shoot the fuel tanks with that stuff and those Vorcha will explode within seconds. You can also use a squad member hit them with Incinerate or a related power and they detonate instantly.
Yeah, I was being kinda stupid in that fight.
Plus I suck at aiming. I eventually managed to get through it.
I meeled every krogan to death.
I always soldier, because the adrenaline rush allows me to compensate for my somewhat crappy aim.
Meh. Biotic action hero is my shtick. I aim to never take cover in this play through.

I rolled a one while picking up a gun. The gun slipped out of my fingers and flew away at mach speed, but not before breaking all my fingers and one-shotting me.

Curse you, damnable fingers!

Oh, and I lost all my 400 Anarchy stacks too. From picking up a gun. FUUUUUUUU-

I needed to disable a guard, and try as I might, I couldn't find a button to silently subdue a person sitting on a couch. (Unlike a certain previous installment in the series, I might add.) No problem, I think, all I have to do is chuck something onto the ground in front of him - he'll stand up to investigate, and I can sneak behind him and strangle him into unconsciousness.

I'd forgotten that my 'throwing object' was, in fact, a brick of C4 explosive. And apparently, you automatically set the timer when throwing it.

I tried to subdue the guard and drag him out of the explosive's range. I failed in both regards, and got myself blown up for my trouble.

Umm, should have read a guide before starting that quest, since that happens EVERY time (and is damn annoying to anarchy gaige users who always lose all their anarchy stacks because of it)

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.

Quicksand compounded with gunshot wounds and Hispaniolan heat makes for a very, very dead doctor.

Chopped apart by a metal blade during an (obviously unsuccessful) attempt to carry it up the ladder.

Charging ahead through the graveyard, Father Grigori set off all of his landmines right underneath my feet. I hadn't seen him lag behind to stand on the little stone platform.

I was trying to retreat from some machine guns when the antlions had the brilliant idea to zerg rush the position, effectively forcing me to stand in place and get blown apart.

Several deaths being shot up by Combine shotgun soldiers while I was trying to set the turrets back up.

Lastly, removing some debris with the Gravity Gun, some of it falls on top of me while I have less than 10 health.

Half-Life 2. I've played through most of the game in two big sittings. Are the Episodes available for (the original) Xbox too?

Eventually, i'll have a death in this game that doesn't involve either dog/smoker, dog/shocker, or dog/natural wildlife
