[Rolan7]

Kicked my way into Assassin Asha's room, lodged grievances with my shotgun.
Was rather out of practice, though, and caught one plasma beam too many to the face.  Nanofield failed, semi-instant death.

... Fortunately I'd backed myself up at the 1-use revival unit nearby.  Despite his nanofield being a sliver away from failing, he was full of bravado as ever upon my return.  My second and last kill.

Replayed Iji today, went for a pacifist extreme run but didn't set the trap mine.  I didn't notice before, but the resulting kill counts... makes sense.  The dialogue for that path is so good.

Game still calls me a pacifist for keeping the kills low, too, which is nice.

After biding by time doing courier jobs and robot RTS missions and others, i gathered enough capital to invest in a good 900 hull ship with 4 weapon slots and no repair drone slot. Good trade off, me thinks. Decided to load up and go do some pirate hunting for the meloqs. Grabbed some missile launchers and went hunting, target was in a small pirate system. Jumped in and found the target, began firing missiles at max range. 400 pirate ships launch from the only planet in the system to come defend him. My family received 10,000 cr for my death.

There's another checkpoint somewhere else in the level. Granted, it takes a very specific build to be able to pull it off, but it's funny as hell.

Some kid and his grandpa was going around collecting adamantine out of some meteorites.  Despite them having a giant flying ostrich for transportation I need to follow them around in my flying boat to protect them from monsters at the meteorites.

I have been to every one of these meteorites before and didn't see so much as a goblin, and it seems that mr godengineer and his mini-me show up all manner of death wants to eat them.   I tried to save the two of them from a group of 6 sentient floating explosives and died horribly since they hit me for over twice my hp and seem to revive eachother every time I kill one.  If there is some kind of special mechanic to this fight I don't know what it is.

Final Fantasy 5

(I did end up eventually beating the fight, thanks to spamming phoenix downs and killing them so many times they all ran out of MP to use their resurrect spell.  I doubt that was the intended method.)

The mute spell.

Trying to do missile strafing runs on boats in a narrow space. Forgot my jet can also hover. Couldn't pull away from the canyon.

GTA: San Andreas. The sad part is, just after completing that mission, I took one of the other prop plane, landed perfectly on the highway outside Mad Dogg's Crib.

If I remember correctly, you get Titan beforehand, and I think they're weak to Earth. Spam-summon.

[BurnedToast]

Wraith sniper on top of a building. 6 shots, zero misses, 6 dead soldiers, all of which were in cover and had the best armor available.  It's the first (living) wraith I'd encountered, so I'm not sure if they are just overpowered or if that was just a streak of incredibly horrible luck.

To make it worse, I lost all my soldiers so I lost all my equipment, and I had zero cash to build more - in fact I was counting on the money from that downed UFO to keep me afloat since my income was lower than my expenses

The thought of restarting and slogging through all the tedious and boring battles to get back to where I was is just.... bleh. Does not help there's only like 3 maps per tileset and they all play out the same because 90% of the aliens just hide in the UFO every time.

I guess it's my own fault for picking ironman, but damn I was not expecting anything like that sniper..... and at the absolute worst possible time too.

Xenonauts.

[Nighthawk]

I was minding my own business, just hopping over rooftops and such heading toward a viewpoint. A guard spotted me and started to give chase, but he didn't have a chance of catching me, so I just kept running and climbed the tower. I synchronized and got a nice view of the city, but right as I was about to exit the panoramic, a rock came out of nowhere, hit Ezio in the face, and sent him ragdolling all the way down to the street.

Desynchronized with one hit. Rocks are overpowered.

Assassin's Creed 2

[Lightningfalcon]

Took out a guard post with Quiet. Interrogated all the guards there for information on where a prisoner was located, then Fulton extracted them. Was a bit of a challenge since they all had helmets, but we got the job done cleanly. I then had her scout the nearby palace where the prisoner was, and I started to sneak in. I am sneaking up to choke an isolated guard, when Quiet finishes her scouting. I am almost in position to choke the guard, when suddenly a dart pings off his helmet, and everyone goes on alert. There were multiple walkers around the place, multiple mortars, and a shitload of guards, all with riot gear or helmets. On my side I had one sniper with a silenced tranq rifle, my own silenced tranq rifle, a tranq pistol, and a silenced assault rifle with an underbarrel grenade launcher. Eventually I ran out of grenades, Quiet had her position bombarded with mortars and missiles, and I lost any ability to actually harm most of the enemies.

Or you can sap their MP reserves because at best each 'bomb' can cast Life2 about twice.

Rocks are overpowered.

For someone who shrugs off getting cleaved with a big fuckoff axe, Ezio is a huge bitch when it comes to getting hit by rocks.

I have a feeling he's really quite bad at rock-paper-scissors.

[itisnotlogical]

I'm sick of Unity's default FPS character prefab. I just want to walk around an environment and see how it feels, I don't need FOV kick and head bob and motion blur and curve-based jump physics and whatever other bullshit it features. So, I set out to create my own simpler, more elegant solution.

Then I fell off the plane I was using as an "environment". Depth perception is hard without visual clues.

Unity game engine. I... actually haven't been playing games all that much lately. It feels very weird.

[pisskop]

when something can 1shot you through a block its probably a sign you shouldnt be there.

... Which is exactly why he has two (hidden) blades! It all makes sense now...
