[Kagus]

Saw a bad dude. Knew dude was bad, so tried to hedge my bets and tunneled through the wall with my insta-death double chainsaw wand, coming out the other end right where the bad dude's head was located.

Bad dude spun around and got a shot off before he died. It penetrated my shield. I was blinded for several seconds. Watched in horror as a couple otherwise nonthreatening dudes showed up and proceeded to execute my helpless, fumbling self.

It's particularly bad seeing as this game doesn't have persistent unlocks/progression, sooo... That run's as good as one that dies in the starting cave, as far as the game's concerned.


Fuckin' Noita.

[Frumple]

Best part is you seem to have been offed by robotnik's cousin or something. At least you were murdered by a decent pedigree.

[pikachu17]

Dude, you were offed by a Badnik.

some lowlvl dude wrecked me with an electric knife while finishing to clear some underground tunnels near the starting location

 There's a perk (passive ability) you can find in a diamond shaped floating structure that, at least in my case, spawned far to the east on the surface, past the desert. It's called being of light, or something like that, and its effect is to pulse bolts of light in an eight-point compass shape, orginating from the player. Problem being the things cause an explosion when they impact something. Anything. Including the floor, walls, etc. And the explosion can hurt you. Not much per individual explosion, but there's eight of them, and it's basically impossible to consistently avoid the damage. So you get the perk. And then you glow yourself to a slow death, ha ha ha.

Get explosion immunity and then dig yourself back up to the surface. Then watch as your character slowly digs them self to the bottom of the earth (these mini-explosions dig ground right?)

Get finished burning some bugs attacking a distant iron mine, repair the damage, and get ready to move on. Then I get an alert that my copper mines(which are still located at my start point) are getting nommed. Where the hell they came from I cannot fathom. The only direction that they could have come from and not run into a gun turret or radar station(which they prioritize if they encounter) has no nests whatsoever in the narrow bit of land before it hits an ocean. And even then, they'd likely run into something else to prioritize.

I clear those bugs out, replace the damage, then I get in my tank and spend half an hour bombing the hell out of whatever nests I have in scanner range. I drive back to the factory, start planning where to start constructing a nuclear reactor...

I get an alert that my uranium mines are getting nommed.

Factorio. Installing gun turrets at the mines would work, except that because of issues with iron supplies, I can produce ammo to fully stock the turrets fast enough, and I'd have to deliver it by hand. The iron supplies would be eased if I could get the reactor built, and I could use electric smelters for a more space-efficient design. And of course, getting the reactor + extra centrifuges built requires red circuits, which I'm having trouble producing because plastic bars aren't being made fast enough for some reason.

[itisnotlogical]

I don't want to walk all through the ironworks again, so I try to slide down from the roof on some random pipes and things. I slip and die, although thankfully I had the presence of mind to save just after the boss.

I wish you could play Pip-Boy games to pass the time on long vertibird rides.

*Succession happens, some vassals are unhappy and declare revolt*

"Eh, I'll deal with 'em! I just need to bait them into mountains!"

Crusader Kings 2

Reminds me of my game of CK2 where my superhuman heir got murdered by the son with all of the negative traits shortly before I died, and the new heir got mobbed instantly. To be fair, if you want to take over, support the leader who you can defeat.

[AzyWng]

Misjudged the blast radius of a timed bomb, and got blown up.

I was even on Floor 5-3 and had just killed the Killer Robot, too...

Streets of Rogue.

[Iduno]

I tried the newest Hitman elusive target (the African Warlord lady). No problem getting in, killing her, and leaving the scene unnoticed. I never found the safe I had a key to, though. Or where she hid the usb key I was supposed to steal. I killed half of the people in the hotel at one time or another trying to search everything and eventually getting caught about a half dozen times. I started just sniping everyone with a gun so I could try to search in peace, but that got them to all gang up on me and take me down.

USB key was in the security room, second floor, in the wing with the band people.

Got surrounded in the jungle, shoot off a nuke in panic. My explosive immunity kept me safe from the nuke, but didn't keep me safe from chunks of cavern roof. Death by cave-in, how very Bay12

Finished Pilotwings on the Super Nintendo from start to finish without cheating, beyond one save state that was only there ‘cause I couldn’t be bothered remembering the password.

I apparently found the first, much easier

special mission

to be more challenging than the second, more difficult one.

I also made Big Al cry on expert mode, even if it was just from the Rocket belt mission. Got 90pts from skydiving though, ‘cause I’m apparently amazing.

Also, trying to land a plane in a massive crosswind on a tiny runway is quite challenging.

Pilotwings

lol, wrong thread.

Consider the number of times I had to restart Flight Area 7 and 8 and the four or so attempts before I succeeded the final mission as the deaths.

Particularly the time I touched down the plane on the runway, bounced up ‘cause I was going too fast, turned, and consequently crashed ‘cause I touched down wing first after the rebound.

Any landing you can walk away from is from the wrong game.
