I honestly don’t think these people understand that videogames are designed to be beaten. Like a team of people worked together to make it satisfying but not frustrating to beat Assassins Creed Syndicate. Overcoming the odds would be if Hideo Kojima sent you a grape and said “end nuclear war”

I wish I could go back to just before my idk 7th or 8th birthday and tell my mom thanks but no thanks on that NES.

But to your point, I worked on Syndicate and there was a great deal of effort and concern around people finishing the game - like, Yves was really worried about how people weren't finishing the stories and seeing all the content.
We are making entertainment.
Now, years later... It's pitiful. Just pitiful.
(I mean, I feel it too, but I don't brag about it online.)
i can’t speak for any of these other mfs but just don’t fuck with me specifically, nevermind why

In other words, all games where you develop places 😃
I don't have nearly the energy or patience to bash my head into a wall or achievement collect I did ten years ago.
if that’s the most adversity someone has ever overcome, they’re softer than an old banana
Asking for a friend.
Its only hard if you make it hard with self-imposed challenge or if you're really bad at games
Everything is just other people!
I'm pretty good (top 3% in online speed chess) and I still barely understand the game.
I came back to it like five years later when I had a better tolerance for frustration and I finally solved it but man did it suck
I've gone into whatever the game calls it in several MMOs and always ended up either quitting or just going back to building homes/bases and digging in my garden.
Seriously. How are we losing to these people?
...except SEKIRO. Personally I could never get the whole timing mechanic down.
Even a princess needs a plumber.
Shoot demons in the face.
Shoot nazis in the face.
Dang, kids these days are better at Rocket League than I'll ever be!
not exactly fighting for my life out here
Pretty sure I ain't some invincible uber-badass than can defeat the whole world.
"It's time"
With no other explanation
That's why games, especially ones meant for heavy replay, have a wide range of dif options.
I’m built different
