I am playing Horizon Zero Dawn and haven’t gotten to the first main event, but it gives me this feeling like if I upgrade all my equipment now it might be for nothing. I know that is not the case, I looked it up, but what are some games that are the worst offenders? One I can think of is Aerith in the original FF7.
Youre right its not quite the same haha, but I mean it does take away everything that is consumable when you go back to the first day too. Which can be frustrating if you were, say, playing with little sleep and decide to travel back in time with over 1000 rupees only to watch that all go poof because you forgot to throw it in the bank and the last time you saved was over two hours ago…
I finally beat the stone temple and decided to rush over to defeat majora. Unfortunately as I warped to clocktower the was a lighting strike nearby and the power flickered. All progress lost. So many hours lost, I was pissed
Go at it from the perspective of a speedrun. Helps with getting over the hurdle of doing things again.
