I got bit by this one. Went over to a friend's house to spend the day playing HHGTTG. Several hours later we discovered we couldn't win the game because I had neglected to feed the dog 15 minutes in while he was up getting a drink or something.
It really shows that Douglas Adams was an author and not a game designer with how easy it is to soft-lock that game if you visit rooms in the wrong order or spend too long or short a time exploring one. Most of the possible mistakes become reasonably apparent reasonably quickly, but not always.
Personally I have used Mobilism for years and it is simply the best site to download apk with pay options unlocked, although sometimes there may be crashes, from my experience can I say it, but it is not the most normal.
Have you checked that the apk you are downloading is compatible with your device? For example, depending on the age of your device and the version of Android you should download apk that are armeabi-v7a (old architecture) or arm64-v8a (newer architecture), although there are also apks that bring all versions in one.
It’s not an architecture problem, as I said, I downloaded the same game from the same web and the modded one crashes while the normal one didn’t. I don’t understand…
Personally I have never used a Xiomi device to comment on whether it is a problem or not, but maybe it is, maybe it is like Windows Defender that deletes cracked .dll files when installing a pirated program or game and then the program does not start for no reason because of that.
I know that it’s been some time but I just found this. There’s an option on developer opts that allows you to see crash reports. This is what I get. I know this might not be the place to ask about this. But as it only happens with pirated / modded apks, support forms wont help me.

I use it because it is in the Megathread of FMHY, apart from that I have never had problems but obviously you have to use common sense because anyone can upload a file as in any torrent site. My setup is a firewall (RethinkDNS in my case) that blocks internet access to the application as soon as it is installed and suspicious domains, download only from known uploaders like Balatan and do not give permissions blindly, and when in doubt there is VirusTotal.
I played Earthbound as a kid and got stuck in a golem without the item needed to get out. Since I got it used I didn’t have the game guide. No idea how much stuff I missed but I never picked it up again.
Don’t know if anyone has said it yet, but Fallout 3. There is a story quest where you have to ask a radio host named Three Dog information about your father and it’s a percentage based skill check that if you fail it, I don’t think you can progress (unless I am completely mistaken since it’s been more than a half decade since I last played).
To make matters even worse, even at a maximum 100 in speech, the skill check can still be failed. Again, not 100% sure whether or not the Three Dog skill check is even required or if you can just run to the right place to progress the main story, but if you are a first time player you could absolutely screw yourself over not knowing about this.
IIRC failing the speech check is the “normal” outcome. If you convince him he gives you info you would have come across later, allowing you to bypass the next main story quest.
Yeah, that was always a weird one to me. It’s one thing for speech checks to give you advantages and shortcuts, but that straight up cut 30 minutes off the game.
qBittorrent-nox is as separate as you can get. It can be run on the server without GUI. It also provides WebUI, that can be modified if you wish, but you don’t have to use it. Moreover, most (if not all) settings can be edited through the text file and torrents added using CLI.
qBittorrent, when Web-UI is enabled (doesn’t matter if it’s nox or not), provides and API too. IF you have a client you can connect and manage everything using it. However, the only clients I know are for android.
But that’s the literal point of WebUI of any program. To make it possible to connect and manage the program from any device from the remote machine. And there is a reason why most developers choose to use WebUI - you don’t have to create multiple cleants for every OS and every internet connected device has a web browser. In fact web browser can be considered the client in this scenario.
What could be the reason why anyone could be against WebUI? I can only think of one advantage of native client that has to be installed is that it would make of possible to associate torrent files and magnet links with it.
And lastly, if you would search for qbittorent remote client most likely in top 5 results you would find electorrent. I haven’t tried it but at least description claims that it can be used with qBittorrent.
Edit: heh it seems I managed to reply to my own comment.
They’re oldies, but both of the Soul Reaver games and the Raziel parts of LoK: Defiance have a two tiered death system. (Minor spoilers going forward, but I’m talking spoilers for the opening cutscene from Soul Reaver, so I’d argue not real spoilers.) See, after having his physical vampire form thrown into the well of souls and falling through an endless abyss for several hundred years, Raziel exists first as a structurally sound spirit in a world where most things don’t maintain any resemblance to their corporeal forms after death. After being salvaged from the well of souls and set on a quest, he gains the power to create a corporeal form that resembles wretched wraith he has become in spirit. But that new corpse isn’t him, and destroying it doesn’t kill him. It just releases him back to the spirit realm, where he can regain his strength and manifest a new corporeal form. You can be killed in the spirit realm and sent back to a checkpoint, but the spirit realm is by and large far less dangerous than the physical. Very few threats can follow you, and the soul scavengers who populate most the spirit realm are little more than fodder for a creature like Raziel to slay and eat at his leisure. So you regain your strength, find a nexus between the worlds, and manifest a new body. It’s probably my favorite unconventional handling of death or failure in a game because of its comprehensive and essential connections to the story and lore of the series. Raziel is the beating black heart of the mythos of the series.
I've only played through it twice, but iirc Detroit: Become Human is like this. Even if you have a main, playable character die, the story just keeps going, and there a good amount of paths to take depending on the choices (and QTEs, bleh) that you make for the characters. On my second playthrough, I may or may not have repeatedly and purposely got a character killed just to see how much it would affect an certain NPC. 😬
In every game in Suikoden series, you’d have to recruit 108 characters in total to get the true ending.
Around half of these are part of the story, so you’d get them whatever you do, but the rest you’d have to do some sidequest to get them, a lot of them are missable.
Also, you can get some characters killed, dooming you from ever getting that true ending.
Suikoden 1 and 2 in particular have very precise soft-locks.
In Suikoden 1, Pahn has to win a battle that seems to be a scripted loss.
Suikoden 2 (my favorite RPG of all time) is actually beyond brutal. There’s a 3-5 second timed input that doesn’t even make much sense and if you get it wrong, nothing predictable changes except you don’t get the 108th star (just one person having a private word with the strategist that only makes sense later)
I dunno which of the two is worse. I fell for the Pahn one in S1, but managed to guess right in S2 by sheer luck (it’s between a default “Watch Out!” and “Nanami!”. You have to pick “Nanami!” or you lose out on the good ending. And you automatically say “Watch Out!” if you don’t pick fast)
I recently beat Antimatter Dimensions after coming back to the Reality update after a long while. There’s a lot of depth, especially in the new additions. I appreciate all the layers and addition of QoL upgrades.
Bitburner was fun as an incremental hacking sim. I haven’t played it for a while, but I find it really unique.
I have heard great things about NMS, but I like generally games with ending, even with arcade game, I enjoy them more if there is some goal you can work towards. So, I feel maybe I won’t like it much.
