Played far too much of Prey before realizing you can boost in zero G. I was wondering why people praised those sections so much when they were agonizingly slow.

I am pretty sure in Witcher 3 I missed like half of the combat features - flasks, signs, rolling lol.

I beat the original dark souls without realizing there were different weight thresholds for rolling. I fat rolled the entire game. Also didn’t realize boosting vigor was important for hp. I did 99% strength/stamina and only as much dex as required to weild my weapons.

sanosuke001,

Didn’t realize holding dodge would make me sprint in Elden Ring for like ten hours! oof

I didn’t realize metal gear rising had a block/parry mechanic. The tutorial talks about countering enemy blows with your own barrage of attacks so I figured I just had to stagger them and steal health regularly. Monsoon is the first fight with no minions to heal off of, so I got stuck and finally checked online.

Not a game but some of the stories here remind me of the time I discovered I could draw stuff on the screen with Omicron Basic on my Atari ST and I painstakingly entered every square by hand dozens of times to make squares move across the screen…until days later I discovered the magic of the for loop. I must have been maybe 10 or so at the time.

As an 8 year old without much of a guide at all, I was a very proud Magician on MapleStory… one who dealt violence with her trusty magic wands and staves… physically.

I didn’t understand what skills and hotkeys were until several years down the line when reading comprehension and life experience improved.

I started playing Pokémon Red before I even knew how to read. I had no idea how to save and just assumed I would find a save point eventually like a bunch of other games. I have no idea how many times I dejectedly had to turn off the GameBoy halfway through Mt. Moon. I was convinced the save spot had to be on the other side.

Tobiasisahawk,

When I first played I didn’t know what Pokemon centers were. Everytime I needed to heal I ran all the way back to Mom’s house in palette town

This is fairly recent, but I was playing through a good chunk of Zelda TotK after the training area without the glider. I thought going towards the castle was supposed to be towards the end, so I wound up crawling up the great plateau to the old temple of time hoping to find it.

I was trying to play without spoilers, but luckily a friend set me in the right direction

Jedi: Fallen Order

First whole play through on Jedi Master (hard) difficulty and didn’t collect a single extra stim so just had the two you start with

Path of exile. Had no idea about builds and tried to just play casually lol

2nd character went a lot more smoothly

Bjoern_Tantau,

Honestly, by now I’ve come to hate games where you can’t figure out how to play them from the game itself. It seems like nowadays you can’t play without a whole community figuring out what’s currently the meta way to play.

I played Valhiem early in its launch for like two weeks on my own server. Once I finally got my friends to join they were dismayed as to why I had dozens of broken copper pick axes in storage boxes.

I had no idea you could repair things and kept mining barely more copper than was needed to make a copper pickaxe.

The game got a lot easier after that.

Bloodborne… totally ignored that the gun is there to parry attacks and stun enemies on my first playthrough attempt

I changed my control scheme in rocket league like 1k hours in. Really needed the ability to boost while jumping among other things. It was a totally brutal transition, but I’m glad I did it.

Varyk, w The Outer Worlds was made with casual RPG players in mind, pitched as 'Fallout meets Firefly' | TweakTown

I got the game for 11 bucks from GameStop, and couldn’t believe how much fun I had, I actually played through the whole thing twice back to back. Which I think, Morrowind is the only other game I’ve ever done that with. Story and just everything was so much fun. Top marks. And I kept trying to get people to try it out but everywhere I saw it was only selling for $15 tops and I still haven’t met anyone who played it. Is it just the marketing that sucks for this game?

Yendor, w The Outer Worlds was made with casual RPG players in mind, pitched as 'Fallout meets Firefly' | TweakTown

As someone who used to have a lot of time for gaming, and now has basically no time for gaming, I really like an RPG that puts quality ahead of quantity. The Outer Worlds and Far Cry 6 were the two that stand out in my mind.

I’ve had to skip Diablo 4 because I know I just don’t have the time, and I’m looking forward to Starfield with some worry because it’s going to be Skyrim size.
