    What’s the hardest video game you ever played? For me, I gotta go with Zelda 2: The adventure of Link.

    Today’s strip should be “Phoebe without her Unicorn”.

    Quitting is what the game wants you to do

    No one plays video games to build character. It’s for bragging rights.

    A great game is just frustrating enough that finishing it feels like an accomplishment with being so frustrating that players give up. It’s a fine line to walk.

    Must be a From Software game; if it’s “classic,” any one of Demon’s Souls, Bloodborne, or the Dark Souls games. They are indeed very, very frustrating.

    So reminds me of World of Warcraft. Originally it was hard and you had to join with other players to progress. This build a community and people loved the game. Then they sold it to Activision, can you say ouch? Activision proceeded to dumb the game down, they thought making it easy would attract more players. Well initially it did, but the game lost the need for community and cooperation and thusly we see WOW a pathetic shell of itself, with players dropping the game in droves. If you make something beautiful and wonderful, don’t sell your wonderful art to money hungry fools. They will just destroy it.

    Look dude, I like video games as much as the next bro, but I’m not gonna tell people that replaying a badly designed game constantly will build character anymore than reading a boring book all the way to the end would (key word: “boring”).

    Also, someone make a joke about games with character creation options also build character; me 2 lazy.

    I, too, was a big fan of Sierra games.

    I don’t play games like that anymore. I get all the frustrating difficulty I can stand from life.

    So I guess the newer games must be easier and less challenging?

    A game where dying takes you back to the start (nearly, you can earn things that carry over) and each play through is long is sunless sea.
