Persona 4
I liked P5 quite a bit, and had this one DL'd for some time, but never dove into it. Gave it a proper shot a week ago. Great stuff. Love the story, and it's got that same P5 formula, so I'm right at home.
So i'm going along at a nice pace, and then I completely fuck myself. It took me a bit to figure out how the dungeons work, with there being no save points, except for in the final room. So I was grinding thinking the game was just brutally unforgiving, only to find out that it automatically saves your progress with each floor you clear once you exit. You just have to save after you exit, and then you're good. Fucked myself in the first dungeon, and died at the first mini-boss because I was so depleted. Took a break and went back, and that's when I discovered that you just have to exit the dungeon, and go back to continue where you left off. You need an item to get out immediately, but I didn't think much of it. Okay cool. Beat the first dungeon. Onto the second dungeon...
I clear three floors, do some social stats, go back into the dungeon and I'm flying through it. Hit the 9th floor and decided to leave because my characters were spent. Oh' yeah, that item you need to go back to the entrance. "Go-Hom" or some shit. Yeah, I had none. Completely fucked. Without that item, you have to go floor by floor all the way back to the entrance. Yeah, I died. Hour and a half lost. That's just great...
What fucking idiot came up with that shit? You need an item to return to the entrance? Why!?!? Its so pointless. Just let me go back, or have save rooms like P5. Why am I completely fucked without some dumb item you barely think about, that I forgot to stock up on? FUCK!
*sigh*
It's a pretty good game.
