Games

Been playing Diablo 2 Resurrected again, so.. Diablo 2. Especially on higher difficulties some of those areas (Durance of Hate, f.ex) are extremely maze-like and the only reliable way to navigate it is to just follow the left wall no matter what.

Otherwise, I played a demo for a game years ago that I can't remember the name of anymore that was built around non-Euclidian geometry, so walking through a door in one direction would take you to one place, but walking back in the other would take you somewhere else instead of back to where you came from and such.

Head Over Heels. Somehow I eventually managed to complete it, after much trial and error.

I am playing Dark Light at the moment and I don't know where to fuck should I go?

All of fucking Bloodborne. Fast travel is great. Building into the narrative where you don’t tell the story directly? Fuck that.

Half Life 2 for me

Abiotic Factor, survival in a facility like Half-Life with crafting, survival and exploration. Really great game and it's pretty hard understanding where to go

SNES Jurassic Park. NES Fester's Quest

Chrono Trigger had me looking up guides as several points just to find a way to progress.

A couple times in Linda Cubed Again. The game's next objectives are told to you by characters, or through the in-game voicemail system.

However, there is no "current quest" screen so if you take a break from the game, you can easily forget where you left off.

Also, it doesn't help that the game was only released in Japan (and fan translated only recently) so there's not a lot of walkthroughs you can follow.

Beavis & Butthead (SNES/Genesis)

Casper the friendly ghost

Oh man. For me, Tetris. Every time.

I get past the first dungeon no problems, and find the heart container, but as soon as I meet that old guy with his kite in the tree I'm lost. I think I need to craft a slingshot or something but I've no idea where to get the rubber for an elastic band.
