I am playing Horizon Zero Dawn and haven’t gotten to the first main event, but it gives me this feeling like if I upgrade all my equipment now it might be for nothing. I know that is not the case, I looked it up, but what are some games that are the worst offenders? One I can think of is Aerith in the original FF7.
I finally beat the stone temple and decided to rush over to defeat majora. Unfortunately as I warped to clocktower the was a lighting strike nearby and the power flickered. All progress lost. So many hours lost, I was pissed
Go at it from the perspective of a speedrun. Helps with getting over the hurdle of doing things again.
