While playing games on hard modes, what are some major brick walls you've faced, whether you ever overcame them or not?
Pic related; I played through ZM dozens of times, with multiple 100% runs on normal and hard mode, and then I attempted a 15% hard mode run. Kraid was a temporary road block but I managed to grind his fight out in due time, but I never was able to get past Ridley when I was younger. Between the low HP total I had and the amount of missiles I had to farm back from him after attacking, the boss fight was always too much for me to endure.
