I kept playing through TWEWY expecting to automatically unlock the level 3 super moves (or something like that I don't remember exactly).
Near the end of the game I realized I had to buy them.

Metal gear solid 3 was the first game i played in the series, and through the entire game i kept only using the analog stick to move, and got weirded out how all the enemies notice me despite moving behind them slowly. It was only during the parts before you enter the enemy base that i realized that the D-pad were specifically made for moving stealthy.

>>385212465
But anon. If you knew about that you would have been done with Fallout 3 quicker, isn't that what you'd want?

I accidently some russians in a non lethal playthrough of the phantom pain (because they shot quiet with a chopper, and I do not tolerate such bullshit) and now I need to restart the entire thing because I am too perfectionist.

lol i did this my first playthrough too pretty funny

Oblivion is a good game tho.

My only big complaint with it is that it has one or two BIG flaws, but if you're willing to look past them there is fun to be had with it.

Played next day expecting to create a new character since I had not saved and the character was where I left him, felt surprised and, some time later, felt like a complete retard

In the first God of War I didnt knew that you could upgrade your weapons until almost the end

In dead island I didnt knew you could kick until a friend told me

In the order 1886 I thought Blacksight was a level not a mechanic

Blast. Mucked up my 4chan Gold Greenies.

i played through entire first manhunt doing nothing but mild executions.
when i was discovered more gruesome options on second playthrough, that felt like a christmas gift

Played through Bayonetta without equipping any weapons

The menus confused me, I tried to equip the sword and when it didn't work, I figured maybe it was locked until some point in the storyline. Eventually I just forgot about it and beat the game using only the quad pistols

>>385215751
*have discovered

Playing gold as a very young child.
Knew the word deposite, but didn't know the word withdraw.
Thought I couldn't take Pokemon out of box.
Spent entire game with 5 Pokemon in party just in case I needed to catch one.
Am retard

>>385214534
okay, if this is your first open world game and you are not aware of concept of fast travel (in which case you are too young to post on this site)
Otherwise you are a retard for not looking up how to fast travel on internet / in manual.

>>385213905
Wut?
WHAT?!

>>385215510
>rating Skyrim above Oblivion and Morrowind for combat

The combat was the best part about Morrowind. Once you get past the wonky hit-miss ratio (or if it really bugs you that bad just install a mod) the insane amount of options given to you makes the game way more fun than it should be.

For instance, my most recent character was a non-stealth archer who spammed the Levitate spell to safely fly over his enemies and keep picking away at them as they couldn't fight back.

>>385215784
I played through Bayonetta without realizing LP disks were supposed to give you weapons, I just thought they were some sort of extra rating or shit. So in the end I had only whip, sword and those claws. I also thought I had to equip atleast one gun at all times

>>385213905
What? WHAT?

I played through the entirety of Persona 4 without knowing that there were other social links besides your party members.

So I just assumed the days where no party member social links were available were meant for grinding.

I only realized they existed when I played through Persona 3 and found them by accident.

>pick up every item i saw

Forgot all about that I miss flight

>New order:
Morrowind+combatmod>Oblivion>Morrowind no mod>Skyrim

When I first played Morrowind as a kid, I wanted to cheat the game and used the editor to spawn a pile of gold right into middle of Seyda Neen. Being completely new to the game, dumb and not very good in English, I did not pay attention to the fact that the item I actually used was labeled "Gold (cursed)" and it was the gold you find in Daedric Shrines, scripted to summon Daedra right behind you if you pick it up.

So I picked it up, turn around and there were three giant red assholes brandishing giant fucking red hammers right behind me. The first one killed me in a single sweep.
It scared me SHITLESS.

I believed for about a month that it was the game figuring out that I'm trying to cheat it and just punishing me.

>>385217432
Hahaha epic lol
Fuck off, literally nobody can be that idiotic unless you are lobotomized

>>385215510
Absolutely awful taste. Oblivion above Morrowind in terms of world building and lore? Oblivion above Skyrim in terms of story? Oblivion above Morrowind in overall? Are you fucking sane?

I know that to a bystander, getting stuck on the bells puzzle is as dumb as it gets, but I still consider myself too smart for this game.

Jesus wept. The in-game tutorial tells you about quests and quest markers literally seconds after starting a character.

When I played LBA, I totally forgot I was told I had to look for clovers for extra continues.
So I ended beating the whote thing with a single clover. Man, I had to break out of jail a gorillion times.
