Maxvorstadt: - Permadeath. There`s nothing more annoying than playing a game for hours, dying without any chance to survive and then you are forced to start the game again from the very beginning. Can`t somebody tell those programmers that there is an invention, called "Savegame"?
Klumpen0815: Oh yes and if anybody knows a mod for "Risk of Rain" that disables permadeath and enables a save option, I'd be very much obliged and the same goes for "The Binding of Isaac". Maxvorstadt: - Loosing a game even though you won it. I only saw that in one game: Hammerfall. You can beat the endboss but still loose the game, because you didn`t find the myriads of planks hidden in the game.
Don`t get me wrong, I love Hammerfall. But since I`m simply not able to find all the planks I cannot escape after the endfight, and therefore I kinda loose the game.
Klumpen0815: Do you mean Hammerwatch? I agree and finished it multiple times but I always missed two or three extremely well hidden planks and in the end always "lost" because of this. Don`t get me wrong, I love Hammerfall. But since I`m simply not able to find all the planks I cannot escape after the endfight, and therefore I kinda loose the game.
Giving gamers a small easter egg for finding ridiculously well hidden stuff is good, but penalizing everyone else in this way is bad.
P.S.: Wow, thanks to the community, my english gets better every day!!! :-)
