Can't sleep, bored, and got nothing better to do. SO RANDOM TOPIC TIME! *Fireworks go off and streamers fly around* Just out of random curiosity what are some moments in gaming where you just messed up big time by accident, or suddenly had a huge run of bad luck? Well here's a couple of controller smashing moments for me.
Dragon quest 8: So fighting this one boss, pretty routine not too big a deal. Psyche up Hero and Yangus and pound him for like 800 damage, boost defense so he can't hurt me and everything's going good. Then, out of the blue here's how a few turns completely destroyed what I thought was a surefire victory.
Angelo's defence returns to normal.
Boss uses desperate attack on Angelo and kills him.
Goodbye healer.
Yangus and Hero psych up, hero hits 20 yangus hits super high tension (for those that don't know SHT is basically what happens when you psyche up 4 times, it gives you one attack that does insane damage. My normal unpsyched damage was around forty, SHT attack was 400.)
So next turn yangus attacks and kills him right? haha, WRONG!
Next turn:
Boss uses muddle on yangus
Yangus is confused
Yangus attacks hero for 500 damage and kills him.
So yeah, now I'm down to a confused killing machine and jessica who's, well, pretty much just there as fan service at this level of the game lol.
Next turn
Yangus kills jessica, boss kills yangus, party whiped out.
Man if I ever get a heart condition I think I'm gonna have to give up gaming lol, or at least switch to something simpler.
