>game that you played all the way through without knowing about a basic feature
What game and what feature /v/?
I'll start.
Didn't know Mad Max had a first person button.
>>319428767
I didn't know you could fast travel in skyrim, it was only 100+ hours into my modded playthrough that I realized because of the hud changes to my map indicating it.I liked the game better not knowing, it feels like cheating and I don't use it, i'm an immersion fag who likes mods like frostfall
Didn't know you could strafe in Doom.I played the entire game using the mouse and always had IDKFA and IDDQD on. I noclipped relentlessly too.
>>319429173
both games
>>319428767
i finished hotline miami without lock-on feature. i realized when i watched some other gameplay videos.
Nowhere in this game does it mention the counter move
>not looking through the controls before playing
>>319429458
What was up with late 90s Nomura designs skipping out on noses
>>319428993
Skyrim would have been a lot better if it had transportation at cities rather than fast travel
>>319429974
>game has a tutorial on all buttons except one
why would I check when they made it seem like I should know all controls?
In Mario 3D World, I didn't know you could actually put yourself in a Koopa shell that you were holding and slide everywhere in it.
>>319430120
It had that too
>>319430210
There isn't a tutorial that covers every single button. Or I don't know about consolegames, but at least on PC.
I played 150 hours of Mount and Blade Warband before knowing you can speed up time by pressing CTRL + Space
didn't know there was a run button in super meat boy, finally found out after clearing the first world and not being able to advance in the second one
>>319430407
I had the same thing.
Found it out then realised I could cut the game time by like 90%
Revengeance has block
Undertale has a focus button like touhou
>>319428767
I didnt know you could heal in Metal Gear Revengeance until I got to MonsoonI was playing on hard and he was a dick my first time through
>>319431389
To add to this I also didnt know I could lock on until I beat the game 5 times on different difficulties
I went to 2 MTG Drafts before finding out that the number next to the Land you needed to play that card wasn't an indication of needing that many of that Land, but just an overall number of any Land.
>>319431012
>>319431389
Does Revengeance just not tell you how to play the game?
>>319431587
It's a system that rewards super agression. Even the parry does a follow up hit.
>>319430040
It was so people didn't expect to see noses on the in game model.
I didn't know I could dash and jump in a Mario game.
>>319430120
>no mammoth rides
kill me
I didn't know you can "jump" over trenches via running in Doom.
Made it impossible for me to get a key card in one level.
Didn't know that you could use dead-eye in Red Dead Redemotion until the tutorial for the second stage of it
Using the Dpad in MGS3 makes Snake move completely silently
>>319431928
Damn, that game has aged like milk. The gameplay is still solid though
>>319428767
MGRR doesn't tell you you can move while in blade mode.
MGS1 doesn't tell you you can move and shoot.
>>319430210
>M+KB
>not checking if crouch is on L-Ctrl or not in the controls menu and going through all the other keys as well in the mean time
>gamepad
>not going through all the possible buttons to get a better feel of the controls
Clicking L3 + R3 switches Alastor to Ifrit and vice versa in Devil May Cry 1.
I didn't know how to upgrade items in Demon's Souls for the majority of the game.
Everyone said it was a hard game so I just went with it. Oh boy was it hard.
>>319428767
Because I fucked up plugging the cables into my TV somehow, I played though the entire first Gears of War game in black and white, not realising that it was supposed to have colour.Being that it was right in the middle of that whole grimdark period, there was minimal difference when I replayed it in colour.
>>319432063
>that game has aged like milk, except it didn't!
>>319432430
Visually, the game looks like ass
I wish I hadn't been told thatyou could parry Gwyn
>>319432476
Like all old games?
>>319431389I didn't know how to block until the Sam bossfight
>>319432563
Far cry 2 and 1 look better than that and they are many years older than it.
>>319432357
Kekkkkkkkek
>>319431587
No, these people are as bad at games as Game Grumps and Kotaku, apparently.
There's a tutorial and if you say you don't want to go through it, they still brief you on the basics of the game, just quickly. Just like Kirby's copy ability in All-Stars
I didn't know you could aim down sights in STALKER SoC
>>319432651
Yeah it looks great
>>319432948
Thanks for the input with that bait post
>>319428767
I didn't know about circling around to do backstabs when playing Demon's Souls.
This actually made the game a lot better, you couldn't just rush through enemies or deal with them in that super easy certain way where you're invinsible during the whole thing so taking on a pack of them isn't a problem either. When Dark souls got around I knew about the feature though, which didn't make the starting areas especially as notable to me.
To this day I wish they'd remove the feature as it kind of ruins the interesting spacing they had going on before, I guess at least they changed it so it has no invinsibility in Dark souls 2, but this faggot-like circling just feels cheap, it really does.
>>319431587
it tells you that you can do things but it doesnt tell you how
>>319429405
Fucking this, it happened a couple of times by accident and I thought my mouse was locking up.
>>319432948
That sure is some low quality bait.
>>319430407
>>319430537
that's a cheat though right? If you're chasing an enemy for instance, you land on top of him, so only you and your party speed up, not the enemy.
I got about 3/4 of the way through Fallout 3 before realising you could bind items to number keys by holding the number button down while in the pipboy/inventory.
>>319432219
you can move in blade mode?
>Fallout 3
>VATS
>>319432785
Not him, but the game doesnt do a terribly good job of explaining how to block and parry. You're never told you've done it right and the on screen indicators imply that you simply have to have the control stick pointing in the same direction, not that you have to actually release it and then move it that direction.
I don't even know how they messed it up since Bayonetta was actually really good for it and even Team Ninja managed it with the fuck up that is Ninja Gaiden 3.
>>319433030
Codec up the ass and iirc there is like an ingame manual which explains how to use items and how to do certain moves right?
>>319432063
thats the undead nightmare dlc. the game still holds up pretty well
>>319429405
>>319433031
what, really? I feel like that would kind of ruin the line of sight thing that you always have to keep track of, and the speed at which enemies move.
>>319430040
a nose's job is not to be seen
>>319433212
You might be right, I haven't played it in almost two years. I don't remember it being difficult to understand, but I could be wrong.
I went through the entire game of MGS3 Without using CQC. The first time I saw someone use a groundslam blew my fucking mind
>>319432063
Yeah it really looks so bad now for a last gen console game
>>319433342
Not him, but with shift you can still keep track of enemies, you just have to remember where they were / check everyone quickly. I didn't know about lock on -- scroll clicking is terrible -- and it was still playable / enjoyable.
Busted my ass as a kid trying to beat him
Didn't know you could just L-target him until a few replays later lol
>>319428767
i did not knew yoy could "lock" your character and shoot diagonaly while standing still in metroid and axiom verge
>>319433103
No, pretty sure it speeds up the entire map, at least it does when I do it
>>319433178
Playing that game without VATS is like purposely punching yourself in the testicles repeatedly
>>319428767
I beat mgs3 without knowing how to equip weapons from your backpack, so most of the game I had a dart gun.
>>319428767
some retards didn't know how to turn on the light on their pipboys
>>319433574
>I didn't know about lock on
neither did I, what I meant is that I think lock on would kind of ruin some of the fun i nthe game, which is keeping track of enemies and then being really fast at turning once they start bullrushing you, it seems to me that playing with lock on wouldn't be as exciting
on summonstrike[.com] you pretty kill the other summoner with lightning strike as soon as your charge gets to 90%
>>319430120
Fuck you that ruined GW.
>>319432913
What the fuck? You didn't think at any point to right click?
>>319433249
You need to buy the block and it shows what buttons you need to press
So yes
>>319433808
Oh, sorry, I misread. I agree, I don't think lock-on is needed and I still don't use it. It messes with my flow and overall makes me die more.
I didn't know you could fast travel in Oblivion. I quit the game after like 20 hours because i was sick of walking through boring landscape. I'd probably try it again now that I know about it.
>>319432063
>console only game from 5 years ago looks like shit
really anon?
>>319428767
I can't remember exactly where, but I think I never knew about Haste before going up against this thing. Told my friend I couldn't beat him, and then he told me about Haste and I felt like god damn, I could have saved myself so much pain.
I didn't realize it was the one way to get any worthwhile abilities and stat boosts until late into the game and I was wondering why I seemed so underpowered
>>319433987
You're right, being able to freely move the camera is a lot more important for fights on the scale of most of the bosses and some enemies like guillotine gorilla.
I didn't know about parrying in dark souls until lord gywn
>>319433964
My mouse at the time was really shitty, and right clicking worked like 1/4 times, and I guess when I tried the right mouse button it didn't do anything
So I went through the entire game hipfiring like I wasn't doing anything wrong
from the recent, I spent like 12 levels in fallout without realizing you could scroll the traits list
I went through the whole of Fallout New Vegas without realising that there was an 'uninstall' button
>>319428767
flashlight in Vietcong
>>319431587
It does, but very badly.
>>319432476
It doesn't look great, but it's really not that bad.
Strafing, back step and dodging in Silent Hill 2. The combat system is actually decently fleshed out if you pay attention
>>319428767
I didn't know you could dive in MGSV
>>319435157
Are you fucking stupid? You have to do it in the prologue. The screen freezes until you press the button.
I remember getting all the way to IIos in Mass Effect before realizing that there was a map. And it was probably on my 2nd or 3rd playthrough, too.
It wasn't until years later after replaying Fo3 to get hyped up for NV that I realized you could hold down the button to continue drinking water.
Instead of tapping it for a tiny sip.
Didn't know you could freeze mario's stretched face in Mario 64 until years later
>>319435504
I didn't even know you could repair your own weapons in Fallout 3
>>319432563
Kek
pressing backspace in MnB Warband opens up a tactics menu in battle.
>>319435504
Oh wow, I've played almost 300 hours in Fo3 and never noticed that
>>319436883
What?
Holyshit.
>>319428767
didn't know to equip shit on companions in fallout 4 for like 50 hour
assumed it worked like previous iterations and they stuck to equipping whatever is best in slot
>Playing 1st Splinter Cell on OG Xbox
>Had no idea you could zoom in with scope on the rifle until the very last level
>always pulled off my headshots with the over the shoulder cam
>>319431012
That is like a key part of the gameplay, I will never understand how so many people are so retarded they never figured it out. You are actually bad at video games.
