LOL

Well you never know what lies ahead, I wouldn't want to get cold-cocked on supplies down the line
>>332504172
Well yeah, i have this problem. It developed recently too, so i don't know what happened to me.

>there are two paths you can go down
>you accidentally pick the one that transitions to a new area without checking the other one first
>can't go back
>>332504172
The worst part is when you're trying to explore the optional areas but end up going the right way and you can't go back to the optional shit.
>>332504172
Modern games make sure you're always supplied and fully loaded.
Old FPS give you an armory room before any big fight anyways.

This is the only reason I tolerate waypoint markers. They show you where not to go.

>fork in the road with no clear visual indicator as to which one leads to the end of the level
>>332504172
Nowadays its easy too tell which is which. the second route isn't well lit or the camera points away.

i did this in bloodborne a lot, even though i know i can always back track later. just trying to find lanterns and loot, even though compared to the souls games, there is barely anything worth looting in bloodborne. 99% of it is just consumables.

>mfw doing this in a teleporter maze dungeon
>this shit in RPGs
>fork on the road
>you pick the one that goes forward instead the one that goes to the treasure chest
>have to go back to pick the treasure
>random encounters wear down the party
>useless fucking potion or similar shit

Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup will train you out of this mindset rapidly. It teaches you to USE your stuff, not conserve it, and that backtracking is going to starve you to death.

>yfw Wizardry 4's spinning tile floor
If you don't know this look it upIt's the stuff of nightmares
>play RPG
>never finish it because I'm afraid I'll miss on a sidequest found between plot points
>No indications of people wanting to give sidequests or when or where so I just run around the world talking to randoms until I get bored
>>332504172
Did it in resi 4 cause Merchant is dankest nigga in gaming.
>Get older
>Fuck it I'll just blitz through these hallways
>Throw out special attacks just to speed things up/for the sake of it and drink Elixirs to recover it
>Run out of Ethers etc
>Fuck it, I've taken some damage too I'll just use this Megalixir
>Consider HP as just another resource to be spent
I wonder when this happened
>>332505558
Return of Werdna is fucking satan incarnate!

>Consider HP as just another resource to be spent
The only point that matters is the last, in like 99% of games that is
>>332504758
even simpler than that.
95% of the time the left way is where the game proceeds.

It just teaches me to be an octopus and shank people. Yes I know almost any race is better, but 8 rings.
