Took me 7 hours to even find Vordt because of how badly everything was killing me despite beating DaS and DaS2 several times. Terrible.

Like every old game I use to play as a kid. It boggles my mind how much time we really had back then.

The Megaman Zero games. I was amazing at them when I was kid. Went back to replay them recently and I played like complete ass.
>>
Counter-Strike
Sins of a Solar Empire
Wargame
Rock Band
Dead or Alive
Turtles in Time
Donkey Kong Country

...pretty much everything except Transport Tycoon. I can still build out a decent rail network in OpenTTD.

I could barely play it on my own.
I was supposed to do it with friends but friends are shitters.
But I'll still try again when the new one comes out

Armored Core

I also think back to playing FFXI and I can't even remember what hand position I used to hit all the macros... I played that game for six years and it was so natural that I can't remember how I did it, but I recon I would remember within a day or two.

Yep, Mega Man games for me too. I've been playing the Legacy Collection and I swear I never had problems with the Quick Man beams as a kid. And the dragon at the end of the first Wily Stage (MM2) fucked me up a lot too. I mean I can still beat the game without getting game over, but it's really strange to me how some of these things that gave me no problems before give me problems now.

I was very proud. You can do it, anon!! But

Just finish me off.

Are you me?

>managed to beat the first one was a kid
>could even get past Aztec Falcon as an adult

Then again, I found that I oddly didn't enjoy it much anymore. Too grindy. Maybe I should give it another try.

>>334555968
Yeah I find that once you get past the barrier of you sucking, if you keep at it, you actually end up better than you were before.
