ITT: hardest game you have ever played

you can finish that game in 90 seconds.
>>
>>341254857

The hardest part is figuring out where the other half of the title went along with the other half of the content we expected it to have

How are the rest of the games?

I finished Riven, but never bothered with the rest.

Exile is ok-ish.
Revelation is kinda meh, first world is fucking awesome though.
End of ages is good. Not fantastic, but really good.

Starring Christopher Walken.

There was a near impossible puzzle where you had to collect audio samples from PDAs and splice words out of the waveforms to get them them to say a phrase to activate a voice controlled lock. It was maddening.

Flip every switch on the island, go back to the docks and flip the switch there, which opens revealing the white page from the return book that has trapped Atrus in Dunny, go to the library, enter the code needed to access the linking book to Dunny, give Atrus the page and you're done.

The only annoying part of Myst for me was that gear number puzzle before I realized you could hold the chain down and the middle would keep spinning.
>>
>>341268129
the ds version has the original version, not the american release.
The only other pre-VII FF I've played is VI but IV is miles harder.

This and the tunnel maze are the only puzzles I couldn't finish myself.

I probably could have done the tunnel maze if I went back to Mechanical Age and memorized the directional tones, but once you go to Selenitic, you can't leave until you complete the maze. It's kind of bullshit, but not as bullshit as the rocketship piano.
>>
>>341269015
Huh, I didn't know there was something that told you about the sounds in the tunnel. I just brute forced and mapped the entire system until I found the exit.

you can get the sounds by trial and error (north sound is given for free). The piano is just bullshit unless you have a "musical ear"
>>
>>341269308
Yeah, whenever you change direction in the maze it makes a tone to indicate which direction you're facing.

The only way to know which direction = which tone is by using the tower simulator in the Mechanical Age.

That entire era was pure bullshit. Fuck the maze.

>>341269756
It sucks too because Selenitic is easily the coolest looking age, especially in RealMyst.
>>
>>341267902

I thought Riven was easier than mist tbqh mostly due to the fact that I'm tonedeaf as fuck and couldn't into the shitty piano.

But them animal noise orbs fucked me up good.
>>

I'm confused just looking at it. Glad I passed on that game, I guess that's for people who are smarter than I am.

It's really a grindfest. That final, saveless dungeon is a gauntlet, though.

>>341270104
I found Riven more difficult but I think that's because I always miss the hidden/obscure stuff like the fish on the wall, hidden doors near the frog, that one tiny fucking button near the tribal statue etc.
>>
>>341269668
OHHH I get it now. You simply don't play the symbols on that card.

The american release was dumbed down but the DS version kept the original difficulty.

Does Riven have one of the comfiest intros ever in gaming?

This was such bullshit. It started out easy as hell. Then the severe limited ammo and being pinned down every instance was a shit show. Wish i would have cheated.

This was fucking stupid. I looked everywhere in the lighthouse for the items listed on there and I couldn't find any of them.

>>341266810

Yeah, you're supposed to find the code late in the game, which is why you usually don't do this, but by all means you can just go to the library and enter the code right off the bat.

Did anyone play this one? It wasn't as hard, but it still had some neat puzzles.

>that optional blob puzzle
>>
>>341270738

Yeah Riven ha a lot more hunt the pixel bullshit than any other Myst game, and the fact that resolution and lolCRTs back then were garbage made it needlessly frustrating.
>>
>>341272205
The music in the Myst games are GOAT tier

I swear no game has even come close to creep me out as much as Riven did, even all these modern """scary""" games.

The boat in Myst was also really fucking scary

2 was hard but the expansion pack for the first one was just straight up psychological torture.

I was thinking the base game for the first one. I never played the expansion pack, though I think I got a copy of it in a bundle a while back. I'll have to check it out for myself.
