Your How Could This Happen to Me moments in Gaming

[Turnikman228]

We all heard the Simple Plan song; share your moment of crippling sadness when it comes to gaming.
Here are some of my recent ones

1) Soldier of Fortune 2 won't run on Windows 10 (I made it run but it was sad)
2) Killzone will never come to PC
3) A DooM WAD (Body Count remake) was abandoned

Isn't "How could this happen to me" supposed to be an ironic meme about melodramatically overreacting to trivial setbacks?

I just spent two nights downloading Hitman 2. I heard that you can also play the original missions if you own the previous game. So I uninstalled the previous game. Now I found out that I need to have the original installed for the missions to be available. ;_;

On my second game, I had Ramza equipped with auto potion and double strike. After that, the rest of the game was a breeze.

Not to me, but I saw a speed-runner on FF7 blow his entire run on a mathematically implausible situation with a boss. He had a better chance of winning the lotto than what happened to him. It was impressively horrible.

Oh god, that's something that I would do, or have done to me. I love it.

I think I cruised that because I made everyone a ninja with greatswords lol. The real boss for me was the first battle. I hadn't read the tutorial notes and thought I had to beat the first stage with just Ramza and Delita.

The last time I had a save file corrupt was in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes for PS4, which sucked because I was at 92.8% completion. It wasn't the biggest deal though because it was relatively easy to come back to.

Digimon World 2003 at the final bosses however, almost quit gaming for life on that one. That's like, 300+ hours down the toilet. Oof my life into pieces.

i accidentally rode a unique horse in skyrim (talking about shadowmere) off a cliff and his dead body broke my fall

[Jokerthefoolio]

I lost 90 minutes of dungeon progress in a ng plus run of Persona 5

[LawRee]

When in The Forest's fifth cave ending , preparing to fight Virginia , shivering from creeps entering her lair.... And she's not here. ......W Ww Where i i iis s S sShe Then???

[LawRee]

Can feel your pain , bruh....

When I used to play WOW, I would start playing on a sunny morning and next thing I know it's dark outside.
I would only mean to play for a couple of hours but I would always meet a friend and end up running dungeons or boosting each other through them.

I was playing Diablo 2 hard core and I'm not good at it so it took months of painfully creeping forward to hit the mid 80 levels with a summoning Necromancer. I'm farming in one of the Hell Act 4 levels when my screen suddenly goes blank. Panic sets it and I hear a hauntingly familiar noise, but I ignore it and desperately click on the still icon on the bottom of the screen to switch back to the game, but it takes several long moments for it to stop trying to show my desktop and resume displaying the game. I arrive just in time to watch myself eat one of those demon flamethrower attacks and die in a vortex of suck.

I lose a minute or two to stunned shock at this turn of events, then click on the AIM window that had caused Diablo to minimize, seeing someone's message and my away reply right beneath it.

My friend's message? "Sup Asian."

[IronCrane2003]

Gah, I remember that. I think it took about eighteen months for me to care enough to give it another go.
