I was playing ESO for some time, finding antiquities by simply trying to find the excavation site by sight. Little did I know that there was a collectible that you can equip that point to its exact location.

Finding by sight sounds funny though!
Went from hating antiquities to being a level 10 when I found that out.
Also having too many Sixth House tables, but hey, every apartment has one now?
I changed my control scheme in rocket league like 1k hours in. Really needed the ability to boost while jumping among other things. It was a totally brutal transition, but I'm glad I did it.
To this day RL is the only game I play with a claw grip for exactly this reason lol.
What did you map your boost and jump to?
I still have jump on ps:x or Xbox:a, and mapped boost to rb/r1. Then drift and air roll on lb/l1
I played Just shapes and beats without knowing how to activate the boost thingy. After failing the tutorial and playing the party mode, I saw that the other people did the boost and I just searched and felt pretty dumb after realizing you can boost.
Jedi: Fallen Order
First whole play through on Jedi Master (hard) difficulty and didn’t collect a single extra stim so just had the two you start with
There's this game called Arc Rise Fantasia for the Wii that's mechanically interesting with the worst English dub known to the English. I got far enough to where something happens to half the party and they're no longer usable. I had really only been leveling those characters and soft locked myself into a really hard boss fight. I was praying for a force-lose boss but all I got was the game over screen.
Temple Run. Didn't know there were power ups. Currently playing Nier Automata and I'm certain I'll finish that game and realize I've fucked something up.
Got about halfway through Mass Effect 2 on the PS3 before I realised it's never spent any skill points in upgrades.
Hahaha, this reminds me of my first play through of final fantasy 7 where I didn't quite understand you could change/upgrade weapons on your characters and I've went very far in what is essentially hard mode at some point, doing significantly less damage than I could.
I was a kid with poor reading comprehension I guess
Oh my first play through of FF7 I somehow managed to arrive at Demon Gate completely underpowered. I had no way to beat him because I simply hadn't levelled high enough or got enough good gear. It wasn't until lockdown that I actually went back and finished the whole game.
Ah I've done that a few times when there wasn't enough hand holding in games.
I didn't realize metal gear rising had a block/parry mechanic. The tutorial talks about countering enemy blows with your own barrage of attacks so I figured I just had to stagger them and steal health regularly. Monsoon is the first fight with no minions to heal off of, so I got stuck and finally checked online.
Recently played through entirety of the dragon age games on Gamepass. Was pretty excited to finally do this as it had been on my 'list of games to play' for years...
Rushed through and I think I missed a companion in at least two of the games. Maybe all three. Couldn't tell you who offhand, bit was pretty upset when I read about them later and they seemed cool.
