yeah, i mean gently caress-ups are funny but realtalk this has got to be unimaginably anxiety-inducing.

glad he's got it figured out i think

What exactly did he gently caress up to make this fight impossible?

He was supposed to basically freeze The End by poisoning him with the cigarette smoke, but he was standing too far away. The End would run away, and he would have to go chase after him through multiple maps, basically making him play it regularly.

He could turn off his PS3, move the clock forward a week, and then just come back to the game (The End dies of old age).

I'm guessing he messed up a trick to drain The End's stamina really quickly.

That boss doesn't kill you, he tranqs you and moves you several screens away. So now you need to hoof it back, but you don't have any of the gear you used on him. It can leave you with no fast strat for him, and fighting him normally takes a looong time.

So unlike other games you can't just die and give it another go, you'd need to actually go back and then have some backup strat.

Oh, this is far from the worst, most awkward run ever. It's looking to be potentially really bad but it's not that bad so far.

I think he primed to wrong type of grenade, hosed up, got shot, which dropped his stamina so low he couldn't finish this fight, and losing it sets you back 6+ minutes.

Right, I'm familiar with the fight, I just missed what he'd done to mess it up.

LAY-ZX posted:

Basically his stamina was so low he was about to lose to the boss. That's why the screen had that circle effect.

That particular boss isn't "instanced" so you just keep having to run through that area (and or several others) finding him if you don't get the quick kill.

Also you lose like all your gear and get placed in an out of the way area that you have to get back to which takes time.

It's not "impossible" to finish the fight, but it's a run killer.
