Crying like Cartman when I accidentally trigger a 15min cutscene followed by boss fight bc I chose the wrong path. Later when I return to the area I get 32g and a Cypress Stick.

All games need a Dead Space style “go this way” line on the floor simply so I know which way not to go.

Depends on the game, for me. For shooters and the like, I tend to use a heap of my medpacks, grenades, etc. in the big fights throughout the game. But for RPGs, I'll hang onto everything for as long as possible! Often I'll use a bunch of the weakest healing potions (since I might need the better ones for a rainy day!!!) so I might buy more of them and use them semi-regularly, but everything else just gathers dust.Spanish Manlove posted:I don't hoard items but I will go down a path, realize "oh poo poo this is progress" then immediately 180 to go search for loot Also this. Dammit brain!

I’ll admit it, I’ve loaded a save because I saw a cutscene.

Playing 95% of the way through a game, then receiving a "this is the point of no return!" message before starting the next quest, then leaving it to try and finish all the side content and then finally losing interest in the game before finishing the story ftl

We all love to thoroughly traverse the entire dungeon and save the goal for last, but you've got to make progress eventually. Finish a game you've stalled out dithering at the end of this week. It'll help you to renew the joy of gaming.
...but is it art?

I'll hoard weapons and armour etc in like New Vegas and similar games if they're uniques. Not even use them just dump them into my storage box in whatever base I'm using and abandon them there. Consumables get used without hesitation though

Not even use them just dump them into my storage box in whatever base I'm using and abandon them there. Consumables get used without hesitation though oh yeah anything unique gets kept forever no matter what. In DQXI I never even sold the starter weapons because it gives you that warning that says "if you sell this, you might never be able to get it back!" and my brain went "sure I will never use this again but what if there's some obscure crafting recipe that needs it later and I sold it like an idiot?"

This is going to be my new habit from now on ever since I screwed myself out of some of the alchemy creations in Dragon Quest VIII by selling all my unused gear so I could buy new ones.

Sometimes I like to hang onto unique items even if I'll never have a use for them or if they sell for a bunch of money, just because it feels wrong to sell a unique item
