Jade Cocoon is nice because once you beat it there is an infinite difficulty dungeon that gets harder every time you load, and has some cool monster combos you wouldn't normally see.
my love that game

It's only FF games haha. Everything else I finish (banged my head against DQVI boss and spent forever retooling jobs to make it possible) but for FF I reach the end and go eh.

lmao how is this even possible. the game like forces you to level up an ally once or twice and even gives you an item for leveling them up again

yeah i guess i didn't read and thought that each character gets like a +1 and never tried leveling them beyond that. i was a lot more drunk and high 10 years ago

i got drunk once and purchased the windows PC version for seven dollars on amazon or something, and now it's sitting on my wii u still sealed in plastic, as a reminder to not do stupid poo poo like that when im drunk

My first time playing baten kaitos eternal wings and the lost ocean I got my save file to a part where you couldn't grind and there was a stupid hard boss fight so I got frustrated and stopped.

Then when I started again I had made it to the final dungeon and the memory card I used corrupted and I lost the save.

Now I have a file that I got about a quarter way through on that I don't have motivation to play ever

Well someone beat my world record time in a NES Remix stage a couple months ago and it's by enough tenths of seconds that I don't think my hands could take being that sore again so it's probably that, OP. It's a DK Jr stage where to be really fast at it you have to press up then left/right on the D-pad every alternating frame to cross vines and it's just physically taxing. Maybe someday but I doubt it.

i got halfway through king's field: ancient city, realized i missed the trigger for an important sidequest and would have to backtrack like 2 hours, gave up. i lost my PS2 in a move, and the emulation for that game is hosed, so i'll prob. never beat it.

It took the guy 8 months to do it and he's an absolute nutcase about the Donkey Kong and Zelda games on there and on all but that stage he had the best times by pretty wild amounts so I'm not too salty about it. Maybe if I was as much of a lunatic as him about being the best at those ones I'd be more pissed off but alas.

those gaming achievements that come so close and then slip away...mine is that I've reached Kefka's castle three different times through three different FFVI playthroughs but I've never actually beaten Kefka, because I don't like having to use all the characters in the last dungeon.

I never completed a 100% run of Tomba 2. That loving minecart challenge has thwarted me on two separate occasions.

I have to beat this 100% before they get around to making Tomba 3 guys.

The key to the last seed of strength is to tilt the cart with the curve, so you are able to build up the momentum to slam the cart hard right enough to reach the seed.

i saved toward the end of the first kingdom hearts and didn't play for a few days, and when i turned it back on i was all confused and just decided i'd come back to it a little later bc i wasn't in an exploring mood.

except i had rented the game, never turned it back on before taking it back, and never finished it.

My life started to fall apart around the same time I bought Super Mario Sunshine. I will never be able to consider myself fully recovered until I beat it. Holding a full-time job for months straight has made that very hard, though.

Defiled watchdog in bloodborne. I'm so close to plat but before mgs5 I tried him at least a hundred times and I can't ever make it past the last 20% or so. Tons of people have done it so it's obviously not impossible but I have beaten every other souls boss ever and this one just feels insurmountable to me
