I think I did it one time, but I can't remember what it was I found so unacceptable--oh wait. Yes I can. It was when I murdered Mr. House in New Vegas. Ironically, I wound up killing him anyway when I reloaded, because he didn't really give me a viable alternative even though I didn't want to do it. Usually when I make an RPG choice I regret, I live with the consequences, because I feel like it's a chance for me to learn from the mistake. Plus, I can look forward to doing it differently next time. Stuck in level geometry - do you mean like when you jump behind an object that there is no way to get back around again, so you're trapped? Oh man, I always worry about that in games that auto-save and don't allow me to create save points. Sometimes I'll also strategically die to go back to the last checkpoint, because I'm worried if I progress without the resources I'll be up a creek without a paddle. True, you dont need to die on purpose if there is a lot of checkpoints or autosave , but there are games like this where there is no way to progress whitout being fully prepared.

That's exactly what I meant. I think we're talking about the same thing. This is what I fear happening: -I am low on resources. -I decide to keep going. -The game autosaves on me. -I NEED a critical resource. -I have no manual saves, so I can't go back. I am stuck forever. If I am worried about that happening, that is precisely when I'll die on purpose or reload just so I can try again to get the resources before the game reaches the next checkpoint and screws me. kingpotato 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 If I get stuck on something and haven't saved in a while, that I absolutely can't figure out, I'll kill myself just so I can restart from the last time I saved, so that hopefully I can figure out what the hell I'm supposed to do.

skyfire Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I know many who play the mobile legends so bad that they kind of die when they get into the game and feed themselves to the tower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye. That's what I meant. But yeah usually I either die or just reload a save. If it's an MMO I have no chance but to commit suicide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 I remember in Fortnite just pretending to panic and throwing down a pulse grenade sending me and half my team plunging to our deaths. Of course, my team called me all kinds of names and things 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless the glitch also messes up your controllers so in that case I just unplug the console. Alyxx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I've been guilty of this in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
