Your FUUUUUU Moments (non-Pokemon)

[Lone_Garurumon]

Any training session in Dragon Ball Kakarot that involves fighting Vegeta. Because the Big Bang attack comes out fast with little warning, causes a massive explosion, and it hits hard. So if you're focusing on someone else, like, say, Goku because he usually has more damage potential if he catches you in a combo, 'Geets can and does regularly blindside you and shave off like half a health bar with barely any warning.
Trunks is on the same kinda ballpark. Burning Attacks may not have the raw power of the Big Bang Attack, but they have even less forewarning, and you can't even isolate Trunks to take him out fast, since he's just backed up by two Kid Trunkses with access to the exact same attack.

Fighting a Kecha Wacha in the original Monster Hunter Stories. I can never predict its attack pattern, it can inflict skillseal (which prevents you from using any skills except the basic attacks), it counterattacks all the damn time, and screams constantly.

I recall when I first completed Kingdom Hearts, I got really annoyed since... the back of the disc was super scratched for some reason and the ending cutscene would bug out and freeze a lot as a result. Ended up having to go to youtube at the time to see the ending.

I've gotten stuck in Slime Rancher with no way to get out and had to force quit. Never give me a jetpack in games.

There was also how in my childhood copy of Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter there was one level towards the end of the game which froze and made me unnable to complete it. Which made it a lot more funny to learn the ending several years later.

When I was playing Wind Waker earlier this year, the gamepad battery was running low, and I realized that I can move the cord next to the chair so I can plug it in and keep playing. Well I go over there, and of course I unplug the console instead of the gamepad cord. In the middle of the tower of the gods. Just after I had gotten the bow. And my last save was before I'd even gone into the dungeon.

Also, I had a Minecraft world recently with a great village including a cartographer and I was going to trade him up to master to get a map and go to whatever the map leads to. I'm walking around one night, and see two zombies walking towards me, one of them being the blacksmith, who was my best source of emeralds. I had no way of curing him so I haven't been in that world in a while.

Ok, so this one's from a fair while ago, but it was still kinda funny so I wanna recount this experience with you all. So, I'm playing Minecraft, exploring The Nether in an effort to find a fortress or perhaps a bastion. Because it's The Nether I'm frequently assaulted by ghasts that I then fight by throwing my Loyalty III enchanted trident, throw it and it returns to your hand the moment it hits a solid block. So I throw the trident, and while it's in the air, I accidentally walk over a couple blocks on the ground that pops into my hotbar. My trident missed, lands, and flies back to me, but because my inventory is now full, I cannot put it back into my hand meaning it's just floating around me waiting for a free slot. So I mash the drop button to dump the blocks I'd picked up because the ghast is still there shooting at me, but accidentally press too many times and drop my trident as well. Off a cliff. But that's fine, it's ok, I can just climb down the side and go pick it up. Buuuuut, there's a flow of lava at the bottom of that cliff. Impaling V, Loyalty III, Mending. All incinerated by a random flow of lava at the bottom of a cliff I accidentally threw it down. I've since replaced it, of course, with an even better one that has Channeling as well. But it was very irritating at the time, since the ghast was still coming, and without that trident I uhh, don't exactly carry any ranged options on me, so my only choice was running away.

Now that I've got shulker boxes to save space, it's possible I should start packing a bow, just in case.

In my first playthrough of Dishonored I tried to do the non-chaos way of getting rid of a guy so I carried him out the window. Then I dropped him. And fell on him. He died.

So, I really like the beginning of ACNH. The whole deserted island, fresh start feel is amazing. Because of this, I am now on Island number 5 (I do have a second Switch though so I just reset over my side island). So I've been sitting here, resetting over and over again for at least 3 hours now, looking for an island where the starting flower wasn't cosmos, lilies, or roses since I've already had those before and I just want something different. I was on reset number 12 or something when I was like "okay, why am I getting the same three flowers over and over again? There are 8 types of flowers and this game and it's possible to get all of them." so I FINALLY looked it up and had my mind absolutely blown when I learned your options for starting flower are tied to your birth month.

Not only have I reset over this island multiple times (including resetting over several island layouts that were amazing), but I also reset multiple times on my other islands, For two of them, I eventually settled on having the same exact starting fruit and flowers as another because I was just so tired of resetting. I don't even play as myself in video games I just felt like keeping my birthday the same as my own. If I had known that was what was determining my flowers for these past two years, I would have started picking random birthdays a long time ago. Heck, the reddit thread I found this information on is two years old too. I am so mad at myself for not looking this up sooner.

So once on a Minecraft server me and my friends were transporting a couple villagers to our base and it took us, like half an hour to get the villagers to a river and boat them to our base. When we got there it was nearly night, so we all had to sleep to avoid the villager getting killed by zombies. HOWEVER, one of my friends took a really long time to get into his bed and sleep so by the time he did, the villagers had both been killed and then the zombie villagers they turned into burned in the sun, so we couldn't even cure. I wasn't too annoyed, but another of my friends was and he was so mad at the guy who didn't sleep. They got over it, but we never played on that world again.

Trying, and failing (repeatedly), to defeat the Rush virus in MegaMan Battle Network 1 so I can get the PopUp chip and move onto Internet Area 14 (as in order to pass through the gate you need at least one chip from all of the viruses in the area, including the rare PopUp chip). I have managed to track down the bugger repeatedly only for it to flee when it hits 3 HP before I get a chance to shoot it. I try saving my Navi Chips for those last few HP, as they auto-target (or are AOE attacks like SharkMan), but my reaction time isn't as good as I'd like it to be, so the little mutt gets away before I get a second to react. This has gone on for quite some time and it's driving me mad. Especially since it's a rare encounter and the Locate Enemy sub-chip wasn't created yet. But I need to access the area behind that gate as it has some more HP Memories, another Power Up, and the location of ShadowMan. But boy is trying to find that little mutt a pain, much less trying to delete it. The fact that it has the annoying effect of turning all damage (even multi-hit attacks like StoneMan) into one point of damage (even if it's hit multiple times in the same move like the aforementioned StoneMan chips, as it only registers the first hit). Frankly I'm glad the virus vanishes after BN2 (outside of cameos) because I do not like playing this elaborate game of Whack-a-Mole when you've only got a split second to react so you can get the damn chip it drops.

Was so close to winning the Cynthia battle in Shining Pearl with her Garchomp on like 10 HP. I went to use a full restore on my Gastrodon but accidentally used a potion instead.

I was so angry that I soft reset my Switch before my Gastrodon could even faint. Hell if I was gonna let the game rub my own stupid action in my face.

Edit: completely misread the title. Barry blunders once again.

When I was trying to say “no don’t move away” to one of my animal crossing villagers I said “have a good life out there” instead…

 

[Snowy.ninetales]

Which game was it? They'll stay if you talk to them before their moving date.

New horizons, it was when I barley knew how to play and I was just in shock.

The last big FUUUU moment I had was when I first played FFX and had to fight Seymour for the 3rd time on Mt. Gagazet. One of the most annoying bosses I've ever had to deal with, but now that I have played it a few times it's not as hard but I will always remember that first time playing through and having to deal with him..... again.

i'm a bit disappointed in myself because no matter how hard i try, i can't force myself to be interested in mario games these days. i wonder if it's because i'm not a big platformer person, but i've been debating on and off for years whether or not super mario odyssey was worth getting and while i understand it has had amazing reviews, i constantly struggled with just...imagining myself enjoying it. or really most mario games for that matter.

the last mario game i've genuinely enjoyed was mario & luigi: superstar saga and that was well over two decades ago. maybe mario rpgs are more of my style?

Maybe. I can understand that since I'm more or less like that. Super Mario RPG and Paper Mario would be good options in that case.

I spent the last 45 minutes trying to beat Seeker in Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist Duel Links, but he kept getting Exoida EVERY SINGLE TIME!!! I was trying to pull the Light of Intervention + Chain Destruction combo in order to destroy one of Exodia's pieces when he summons it so I can remove Exodia from the equation but I never got those two cards at the same time, or even within each other. So I lost the past 14 Duels to him. Insult to injury: Yugi's deck is poorly optimized for dealing with Seeker's monsters, as most are low-powered ones like Silver Fang and Beaver Warrior, with only Dark Magician, Summoned Skull, and Chimera having any sort of decent Attack. You can bet I was furious. Finally, by sheer luck, I had set a Chain Destruction and set a Feral Imp, which he destroyed with Dark Hole, then summoned Exodia's head for a cheap potshot, which allowed me to use Chain Destruction and destroy all the Exodia heads in his hand/deck. This allowed me to FINALLY beat him.

Ugh... I'm never facing him again unless I use my own deck that has cards like Card Destruction or Morphing Jar so I can get rid of his Exodia pieces in the hand before he can summon the damn thing again. The the only good thing that came out of that exercise of frustration was that I learned that you still gain points for losing (since I couldn't bail the second Exodia was summoned) that you can use to buy packs. And since I lost so many times I ended up racking up a ton of those points, even if they were only around the 400-800 range per loss. But now I can see why everyone hates Exodia, especially since Seeker's deck was based off the anime, so he had three of every good draw card out there like Pot of Greed and three of each piece of Exodia. The interesting fact behind this is that I rarely have trouble with him in the old Legacy of the Duelist game, as I'm able to beat him more readily in the older version. Not sure why that is. Better luck? Or does my PS4 like me better than my Switch?

I was doing Cait's companion quest in Fallout 4 when I noticed she was missing, couldn't find her anywhere in Vault 95. No big deal, I'll just teleport to a settlement - nope, still Cait. When I did finally find Cait, no speech options popped up - she spoke but I couldn't travel with her, access her inventory, etc. Had to sacrifice an hour's progress and return to my last manual save.

 

[Herbizarre]

Skyrim crashing before I could save the game (I had disabled the auto-save feature to minimalize crashing issues, but it doesn't completely solve the problem)
