Quote from YummiMookies

Quote from ShadowSakura

The Sims 2 - father got pregnant from his son
Pokemon Platinum - i bought it
Harvest Moon DS - Overwrote the game (9th year)
Pokemon Gold (GBC) - I didn´t notice the tree was actually a Pokemon so i tried to cut it down for 4 hours

Whoa, whoa, what? You can do that in Sims? I don't play though so don't give me that look D;
And LOL at the second one. 🤣

yes, with the boolProp testingcheatsEnabled true cheat. I got the Tombstone of Life and Death and there was a section with get pregnant with (you can chose everyone gender, age and relationship doesn´t matter the person just needs to be on the lot or currently on the phone) and i chosed the father by one of my woman but there was a bug so the father got pregnant from his son. they have a cute daughter which looks like a female version of the son

Got scammed in an online MMORPG. Also got hacked in the same MMORPG.

Final Fantasy VII - I lost weapon whilst chasing it, it took me HOURS to find the bloody thing again and the bonus sword I ended up with really wasn't worth the effort.

Devil May Cry - I can't where but I do spending ages trying to get to a certain section only to realise about 2 days later that I had completely missed a door in all my running around.

Pokemon red/blue - It still irks me when I think about how much time it took me to realise I had to SWIM to the 7th gym. I think literally weeks were wasted until I relented and bought a master's guide.

Sims - Being innocent teens, me and my childhood friend (who is a guy and instigated the whole thing) quickly learnt how to make people have sex, then we used a cheat to move them around whilst they were doing the business. It backfired when the game froze as a couple were having sex in mid air and his dad walked in on us trying desperately to fix it. Needless to say, our actions on the computer were closely monitored from then on, lol.

romance of the three kingoms 8[might have been a later game i think it was 8]

after one of the rulers died his country was devided by his sons[i think in 5 parts]
the guy who inherited the thrown after his father had died was pretty useless so[i guess thats why the other sons broke of into seperate kingdoms]
but since i had been allied a long time with his father i ed our alliance and helped him
that for some reason pissed of the other sons
who all attacked me when my main army was pretty far away.
and when i had beaten one of them so he had only one state left he wanted to ally with me
so OKed the alliance
that in turn made the first brother pissed off so he along with the other sons attacked me in full force

then they all rallied against me[even the one that had suggested the alliance just a couple of rounds/years prior along with some other smaller countrys

all this happened just bcoz i choose to stay allied with the son that inherited the throne of a dead friend
well i did win in the end lol but for no apparent reason the whole world hated me for honoring a 20+yo peace treaty

so it turns out that it was a mistake to put trust in your oldest friend[s sons]

it took like 10-15hours to handle that situation

While playing The Elder Scrolls Oblivion I became a vampire and fast traveled to a shrine in the middle of nowhere, forgetting that time moves forward while you're fast traveling so I appeared at the open air shrine already on fire from the sun. Worst part of it is autosave was turned off so I would lose hours of data. I tried to run to the nearest cave, drinking healing potions all the way and died only moments away from getting to the door 🙁

I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I only lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three.

P.S. Dead Fantasy. Look it up.

FF9 - I spend days searching for door only to find out I had to go to the left site of the screen.
FF7 - Failed bomb mission in time limit, because I was unable to position Cloud right, so he could get on ladder. Not only once. And discovered how to level limits after completing the game.
Devil May Cry 3 - I couldn’t get out of first room.
Shreck 2 - I never defeaded Fairy Godmother.

And so on. Forgetting to save isn’t dumb, it’s quite normal.

I was playing Suikoden for the first time and had gotten the "Blinking Mirror", which lets the player teleport back to base.

Well, according with the flow of the story, one of my characters died, and on him was the Mirror, in his equipment.

What's worse is I didn't realize that until later. V_V

In ancient times (meaning C64 and floppy swapping) played an RPG game for 12-14 hours, and when i tried to save the game, the game asked "wanna formate the floppy because it's full" and i choose YES, and did not swapped the disk. So i erased the game's first part. It was about 20 years ago 🙂

Lets see... finaly fantasy X, I spent all my ability cores, conveniently had no money, I had no where to go but fight a boss, and I couldn't go back through the zone, to try and level up or make money for hp.
.... I was 58 hours in game. Joy.

Of course the most popular not saving the game. And it took me hours to find the rare item I had obtained again.

🙁 Forgetting to save the game.

Happened to me quite a number of time while playing Pokemon on my DSlite:
1.Low Battery = Dead Battery,
2.Shut down and forgetting to save,
3.Letting my cousin play and overwrites my precious saved data.

And mind you, I was so addicted to Pokemon that i'd play for 4-5 hours a day. 4 hours of game play. Gone. Though it does make me feel better that I'm not the only one 😀
