Most of the video games I’ve played were pretty good. The only one I can think of that I didn’t like was MySims Kingdom for the Nintendo DS. Dropped that pretty quickly. It was a long while ago, but I’ll guess it was because there were too many fetch quests and annoying controls.

    Honestly, Armored Core VI. Endgame spoilers below (idk if there’s a way to do spoiler tags?).

    The final boss is absolutely godawful. Just utter garbage. It took me hours, and I hated it from my first attempt. It’s categorically different from anything else in the game, and there’s never a point where it’s fun. Probably 20% of my total playtime was on this one boss. I was absolutely loving the game up until then, but that one boss is so unbelievably poorly designed that it ruined the entire game for me. It’s genuinely impressively horrible.

      Wait

      (ending spoilers for Armored Core VI)

      Doesn’t the game have multiple endings, each with it’s own boss fight?

      My friend and I both got different endings on our first play throughs, and now we’re in NG+ trying to figure out where we diverged.

        (Spoilers continue)

        I don’t know for sure, but I think it’s just a couple missions before the end. You have a choice to either fight Cinder Carla (siding with Ayre) or to fight the corps (siding with Carla). I sided with Carla, which made Ayre the final boss, and the fight was godawful. My understanding is that there are maybe more endings with NG+, but I’m trying to muster up the will to bother even turning the game on again after how atrocious the Ayre fight was.

          Yeah Ayre is the boss my friend got and he also had a hard time with it. I won’t tell you who I got, but it definitely wasn’t as bad.

          I decided to Google why we got different bosses, and turns out Ayre is actually intended to be the NG+ boss lol. I have no idea why FromSoft would make two final bosses available for the first play through if they have an intended order for them.

          I did it on the first or second attempt and I’m pretty mediocre. That shoulder gun you get from the ice worm mission trivializes most of these hard boss fights - you should give rocking two of them a try.
