If you want to experience this try playing Final Fantasy the After Years and then fail to include a certain combination of party members in your Team near the end of the final chapter which results in the death of your strongest party member with no way to get said member back. The game became so frustrating and tedious after this that I quit playing and deleted the game. A year later I came back to it and beat it, but I still do not regard it as a decent game.

I do not care for games where you need to read walkthroughs in advance to get through it or avoid permanent mistakes that cannot be undone. I am all for alternate endings as mentioned above or challenging sections that require a lot of problem solving skills, but getting permanently screwed over is too much like real life in my opinion and is what I play games to escape from.
