So what the dumbest thing you've ever done in a game?

Messed up a ridiculously easy kill, deleted a save, forgot to save a load of progress?

Mine would be acciddently deleting my Twilight Princess save which was around halfway complete! That pissed me off so much. Waited a few weeks before I started it again.

I never make mistakes. I'm flawless!

The first time I played Dark Souls I played all the way to Undead Burg not realizing that I had picked up a better weapon than the one you start with. The whole time I thought to myself that people were right, this is the hardest game of all time. I had to very carefully lure enemies away from groups to take them out one on one and I made made trips to the bonfire to build up my strength and other attributes.

Without knowing it I had a better weapon right there and I didn't notice. The level boss took me forever to beat and I felt like I had just done the impossible and wasn't sure if I really wanted to keep playing if the game was just going to get harder.

After the bird dropped me off and I made my way to Undead Burg I died on the bridge and was so frustrated I started looking at the menu to see if I could make my character stronger and that's when I noticed the sword. I equipped it and suddenly the game was easy and I felt like an idiot.

I must have died hundreds of times with that damn sword in my pocket.

If only we were all like you Ninpie!!!

But would it have felt as good if it hadn't taken all your skill to do what you did?

getting blown up by a creeper, the first time i played Minecraft and thinking what the fuck was that? lol.

Played FFXIII.......oh snap!

Waited hours and hours to catch Snarler, then wife asked me some questions and I accidentally released it........

back when I first got pokemon blue. I was like 5 year old but it took me about 15 hours to get past the old man in viridian city. had a blastoise by the time I got past.

Wasting time in FF13.
