• Guest, you're invited to help build our new TBT time capsule! It contains three parts, with some of its elements planned to open in 2029 and others not until the distant future of 2034. Get started in 2024 Community Time Capsule: Blueprints.

The hardest game you have ever played

Hmmm I don’t think I’ve played any really truly difficult games like Dark Souls. The closest thing I can think of is that I’m doing maddening runs of FE:3H
 
Hollow Knight was super difficult a lot of the time, but it was also always super fun whenever you were able to get through a very tricky puzzle! It’s a plat former for the most part, but the story is also mostly unspoken and so good! I highly recommend it for anyone wanting a difficult but rewarding challenge.
 
Hollow Knight. I still have not finished it, but it's been so worth it so far. The game, story and music are absolutely beautiful, and the gameplay is really rewarding once you get the hang of it.

The one that comes to mind is Conker's Bad Fur Day for the N64.It's a fun game but I'm just not very good at it.
 
The hardest game I've played in recent years has to be Hollow Knight. Base game is challenging enough but some of the optional stuff is pretty crazy. Just thinking about the fight with Nightmare King Grimm stresses me out. Managed to finally beat him though. lol
 
I don't really play 'hard games' cause I'm into easy going life simulation games.

The hardest one I've played so far was Halo 4. Never, have I EVER hated flying a spaceship so much. I died several times to the point that it wouldn't respawn me since I was playing local multiplayer as well.
 
Dark Souls. I couldn't even get past the first boss you encounter... It looks like it would have been a fun game to play though. Gave me Skyrim vibes.
 
I don't know if anyone here has played it but the Lion King game for the super nintendo is really hard. A lot of it has to do with you can't save so I always lose all my lives and have to start over. the furthest I have ever gotten is level 5 and there are a lot more then that.
 
I would probably go with Cuphead. That game took us forever to beat on co-op and we haven't even made it halfway through expert. Another close contender for me is Monster Hunter World. Down the line, that game just gets absolutely insane. I crafted the best armor I could for my current level and a lot of the enemies still wrecked me so hard late game. I just got frustrated to the point I dropped the game entirely. I did a lot of co-op too which I know increases the threat level, but I like to play with others rather than solo everything. Makes it more fun. I might return one day.
 
The entire game itself is not hard but the final boss of Legendary Starfy made me actually give up and sell the game. I could always get to the final phase of Mashtooth but there's a sequence where you have to spam Y button to land the final hit and my thumbs couldn't take it. Years later I re-bought the game and only managed to beat it by using a quarter to jam the button until I won.
 
kinda ashamed to say but
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door or Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon
after all these years I still can't get past the easier levels for some reason. (Stuck at Chapter 2ish on TTYD and got stuck on a clock tower boss in Dark Moon)

Also maybe even Splatoon, not the hero mode or octo expansion since those are stupid easy, but it just depends on who i'm up against in online battles. Most of the time I get destroyed and can't move around correctly despite having almost 1000 hours on that game.

I'm still really bad at games after all these years since 99% of the games I play I haven't beat yet.
...I still can't even play smash correctly.
 
Probably the very first Ninja Gaiden. I've gotten pretty good at it, but it's definitely something that can drive a person insane.

The farthest I can get in Dark Souls 2 is No-Man's Wharf. I hate that dang area.

And I am still struggling with Octo Expansion despite having it for at least a year+ now. I've only got like 5 levels left to beat, but I suck at all of them.
 
This is the hardest question for me to answer. I have never had a problem with a game being very hard. Problem l have is l can't answer this question.
 
mario odyssey, any platformer game I just can't I'm really bad at it, most of my deaths in ssb is me falling off the map :)
my sister is the same with ssb. She keeps forgetting to double jump and then do the up attack. But hey if she doesn't play the game that often, then l can understand.
 
Hmmm... this is a good question. Cuphead gave me a lot of trouble when I got to the 2nd isle.
Also Ninja Gaiden 2 for XBOX is ridiculous.
