Topic: Do I suck terribly?

Honestly I'm really curious. I usually die quite a bit in almost every level of most Nintendo games. Is this typical? Do you often go through games like Mario, DKC, Sonic (not Nintendo but still) without dying for long stretches, or does every second or third different obstacle cause you to at least die once? I feel like such a noob!

Uh

hes been gaming since 1964.

Gaming is all about having fun bro. As long as you're not playing a competitive online multiplayer game, just enjoy the game

Concentrate man,concentrate

There's a bonus level in the first group of stages in the new Donkey Kong game where you have to swing on vines for half the level before finding a platform to rest on. I think I replayed that twenty times in a row before I got through it. I don't really like platform games, but my appreciation for what Nintendo has done with New Super Mario Bros. U and Super Mario 3D World kept me playing. I think these games are a lot more accessible than they used to be (which is good or I wouldn't bother with them), but they're still pretty hard. People are better at different kinds of games is all I'd put down to bad performance into a given genre.

Maybe I meant my skills sound too bad, it's not like a die on every obstacle, just every two or three sections of a level often. I don't die to every Goomba.

For instance I died 295 times in Shovel Knight, that's awful isn't it?
Also I die a least 2-3 times on every Mario/DKC level.

I think deep in your heart, you knew that you sucked all along.

You can die all you like in a game, to know if you truly suck you must look at how much trouble you have finishing a game. Especially if you can't finish many games at all is a good sign you suck.

I actually died on nearly every level in New Super Luigi U. I die a lot in Donkey Kong Country Returns also. I die a lot in Sonic Lost World. I die a lot.

I'm going to say yes

How much/often have you played video games? I'm not very good, but I think a lot of it is due to the fact that I took a 20 year break from games.

To be honest, I'm kinda worried about your general motor functions and response times in general. Ok, so you suck at games. It doesn't really matter that much.
But I hope you're not equally as bad at similar kinds of tasks in the real world. You know....crossing the road

Don't believe people on the Internet. If you are playing performers without dieing some, (especially on DKC: TF more so than 3D World), then you are a psychic and in the mind of the creator(s) of the game and can foresee every obstacle beforehand.

Infinite respawns and checkpoints have made this generation weak!! Haha but really the important thing is to have fun even online just enjoy yourself for every person who gets annoyed there ten who just want to have fun as well with time and enoughopractice you'll be just as good as everyone else. Oh and I suck at Monster Hunter 3 U but I still love playing it!!

Everyone dies a fair bit their first time through a game. You're not exactly the only one.

Yea... that's a bit more than usual, I would say.

Are you having fun? Because that's really all that matters.

But you beat Shovel Knight? You can't be that bad if you beat the game.
