8 Great Games Nearly Ruined by One Terrible Level, You Know the One

We've all been there: you're playing an excellent game, everything's going swimmingly, it might even be a candidate for Game of the Year for whichever authority gives that award out to every single game. Then it's nearly ruined by that awful platforming bit,
mounted gun bit, or half-baked racing sequence. You know the one. Subscribe for more! tinyurl.com/SubToOxbox
Fortunately these awful missteps, probably programmed by the work experience kid, aren't enough to spoil the overall sense that yes, this was a good game. They're just momentary speed bumps that jar you out of your otherwise entirely pleasant game-playing experience.

"the water level", "the sewer level", "the escort mission", "the stealth section" comes to mind. Unless your game is *designed* for that from the ground up, just don't even try to put it in.

[@elwayfan01]

I think Civvie has proved that literally every game has a sewer level

[@AAAAAAA-nh7jv]

Katana Zero did stealth a cool way: Wanna do stealth? Cool, you wont get a reward. Murder everyone possible in the level? (spoilers) One step closer to secret boss

[@consumebee9540]

I disagree, cod4's stealth missions were better than the normal missions

Crash Bandicoot 2’s sewer levels were damn fantastic and had some of the best music in the game. There’s always exceptions.

[@remembertotakeshowerspleas355]

I just played through that mission a few weeks ago. I found it a little irksome, but I was really surprised to hear about how it was pretty much universally hated by the internet. It took me 2-3 attempts and I never died. The shit Vice City put you through was much worse IMO. Combined with the fact that the game takes away all your shit and plenty of your money each death (And there were a LOT of unavoidable deaths) made that game much worse than it needed to be.

[@stevebob240]

Those remote control helicopter missions are extremely frustrating too.

[@mitchjohnson4714]

I gave up on the level where you have to get that transport helecopter to lift something. I can't remember. The train wasn't too hard for me.

GetToHellOut I'm playing them both on my PS2 right now. I just played SA and, nope, I still have all my weapons after dying. I think there might be a cheat code enabled or they just don't punish you for deaths for the first few missions. Maybe the game's taking some of my ammo instead?

RE4's Ashley was relatively inoffensive, though. Her AI was smart enough that she'd get the hell out of the way during a firefight, and you could always just stuff her in a nearby bin if things got too hairy. ... Except for the water room. Seriously, FUCK that place.

[@masonwheeler6536]

Mass Effect 2 actually had an escort mission that was really interesting and well done, mainly because the devs managed to give the escortee some halfway-decent AI instead of the usual "rabid suicide-monkey" setting we all know and hate.

Same here. I never understood why people hated Xen. On a rail... yeah, that was annoying.

[@jasonalbert6251]

Xen was meh, in my opinion. As for On A Rail, what are you talking about!? That’s an excellent level once you learn to just leave the train behind and never actually go “on a rail” at all!

[@joarsturve7103]

I actually liked every part of the game but Xen was one of the chapters which became a bit tedious on your second playthrough

[@TURBOSLAYERPWNZ]

Exactly my point. But in hl1 xen wasn't as good as in the blue shift thou, bs has the best level design.

[@kleinerstudios3598]

Yeah I like Xen, on a rail is just too long.

[@StereoBucket]

When I saw Half Life in the intro I though "Oh yeah 'On A Rail' will get mentioned". And then they said Xen sucks. You what mate?

[@CheffBryan]

Same. But then if you watch speedrunners, you realize the whole goddamn level can be over in just a couple of minutes.

You forgot one: the Asteroid-shooting segment in Dead Space. Ruined an otherwise great experience, and it made me rage quit due to how bullshit it was. Fuck that part. They couldn't have just made that a cutscene, seriously?

[@Kymiwins]

Absolutely agree. Rage quit quite a few times on that damn part.

[@buca117]

I listened to the devs explain how that happened and it made sense. Basically, they spend so much time playing and replaying sections while testing and developing that their sense of difficulty gets skewed. That's why play testing is so important.

[@sfjnet]

I was going to comment on the asteroid cannon section if no one else did! Totally agree - there were a couple of tries on my first playthrough where I almost gave up on the game altogether. So glad I perservered though!

It'll never happen. Steam makes a killing off of all the games they sell, especially since major developers like Bethesda are using their platform. Valve literally makes more money by doing nothing than they do by making games. Valve makes roughly 700 million a year through Steam. If they released HL3, they'd have to sell roughly 12 million units to make that much back. As a business, would you choose to produce? Or just stick with distributing?

[@NickNackGus]

I didn't mind Xen too much. I thought for sure when you guys mentioned Half Life, it would have been either the part where you're supposed to sneak past those bladed tentacle monsters (assuming you played the tutorial and remember you can crouch to sneak when you're half way through the game, given this is the only place you actually need to sneak), or the room where any wrong move, stray bullet, or wandering enemy causes a warehouse full of explosives to go off around you.

+Wicked Witch Of The West in the directors cut they added some stealth and hacking, most notably hacking. Like when you fight namir, there is a second floor with a vent that leads to a room with a camera and a terminal to hack which if done correctly spawns robots to fight him. With Barrett there is something similar with turrets, you can technically stealth both of these.

[@seanmdpa]

Thats because they were made by a different company.

Problem 4: Running out of Ammo Problem 5: Can't go into the water because you're slow and there may or may not have been some kind of shark thing in there Problem 6: No vehicles that would normally be everywhere that would allow you to make a hasty escape Problem 7: Getting stunlocked by enemy fire Conclusion: You've gotta wade through an area flooded with tough enemies that have good aim and hope that you're... what was it 10 hits?

You ended up literally going from houses with straw roofs and scavenging ancient relics in Jak 1, to suddenly a Dystopia Future where a COMPLETELY new enemy came out of nowhere. Flying cars are everywhere, there are now guns, as well as some kind of time travel shenanigans. That said for making such a dramatic jump in genres, they didn't botch it.

[@elizabethstevenson9707]

They're hard if you don't know how to stop your bike overheating and to toy with the screen resolution for smoother controls.

Ehh, guess I never had a problem with any of that.

[@ForgottenKnightKB]

I kind of enjoyed them, actually.

[@Tounushi]

My best time on the Ahto track of the swoop race circuit was 00:22.14. Went into a veritable trance. My friend was shocked about how the time I finally succeeded I beat the target time by nearly half a second after failing numerous times by about a tenth of a second.

[@StriderAnarchy99]

Oh good, I thought I was the only one.

[@AroAceEnbyTaste]

Let's be honest. With the time needed to model the bat mobile, they wanted to put the thing in the game long enough to justify the time taken to model, retop, texture, rig, and code the thing.

[@arthurfisher1857]

I almost gave up on that game completely. I was so excited after all the awesome things I heard about it and I can't describe how deflating it was that I couldn't seem to get past that stupid tutorial!! I did eventually but only weeks (maybe months) after I quit trying I gave it another go with a fresh mind and knowing what I was getting in to. I admit, it was pretty satisfying to beat, but still...

My guess is they had a writer take that bit without anyone else knowing the reference.

[@musashi939]

I hated that level, but the mood was awesome. Heck the mood in the whole game. The atmosphere is incomparable.

[@GorcStew]

yes comparable to the Half-Life ending...I guess a lot of games from those times felt the need to integrate some kind of platforming sequence in to it to nostalgically remind us of our Mario days or something...I don't think we will ever manage to understand the logic behind that.

[@xweert711]

[@AndDiracisHisProphet]

It's frustratingly wrong if you have the dexterity of a washing machine. Me, having the dexterity of a Sloth, beat it just fine at age 11 and enjoyed the heck out of it.

[@xweert711]

fotakatos What do you mean by that whole dexterity thing, though? I flew through Xen and I still love it, even now. It's more just my love of the place itself more than anything else. Like I didn't think it was a videogame masterpiece, I just really really love aliens.

[@sik3xploit]

A level where you have to actually observe the area and decide the proper method of progression and then handle it with some care will always suck for the casual peasants. Maybe they should go play some Madden instead.

The fade wasn't that bad imo. The deep roads were the real pain in the arse. It's just a never ending hell of darkspawn

[@sebastiandurando2493]

I agree with you, the Deep Roads were extremely repetitive and generic.

[@serPomiz]

the fade was a bit "trown there" with no rime no reason, while you where doing something more important, but neither eccesivelly difficoult or frustating. the deep roads, on the other end...

[@talonpop]

[@TheJosep70]

The whole time you had to escort Farah in Prince of Persia.

[@vasilis1677]

Whaaaat? Idk about the other sections but pod racing was fun as heck(done all the races) and the batmobile fighting all those drones was dope, it showed how awesome the batmobile could be, the sense of urgency making you try and kick their asses asp and it definitely felt like the best possible way to do a runner up for the end of the game showing just how serious the situation was. Honestly i wouldn't mind replaying that section😂😂😂(if nothing else i'd love it)

[@leftfieldrebel950]

the worse half life level is towards the start, shipping crates mid air with insta death

[@snark567]

On a rail is one of those segments that you can blaze trough if you know what you are doing. But yes if you play it normally it drags on quite a bit. When I first played the game I felt like most of the game was this level.

[@AndDiracisHisProphet]

snark567 ok, how can you blaze through it? would help if I ever decide to play it again^^

[@leftfieldrebel950]

i really liked on a rail honestly

[@Zodicus]

No mention of the infamous mission where you get your favourite ex-gangster playable character, your soon-to-be traitorous childhood friend, a cheap dirt bike and a train full of murderous rival gang members in San Andreas? Just searching for "The train level" on Google will bring it up.

[@bluedistortions]

These guys have a history of proving "impossible controls" by just.. leaving the clearly marked path and ramping hills. the racing level in Mafia is challenging, but not sloppy. I get the feeling these guys are just journalists who work for a game mag, not gamers.

[@rainbinedash2022]

Do you live in a bunker?

[@mc_sea]

I have played that level and I can approve that people's complaints are right about the controls. I've had some experience for racing games but the controls felt so slippery and even the slightest nudge could send you off course.

[@gandolf8888]

I liked the turrets. The only issue I had was the random ones triggering all the time while backtracking to places you'd already been before.

[@RandomPerson-tn2ck]

No Blighttown from Dark Souls?! It constantly lags, the whole place is a giant maze, and once you get to the bottom it's a poison filled bog. I love Dark Souls, but I will always hate that level.

[@nootnootabibatoot892]

Blighttown has good atmosphere, the lag isn't that bad, not too complicated and good enemies. The poison bog is easy because you just roll through it and eat purple moss on the other side. git gud

[@RandomPerson-tn2ck]

+Lori I've gotten the "Dark Soul" achievement -_- I just hate the lag and confusing maze if you don't know where your going, although the poison bog is better than the rest of it.

[@arkanjoteixeira]

The Framerate was insufferable on that part, keep in mind that I played on 360. Also the layout was very confusing, but getting out of Blighttown was one of most rewarding experiences ever xD

[@Mahuallica]

Blightown is really not that bad; great atmosphere, albeit a bit laggy. Dark Souls 3's Farron keep on the other hand... it's just a generic swamp area with annoying enemies that takes forever to go through in it's entirety because you can't run and everything looks the fucking same.

In my original play-through of Half Life, I got to Xen and straight up forgot that you could long jump. I got through all of the platforming using the charge-up function of the laser gun by jumping, letting go of the charge in mid-air, and hitting those weird spires that were in the middle of a lot of them. It was only years later when I heard someone talking about that same section and how easy it is and realizing that I made it infinitely harder than the level had to be

[@strawberryduchess656]

Ok maybe this is hyper specific but the pod racing level in the Lego Star Wars game. That level usually made me put the game down for a few months then restart cause I forgot what happened/didn’t want to do it.

Theres a that one part in dragon age origins when you're the mage and in the beginning in the face saving everyone theres that one room in the fire part where those 4 enemies insta kill you if you open the door because they have extremely high attack. The only way to bear it is to have some sore of frost magic to help you and to trick two of them into the room before so you can pick them off easier.

Personally I love the Batmobile combat. I've never thought of the controls as clunky. If the clunkiness comes from the cooldown on dodging, I always view that as a strategy aspect. You might be able to just sidestep regularly, and you'll always be able to dodge all of the lines of fire

[@malindemunich2883]

After replaying the game on Rare Replay with the ability to save, rewind, and whatnot... That bike level that always seemed the worst when I was a kid was nothing once I got to experience the ... unicycle? whatever it was level toward the end. I've never experienced such microprecision needed in a game ever. Just.. soooo hard.
