I collect every single potion in a Final Fantasy game, just in case I need it for the final boss.

[–] FunkyMonk@kbin.social 25 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I don't know... what if this final bosses final form isn't really the final?

[–] PixxlMan@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What if there's a secret extra boss afterwards?

[–] superduperenigma@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

What is there's an extra secret boss if you finish new game+?

[–] 404@lemmy.zip 26 points 2 years ago

"Better save it for the final boss"

"Ooooo I wonder if I can finish this boss without healing, that would be a fun challenge"

[–] henfredemars 21 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Reminds me of when you get Super Cool Weapon when there's only two fights left before the game is over.

[–] coffinwood@feddit.de 17 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's most annoying. I can live with chests and drawers full of potions. But imagine how much work an artist put into a beautiful item like a weapon or an armour piece, and then it's never used because it drops from the final boss only.

Who am I supposed to kill with that superior war-axe anyway, there's no enemy left? Give me these items mid-game, so I can enjoy and cherish them.

[–] Z3k3@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

And then the sequel comes out and now that war axe is the worst item in the game.

Looking at you witcher 2

[–] Gerudo@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

Every WoW expansion as well.

[–] FunkyMonk@kbin.social 6 points 2 years ago

and there is no new game +

[–] the_beber@lemm.ee 16 points 2 years ago (1 children)

My head-canon is now, that your character then becomes a merchant, trying to sell off these items. Thus helping the next adventurer ~~to hoard~~ and completing the cycle.

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Nah, I'm a dragon I'll just sit on it forever until someone vanquishes me and takes my horde.

[–] squeakycat@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I used to hoard items but found a lot of fun in liberally using things when I need them instead. Let go, try it!

[–] RobertOwnageJunior@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Last game I did this was Elden Ring. It's crazy how strong quite a few consumables are.

[–] TonyTonyChopper@mander.xyz 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

It's so infuriating how few rune arcs you get in singleplayer. I never used the great runes. And the power they give you is so much less than it would seem with how rare the items are. Malenia's is a joke

[–] RobertOwnageJunior@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

That's true. I bought the ones I could, but it's kinda cruel they only last until you die. In a game that's designed to kill you. Honestly, they should've made them permanent.

[–] RedAggroBest@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's because the most consistent source for them is multiplayer. Help people beat bosses, invade, counter invade, all these give rune arcs and that's pretty standard a FS game. Usually the humanity-equivalents like rune arcs also open you up to invasion as a cost, but Elden Ring isn't that punishing with it, but they still wanted people trying multi.

[–] TonyTonyChopper@mander.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

The issue I have is that the game doesn't have ultrawide support so I need a mod to play it. So I can't play online. But yeah the multiplayer is super fun so I've turned them off once in a while.

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

I've done this for a while now and it does really improve my experience. Usually you are given stuff before a boss or hard part anyway and I'd have surplus anyway. Exception are games that are really hard where they're like "wtf you didn't save up for this fight? ooh boy you are going to die"

[–] Whirling_Ashandarei@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm trying to use stuff in BG3 and I struggle with it so hard lol maybe on the next play through!

[–] SHOW_ME_YOUR_ASSHOLE@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The problem in BG3 is all the shit I have in my inventory isn't the stuff I want to use. There are a few elixirs I really like but I never seem to have them or their ingredients in my bags.

[–] Whirling_Ashandarei@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Very true. At this point I'm just trying to use it to have some semblance of order back. It's very irritating to try and order things on console.

[–] RedAggroBest@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Send things you aren't going to actively use to camp. You can always take a quick trip to camp to grab them if needed.

[–] M500@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

I was playing sea of starts and there are some items that I planned to hoard be user who knows if I’ll need them. Well the item description says that it’s meant to be sold.

Thank you!!

[–] EfreetSK@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Hey I was saving it for the final boss ok?

[–] Damaskox@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Skyrim, HP & mana potions, overencumburance...sigh...

[–] Norgur@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago
[–] Heikki@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I hord it all then make the final boss trivial as I mercilessly use all the powerful items in my inventory.

That's when they hit you with the fake final boss trope.
