What is the hardest video game(s) in your opinion, why, and what other games are you comparing against to make this conclusion? (lemmy.world)

Forgot what made me think about this topic but I've been considering this for a week or two... Curious what you all think.

When I mean "hardest" "video game", I mean whatever game that you find objectively more difficult than all other ones on the market, as long as it's a video game. I guess exposure to different genres/types of games can influence the answer to this question a lot so... Hence I was curious about your rationale.

I have a pretty solid answer & rationale but I guess I shouldn't share that in the main post to bias results...

If you want some basic tips, here is what has worked well for me:

  • Surprise enemies as often as you can so you get auto hits (use doors)
  • Focus on one character at a time until you win, then move on to the next - each one requires a different strategy
  • Save up your enchantment scrolls until you get good weapons, armor, rings, etc. Don't dump your enchantment scrolls into a dagger or leather armor. Hold out for a great sword, great axe, etc. and plate armor.
  • Save up scrolls of mapping and potions of mind vision for the demon halls (last levels of the game). They are full of traps and fairly tough enemies so having maps and knowing where enemies are is huge.
