What are some good examples of "Where the fuck do you go" kind of games? (lemmy.world)

We've all played them. Backtracking, not knowing where to go. Going back and forth. Name some of these games from your memory. I'll start: Final Fantasy XIII-2, RE1

This one's pretty controversial, but if you've never played it before,

Half Life 1

It's really confusing and enemies will pop out of nowhere and kill you instantly. Not really fun imo, but then again I AM playing it for the first time 27 years after it came out ๐Ÿ˜‚

I'm sure Black Mesa is more intuitive though.

Make sure you listen to the NPCs. They give you clues like being quiet around the big beaky things that one shot you. Also, if it is really big you guns do nothing. Go and find the other way to destroy it.

Which bits in particular? Because on one hand it's a fairly linear design, but on the other there are some bits that can loop around themselves and objectives aren't always obvious.

past the first few chapters it got a bit confusing, but the train trolly thing was like a maze and I kept going in circles for so long ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

Oh I completely get you, on a rail is a famously difficult spot for a lot of people. I think the lack of landmarks and long duration really hurts that chapter. If it's any consolation it's mostly a one off situation, and yeah black mesa doesn't really have an equivalent.
