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

I gave up on point and click games when the solution to a problem in Monkey Island 2 was to put a fucking dog in your pocket. Even the look Guybrush gives when he stuffs the dog in is like "bet you didn't think to do that initially huh..?'
The funny thing is that LucasArts games were done as the "antithesis" to Sierra games, as the latter were chock full of cheap deaths and "Did you remember to do some little side thing 2 hours ago? No? Progress locked, fuck you" situations
Oh right .. Yeah at least with all the Lucas arts games you would just be stuck and not perma fucked.
Like letting a rat live when you only have literal seconds
