Title: What is the most brutal self-imposed challenge you've ever done?
Post by: Deku on August 06, 2011, 01:42:54 PM
I would normally come right out and say the Nuzlock Challenge...

But I still have flashbacks to the Master Quest 3-Heart challenge.
Morpha is a hell of a challenge when you only have three hearts.

I'd say riding across the country was pretty brutal. Especially in the second ride in Nevada. Just a tip: Hot Gatorade does not taste good, nor does it help you.

I watched The Room several times.

And I went into acting.

My Long Distance Relationship.

Also, that reminds me ZV, I think I'm gonna play the Nuzlocke challenge in my SoulSilver version, since I just reset it. I'll chronicle it on my blog.

Awesome! I was actually thinking about restarting my heart-gold for another Nuzlock challenge too. But then I got Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon for like 15 bucks and its been eating up most of my time. ;)

Hmm, that's a tough question.  The hardest self-imposed challenge I've ever done was probably the plasma cutter challenge, where you have to beat Dead Space on the hardest difficulty with only the starter weapon.  Of course, I had already run through the game once, so I had the best armor and all the upgrades for the weapon, but it was still a HUGE pain in the butt.

For me, probably going through with the Cave of Ordeals Three-Heart Challenge.

Or playing as Aqua on Critical Mode in Birth by Sleep. *shudder*

Here is the link to my Nuzlocke Challenge run (http://roysjourneys.tumblr.com/)

It's an RP account too, but expect updates daily, at least one a day, with how my pokemon level and such.

I have tomorrow and the day after off, expect tons of updates.

How did I not notice this before? XDDDD

But yes, Havoc makes a valid point.

For me, it'll be walking cross country and then swimming to Hawaii.
