For example, I was watching my gf play Mario Odyssey, and she got super stuck trying to kill a Piranha Plant. She would throw her hat at it, it would eat the hat, and she would just run into it thinking it would die, instead of jumping on it.

She totally forgot you could jump on things because so many things die can die from your hat that she rarely ever jumps on things.

Myself, I was playing Fallout and was fighting some mirelurks. I was wondering why I was doing almost no damage to them until I realized just putting shots into their shell wouldn't actually do that much damage.

Most recently I was doing a thing in Night in the Woods with a yes/no prompt, accidentally picked no and got locked out of an extra scene. Had to literally restart the game for it

How in the hell do you forget a Mario staple like that???

Trying to make an impossible jump because it seemed like the only way to get to where I needed to go/wanted to go, overlooking the easy intended way to get there.

I'm not giving a specific example because over the years this has happened like 5 times, though I usually actually DO manage the jump by breaking things anyway so it's kind of fun.

After extended play time in Borderlands 2 I went back to Skyrim and forgot that fall damage is a thing and tried to jump off a mountain.

BL2 has no fall damage so yeah...

I legitimately asked her the same and she said she didn't forget, she just kept using her hat to kill things all game that she just never used jump instead and got used to only using her hat against enemies

I honestly can't think of any off the top of my head.

I know my friend went through most of the Skyrim storyline without ever figuring out how to actually figure out the dragon claw door puzzles in dragon keeps. He legit thought it was just trial and error.

I forgot how to shoot in Halo 2. Worst part is, it happened in the MIDDLE of a level. My brain just shut down hard for no reason.

In the game Severance: Blade of Darkness as I played as the barbarian character I never figured out how to get to the room to get his upgraded armor. Turned out you just needed to bash the door down. There was no puzzle to get to the room.

Well I finished the game withouth the upgraded armor so I guess it was alright, but man did I feel stupid when my friend pointed it out later. Good game though.

In Dragon Quest IX I wasn't paying attention to whatever said that you needed to get your party members from a recruitment office.

Played nearly 25 hours solo before looking up why I wasn't encountering anybody that joined my group, missed it back in the 1st town. Had to look it up because bosses were getting 3 turns lol

In MGS3, I didn't realize that Eva and Tanya were the same person until Ocelot points out Eva's perfume. I felt genuinely ashamed of myself.

i didnt think they'd make it so obvious tbh, i thought they were different for a while too
