Which games are the worst offenders for letting you upgrade a character/inventory only to lose it all part way through the game. (alien.top)

I am playing Horizon Zero Dawn and haven’t gotten to the first main event, but it gives me this feeling like if I upgrade all my equipment now it might be for nothing. I know that is not the case, I looked it up, but what are some games that are the worst offenders? One I can think of is Aerith in the original FF7.

This applies to pretty much every Far Cry game. I don't remember if the first one does it, but from Far Cry 2 and onward, they all do it. I love the Far Cry series but I dread the mission that yoinks all my weapons away and then I have to manually add them all back later.

I loved 3, never finished 4, loved 5. Should I get 6?

FWIW, vanilla FC6 is only $11 in their current sale, at least in the US shop. I just picked it up last night.

(I also grabbed Watch_Dogs 3 for $6.)

The first game definitely does it. At one point, you are kicked out of a heli, only with an M16 and 2/3rds of a mag, right in front of one mutant ninja monkey thingy.
