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.

The funny thing is, the reason, according to Ubisoft why the game has no progression for the co-op partner, only the host, so they can "experience their own unique journey".

Good lord that's a stupid reason.

Getting knocked out is annoying, extremely so as you can't avoid it anyway, you hit that cap and YOU WILL get kidnapped no matter what.

As a free roam game, just derping around, especially so with a friend is actually really fun, but good lord does the game want you to not do that.

even when ubisoft makes a good game they have to go and ubisoft it up. what a terrible company. i wouldn't dare put that shit on my resume

I absolutely hated Far Cry 5. To the point I quit playing them. I hated all the forced mission progression because exploring an open world is awesome. Taking that away just was never fun.
