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 kind of applies for Far Cry 5, in the region in the bottom left of the map progressing enough will have kidnapped and brought to a bunker which you have to escape. You lose everything you have on you, while you can get your guns back you have purchase all grenades and ammo again which costs a lot.

that's why i dropped that game, especially after getting kidnapped by the cannibal who drug you to kill your friends.

When i realised that I really felt like my progression didn't fucking matter. The kidnapping sequence became absurd because the more you resist kidnapping squads the more powerful ennemies pops out of nowhere while the game make it so that you die of a single bullet.

Even with that I was crushing them so hard the game basically shut me down and killed me instantly to trigger the event
