This thread is about my brother, as hes the one who got the question in my mind.
Earlier he was in my room and decided to pick up Deus Ex: Human Revolution. I had no idea. But when I finally went back in my room, I found that he had progressed way farther in the story than I had and was empty on ammo.
I went up to him and said, "Damn. How did you get to China so fast? It took me like... 7 hours."
"Seven hours? God, you're slow. Anyways, I have a question, why is this game so hard? I havent found a single piece of ammo for like 30 minutes, and the game doesnt have anywhere you can buy some."
"Um, yes it does. You just have to look for the ammo, and then you'll find it."
"Show me"
So I grabbed the controller, and walked around for a little bit. I eventually went into a building and found a guns and ammo scattered all over the place.
"See? You just have to explore a little. Maybe do side quests."
"There are side quests in this game"
After I said that, I facepalmed and left.
I ask this question here, because it seems that a lot of young gamers just run towards the finish and dont pay attention to some things that could actually help them, whereas more mature gamers tend to look around at every nook and cranny to find something of interest.
