whats a game that you got significantly far into, only to realize you were doing something wrong or missing a key feature/ability altogether?

    Black & White

    It has a mechanic where you bless a stone, then throw it across the map, and you get to build and influence an area around the rock. Basically it is the only sane way to expand.

    I did not know. I spent painstaking hours slowly growing my village trying to get its area of influence to spread into where I needed to go.

      You can also throw that annoying immortal guy who somehow allows you to use your powers around wherever he is

      Oh my god I never learnt this! That would’ve made the final level so much easier

        I may have misunderstood, though. This is my vague memory of a friend trying to explain to me how I was supposed to have played the game after I gave up and uninstalled it long ago.

          If you use your godhand to place a boulder in the midst of one of the villages worshiping you, the villagers will start praying and dancing and chanting and whatnot around the boulder. After a long enough time with the villagers charging the bolder, it would radiate with your divine presence. At this point, it is a ready “artifact”.

          Artifacts don’t expand you influence zone directly, but they do a really good job of getting non-believer villagers to start worshiping you, which does extend your influence in a major way.
