GeorgeCostanzaTheMovie Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Ready for probably the most pathetic story you'll hear in a while? I got this game for christmas back in 2005 or 2006 and I was I think 11 or 12. I liked this game a lot until I got to this mission, deconstruction, the one where you have to bury the foreman alive. When I first did this mission and got to the part where you had to push him into a ditch I had a panic attack and couldn't do it (I'm not kidding), so I quit the game and didn't play for a week after. I couldn't handle the idea of being buried alive and just thinking about it freaked me out. For months I tried to beat it but it physically felt like I just couldn't do it, kind of like how you can easily bite off your finger but your brain stops you, that's what it was like. I'm not even kidding that mission really scared me, I would get like anxiety attacks just thinking about it (I have border-line anxiety disorder btw). So after several months I got one of my friends to beat it for me and that's the only way I was ever able to proceed. For years I kept that special save for after that mission and would just play that when I got to that point. Eventually around 2008 Fallout 3 came out and I lost interest in GTA for a while, I didn't get 4 until a couple of years after. Every time I heard of GTA SA I instantly thought of that mission. Any way, recently I got SA for steam on PC and decided to play through the story with mods. I thought of that mission again and downloaded a save that came after it. I was on my way through the story, still in LS, and I thought why after all of these years am I STILL terrified of this mission? And honestly, I wasn't, too much anymore. I thought about it and now that I'm 21 I felt a lot more comfortable playing that mission. So today I finally beat it. While doing it my heart was pounding, the fear was coming back, but I did it. I pushed that foreman into the ditch and dumped that cement all over his poop infested out house like a champ. The fracking mission has been haunting my gaming life for nine years, and I have finally conquered it. Yes, I am well aware how sad this is. Thanks for reading.
