The Internet is still rife with gamers demanding to know how they can save Lord Rydell after they've wasted hours trying to find the key. It doesn't help that keys to cells and floors are all over the Tower of Latria and the clue you get can easily be interpreted as hinting that one of the Fat Officials in Worlds 1 or 2 is holding the key. You need to get Pure White World tendency for World 3 and then locate the key in World 3-2. You find him in his cell easily and you're given a definite clue as to where the key to his cell is, so you just need to find it, right? Wrong. Probably the most notorious example is Lord Rydell in the Tower of Latria. Going along with World Tendency, there are several visible side areas that can't be accessed and Non Player Characters with side quests that can't be completed without the right Tendency, and there's no indication that you won't be able to do these things in the normal course of gameplay.No surprise that it's the most hated feature of the game and was scrapped for future games. Certain events can also only occur in certain Tendencies as well. This is doubly annoying because it automatically changes the difficulty of the game based on player actions - and certain items can only be gotten in certain Tendencies. The World Tendency system is complicated and confusing even with a guide.Without a guide you may lose even the vendors before you realise where he is and that you must kill him. *if* you find him and talk to him in the obscure place he's hiding at in the hub. Then don't realise it's Yurt who's killing them! Granted, he does tell you his mission is to eliminate everyone. Then fail to notice that the other NPCs in the hub are turning up dead one by one. Then keep progressing after he appears in the hub (which is not initially after you rescue him, but after you beat a specific boss). Remember those NPCs you find in the various zones? Remember how you rescue them and they become part of the hub area, often becoming useful vendors and the like? Well, the joke's on you if you do this with Yurt. Demon's Souls contains one of the worst examples, though.In fact, this trope's prevalence has resulted in some people who read the included guide not finding the game nearly as "hard" as everyone claims it is. Although not quite as labyrinthine in its requirements, its predecessor Demon's Souls also had issues with this - to the point that the US release actually came with the strategy guide simply to explain its mechanics.
