"You have all the power in the world, can slice through a steel army like butter, but tell me adventure, can you break a locked door?"

Aw, damn it. I'm the legendary hero saving the world from an unprecedented threat, but I just can't seem to get past this TREE in the middle of the road! This immovable obstacle is the one thing halting me in my quest!

...What do you mean, "just go around it"? Blasphemy!

This made me think of Crisis Core.

My stats could literally go no higher, even after breaking the stat parameters, every attack I did inflicted every status ailment including death, I killed the god of the life stream, I was the apex of stats, skills, and equipment. And then a bunch of Shinra chaff kill me. I literally killed god, and other gods, and Sephiroth at his prime, but was taken out by frontline infantry. #justiceforzack

Or when the characters forget about their bag full of revive potions as they watch their beloved companions die. It's not like the potions are rare or unique, every store in the world sells them, even your car sells them in FF15.

The enemies clearly know about them too, how else would you explain the unlimited supply soldiers and monsters we use to grind levels?
