7 Most Violent Shopkeepers You Really Don't Want to Steal From
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 авг 2024
- Shopkeepers in games exist to sell you useful items and buy haunted dolls you don’t want to keep in your inventory. Should you break this contract and steal from an in-game shopkeeper, though, beware: some are waiting for just such an opportunity to flip out and go ham on your stupid unprepared face with more ferocity and firepower than many an actual boss.

Surprised Kelcon from Pokémon Mystery Dungeon is not on the list, considering he's gets other powerful shopkeepers to attack you until you reach the next dungeon floor.
Ikr me and a few others mention it, that kelkeon has clearly been hitting the gym
@@sleepykittyMMD From what I heard he is set to Lv. 100 hence why he and the other Kelkons are very powerful. Facing one is bad enough but a swarm is worse.
Its like fighting dozen of mini bosses at once
I'm not gonna lie, I came to the comments to say this and immediately saw your comment, truly a cultured person 🙏
Kecleon scared me to the point where I never bought from him after mistakenly leaving without playing
The Kecleon Union is not to be messed with!
I love in Hades how Zagreus starts just asking Charon if he wants to fight when he steals.
Ultimately Charon doenst give much of a fuck because he knows Zagreus will just die later in the run anyways, maybe after beating Hades.
What! You can steal from Charon
@@ja-king3067 After you build your relationship with him, via nectar, a bag of money will sometimes appear behind him.
Also, Nyx let’s you know later that Charon only considers it good fun/combat training after you beat him once, i believe
@@Xero_Soul_32 Hermes also tells you Charon isn't mad, if you choose his boon after losing the fight for the first time. It HAS to be the run after the fight.
I beat him the first time, so I missed it until late in the game.
Two additional points about the Crypt of the Necrodancer shopkeeper.
One: His name is Freddie Merchantry
Two: If you kill him, his ghost shows up a few levels later to attack you
First time I killed him it was on accident: Red Dragon breathed fire on him, I was trying to kill it with a bomb, had the bomb charm, killed Freddie, felt Bad.
Saw his ghost later on, felt **worst**
If I remember correctly his ghost is named Phantom of the opera :)
Love to see Crypt of the Necrodancer getting some recognition
Freddie Merchantry. That's officially the best name for a shopkeep character I've ever heard, bar none.
@@pidbul530 if I’m not mistaken it’s actually phantom of the shopera
Skyrim - "You little theif!"
Also Skyrim - "Wow, the inside of this bucket is remarkable! Reality is a joke to me now. Where am I? My shop? I have a shop? No sir, I have an inside of a bucket. Good day Sir.''
Perhaps as a sequel/offshoot to this, *7 video game shopkeepers who need to be fired immediately* 😂✌
And previously in the elder scrolls series, in Daggerfall:
Instantly teleported super-guards whenever you steal during day, but... just go to sleep in the shop, wake up in there at night, and then you can steal whatever you like! *clap*
@@ApMignonne I used to be a shopkeeper, like you. But then I took bad coding to the knee. 😂😂👍👀
LOVED THIS
XD
lmfao
What about the Kecleons in the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon series? Steal from them, and all the sudden you get swarmed by an army of bloodthirsty Kecleons that know your exact location and are permanently set to the highest speed stat, allowing them to hit multiple times per turn, which they don't even need to since most of the time they can just one hit KO you.
Yeah, I was waiting for that one, too.
Just stock up on revive seeds
That's how I got past them one time
@@sayoriplus3825 Use a Trawl Orb next to the stairs (this option has been removed in Gates to Infinity though). But you can still steal the items and then eat a Pure Seed to teleport to the stairs room.
Unless you have great items or cheats
In Twilight Princess, there’s a bird merchant outside the game’s first dungeon who you can effectively steal from, much to his infuriation. Although all he really does is peck at you until you either pay or leave.
I did that by accident my first time and didn't know I could pay after. I always payed extra on future playthroughs out of guilt
Or, even better, since it is technically pay as you want, for 1 rupee, you get the item with no fighting, he does call you a cheapskate until you pay the actual price.
Is it a crow? Because I really really would not want to piss off a crow.
@@SwordsmanStudios *paid
@@laura121684 get laid*
So many people have mentioned Kecleon in Mystery Dungeon that I must point out: not only is he the most powerful Pokemon in the game, he also has like a 0.1% chance of recruitment. Lower than all the Legendaries.
Only if you are level 90+ and have everything equiped that gives you better chances at recruiting. It starts of at -39.9
@@varenlarestian9190 what In the hell?
Fighting Ronald McDonald for a discount would be great, until you remember that Charon's discount only applies to the run where you beat him. If you want the discount again, you'll have to fight him again -- so, if you want 20% off at McDonald's, you'll have to fight Ronald EVERY TIME.
To be fair that is basically a 20% discount until you die
They do say exercise grants you an appetite
I could take Ronald McDonald. But somehow, i feel the discount doesnt apply for uber
I think most of us are still on our first runs, so that doesn't seem to be an issue there.
Uhhh... if yall think you can take on Ronald McDonald.. you haven't seen the terrifying force he actually is. Just look at him in Rivals of Aether, him being one of if not the most op character in the game
"I reckon I could take Ronald McDonald."
Those are some brave last words, man.
Imagine the force ol’ Ron can put into a tornado kick in those huge boots.... *shudder
Mugen Ronald McDonald flashbacks
Some one call the meat wagon we got another one who thinks he can take on ITs brother
after watching Earthbound gigyas's theme RONALDver. there's no way I'd ever go anywhere near that clown (or indeed a McDonald's)
In comes in Japanese McDonald's aka the mcfondler
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon DX: If you steal from the Kecleon shop in the dungeon they summon all the other Kecleon there are to swarm the floor and accost you at every opportunity until you find the way out. Or you die. Whichever happens first.
They always do that in every game, and they do *NOT* spare anyone.
Don't forget his ability: Color Change.
And the game somewhat encourages you to try it (or at least in the original, I haven't looked into if this is the case in DX), because if you manged to beat him he'll join your team.
Yeah I was really surprised not to see Kecleon in this video!
@@AceRide and I think it's the only way to get a Kecleon on your team
The Emil fight is much much more. After that initial fight find him out out the caverns and you can fight the REAL super boss of the game. Be sure to have all of weapons fully upgraded to get the true ending!
Right and if you save without getting the correct ending because you didn't upgrade all your weapons before the superboss, you will need to replay and get back to level 99 once more, basically a full restart of the game.
Wait what happens when you don't have all the weapon upgrades?
I remember Emil initiating the quest once I had them, is there a way to initiate it yourself?
@@runtergerutscht4401 it's a complete redo of the game. And I mean a complete redo all the way to 99 and redoing all the weapons.
@@runtergerutscht4401 and if you don't do absolutely everything. You can't kill him at the countdown. Locking you out of the ability to see the super secrete completionist ending. You only get the mostly secrete ending instead.
@@kalin6149 I'm slightly confused. So if you lack all upgrades, you can't kill Emil, so he explodes. Right? So you get the ending and can come back again when you're ready, right?
Also what endings, you mean ending E or?
I remember one time I was playing Link's Awakening with a Game Genie, and I had invincibility turned on. I entered the shop after stealing the bow, and since the shopkeeper's beam couldn't harm me, I was soft-locked and had to reset.
The first time I "borrowed" from charon, not knowing what to expect...managed to beat him after losing 3 death defiances 😭 now I just enjoy the record scratch and the ominous turn around to face you
Yea some how I beat him as well 😆
That is one of the few moments in a video game where I instantly regretted my decision. I was not prepared xD
If you like Hades I think you will like Dead Cells
It’s definitely on my “want to play” list.
@@scarletarrowgaming5843 Oh you should my only regret was I didn't get it sooner because a friend told me I should get it
No Kecleon from the mystery dungeon games? That guy was an absolute beast and waaaaaay stronger than anything else
I remember literally taking long ways round avoiding even stepping on his store just in case I might accidentally steal something
@@JanAside it was such a pain when you had hard fought your way through a dungeon just to be killed by our unkillable god Kecleon
@@JanAside You do know you don't auto-pickup unbought goods, right?
@@alduintheanti-dragonborn Actually, at least back in "Blue Rescue Team", you DO auto-pickup stuff in his shop. That got me killed once.
@@alduintheanti-dragonborn In Blue/Red, you did. I don't remember if Explorers did or not, though.
Yes ive been suggesting this for ages
A bonus shopkeeper is "the shopkeeper" from one step from eden
Its by far the hardest fight in the game

God forbid you steal from a Kecleon in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon. The floor will be immediately swarmed with more Kecleon, and every single one of them can one-shot you
I know another instance from the Zelda series, when playing Twilight Princess I forgot to pay the afro bird who sells potions near the forest temple. When I accidentally walked away from the shop, the bird got angry and mauled me to death. When I talked to the bird again, he called me a thief, but I paid him back for the potion and it never happened again. So yeah, refilling the potion from the afro bird without depositing rupees in the little and it'll maul you to death.
Exact same thing happened to me. I left the shop while attempting to figure out how to pay the little bastard. Out of anger for that unnecessary murder of me, I now only pay 1 rupee for anything I buy off him. He won't kill you, just call you a cheapskate.
I have to question how you've managed to get killed by Plum, she only does 1/4 heart per hit
@@thrasher698 Only three hearts because it was right at the start, running around the area like a lunatic trying to find the money box in the hopes giving money would get the damn thing to stop.
I'm super surprised that Shopkeeper from One Step From Eden isn't on here!
She's a bonkers superboss if you decide to attack her, and you *do* get money if you hit her, so that's technically stealing! You do still have to beat her to be able to play her... or complete the game in true fashion, but still!
I had my first big brain moment as a kid by naming my character THIEF from the very beginning. Take that, Nintendo! Try to teach ME morals, will you?!
Don’t forget the Kecleon in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games!!! They will absolutely wreck you if you steal from them
Video idea: accidentally hilarious moments in video games, like moments that were meant to be scary or intense but just ended up being silly.
So, like the failed quick time event in Spider-Man 3?
@@Xone9 Or the entirety of the first Resident Evil cutscenes?
All I can think of for this is the bug from Heavy Rain where you repeatedly yell out "Shaun"
Borderlands The Pre-sequel. There is a part where you think you're gonna have an epic boss fight with the first mate of some pirate crew on a space ship. When he shows up he ends up getting killed by the ship's giant, malfunctioning, automatic doors 😂😂😂😂.
Me when fighting Zant. He was supposed to be creepy in TP, but he was one useless but hilarious son of a gun. Try listening to Stamp on the Ground by Italo Brothers while fighting him. 😂😂😂
Player : "I wonder how much this costs. Mmm beter take it to the shop keep and ask how much it costs."
Oblivion shopkeepers when you pick up a item: "How dare you steal from me gaurds gaurds!!! We have a thief in here. " (Grabs knife and attacks player)
I'm guessing they're onto us by then
Andy! You put that haunted doll back where you found it.... underneath the couch in Jane's secret basement laboratory that we all know about and for some odd reason Jane doesn't seem to mind.
Wasn't there a demon you could "buy" stuff from in Castlevania 64? The strange thing is I don't remember my money going down buying from him, but if I remember correctly, "buying" too much from him will result in you having to face him in a boss battle at the end of the game.
If that doesn't count, there is the unassuming local guy watching the self service stand in Earthbound's Happy Happy Village. Not a power house, but given that it was a pain to get to the town, if you die to him or the painters there and you didn't save at the store, you're going to have to go back through the valley again. So much for free chicken money.
yes, the "demon merchant" will attack you at the end if you spend something like 30,000 gold throughout the game.
i only saw that once, i usually don't need to buy anything but a few extra sun and moon cards.
Yep. Renon the merchant. Spend 30,000+ in his shop, and he fights you right before you take on Dracula. He's just a reskin of the Clock Tower boss, so it shouldn't be too hard.
I never understood why he attacks you for purchasing from him. The contract is for the sale of goods in return for coin of the realm...why is Reinhardt's soul forfeit into the deal?
Not a shopkeeper, but the librarian OD in Bloodstained Ritual of the Night gets pretty touchy if you borrow a certain book into the final dungeon. If you beat him though, you can take and keep all his books with impunity and he has to sit there wearing Groucho Marx glasses as you rack up overdue fees
You forgot to mention the best part! That he's a giant reference to Alucard in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, right down to having the same voice actor!
Apparently if you beat him you also get to stop time
I gotta throw in Orlok Dracule from Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night
Okay, so he's a Librarian rather than a legitimate shopkeeper, but he does lend you books that will improve your abilities. Take a book too far though, and he will encounter you in a boss battle. This guy is a pain in the butt. He can freeze time, teleport about, and generally make survival aggravating even if you're already so powerful you can delete anything else around you. However, if you beat him, you can return to the Library and then borrow ALL of the books instead of just one, because your display of power makes you the new Librarian.
Thanks for giving us the name
A few people remember him but not his name
XD
Oops
Wrong game
I think that guy’s name is Dracula-related…
@@Ramsey276one Don't feel bad. I had to google it myself because I thought of him and couldn't remember his name either.
If it helps Count Orlok is the vampire from Nosferatu
Dungeons of Dredmore has a pretty terrifying shopkeeper. Steal from him, and even if you manage to get out you’re going to have an endless swarm of shopkeepers to deal with. It isn’t worth it, even if you kit yourself out with end level gear.
Great video, hope you all do a sequel!
Not exactly stealing from but crossing Andre from the Dark Souls games is a big dropkick-y mistake
Or the Undead Merchant if you're just starting your first playthrough
@@WhatTheVoice Any DS merchant really, I remember accidentaly hitting the mage class vendor in DS1 on my first playthrough, and any time I would get closer to him he would go into murderous rage, which sucked because, guess what my class was ? And the purging stone COST SO MUCH SOULS.
Here for this. Where’s my boy Andre?
Kecleon from pokemon mystery dungeon if you steal from him a battle ensues and his ability color change gets in the way A LOT plus the entire dungeons floor is covered with more kecleon
Beedle from Skyward Sword is an interesting one, you can't exactly steal from him, but I'd say dropping you out of his shop because you don't buy anything is pretty violent (what if I just didn't know I didn't have enough rupees, given going inside is the only way to check.)
On the topic of Beedle, Wild Beedle (from Breath of the Wild) will audibly mutter about hiring thieves (or possibly hitmen) to hunt down Link if the hero refuses to trade away an Energetic Rhino Beetle. Never follows through on it though, to my knowledge.
Another not mentioned aspect of the Crypt of the Necrodancer merchant is that if you do kill him, he won't show up ever again on any subsequent areas for that run, and two areas after the one you kill it in, you will be chased by its ghost. It only has 1HP, goes through walls and moves the same as the original, but you get an achievement for killing him (the ghost, you get no achievement for killing the shopkeeper)
Oh, and he's also named Freddy Merchantry. And his ghost is the Phantom of the Shopera.
I love this game so much.
One Step From Eden, literally named Shopkeeper, will bury you faster than you could say, "Oops." You can even play as her and bury other people before they can start monologuing.
YES! Shopkeep is awesome and she definitely needs to be on the fan commentary version of this video.
Yeah, but to be fair shopkeeper can’t be stolen from. You just have to attempt to murder her
@@jakecarlson3709 You get money after beating her.
When you play as her you find out that her cash is her HP, while her general personality is that she loves her money.
Given the above, it doesn't seem likely that she'd voluntarily hand over her dosh, which kinda implies you essentially beat her up to steal it from her.
That's fair. It also kinda shows through when you take a hard path and can buy from her using your life as currency
@@jakecarlson3709 Or when you sell her your blood for moola, in the regular shop.
Side note, how does she get that blood out of you? Does she have a portable blood donation station out back, or does she just take it back alley style? If she does have a station, was her having it, at that point, a one off event, or does she have a habit of regularly traveling with one in tow? Does she also have cold storage for that blood? And what DOES she do with all that sweet sweet red juice? Does she sell it to a blood bank at a 500% mark-up, or are we about to get a horror spin-off where we find out shopkeep is really a vampire building her own undead Capella dancer army?
So many questions!
Hey now, Charon is busy saving up for a bridge!
Do you even realize how expensive those things are??
Definitely the shopkeeper from "one step from eden". When you're at her place, you can damage her a few times, do it too much and damn, all your progress will plunder to the bottom faster than any other boss in the game. Unfortunately, I learned that the hard way.
Chocobo's Dungeon: Within the dungeon, Death itself is a shopkeeper. Attacking death repeatedly; or by bypassing the entry door, Death goes on a rampage, summoning several other copies of itself and pursuing Chocobo until the player's demise or they escape to the next floor. As a bonus, once Death is in pursuit, you can't even pop a teleport tag in order to warp out of the dungeon.

Good times.

The grandaddy of hard shopkeepers (and I guess where this trope originated) is in the Rogue/Nethack type of games.
Later perpetuated in gamin by the ultima/Questron type of games where having a tough shopkeeper was a must.
Yeah, 4 of the games on this list are Roguelikes drawing direct inspiration from those games. None of them let you train your pet to steal for you consequence free, though, at least as far as I know.
@@kalzekdor Well, you could train your pet to steal in nethack but I dont remember if it was without consequences.

I'm playing it right now, got it after Luke's stream! I don't think it's nearly as hard as Luke suggested - just pay attention... to the floor, and the walls, and the roof, and the monsters, and the ghosts, and the timer, and the allies, and your own damn weapons...
@@GriffinWolf That's a big part of a the difficulty. There's so much to keep in mind, and literally everything can kill you, including your own sense of ego and incompetence, in this game.
@@Manavine I know, I was being facetious :) Might not come across too well in text, sorry!
I feel like the shopkeep from One Step From Eden deserves a shout-out. Not only does she produce a truely nightmarish attack pattern but if and when you lose to here. She drops an atm on your head to finish you off.
Man that shopkeeper is scary....
Great video as always! I just feel like pointing out that in the Crypt of the Necrodancer, following the death of the shopkeeper, he won't appear in the next levels, and so you can no longer buy from him on the remainder of the run (I know you said you can't listen to his beautiful voice but it just didn't seem fully transparent). Moreover, you might encounter him as a ghost attacking you on the following levels.
"In Link's awakening everything takes place in the dreams of a giant fish"

The Keckleon from Pokemon Mystery Dungeon are horrifying, they deal insane amounts of damage from a distance, multiply like rabbits and chase you relentlessly until you escape the current floor.
Then, DON'T, and I repeat, DON'T steal from the Kecleon Bros. Shop! It's basically like signing your own death warrant right then and there! Also, them multiplying like rabbits, while it is horrifying, along with the whole chasing you relentlessly until you escape the current floor, which sounds like something out of a Pokémon themed horror movie, if you just don't steal from them in the first place, then you can avoid the entire problem! But I do still agree, while stealing from them does turn Pokémon Mystery Dungeon into a horror themed game, with appropriately scary themed music, it is actually possible to beat the Kecleon, and even recruit the shopkeeper. But it's something I've never been able to do, because the only way to even get them to join you is by somehow beating them by either stealing from them and then having to either survive the horrifying rush of Kecleon trying to murder you and your partner Pokémon, and/or the rest of your team, and Kecleon are pretty much the STRONGEST Pokémon in the game, with an 00.1% recruitment rate, which according to another comment, Is even lower than the Legendary Pokémon themselves. And I don't even like Kecleon. But just don't steal from them, and you'll be alright, dude. But Kecleon is most definitely the most horrifying Pokémon in the Mystery Dungeon series. Geez, why wasn't Kecleon a Legendary, if it's recruitment rate was so low, and it's speed Stat was maxed out. Geez, they REALLY wanted to punish Pokémon for stealing, didn't they? Went a bit overboard, I'd say... a simple slap on the wrist would've been enough, not trying to murder us because we may have "accidentally"(maybe, maybe not), stole something. Wasn't us taking said item without paying punishment enough? You didn't have to play scary music, and send your brothers and sisters after me and my Pokémon team; just for taking the ONE item! Holy Crap! And this is why I never steal from any shopkeepers in any games. Because I've seen the horrific experiences me and my fellow Pokémon have had with stealing from the Kecleon shop, and the terrifying music that plays. But if you do steal, make sure you use an Escape Orb or whichever item and get out of there, if you have to steal something, I mean.
Pokemon mystery dungeon. Kecleon will multiply and kill you with easy in the early game and late game. It is an easy way to to find a shiny kecleon though.
Kiwi the bird shop keep from twilight princes is also formidable, he’ll stop attacking you once you pay. Though you will be relentlessly pecked all the way up to the tip/payment box

Kecleon from the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon series was the first thing on my mind when i read the title. Not including them in this list is almost as criminal as stealing from them to begin with!
FINALLY the return of the talking-through-the-spoilers-scroll bit!! I’ve been waiting forever
What about the shop keepers in Dungeons of Dredmor? They summon literally demons should you steal from them.
The shopkeeper in Link's Awakening is clearly abusing his monopoly by charging outrageous prices for the Bow and Arrow, rather than industry standard.
So who's the REAL thief, hmmmmm?
He's the only shop on an island in a dream... he IS the industry standard.
@@3TeamsMedia Found his lawyer.
Kecleon Bros, from Mystery Dungeon. In hindsight I should have expected someone who regularly travels dungeons alone with valuable items to be able to protect them.
The Keckleon shop in the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon series is the most terrifying shop I have ever seen. Stealing from their dungeon shop is horrifying, trying to RECRUIT Keckleon is even worse.
To be fair, I can't fault the barkeep in BioShock Infinite since you're supposed to be helping them at that point. He's not the only one who gets pissed if you steal or go where you shouldn't. There's a shopkeeper up in the Soldier's Field (I think) area and if you steal there you start that fight early. Same with the area in Shantytown (that bit of Finkton y'all were in) near the bar. If you walk past the guys standing around a table to get the infusion (I think it's an infusion there), they also get mad and start shooting. If you do that before the bar area, then that makes them hostile before you even get there. Considering that there's friendly fire when helping the Vox, I usually end up attacked no matter what I have or haven't done. I make heavy use of the Murder of Crows vigor, but as a result, the still-flying crows on return from Shantytown will attack the Vox and then the game reprimands me for attacking my allies. 1) they weren't there when I used that vigor the first time on the Columbia security forces. 2) they walked into said flying crows on their own. 3) you could make the crows dissipate when I leave the area. 4) maybe don't let my attacks harm my allies then. Oh, and 5) those crows shouldn't even be there still since I went through a tear in a different Columbia; or was it just the machinery disappearing that changed? Pretty sure it's a different Columbia entirely given what Elizabeth says about it Given that there are absolutely no consequences for killing in the game and by the end of the game everyone and their mother is trying to kill me, I don't feel too bad when fights kick off early because I needed ammo, salts, health, and/or money.
I finished my 5th (I think) run of Infinite not long ago, and this vid makes me want to start a 6th run. I'm glad y'all used the music from when Elizabeth shows Booker the doors and all. It's my favorite bit of music from the game.
Edit: I wouldn't say I wouldn't want to steal from the Infinite shopkeepers because they get violent. I mean, they do, but they cause nowhere near the trouble most of the rest on this list do. Easy enough to shoot everyone coming at you and they don't respawn.
I dunno Andy…Ronald McDonald has got some reach. I reckon that clown can spar 😅
That took me a good 10 seconds to place the Galaxy Quest reference. Well done!
This was fun, and makes me wish force related video; shopkeepers who reward your patronage with an optional boss fight that might be harder than the actual boss. I remember a playthrough of Castlevania 64 where I bought enough stuff from Renon, the demon merchant, that I had to fight him right before Dracula. Stuff like that, and the Red Jewel Dealer in Illusion of Gaia, who turns into Shield Arm after you've traded for all hus stuff, are both fun and terrible. Not sure if Rodin from Bayonetta, or Abyssion from several Talea games count, but fun.
Gonna beat a dead Rescue Team and say Kecleon. Suprised they weren't the first choice
I still love these videos, but losing the thumbnail style feels like losing an old friend
Getting strong enough to beat Charon is Incredibly satisfying.
First time I ever fought Charon I was utterly blown away.
Took like 3 or 4 uses of Death Defiance and still only got him to half health.
I still have nightmare of that time as a kid when I forgot to pay Kecleon in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, and he summoned his entire species to end my life.
I discovered the one of Enter The Gungeon while playing with a friend. The absolute dolt thought It'd be funny to try a new gun on the shoopkeep, leading to my death trying to survive the bullet hell
Bud Goals
XD
Great list as always aside from Charon. Sure he gets pissed off and fights you in a hard encounter but you do get gold and that discount card, so most often than not, you'd always WANT to steal from him given the chance.
To those that don't know, the guy that voiced the shopkeeper in Crypt of the Necrodancer has a RUclips channel where you can hear his singing all day long
This would be a perfect list for something I learned about recently, which is Sylvan from FTL Multiverse. Will absolutely destroy your ship if you’re not prepared
One step from Eden you can fight the shopkeeper and by wining unlock her as a playable character
Yay Charon! Charon is the best, he’s very friendly and talkative. You should have a chat with him, his wears are awesome, and he’s overall a good guy.
I’m old. I recall NetHack and those swarms of Keystone Kops. *shivers in memory*
Guys that thumbnail don’t look right
The angry Spelunky shopkeeper screenshot says it all.
How about the Shopkeep from One Step From Eden, utterly devastating.
Please tell me that “what a savings” from Andy was a Galaxy Quest reference 😂😂
The lack of Kecleon from Pokémon Mystery Dungeon on this list is offensive. If you try to steal from him, or even don’t have enough to purchase what you want, he basically one shots you. You can recruit him as a partner, but you have to defeat him first, and he seems to have near infinite health.
the trick is to buy stuff by talking with him WITHOUT leaving the shop area, therefore you don't steal and can just put the items back on the ground
How about Anna from Fire Emblem? Like she said its not only prices she can cut.
Fun fact: The shopkeeper's actual canon name in Crypt of the Necrodancer is Freddy Merchantry. This game, man...
Thank you for including Hades!
Man, I love the Emile fight.
Mostly because the ending to the quest chain had me in tears after playing the original Nier and I remember Emile’s sacrifice.
Yeah, you're supposed to feel like a jerk at that fight
How could you leave out the shopkeeper from One Step from Eden? Hit her once and you are in for the hardest challenge the game has to offer
Nobody ever talks about the shopkeepers in Skyrim...where they throw some fire or electricity at you if they just so happen to spot you taking something without talking to them to buy...
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon (any version) Kecleon chases after you if you steal from them in the dungeon and they're almost always a OHKO. And if they do knock you out you lose ALL of your inventory.
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon’s dungeon shopkeepers. I once put one item down on their shop and then picked it back up after getting rid of something else… I don’t think I made it to the exit.
They are relentless and will chase you through levels iirc. So you better have an escape rope or a death wish.
Thankfully they only chase you on the floor you're currently on. Pure seeds are a god send for try to steal from them
Just clicking on this video now but I’m going to hope Kecleon from all the Mystery Dungeons games is on this list.
Edit: Watched it now and am very surprised they weren’t mentioned
Don't worry, with the amount of people commenting about it, it will most likely get put in the commenter's edition.
Don't forget One Step From Eden's shopkeeper. No way to steal from her, but she'll end you real quick if you damage her.
I'm so glad that the shopkeeper from Link's Awakening was not only on this list, but the first mentioned.
