Yep, and it is fantastic. As the game takes place several years after Red & Blue you get to explore all of Kanto and see what has changed. The final final boss is someone you chase down afterwards.
Can you even call the Kanto section a free, second game? Aside from the fact you have to do the quest to move Snorlax's fat ass, it’s just a quick defeat of the 8 gym leaders and you’re off to Mt. Silver.
When I was a kid The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time felt like this. Because as a kid you have to go through those 3 "dungeons" to collect the 3 spiritual stones. Which takes forever. And you think you're done but then you become an adult and realize you were just getting started.
I had this with Wind Waker. I got stuck in jail as a kid so once I got to the tower of the Gods, I was ready to finish Ganon but noooo there was much more game to be had
Fable III: Your mission is to overthrow your brother and become the King of Albion. Upon fighting your way through the castle, your brother just hands you the crown and tells you "Evil incarnate is en route to eat everyone in 1 year. You bloody deal with it." You then have to spend the rest of the game preparing for the upcoming invasion.
Darklord Kaiser fable in a nutshell. All three games got you thinking a certain point was the end and then all of a sudden you got thrown a curve ball like you’ve never seen
@@IamaPERSON halfway through the game my ass, it was pretty much the epilogue.unless you had a few extra quests to do on the side it pretty much funneled you right into the final boss fight
Ah I can see it now, little Ekim playing over there with Nelle and Ekul while Enaj and Ydna hatch a plan to steal from the cookie jar on the top shelf.
Not gonna lie, I died so many times during the tutorial of Nier: Automata that I switched it to easy mode so I wouldn't keep dying at the last possible moment, only to have to restart the tutorial for the eighth time.
What about Okami? You rock up (with your annoying side kick), and everyone keeps telling you about the big bad you need to defeat and something about a white wolf..... Many hours later, you defeat big bad and explain the legend of the white wolf ... And then discover you are less than a third of the way through the game.....
Yeahhh, I seriously thought I was reaching the end - there's such a climactic showdown with that big bad I was like "ooh this could be it!" In retrospect however it didn't really make sense considering how I had less than half the powers in the game and only 16 hours of playtime.
I thought the same thing when I had gone all the way east on the map, when all of a sudden there’s a whole new island to the west/north(I forget which.)
The first time I played I got to that part and *restarted the entire game* because I was convinced I'd hit a bug or something and somehow missed all the bits in between the first area and the final dungeon.
Also have to add Zelda: Ocarina of Time to this. I remember getting all 3 stones as kid Link when I was 11 years old and that it took so long to get them all, just to find out you just get old and still have an incredible long way to go. As a kid I actually thought I was almost done at that point. I knew there was a bit more to it since we still had unexplored areas, but not that I basically just finished the start of the game.
And the game keeps on throwing so many new foes and obstacles after that that by the time you’re back to fighting Hades and the Underworld Army that you’ve almost forgotten that you’re supposed to defeat him!
Kid Icarus: Uprising. You get to the credits, celebrating your defeat over Medusa, and then Hades comes in and literally rips the credits off the screen! Turns out, you're not even halfway through the game. Thanks again, Sakurai
And with all the twists and turns thrown at you afterwards, by the time we’re back to fighting the Underworld Army, I actually forgot that I was supposed to fight Hades this whole time! At one point, he even acts as a sort-of ally, and then temporarily disappears from the story entirely for a while before suddenly appearing out of nowhere to remind you that, oh yeah, he’s still the main villain. Sakurai just loves moving the goalposts in this game.
Bioshock and Portal 2 spoilers below I was almost shocked, but while doing a beginning puzzle (maybe mid-way to the twist) I was like “Man! You’re a real cool friend Wheatly! I... You’re going to betray me aren’t you?” So when he did I was just like “Yup.” Bioshock’s twist ruined me from trusting strangely helpful companions.
The thing with Portal 2 was it was fabulous when it turned out the game wasn’t over. I’m trying to think where there were other wonderful moments like that.
I'd add in Final Fantasy 6. The story builds up to an epic clash on a floating island, with a full cast of amazing characters who have been on incredible journeys. And then the world blows up. You just made it to the half way point!
I was shocked both by the fact this was not int he video, and by how far down int he comments it was before I found someone mentioning it. Sad to be so old, I guess?
All the way back where the characters wave to the camera and laugh as they've won, I'd say, before the island even takes off. That was a huge twist for me. It felt like the end of FFIV, so I really thought we were done. Maybe I should'a paid more attention to the pack-in-map, eh?
This is how I felt when I first played Okami. You drive away the darkness, infiltrate the Moon Cave, and have an epic boss battle with Orochi...and only after that do you learn there is a greater evil on the horizon, and how you have to go to new, larger areas of Nippon. Oh, and you also go back in time at one point and fight Orochi AGAIN, but when he was at his peak! Of course, that sounds tedious, but I loved the game so much that when I learned it wasn't over I was RELIEVED!
I think they could have just gone with "7 times games were either old, Japanese, or both". Actually that could probably go for most of the lists on RUclips come to think of it...
I made that mistake too I was like "Man this is a short game I just have to close the breach? " and then Corypheus shows up and I make it to Skyhold then I realized how much more game I have to do
I'll add The Witcher 3. I can't be the only one who thought that the battle at Kaer Morhen was the end. The game was already 1,5 regular rpg's long at that point.
The Witcher 3 does that bait and switch 3 times "Have to find Yennefer" ---> "Have to locate and protect Ciri" ----> "Oh what's that? Now I have to find a way to fight the wraiths of the Wild Hunt"
Zelda: Link to the Past does it twice. You’ve got the pendants and the Master Sword and you’re about to fight Agahnim, but then Agahnim seemingly kills Zelda, you fight him and then he draws you into the Dark World with 8 more dungeons before the final fight with Agahnim. Once you defeat Agahnim, he reveals himself to be Ganon at the last moment and teleports to that Pyramid in the center of the Dark World, which you have to get there yourself and finally fight Ganon to end the game for real.
Keegan Lafferty I really think that's how the game intended it to be taken, honestly. I never got the vibe that Agahnim is Ganon in disguise, but rather that Ganon had actually physically possessed Agahnim toward the end of the game, like a demon possession. So when you defeat (read: kill) Agahnim, Ganon's possessing spirit rises from Agahnim's body, becomes corporeal again, and then turns into a weird bat creature, and flies off to the Golden Pyramid so you can follow to do battle.
What about Okami? You defeat the supposed big bad, save the day, conclude the prophecy, everyone's happy, but it turns out you're only, like, 1/3 through the game and that's was just the first of many bosses.
Mario walks to the holding area of the castle, sees a super buff Toad bench pressing while sipping a protein shake through straw. Toad: Thank you Mario! But our princess is in another castle! (Toad still has the high pitch scratchy voice, because of steroids)
When you’re playing Mario Kart and think you’re on the final lap, but once you cross the finish line and out down your controller everyone just drives right past you.
Chrono Trigger. You go through the very "final dungeony" Undersea Palace to fight Lavos only for things to go the other way around and have Chrono die.
@@Chloe_Zana Perhaps with a LOT of level grinding and buying equipment you can't normally get ahold of before that point, IIRC. I never tried it, but I imagine it should theoretically be possible. Just need a Lv99 Ayla and keep her alive because she can one-shot Lavos's last form.
um maybe I am wrong, but Portal 2? You defeat Glados, the obvious main big bad, only to find your newest bestest friend take her place as the main bad guy.
02:15 "You're supposed to be a vampire lord, Dracula, not a real estate mogul." Sounds like someone didn't read the source material. 😀 In the novel, he was both. Nice save, though, pointing out that "200.6 percent completion" is bonkers. Also liked this gem: "Should have called it CastleSvania." Good video as always.
Y’know, I get the 200% thing as a way to conceal the second castle, and I could even understand having a little more to either hide some secret or to make it clear when you’ve fully explored both castles before fighting Dracula (a number of games have final completions of 101% or something), but why 200.6%? Why something so completely random? Seriously, why have an additional 0.6% to the final total? Why not make it a full percentage point? It makes it seem less complete to have a decimal at the end.
Yup, the whole 'exciting incident' that begins Bram Stoker's Dracula is the notorious count hiring a solicitor so he could get into the real estate business.
In undertale, the same thing happens. When you defeat asgore with peace, you think It's finnaly done. But then fricken' flowey comes again, and ruins your pacifist run.
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time! Once you get all the stuff at the start that you assume is leading to the endgame, you quickly discover you've pretty much only played the first 10% of the game or so. Blew my mind as a kid!
Yeah Far Cry 3 comes to mind for this list. You kill one of the most interesting and dynamic antagonist in recent games in a cut scene then there's half of a game to still go through.
I remember there was stuff that happened after Vaas is killed but I honestly can't recall much of it. I can't even remember the name of the dude Vaas worked for. I only remember the ending where you can choose to betray your friends for some sex with a homicidal nutcase(and it ends just as badly as you'd imagine).
@@cameronrhyne7826 I remember that one, it was Hoyt and it was such a huge mistake. Besides killing Vaas in a pretty lame way with a QTE, they didn't even make Hoyt interesting. After Vaas you were just questing while thinking 'who even is this guy who I'm fighting now?'. The only mission I remember that was against Hoyt was 'Kick the Hornet's Nest', which is the mission where you burn down weed plants with a flamethrower. The rest was pretty forgettable. It's probably for the best that everything after Vaas is easily forgotten, though.
Bloodborne's secret boss. You think you are done with the game with the great final boss? Nope. Here's a special other boss for eating three thirds of an umbilical cord. Yes really
I'll throw another one on the pile: Okami. You get this whole climactic buildup to the fight Orochi, tying together all the plot threads up to that point. Then you win and... Wait, there's a bigger bad? What do you mean that was only a third of the game?! Sweet!
Resident Evil pulls this stuff all the time. They did it in Code Veronica too. You think all is well... you've just pushed that tyrant out of the plane and you think all is well... then your autopilot takes you to the sodding Antarctica base.
How in the world did you forget Nier Automata? You finish a whole 20-30 hour story and find out there's TWO MORE? I loved it, and am shocked its not on here.
kid icarus still takes the cake imo everything up to the point where you beat medusa points at that being the final boss fight, and the credits start rolling. after the first few credits have rolled, hades claws open the screen and reveals that he was the actual baddie of the game. the rest of the game is 16 more chapters, which is, compared to the 9 you already did, nearly twice as long (time wise might be more than that)
I have a few that you missed: Dishonored, after you take down the Lord Regent; Fallout 3, after you find your Dad; Fallout: New Vegas, after completing your hunt for Benny.
I remember paying off my loan just for Nook (curse him) to offer to let me expand... which of course just led to a long, long, series of fishing, bug collecting, fossil digging, fetch questing, and everyone's favorites: shaking trees and banging on rocks with a shovel!
There's also tales of symponia. You get to the tower that's been your quest for the whole game and reach the top where you're supposed to do the ritual of regeneration to save the world. Shockers! A hopeless boss fight awaits you, everything goes crazy and now there's a whole other world to explore with a lot more problems on your plate!
"Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts" need to be on this list, you finish the Big Bad at the end only to find out that you have to play THE ENTIRE GAME AGAIN.... For most parts in your underpants.
Yep, a nod to the original Ghosts and Goblins on NES where, when you beat the game the first time you're told everything you just did was an illusion, and now you have to beat and even harder version of the game, AND kill the extra tough last boss with a very specific weapon (which is the worst weapon in the entire game, btw) in order to actually complete it.
This video reminds me of the first time I watched an outsidexbox video, got to the end and was very pleased with myself. Then I discovered that was not the end, there was a lot more content to view. Unlike some of these games, I was very pleased there was a lot more content to dig into, currently I'm about halfway to Australia.😀 Gotta keep on digging through the videos!
Okami should be on this list. SPOILER: You beat the big baddie who was introduced at the start. But then you're only 1/3rd of the way through the game!
Ahh yes - the old "This castle is actually just an illusion - the real castle is exactly the same but different, and just over there." I seem to remember Ghosts and Goblins pulling the same trick.
I'll always remember Dragon Quest 8. Took long enough to get to Dhoulmagus and it really felt like an end boss... And then I had to go after my former team member, a dog and finally the least impressive one of them all, the actual final boss.
@@alicemadness2959 You very much have a point there, but dint forget the part where AFTER you fight asriel, and he uses his most powerful attack, SUDDENLY, second form. Or sans. That fight too.
What about Ghost & Goblins on the NES? Finishing the game the first time literally forces you to start over from the beginning, doing it all over again.
Actually there are 4 scenarios in RE2. It's Leon A, then followed with Clarie B, and Claire A, then followed with Leon B. In Leon B, it's him who fought the William final form in the train.
It's been a while, and I played when I was really young, but I remember playing Driver: Parallel Lines for what seemed like the length of a full game in the 70s and never even remotely expected that I was only halfway done the game.
For me, it was Chrono Trigger's Magus fight. I grew up with the C-64 and NES. So playing an SNES RPG that took (What I thought) a couple hours to complete meant nothing out of the ordinary. Imagine my surprise when Magus gets sucked into that portal, and discovering the game was just getting warmed up!
He said in a livestream they won't do it every time. Which is good. It'd probably start to feel repetitive quite fast. Not that I wouldn't love it anyway.
200% completion makes perfect sense. The first hundred percent is for completing the first castle, the second hundred percent is for completing the second. ...No idea about the last 0.6%, though. Rounding error?
Time I thought I was done but I was just getting started: Star Wars Force Unleashed Time I thought I was just getting started but I was done: Star Wars Force Unleashed II
I remember when I was a teenager playing RE3 and the part with the helicopter got blown away I legitimately was in shock lol. I recall it being a tad scary in general though with that game, so it was a combination of "oh god damnit, he isn't going away!" and "ahh man, I can't win!" hahaha There is no way RE2 could have been an surprise that Birkin was back. If you grew up with it like our generation (I was 14 at the time personally), then you definitely knew that in the remake things weren't going to be much different lol.. I think the most surprising thing about the Remake is how they made Tyrant T-103 ("Mr.X") the main antagonist. The one thing they REALLY fucked up, of all things, is that they made the entire 2 scenario thing almost pointless. Well not almost, they did make it pointless. I have no idea why they didn't make it was constant as opposed to this new one not lining up correctly. It's actually really annoying that they fucked up on the scenario A connecting to scenario B directly, including the items being gone if you picked them up prior. To basically make it a moot point...it's disappointing to say the least.
Like In Star Wars: the force unleashed. The whole game ends after a brisk walk down the road with Darth Vader. After that I think there was some other people but since none of them are Darth Vader.. who cares.
Crash Bandicoot 1-3 do this. It's not enough to just collect the crystals and beat the bosses, but you have to then collect all of the gems and (in Crash 3's case) the relics too. And the relics need to be at least gold for 105% completion in Crash 3
I'd imagine that lots of people thought they were done with Subnautica when the Sunbeam arrived to take them away, only to find out that exploration of the planet is mandatory, as your only escape route just got shot down.
How about in Bioshock when you finally get to Andrew Ryan and he forces you to kill him? After which you discover that the guy who was being your helpful guide by way of radio is actually the real villain? Another one would be Far Cry 3 when you finally take out Vaas, but it turns out he was a flunky for another guy; thus leading you to another island to explore.
@@roguishpaladin Well considering that up to the point you stab(?) Vaas, you were pretty sure taking him out would be the end of the game. Since it wasn't, even if there was not all that much of the game left to go, I say it still counts.
Jade Empire!!! I finally rescued my master from the evil behind everything, and I’m not done yet (trying my best to avoid spoilers for the fourteen year old game).
Any game with "secret" "last" "true" boss. Especially Final Fantasy: Oh, I finally beat Kuja, now to relax and watch looong cinemat... Whaaaa...? Who the hell is Necron?
Necron was a stupid inclusion I thought. Cool boss but his appearance makes no sense even by ff standards. Ozma is the real asshole he can instantly one shot your whole party if I remember correctly right off the jump.
Batman: Arkham City. You get one chance to do the Mad Hatter side quest (if you continue with the story, you miss it), by injecting a ‘cure’ from ‘Alfred’. Later, when you finally finish every side quest and the main quest, you finish the game with less than 50%. For 100% you have to complete New Game +, along with lots of post-game Riddler content.
Excuse me, but are we not going to talk about Dragon's Dogma? Defeating the dragon that nicked your heart was apparently not everything the game had in store for you.
@@numaisreginald3671 it's different for every player, I suppose. story-wise, yes it doesn't offer much, but if you're after getting quest upon quest, and exploring Bitterblack Isle more if you have Dark Arisen, the game has a lot more to offer.
@King Ty Yeah. It’s a shame that Sakurai has said that he has no interest in making a sequel. I’d have loved to see more of the crazy stuff he’d come up with.
What about kid icarus uprising?At the end of the credits, after beating medusa, who you thought was the main antagonist, hades literally tears through the credits screen and starts wreaking havoc.
And then that fight gets interrupted three time for you to fight some other menace. Seriously, Sakurai loves moving the goalposts in that game. Oh! You think you’re fighting the Underworld Army some more to get to Hades? Psych! Viridi and her Forces of Nature decide to interfere with their own plan to destroy humanity! Getting ready to stop her so you can focus back on Hades? Nope! Now you must team up with Hades, Viridi, and newcomer Pyrrhon to defeat the invading Auron. (Also, when you think you’re about to finish off the Auron, Pyrrhon betrays you, and now you have to make your way back through to fight him.) Think that you’re going back to fight Hades or Viridi, or maybe have a break? Nope! Turns out that earlier you freed some ancient evil trapped by Viridi that possesses Palutena, leaving Pit’s soul trapped in a ring while his body-on Palutena’s orders-starts to attack mankind, so now Magnus (an earlier ally) has to help you get your body back and then Viridi and your “evil” twin Dark Pit help you to free Palutena. You’d think that’d be good, right? Nope! The Chaos Kin tries to take Dark Pit down with it, so Pit ends up seriously injured and has to be taken to a magical fountain by Dark Pit to be rejuvenated, at which point Hades (who had been pretty much absent through most of the Chaos Kin debacle) reminds you that, oh yeah, you have to take care of him, too. So Pit gets revived, you go to fight Hades with the Three Sacred Treasures, but then Hades decides to destroy them in one fell swoop, then eat you. So you’re in his body and have to escape. You encounter and destroy his heart before escaping, which you’d think would kill him, but nope! He’s still fine. So now you have to get a new Great Sacred Treasure to fight Hades, which includes a bit of a boss rush against some old foes and the new weapon itself. Only then do you _finally_ get to fight and defeat Hades. And of course, if you wait long enough at the end credits, Hades’ disembodied voice comes and threatens to delete your save file (he doesn’t, thankfully).
@@nerosoul2506 Yeah, it’s a neat Easter Egg that is incredibly easy to miss. After all, you do have to wait quite a long time after the end of the credits to hear it.
Jet Force Gemini, poor Lupus had a boss fight against the main Villain Mizar only for him to escape to a giant asteroid afterwards. That’s when you find out you are only halfway through the game and have to return to all be planets you just played through
How did you not mention Ghosts 'n' Goblins on NES?! You get to the final boss, kill him, then literally have to start over AT THE BEGINNING AND DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN! For a game that's already rage inducing, this is equivalent to doing a 50 page book report, having the teacher shred it in front of you, and telling you to do it again.
Shadow the Hedgehog is also an example of this. You have to play through the starting level about 6 times and get a new ending each time to finally get the final boss/stage/ending.
You can also mention the Sunbeam from Subnautica, this ship was supposed to come and save you (you even a had a timer that counted time before it's arrival), but was unfortunately shoot down by an alien defense system.
What about Frank West in the original Dead Rising? 72 hours is constantly harped on, and then you realize not only is the chopper not coming, but you're infected! Savage!
No mention of Dishonored? You tear down the Regent, rescue Emily, and finally make it home, only to immediately get betrayed and have to do another 3rd of the game
You apparently forgot the ASTRO boy game. After completing the all the levels, you have to do them all over again and find extra secrets and do hidden levels before gaining access to the last stage.
One of my favorite games Giants: Citizen Kabuto does it when you fight the title character Kabuto (playing as him as well, sort of) and kill him in one hit and credits start rolling only for them to stop and reverse and he gets up and is now a much harder fight as you have to fight him as a much weaker character.
yeah, with the whole "Joker getting shot but it was actually the cognition Joker in Sae's palace" thing, that was quite a surprise, plus the fact that the evil politician guy's palace was not the last one
Like the time in Life when I thought I was done with school but it turned out there was university on top of that. But it did lead to a well payed job so I can buy more videogames, so all is well that ends well, I guess.
Jade Empire. err... spoilers? I hope the extra white space works. You roll up, defeat the Emperor and get ready to be thanked by the nice, humble kung fu master you've devoted a lot of time to go rescue.... when he punches you in the stomach and murders you. Then you gotta claw your way back to the land of the living, defeat an army of golem murder machines and go punch him in the face in return.
Tales of Symphonia made you think you were almost done so many times, I lost count. They even brought in another overworld for one of them and that was still relatively early on.
A good few suggestions here, but no dishonored?? From the start of the game your one job is to take out the Lord Regent and his corrupt chums, but mere hours after doing that you learn that your allies forgot the bit about alliances where you don't immmediately backstab everyone install yourself as a tyrannical ruler just like the one you just overthrew. Now Corvo still has half a game to use his now finely honed assassin skills on a new set of backstabbing jerks.
When I thought I was done with any soulsbourne game, only to find out that there are either optional bosses I missed, alternate endings, DLC, optional DLC bosses, Alternate DLC endings and hidden weapons and items. Plus New Game +10
Just shapes and beats, there is achievements called, “its over”, “ok, maybe it wasn’t over”, “its over for real”, and finally “its over for real, really”. There are THREE fake endings
Pokémon Gold and Silver?
Beat the elite 4, you're done.
Wait, here's ALL OF KANTO
Wait really!?
I never played
So you bassically get 2 games in one?
Yep, and it is fantastic. As the game takes place several years after Red & Blue you get to explore all of Kanto and see what has changed. The final final boss is someone you chase down afterwards.
Red blue & yellow brah
Can you even call the Kanto section a free, second game? Aside from the fact you have to do the quest to move Snorlax's fat ass, it’s just a quick defeat of the 8 gym leaders and you’re off to Mt. Silver.
Yep
This is how to show youre not done.
When I was a kid The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time felt like this. Because as a kid you have to go through those 3 "dungeons" to collect the 3 spiritual stones. Which takes forever. And you think you're done but then you become an adult and realize you were just getting started.
It’s not just Ocarina of time. It’s almost every single Zelda game.

Many hours later, you defeat big bad and explain the legend of the white wolf ... And then discover you are less than a third of the way through the game.....
Yeahhh, I seriously thought I was reaching the end - there's such a climactic showdown with that big bad I was like "ooh this could be it!" In retrospect however it didn't really make sense considering how I had less than half the powers in the game and only 16 hours of playtime.
I was sure that would be on this list
I thought the same thing when I had gone all the way east on the map, when all of a sudden there’s a whole new island to the west/north(I forget which.)
The first time I played I got to that part and *restarted the entire game* because I was convinced I'd hit a bug or something and somehow missed all the bits in between the first area and the final dungeon.
Damn @tabbyclaw
Upside you got to REALLY appreciate the first bit? Sorry, probably not making you feel better...
Also have to add Zelda: Ocarina of Time to this. I remember getting all 3 stones as kid Link when I was 11 years old and that it took so long to get them all, just to find out you just get old and still have an incredible long way to go. As a kid I actually thought I was almost done at that point. I knew there was a bit more to it since we still had unexplored areas, but not that I basically just finished the start of the game.
Same happened to me with Chrono Trigger: you beat Magus and suddenly the game does the ultimate plot twist.
Not gonna mention Kid Icarus: Uprising where even the CREDITS roll before Hades appears...
Okay
Tornato crap I didnt see your comment and commented the same thing! Sorry🙏🏻
And the game keeps on throwing so many new foes and obstacles after that that by the time you’re back to fighting Hades and the Underworld Army that you’ve almost forgotten that you’re supposed to defeat him!
Kid Icarus: Uprising. You get to the credits, celebrating your defeat over Medusa, and then Hades comes in and literally rips the credits off the screen! Turns out, you're not even halfway through the game. Thanks again, Sakurai
It was a _hell_ of a goddamn entrance
And with all the twists and turns thrown at you afterwards, by the time we’re back to fighting the Underworld Army, I actually forgot that I was supposed to fight Hades this whole time! At one point, he even acts as a sort-of ally, and then temporarily disappears from the story entirely for a while before suddenly appearing out of nowhere to remind you that, oh yeah, he’s still the main villain. Sakurai just loves moving the goalposts in this game.
I definitely expected another, surprise entry after the outro started. I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed.
What a missed opportunity.
Seriously missed opportunity
Well it is a corporate channel ;)
I see what you did there. " Please don't be mad. I'm not mad. Whew... Thanks dad. I'm just dissapoinment. Heart breaks 😥
James Tanner, either that or have Andy start the outro at entry 6 and have Mike interrupt about the seventh entry.
I'm surprised Portal 2 wasn't on here. Wheatley totally blindsided me.
I came to the comments just to post this in the hope of a commenter edition
Yes! Portal as well with the promise of cake.
Bioshock and Portal 2 spoilers below
I was almost shocked, but while doing a beginning puzzle (maybe mid-way to the twist) I was like “Man! You’re a real cool friend Wheatly! I... You’re going to betray me aren’t you?” So when he did I was just like “Yup.”
Bioshock’s twist ruined me from trusting strangely helpful companions.
True
The thing with Portal 2 was it was fabulous when it turned out the game wasn’t over. I’m trying to think where there were other wonderful moments like that.
I'd add in Final Fantasy 6. The story builds up to an epic clash on a floating island, with a full cast of amazing characters who have been on incredible journeys. And then the world blows up. You just made it to the half way point!
I was shocked both by the fact this was not int he video, and by how far down int he comments it was before I found someone mentioning it. Sad to be so old, I guess?
Old game is old I guess, but this was the first one I thought of as well
All the way back where the characters wave to the camera and laugh as they've won, I'd say, before the island even takes off. That was a huge twist for me. It felt like the end of FFIV, so I really thought we were done.
Maybe I should'a paid more attention to the pack-in-map, eh?
Seriously, this whole video should be about Final Fantasy VI for how well it is donwe.
The best Final Fantasy in term of story...ever
This is how I felt when I first played Okami. You drive away the darkness, infiltrate the Moon Cave, and have an epic boss battle with Orochi...and only after that do you learn there is a greater evil on the horizon, and how you have to go to new, larger areas of Nippon. Oh, and you also go back in time at one point and fight Orochi AGAIN, but when he was at his peak!
Of course, that sounds tedious, but I loved the game so much that when I learned it wasn't over I was RELIEVED!
That should have been the title. “7 times your princess was in another castle (figuratively speaking).”
I think they could have just gone with "7 times games were either old, Japanese, or both". Actually that could probably go for most of the lists on RUclips come to think of it...
He was in 6-4, so it should have been 6 times.
Good one
would Kairi from Kingdom Hearts count for this, I mean Sora DID search for her through most of 1 and 2, though did end up finding her eventually

Dragon Age: Inquisition. "What do you mean, there's more to it than the Hinterlands and closing the Breach??"
I made that mistake too I was like "Man this is a short game I just have to close the breach? " and then Corypheus shows up and I make it to Skyhold then I realized how much more game I have to do
I was like well shieet. Then hours of grind and sweat and misery....
God dammit I’m not even at that part where you close the breach.

So Belmont was brainwashed by Dracula's Shaft... No second meanings there whatsoever :D

Ghost and Goblins
"Congratulation"
He really got shafted there, eh!
I'll add The Witcher 3. I can't be the only one who thought that the battle at Kaer Morhen was the end. The game was already 1,5 regular rpg's long at that point.
Yeah the buildup to that point makes me convince it was nearly the end
Yeah, me too. I put of Kaer Morhen for ages because I didn't want to end the game... lol
The Witcher 3 does that bait and switch 3 times
"Have to find Yennefer" ---> "Have to locate and protect Ciri" ----> "Oh what's that? Now I have to find a way to fight the wraiths of the Wild Hunt"
To me it was clear it's not the end
Zelda: Link to the Past does it twice. You’ve got the pendants and the Master Sword and you’re about to fight Agahnim, but then Agahnim seemingly kills Zelda, you fight him and then he draws you into the Dark World with 8 more dungeons before the final fight with Agahnim. Once you defeat Agahnim, he reveals himself to be Ganon at the last moment and teleports to that Pyramid in the center of the Dark World, which you have to get there yourself and finally fight Ganon to end the game for real.
Yugannhilda? (loz albw)
huh, in the manga Agahnim and Ganon were separate beings, Agahnim was being controlled by Ganon
Keegan Lafferty I really think that's how the game intended it to be taken, honestly. I never got the vibe that Agahnim is Ganon in disguise, but rather that Ganon had actually physically possessed Agahnim toward the end of the game, like a demon possession. So when you defeat (read: kill) Agahnim, Ganon's possessing spirit rises from Agahnim's body, becomes corporeal again, and then turns into a weird bat creature, and flies off to the Golden Pyramid so you can follow to do battle.
@@metalboy5150 ah, that makes more sense
You thought the game was over that fast?! Even the first 2 had like 7 (8? I forget) dungeon/castles
What about Okami? You defeat the supposed big bad, save the day, conclude the prophecy, everyone's happy, but it turns out you're only, like, 1/3 through the game and that's was just the first of many bosses.

Chrono Trigger. You go through the very "final dungeony" Undersea Palace to fight Lavos only for things to go the other way around and have Chrono die.
Chrono Trigger. 100%
Well, technically you can win that fight, but I don't know if it's possible before New Game+.
@@Chloe_Zana Perhaps with a LOT of level grinding and buying equipment you can't normally get ahold of before that point, IIRC. I never tried it, but I imagine it should theoretically be possible. Just need a Lv99 Ayla and keep her alive because she can one-shot Lavos's last form.
I swear Chrono Trigger should be on almost every list they make here.
@@Chloe_Zana There is an ending for winnning that

um maybe I am wrong, but Portal 2? You defeat Glados, the obvious main big bad, only to find your newest bestest friend take her place as the main bad guy.
02:15
"You're supposed to be a vampire lord, Dracula, not a real estate mogul."
Sounds like someone didn't read the source material. 😀 In the novel, he was both.
Nice save, though, pointing out that "200.6 percent completion" is bonkers. Also liked this gem: "Should have called it CastleSvania."
Good video as always.
Y’know, I get the 200% thing as a way to conceal the second castle, and I could even understand having a little more to either hide some secret or to make it clear when you’ve fully explored both castles before fighting Dracula (a number of games have final completions of 101% or something), but why 200.6%? Why something so completely random? Seriously, why have an additional 0.6% to the final total? Why not make it a full percentage point? It makes it seem less complete to have a decimal at the end.
How was he both? I remember Dracula was Mathias Cronqvist the templar knight before becoming a vampire and claiming Bernhardt Castle
Yup, the whole 'exciting incident' that begins Bram Stoker's Dracula is the notorious count hiring a solicitor so he could get into the real estate business.
In undertale, the same thing happens. When you defeat asgore with peace, you think It's finnaly done. But then fricken' flowey comes again, and ruins your pacifist run.
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time! Once you get all the stuff at the start that you assume is leading to the endgame, you quickly discover you've pretty much only played the first 10% of the game or so. Blew my mind as a kid!
That's a good one! Blew my mind too!
The trailer showing him as an adult was a bit of a clue
@@paulnixon1092 most people wouldn't of seen the trailer unless they happen to catch it on tv
Yeah Far Cry 3 comes to mind for this list. You kill one of the most interesting and dynamic antagonist in recent games in a cut scene then there's half of a game to still go through.
I remember there was stuff that happened after Vaas is killed but I honestly can't recall much of it. I can't even remember the name of the dude Vaas worked for. I only remember the ending where you can choose to betray your friends for some sex with a homicidal nutcase(and it ends just as badly as you'd imagine).
@@cameronrhyne7826 I remember that one, it was Hoyt and it was such a huge mistake. Besides killing Vaas in a pretty lame way with a QTE, they didn't even make Hoyt interesting. After Vaas you were just questing while thinking 'who even is this guy who I'm fighting now?'. The only mission I remember that was against Hoyt was 'Kick the Hornet's Nest', which is the mission where you burn down weed plants with a flamethrower. The rest was pretty forgettable.
It's probably for the best that everything after Vaas is easily forgotten, though.
Bloodborne's secret boss. You think you are done with the game with the great final boss? Nope. Here's a special other boss for eating three thirds of an umbilical cord. Yes really
Seriously ,who knows how many carbs those things have
pretty sure 3 thirds of an umbilical cord is just 1 umbilical cord mate.
Thats the point ghost of razgriz
Or even four thirds of a cord. Thanks Fromsoft
From software is at the wheel, nothing surprises me from them
I'll throw another one on the pile: Okami. You get this whole climactic buildup to the fight Orochi, tying together all the plot threads up to that point. Then you win and... Wait, there's a bigger bad? What do you mean that was only a third of the game?! Sweet!
Okami definitely should be on here. That was exactly me when I played it.

Red Dead Redemption 2. The game ended on a bittersweet note (with the good ending) but Rockstar decided to add an extra 10 hour epilogue.

kid icarus still takes the cake imo
everything up to the point where you beat medusa points at that being the final boss fight, and the credits start rolling. after the first few credits have rolled, hades claws open the screen and reveals that he was the actual baddie of the game. the rest of the game is 16 more chapters, which is, compared to the 9 you already did, nearly twice as long (time wise might be more than that)
I have a few that you missed:
Dishonored, after you take down the Lord Regent;
Fallout 3, after you find your Dad;
Fallout: New Vegas, after completing your hunt for Benny.
Yeah but the truth is those games were rigged from the start.
So... bethesda games
If you're going to do a Fallout game, the original Fallout after you get the water chip would be a better example.

Yep, a nod to the original Ghosts and Goblins on NES where, when you beat the game the first time you're told everything you just did was an illusion, and now you have to beat and even harder version of the game, AND kill the extra tough last boss with a very specific weapon (which is the worst weapon in the entire game, btw) in order to actually complete it.

200% completion makes perfect sense. The first hundred percent is for completing the first castle, the second hundred percent is for completing the second.
...No idea about the last 0.6%, though. Rounding error?

There is no way RE2 could have been an surprise that Birkin was back. If you grew up with it like our generation (I was 14 at the time personally), then you definitely knew that in the remake things weren't going to be much different lol.. I think the most surprising thing about the Remake is how they made Tyrant T-103 ("Mr.X") the main antagonist. The one thing they REALLY fucked up, of all things, is that they made the entire 2 scenario thing almost pointless. Well not almost, they did make it pointless. I have no idea why they didn't make it was constant as opposed to this new one not lining up correctly. It's actually really annoying that they fucked up on the scenario A connecting to scenario B directly, including the items being gone if you picked them up prior. To basically make it a moot point...it's disappointing to say the least.

And then that fight gets interrupted three time for you to fight some other menace. Seriously, Sakurai loves moving the goalposts in that game.
Oh! You think you’re fighting the Underworld Army some more to get to Hades? Psych! Viridi and her Forces of Nature decide to interfere with their own plan to destroy humanity! Getting ready to stop her so you can focus back on Hades? Nope! Now you must team up with Hades, Viridi, and newcomer Pyrrhon to defeat the invading Auron. (Also, when you think you’re about to finish off the Auron, Pyrrhon betrays you, and now you have to make your way back through to fight him.) Think that you’re going back to fight Hades or Viridi, or maybe have a break? Nope! Turns out that earlier you freed some ancient evil trapped by Viridi that possesses Palutena, leaving Pit’s soul trapped in a ring while his body-on Palutena’s orders-starts to attack mankind, so now Magnus (an earlier ally) has to help you get your body back and then Viridi and your “evil” twin Dark Pit help you to free Palutena. You’d think that’d be good, right? Nope! The Chaos Kin tries to take Dark Pit down with it, so Pit ends up seriously injured and has to be taken to a magical fountain by Dark Pit to be rejuvenated, at which point Hades (who had been pretty much absent through most of the Chaos Kin debacle) reminds you that, oh yeah, you have to take care of him, too. So Pit gets revived, you go to fight Hades with the Three Sacred Treasures, but then Hades decides to destroy them in one fell swoop, then eat you. So you’re in his body and have to escape. You encounter and destroy his heart before escaping, which you’d think would kill him, but nope! He’s still fine. So now you have to get a new Great Sacred Treasure to fight Hades, which includes a bit of a boss rush against some old foes and the new weapon itself. Only then do you _finally_ get to fight and defeat Hades. And of course, if you wait long enough at the end credits, Hades’ disembodied voice comes and threatens to delete your save file (he doesn’t, thankfully).

How did you not mention Ghosts 'n' Goblins on NES?! You get to the final boss, kill him, then literally have to start over AT THE BEGINNING AND DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN!

Shadow the Hedgehog is also an example of this. You have to play through the starting level about 6 times and get a new ending each time to finally get the final boss/stage/ending.
You can also mention the Sunbeam from Subnautica, this ship was supposed to come and save you (you even a had a timer that counted time before it's arrival), but was unfortunately shoot down by an alien defense system.

No mention of Dishonored? You tear down the Regent, rescue Emily, and finally make it home, only to immediately get betrayed and have to do another 3rd of the game
You apparently forgot the ASTRO boy game. After completing the all the levels, you have to do them all over again and find extra secrets and do hidden levels before gaining access to the last stage.
One of my favorite games Giants: Citizen Kabuto does it when you fight the title character Kabuto (playing as him as well, sort of) and kill him in one hit and credits start rolling only for them to stop and reverse and he gets up and is now a much harder fight as you have to fight him as a much weaker character.
Where's persona 5? That game tricks you into thinking the game is over! Twice!
I fucking know right
yeah, with the whole "Joker getting shot but it was actually the cognition Joker in Sae's palace" thing, that was quite a surprise, plus the fact that the evil politician guy's palace was not the last one
I second that, my dude.
Keegan Lafferty dude spoilers
Like the time in Life when I thought I was done with school but it turned out there was university on top of that.
But it did lead to a well payed job so I can buy more videogames, so all is well that ends well, I guess.
You jerk! I thought I was done with school. Wow! Here comes the pain. I only finished 3/4th of my life.
@@dardestroy4502 That is a fact. There will be pain. Sorry about that.
Jade Empire.
err... spoilers? I hope the extra white space works.
You roll up, defeat the Emperor and get ready to be thanked by the nice, humble kung fu master you've devoted a lot of time to go rescue.... when he punches you in the stomach and murders you. Then you gotta claw your way back to the land of the living, defeat an army of golem murder machines and go punch him in the face in return.
I love Jade Empire
This was my first thought when I saw the video title lol
Okami. Everything points to Orochi being the final boss, but then there are like four more bosses and then an actual final boss.
Tales of Symphonia made you think you were almost done so many times, I lost count. They even brought in another overworld for one of them and that was still relatively early on.
A good few suggestions here, but no dishonored?? From the start of the game your one job is to take out the Lord Regent and his corrupt chums, but mere hours after doing that you learn that your allies forgot the bit about alliances where you don't immmediately backstab everyone install yourself as a tyrannical ruler just like the one you just overthrew. Now Corvo still has half a game to use his now finely honed assassin skills on a new set of backstabbing jerks.
How about God of War 2018? You clear a path to the top of the mountain to find out you have the wrong mountain in the wrong world
I wish Mimir would have said Krato's princes was in another mountain.

When I thought I was done with any soulsbourne game, only to find out that there are either optional bosses I missed, alternate endings, DLC, optional DLC bosses, Alternate DLC endings and hidden weapons and items. Plus New Game +10
But all those are not mandatory to end the story
Pokemon gold and silver version? You think you are done after beating the elite four, but nope now you got to do the Kanto region now.
I was okay with it
Just shapes and beats, there is achievements called, “its over”, “ok, maybe it wasn’t over”, “its over for real”, and finally “its over for real, really”. There are THREE fake endings
15:30 oooh so that's why Boss's spirit has increased launch
