I went a step farther in getting back at Benny. When I saw him tied up in the Caesars Legion camp, exactly the way my character was in the opening scene, I knew I had to execute him with his own gun to bring things full circle, even though it meant killing the entire legion camp including Caesar himself because they all went aggro on me afterward. Most satisfying cold blooded murder in fallout history.
I don't see a downside to that. My normal playthrough in FO:NV is to march into the Caesar's Legion camp, take care of the bunker, then kill the entire Legion starting with Caesar. I wouldn't mind if Benny was first. Then again, I usually convince Swank that Benny betrayed them and kill Benny immediately so I've never actually seen him at the camp...
Ah, Valen Dreth... One of exactly two reasons joining the Dark Brotherhood is worth it. The other, of course, is Shadowmere. Whose an adorable Daedric equine? You are!
I lost a game of "Dude, where's my horse?" in Skyrim. I'm pretty sure it was somewhere in the canyons around Markarth, but Shadowmere will have to take care of himself for a bit...
There was a glitch in my game where I preeminently killed shadow mare in Skyrim he fell off a cliff running to me and never respawned and I tried to reload the save but my previous save was too far back, I warned all my friends to stay away from cliffs
Dreth doesn't just have unique lines for all the races, he has slightly unique lines for your chosen gender as well which means that if you are a lady dunmer he throws some sexism on top of that racism.
Even if you don't do it yourself, convincing Anderson to go and punch Udina in the face towards the end of ME1 is extremly satisfying every single time.
@@techlorknight338 true. but I find a good old fashioned knuckle sandwich more gratifying. perhaps I'm just a sofite that way. plus, I don't tend to replay ME3 as much.
The best one was Runt in Kingdom Come: Deliverance. Literally bats you around like a cat with a ball of yarn because you were tying to bury your dead parents, and happened to have a shiny new sword your dad made at your hip. You then spend weeks recuperating, training and tracking down his gang as a medieval detective, and bring a whole army to bust up his camp, duel him in a burning church and bash his face in.
Zenimax never owned Obsidian. They contracted them out to make New Vegas, and unlike BioWare and Lucasarts who repressed and rushed Obsidian, Zenimax welcomed their input. Now that Microsoft owns them all, we might get another Obsidian made Fallout. I was hoping with Obsidian would come the final Kotor which they were making until like usual, BioWare stopped them from outshining their trash…. Again. Now the remake is in the hands of Aspyr, which I actually got behind, but instead of contracting with Microsoft, they contracted with Sony, who’s an Alphabet supporter game maker, so the remake Aspyr was gonna make has already become a horrid retelling of a once grand series, kinda like Swtor, but worse.
@@erikurizita6702 BioWare had nothing to do with Obsidian being rushed on KOTOR II, in fact they had moved on to Mass Effect at the time. What a weird thing to believe, it wasn’t like it was BioWare’s property anyways, it was Lucasarts lmao But also New Vegas was rushed as well.
@@Warlady21 it's mostly speculation, but if you pay attention to the NPC chats during quests: The rich old guy in Bruma verbally abuses his man servant (who you can't kill if you want the bonus) The pirate crew (whom you can't kill) hate the captain you're hired to kill but love their first mate. I think the mercenary captain is a suicide (haven't played in a while). At least one, if not all of, the guards hate Valen.

@@tyrant-den884 nothing really, i guess just headcanon. I couldnt think why there would be a bunch of randos needing murdered and i linked it to the trope that you alway get rid of the middle man when hiring assassins.
Also in the Bioware line: the Collector Ship at the start of Mass Effect 2. Wrecks the Normandy and literally kills you in the first five minutes. Several hours, new friendships and intense romances later (also a few costly upgrades) and you absolutely tear them to bits.
I'd also put in a word for being able to show everyone in the first Mass Effect. Saren Arterius goes rogue on the Citadel Council who refuse to believe anything Commander Shepard says, he gets to fly around on the back of Sovreign, a terrifying sentient spaceship called a Reaper who like murdering the entire galaxy every 50,000 years, AND he has one of your crewmate's mothers on-side. Also, the second time you and Saren meet, one of your squadmates dies setting off a nuclear bomb. Thankfully, right at the end, you get to end Saren (either by shooting at him or convincing him to kill himself), at which point Sovreign uploads itself into whatever's left of Saren's corpse. Upon defeating Saren/Sovreign, the massive spaceship holding its own against a united front of every council race, suddenly stops moving, at which point everybody blows it to bits. Your reward for this is "you were right all along" and, regardless of whether or not you chose to save the Citadel Council even after they refused to believe you despite the overwhelming evidence or let the obstinate bastards die, humans get a seat on the Council BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT then two years later, nobody believes in the Reapers anymore and the whole frustrating cycle begins anew.
Charles Lee in Assassin's Creed 3. He pins young Connor to a tree and burns down his village, killing his mother, only for Connor to spend the majority of his life training and hunting him down

@@daviddaugherty2816 Ah, OK then. Well, good luck, and make that son of a b***h Irenicus pay for his deeds since the beginning of the second game (unless you did SoD if you played that).
Dishonored: Death of the Outsider has the Outsider come along and take your arm after the first mission. Though he is at least polite enough to give you the upgrade immediately. The games title tells you one way this ends.
I guess beating Silver at every turn throughout Gold and Silver doesn't fit this list. I still think revenge is a dish best served as soon and as often as you dare.
A cool thing about jet stream Sam is that he was fully human as in the Japanese game all the robots bled white blood but jet stream Sam bled red human blood
That’s what I found cool too, I did notice (at least the english version of the game) they have raiden bleed red blood too but that’s inconsistent with raiden in Mgs4 where he bleeds white blood
I can say that I actually like Benny, and after spending the night with him, I never killed him. This was actually the first time I've ever seen the cut scenes where you murder him.
Have you ever noticed how each of them have one game they tend to talk about in most lists? Luke: Breath of the Wild/Soul Series Andy: Yakuza series? Ellen: Kingdoms of Amalur Mike: Soul Series Jane: Fable? Just an observation ^^
Revenge on Seifer in FF8 is missing? He calls you a pubescent boy, abandons you to a HUGE mechanical spider-bot and then joins the enemy. You finally get revenge at the end of disk 1. Yay! Then disks 2/3/4: he tortures you, leads an army into a school you run and finally hands your girl over to a space defrosting sorceress controlled by a future sorceress! Then he KILLS Odin. He was ripe for repeated beatings!
@@EmonyLP I play it every year. The final revenge is that he is reduced to becoming a useless fisherman in Balamb - which he invaded and wouldn't cope with the forgiveness of the locals. Plus, he clearly sucks at fishing! :)
@@Numbers-06127 Just out of curiosity: do you prefer low-level no enemy encounter runs (and morphing almost every enemy) or do play it the normal way? I love the game yet have finished it only 5 or 6 times since its release in 1999 but could never bring myself to go the length and avoid fights or morph most enemies.
@@Pendragon667 I like to mix it up. Getting all top weapons on disk 1 (except Irvine's) was fun but way too long. Gotta spend 20 hours playing triple triad cards for items. Honestly never bothered with morph, I prefer to use physical atks with high junctioned magic.
The section about killing Benny with the Black Widow perk makes me wonder, have y'all ever done a "7 times characters had unenthusiastic pillow talk" video?
Benny's bedroom talk reminds me of those episodes of Friends, and Monica is a better actress than we gave her credit for when she said Chandler was amazing in the sack.
If you take the chip in Deus Ex, the fight Jaron can be cheesed by slowly dragging a turret from another area of the map, hacking a terminal to have it fire at enemies, and then after the cutscene you run back and hide in the elevator until the turret kills Jaron. this makes the fight possible if you take the chip and have a glitchy head
"Got in touch with your cackling, insane, murderous alter ego called jack the ripper" As someone who has never played a kojima game, let me sincerely say: What.
I've only played that one and "What?" is apparently the expected reaction to every story beat. The combat is awesome though and some of the boss fights are really creative.
Oh the delicious reaction of Valen Dreth when I came back as a member of the Dark Brotherhood.. *right when he's about to be released from prison at last* [Insert Ursula evil laugh gif here]
The first Bioshock is a prime example of this. Spoiler below. Granted you don’t know Atlas is the big evil jerk screwing you over until halfway through the game, but it’s still sweet taking him out.
How about the time it happened to Batman himself? Arkham City has you captured and beat up by Dr. Strange at the beginning - and later disarm his city-destroying tower and punch him in the face.
Perhaps more satisfying is Deadshot. He gives you this smug "Bruce Wayne..... you're on my list!" *(pantomimes a gunshot)* when you walk past him at the start.
@@HelpTheWretched Yeah, but he doesn't actually *do* anything to you. Dr. Strange is actually the one who has you beat up, arrested, and thrown in Arkham City. (Even if he doesn't do anything physical personally.)
In Wing Commander IV, you get into an altercation with Seether in a bar and then shortly afterwards, you're forced to watch while he blows up the space station you were about to dock at, very nearly leaving you stranded in deep space. He finally gets his comeuppance at the end of the game.
Where's that irritating pirate from Pliiars of Eternity 2? He humiliaes you, then sinks your ship and kills part of your crew. But he recognizes you when you meet again later. In my case it was after I had stolen his ship and lured him away from his guards, and it was so satisfying to listen to him trying to negotiate his way out of this.
SA-X from Metroid Fusion. It steals your favorite suit and all the weapons that come with it, and all you can do whenever you see it for most of the game is run and hide. And while the SA-X might not be the final boss of the game, it sure feels satisfying to finally be able to face it on even footing instead of having to run from it.
Ugh, I mean, how do you do this list without the ultimate classic example of this; naming your rival Buttface, murdering his Pokémon, stealing his dream, and making his grandfather embarrassed of him.
How has borderlands 2 not made either of these lists? Handsome jack literally set up the vault haunters, attacked them, blew up the train they were on and left them to die in a frozen wastelands.
I'm not sure if Handsome Jack from Borderlands 2 counts or not, since, yes, he is that jerk from the start of the game, but he's also just that jerk from the entire runtime of the game. Gao the Lesser from Jade Empire is a good one. He's a jerk, he won't get over himself, he cheats when he loses, he's a Nice Guy, and he's called "the Lesser".
In a game called Man-Eater, you start off as a fully powered up adult bull shark with cool powers Until a stupid shark hunter catches you for eating a few people and cuts you open revealing that you were pregnant and the baby takes off his hand and swims off to become your new character Then you work toward becoming a fully powered up adult with cool powers that eats people to get the attention of shark hunters, killing them all until you get the attention of the guy that killed your mother
Nah, Sir Pat is in Oblivion, because several of the Bugthesda devs are a bunch trekkies and decided to spend the other half of the voice cast budget fangirling over him being in their game. (the other half was spent on Sean Bean, because 2005)
@15:00 Andy: "[it's] the perfect excuse for them to jam a billion dollars worth of experimental nano-technology into [Adam Jensen's] shattered body." If you'll allow me to 'actually' for a second, Adam Jensen didn't get any nanotech augments, as the technology still wasn't there yet. It would take another ~20 years before JC Denton came on the scene, the player character from the original Deus Ex (2000), who is the first UNATCO agent to be fully augmented through nanomachines, after his brother Paul, who was only partially augmented via that method.
This time around Mike didn't even bother having a quip after Sekiro has his arm chopped off two ways. "You Died"; "Prepare to Die" ; "Shadows Die a Billion Times" -- we get it, From!
Handsome Jack in Borderlands 2 is an amazing villain who's so fun, but also what a jerk who screws you over on the train and proceeds to flat out murder important characters. Sure, you could let Lilith kill him, and arguably it makes more sense narratively, but taking him out is so satisfying.
Jetstream sam is the most tragic villain with a twist because he appears as an arrogant and badass ninja but he really is a person whose trying to escape the reality and the only way he can do it is with violence
I think THE MOST satisfying kill i've ever had in a video game is General Engel from Wolfenstein. In the first game she is a minor antagonist but in the second game she is the primary antagonist. She cuts off Carol's head right in front of you, then cuts off Wyatt's ear/Ferguson's arm AND THEN steals the ring that BJ was going to give to Anya AND cuts your head off. To say splitting her head open with a hatchet at the end of the game was super satisfying would be a serious understatement.
Killing valen dreth for the first time was the best feeling thing I ever did in my life... Worth loading and doing again like 15 times on my first run :D
How has Eric from THUG not been included in these? Getting that tape back at the end with the hotel gap trick set to new noise by refused was so satisfying.
Mike jokes about Zero's death, but if Zero didn't sacrifice himself, Vile would've still had his invincible power armor and that boss fight would've ended the same as the first.
Whispy Woods from Kirby: Planet Robobot. He never has a health bar and you can only run away, but in one of the last levels, you are in the robobot armor and beat him while in the same style as the first level
I think Berdly from Deltarune is a minor example. He mocks you all throughout Chapter 1 if you talk to him and you get to absolutely destroy him in the optional Weird Route of Chapter 2
Since it looks like part one was three years ago I’m going to assume that you guys have not covered ghost of Tsushima. And pretty much right at the beginning Khotun khan (sp?) kicks your butt and you spend the rest of the game trying to kill him.
I feel like Jr. Troopa from Paper Mario is the archetypical example of this; though perhaps he becomes more powerful relative to your hero over time rather than less.
Based on the caliber Benny was packing in that cutscene in New Vegas, and considering that angle would likely cause that caliber bullet to bounce off your forehead, it’s unsurprising that the shot just knocked you badly unconscious. What is surprising, however, is that Benny didn’t just shoot you again after you conked out.
I mean he's clearly not the brightest lightbulb ever. A woman he just shot in the head shows up and tries to lure him to his bed to get him alone and he goes along with it, thinking she's just a freak with some messed up kink. If you're that stupid I'm not surprised he didn't make sure we were actually dead.
I’ll only say this once: NEVER let Bethesda have any form of credit for the creativity put into fallout new Vegas. Mainly because Bethesda wouldn’t know what creativity was if it came up and punched them in the nose
Man, Valen Dreth. That name takes me back. I remember during my 100% run way, way back I trapped him in a black soul gem and put it on display in Battlehorn Castle. Him, Mannimarco, Umaril, Jyggalag, and Mankar Camoran.
I went a step farther in getting back at Benny.

@@michaelandreipalon359 I never let him join the party if that's what you're asking, although I always have a full group by that point, anyway. One of these days when I revisit the series, I'll kill him again in ToB for chuckles just to make it 3 times.
After some thought, Irenicus from BG 2 fits the video's topic, too. Capture me in narration will you... well, prepare to be double-killed for it in the finale.
@@daviddaugherty2816 Ah, OK then.
Well, good luck, and make that son of a b***h Irenicus pay for his deeds since the beginning of the second game (unless you did SoD if you played that).
Two of the jerks in this list have cut off the player's arm. Funny thing, that
Gotta hate that Skywalker tradition.
You would think villains would quit with the whole arm slicing thing, as it does seem to just come back and bite em good later.
Dishonored: Death of the Outsider has the Outsider come along and take your arm after the first mission. Though he is at least polite enough to give you the upgrade immediately. The games title tells you one way this ends.
Maybe if you haven't kept calling it a 'Samurai Prosthetic', and used its real name, 'Shinobi Prosthetic', Genichiro wouldn't have cut your arm off.
I guess beating Silver at every turn throughout Gold and Silver doesn't fit this list. I still think revenge is a dish best served as soon and as often as you dare.
A cool thing about jet stream Sam is that he was fully human as in the Japanese game all the robots bled white blood but jet stream Sam bled red human blood
That’s what I found cool too, I did notice (at least the english version of the game) they have raiden bleed red blood too but that’s inconsistent with raiden in Mgs4 where he bleeds white blood
He is not fully human..... his right arm is a mechanical arm
@@fightnerd was about to mention that. It’s still impressive he puts up such a fight considering it’s only his arm that’s cybernetic.
The fact that andy had to explain the chandler aged me 30 years ngl
Oh hello there Valen... Haven't seen you in a while... What was that about getting out of the Imperial Prison again?
I can say that I actually like Benny, and after spending the night with him, I never killed him. This was actually the first time I've ever seen the cut scenes where you murder him.
I like Benny too, and his fate for my play throughs depend on the character I'm playing as. 😄
Have you ever noticed how each of them have one game they tend to talk about in most lists?
Luke: Breath of the Wild/Soul Series
Andy: Yakuza series?
Ellen: Kingdoms of Amalur
Mike: Soul Series
Jane: Fable?
Just an observation ^^
[Protoype 2] Is ENTIRELY ABOUT getting back at that jerk from the start of the game.
The Devil may Cry games as a series encapsulate this so well. Like, three of the games are just this but with your brother in one way or another.
Revenge on Seifer in FF8 is missing? He calls you a pubescent boy, abandons you to a HUGE mechanical spider-bot and then joins the enemy. You finally get revenge at the end of disk 1. Yay!
Then disks 2/3/4: he tortures you, leads an army into a school you run and finally hands your girl over to a space defrosting sorceress controlled by a future sorceress! Then he KILLS Odin. He was ripe for repeated beatings!
Seen the ending recently? Granted, some might find fishing pretty boring, but I wouldn't exactly call it revenge . . .
@@EmonyLP I play it every year. The final revenge is that he is reduced to becoming a useless fisherman in Balamb - which he invaded and wouldn't cope with the forgiveness of the locals. Plus, he clearly sucks at fishing! :)
@@Numbers-06127 Just out of curiosity: do you prefer low-level no enemy encounter runs (and morphing almost every enemy) or do play it the normal way?
I love the game yet have finished it only 5 or 6 times since its release in 1999 but could never bring myself to go the length and avoid fights or morph most enemies.
@@Pendragon667 I like to mix it up. Getting all top weapons on disk 1 (except Irvine's) was fun but way too long. Gotta spend 20 hours playing triple triad cards for items. Honestly never bothered with morph, I prefer to use physical atks with high junctioned magic.
Petition to make a Mad Max sequel:
The section about killing Benny with the Black Widow perk makes me wonder, have y'all ever done a "7 times characters had unenthusiastic pillow talk" video?
Tartuccio from Pathfinder Kingmaker is an asshole to you at the start… and then you get to kill him as many as three times.
Benny's bedroom talk reminds me of those episodes of Friends, and Monica is a better actress than we gave her credit for when she said Chandler was amazing in the sack.
"Woah! That was almost a full 360. Guess that's the 'human revolution' the title is talking about." 😆
Could I BE any more dead? Could a joke AGE any more badly? RIP Matthew Perry
There's something so funny to me when you blast a fireball in Valen's face and have the popup give a great freeze frame
Great list! But my personal favorite was watching my un-evolved and overpowered Charmander defeating Gary in Pokémon.
Awww the memories!
If you take the chip in Deus Ex, the fight Jaron can be cheesed by slowly dragging a turret from another area of the map, hacking a terminal to have it fire at enemies, and then after the cutscene you run back and hide in the elevator until the turret kills Jaron. this makes the fight possible if you take the chip and have a glitchy head
"Got in touch with your cackling, insane, murderous alter ego called jack the ripper" As someone who has never played a kojima game, let me sincerely say: What.
To be fair, that isn't even in the top ten of WTFs in Kojima's output.
I've only played that one and "What?" is apparently the expected reaction to every story beat. The combat is awesome though and some of the boss fights are really creative.
Oh the delicious reaction of Valen Dreth when I came back as a member of the Dark Brotherhood.. *right when he's about to be released from prison at last*
[Insert Ursula evil laugh gif here]
The first Bioshock is a prime example of this. Spoiler below.
Granted you don’t know Atlas is the big evil jerk screwing you over until halfway through the game, but it’s still sweet taking him out.
How about the time it happened to Batman himself? Arkham City has you captured and beat up by Dr. Strange at the beginning - and later disarm his city-destroying tower and punch him in the face.
Perhaps more satisfying is Deadshot. He gives you this smug "Bruce Wayne..... you're on my list!" *(pantomimes a gunshot)* when you walk past him at the start.
@@HelpTheWretched Yeah, but he doesn't actually *do* anything to you. Dr. Strange is actually the one who has you beat up, arrested, and thrown in Arkham City. (Even if he doesn't do anything physical personally.)
In Wing Commander IV, you get into an altercation with Seether in a bar and then shortly afterwards, you're forced to watch while he blows up the space station you were about to dock at, very nearly leaving you stranded in deep space. He finally gets his comeuppance at the end of the game.
Where's that irritating pirate from Pliiars of Eternity 2? He humiliaes you, then sinks your ship and kills part of your crew. But he recognizes you when you meet again later. In my case it was after I had stolen his ship and lured him away from his guards, and it was so satisfying to listen to him trying to negotiate his way out of this.
SA-X from Metroid Fusion. It steals your favorite suit and all the weapons that come with it, and all you can do whenever you see it for most of the game is run and hide. And while the SA-X might not be the final boss of the game, it sure feels satisfying to finally be able to face it on even footing instead of having to run from it.
Ugh, I mean, how do you do this list without the ultimate classic example of this; naming your rival Buttface, murdering his Pokémon, stealing his dream, and making his grandfather embarrassed of him.
"To paraphrase Oscar Wilde: Shut up!" 😂
Man, Benny keeps showing up in lists. It's like Fallout: New Vegas is a great game, or something.
How has borderlands 2 not made either of these lists? Handsome jack literally set up the vault haunters, attacked them, blew up the train they were on and left them to die in a frozen wastelands.
I'm not sure if Handsome Jack from Borderlands 2 counts or not, since, yes, he is that jerk from the start of the game, but he's also just that jerk from the entire runtime of the game.
Gao the Lesser from Jade Empire is a good one. He's a jerk, he won't get over himself, he cheats when he loses, he's a Nice Guy, and he's called "the Lesser".
In a game called Man-Eater, you start off as a fully powered up adult bull shark with cool powers
Until a stupid shark hunter catches you for eating a few people and cuts you open revealing that you were pregnant and the baby takes off his hand and swims off to become your new character
Then you work toward becoming a fully powered up adult with cool powers that eats people to get the attention of shark hunters, killing them all until you get the attention of the guy that killed your mother
Though Stewart was in Skyrim prison over that Borg thing
Nah, Sir Pat is in Oblivion, because several of the Bugthesda devs are a bunch trekkies and decided to spend the other half of the voice cast budget fangirling over him being in their game. (the other half was spent on Sean Bean, because 2005)
"Nice charlies, give em shake for the ben man" always gets a good chuckle out of me lmfao
lol The part "How am i the Megaman" and "he is the Zero" really got me.
"no one gets out of here alive" "I'm getting out of here in a few months"
@15:00 Andy: "[it's] the perfect excuse for them to jam a billion dollars worth of experimental nano-technology into [Adam Jensen's] shattered body."
If you'll allow me to 'actually' for a second, Adam Jensen didn't get any nanotech augments, as the technology still wasn't there yet. It would take another ~20 years before JC Denton came on the scene, the player character from the original Deus Ex (2000), who is the first UNATCO agent to be fully augmented through nanomachines, after his brother Paul, who was only partially augmented via that method.
I fucking love when you guys just refer to characters as their celebrity VAs
This time around Mike didn't even bother having a quip after Sekiro has his arm chopped off two ways. "You Died"; "Prepare to Die" ; "Shadows Die a Billion Times" -- we get it, From!
"to lose one parent is unfortunate. To lose them both seems like carelessness"
Handsome Jack in Borderlands 2 is an amazing villain who's so fun, but also what a jerk who screws you over on the train and proceeds to flat out murder important characters. Sure, you could let Lilith kill him, and arguably it makes more sense narratively, but taking him out is so satisfying.
Oh god, X going “HADOKEN!!!” and one shoting Vile is hilarious xD
Jetstream sam is the most tragic villain with a twist because he appears as an arrogant and badass ninja but he really is a person whose trying to escape the reality and the only way he can do it is with violence
The fact that they didn't say beat Benny to death with a tire iron, the best option
I always thought jetstream Sam was just one of the terraria calamity mod dev’s nickname, and that murasama was a new sword concept. I guess not
Muramasa is one of the most famous swords from ancient Japan.
@@marhawkman303 I know, I said murasama not muramasa
@@thezombieonyourlawn3023 well slightly different name... s;ightly... :p
I think THE MOST satisfying kill i've ever had in a video game is General Engel from Wolfenstein. In the first game she is a minor antagonist but in the second game she is the primary antagonist. She cuts off Carol's head right in front of you, then cuts off Wyatt's ear/Ferguson's arm AND THEN steals the ring that BJ was going to give to Anya AND cuts your head off. To say splitting her head open with a hatchet at the end of the game was super satisfying would be a serious understatement.
SO glad to see Vile on this list properly now!
Fallout New Vegas > Fallout 4 and Fallout 3........I don't care what anyone says I like Matthew Perry as Benny 😌😄
Killing valen dreth for the first time was the best feeling thing I ever did in my life...
Worth loading and doing again like 15 times on my first run :D
Mike: "Which, I gotta say, not what I'd call a nice surprise" Died
How has Eric from THUG not been included in these? Getting that tape back at the end with the hotel gap trick set to new noise by refused was so satisfying.
Mike jokes about Zero's death, but if Zero didn't sacrifice himself, Vile would've still had his invincible power armor and that boss fight would've ended the same as the first.
Whispy Woods from Kirby: Planet Robobot.
He never has a health bar and you can only run away, but in one of the last levels, you are in the robobot armor and beat him while in the same style as the first level
I think Berdly from Deltarune is a minor example. He mocks you all throughout Chapter 1 if you talk to him and you get to absolutely destroy him in the optional Weird Route of Chapter 2
The final fight against Metal Face in Xenoblade Chronicles 1 deserves a mention, even if the main character ultimately decides against killing him.
Since it looks like part one was three years ago I’m going to assume that you guys have not covered ghost of Tsushima. And pretty much right at the beginning Khotun khan (sp?) kicks your butt and you spend the rest of the game trying to kill him.
Ok
Ok
"Shit, not again..." Damn, he's both not used to this and quite used to it somehow.
Sorry to be that guy but Obsidian developed Fallout: New Vegas, not Bethesda
I feel like Jr. Troopa from Paper Mario is the archetypical example of this; though perhaps he becomes more powerful relative to your hero over time rather than less.
Valen "you're dead"
The player: "No U"
5:53 worst voice acting ever, so dead
I missed this channel so much!!! I haven't watched this channel in months
Based on the caliber Benny was packing in that cutscene in New Vegas, and considering that angle would likely cause that caliber bullet to bounce off your forehead, it’s unsurprising that the shot just knocked you badly unconscious. What is surprising, however, is that Benny didn’t just shoot you again after you conked out.
I mean he's clearly not the brightest lightbulb ever. A woman he just shot in the head shows up and tries to lure him to his bed to get him alone and he goes along with it, thinking she's just a freak with some messed up kink. If you're that stupid I'm not surprised he didn't make sure we were actually dead.
I enjoyed beating Genichro twice and then again in Sekiro's head, I love the feel of the boss battles in Sekiro.
I’ll only say this once: NEVER let Bethesda have any form of credit for the creativity put into fallout new Vegas. Mainly because Bethesda wouldn’t know what creativity was if it came up and punched them in the nose
I don't know much about Mega Man, but I'm sure there's a very reasonable explanation for why Vile goes around cosplaying as a purple Boba Fett.
Man, Valen Dreth. That name takes me back.
I remember during my 100% run way, way back I trapped him in a black soul gem and put it on display in Battlehorn Castle. Him, Mannimarco, Umaril, Jyggalag, and Mankar Camoran.
The demon at the beginning of Demon’s Souls. Not only can you kill it in the fourth world, but you can do it from relative safety standing in a hole.
