Kai Leng had so much potential as a badguy, then again I thought Cerberus was stupid in ME3 given my choices during ME1 and 2, but meh.

Lu Bu. Dear god, this guy sucked so HARD to fight...and you always fight him in that first story fight. Although, if you have a juggler he's stupidly easy.

Let's see, in Dark Souls I've wandered through Darkroot Garden killing Ents and trying to avoid those annoying stone knights who hit you with this weird stun spell. Bear in mind, I play a character who exclusively is a melee fighter. I go through a foggy door and then "SURPRISE! GIANT LUNA MOTH THAT YOU CAN HIT WITH YOUR LONGSWORD, ASSWIPE!" I'm going to loathe having to go back through that area if I can ever beat the Chaos Witch. Of course, I still haven't experience the gauntlet of misery that apparently is Sen's Fortress.

The end boss of most fighting games, Seth from sf4 shou man and many others, most often they are cheap as hell and when you win it feels like luck not skill.

Shield people in dragons dogma were solid when I first played it, far more so than most monsters.


Titan in ff14

From Icewind Dale 1, there is one dungegon that first requiers you to slogg trough hordes of Lizzardmen, Trolls, different variantys of massive araknids. However these fiends and the subsequent mini boss you have to kill( The LIzzard king) is notting compared to the cheating fiend that is Yxunomei. Not onlly dose she requiers magical weapons to kill her, but she also summons help from any and all evil minions you may have overlooked. And all this takes place while you are still relativly low leveled.

The quick-time boss knife-fight in RE4. I hated that motehrfether. All game long, I've shot at bosses and had quick time events tossed at me to dodge certain attacks, but an entire boss fight that is nothing but QTEs, where even one mistake means I'm doing the whole thing over again?

Feth you, Capcom. Feth you right in your gawdammed ear.

Krauser was it? From RE4 i mean.

Those "counter ALL THE ATTACKS" enemies.

You know the ones.

Yes. That was the one. I hated that fight and I hated Capcom for making me do it.

Ornstein & Smaug in Dark Souls 1. I took a lot of beating from these two fethers.

Goblinoids of all sorts & shapes in any of the Icewind Dale & Baldurs Gate games, its not that they are so damned powerfull on their own, but execept that there is always hundreds of the damned things swarming all around you, ready to tear you a new one. And that they always seems to have with them some annoying spellcaster or two alongside the odd mixture of Orogs, Giants, trolls or worg riders

Eh. He was always Mary Sue-ish. Frankly he had less personality than Vegeta

Guile on hardest on SF2.

The end boss of Half life 1, what a trainwreck.

The mind control aliens from Xcom #shudder

You do realize there is a summon you can use that will litterally kill the moth for you.
The witch is easy because the fight doesnt reset.

Creepers. nothing makes you need new underwear like that hiss...

back when I played WoW, I despised the bosses with randomly targeted CC. that and the puzzle bosses that took more time to explain to a new player than to actually defeat.

Finally, I absolutely HATE when a game includes an enemy that forces you to play a certain way to beat it. Examples being bosses in an otherwise stealth based game that you fight without being able to hide from. or in an FPS that up until that point did not absolutely require the use of cover, suddenly the only way to survive this one enemy is to hide behind boxes.

WoW's Harvester of Souls is pretty annoying at level 80, when your entire party decides it's a good idea to attack the thing while it's reflecting damage dealt to it to me...

Having just bought Half-Life 2, and having faced stalkers in Gmod. I'm scared

When I was little, I had SMB3. I could not get past world two, because I could not face the ghosts. They freaked me the hell out. I made my dad play the fortress levels for me.

You know what? I had done a pretty good job of purging them from my memory until you brought them up. Thanks for making me relive that frustration.





Still, revenge was pretty sweet once I developed my own Mind Control tech...

That is indeed a good one!

Man those guys were a nightmare.. loved it in the first game when the mind controlled members of your team suddenly looked different, scary as hell!

My own people in the original XCOM.

Four words.

High Priests of Ordos.

The fethers take ages to kill (26m hp) and they have a drop rate of ~0,79% on an item I want. :(

YOU DARE LOOK UPON THE HOST OF SOULS?! I SHALL DEVOUR YOU WHOLE!

*ahem* I think you mean the Devourer of Souls? (That thing has a great voice, though. )

Pure distilled annoyance

EDIT: Spoiler tags because the image was huge

I hate any enemy that uses these:

The end bosses from GW2 and DoW2:Retribution ,both are an incredibly boring chore,i'd hate to fight em again

That's another great one! Possibly the most annoying enemy in the entire Elder Scrolls series.

Mace Windu on the Revenge of the Sith video game for GBA/DS. Damn him and his nearly unblockable attacks.

My most hated enemy can be neatly summarized in this one picture



Seriously, feth those things.

He was rough on the Xbox as well, he'd just throw you across a room, let you get up, and throw you across a room again. The hardest enemy on that game, though, I think was either Cin Dralig (The Jedi Temple guy) or Dooku, for being the first boss battle.
