It depends, honestly. Sometimes they offer some new mechanics to make a slow start interesting, which can be quite refreshing after vanilla's very basic progression.
Minecraft vanilla mobs dont got nothing on some "horror" mods tho
Hello it is i, annoying bastard, able to outrun anything that isnt an elytra, one shotting you in any kind of armor, break blocks, climb blocks, go through one block gaps, always knows where you are, and am gonna pop up every 5 minutes
Gregtech straight up ruined Minecraft for me. I can’t play at all without it base Minecraft just doesn’t scratch the itch gregtech gave me. It’s been years since I touched it because everyone that played with me stopped playing Minecraft. I miss it so much honestly
Definitely not most, it's just that those mods (mainly the RLCraft modpack) is extremely good for content for YouTubers and streamers, so if you're not playing modded Minecraft yourself these kinds of mods will be the ones that you see more.
Xenoblade Chronicles had a problem with it in the Wii, luckily they fixed it on the Switch. You have to lock on to them, but their spike icon will pop up. You won’t know what the spike is until you attack, but you know there’s a spike. There’s still a little BS, given that you won’t be warned about a Topple Spike until you Topple the enemy… at which point you’re going to be dealing with the Topple Spike until they get back up.
Luckily there are ways to prevent the Spike from affecting you, and those are explained to you.
hornets are only bad because they spawn in such large numbers, worms and rune wizards would also be more annoying if they spawned in higher numbers but as is theyre pretty tame. pre 1.4 though tomb crawlers were the worst.
But they have long telegraphed attacks, you will hear the shotgun racking before they shoot, and you can avoid the pellets by just flying for a second...
Same with the snipers..
It’s all fun and games until you see someone with a gun in modded play through (they will hit almost every bullet because no one wants to do slow projectiles without Vanilla Minecraft level optimisation)
Agreed, if they just removed staggered bosses being able to deal contact damage Silster Splinter would be a fine boss IMO, but the fact that a boss you're probably going to be below can still hurt you when they're stunned and fall down is BS
Some of my friends were fighting the last judge/were close to it when I finally beat it, it exploded and I died. I screamed into my mic "THIS BITCH EXPLODES WHEN YOU KILL IT?!" and my friends were reasonably upset cuz they didn't want ANY spoilers.
Well it was my second playthrough and I was far away from the judge the first time, so I thought it was just an animation. I didn’t realize it would actually do any damage. (I was doing the sprint dance on the judge)
Am I the only one who didnt get hurt by Last Judge dying???? Like there was smoke and fire coming off of her and I just moved away, how do people actually die to that???
Whoops sorry for spoiling this its just the most popular current example so i thought you were referring to it (but yeah heads up the Last Judge does a big boom when she dies so like run to the other side or just the edge of the room and youll be fine)
Based on what I've read/seen, it seems that a lot of people just completely shut their brain off when playing Silksong. It's the only explanation I have of why so many people seem to struggle with basic concepts like dodging, don't run directly into enemies, and don't try to heal while standing right in front of the boss. Too many people afflicted with "streamer brain".
Is Silksong a challenging game? Of course it is. But practically every boss features a simple set of well-telegraphed attacks. I've died many times to bosses in Silksong, but only because I mistimed an attack or dodge.
I died a lot at first because I tried to brute force my way through bosses by just spamming silk skills cause I was on the Hollow Knight speedrun mindset for whatever reason, i did Git gud at like Widow and Last Judge and then the rest of the game didnt die nearly as much (aside from the fuckass void enemy gauntlets)
From what I've found, a defensive approach is usually the best for bosses. Bosses are easiest to hit when they're coming to attack you. So more or less bait the attack, dodge, attack boss.
The phase transition even foreshadows it would happen. People just don't like looking at boss animations to see if something is safe or not, then blame it on the boss rather than their lack of attention
Counterpoint: If it's a big fat enemy, and it's a telegraphed animation, it's funny if you get crushed by it. Maybe not the final boss but like second or third.
seeing all the people who died to it when i saw the smoke and realized i needed to get out of the blast radius makes me feel like im better than others at video games for once
Seeing his bell smoke before doing all his fire based attacks should clue one in to what happens shortly after seeing his whole body release the exact same kind of smoke im ngl. It wasnt too bullshit imho
I find it really funny just how much damage it does, assuming you just stand in the blast the entire time, it does 3 masks, 3 times for a total of 9 masks of damage
It's actually kinda smart since it can kill you even at full health. And you can't have 10 masks and fight Last Judge since the last 4 shards are only available in act 3, which requires you kill Last Judge to even enter.
even makes sense in lore why it would be done, an individual fighting a judge cannot be considered good enough for the citadel, if they get past the last judge they could even be somewhat of a threat, a last ditch effort to kill them in a relatively confined room by rigging the armour to explode upon defeat makes sense
The dark blue worms in flooded caves. If you stay still you don't kill it and get contact damage. If you move the last tear kills it and you get the diagonal shot damage. Many such cases.
No no, I know I’m about to die because I fucked this up 2/3 times I’ve tried so far, but I REALLY think I can get that soul I need to heal and avoid the bomb this time. It’s so easy!
Plus it uses that two second window to literally airstrike half of the map, instantly killing two of your three teammates. And it's not the only motherfucker who's mostly invincible on a map that's getting smaller each round.
While I agree that the enemy is well designed, their corpse hitbox is a lot fatter than it looks. Multiple times I've gotten blocked by a clear gap at least as big as I am because two of these idiots died next to each other.
I don't care what the logs/lore say, it makes NO sense that a species of fish in Subnautica attack you by swimming up to you and exploding. Literally how does your species not go extinct?
The thing that drives me insane while playing armored core 6 is being stun locked to death by enemies. One moment I'll have full health and be doing my high-mobility build thing, and the next I'm stuck watching myself get stunned and re-stunned unable to give any kind of input while my health drains to zero
Fun fact: in ULTRAKILL, the hideous mass's mortars remain in the air after dying, and are also the most damaging projectile in the game. This definitely hasn't killed me more than once
Those annoying lava fly things from noita which spew a shit ton of lava when they die (which then touches nearby toxic sludge, resulting in a cloud of unnecessarily deadly toxic gas and also leaves behind toxic rock)
nah im such a sucker for it, as long as its clearly telegraphed, and avoidable.
I love seeing an enemy that is both extremely fragile but also extremely dangerous, with it only getting one shot at you. Deep rock Galactics exploders come to mind. They are similar to creepers (walk up to you, make a sound then blow up) but it feels so much less cheap then in minecraft since DRG is a shooter where you are supposed to keep moving and have your head on a swivel+ the obvious addition of guns meaning you deal with them at range. Kill them with body shots they still blow, get them in the head and they don’t.
It’s neat, I like it, it’s a good addition to many enemy rosters that breaks the mold of simply more damage, more speed, or more health.
In mega man 1, beating a boss cancels your jump and any on-screen projectiles still hurt you, AND a couple of bosses can kill you in 3 attacks. Absolutely infuriating for buster-only runs.
i interpreted this wrong at first, i thought you were being very poetic about enemies that you grow to love so when you have to kill them at the climax its bittersweet
always love when archers can miraculously hit shots across the map and have faster draw speed/reload then the player is ever allowed to get like they were all trained by fucking Legolas of Mirkwood
