Bonus point for Jedi: Fallen Order: If you so much as look back at Vader during the chase, he instantly kills you
Doesn’t he choke you for a little bit before killing Cal, meaning it isn’t actually instant?
@@The_Sleepiest_Socialist He grabs and force snaps your neck. Like the insect you are for him.
I like that Cal was flailing around with both hands while Vader casually used one for his lightsaber.
I think it's set a bit before his tussle with ol' Ben, so it's just cool the difference in skill levels.
REALLY?!
Well, there's a game Mike is never going to beat then. He *always* looks back.
I love that Alice: Madness Returns one. It stays on your tail for SO long and then that payoff... In a dark, dark game, that was such well-needed relief.
One of my all time favorite games even have my right arm done with an American McGee's Alice sleeve
I agree, have you seen the preproduction of Alice 3?
@@felipebedoya3943 I haven't, didn't even know they had plans for one
I've been supporting him via Patreon for the 3rd game/ prequel for a few years now. I've got some extremely cool limited edition posters, necklace, coin, dog tags and Alice's rabbit doll plushie. Excited for the next game!
I think my favorite level from Alice: Madness Returns was Caterpillar's Domain. The feudal japanese influence was beautifully incorporated.
Luke not being able run from whatever is terrorizing Ellen is correct, because of his knees. This what I come to OutsideXtra for… consistent narrative.
Wait I believe I missed something, what happened to Luke’s knees?
@@clevernamehere7283 Tom Nook sent his goons round because Luke got behind on his crippling loans. They became actually crippling instead of metaphorically.
In the first bosses you can only run from, Luke and Ellen got fired. Consistansy.
@@clevernamehere7283 he tripped and fell at the start of the video
Alice: Madness Returns is one of the most underrated games of all time.

The three musketeers of underrated games:
The whole Mario and Luigi series (I mean the RPGs for the DS),
Alice: Madness Returns, and
Fran Bow
Love the inclusion of the Jedi Fallen Order villain on this list. Throughout Fallen Order, the game has been giving you tips in your menu on dealing with enemies. Reading Vader’s description, it basically says, ‘Escape is the only chance of survival.’ Such a polite way of saying, ‘Runaway!’. (Holy Grail voice)
Yeah cal is ducked in the next game if he doesn't die vader doesn't just give up
Yeah, that bit in the strategy tips was epic.
How about the entirety of Catherine. Both literally and thematically. Running from killer nightmares in your dreams after running from all your problems in the pub. It's basically this video, the game.
that's all the bosses.
it doesn't count if that's the main mechanic for the entire game, since you don't defeat the bosses in any other way
I could be totally wrong but I think they included the big baby in the first video
@@zoesmith7404 it was included in a video about scary babies
Doesn't that make it a "video game? " I'll see myself out
I like how the executioner reacts to big Alice like: "Oh shit."
And Alice's shit-eating smirk of: "Turn about's fair play, bitch!"
"Can we forget all the chasing and the spinning scythe thing? Ha..ha.."
This is exactly what I was thinking when I saw it.
"... I.. uuh... Am your biggest fan..."
It was glorious.😂
Ellen: I think I know a guy in Rapture that can help with Songbird's waterproofing.
Elizabeth: *Takes Songbird to Rapture*
Songbird: *Dies immediately*
10:58 Honestly, Luke got off lightly with only being called "scum" for filling a teapot that way, it's basically heresy
That is why they call it "Luke" warm
@@andrewsutherland7913 (Andy's voice in the background) Booooooo!
Cum
Hear hear!
So no iced tea, then?
"you speak giant nightmare feotus?"
"Yes it was an elective on Asgard"
Totally underrated comment
I understood that reference
I love that Jedi Fallen Order is in this. It really did Vader justice, in that you fight through the whole game and then at the end, you think it's a final boss -- but no, it's Vader, and you are absolutely nothing against him. A nuisance, at best. It was such a great sequence, and the only way they could have done Vader right.
It was very well done. The whole game was. That "Trap" with the sister's saber, brilliant.
“Lace up your escaping shoes!”
*looks wistfully at my slippers and accepts my fate
Looking at the state of mine, I might have at best 5 good runs left so I really hope I don't have many bosses I have to run from.
@@DirgeTV Well, you've got 7, good luck
@@DirgeTV I exclusively wear Sandals (I'm from Florida btw), so my feet will be sore.
"Definitely puts me off motherhood." was one of the great quotes of this year's Fear Academy.
Along with keep quiet 🤫 the baby can hear you through the controller😈 😂🤣😂🤣
@@oxfanblink4115 generally all of Andy’s “Oh, oh no…” were great 😅
@@TheWindii Yeah 😅
You know what would be a great "sister list" to these? 7 boss fights where the only way to win is to lose. And not even like, first tutorial fights, but proper bosses, maybe even final bosses! I can think of two from the top of my head and I doubt they're the only ones.
I wonder if we're thinking of the same two? The ones I can think of are Seath the Scaleless from Dark Souls and Xord from Xenoblade Chronicles.
@@darkraidisciple8717 star wars jedi outcast also has one, dont remember the name though.
Hellblade: Senua's sacrifice comes to mind. Although that final fight is quite specific, and I'm not sure if it would fall into this category.
@@alhena11 that's EXACTLY the first one that popped into my mind, too! : D I can't tell how long I kept going at that fight before I admitted defeat.
@@Paperiahma I know, right! Throughout the whole game you even got very good in combat so you can actually go on for quite a long time. It's such an awesomly done ending.
RE village baby: you can just stand facing the approaching baby at the elevator door and wait, and hold back on the controller. You'll slide in as the it opens, and quickly hit the button.
A cross between "Glados and a Demogorgon"
You guys have some great writers!
Is Luke trying to run away from Jane?
I know she is close to finishing the “adjustments”, but Luke’s contract already requires full compliance or the “weapon” will need to be released, again.
The 'weapon' of course is just mike with a grenade launcher
wtf is the “weapon”
@@itscznben8728 If Jane told us, then it wouldn't be able fun. But it probably is just Mike with some explodiy.
Mike with an artificial sun
One should never try to run from our Dark Queen. All shall bow and pay homage to her true form, or all shall despair.
Ooh, wasn't expecting Songbird in this list. I guess because you never actually fight him and Elizabeth takes care of it for you in the end. That said, I'm delighted to see Songbird because BioShock Infinite is pretty high up on my list of favorite games ever, and the ending from the time the tower is destroyed onward is some of my favorite bits of any game. The music, everything clicking together, being back in Rapture. I love the connection the two cities have and everything. It's so good.
I would definitely love a Songbird toy like they have in the game.
I prefer bioshock 1, but bioshock inf is ok
@@noticeme6412 I've started BioShock a few times, but I've never made it very far into the game. I think the furthest along I've gotten was when Jack gets the "would you kindly" programming broken. Part of it for me is that the atmosphere of rapture gets to me and I'm rather like Ellen and Andy in that horror and I don't get along too well. Well, jumpscare-style horror and I don't get along well. I do just fine in Bloodborne with eldritch-style horror. I am trying to get through Resident Evil 7 though.
I'm astounded they aren't on Etsy or something.
@@alexythemechanic8056 I haven't really looked there or eBay, but apparently there were some made when the game originally released.
@@SolaScientia it probably wasnt your type of horror then
It's mostly in my head because of the Ori clips and Songbird from Bioshock, but the ink monster from Gris springs to mind too. A boss fight in a game with no combat mechanics (and no failure states) is always going to be dominated by the "run away!" strategy.
Finally someone mentions Gris
And 50 nostalgia points for Ellen with the "Tremors" mention during the Ori section.
I'm still traumatized by the SA-X from Metroid: Fusion. ADAM makes itself extremely clear about how out far of your league the Samus/X-parasite hybrid is, and that the only way to survive is to hide when you can, and run when you can't.
The first few encounters have you cowering in corners, under floors, in ductwork, anywhere that will keep you safe from the creature. But then, without warning, one sequence drops you into a room DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE THING. Your only option is to leg it, dodging its attacks and doing your level best to stun it for a heartbeat at a time with a well-timed Ice Missile. You do eventually get to destroy it mano e mano, but it's a long time coming.
Oh god the SA-X. I thought I repressed that memory
The SA-X has a SPECIAL place in my heart reserved for only the worst nightmares ever
Only for it to save your ass during the fight with the Omega Metroid
YEEES, this is what I wanted to be referenced!
I had a similar thing happen with Ni No Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom.
You see a cutscene a short while after the beginning portions of the game that literally mirrors SA-X's Introduction Sequence.
(Walking forward a bit, then turns to the camera. Yeah. That scene.)
You're then told when hiding in a side room that you cannot fight this assassin sent to kill the young king you're escorting out of the castle. (Isn't politics wonderful?) And it turns out that you do have to face him! And he completely outclasses your party.
Monster-Ock from the 2000 Spider-Man game didn't make it on either list. Being chased by that guy was nightmare fuel as a kid, especially after managing to defeat both Doc-Ock and Carnage
Yeah, especially since I remember playing the game as a 6 year old and infinitely struggling to run around the vents!
Bro I never got away from that fucker. Still have never beat that game.
So many attempts ended by Spidey deciding to stick to the wrong wall while I'm swinging for my life.
Wambu talks about that
"All right, you boy! DIE!"
8-year old me: NOPE! NOPE! NOPE! NOPE! NOPE! SO MUCH NOPE!
Ellen calling Luke scum for the tea made me proper laugh, also her jacket ruled. And thank you for including Alice: Madness Returns, that guy did my absolute head in
I've been supporting him via Patreon for the 3rd game/ prequel for a few years now. I've got some extremely cool limited edition posters, necklace, coin, dog tags and Alice's rabbit doll plushie. Excited for the next game!
If you're going to make another one of these videos or maybe a "commenter edition", I'd love to see the Dahaka from Prince of Persia Warrior Within.
It was absolutely terrifying parkouring away from that relentless tentacle time minotaur thing.
You Can technically fight it, but it's only at the very end of the game, in an alternate ending, and not something most players will find during their first playthrough, so I think it counts!
Exactly what I was thinking... The dahaka chases were and always will be terrifying whenever I play it
Well in the first one of these they did they included the snake from Sekiro, which could be killed in the third encounter with it. So if that counts then so should The Dahaka. I'm surprised they didn't include that one, I'm even more surprised that they haven't included The Lich King from The Halls of Reflection in WoW.
Loved the little addition of Tremors by Ellen. That movie doesn't get nearly enough love.
It got several sequels and tv series
There was also a sandworm in Beetlejuice, but it was a silly claymation looking thing.
In resident evil code veronica when Steve transforms into a boss monster all Claire can do is run from him while he tries to attack her with an axe, make sure to bring some healing items because he probably will a few times.
And that axe hurts!
"You know when you turn a light off and then you have to run up the stairs or down the corridor and you only feel midly safe once you've slammed your bedroom door shut because there might be something running after you?"
Bad roommates, Ellen? Or just especially mean pets?
I have a cat that has been known to chase and terrorize roommates.
I know the feeling, there is nothing behind me but I just have this innate instinct to run towards the light to safety.
Honestly its a feeling of fight or flight there isn’t anything behind you (hopefully not) but you just have the urge that instinct to run the fuck away
I have another one, from World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King. In the dungeon Halls of Reflection, the last boss is the Light King himself and you have to run away from him while he throws undead minions at you and blocks your way with walls of ice. He walks really slow, (kind of like Darth Vader) but he has a aura of frost around him that will slow you if you get too close, and if you get even closer you just instantly die. The object is to kill all the minions he throws at you while protecting an NPC (Sylvanas for Horde, Jaina for Alliance) while they try to break down each ice wall that blocks your path until you reach the outside and a ship comes to save you... barely.
Man - broken knees, a run-in with the C-Virus, getting into knife fights with skeletons, all in one year - and still carrying on with hardly a flinch.
Are we sure Luke isn't secretly a Terminator?
Don't forget getting his insides melted by a spicy jellybean.
@@callumdonington2227 well it's probably that each of those things was a different clone
Have you talked about the World of Warcraft Wrath of the Lich King dungeon: Halls of Reflection?
The final boss in that dungeon is you running the hell away from the Lich King himself!
Came here to say the same thing.
With related achievement "we're not retreating, were advancing in another direction." Or similar wording, it's been a while since I've looked at it.
I was looking for this comment and was not disappointed
"E.M.M.I. - Enemy from the Metroid series that looks like Glados (Portal series) and Demogorgon (Stranger Things) - What would you like to nick-name this character?" "...the Gladosgorgon!"
DemoGLaDOS?
I really appreciated that in Jedi: Fallen Order that they made Darth Vader as super powerful as they did. It would have been easy to go down the normal video game route of letting us the hero beat the big bad no matter how powerful he is.
How did I know we'd be revisiting Ellen's latest Fear Academy challenge with this video? Oh, Andy...
The one I will never forget is the Dahaka from Prince of Persia: Warrior Within. Yes, I know he's the secret final boss, but still. I first played the game when I was like 12 or 13 and I shit (shat? shitted?) my pants back then when I encountered him the first time.
In Paper Mario 1, when you initially encounter the Chapter 3 boss Tubba Blubba, you cannot damage him as he is without his heart (which he acquires later on), so whenever you battle him in his castle, you have to run from him.
Yes! Terrifying as a child. A great part of an excellent game.
Yup, I love seeing the Executioner, from Alice: Madness Returns, getting wasted by Alice. I know it’s bloody, but I can’t stop fricken laughing, every time I see that scene.😂😂😂

Back in 2019... Wow, good times..
No kidding. God bless video games.
Strangely the death of Songbird is one of the most poignant moments of the entire game
There was the giant Spider Metalhead from Jak 3 that chased Daxter. A combination of things I hate. Being trapped in an enclosed space, having a giant boulder rolling after me indiana jones style, and finding out that the giant boulder in question is actually a massive spider egg.
That wasn’t a metalhead and that was Jak 2
That bit Ellen did about Thomas the tank engine and Percy and gordon....amazing. I'm old, so that hit me very funny.
After watching Luke’s intro this came to my head-
Me in 2019: surely 2020 would be better
Me in 2020: Oh!
Me in 2021: Surely now. *Omicron Rising* ughh 2022 then. Right?!?
Some giant asteroid: Hi.
Where's that buggs bunny meme when you need it?
Twenty-twenty... _TWO!_ Son of Twenty-Twenty!
Thank you Covid for being a FLARKING PIECE OF SCUT!!!!!!!
me in 2023: oh hi cthulu.
Ellen says “walking through a secret passageway lined with glassy-eyes dolls” like we haven’t all been there.
It would be cool to see “Bosses that used your teammates as allies”
or "bosses that USED to be playable allies." Being betrayed by Norah in Child of Light was the last time I voluntarily levelled up playable allies without doing a cursory wiki search first
Does the dark lord from miitopia stealing your party's faces to put on his imps count?
@@ghostbean7582 Yes, that was one of the boss fights I was thinking of when making this comment
Asriel and the Lost Souls comes to mind for me
Void from Kirby: Star Allies comes to mind, one of it's attacks is turning your allies against you if you have some
“Did I imagine the caterpillar getting high” is a top quality kind
I have never actually been caught by the nightmare fetus at the end waiting for the lift by just standing by the door looking at him and just holding the button to walk into the lift when the door opens
Fallen Order has got to be the most accurate representation of Vader in any video game to date
I don’t know if this was mentioned before, but one of the first bosses that came to mind was Balrog from Street Fighter x Mega Man. Balrog had a health bar, but he also kept spamming his super move which constantly kept moving him forward. The idea was that you had to outrun him until you got far enough to where he would hurl himself into a bottomless pit.
The executioner is actually a bit of a breakthrough. It proves that the enemies aren’t brainless killers, just insane citizens who can read a situation
To be fair, ALL of Ori's bosses you need to run from to the point that I am surprised both games didn't fill up the list
Not entirely in the Will of the Wisps. In the first one yes, in the second Ori fights back
@@kademelien9363 You still run from most of them first, though. Only Horn Beetle and Willow Stone are fought without chase sequences iirc.
And you technically don't even fight the Foul Spirit at all. Kwolok kills it for you
@@aardbei54 I never stated otherwise. Just wanted to correct the inital comment, that you need to run from all of them. At it's false that you can only run from them, till after the chase sequence there is a battle against most of the bosses (in the second one at least)
@@kademelien9363 I appreciate your comment and need to correct me, but I will like to point out that I did not state that you can ONLY run from the major bosses. I said that running away from bosses is a major mechanic in the games
perfect timing! A few hours ago I found myself running away from such a boss:
the Leech man in the "The Hive" scenario of Resident Evil Outbreak
I "ran" from most bosses in FFXV. In that I performed a warp-strike to a high up place and let Noctis' crew handle things. I will say that doing this gave a funny result. Gladio always continued to fight, even if Noctis wasn't there. Prompto often died early, too busy shooting rather slow and his AI trying to run back to Noctis. And Ignis was much the same, but Ignis would run after Noctis the most. Ignis' entire role was to serve the prince so I found it interesting that even in the heat of battle, his actions are to stick close to Noctis. Most of the bosses have an attack that knock you down from the wall, so you can't stay there too long without at least moving around for a moment, and the moment you're back on ground, Gladio stays fighting, Prompto will continue to shoot but he's tripping over himself and stuff, but Ignis instantly goes to Noctis' side. How precious :)
Fallen Order: Everybody gangsta until the fog started having asthma
Kikimore Queen from the first Witcher game. I was all ready to fight her, but all she doe sis one-hit kill you so you have to run away and collapse a tunnel on her
I play a game called Fire Emblem Heroes, and there aren’t exactly bosses, but units in certain maps that have a skill that makes it so you can’t damage them at all, no matter how strong you are. You just have to run around the map defeating the other enemies and hope at least one of you survives the required turns to advance in the story
Surtr counts as enough of a boss that he could be used for this list. Add in his AOE 20 hp damage if you DARE get within range, and...yeah.
12:40 that was the funniest part of the game for me, just him dropping his scythe at the realization he was going to die
Vader in fallen order was perfectly used. Powerful, terrifying and not overused.
In Final Fantasy 4: The After Year, you can't kill the main antagonist. After running from the initial fight with him, you will randomly encounter him throughout your escape from his spaceship. All you can do is damage him enough that you have a chance to run away again. Fortunately, he does most of the work for you with highly self-destructive attacks. In the end, his spaceship exploding is what actually kills him.
No Monster Ock from the PS1 Spiderman?! That is basically one definition of a boss you gotta run from after your fight with Carnage the bloody red Symbiote the red alien leaves Cletus Cassidy and attaches to Doc Ock and turns him into Monster Ock and in the final Senario of the game you gotta run(Web Swing) away from him while the Facility you are in begins to meltdown and begin exploding if Monster Ock Catches you then its game over
Honestly, one of these bosses that gave me palpitations as a child was the Dahaka from Prince of Persia: Warrior Within. He was relentless in trying to catch you. To be fair, he's meant to because you're deliberately screwing around with the pre-determined timeline, so it's just his job to fix it...and you.
Loving how the Executioner drops his scythe when Alice gets big, literally saying “GAME OVER” with his reaction there.
I know you can only have one Metroid game per list, but a better example would’ve been SA-X from Metroid Fusion. It’s literally you, but evil.
The Executioner from Alice: Madness Returns is the number one
for me .. the sheer anxiety attack inducing desperate flight was
so well done, especially because of the camera position it still
gives me cold shivers to this day. :)
It was very cathartic to stomp it into bloody paté. Afterwards it took
more than twenty minutes before I could convince my poor heart
to crawl back into its proper position. :)
That game is awesome.

The one boss you could only run away from that I remember the most is Smaug in the level, Greatest Kingdom of Middle Earth in LEGO The Hobbit because as you are playing the small dwarves of the Lonely Mountain, you see two yellow eyes in smoke chasing you and breaking down doors.
Another good one is The Monster of the Gate from Nameless Cat, or the "Red Thing." Out of the three bosses you fight in the game, this is the only one that you have no way to fight back against. You just have to hope you can time the jumps right with your kitty's lil stubby legs before this giant red beast catches up to you. There's no way you can hide, either, since the thing destroys everything in its path to get to you. Even if you do manage to avoid its huge, chomping jaw as it misses you, you'll be insta-killed the second the creatures jaw passes you in the chase. If you meet with its jaws, same story. You get respawned back at the beginning of the chase. Brutal. You only find safety when you can spirit your way into a cross using your special ability.
I think Goose from Nier Replicant also counts... kind of. You can't kill it yourself and the only option is to run, but it has no instakill mechanics other than in the staircase sequence.
It does get killed eventually, just... not by you or your party members.
How have you not mentioned the Ultimate Being from classic Squaresoft game Parasite Eve?
You initially fight the Being on the deck of a US Navy Destroyer as it goes through all the stages of life from infant to middle aged adult, before Aya realizes that even with the special Plot Ammunition you get at the end of the fight, she still isn't going to be able to kill it. What follows is a chase through the bowels of the ship to find the boiler room where she sets the pressure to overload in order to finally kill it. This chase is especially harrowing because even though it doesn't move terribly quickly _it doesn't stop while you are in a menu._ If you wish to pause to collect your thoughts or your nerves... game over.
Bonus entry: if you stop to use the save point that you find in the room immediately after the fight and when the actual chase starts... it _will_ catch you before you can finish saving your game and you have to progress through the fight all over again.
This boss ticks the "times you had to fight a nightmare baby", "bosses you can only run away from", and "times a save point tried to kill you" boxes all at once.
Again, not sure if this one counts, but Bendy from Bendy and the Ink Machine. He's unkillable in Chapters 1 through 4, and chases you relentlessly in chapters 2 and 3. Your only option? Run until you find a Little Miracle Station to hid in, because there's no fancy animation, no warning, no death screen if Bendy catches you. If he touches you, you die.
"Back in 2019...wow, good times..."
With each passing year, this intro joke gets better and better.
That's such an awesome moment in the Alice game when it gawps at your new stature and how cool is that thing's design as well.

@@kyleshaw5186 done a wonderful job with the first two! Enough so that I find one of the levels actually quite difficult to get through just due to some of the decoration in it. You don't get that kind of emotional reaction to many games.
First boss I think of when I hear "can only run from" is the Carnage Doc Ock hybrid from Spiderman Ps1
As oddly obscure as that game seems to be these days, I also almost always flash back to my childhood memories of having to run from that monstrosity! Good choice
The Dahaka in Prince of Persia: Warrior within. That dude had me panicking. It was the first enemy of that sort that I ever had to face, and it was a very memorable experience
Who the F makes tea with less than hotter than the core of the sun, T-1000 ending, One Ring destroying, water? What an absolute monster!
Spider-Man 2000 N64
The final boss is Carnage attached to Doctor Octopus and all you can do is try to escape it. Which is weird considering the rest of the game has you overcoming really difficult bosses by defeating them in combat.
Agreed, especially with his creepy screaming of "Die!" when he catches you...
"A giant nightmare foetus screaming a wet goodbye through the shutter doors" is maybe the weirdest sentence to ever come from this channel, and there've been some corkers. It could also be the title of a standalone game in the vein of "I have no mouth and i must scream", or an extremely unpleasant avant garde film.
"Back in 2019... wow, good times." I know, man. I feel you.
The Giant Troll from Castle Crashers. First time, you're forced to run from him on the back of a deer, second time, you're on the back of a carriage, and can fight back.
Does Mr Oshiro from Celeste count as a boss? Because damn, hot damn, did that chase sequence kill me multiple times.
Only multiple times? Those are rookie numbers.
How could you leave out Beetlejuice on a list of giant sand worms?
gotta love how luke calmly goes "shut up" in the video. gotta love that. 3:42
The fetus is a manifestation of Ethan's fear of fatherhood, and a vibe that screams PT makes me feel like RE:VIllage was trying to pull a Silent Hill
Except the p.t. fetus can’t kill you by eating you whole feet first 😰 due to being far closer to a baby’s size if born healthy and full term like they should be as well as being stuck in the sink
Just watched the original version six hours ago. Are you stalking me like one of these bosses?
There was an amazing Spiderman game on the Sega Genesis that for some unknown reason had a giant gorilla that you had to run from for most of the level
"Big horrible beaky worm-thing." Well said.😂 👍
I can name 2 more.
1. In max and the curse of brotherhood, at the start of the game, the first monster you see, you end up running from it most of the game.
2. In crash bandicoot 4: it's about time
In the second level, you run from a mask guardian until he drops a bunch of boulders separating you from the guardian.
How's about Zorn from Remember Me? A hulking robot that chases after you once you break free from prison, without any skills or weapons from having your memories wiped all you can do is hightail it out of there. At least you get your sweet revenge on your early game tormentor later on by shooting it's power core while it is immobilized for repairs.
Oh man someone else who remembers Remember Me!
Also yes, that first chase is a bitch. The forced camera perspective that has you blindly running away, especially at the beginning of the game, got me almost to the point where I didn't want to keep playing.
Interesting that Remember Me had a couple chase boss fights, because later there is the entire level that is just running away from a guard in an airship that wants nothing more than to turn Nillin into swiss cheese.
@@jodinsan Oh yeah, I remember him. Wouldn't consider the captain a chase as you're really dodging until you can give the jump, but good callout.
Since the original video on this topic came out 2 years ago.
Does that mean Ellen and Luke have been running from their bosses for 2 YEARS!🤔
"The lore demands you run, you coward."
Call me what you want, if Darth Vader himself is coming at me with a lit lightsaber, I'm going to be pissing myself while I try and do an Usain Bolt impression.
That Ori music. *kisses fingers* it was amazing to play that game and to hear it again, brings shivers down my spine
Thank you so much for talking about _Alice: Madness Returns_ . I love the Alice series and am looking forward to the third game.

@@kyleshaw5186 but is it happening? Because I read that EA haven't accepted the project yet, and there's no pilot, etc.
What about Goose from Nier:Replicant ver. 1.22. At first it seems like a pretty normal and straightforward boss but get its health low enough and it develops iron armor and a pension for endlessly regenerate itself.
The werewolf in Vampire The masquerade: Bloodlines. Sure, you can trap him in the observatory window, but honestly, you have no way of knowing you can do that unless you read it online. And then it's a bunch of flailing around, trying to survive until the clock runs out, which is surprisingly hard.
Gris is an excellent beautiful game and basically you're running from all the bosses!! But the big chase scene is the giant eel during the water level.
How about the first boss in the first Dark Souls. You know, the asylum demon?
The first time you try to fight it, you need to run away because you're only armed with a sword hilt. Second time around, however, you gotta kill it.
Although difficult and time consuming you can kill him the 1st time you encounter him.
You can kill him pretty easy with firebombs.
@@wimfranken826 Yeah. I know. I've tried to kill that thing with a hilt before, but every time I tried, I would end up dying. As a result, I decided to find other means of escape from it and found an iron door that I went through and progressed like normal.
there's also giant sandworms in the final fantasies.... everyone has dune tributes it's almost mandatory.
FF8 second boss the mechanical monstrosity.
Yep. Even in the Free-to-Play game Warframe features some in one of its cinematic quests: The Ravenous Golden Maw (Or as I also reffered to it upon first seeing it, Graboid Prime since it doubles as a Tremors Reference)
My wife shouted "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" from across the basement then said "Why is the baby in all their videos lately!"
Clearly I wasn't the only one scarred.
You wasn’t still genuinely get chills hearing a baby cry because of the resi baby sounding far too realistic 😰😨😰😨

… Lukewarm?
i found you recently, actually it was today, and you are my new favorite youtuber
That pause on the intro was absolutely perfect.
I'm glad that they did Vader how they did. "No, you don't understand. You might be a badass, but he's several orders of magnitude more badass than you. You don't stand a chance. He is perhaps the third or fourth most powerful force-user in history. You? You're... average for a jedi."
