Hellblade is such an important game to me. The lie of the "permadeath" I believed my first play through. The end fight being unwinnable didn't stop me from trying my hardest.
👌🏼
@LAKEHUNTIST🇷🇺[Z] still, no.
Wahhh?! Really? I never died. But yes it was stressful. Never knew it wasn't true
@@VAL3NTIN3 You have to died. At least once. So something wrong over there.
Yes, the end was an emotional shotgun to the chest.
Man, that crash during the Scare Crow part of Arkham Asylum nearly gave me a heart attack.
@LAKEHUNTIST🇷🇺[Z] nah, reported.
Me too. I was like, "GAME STOPPPPPPP!!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬.... oh, okey"
I rented the game when it came out, and it made me think I got a bad copy so I returned it. Oof
Same first time I played I was like yell wtf at my tv hahaha
Yup I thought it was real, back then I didn’t have money to buy games so my Xbox was modded and it would frequently crash on some games, so it wasn’t uncommon that a game would crash in a similar way. Totally surprised me that it was a programmed sequence
What really got me about Hellblade, was when playing with headphones it gave me such a sense of anxiety playing throughout the game because I constantly heard her inner voices coming from every direction. I applaud Ninja Theory for making this game with spatial surround recording and having to consult real Psychologists and people who really suffer from that mental illness, just the whole process they went through to make this game feel authentic. Can't wait for the sequel, the gameplay trailer for Senua's Saga looked amazing!
Control actually has this one also. If you play in headphones and there are enemies nearby or some other bad stuff you getting a barrage of mysterious voices in your ears. Mostly it’s nonsense but sometimes they say some unsettling crap
@@user-cc4se5jp6c Thanks for reminding me I need to beat Control. I was playing it on PS4 when I got it on PS Plus but I got to a part that was literally running at like 15fps and kept dying from the stuttering. I have it on PC now and really need to complete the game as I was having lots of fun with it on PS4.
I might be weird here, but I actually found the voices rather helpful. Especially in combat, when they warn you about an enemy behind your back.
Yea and control along with hellblade are two of my most fav games .... The sound design in hellblade with the constant voices trying question or justify senuas decisions and her actions .... It's meant to be played with headphones..... It's stresses you out but also helps us understand what senua Is going through ..... It's been a while I've played both control and hellblade but I would totally once again experience playing them both ..... The final sequence the final battle is enough for me to get back to playing hellblade and I still remember the ashtray maze part from control encountering it for the first time with take control playing in the BG .... Man that has to be the most awesome I've had after completing a sequence..... Both games are masterpieces when it comes to sound design....
kina virus released to fk up the elections...millions dead, billion+ with heart issues...evil know no bounds...Godless people will always create hell !!!
Lmfao Falcons passive aggressive “DONT DO LIFE ON SOMEONE ELSES TIMELIIIINE” had me dying, have been especially loving his commentary in recent months lol
Thanks -falcon
I read your comment just as Falcon said those exact words. 😁
@@gameranxTV good to quote falcon, I would cancel anybody that said thanks but Falcon
@@Elwaves2925 This happens to me so unbelievably often that it almost feels like a sort of superpower ...like, the dumbest superpower in the world.
In Amnesia: The Dark Descent, losing your sanity doesn't actually make it easier for monsters to find you, the in-game tip that says so is a deliberate lie meant to stress you out!
Yeah, the romance is gone if you uncover the tricks of the developers.^^
The Stanley Parable ending where it gives a count down in a room full of buttons, making it seem like it’s possible to stop the countdown, is diabolical and i probably went back 3 times before it sunk in.
I wish I could play hellblade for the first time again. Me and my friend took turns playing that game and we hadn't played games together in 10 years but he thought it looked cool so we passed the controller back and forth every half hour and had so much fun figuring out the illusion sections. The permadeath function had us worried the whole time too. Great game.
👌🏼
U had a friend to play hellblade with ?? I played it alone .... And no friend of mine would understand or even try to understand a game like hellblade they like multiplayer shooters ur lucky to have shared the experience of playing hellblade
Would love to see 10 games that where way ahead of there time.
Thanks for your suggestion. Noted
@LAKEHUNTIST🇷🇺[Z] hard pass
*their
That's a good idea for sure.
Arkham Knight has to be there
Hellblade is the only game I have ever played with such skill that I didn't "die" until the end. Even with that the rot still grew up her arm, which made the game even more stressful. All this to find out it didn't matter........wonderful.
I'll say this before watching the video. Amenia: The Dark decent had me so scared of being in the dark too long because of the whole insanity meter thing. I didn't know what would happen if it go too low but I was too scared to find out
@A Smile Never heard of Amenia The Dark Decent.
Is that about a respectable black guy named Amenia?
@@nolanreyes9712 I ment Amnesia
@@nolanreyes9712 no i think its about a country in asia
@MmmMongoose iii System of a Down's country? Yeah that would make sense. Their lyrics have always been dark and decent.
hellblade is a must try game, it's super freaky yet cool at same time. I am pretty hyped up for the sequel though
Hellblade's big battle at the end with that AMAZINGLY intense music where you can't fight forever and NEED to lose... THAT was stressful until you figure out what the furies are telling you... and that you actually NEED to accept what they say.
I remember my first play through in RDR2 after the Hosea bear hunt I decided to hunt all of the reachable legendary animals at once. I got all the ones I could minus the Moose and Elk considering I could only carry one big pelt at a time, but on the way to the trapper I got ambushed by a Murfreesboro brood shotgun guy and died and I thought that I would lose all of those pelts. I didn't know that if you die with legendary pelts they are like automatically given to the trapper. Luckily I found this out before I restarted and had to play through that whole snow chapter lol. Needless to say for about 5 minutes I was freaking out.
😅
Surprised not to see Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem on the list. If there ever was a game that constantly tricked the player in clever ways, this would be it. It would randomly pretend to delete your save file while you try to save, make it look like the tv turned off, mute the volume, give you all kinds of ammo just to reveal it was a hallucination, suddenly make the character die or lose limbs etc. Really creative stuff.
Hear hear
yeah... i don’t even know how you could do that kind of stuff anymore, since so many people would be privy to the bits.
Such an underated game... I played it tripping balls and was freaking out...
Yes, commented the same! Don’t forget the “fatal error” blue screen.
@@darkatthecore lol yeah that would be intense. I still remember playing uncharted 3 when I was candy flippin (X+L). It's been 11 years now, and I'll never forget that underwater part when you're running from the oncoming water... or the parachute part. Good times.
Yours though, that sounds terrifying lol
In Halo infinite the story mode there is a small section where they say something about the flood and proceed to not give you any enemies just empty foggy rooms. It drove me nuts cuz I thought they returned and I was sweating
I never knew about that RE4 dynamic difficulty. Mqybe that's one of the reasons why it is the beat in the series. Thanks!
I'm pretty sure it's also been used in most if not all of the games after too.
For Hollow Knight, I thought you were gonna mention how when you first meet the Hunter, and subsequently when you go back to him again after completing the journal he gives you, the game makes it seem like you're about to have a boss fight.... except you dont.
👍🏼 part 2
I genuinely think that this would be a stress moment, in a game called blue dragon, there is a part of the game where you have to save one of your companions from a “bomb” and there is a timer on the top left of your screen and you have to go through trials and tons of enemies in order to do so, but then in the end, it wasn’t a bomb at all, idk just thought of that as one
Surprised you guys didn't mention the dark part of the museum in The Last of Us Part II.
Where the developers intentionally put gameplay items (ammo, throwables, crafting) in a story segment where, up to that moment, hasn't had any gameplay items, in a slow, tense buildup moment in the dark to basically psyche out the player into thinking that a genuine combat moment is about to start, only for it just be an animal, and a cutscene follows where the story segment ends, lol
Part 2 👍🏼
That sounds brilliant
Senuas sacrifice. What a game. One of the best opening sequences ever. In my opinion it rivals the reveal of rapture in bioshock.
Outlast 1 & 2, didn’t exactly “trick” me into being stressed out, but those games are sweaty palms personified lol
😅
@@gameranxTV 😅
Just try Madison and Outlast will be a walk in the park. Hands down the most scary horror game I’ve ever played.
Slapping the Banker around in Hollow Knight is so satisfying XD Especially because of those funny noises he makes.
The timer on Knoxx's armory didn't stress people because they wanted to avoid dying, it stressed them because they wanted to loot everything before the armory exploded. Then we figured out how to glitch it.
Similarly to Undertale (in the sense that it is an indie RPG), in the game OMORI there is a really infamous moment where the game "tricks" you in to cutting open your cat (in a fictional setting). It tortures you by making you repeatedly say "Yes" to the prompt. It does not give any indication that is not required, but it turns out that you can escape the situation via stabbing yourself (again, in the fictional setting). Ultimately you have to stab yourself to progress. So essentially, it's either you and the cat or just you. I know this sounds weird, but it makes more sense when you have the full context.
I never knew or heard about anything to do with the banker being shady😂, it just never seemed convenient to use him since defeating the shade is never too difficult
😅
If you die before reaching the first shade, you'll leave another and the first vanishes for eternity.
Playing hellbalde at night tripped me out felt like ppl we're watching my back the whole time lol
Remember in Breath of the Wild where you thought night of the Blood Moon was a big deal and made you scared to go out at night in the game but all it does is respawns all the previous enemies you killed and all the loot in the world
Love this channel it is one of the best gaming channels on TH-cam ever. Keep up the good work team and thanks for the memories 🤟
Suggestion for Part 2 - Animal Crossing on the GameCube.. Resetti literally fake shutting your game off for forgetting to save. He threatens you repeatedly for forgetting to save, and then he eventually says your game is getting deleted and shuts the screen black. I have NEVER been so stressed playing a game in my life😅
Resetti is such a shitty character and mechanic. :/ Like yeah, I get you don't want people to cheat (neither do I), but if the power goes out, you don't got much choice. That actually made me put down the game for good, because we had a couple of brownouts in a couple of weeks and his constant harassment about something I had no control over really soured me on it.
@@KainYusanagi I absolutely agree and I’m sorry you and I had a similar negative experience. I had a younger brother who would shut off my console all the time at random - so once Resetti pulled the whole blackout thing, I never touched Animal Crossing for the GameCube again. It’s disappointing.
I’m surprised that Bioshock Infinite didn’t make the list.
When the bird monster was destroying the tower and you have to escape.
It seems like the escape sequence of any other game where you have to get out in time, but NOPE. It doesn’t matter how long you sit around, the giant bird can’t actually get you, and the tower is never actually destroyed until you eventually leave.
First one that comes to mind is Stanley Parable: in one of the endings, a bomb is about to go off and you have a short time period to solve a puzzle in order to stop the bomb. It turns out the puzzle is unsolvable, regardless of what you do, and the bomb will always explode.
In Pathologic 2 the game tells you that each time you die, your health bar will be decreased a little. The game actually does it, even if you load a past save game, which puts you on edge, doing everything to not die during the entire game.
Ni no kuni had a fake time limit too during the old smokey dungeon. At the end your partner just outright says it wasn't timed and just wanted to get there quicker.
its funny that sometimes the smaller seemingly less morally bad things you can do in games feel so much worse than like killing someone in a game, i think just because it feels that it is a more real situation?
5:31 i found the 1/2 magic thing back pre-internet era. all on my own. i was so stressed about it the whole time i played the game before i realized what actually happened. i still think it was perfectly done and couldnt be mimicked in modern games nowadays. because everyone has constant access to the internet and every single detail of every game is available before a game ever launches nowadays. love it.
Hearing the voices constantly in HellBlade was incredibly stressful. I was nervous for the entirety of my playthrough
Metal gear solid, fight with psycho mantis. I thought my video cable came out. Freaked me out!
Hellblade was simulating paranoia with that trick. Not a real lie, that's what paranoia feels like!
How could you forget the whole Cursed humans section in Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune? It literally came out of nowhere with absolutely no premonition or preparation. I got so freaked out by that section, because until then I was playing a fun third person action game. I was one of the people who bought the game the week it was released and wasn’t prepared at all.
Undertale got me so close to the edge after 3 or 4 times that a silly silly thing got me in trouble, I've became paranoid. Love this game 10/10 (also this video, thx Gameranx)
Fun note about the borderlands general knoxx stash: way back when the DLC was released (and it may have been patched since then, idk), there was a glitch to get inside the vault without setting off the timer. Trusting you dont try to leave through the appropriate doors you could get all the loot, quit, then reload, and loot it all again via the glitch, either for wanting to get more and more new guns or just as a quick cash grab if you're broke. Before new game+ I had a character that looted the stash a total of 382 times. Still got crap. RNG is not so easy to manipulate :P
Damn, I quit hellblade bc the rot was going up so much even though I very rarely died, felt like one mistake would make me have to redo everything. Wasn’t enjoying the game enough to redo all those puzzles but would’ve finished it if it didn’t seem like that would be inevitable.
I wonder how many others quit bc getting the ending didn’t seem worth going through all those puzzles and super slow walking sections again.
I read about the "save file deletion if you die too many times" part and thought, "im not that great at games like this, so i will likely have my progress wiped a few times" So I just didn't buy the game.
Then I'd say Ninja Theory did their job right, in a way. They wanted to pass on the experience of mental health issues; now think about how many people "quit because getting the ending didn't seem worth it"...
@@PrincessWesker Your right that it worked, but how many people didn't buy it because they heard of this? I only own it because I got it in a humble bundle. I was going to buy on release. Hopefully they still made their money on it.
Supposedly the dragon rot mechanic in Sekiro got majorly nerfed before release and was originally supposed to be a much more serious thing, but in its release implementation, it indeed isn't a big deal.
It's baffling how much genuinely good and entertaining content you guys consistently pump out
I love Psychonauts 2! I was so stressed about finishing the cooking contest on time omg!😂
😆
I want to add one more thing to your list. A game that stresses you out: almost every level in crash bandicoot 1! Don’t misunderstand me, the game is great but man sometimes it makes you want to pull your hair out lol 😂
😅
The final Mysterio fight in the Spider-Man 2 video game. His health bar fills up like 3 times, yet he goes down with one punch! Classic troll.
I actually didn't know about the hellblade permadeath lie which actually makes me appreciate the game way more than I already do
What a crazy idea for a video. And crazier that you came up with that many (ANY!) instances of it happening. And even crazier what some of those instances are.
There was an urban legend among my group of friends about Turbo Tunnel (Battletoads for Nes). We really believed that if we die a lot there, the game would slow the thing down a little bit, because the Father of that one guy read it on a magazine from the US (I'm from Brazil).
All lies of course, but I think we antecipated the dinamic difficulty thing for about two decades lol
Firstly I like the hollow knight mention I recently got it and it's a great game! Secondly Dragon rot was a very stressful thing for me on my first playthrough of sekiro
In the Spider-Man 2 video game for the PlayStation 2 the build up for Mysterios boss fight was big. Earlier in the game he summoned aliens and holograms, a giant UFO that had encased the Statue of Liberty and even a wacky funhouse of doom with mirror copies of you that you had to fight.
When I finally caught up to him and saw his huge health bar go up three times I expected him to be a tough boss that warped reality with his illusions only to have him go down with one hit. At the time I was so nervous about the fight I completely ignored where we were (which was a random convenience store) and walked around the store first thinking of what I should plan for. They got me good.
The lie of Permadeath added the to Paranoia of Senua and me the player. Such an amazing experience I cannot wait for the next one to come out.
👌
Def a clever move. Most games punish for little basic things. Where this game tells you are punished on a massive scale but really they jk
The original StarCraft. The Protoss mission where you destroy a nexus in the center of the enemy encampment and then Aldaris says he has an entire legion to stop you. Then Zeratul shows up - but he’s ground based so without help the DT will be slaughtered. So you’re thinking: okay, have to restart. Nope, it’s the end of the mission.
Ghostwire: Tokyo, when I thought I'd have to fight that entire freaky parade, and instead just got teleported to an "defeat x waves in an arena" situation.
....I have completed the armory of general knoxx on both PS3 and PS4 and I just now realized this. Well played.
I had no idea about Hellblade that was a ruse. I played it and died like 3 times really early in the game, then I just quit playing because I didn’t want to sink 20+ hours just to die to some BS and lose all that time.
I think I’m going to go back to it now.
👌🏼
Exactly! The permadeath made me not wanna play anymore.
This was made to make you feel like mental sick person, fearing of something which when in reality this fear is just in your mind
@@goodmanpatryk7155 I understand that. However, in reality, we have to balance our time playing games with the rest of our lives. I didn't see enough in the game to run the risk of losing all of my progress after committing time to learn the game and advance. It looks like a great game, which I never deleted. Now that I know progress won't be lost, I can give it another chance.
Also for what it's worth, Hellblade is actually a very short game! It's about an 8 hour long experience
Best part of my day. Thank you team.
Woo 😍
Dragon Rot in Sekiro actually does have a worse effect than just disabling merchants.
When you die, you lose half your money and xp, but there is a chance this won't happen with "unseen aid." The more dragon rot you have, the lower this chance becomes.
I haven't played Hellblade, and the chances of me ever playing or low, but I wish I didn't know about that mechanic just in case I ever do play it. Having that stress I imagine is a huge part of the experience.
The sanity effects in eternal darkness always seems to fly under the radar on list videos, from the classic BSOD to suddenly having your head fly off
Great content, keep making more 😎
I didn’t know this about hellblade. That game is so good.
I think Skyrim should be here. U do the work lol. It's there tho. Video 2 commence. Good stuff as alwayss. Cheers
I've never played far into Starship Titanic but my sister has. And she says there's a part where a robot counts down to self-destruct the entire ship, but loses count along the way. Which she says was one of the most hilarious parts of that game.
One moment that stressed me is the first boss fight in ghost of Tsushima where when i died and jin was kicked off the bridge i thought i died and had to restart the fight but then i realized that it was intended for jin to loose lol
Drowning in Sonic is the most stressful thing I've ever encountered. Pretty sure all my anxiety in life started there.
I just played the Psychonauts 2...stressing about beating that on time.
I'd like a list of "games where your character doesn't get stronger, you just get better"
Such a unique and interesting topic! Keep up the good work Gameranx
I usually lose money in the "Pleasure House". First time I've seen someone walk out with more than they entered lol
The scarecrow part from Arkham probably scared and stressed everyone out. Also I never knew that about Shenmue 2 but then again I haven't played Shenmue 2 since it first came out.
I never knew that borderlands fact. You know how anxious i get trying to get outta the vault?
The Witcher 3 when I thought ciri was dead and I did something wrong 😭
The hidden dynamic in re4 makes it even more of a gem
Metroid Fusion. "EMERGENCY IN SECTOR 3!"
The bomb in Starship Titanic (voiced by John Cleese) never actually goes off, but it's always in the back of your mind as you progress through the game. You can even reset the countdown at any time by interrupting the bomb's AI.
the game that stressed me out by tricking me...though more my own was FFIV the final boss has an attack black hole that removes all bufs, BUT the way it was worded in origina, I thought it meant I couldn't cast any spells so tried to beat him without heals or such hehe.
Number 9, i had a feeling with Mortal Kombat X having dynamic difficulties although you could decide to play it on easy/normal/hard. It was like i fight vs. some dude who stomps me down 2-0/2-0 the first few tries within seconds and after attempting the 3rd or 4th try he/she barely used his/her combos and special moves in such a well timed manner. I really got confused, and i can add that i really didn't got a lot better within this 10 minutes (played on normal).
Not sure if this qualifies, but I think when your boat crashed in Guarma (and also when it's Marston's turn to be used in the game) in RDR2. I really thought my satchel was lost forever and all my precious loot/money was gone.
Slapping the banker around reminded me of Spyro when you chase moneybags to get all your gems back lol
Haha
Awesome video guys, keep up the good work.
Will do. Thanks
I thought dot hack infection would be on this list for sure, fun video thank you.
2 bonus examples are Hades (2018) which made popular "you died and lost progress but you can do next run stronger". Rust is hades-like every month reseting worlds but researchs are permanent. The second example is For the king (2017) which is a rpg like at first glance until you notice the chaos bar is doing funny things to your world (makes exemies stronger, etc). Some mobs can steal your money and some boss smelt an armor piece with acid. Not for casual gamers.
Cool video idea, I would love to see mote of them ::)
I'm so mad that we have to wait till next year for Re4 remake. I want it now! 😂😂😂
I do not know the name of the game anymore, which is ashame. But I think 10-15 years ago there was a game on the iPhone which was a side scroller. You had to jump from big holes to get to the other end. If you failed, game was over and you were not aloud to try again. It was fun to speak with friend to which level you got, but it was stressfull :)
Alien: Isolation did this, too, where there are multiple parts that contain no possible threat, yet ramp up the intensity of the music to max, trigger alien vent-crawling noises all over, and/or set off some blaring alarm.
It doubles as a fake-out when you learn that in some of those scenarios, it is actually possible to face danger if certain conditions are met, so you might have learned that a particular event is safe only to be terrifyingly surprised on a subsequent playthrough.
Or when you play RE8 for the first few minutes. You go around collecting stuff for health, then werewolves appear and you run around panicking and using your items.. then find out you're supposed to almost die..
We definitely need another video like this, for the good of gamers
Great video as always
You guys should do a video on the scariest video games of all time
Damn that re4 dynamic difficulty is what made re4 what is was.. like I was constantly in survival mode no matter how many over the top weapons I had.. well played
Antichamber already fucks with your sanity and perception of space, and now you're telling me it fucks with time as well?
Alexander Bruce really is trying to make you go insane!
The top funny comment on Steam summarize Antichamber really well: "The game gave me two options. All three of them were wrong."
Thank you for adding Sekiro to this list, I have a friend who still believes dragon rot is worse than it is.
Anytime a game takes my gear and/or inventory. I think it was one of the Dragon Age games where you had to put all your gear in a chest. And of course, there was a bug where the game would fucking delete your gear so you might get soft-locked if you didn't have a previous save or have backup gear. I think one of the Witcher took your gear at one point too. I remember in Knights of the Old Republic, the water planet you went to had a sith base you had to infiltrate but if you didn't get certain evidence you could get locked into a point where the only dialogue option leads to you getting executed and ending your game. I was a kid so I only kept one save file so I had to replay the entire game. And it had taken me what felt like forever to finally get there because I didn't get understand how to effectively use the combat system.
In Breath of the Wild when the Demon statue outside of Hateno sucks away a heart, I freaked out.
In GOW 2018 There was a part where Atreus went ahead into the fog and Kratos lost sight of him. He paniked when Atreus yelled.
Senua is psychological game. Senua believes in fake things, like Gods. The story about the game was much more interesting for me than the game story itself :) The end fight can be endless and the first time i spent like 3 hours only fighting :)
I always thought the Hellblade "permadeath" fake out was yet more insight into mental illnesses (maybe schizophrenia? I'm not sure): the paranoid certainty that doom is so close and visible, but the whole time it's just in your head.
