Count your blessings that you're not as unlucky as this lot.

We all have those days, right? Your car won't start, there's no milk for your coffee, or you're that tired that you've accidentally worked on a day off.

What could possibly be worse than what you're going through right now?

Well, I'd imagine having an exoskeleton grafted onto your fully awake, totally conscious self somewhat beats that. Perhaps missing a bus isn't so bad compared to walking into a zombie apocalypse on your first day on the job.

Even outside of work can be a bad time. Like relaxing at the opera and everyone spontaneously combusting before the second act. How about a nice, leisurely stroll to be beach and messing with the laws of causality, space and time when you get there?

When you put it into that kind of perspective, having a milk-less coffee doesn't seem so bad, does it?

Unfortunately for the heroes in this list, they don't really get a choice. Some embrace it, thankfully, as their raison d'etre to crack on and get it done. However, there's a couple that will definitely let you know how they feel about it.

So count yourself lucky, and kick back as we look at ten examples of heroes who really got dropped in it.

10. Bloodborne

Imagine hearing of a city somewhat renowned for its healing practices that you seek it out. Chances are, you don't expect to rock up at the tail-end of a endemic that's reduced its inhabitants to a disease borne of nefarious practices.

You know the type, invoking old gods and the like. The ones that never end well.

That's not the worst of it, either. You're administered a blood transfusion, told it all might seem a bit weird and sent on your way to, y'know, sort it out.

And it's not a case of doing some routine exploration, getting down to brass tacks and sorting out what's what.

Giant beasts, zombie-like locals and disgusting spider bosses are only the half of it. You've got to discover the cause of these nightmares, take on a bevvy of old gods and not succumb to the same crazy blood rage.

And if you're lucky, you'll get your head chopped off at the end of it. Or become the new resident sh*tbag that sets the perpetual nature of events back into motion. Or become a squid baby!

Bad day to take a trip to Yharnam, it seems.
