10 Brutal Difficulty Spikes In Recent Video Games
9. Shindaerey Peak - Dishonored 2: Death Of The Outsider
Dishonored 2's standalone expansion, Death of the Outsider, purposely doesn't do much to change up the iconic series formula. There's still stealth, an array of supernatural powers, and some brilliant steampunk environments for you to blink and parkour your way through.
A big change comes with the last level, though. Having travelled all the way to Shindaerey Peak, Billie Lurk is one step away from her goal of killing the Outsider. There's just the small matter of an insane cult to deal with now.
This cult harbour a powerful relic known as the Eye of The Dead God, and their exposure to it gradually turns them into the Envisioned, stone-covered golems destined to wander the Void forever.
Once Billie interacts with the Eye herself, she is transported to the Void, where these creatures will proceed to give you absolute hell.
Their field of vision is much larger than that of the normal enemies, and they are impossible to stun, stealth kill, or snipe from a distance. What's more, one hit from them is pretty much instant death.
If you're going for an 'unseen' run, this level will be your nemesis. And even if you're not, good luck holding your own against even one of these things.
