10 Times Video Games Killed You IN A CUTSCENE!
2. Krauser Stabs Leon - Resident Evil 4
Resident Evil 4 introduced QTEs to the survival horror franchise for the first time, and to call it divisive is an understatement. Even if you manage to survive the ludicrously unfair QTE boulder, you'll face a much tougher struggle later during the QTE battle against Krauser.
The fight is a cinematic knife duel with players required to pull of a number of exact, hurried multi-button prompts or risk suffering a quick, brutal stabbing death from Leon's former comrade.
Though the sequence is relatively short at just a few minutes in length, it's still extremely annoying to fail and have to start over, especially as a ton of expository dialogue is dumped in-between the prompts.
Thankfully you get to battle Krauser the good old fashioned way later on and put him down for good.
