10 Unfair Video Game Enemies That Made You Rage Quit

6. 'Woo Guy' - Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice

I've tried to limit the amount of From Software examples on this list, because from the archers in Dark Souls to Bloodborne's werewolves, the developer's games aren't lacking in enemies that make you shut the console off.

That said, 'Woo guy', as he's affectionately become known on the Internet, is probably the point everyone took an extended break away from Sekiro on their first playthrough. During one stretch, you're forced to climb the game's towers in order to fight Gennichiro, and the precarious roofs on the way leave you wide open to attacks that can send you flying back to the ground below.

It's at this point, then, that the developers decided to add in flying ninjas that throw shurikens at you from afar. Not only are these guys incredibly powerful, but they have an ace up their sleeve in the form of Woo Guy, who appears from the heavens - just when you think you're free - to strike you down.

Even when you know he's out there he will still kill you, as you'll no doubt be too busy dealing with other enemies to correctly judge his attack.
