10 Video Game Enemies That Made You Turn The Console Off

8. Shinobi Hunter - Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice

Another quickie from the masters of "Imma head out", Sekiro's Shinobi Hunter often ties with the Chained Ogre as where a lot of people realised Shadows Die Twice just wasn't for them.

Where the Ogre has legit broken hitboxes, grabbing you with its football tackle dive even if you're literally standing outside its arms, the Shinobi Hunter is the first enemy to demand you perfect the Mikiri Counter - an animation where you charge into its thrust attack, to parry effectively.

The real brain-breaker is you're otherwise taught to avoid what's coming when a specific attack icon appears on screen, but here it's the opposite, because From Software.

Sekiro's whole thing is letting your muscle memory and reactions build over time to eventually nail this, but so many players hated being poked and prodded from afar by this super-quick enemy anyway, that even wanting to figure out the process was too much.
