10 Video Game Fights Developers Didn’t Want You To Win

1. Yiazmat - Final Fantasy XII

Yiazmat Final Fantasy
Square Enix

By a general rule of thumb, the number fifty million is usually accepted as a large number. If someone gave you fifty million grains of rice, you'd have a lot of rice. If someone had fifty million origami cranes, you'd say that were a bit of a fan of folding paper.

And so, when you hear that Yiazmat's minimum health is fifty million HP, you realise that he's going to take a bit of a while to beat. And by a little while, we do mean twelve hours. Twelve whole hours. Half a day of your life, that you can never, ever get back.

Or maybe twenty four, as if you're not savvy to Yiazmat's moveset, the tricksy creature can use the renew spell to regain all his health just before he's beaten. Meaning that all the hours you put into beating him have been rendered absolutely, entirely pointless.

In short this boss has definitely made more than one person cry, and you really can't blame them.
