10 Video Game Side Missions That Let EVERYONE Down
4. Delicate Flower - Hollow Knight
"Hey, take this flower with you, will ya? Take it down into the very depths of the land, and make sure you don't get touched or anything on the way, it's real delicate!"
Ready for an exercise in frustration? Try out Hollow Knight's hidden Delicate Flower mission!
In this, you literally have to take a flower from the top of the map to near the bottom without warping, without using rest benches, and without getting hit even once. It requires an intricate knowledge of Hollow Knight's world and how to avoid/attack enemies without being hit. It's an incredibly frustrating mission altogether - one that will definitely make you either give up in frustration or persevere until you're the best Hollow Knight player in all the land.
You'd think at the end of such a difficult mission there'd be a great reward waiting for you, right? Nope. The reward for this one is simply a mask shard (which you need three of to increase your health by one) and a trophy/achievement showing what you've done.
Thankfully basically all of the rest of Hollow Knight is absolutely superb, so we'll let them off for this one transgretion.
