8 Insane Video Game Secrets That Made You Say WHAT?!
6. Big Daddies Taking A Break - Bioshock
It's made clear from the off that Big Daddy enemies require planning and careful use of your environment in order to take down, as going toe to toe with them is akin to a death sentence.
Their huge health pools, outstanding damage output, and the ability to run through you like a freight train mean you're likely to be pegging it from these lard lads as much as you are running into the firefight with them.
Turns out however that the devs tried their best to make sure you didn't get immediately pancaked by the Big Daddies, reducing their speed considerably the first couple of times that you turn away to run.
This means that even though they might be lunging for you at a frightening pace, you'll nearly always be able to escape or dive out of the way just in the nick of time.
It's a brilliant mechanic that will make you feel like an absolute sub-nautical superhero, but that doesn't make it any less weird when you know what's going on behind the scenes.
