8 Video Game Special Moves That Made You Say WHAT?!
6. That First Waterfowl Dance - Elden Ring
If you're looking for an example of a "What?!" generation factory, look no further than Elden Ring.
With enemies that block out the sun with their mass, to environments that are jaw-droppingly impressive, you'll never be short of things to marvel at and question just how the FromSoft devs managed to cram this many iconic moments into just one experience.
That being said, a rather large portion of incredulous expressions also come from the game utterly battering you like you're a cod in a fish and chip shop, as nothing is going to make you exhale like you've had your balls punched up through you quite like being utterly embarrassed by one of the many, many tough as nails enemies in this game.
And let's face it, we all had to quietly rethink our lives the moment that Malenia unleashed her super special combo chain, aka the Waterfowl Dance, on us for the first time, as this right here? It's bullllllls**t.
It just goes on and on, to the point where it's actually quite hilarious, or at least it would be if you weren't being flayed alive.
You can try and dodge, but she will find you; you can try and block but your stamina will disappear in the blink of an eye, and all that's left is one horrible option.
You need to memorize each step, learn when exactly to move and when to block and, dare I say it, Git Gud.
