Shoutout to my one friend that had no idea you were supposed to run from Asylum Demon and actually did beat it with the broken short sword
Oh, I did that too! I did realise part way through that I was meant to flee, but by that point, I'd already spent so much time attacking it that I had committed to my quest.
You say that but the last fromsoft game had literally the first boss be one you are supposed to die to
EDIT: yep, forgot armored core exists
They forgot about AC6 and were thinking of the Grafted Scion outside the Chapel of Anticipation in Elden Ring.
I first thought they might have meant Elden Ring, but I completely forgot about Grafted Scion!
"Surely they didn't mean Tree Sentinel... Maybe something I'm forgetting in AC6?"
You don't have to die to it.
If you beat it, you walk off the precipice of anticipation and end up in the cave.
Seeing boss before playing a FromSoft game: "Oh no..."
Seeing boss after beating a FromSoft game: "Come back here and fight, coward!"
Rimworld: you are bleeding and will soon lose consciousness. The only person who can help you has just gone mad. You get to watch the inevitable death for as long as it takes, but you get a good story out of it.
It's skippable, but you have to do a jump from the second elevator you ride up that's extra difficult to get right.
It messes with the prison and library sequence, or at least it used to IDK if they fixed it in remastered.
