As the title says, this thread is all about surprising game moments.
Define surprising how you want, though!
Moments of shock, beauty, panic, etc. Anything that surprised you in a game, post it here.
I've had plenty of experiences, but the most recent one is really amazing.
Today, I was playing New Game Plus for Dark Souls 2, and that was full of surprises in itself. There were plenty of surprising moments, as New Game Plus did a great job of taking me off guard with new stuff.
For example, there was a part in one area where the boss just randomly showed up. I freaked out, and the boss left soon after.
Not to mention new enemies in new places.
So, the reason I'm doing New Game Plus is because I wanted to see the new content released for Dark Souls 2.
I needed to kill the four main bosses, and a new character would show up afterwards.
After the last boss, I looked around and couldn't find it.
So, in dismay, I went to kindle a primal bonfire. Then BOOM. My character was sent off his feet, and out of the ground rose the character I had spent several hours in order to find. The charred head covered with roots towered above my character, and told me I still had a ways to go.
And so now I know I'm on track, and soon I'll get the alternate ending to Dark Souls 2
