oh we're talking about annoying RE monsters?
May I introduce to you: the lycans from RE8
HELLO EVERYONE AND GOD BLESS US ALL 👍😎👍
14:39 wait, if Rebecca got bitten during a cutscene how is she even alive?
Resi 4 regeneraters, hate them but love them! 🤣
Gotta say the 4 legged molded from RE7 suck, and I can never land a headshot in time 😂
I just knew moths were going to be number one. I love Code Veronica but those damn moths hate them.
The worst thing about leech zombies is that most of the time they appear in small spaces so is hard to avoid their hits. The other ones that are annoying in R.E 0 are the cockroaches in the training facility. Specially the ones that appear in the small room beneath the place you fight the giaant centipede
You forgot the g-embryos
13:11 i'm sorry but that had me in sobs laughing. 😂😂😂
Who knew taking down Wesker would be as simple as feeding him to a giant frog. You got Chris punching boulders and hitting him with rockets, yet here comes Lurky the Froggo just eats him like he's nothing. 🤣🤣🤣
Edit: i'm aware its not actually Wesker its probably just a skin, but its still funny to see Wesker get downed by what is essentially a giant frog.
And that Moth is one of three reasons i never finished that game. Used up way too many resources in that corridor and used the Blue Herb pot so much i'm pretty sure it stopped giving me more Blue Herbs. I do not understand what they were thinking when they decided to put that in the game. They must have been cackling like cartoon villains at the thought of how much this one spot in the game was going to annoy people because no way in hell is the Moth hall that annoying by mistake.
Original RE1 hunters would take my number 1 spot
Something being difficult is a good thing if you aren't a filthy casual (obnoxious airhorns)
Great list! Did you read the resident evil novel of S.D. Perry? The novels are the story of resident evil 0, 1, 2, 3 and code veronica + 2 more story that happen between re 1 and 2 and rs3 and code veronica. Really interesting. Maybe they can give you some idea for your next video! 😉
Agreed!
Cool list and vid overall 👍👍
Crimson Heads are so annoying the way zombies are in RE1 are comical but these are something else more intensifying and scary I got sort of far but could not complete RE1 because of these LOL
Lickers I don't find annoying as much in RE2 remake you just walk slowly and they can't hear that's great
I do defiantly 100% agree the moths in Code Veronica are the most annoying in the entire series its the poison an absolute pain in the ass
I'm a little surprised that none of the enemies from resident evil 6 are on this list. I'm replaying it for the first time in a decade, and I forgot how annoying it is to fight anything in that game
Took me the better part of 20 years to put it together, but the Lurkers are only triggered when the water level is lowered.
Also, if you rapidly press the buttons when a Moth egg hatches, you can avert the Poison status.
I can never settle on one that's more annoying than something else. Hunters annoy the hell out of me then I have to go and find something else more annoying, then it's Hunters again 😂
Id say eliminators are first. Bullet sponges and fast.
Great video, But I’m surprised that the flying incests from re4 remake weren’t in the video as there is so many of them and they are always in large hordes.
Those moths are 💯% the most annoying enemy in the history of Resident Evil, but I would add the reapers in re5 to the list as well.
Good list but after just finishing Revelations 2 I have to say the invisible flying bugs you have to blindly shoot at off of a small girls finger pointing is FAR and away the most annoying enemy I’ve gone up against.
From RE4 I found the insect enemies much more annoying in the remake compared to the Regenerador or Iron Maiden. Sure they lacked an instant kill, but there are usually many of them. And fighting them all can use up a lot of resources especially in the ballroom in the main game.
RE3R had some of the worst enemies, especially on higher difficulties. Pale Heads, Gamma Hunters, Beta Hunters, Parasite zombies, Drain Demos, and Nemesis, all dumb in their own way. Even regular zombies that lunge twice are a huge pain in the ass. Weird that none of them are on here.
The moths can be shaken off before they poison you. Once you realize this, they are harmless.
Enemies that are mostly bullet sponges can be very annoying 😂
I feel like this list is mostly about re0. Would have liked to see a more balanced list of monsters other than just re0. If you want just do a list of that game. You said this was most annoying monster from re but almost all the monsters come from re0
These monsters really are some of the worst, but for some only if you choose to fight them. The lurkers with their one hit kill were scary for me during my no save run of RE 0. The moths didn't bother me too much in Veronica thanks to limited back tracking. Crimson heads, just make sure to burn the bodies or decapitate zombies. Those zombies whose heads you blow off or explode won't come back. As for eliminators they can be skipped, though you do have to kill the four in the large room with the puzzle to do it. Lickers and Ivies are pretty bad, just try to do your best with them.
I've 100% Re0, Re1R, ReCV, Re4, Re4R, and am currently working on Re8. The original Re2 and Re3 I've beat on the hardest difficulty on the Gamecube version. I've played but haven't fully completed ReRev1, Re5, Re6, Re7, Re2R, and Re3R. But yeah I've played enough to know you are correct in these 10 being the most annoying. And I agree with alot of the others mentioned in the comments.
Excellent list. 100% agree on the top three. The lurkers also seemed to appear a good distance away from save areas. Eliminators…always in packs and you get two of em on yah, you can be stun toast. But those Fing moths!!!! As a habitual saver, they were beyond annoying in the fact they could just not be killed permanently
Leech monsters are killed with fire – just keep your molotovs for them if you can't just run past (you may need to take the 2 characters through seperately).
For me the most annoying enemies on this list are the lurkers, mostly because they've ruined quite a few perfectly good no save runs I've done for the various platinums and the AI never reacts. Just stands there and let's me be munched.
18:47–18:54 So Dallas and Brett from Alien's Directors Cut. Good to know there's some more Alien references in the series.
Good list. Ive been playing Resident Evil for over 20 years and never knew the monkeys from Zero were called Eliminators.
I think the leech zombies should have been a bit higher.
Wouldve liked to see some mentions of Revelations games like the Wall Blister or Dhulgra
But defo agree putting those bastard moths first. So so many times having to cure poison and you cant even kill them
I won't be surprised that developer made moths annoying just because how underwhelming and unmemorable re2 moth was.
