Post subject:  Least-Shocking Moments in Games? (SPOILER TAGS!!!)

We've all been shocked by different moments in video games... Mainly it's the epic endings of some of our favorites... But, it's not always this way, now, is it?

Lets be honest, some games make things obvious to us, yet have the "Characters" oblivious to certain moments, so that when they're finally revealed, they are shocked, and we are more suprised that the characters didn't see it coming than we are about what "It" even is!

Here's a great example:

Spoiler: Super Paper Mario
The Mysterious Mr. L, being revealed as Luigi... If you didn't see this coming, I'm shocked for you.


Any other truly "Epicly Un-Epic" moments you can think of?

Spoiler: GS2
Engarde is guilty.

I know that his reaction as soon as you say "De Killer" isn't a clear give-away that he's guilty, but it's a clear give-away that some is up.


Also, the fact that evidence was forged.


And that Franzy comes in at the last second and saves the day. (Considering I had known that she/Gumshoe was coming for a good while, I had no idea it was happening!)

Spoiler:
Personally, I don't think that qualifies. It's not really obvious that they're related (at least I didn't think so when I played 3-4/3-5). Besides, nobody makes a big deal out of it anyway.

She gets captured. Again. You save her. Again. She gets captured...

Yes and yes. But for Layton...

Spoiler: Professor Layton and the Curious Village
the only reason I didn't see it coming is because it was the worst plot twist in history. I adored the game for its cleverness, so I was completely blindsided by having such a cheap answer to the mystery of St Mystere.

:larry: I still love you, Professah.

I'm a bit slow, so really obvious things to other people are usually huge surprises to me, but I probably have a couple...

Spoiler: TWEWY
Beat and Rhyme were siblings.

Spoiler: Grandia II
Pope Zera was an evil bastard, Granas died... Those and the game's full of a bunch of cliches I won't bother mentioning.

Spoiler: Escape from Monkey Island
Charles L Charles is LeChuck in disguise, Ozzy Mandrill betrays LeChuck

Spoiler: TC:UTK2
Emilio dies, Mayuzumi and Mercer are evil, Dr Tulba goes batshit, Zakara is completely forgotten until the end of the game, and the mysterious disease affecting people there was a plot device to get Adel to turn against Caduceus and was never mentioned afterwards, let alone eradicated.

I didn't even play past the intro because of the awful controls and just by reading vague plot summaries without spoilers I got those -.-

Spoiler: All 4 Fatal Frame games
The man dies. Always.

Spoiler: All 4 Fatal Frame games (again)
At least one or more of the main characters is somehow linked to the dead person(s), either by family, being a previous acquaintance of them or being a supposed "reincarnation" of them, and the person(s) always died because of a ritual to stop Malice of some kind floating around all over the place.

Spoiler: Curse of Monkey Island
Stan. Enough said.

Spoiler: Secret of Monkey Island
You can't get a game over, even when you drown. I wanted to.

Spoiler: LeChuck's Revenge
You STILL don't get Elaine.

Spoiler: CV: Order of Ecclesia's Least Shocking Moment
#1: You fight Albus....and kill him.
#2: You fight Dracula. Hit, jump, move, rinse, repeat.


However.....

Spoiler: Ecclesia's Biggest Surprise (to me, at least)
Thoughts while fighting Dracula:
Wow. He's really beating the hell out of me.
As long as I can jump over him....WHAT?!
I can't jump over him?! Oh, well; I'll just work through the pain....
Wait....no transformation? THE HELL?!! HE'S WALKING?! oO!!!

Yeah, for any seasoned CV gamer, this is a series first. XD
No, in-game movies from previous installments don't count.

Does he have a deep, breath-y voice? And black clothing/armor? And powerful command of some forbidden magic?

Hey, there's the evil boss right there! He is trying to resurrect some dark entity or god or some nonsense that will destroy the world! Better kill him with my beefed-up teenage party!

Ha ha, got you, evil warlock, you can't harm the world anymo- Huh? What's this? You're using the last of your strength to become some hideous and powerful monster? And you have become nothing more than a mindless killing machine that must be stopped in a climactic duel to the finish?
