Blow some cannabis smoke in my face and point me in the direction of a comfortable chair. Now it’s a chill hangout session, not a boss fight. But you still win.

Completion reward: let’s share some pretzels

Everybody wins

Ask me about something I'm above average knowledged about that I'm also interested in, and then you can disarm the bomb, save the pricess, destroy my entire species before I'm done oversharing the introductory part or even its preface.

Bring as many npcs in the room as possible; then wait for the social anxiety to make me lock up

See you, me, and Julio down by the schoolyard

"Is this the real life, is this just fantasy"

[–] Mozingo@lemmy.world 13 points 5 months ago

They'd probably handle me the same way as the fish boss in Earthworm Jim. Just one smack to the face and I'm done. That's all it takes.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 13 points 5 months ago

Ask nicely if they can scooch past. Id be mortified that I was in the way at all.

[–] tourist@lemmy.world 10 points 5 months ago

idk probably like detaching my brain stem with a hammer or something

[–] maculata@aussie.zone 10 points 5 months ago

A look of disappointment and a sigh.

[–] DemBoSain@midwest.social 9 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Steady, unrelenting emotional abuse.

[–] Tangent5280@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Oof, hope you're better now.

[–] eezeebee@lemmy.ca 9 points 5 months ago

By making me chase after them for more than 30 seconds. Just go ahead, I'll catch up later.

[–] AGD4@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

Wait out my timer or go around me.

[–] quinkin@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

Attack at dawn.

Are you professor Nakayama?

[–] BugleFingers@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I was driven mad by the unrelenting noises of society. The clamor, the insanity of humanity. The protagonistic figure decides a more peaceful option is adequate for my type of villainy and offers me quiet respite. A lovely cottage suitable for my hermit-like needs.

With this, I am at peace. I have a home. I have quiet. No quarrels with the world anymore

[–] RGB3x3@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

What loot do you have to make it worthwhile for the protagonist?

[–] BugleFingers@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Hmmmmm, I might have a shiny rock or two. But I think the general public would be the providers of most appreciation awards due to not having me around anymore

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 7 points 5 months ago

Subtly undermine my self-confidence.

[–] Zachariah@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Show me the error in my ways so I can learn from it, or transform me from bad to good.

[–] pseudo@jlai.lu 6 points 5 months ago

Any way he choose. How would pick my as boss? That's a very bad move.

[–] Cano@lemm.ee 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I dunno, but you can skip the boss fight if you bring me some nice food

[–] Nemo@midwest.social 4 points 5 months ago

Exploiting my hubris.

I actually wrote out an outline for this back when I was making small videogames as a hobby. I never actually made the game, which was probably overly ambitious, which is fitting because it was a game about ambition and hubris with me as the villains (multiverse shenanigans) and a pair of scrappy teenage sleuths as the protagonists.

[–] darklamer@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Distract me with food and drink.

[–] magnetosphere@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

In my case, a sack of White Castles.

Cheese.

Either the edible kind or the repetitive-bullshit-but-it-works kind.

[–] xilliah@beehaw.org 4 points 5 months ago

Takes away my coffee

[–] ShadowCatEXE@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Probably shooting the chips from cutting a log with a chainsaw at my face. That’s gotten be at some point painful and extremely annoying.

[–] HEXN3T@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I'm not an incompetent fighter or anything. I assume it wouldn't be a chance encounter, though, and I'd probably be prepared. In that case, well, they'd definitely have their work cut out for them. Prepare to dodge bullets, and engage in hand-to-hand combat with someone who can take a good beating before giving up.

I'm exhausted easily in my current state, however. Anything more than a short close quarters fight will likely do me in. That is, importantly, assuming I don't use πŸ’«drugsπŸ’«.

[–] skulblaka@startrek.website 4 points 5 months ago

When you hit phase 2 of the fight and the boss pulls out a crack pipe

[–] dotslashme@infosec.pub 2 points 5 months ago

I'm gonna say donuts

Laugh at me and say I’m stupid.

[–] Ibaudia@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Just start yelling at me and I'll probably shut down and cry.

[–] Monster96@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Showing me a picture of your mother lmao gottem
