[@TheWolfSharp]

Oh man, Shadow of Mordor, you start on taking a few isolated Uruks, but by the time you reach the end you're controlling half of them, attacking fortress, taking on an entire army on your own.

[@jonathangazich7169]

i was hoping they'd put that game in there

[@russwest9248]

I think they made that Video already some time ago, and Schadow of Mordor was in there.

[@William-Sunderland]

Yeah.

[@nightshade6988]

Damn I fucking loved that game!

[@ValyrianSteelProductions]

My favorite game series

[@andreypokesaround]

In Ghost of Tsushima once you fully upgrade the Sakai Clan armour and have a certain set of charms, you pretty much turn into a monster.

[@Soulute367]

Yup.

[@Soulute367]

Also Ghost ov Tsushima is porn

[@chiefinasmith]

It also helps that Sakai armor looks sick as fuck

[@RobertTrey-ov1lz]

One man army!

[@thestraydog]

Nothing better than hearing invaders screaming "It's the Ghost!" Like you're some kinda Japanese Batman!

[@xelusprime]

Prototype 1 made me feel like a badass by the end of the game. The amount of power you have by then, running up walls, jumping at a helicopter and just generally being a ridiculously agile/fast walking tank against everything just feels glorious.

[@Orangebeard69]

Prototype was what I was thinking of immidiatly as well

Might not be that famous , he is infamous

[@keytostart7053]

I came for this comment, glad i didnt have to scroll long. Picking up a bus, holding it sideways overhead, and sprinting down the sidewalk absolutely smashing thousands of NPCs over the damn horizon... Power throwing enemies into an actual pulp against brick walls from inches away...or grabbing them and sprinting up the side of the Empire State Building just to launch them miles into the sea... and thats how powerful we are just to start the game!

[@chrismccoy6481]

Both prototype games, it doesn't take long to become OP. I'd love a new gen one. They're just chaos and destruction, good stuff.

[@danhitchner]

They put Prototype or Infamous on every one of these types of "overpowered" videos. They tend to alternate. They are both very fun and you become a super killing machine in them both. I did prefer Prototype, probably because I prefer the Xbox controller over PS, but i love a new one of either game.

[@karips49]

My thought the second I read the title

[@adityabhattacharjee6409]

Alex Mercer from Prototype makes you feel like you can take on Marvel & DC, walk on Mars and still have time for your afternoon tea

[@Shadows_Inc]

Fun fact about infamous: If you're in an area without power, find a street light, a bench, a manhole cover, anything made of metal, and fire the weak shock at it a half dozen times or so to conduct electricity through it, then absorb it. You always get back more than you put in, and it makes it so you don't need charging stations or power grids. Instant power on the go, and it's pretty fast and easy too.

[@mr.creamsoda]

Oooh, I remember finding out that trick by accident when I was a kid. It felt like cheating after that. :D

[@Alex-theez]

I did this trick all the time, in infamous 1 more than 2 because the standard R1 bolt would consume energy in infamous 2 (it doesnt in i1)

[@Shadows_Inc]

@@Alex-theez Even in infamous 2, if you use it a few times and absorb, you get back more than you put in. As long as you have enough to make like 3-6 bolts when starting, you'll always be able to get a full bar after doing it a few times.

[@Psyrus88]

[@marshallteach9006]

The ability to stop time in Dishonored makes you stupidly powerful to the point where you have to be careful not to abuse it. Also I think Morrowind was more generous than Skyrim in terms of level scaling, like the early game is harder but by the end you become a killing machine, while Skyrim tries to keep things a bit challenging for you.

[@randomhairline1797]

I genuinely had so much fun playing control, I’ve always wanted a game where I had telekinesis

[@cherkaouia5541]

It's such an untapped feature in games and whenever it's implemented correctly it's so badass

[@muhammadnabil675]

Same here. I do wish the telekinesis power branches to more area like levitating mob in the air so that they're helpless, pull their weapon off their hand to disarm them and then throws at them, gravitational force, Aoe push or pull, etc...

[@dtanobo]

It is a damn shame there isn't an Infamous 1 and 2 remastered collection. I'd pay full price for that. Those being locked on old hardware is a crime.

[@Seth748]

You can get the highest tier of ps plus and steam them but who tf wants to stream them. Not everyone has great internet. Also it's a crime that prototype/prototype 2 weren't on here you literally become superhuman.

A poor choice of TES. In Morrowind you start as a dude who can barely even walk and half your punches miss, and you end up jumping over the entire continent and creating your own spells that can one-hit everything. Skyrim is a very far cry from Morrowind in that regard, even Alchemy and Enchanting in Skyrim are less powerful than in MW.

Fable 1/The Lost Chapters/Anniversary. You can grind to the point that endgame bosses take seconds, you could count the hits you land on one hand, (not because they dodge, but because you're so OP you don't need to hit them that often,) and it gets to the point that nothing can really harm you.

In Kingdom Come Deliverance, you start out as a guy who can barely even swing a sword. By the time you reach level 20, you should be fully geared with all sorts of perks. I mow people down at level 20. A funny story was I beat a high level bandit at level 3 or 4 and it took forever and the bandit says almost at the end, "To be beaten by the likes of you!" so, the game developers oven put in interesting dialogue when you actually do something not really intended to be done. I have only heard that comment once in the thousands of hours I have put in.

[@Zett76]

I always think of the starting levels of Batman: Arkham Asylum, when I think of "the right way" of being overpowered. Once you've figured out the fighting mechanics (and before the gangs have guns), you just waltz through a dozen of enemy goons. It's not easy, per se, but it feels right. "I am Batman!", and I am way too quick for 12 enemies, engaging.

Such a great game to play though the first time, going from strength to strength.

[@EyeHeytEwe]

Warframe. Week 1 of playing you're briskly jogging through missions & barely understand what your character's powers actually do. After a month, you're bullet jumping while creating localized black holes, summoning The Kraken, casting "meteor" every 3 seconds or electrocuting every enemy in range... And you're *still* not at full power! It's known as a "power fantasy" game, and it definitely lives up to that hype.

Warframe: You start out with some pretty cool powers, mainly the movement system that makes you feel pretty badass (once you figure it out), but enemies can still deck you. A thousand hours later (yes, a thousand), when you upgraded your hard-hitting mods and figured out a bunch of builds, you're essentially nuking lvl 100 and above enemies while casually discussing the weather with your teammates.

[@JScotty4Reel]

Crossing my fingers that Deathloop made the cut! So satisfying once you get access to residium after struggling the first few hours

[@Grapefruit5000]

As far as arcane games go, I'd say dishonored makes you feel the power difference from beginning to end, much more than deathloop.

[@Xeacons]

I gotta throw TotK. Every Zelda game brings you from practically useless to outright unstoppable, but in TotK, everything seems to one-shot you at first. By the end, you're hunting down Gloom hands just to get your hands on Phantom Ganon's bow.

I know this won't likely be a popular mention, but Forespoken. You start off essentially able to throw rocks at enemies and run away just faster than you run your mouth, but you quickly gain 4 entire ability trees of magic that you can rapidly swap between, making you one of the most insanely mobile battle mages in almost any game in years. Many can take exception to the story and dialogue, some to the exploration, but when you have an army of repeatedly-spawning enemies surrounding you for huge sections of the map, it's incredibly satisfying being able to rain destruction down on entire armies while zipping around the battlefield.

[@zinkohtun3977]

I think Prototypes 1 and 2 should be mentioned. The MCs of those two games are some kind of shapeshifting bioweapons or humanoid version of The Thing and gameplay is similar to Infamous. The best part of the Prototype games is that players can consume NPCs, shapeshift into them, and infiltrate the enemy bases. Just like the creature from 'The Thing' movies.

[@static-san]

Saints Row 3 and 4 have been mentioned already but lemme repeat them. In both its possible to be almost completely invincible (vulnerable only to fire in SR3 - but SR4 has a few other things to wear you down) and have limitless ammunition. At that point, the routine encounters tend to be most fun when you go full melee with the baseball bat. Plus in SR4 you get "super powers" which can be insanely powerful.

Virginia in sons of the forest takes the cake. While the player is "powerful" with a shotgun and golden armor, she annihilates everything wielding several firearms simultaneously. All while wearing that adorable dress and giving the player dead animals. Love her

[@Petch85]

I think "universal paperclips" is the game I have played with the largest difference from starting the game to completing the game. That game is insane😊

[@KeithElliott-zd8cx]

to be fair, all incremental games kinda do that, but not quite the same kinda games.

[@condawg758]

i love how this is a video about how you become stupidly powerful, but then right at the end of some of the segments you get shown the player character dying. makes it feel especially overpowered.

[@Pak_Flesot]

I always felt like saints row 4 was like this. When you start out, you will possibly get beaten by just a few enemies, if you are not careful. And then you eventually are able to annihilate anything that moves.

[@webbie7503]

what about Saints Row 4? You become way more powerful than most of the games on this list

[@dragontear134]

I was really hoping for one of the prototype games :(

[@thexbagoul3456]

How you gonna not mention Fable 2! (Best one imo) lol awesome video!

[@sumsum83460]

EDF one of the most goofy game I know but I Love IT and the absurd weapon you get. EDF!!! EDF!!!

[@HughMungusJack]

Prototype 1 & 2, you missed that game. XD

[@wicky8120]

Coz he mentioned those games 1000 times in previous videos similar to this

[@AwesomeDadTrip]

I’m surprised Arkane’s Prey wasn’t on the list. You start out hitting with a wrench and you finish literally exploding mimics with Kinesis. All the buffs to strength and health along with all the mimic powers makes you pretty unstoppable by the end of the game. New Game plus you can just fly through if you keep your Neuro mods and upgrades.

[@anotherbacklog]

Surprised to see Earth Defense Force on top of the list. Even at end game high level enemies can still smoke a player in a few seconds. It can actually get very tactical With the popularity of Helldiver 2, hope more people will find out about EDF

[@SilverDreamweaver]

Correction: There's one, HUGE reason not to use Warfarer, and that's Meister Skills. Meister Skills are the most broken things in the game and the Warfarer can't equip any of them. I'm talking about one-shotting every boss in the game and having ultra instinct-that level of broken. Wayfarer doesn't get that, and thus isn't worth it imo. It's fun, but not as fun as having ultra instinct, summoning meteros and tornados to one-shot even lesser dragons and melting their corpse so they respawn quicker, summoning heavenly magic arrows to one-shot every boss and every enemy within sight at once, infinite stamina + haste, and so on. Also, warfarer is significantly weaker, stat-wise, than other classes. And it's very noticeable.

[@murdya9766]

@Mikoto_Tsukuyomidamn, level 200?? How many hours have you spent?

[@ivonbeton4725]

Yeah, Wayfarer is way weaker than classes like Thief, Magick Archer or Mystic Spearhand. Those classes are completely bonkers in comparison.

[@jackiechan715]

It's very unfortunate, considering how tedious it is to even unlock Wayfarer, the only true benefit is the flexibility in mixing and matching gear and abilities.

[@murdya9766]

@Mikoto_Tsukuyomi nah that ain't easy to get, 100+ hrs of gameplay ain't easy. Level 999 is just stupidly high

[@Mr_Perses]

Final Fantasy 15 should get a mention. Noctus at level 120 is a demon. 😮

[@Labib-dw1lk]

just made a comment about the ring thing too!

[@hotloleyn]

Yeah i make the mistake to drag to much my exploration and bro moments so when finally advance more, all enemies were too easy the breaking point was when i encounter a 99 lvl fiend and i take it too serious and erase it 🥲

[@RLarson3000]

A lot of the Ratchet and Clank games. You just have an entire arsenal by the end. Great list!

[@xizar0rg]

Saint's Row 4 also lets you get absurdly overpowered, and is generally a lot of fun (even if I miss the excuse to drive around listening to the radio).

[@brodriguez11000]

Guilty pleasure was running through crowds like the flash.

[@kidwave8898]

In Cyberpunk 2077 you become stupidly op

[@dylanbyard4594]

Thank you for the Infamous mention. I feel like it gets overlooked for alot of lists😅

[@Zett76]

Maybe because it's an exclusive title? I would have loved to play it on PC, but... sadly... :)

[@KeithElliott-zd8cx]

tbh prototype fits better.

[@Cpherwilky]

The Fable series deserves a spot on this list

[@Neuronpath]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Ducasantrii]

In Gothic I think it depends on what class are you playing. I played as a mage only once because it was too easy.

[@navarixzen6938]

agreed, i racked up 100 hours in gothic 2 on steam just because i was not playing as a mage, the game would just be too easy to end using magic rather than swords 😅

[@KeithElliott-zd8cx]

yeah, elex's cleric beats every elex 2 option, hands down - and you could get two faction abilities...

[@AccursedHawk]

So basically every souls game?

[@Mgranadosv]

I am one of those who overlevels from the get go in DS/ER but if you get too cocky with some bosses you still get annihilated.

[@c.j.wilkerson9112]

Got platinum Bloodborne with the same build and did 99 arc and 50 everything else through ng+1. Hunter tools and Lost Chikage were stupid OP even on the NG+'s. Only time I had trouble was when the camera for the boss was horrible (looking at you headless bloodletting beast).

[@fenixa2z936]

Did you even watch the video? 🤡

[@extrashifty578]

Not really possibly only Elden Ring

[@tragicjon6193]

​@@c.j.wilkerson9112 ah, the dreaded Camera Boss the true enemy of all Souls players

[@benilinshingoseth2086]

To me, Control is really a good pick, my favorite. Then, I'll choose Asterigos. You start already incredibly strong, wondering how you can be more powerful... But, trust me, you can !

[@bigdexmedia5233]

Thank you for including InFamous on this list. I feel as though inFamous does not get the recognition it deserves...yes with the inFamous games, I did feel like a true superhero, shooting bolt powers at my enemies and glowing up my powers to point where I can perform Orbital Drops and Lightning Storms to oblierate large hordes of enemies and devastate large portions of the landscape

[@gearzdesign]

Dragon's dogma 2 fights become mundane not because of wayfarer, but around lv. 40-45 and you have a sorc in the group. Specially if you have meteor and/or maelstrom, those skills 1-3 shot most large mobs and makes the fights trivial. Thankfully, there's mods out there that actually does the devs job where they improve the difficulty scaling and balances the skills and vocations. Among other things that Capcom failed to do.

[@AdamGlory]

It sounds like you just shouldn’t have a sorcerer in your party, don’t need mods to do that.

[@bradkirchhoff5703]

Want tougher fights? Go to the volcano area. Different location have different difficulties like it should be.

[@gearzdesign]

@bradkirchhoff5703 I've cleared the entire game, like I said, at a certain point the game stops scaling, and fights become trivial.

[@gearzdesign]

@@AdamGlory Because that makes total sense, sure I could do that, ignore an entire vocation (or two as there's more than just sorc's that melt mobs) because Capcom can't be bothered with actual balancing and introducing a proper NG+ with higher scaling AI/Mobs.

[@AdamGlory]

@@gearzdesign You’re right, it does make sense. If your problem is with sorcerers, don’t use sorcerers. Or if the problem is specific spells, don’t pick pawns who know them. It’s a VERY easy fix, highly recommend.

[@spudmcqueen]

All the Soulsborne games could be on this list. Also Cyberpunk 2077, you literally become sought out and feared within the world once you cross a certain threshold

[@LovusEternius]

Earth Defense force... man that's a good series. "THERE'S STILL ONE SIGNAL LEFT THERE -- SOMEBODY IS STILL DOWN THERE FIGHTING!" "WHAT? WHO!?" "IT'S.... STORM ONE!"
