This. Mechanic-wise, not looks.
You know what the Harvester reminds me of?
Hmm...
I say it's original. The Zelda one was quite differently themed...
It also scared me so bad I couldn't go to sleep.
Omg, when I first did the Apocrea mission. It scared the living [redacted] out of [redacted] me T_T.
@Sirius-Voltbreaker
Nothing is ever original :P
I'm afraid I have to agree there. The first thing that came to my head was "Slenderman" which I'm not normally scared of. But that thing, just... Wow.
I could list all the things it reminds me of.
Close enough, but in my opinion I think the Harvester acts and look more like this guy
The sound of it reminds me of The Grudge. I think the arm thing is pretty original, it's a pretty generic "fear of being grabbed and immobilized" concept that everyone thinks up at one stage in time, even if they don't watch horror movies or anything.
@Luka
The irritating bind attack and life draining... yeah please don't.
Speaking of which, how far are you in Spiral Knights?
When I saw it I was somewhat reminded of that thing from Spirited Away.. Slenderman didn't even cross my mind.
@Not-Impressed
Eh? You're right! Except it doesn't give out free moneys and doesn't become fat when it eats people. Or are you referring to something else?
@Hexzyle
I just passed the four star hall of heroes. I've been playing it a lot. So, what fight are you up to?
Luka-Boy: Nope, you got the right thing I was thinking of.. I was too lazy to try and find a decent picture link since I'm posting from iPod xD
EDIT: No-Face.. That's the thing it reminds me of.
Still calling it that it's based on Slenderman.
Before I knew what it was called, I instinctively called is a Grimalkin. Invulnerable (or so I thought) giant enemy who goes around in a dark area killing you. It's more like a Phantom with a ranged freeze attack, though.
@Chainguy:
It's like Slenderman crossed with the Grim Reaper.
@Chainguy
I'd link that Egorapture video in response to your comment (Where everyone is claiming that anything animated is made by Egoraptor) but it's got lotsa swearing in it so I can't D:
@Luka
Some purple possessed flower thingy in the final chapter. An Alraune, I think it was? I'm not stuck, I'm just distracted by other things at the moment like Love Plus and Alien Swarm mods. Chrome I admit getting stuck on though. She's a complete turdwallet, the entire fight depended on hoping she didn't use a bind or paralysis move more than once, which was like, 95% of the time.
"Bottom of the well. Good times..." -Lechery
Also, I'm very sure there are no good times to be found down there... Which raises the question... What did you do down there?
Looks. Like that guy has any.
