even in the left pic her face is no better than average. i don't get people's obsession with this bitch, she's literally nothing special. just completely unremarkable looking

Dragon Age Origins had a fight like that with Ser Cauthrien but if you managed to win it would adjust. It was a nice touch.

The only time I can see a "fight you're supposed to lose" being acceptable is when it does something like Kingdom Hearts 2 did, where it just throws infinite enemies at you until a cutscene triggers or you get low on health.
