To a lesser extent the Zols that heavily populate 3-1. If you haven't gotten the White Sword (or don't know about Manhandla's bomb weakness) you aren't going to have an easy time finishing that level. Manhandla is incredibly hard to kill with any weapon weaker than the White Sword it has four different heads to kill, and each one takes four strikes with the Wooden Sword to destroy, and it gets progressively faster and harder to dodge as it loses its heads.
The Manhandla that is the boss of Level 3-1. A single one can easily slaughter a beginning player, and you will find swarms of them in the northwest, effectively keeping the player out of that region until they acquire some more hearts, the White Sword, the Magical Shield, and preferably the Blue Ring. They're by far the nastiest enemies you'll find in the overworld, with the red Lynels taking 4 hits from the Wooden Sword to kill and the blue ones taking about 6, and both varieties shoot a sword projectile that requires the Magical Shield to deflect, while dealing a hefty 2 hearts of damage when they hit with their sword beams. The Lynels that populate the Death Mountain area in the northwest of the map. Of course, it is possible to survive if the player is skilled enough. The Legend of Zelda is one of the earliest examples of a Wide-Open Sandbox, with nothing stopping players from entering any area on the overworld from the start of the game and fighting enemies that can kill them in one hit. That being said, if you're good enough at the game, have forged some broken-ass equipment, or abuse Reckoning Mode, you can cut through or avoid the worst of these enemies. That's far from recommended, though, as not only do enemies get progressively tougher the further east you go, but the paths out of the starting forest of Dalentarth is guarded by a high-level Crudoch. 
In Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, it is possible to run from the very beginning of the game all the way to one of the two major cities of Rathir and Adessa on the far end of the western half of the map. 
In The Guardian Legend, Corridor 3 is a huge leap in difficulty over the preceding areas, as well as housing one of the hardest bosses in the game, so be sure to acquire as many upgrades as you can before taking it on. In Castlevania II: Simon's Quest, going left initially is an easy way to get butchered by way-too-powerful enemies. However, given how some RPGs abuse Event Flags for Railroading the player into completing objectives in a preordained but nonobvious order, the line between the two tropes may be blurred a little when a previously Hopeless Boss Fight becomes winnable.Ĭompare Cash Gate, where you need Global Currency instead of XP to advance the plot Fame Gate, where you need to gain in-universe notoriety instead NPC Roadblock, where you can't kill the character to advance and Kill Enemies to Open, where locks and barriers somehow open themselves when the right creatures are defeated. Note that if the way is guarded by an enemy that is simply invincible until you get a specific Plot Coupon and you cannot sneak past another way, it qualifies as a Broken Bridge instead. In Wide-Open Sandbox RPGs that don't employ Level Scaling, this trope exists by default being able to go somewhere is distinct from being able to survive there. This trope is nearly omnipresent in MMORPGs, which generally use the Level Grinding necessary to survive in a new area as their primary advancement mechanic.
