I still didn't like hurting him. He's so cool.
Rogue Wikko in Phantasy Star Universe
They sound so excited upon spawning (shouting out "Here I go!"), as if they've spent a long time preparing for this moment. Then they inevitably get killed by a single attack, and let out a disappointed "awww" as they die. Have a listen here. I'm not sure if I feel sorry for them more than I find it humorous though.

Man I really never got this. "This land is peaceful, its inhabitants kind" my motherfuckin ass. Would be like if you stumbled through the ghetto and got stabbed and almost raped only for some random guy to be like "eh it's usually pretty cool around here".
Well maybe she doesn't get out very often. Or something.
There's a way to save him and have him help in your final battle so, not that bad. Or you could just not finish his questline lol.

Junior, please.
Owl Knight's Owl - he gets so upset!
Roo - not his fault he's being made to fight
The Hollow Archer who stands here, right by the female Undead Merchant. He is by far the weakest enemy in the game - by virtue of his position, he is practically unable to hit you. He's just there on his own, completely ineffectual. Poor guy.

Not off to the best start when the OP posts a pic without saying what game it's from. Is that one of the Fallout games? What the hell enemy is it? It's not like you posted a pic of a Goomba.
First thing that came to mind.
Also, (Infamous 2 ending spoiler)
I actually felt ill afterwards.
How is this not a Shadow Of The Colossus thread yet.
Poor colossi

The evil ending when you have to kill Zeke
Next time, make sure you kill all the maggots.
I second this. Though the boss fight with him felt a bit too much like "S&M" for my liking.
Crossbreed Priscilla
It's completely unnecessary too. She gives you a chance to leave as well.

Her and Sniper Wolf.

Pompey's a total dick, man. He deserved the black eye.
Should have been a companion instead of an Enemy!
All of the cuter animals in RTS games like age of empires.
Saving him is actually worse than killing him according to the game's director Miyazaki;
He lights the fire in his own world and burns alive in the Kiln for years just like his father did. At least he died a quick death with the parasite on his head.
Not an enemy, but I shot a turtle in AC4 Black Flag. Intentionally I thought I could craft something out of it. Turns out you couldn't. My GF was shocked and upset I killed it, felt bad afterwards. Lol
I bet you'd LOVE Cannibal Holocaust, lol.

none anymore.
However when I was a kid I had a Simpsons game on the SNES called Krusty's Super Fun House. If you're unfamiliar with it; it's basically a puzzle game where you have to lead rats, infesting Krusty's titular Fun House, into a rat crusher. Crushing the rats upset me so much as a kid, that I refused to play the game and it ended up being the first game I ever traded in. Got Tiny Toons Adventures: Buster Busts Loose out of it so that worked out well.

I finished the second playthrough with the Wolves, and I just couldn't go on. Too much.

Sif
THIS!
I was so mad and angry at Sif when he kept beating the hell out of me.
Then when I almost beaten him, he starts limping and I felt so sorry for him...
Took me some courage to finally deal the final blow!
What an amazing game!

Junior, please.
So many people say this, and I never saw it. First time through the game, I just crushed the shit out of him and never noticed the limp.
Had no idea of the back story, he was just a big evil wolf to me. Now I do feel kinda bad.

Dogs, especially because I have an Alsatian! They're just being good doggies I don't wanna keep stabbing them, CoD

Yes. Absolutely terrible design, I really HATED killing this guy because of how useless it is other than generating a cheap laugh.

Mulligan from Binding of Isaac. You're a crying, naked child and they still run away from you.

Big ones already mentioned. But my pick is Cronos from God of War 3. He is your grandpa and didnt deserve dying

Totally forgot about that guy. Yeah I felt really bad about that. Poor bastard.
Came to post this. The way it plays out and how you feel is testament to how well it's done.

You become immune to this in all those Dark Brotherhood missions in Oblivion. Sorry, were you sleeing? I didn't mean to put my sword through your skull....

You mean Gaia?! She tries to off Kratos when she decides he's no longer any use, and so later on he instead kills her. The bastard deserved it!

That armored guy by the tree in Dark Souls 2. He doesn't attack you unless you do it first, just sits there under the tree, chilling.

Yup.
She gives me a chance to leave, and I do so.
My problem was, I knew of her backstory before running into her.
Could never build the gumption to attack...I'd feel like a dick for doing so.

Generally animals, but especially always dogs and wolves- I hate snapping the dog's neck in some CoD games
Agree. Dogs and wolves. I hate it when they whine while being killed.
Also, I felt so sorry for killing
