Privateer II -- which was ashame, because Privateer (or Wing Commander fame) was one of the best games ever.
But in Privateer II, in the early game, your space ship has puny weapons which are incapible of doing any damage to attacking pirates. Plus, you can't space-jump until all nearby enemies are destroyed. Each enemy has their own taunt, which they repeat over, and over, and over, and over.
As a practical matter, the game last until you attacked by the first pirate you run across. It doesn't help to do a cheat by setting your ship to "Indestructable" because that only means the attack (and taunting) by the pirate will last forever.
