Complaint about how the game handles failure

[MooseTheScared]

There are several occasions in the game when the monsters do not disappear until you find a way to get past them.
And you never know after how many deaths each monster is going to disappear. I once was killed, respawned and ran forward feeling very confident because I thought that the bad guy was gone. And he suddenly appeared just in front of me making my pants wet, although this time I survived the encounter.
