Every single boss fight except for Griff was hilarious with Partitio. The tiny dog becomes a massive beast, you fight a dude and a literal steam engine, then you fight a choo choo train.
So the best part about the dog is that it might not be a giant dog. All of the boss sprites are exaggerated in size to show more detail, and as a homage to some of the older Final Fantasy games, which did the same things. This is to say... the boss fight was just someone's pitbull. A really strong pitbull, but just a normal sized dog which is honestly way funner.
@@MythicMachina And also the fact that there are four people fighting said dog and you can die to him. Not to mention that he’s carrying 30k leaves for some reason lmao
@@xcenex479 Holy shit, does Garnet (the dog) have one of the highest Collect amounts in the game? I'm sure there's more, but I remember no boss getting close for a while!
Other characters to grandchildren: I used my weapons, potions, magic or monsters to defeat the boss! Partitio: I beat ups a whole steam engine with my bare fists and some quarters because I was madder then tarnation!!
If I had a nickel for every time a Square Enix character beat up a train with bare fists, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice
Roque: Fool! Did you think you can take down this marvelous obsidian train with your bare hands? Partitio and Alrond: No...but he can *hires Sabin* LET'S GET TO WORK!!
Honestly, I really liked the kind of subtle, pro-Capitalist message (I know some people on gamefaqs wouldn't call it subtle, but I think it is) of Partitio's story. It's just so cool that uses his merchant talents to convince a billionaire to invest in his ideals, and it pays off in such a satisfying manner.
@@graceli1903 lmfao I saw some people raging on that site because they hated Alrond not being a one dimensional villain 😂 Some people want the writing to be worse just to fit their personal ideals
@@graceli1903honestly the best way to describe Partitio's ideals are anti-capitalistic capitalism. It has a focus on trickle down economics and the avoidance of late stage capitalism

On the other hand, no amount of therapy will ever completely fix Throne and Temenos... Throne earned her freedom while Temenos managed to uncover the truth, but the two lost almost everything in the process...
I started with Ochette, then got Throné, then got Osvald… in that order, final bosses, and also in the order of who I got first. Now I only have Hikari to finish.
Seriously, I mean if you think about it influence wise Partitio is only second to HIKARI by the end of his story. Solistia's two most important men just being bros
@@jayguthrie262 and the fact that the heir himself acknowledged this fact a few times especially at the end of Parti's story, makes it all the more sweeter.
@@TheElementsAreWithMe Its also hinted that (MAJOR SPOILERS to people who haven't faced the final boss) The reason the shroud of darkness didn't envelop the entire world once all the 8 god's lights were burned out and Vide didn't overwhelm the world immediately was because the ritual for the last two was incomplete. The two lights were snuffed out but it also needed a dark sacrifice, but Ori, one of the disciples of darkness, chose hope at the last moment because Partitio inspired her, and she stopped her sacrifice. We have no idea how horrible the state of the world would of been if the 4 part ritual was completed perfectly. Partitio was the bringer of a Hope strong enough weaken the threads of an entire apocalypse. What an absolute madlad.
@9751matt that much is obvious. "The Shadow" may have not reared its head in either his or Agnea's stories, but that in itself was it's own clue. It saw them the least threatening because they were making a world a better place on the surface, while the other travelers wether they realized it or not was going much deeper into the bone. All the same their stories reveal that they not only have what it takes to beat the dark God, but they have their own reasons to run Vide's fade.
Partitio was my main. I remember going, "No way!" when his theme started up and worked its way into the final boss theme. I'm so glad they did this with the other characters, too. Got me so pumped every time.
Imma be honest, I didn't even realize that each character's Final Story Boss has its own theme. That is awesome! I knew they all had their own music that loops before you hit the button to start a story critical boss fight, but seeing this extra level of detail just makes me love this game even more!

Just finished Partitio's chapter. I wonder if his prototype is the Parsi merchants. They both see earning money as an aim as bring happiness to everyone (while the Parsi have their religious reasons), spent huge amount of own money on social development selfishness (which is quite different with the capitalists nowadays). The Parsi religion worshiping holy fire just like the religion in this game. And the resemble of the name between Partitio and Parsi.
Plenty of capitalists claim to do strive for Partitio wants, though it's mostly performative and you can't tell if they're being genuine or not most of the time. Partitio's unique because he 1. genuinely wanted to help people and 2. actually had the charisma and talent of selling people things to make it come true.
I got my first chubby cait with soul stones (and a bit of luck) well before finishing anyone’s stories. As for conjurer, they could’ve done the stories one at a time (like I did) and thus were super powerful for the last 2 or 3 characters.

they are the therapy
The fifth final chapter I did and with Partitio's theme being so distinct only then I noticed everyone gets a unique version of this song lol
Same for me but with Temenos, who i did third I think.
It was kind of a reverse for me, started with Hikari, and after I did the others. I too only realised at Partitio tho lol
I started with Ochette, then got Throné, then got Osvald… in that order, final bosses, and also in the order of who I got first. Now I only have Hikari to finish.
Osvald gets his own badassed version
I never realized until I was looking it up online.
Having partitio be my protagonist while i finished his story last made this version of journey of x ends very special to me
Now this is a boss theme, but not for the villain but the hero. Because the hero IS a boss, in every sense of the word.
