DEMONIK DARKNESS not really a boss but he is the last named npc you have to fight in the main story so you'd think he'd atleast be a bit tougher than his goons.

"This is a fight against Sauron, who spent most of the films doing-" *"AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"* Got me way too hard, never change.
what about MB from Metroid: Other M, thats literally just put your cursor on the boss for a few seconds and then she's dead. But I guess I can see why you wouldn't consider that a boss battle
Top Wrong-Genre-Savvy Characters in Video Games (bring on the tropes) Top NPCs who should have REALLY been the Main Character Top Most Likeable Villains/Antagonists in Video Games
With the transfers being Jecht then I would have thought that Yu Yevon would have been number 1. Not being able to die and to a boss with a little grinding, you can one shot. Fun right?
Gonna be honest, Bowser from Sticker Star has to be the worst final boss I've ever faced. Like the second phase is pathetic, you can KO Bowser in one turn if played right.
and don't forget the fact that you can't use jump attacks for most of the fight and you'll probably mostly have jump attacks the first time you try the fight
I wouldn't really call the Deathstroke tank fight from Arkham Knight the true 'final boss'... BUT I HATE IT WITH A BURNING PASSION ANYWAY, so thank you for pointing that out.
For me it will always be Skyrims Alduin. The most disappointing thing ever. All the hyper for the god of dragons that was created by the other gods to end the world, that dies in the same way as every other dragon in the game......
Hi RabbidLuigi! I love your content and I love the fact that I don't have to go to another website to suggest or vote for a countdown video. Also your personality is very welcoming. Anyways... *Top 10 Word Games* plzzzzzz
Top ten/five games that made you think. Games like Spec Ops: the Line (I'm sure you'll love to put that one the list), games that really fuck with how you perceive the world.
Hilariously, from what I`ve discovered about number 1, the company actually made it like it is because it was the only option they had when it comes to in-universe story, since the protagonist was pretty much at the end of both his life and his strength by the time the final boss appears and thus he was physically unable to fight the final boss like we expect the final boss to be fought as. Yes, it`s still pretty downgrading for the entire core game, but it makes absolute sense in-universe. If you wish the true extend of how Monolith can do final boss fights, then The Bright Lord DLC is your answer because its final boss fight is *amazing* . I, personally, went through it 3 times, 2 times without even using the One (since yes, you can beat the final boss of TBL without using the full power of the One, but it demands agility, mad aim, tactical mind and quite a lot of patience as well as determination), and I`m still wishing to replay it.
Crash 2, Uncharted 1 and 3, Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Galaxy 2, Mega Man 6, There are certainly a lot of contenders for this list. I would love to see some of your Top 5 lists redone as Top 10s.
One of my favourite boss fights from a shooter is actually 2016's DOOM. I feel all of the bosses actually require skill, knowledge of the boss and agility to actually take them down (they're not just bullet sponges)
Top 5/10 best or worst things about online gaming (i.e. toxic communities, internet connections) Also, does anyone else wish that Terry Crews was the VA for Doomfist? (I wanted to pawnch people with POWERRRRR!!!)
Agreed. I think for the character Blizzard was trying to make, I think the voice fits very well. Terry Crews would be better for a bombastic, almost Junkrat-like character.
One thing that I think is a large contributor to unintentionally bad bosses is when the boss is hyped a lot and/or their greatest strength is hard to portray with the rest of the games' mechanics. Since I don't make video games, but I do DM a game of D&D I can say that I have a similar problem when I try to hype the Big Bad but when I pit them against the party they fall flat, because I tried too hard for thematic evil instead of making an actuall enemy. It doesn't excuse all of the ones on this list, but I think it's why Sauron is a QTE, because he's SO big and SO bad that the game can't really portray his power without making it ridiculously one-sided. (Disclaimer, this is my opinion and is not based on anything but my own views as a DM and a gamer)
Sort of reminds me of a criticism of Fire Emblem stories when someone asked why all of the villains have to be so strong, rather than mere tacticians or masterminds.
We all know Cortex in Crash 2 is a lame final boss. Can't really say anything about the actual bosses on this list, though. ...Sly 3 and Sly 4's final bosses in my opinion sucked.
That guy from Mirror's Edge has to be on here. The buildup to the ending was so engaging but then the final boss is just walking around some blocks and a quicktime event.
Spoiler I really hated the Takumi fight in FE: Conquest. I don't know if it's my least favorite, but it's definitely up there. Also, even though he's a boss in 3 other chapters, he didn't really do anything to deserve to be the final boss. That just goes to show how bad writing was though. #BlameTakumi
Schu Fighters At least the final bosses of Birthright and Revelations made up for it. The final boss of Fire Emblem: Thracia 776 is the only one that game's got, and it's one of the most anticlimactic I've ever fought in a tactical RPG (a genre not known for bosses in general).
Cartoon Critic The _Revelations_ boss made up for it? 90% of that fight is walking into position and trying not to have your characters bullied by decently powerful enemies so they can smack the dragon's hand once before they lose usefulness because only one person can be on the space to damage the core at a time (unless magic/bows of course, but when I played I only had one other character other than myself with magic on my squad and he was fighting off grunts). Plus, four health bars is way too tedious to be enjoyable for a fire emblem game, in my opinion.
AeroandCyndar Your point about the four health bars is fair enough. Even still, if we're talking about tedious final bosses, that doesn't even compare to Radiant Dawn's final boss. Nine. HP. Bars. And several of those can regenerate, adding even more tedium. And if you make the mistake of killing it with someone other than Ike, it recovers ALL of that.
Schu Fighters Takumi was one of the main antagonists of FE Fates Conquest, so idk how he wouldn't deserve to be the final boss. The game even hints that there's some otherworldly force controlling him, and by the final boss it's taken full control and he's nothing but a husk of anger and hatred. He was at least not just another dragon like in Awakening, Birthright, Revelation or Echoes (no flame to those games it's just good to have some diversity every now and then), and is actually pretty difficult. Nor do I see how someone being a boss has anything to do with a game's writing, since that's gameplay alone.
"Bosses in shooter games are a joke" Alec (006) from Goldeneye 007 on Wii is a complete joke. He just runs from cover to cover and only shoots you if you completely ignore him. Not to mention that you can just block his way and pistol/melee him until he decides to run away from the fight... and this game got 10/10 HOW?!
As a diehard fan of Shadow of Mordor, I considered the "final boss" to be that epic battle with the Hand. Talion and the Warchiefs against your nemesis and the five Talons of the Hand. The fight against the Tower (not Sauron) seemed to be more of an epilogue. That said, if your Warchiefs are strong and you've got tons of abilities unlocked, the battle against the Hand is still quite easy.
It's not "built entirely around a random number generator". There are still some consistent patterns in place, for example, the AI of most enemies and bosses. And while I admit having a boss with random attacks CAN be fun, it's how the Delirium fight is executed that makes him extremely annoying: -It can morph into the Adversary and hit you with a homing brimstone from across the room -It can telefrag you in some of the forms(not sure if it's been fixed or not) -The random projectile spam can be extremely hard to dodge given that your hitbox isn't as small as in "true" bullet hell games -It's so goddamn tanky it's not fun -It's immune to Chaos Card and Plan C(aka your only hope of beating such bosses as The Lost)
The worst part about the Sauron fight is that there IS a really awesome battle with him, but it's locked behind DLC.
6 ปีที่แล้ว
the Randomness of Delirium reminded me of a different "boss" which turned into random bosses...but it had so much health it was pretty much impossible to beat until i got lucky and it mimicked EASIER earlier bosses several times in a row.
The final boss being a cutscene where you push buttons when prompted has sadly become common in a lot of games. Dying Light, God of War 3, and just about every Call of Duty game does this.
I totally agree with deathstroke from arkham knight I was so hype to fight him but got so disappointed that it was literally the arkham knight tank boss again
The sad thing about AC2's final boss is that it's mostly ruined by an infamous bug: if you become Notorious during the trek to Rodrigo, you're stuck with the Notorious theme for the final boss fight and won't actually get the true theme. The song really does make it more epic and climactic so it's such a shame it's marred for many people by this one problem.
the end for shadow of mordor was kinda disappointing but they made up for it in the Bright Lord DLC where you actually fight Sauron (along with every warchief). It's a fantastic fight.
The Bright Lord DLC actually gave you a really good fight against Sauron. It was a little finicky with the One Ring but frankly that makes sense. No average shmuck could contest him, no matter how well trained.
Genuinely surprised that General Sebastiano Di Ravello from Just Cause 3 isn't on here. I mean you spend a good portion of the game fighting choppers, and the final boss is... another chopper... but it's gold? Plus you've just destroyed a huge military base in which there are at least 3 of the model of chopper he uses after you at all times, and you didn't have a huge nuke-rocket launcher to destroy them like you do in the final boss.
tbh for me the final boss in borderlands 2 was kinda under whelming since you have to get through handsom jack first which again for me was a challenge but all you have to do to beat the warrior easily is to die once, spawn outside the barrier, climb a high enough ledge to shoot over the barrier, and finally take out a sniper rifle and start shooting it and just drop down to the ammo refill and climb back up again. idk why the developers allowed that to happen since the build up was their and could have been a much more better way to end the game rather then just take shots at it for 20+ mins
The trick to boss fights in shooter games is one a lot of companies have a really hard time understanding. Boss fights don't need to be about a single really big enemy. Gauntlets with no 'boss' at the end of them are very challenging and exhilarating on their own. If you feel there needs to be a singular boss, then have him be surrounded by a couple dozen of his closest friend. Many games, regardless of genre, are about fighting off large numbers of enemies (or sneaking past them). And WAY too many games decide to drop all that and say "Now you need to just fight this one guy," or "You just need to fight this one guy and these easy to kill adds.". Guild Wars 1 handled this perfectly, where the boss itself was only about 20% of the challenge in a boss fight. You could even stun-lock or otherwise CC the boss throughout the whole fight if you really wanted to, but that did nothing about his almost as powerful 7 other allies.
Kid Icarus: Uprising is a fun twist on the typical shooter, its unconventional weapons, dodging, frantic attacks from enemies, and lack of cover in most situations make it quite different from your CODs or DOOMs. As such, the bosses are mostly good, the exception being the Arum Generator, which has you on grind rails the whole time.
I'm curious on your opinion of Asura's Wrath, given your final remark in the video. The game is a "mix" of third person brawler and QTE filled cutscenes, 5 hours of them. This includes the final boss. In fact, it includes all the bosses. The game's whole style revolves around beating the enemies to a state that you can enter the QTE cutscene to actually finish the fight. However, these cutscenes are, in most cases, fully voice acted, well choreographed, and, similar to what you brought up earlier, immersive due to the heavy emphasis on the QTE segments. you get a true feel for being in the fight as your inputs directly correlate with Asura or Yasha, and, SPOILERS AHEAD: SPOILERS FOR FINAL BOSS LAST CHANCE When you finally meet your god, in the biggest clash the game can throw at you, the style is cranked up to the point that the final boss has their own button inputs. This almsot gives the feel that you, as the player, are yourself a god, guiding Asura as you directly input for him, or that Asura himself was already on the level of a god, as the inputs have been there the whole time. the QTE segments are probably the best parts of the game, and do encompass the final boss, so I"m wondering, is it alright for a QTE cutscene boss if the game's entire style revolved around that form the get go?

I don't need to even watch this to know that jasper batt or whatever his name was from no more heroes two on here.
I felt that the camera being the final boss in dark souls 3 was too predictable and undermined the entire build up before it.
what about MB from Metroid: Other M, thats literally just put your cursor on the boss for a few seconds and then she's dead. But I guess I can see why you wouldn't consider that a boss battle

and don't forget the fact that you can't use jump attacks for most of the fight and you'll probably mostly have jump attacks the first time you try the fight
Super Boot plus megaflash jumps and that's a one turn final boss. Tested.
I mean bad final boss for a bad game, goes hand in hand. If you enjoyed Sticker Star then good for you but I hate that game with a passion.
I'm with you there.
Don't forget the fact that his first form required way too much trial and error, way more then any of the bosses in the game!
I wouldn't really call the Deathstroke tank fight from Arkham Knight the true 'final boss'...
BUT I HATE IT WITH A BURNING PASSION ANYWAY, so thank you for pointing that out.

Perhaps Top 5 Fighting Game Bosses that you've faced can be next?
As a diehard fan of Shadow of Mordor, I considered the "final boss" to be that epic battle with the Hand. Talion and the Warchiefs against your nemesis and the five Talons of the Hand. The fight against the Tower (not Sauron) seemed to be more of an epilogue.
That said, if your Warchiefs are strong and you've got tons of abilities unlocked, the battle against the Hand is still quite easy.
Since you brought up Batt, your playthrough of NMH2 made me realize that fight would have worked better if Batt was just another guy to kill.
Hey, at least they fixed the Sauron fight in The Bright Lord DLC.
I feel like the more videos you make, the less I want to play the Binding of Isaac Rebirth
In defense of Delirium, the idea of a boss in a roguelike, randomized game effectively being randomized is *genius.*
Bowser from galaxy 2, you are pulled to the only thing that can beat him and they put a big ass star around where to hit it to kill the giant turtle
Considering that Binding of Issac is built entirely around a random number generator, it only makes sense to have boss with random patterns.
It's not "built entirely around a random number generator". There are still some consistent patterns in place, for example, the AI of most enemies and bosses. And while I admit having a boss with random attacks CAN be fun, it's how the Delirium fight is executed that makes him extremely annoying:
-It can morph into the Adversary and hit you with a homing brimstone from across the room
-It can telefrag you in some of the forms(not sure if it's been fixed or not)
-The random projectile spam can be extremely hard to dodge given that your hitbox isn't as small as in "true" bullet hell games
-It's so goddamn tanky it's not fun
-It's immune to Chaos Card and Plan C(aka your only hope of beating such bosses as The Lost)
The worst part about the Sauron fight is that there IS a really awesome battle with him, but it's locked behind DLC.
the Randomness of Delirium reminded me of a different "boss" which turned into random bosses...but it had so much health it was pretty much impossible to beat until i got lucky and it mimicked EASIER earlier bosses several times in a row.

Morgoth: Hm? (Steers into the distance while watering plants)
The final boss being a cutscene where you push buttons when prompted has sadly become common in a lot of games. Dying Light, God of War 3, and just about every Call of Duty game does this.
Top 5 Games That Change Direction Halfway Though.
Not sure how you could do a video on that, but I'd be interested to see you try.
Rabbidluigi always makes me laugh and that will stay as an unchanging fact
I really like Delirium _in theory..._
In defence of Shadow of Mordor, the Bright Lord DLC actually had a pretty challenging Sauron fight.
I wish shooter game boss fights would be agile, a small target, and runs around the other side of your cover.
Now you have make a top 5 list that combines bosses with Easter eggs and your channel has gone full circle.
What is the music used in your end-card in this video? I reconize it from somewhere but I never had the chance to know it's name.
I totally agree with deathstroke from arkham knight I was so hype to fight him but got so disappointed that it was literally the arkham knight tank boss again
What's the music used on the end slate?
I would like to know as well. It's so familiar but can never place it! D:
The sad thing about AC2's final boss is that it's mostly ruined by an infamous bug: if you become Notorious during the trek to Rodrigo, you're stuck with the Notorious theme for the final boss fight and won't actually get the true theme. The song really does make it more epic and climactic so it's such a shame it's marred for many people by this one problem.
6:09 The only way to really beat it is to break the game or have the stopwatch. I lucked out with a broken stopwatch.
the end for shadow of mordor was kinda disappointing but they made up for it in the Bright Lord DLC where you actually fight Sauron (along with every warchief). It's a fantastic fight.
The Bright Lord DLC actually gave you a really good fight against Sauron. It was a little finicky with the One Ring but frankly that makes sense. No average shmuck could contest him, no matter how well trained.
Genuinely surprised that General Sebastiano Di Ravello from Just Cause 3 isn't on here. I mean you spend a good portion of the game fighting choppers, and the final boss is... another chopper... but it's gold? Plus you've just destroyed a huge military base in which there are at least 3 of the model of chopper he uses after you at all times, and you didn't have a huge nuke-rocket launcher to destroy them like you do in the final boss.
tbh for me the final boss in borderlands 2 was kinda under whelming since you have to get through handsom jack first which again for me was a challenge but all you have to do to beat the warrior easily is to die once, spawn outside the barrier, climb a high enough ledge to shoot over the barrier, and finally take out a sniper rifle and start shooting it and just drop down to the ammo refill and climb back up again. idk why the developers allowed that to happen since the build up was their and could have been a much more better way to end the game rather then just take shots at it for 20+ mins
Everytime he's like "I'm old" I stare at my screen like im in the Office and go "I'm gonna be 25 soon!!"
The trick to boss fights in shooter games is one a lot of companies have a really hard time understanding.
Boss fights don't need to be about a single really big enemy.
Gauntlets with no 'boss' at the end of them are very challenging and exhilarating on their own. If you feel there needs to be a singular boss, then have him be surrounded by a couple dozen of his closest friend.
Many games, regardless of genre, are about fighting off large numbers of enemies (or sneaking past them). And WAY too many games decide to drop all that and say "Now you need to just fight this one guy," or "You just need to fight this one guy and these easy to kill adds.".
Guild Wars 1 handled this perfectly, where the boss itself was only about 20% of the challenge in a boss fight. You could even stun-lock or otherwise CC the boss throughout the whole fight if you really wanted to, but that did nothing about his almost as powerful 7 other allies.
I think this list was done before a LONG time ago because I remember Rabbidluigi talking about the Joker from Arkham Asylum
Honestly, Vulcan Raven from MGS1 is a better example of incorporating stealth in a Boss fight than MGS3's The End.
Top newspaper-headline following day:
"Man dies from ingesting gravel after having played too much of the video game God of War"
I would say the Alien Mothership at the end of Crysis. It glitched out half of the time, and you couldn't kill it
i miss cutscenes when you could just watch yourself an interesting scene without the need for a controller in your hand
Kid Icarus: Uprising is a fun twist on the typical shooter, its unconventional weapons, dodging, frantic attacks from enemies, and lack of cover in most situations make it quite different from your CODs or DOOMs. As such, the bosses are mostly good, the exception being the Arum Generator, which has you on grind rails the whole time.

Jasper Batt Jr. was intentionally disappointing because Suda 51 wanted the player to learn that revenge isn't satisfying
I'm curious on your opinion of Asura's Wrath, given your final remark in the video. The game is a "mix" of third person brawler and QTE filled cutscenes, 5 hours of them. This includes the final boss. In fact, it includes all the bosses. The game's whole style revolves around beating the enemies to a state that you can enter the QTE cutscene to actually finish the fight. However, these cutscenes are, in most cases, fully voice acted, well choreographed, and, similar to what you brought up earlier, immersive due to the heavy emphasis on the QTE segments. you get a true feel for being in the fight as your inputs directly correlate with Asura or Yasha, and, SPOILERS AHEAD:
SPOILERS FOR FINAL BOSS
LAST CHANCE
When you finally meet your god, in the biggest clash the game can throw at you, the style is cranked up to the point that the final boss has their own button inputs. This almsot gives the feel that you, as the player, are yourself a god, guiding Asura as you directly input for him, or that Asura himself was already on the level of a god, as the inputs have been there the whole time.
the QTE segments are probably the best parts of the game, and do encompass the final boss, so I"m wondering, is it alright for a QTE cutscene boss if the game's entire style revolved around that form the get go?
you can say what you want about delirium, but you cannot deny his theme is amazing!
good video as usual. just one question, what game was the number transition from? that looks intriguing
