I beat Isshin the SS on my very first attempt ever. It's my greatest accomplishment. The same can't be said about the Owl fights and the Demon of Hatred. They worked me over on my first run lol

I have a personal tie for my favorites in this game and they’re for completely different reasons! The Abyss Watchers are so cool they have a great introduction to the fight with you fighting just one guy and you’re like “this is manageable” and then you get smacked with the reality that they’re gonna start jumping you! Then a third one pulls up and completely changes everything about the flow of the fight AND it builds this sad ass atmosphere that you are putting a legendary force to rest for good. It makes me feel bad and I love when bosses do that! I got stuck on this boss for 6 months during my first run and when I beat them I screamed a genuine scrumpt I was so happy Darkeater Midir tho, here’s the thing (and this is just a me thing so I get it if you disagree) I don’t like fighting dragons. Most of the time they share the same few issues with the disorienting camera, moves ya can’t really see, massive hitboxeds on moves ya can’t see cause of the crap camera that deals 70% of your health and can stunlock you into another hit? Yeah, it sucks. Midir doesn’t really run into that problem for me. You mention that it’s kinda lame that the only way to beat him is to fight the way that was seemingly intended, and I can understand that! I kinda like that the only way to kill only remaining true dragon, is to be literally perfect (which is something I think Gael and the Nameless King benefit from too). Make no mistakes, analyze its attack patterns and persevere to slay a freaking capital “D”, Dragon. This fight makes me genuinely feel like that’s what I’m doing! Roleplaying as a dragon slayer and the dragon fights back for real he doesn’t just stomp on the ground or rely on fire breath. He slams his full weight down, he claws at you, he fires a LAZER at you and at the end of it…you did it! It’s everything I love about these games shoved into one fight and I can’t tell which one I like better

sekiro best souls game imo. great atmosphere, great music, great enemy quality, great area’s, BEST COMBAT. man i love sekiro

Love your channel. If it interests you, it would be great to hear your take on the bosses of Lies of P.

I found your channel recently, and want to say massive kudos for having such high quality content for a relatively young channel. Even your early videos are great. Keep up the great work 👍

I quit the game because of the Shinobi Hunter of Misen....twice. Thank god a friend harassed me for like two years until I picked it up again. As a total beginner, this Boss was so unbelievably frustrating. Didn't help that I did Hirata before Gyobu, so I didn't have a lot of practice even with the basic combat system. I still find his thrust attacks to be very difficult to Mikiri for some reason. And man, the gank is just so unnecessary.

At 6:00 regarding the baldur you can beat it with no spell no hit and charm notch I know this works on console but I haven’t check pc but if you go to him jump pause the game it tricks the gaming making the baldur think you not there unpause the game and quickly press the hit button it should work just repeat also love the video

Impressive! I love hollow knight. Looking foreword for your Over Analysis!

Hot take: hollow knight is the best game of all time.

When I did my no upgrades run, (I also did no mask upgrades), I allowed spells just for blitzing through Hollow Knight in order to fight Radiance faster. Cause that run back was brutal and just slow. Even still it took forever.

Your Overanalysis videos are some of my favourite videos on UA-cam, and HollowKnight is one of my favourite games. I'm excited :D

I feel like this belongs to your secondary channel

Thank you for this Geo Financial guide disguised as a Hollow Knight challenge video! 💵

your videos are so good man, all your analysis are so high quality while still being over an hour long

I think the vanilla version though clanky, really isn't that terrible. I don't like how slow everything is, or that you can't cancel out of an attack animation. But, I've just gotten passed lost sinner, before having to move. It definitely is no ds1, or ds3, but it's not an entirely awful game. However I do plan to go to scholar next, so that I can experience the whole experience for myself. Also Pursuer is in the forest on both versions.

I don't know if it was mentioned elsewhere, but the Leonine Misbegotten shares similarities to Margit because they share a common heritage. The misbegotten are remnants of the Primordial Crucible, as is the Omen curse Margit has.

One of my favorite things about Isshin and Sekiro’s relationship is how much trust is inherently in it. They both seem to jive with each other incredibly fast and well. Which helps a lot in the pain of the Shura ending, but for the main games ending, it has less of a sad with more bitter, sweet feel. One of my favorite things about when you get the final slash on Isshin is that slices through his stomach kind of like how it is done in Seppuku and unlike the shura where are we just slices got up and then leave him to die (which is also great for showing how dishonorable we are for going with the Shura ending). We act almost like a second in the true final fight, cutting his head off. Which the second in Seppuku is inherently very trusted person for the one being killed. What are your thoughts on what I’ve said?

Love your videos, hope you get round to lies of P one day. P.s. Titan souls is also amazing

Wow great video! Im not really a big fan of soulslikes so i hope you keep making vids about games like this as well🙌

I like this series. It is fun. I remember being part of the cursed PC release with the render errors. Beat Rahdahhan before waiting for a patch. In my defense, the mobs and bosses were invisible from the render errors.

I just kill all the enemies during the wyvern fight. Then he seems more active (a little) and it’s actually fun then…

I never understood why people hate the bull so much. I think he's easy to fight but you need to approach it differently from a regular boss. Don't try keep pressure on chasing it, bait him and fight him like you'd fight a bull. Stepping aside and getting a thrust in.

Loved the video, coincidently released only a couple of weeks after my first (and immediate second umbrella) playthru. First and foremost, I can't believe i completed 2 playthrus of the game and didn't realize the Grey Crow doesn't have a post fight funeral scene!? It's such a well made deliberate choice on the devs's part. Second, I sooo agree Betty is a low point in the game. To follow up the Urn Witch and the Frog King, who have amazing fights and are both compelling and original characters as well, with "Hey, remember the Titan Souls Yetti?" Is such a let down, specially after the climatic moment at the Crows' Camp. We do diverge in a few points tho. That being the Lord of Doors's and The Gravedigger's fights. The first phase of the Lord of Doors is a very welcomed obstacle sequence that traverses the whole game. (Tho I understand they were going for a more frenectic experience, and the hookshot get's the job done the best, I still find the lack of engagement with the other tools to be a missed opportunity.) The later half of the fight didn't impress much tho. Imo it overrelies on previous bosses' moveset to the point it feels like it was rushed. Rub salt in the wound, the fights it takes the most from are Betty (it even got the bitch side swipe) and Door Guarding. Which makes sense given both are very generic mechanically, and thus, are well suited for recycling. Where as the remaining bosses' movesets are very particular to their fight and character. (I mean, imagine recycling any of the Grey Crow's moves, it would be criminal!) The other point of divergence is the post game epilogue. It's commonly held by the players as a dull collectathon, which i think is underselling quite a bit. Making it nighttime for the first time and seeing the NPC'S nighttime activities and the Lost Cemetery completely quiet and disbanded made for such a strong impression on me. And some of the puzzles in it really felt like a culmination of DD's ingenious puzzle philosophy. (The whole thing reminded alot of Tunic, a good contender for a boss analysis video, adding in a bit a comparing its boss design to DD's would be really interesting). And it leads to my favorite fight in the game... I adore the Gravedigger fight! I found it to be a very hard hitting climax and a satisfying secret final boss fight. I got really emotionally involved with the character thru out the game, much more than with the Grey Crow, and i view their send off as very necessary and well built into the narrative. And regarding the gameplay, I find it the best skill test fight in the whole game, the moveset is simple but original, it's challenging but not annoying or unfair... And, yes, all bosses dance to banger music, but wow, the music on this one goes haaard... It checks my every mark for secret final boss fight. I like the fight so much that the thought of not doing it in my umbrella playthru felt wrong, so I did it and it was amazing. And best all, that's where the game ends! Put Gravedigger's gravedigging days to the grave and move on! Nothing to see past this point. There is absolutely no stupid Titan Souls tie in letdown of an ending after this 😔. Well, those are my thoughts overall. I do have a question tho, why did you ignore my boys/girlies/nb palls the spell upgrade guardians? I really appreciate them as skill check fights. I understand they are optional non-story related fights, but they definately warrant one dedicaded segment imo.

when can we expect the dlc video (roughly)?

BL4 shadows with the snakes is epic. Rolling away from the chomp. Some of the most fun I have ever had playing. To add, you never mentioned damage reductions. Defiled chalice behooves you to be mindful of it. Up your fire reduction for Keeper and Watchdog and you don't get one shot with at least 40 vitality, which is what it appeared you had. Depth 4 and 5, Lake runes help a lot.

You got great editing and writing, keep it up bro

Very solid video. Although this is definitely were my opinion differs most with you. Between me considering Malenia an easy S tier. While Radagon is barely a B, he just does not click with me. Same with Malakeith. The beast clergyman is an absolute pain while the black blade is easy in comparison, he makes far more sense than mr jumpy. Definitely enjoy this style of full analysis, going to check out your other soul videos soon.

You can play this game for free if you have a Netflix account. I'm only like halfway through it, but honestly it's not a bad little game so far.

Fuck the magma wyrm in fort whateverthefuck genuinely one of my most hated enemies. He has caused untold torment to me, I have killed every member of his species with ease EXCEPT HIM! He is the only one to kill me, no matter the build, no matter the level, he is still a pain.

Old Monk, C? In 2009 fighting a real player for a boss fight was a big deal. This boss fight stood out, so it's an A or S. True King Allant: "This fight doesn't add anything to the closing moments of the game" Sure buddy. You're entitled to your opinion...

Grime next? Or maybe Sundered? Indies have some games with awesome boss fights, love to see this

What would your opinion be on the Minotaur style enemies in those rooms with the chests? I can see them being viewed as more mini-boss enemies but they were definitely challenging with well constructed movesets

Crazy I just finished it today and you released this video, love to see it

Very cool video, can you analyze the bosses from Cocoon next?

You should absolutely start analyzing other soulslikes, I’m sure lies of p, stellar blade, and even lords of the fallen would do numbers

Will you talk about lies of p

AYYYYY DEATH'S DOOR!!!!!! I'm so fucking happy to see Death's Door being talked about at all, one of my most favorite games of all time. I want to play as a raven again

DEATHS DOOR MENTIONED!!!! I love this game so much, and is by far the best peice of art I have played through this year. I love how minimal it is, it is just so beautiful to me 🤩

Oh this was NOT what I expected, I’m absolutely excited to see it though

I’ve never played this game but it looks like a great one! That froggy boss looks amazing

I do think the combat system actually shines better in the arenas than the bosses, but the bosses are also pretty alright.

Oh hell yeah, Deaths Door time! If there's any major points I can think of in terms of gameplay notes and such I'll make this a thread, but if not, I'll just enjoy the video as usual :3

25:35 I really wish Fromsoft had made Horse combat more engaging because besides using Torrent to close distance or create distance, it's not really all that fun to do combat as a whole on Torrent.

Why didn't you mention Astel is recycled?

28:43 I would imagine this fight would’ve been so much more difficult for me had I not killed the third memory boss Corrupted Monk. This boss taught me how to play the game, spending nearly 3 hours on her. Made Genichiro and most other bosses very trivial afterwards

Great vid, I love seeing a lot of smaller bosses getting proper analysis. Also it's interesting how you speculate on the weeping peninsula's purpose as a training zone. As that is exactly my assumption and how my first playthrough went. I felt underpowered in Limgrave, but in the weeping peninsula it felt correct and I was learning and discovering slowly. Along with the fact that the area is the only thing south so it feels like you're suppose to go explore down there as a little startup. Also Smurag being avoidable is almost 100% intentional and so fucking welcome on repeats, because yeah dragons in Elden Ring get really fucking old before you hit Altus.

No Inner boss analysis?

The problems with Malenia are so depressing because Waterfowl single handedly ruins that fight so badly for me. Malenia takes a lot of her move set ideology from a mix of Beast Clergyman and Margit, with how almost all of her moves can chain into each other in a wildly different number of potential combos. Waterfowl is the only move in her move set that she will continuously respond as her get off me move. This move however, is most optimally dodged at mid to long range so why is this her response for get off? It's downright insulting, they could have avoided this whole scenario if they just gave her hyper armor and a different super move. I often get reminded of Rellana, arguably Fromsofts best badass female boss, she has hyper armor in a sense that she just isn't interrupted by standard attacks and is much more interesting to fight, especially with how many ways there are to create openings. For example, on her long double swings (diagonal) they are able to be avoided by starfirst heavy attacks. It's actually so interesting that her hitboxes are this polished, but more importantly that she has this type of variation. Malenia has this too with many jumping and strafing openings, the problem is no one actually wants to test that because you would have to deal with Waterfowl, I don't have the patience to learn the up-close dodge so I have to proc waterfowl like it's a status effect than go back to having fun. On another note, if Rellana had half the buildup of Malenia with a amazing cutscene to boot she would be legit by my favorite fromsoft boss she is that fun. Even though you have been talked to death about it, Maliketh is definitely one of their best bosses ever, but mainly due to how fucking awesome beast clergyman is. Nearly everything is jumpable / jump ashes openings. Just try Beast Clergy man with Wing stance, I legit could use the heavy as a punish for half his move set. By comparison Maliketh's role is that of the ultimate positioning boss, almost half of his follow ups will miss if you try to close the gap on him. A lot of his moves are jumpable, but not for a punish, more so for just another way to dodge. I know everyone has a boss that they just don't understand why everyone likes them (Mine is Orphan) so I get that, but I implore you to try again to see if the boss is possible to be fun in another way. Lastly, I wanted to touch on the idea that the side bosses can be mediocre, but I would argue that they are more often than not extremely fun in their own right. Take Leonine arguably the best side boss besides the crucible knights, he is always given a twist or something different from the original fight. The one in calid is about the speed you can burst a Leonine down before taking on a crucible knight, testing the DPS of your build. The one in consecrated snow field is given a legendary weapon and some moves that go along with the theme of the golden order. The last one of note in Altus is about avoiding or killing an amped up Leonine while Tricia is there to buff him (We don't talk about Miranda encounter). The Crucible knights are a bit harder to defend, but the boss variants are all really well done, like they all work in favor of jumping openings. The double spin can be out spaced the first one and jump heavied the second, and the wings can be jumped, or you can run away and roll to him to get a punish. Crucible knights offer a lot of combat expression so the uniqueness of the encounter can depend on how you change your style each time. Duelists are just really unique and fun enemies that you can play around with a lot like crucible knights, and overall are some of their best side bosses (up there with the death knights in the DLC). Cemetary shades are extremely vulnerable to holy and are testing your ability to link that together and punish. Unironically love Ulcerated tree spirits, I think their move sets being mainly position based so you can just avoid an entire attack by running to the position to get a massive punish is awesome. Don't really like the cats but don't hate them. Ancient heroes are fun and have a great variety of attacks but are definitely designed to be blitzed to death before they reach phase 2, even though it's a really cool phase. Late game or elite enemies are really good as side bosses and feel like a sneak peak of what the future can hold. TLDR: Most bosses in ER have a purpose and can often be really interesting when viewed from that angle.
