He's so honorable he doesn't attack you when you get stuck in a knock down cutscene, instead he just asks you for all you got still and waits for you to get up!
Edge was the best boss in the game. He encourages you to be better, and his quote about you two not actually battling one another but fighting yourself instead really hammered home that all mistakes made in the fight were yours.
@@Kreatin40 This is late but all the fights can be done extreamly quickly with the knowledge and timing to do so. This one is, for the most part, purely parrying which a lot of people are not great at. So depending on the person it can take a lot longer.
I dunno, I might need to do this fight a few more times, but during my first playthrough I could not rush him like this video shows. I felt forced into basically just countering and dodging only when required. It got to a point where following through after a counter was becoming a liability because the QT does not help at all and harms you if you fail it. Aesthetically one of the top bosses, but mechanically it felt like a step backwards from all the rest. Especially after The Burst, I felt so constrained and only acted after he did.
This whole fight is based off of Miyamoto Musashi vs Sasaki Kojiro. Sasaki is actually our protagonist, and Miyamoto is The Edge. Miyamoto was going to lose to Sasaki, but he fought him with a wooden paddle and ended up killing Sasaki.
@@baofusan2669 My understanding was that Musashi did his research on his opponent. His opponents strenghts were his size and strength, and his large Nodachi (Big Katana), further extending his reach. Sasaki's weaknesses were just his anger problems. So Musashi showed up to the duel pretending to be drunk with unkempt hair, disrespecting the duel, with "Just" an oar..an oar that musashi made sure that was exactly 1 foot longer than Sasaki's Nodachi. Because Sasaki was FURIOUS he didn't realise the reach advantage of the oar. The duel ended immediately because Musashi stepped forward and immediately BONKED Sasaki on the head, stunning him, and then bonked him to death.
The fight is based on Miyamoto Musashi's duel with Sasaki Kojiro in which both met on an island, referenced in game as the small boat, and faced off with Kojiro weilding a sword and Musashi a wooden oar. Mushashi of course won the duel with said wooden oar.
The fight and the character I think draws very heavily from Musashi's life which is amazing. The duelist/self improving mentality of the edge, along with all of the weapons in his phases being in likeness to the way he was said to fight. It's a really tasteful homage to a great warrior legend.
@@magejag2977 in phase 2/3 sometimes when you charge your slash he will go to the edge of the pier and become invulnerable while charging his own. There’s a small window before he dashes forward where you can get a free charged hit on him. You can parry it too, but perfect parries when he has the oar don’t do any damage.
There are two types of people who play this game: Those who are great against the Burst and suck against the Edge, or vice versa. Most people get the parrying down, but those who are more straightforward tend to do better against the Burst.
The Burst was alright for me. The Edge got me many times but I never gave up. He was just always saying something motivational. The Star can eat my ass, however.
This 100%. I managed to beat the burst first go but sucked so badly on this fight. I did beat him around 50 attempts and got jedi master achievement so I ain't complaining, Awesome fight!
the only difficult thing for me where two things in the fight. that he sometimes fakes his attack (I too often react to the visuals not the sound design) and that when he hits you he hits you hard.
TSZARIFBUJ I not a fan of Anime either, but at least I can recognize that Furi borrows a lot of design and themes from the genre and general Japanese culture. It's not like it’s 100% anime either.
Best fight in the game, and just one of the better boss fight I've played in all of Video Games. I just had to smile in some parts, like when you figure out a good way to dodge the waves in the third/fourth phases can be done by dodging backwards then forwards, and then you also figure out some places where you can sneak attacks in.... it's just great. Love the high damage as well, makes the fight more high stakes, makes mistakes more impactful. Just really well done, I seldom see this in a game, let alone one that's quite as obscure as this one.
I like that the other guardians who fight Rider tell him how much of a horrible person he is and wishes the worst for him or try to fix him. Then there's The Edge who just wants to have a good fight with him and nothing else, that's probably the reason why he took the position as another guardian
This boss fight was so good. Honest head to head battle between two warriors. Some of his voice lines made me think of fighting games. Then when it switched to 2D mode I was convinced those lines weren't a coincident. Such a great game.
This fight was much for me like the Alice Twilight battle in NMH 2, an honorable battle where in the next you realize that nothing else matters anymore. You've been killing mindlessly and look where it got you.
@@rouhsifbenschop7074 Late answer, but I DGAF. Voice is architector of a prison and maybe he knew some tricky ways how to avoid the rules of those enters.
@@LaRubiarubina Furi was a walking simulator as well I completed the game but was annoyed at the fact u had to walk 10 minutes in order to reach the next boss and nothing is happening during that time u cannot even skip the walking...
"Is there anything else you want to show me? Or is that it? " Like I'm done with you you afro-headed pro- motivational samurai. It's like The Stranger is fighting his teacher, The Edge.
I realized I had been playing it wrong after this guy. Alone I can train the version of me that I see inside. The edge trained the versions of me everyone else sees instead. I had been playing by rules nobody had ever written. I had allowed my perspective to bond me to a reality that wasn't really there, but I needed it to be to protect my ego. That's what he meant by fighting ourselves. I kept myself from becoming the best of me.
After several boss fights of the bosses constantly gaslighting you, it was such a relief to face a boss who actually respects you and wants you to do your best
So his quote: “Excellence is not an art, it's pure habit. We are what we repeatedly do." is literally his fight: you don't need any strategy, you don't need fancy charged attacks: all you need is pure habit: The edge has very clear patterns and you can learn them, for example: when he spins his sword a little he will do an attack of two delayed hits, and when he just takes his sword near his chest it will be a 3 combo attack (if i am not mistaken cuz i played this game like a month ago)
The Edge is one of the hardest fights on your first playthrough. His attacks deal an insane amount of damage compared to other bosses but it's super telegraphed so once you're familiar with what he does it's easy to perfect it.
The most epic fight and most epic music. It’s so sad how he waited so long and trained so hard just to die a painful death buts why I love this so much.
I enjoyed this fight although it kinda pissed me off whenever he'd just randomly fake an attack. Also the final phase was a little hard to me due to the damage he deals from ons attack. I like his design and character and it was a cool no particle spam fight. Just a 1v1 sword/paddle fight.
This game deserves more praise, I don't think I've played a game more rewarding as well as that great feeling of accomplishment. As I was playing this game, I got destroyed on this boss and died probably 30 times but as he kept saying learn from me, I did. Now I can destroy this guy with no problem! My gaming channel will be covering this game soon!
Currently on this boss. Probably my favorite character. The Stranger is my second, followed by the Donnie Darko bunny and Ned Stark. I like the Burst's character design...damn they are all cool looking.
just fought this guy, such a great battle. The only bs was the timing on some of his parries where you may expect a strike to come but it does later. Get the reads and you got him down. His ground waves were pretty bs at first, but you could dodge back after you dodge one. Which helped a lot
+Naruga Kuruga it's not really bs any more. I originally thought that because before this boss, the other bosses had very fast timing between the flash and the strike. Whereas this boss' strikes came a little later than I anticipated. So it threw me off a bit there at first, but I got over it. The ground waves too, at first I thought I could just dash forward over them, but the limited space kinda screwed me over for that, but dashing back after going over the wave gave me enough room to dodge the next wave. In short, I did adjust to the boss' patterns and the challenge wasn't that bad. And quite frankly, this boss is my favourite.
You won with one hp, that's very satisfying, what i wanted to see. To memorize his attacks and pass without damage is like insulting him and those feelings that you get when you first fight him. This battle must be close to the Edge.
The egde best boss ever on furier he is a true challange and this focus he says in last Phase reminds me of my Training partner in sword fighting and this Focus provoced me to surpass him i beat him without any damage
Can't say this was my favorite fight, since the dual phases of any boss tend to just boil down to parry/dodge timing then mashing the attack button, but I think it's great how he just ditches the sword for an oar halfway through and goes "how predictable am I *now?*"
Edge actually gate kept me with the parry mechanic, I had to get so good at parry to pass that when I did a furier run I was able to consistently parry most attacks.
The best boss. Was the hardest for me the first time I've played, now I can defeat him without being hit. A true samurai, what a perfect design. Jetstream Sam huh... Kinda sad he can be cheesed with power up attack (but to be fair it's to find a proper window to charge it) or with a first hit parry>instantly attacking back, or hitting into his parry to bait a counter attack>parry>instantly attack. True way it to parry his strings fully and only then attack him back.
I don't understand why people say he's one of the hardest boss in the game. Compared to the other I've fought I'd actually say he's of the top 3 easiest. For me the scale was the hardest one it took me like 3 days to defeat him. Edit: it's ironic that in the 3rd phase he says "Let's see how predictable you think I am" when his attack pattern gets even more predictable after that.
It depends on the players ability to parry and react which if you have played similar games like mgr or devil may cry will already be skills you’ve learned and used
I prefer thinking that he passed out from exhaustion at the end. His personality is the polar opposite of The Burst, acting like a teacher instead of mocking you. If The Burst were to take The Stranger serious from the beginning, the bossfight would've been even more difficult. It wasn't your blade that killed her, it was her arrogance.
When he picked up the wooden oar, that's when you knew shit just got real. It's time for one last clash. If you lose, you most likely disappoint him by not being that strong after all. But if you win, then you are one step closer to freedom, and the Edge will have had the greatest fight of his life.
Honestly, this is the only boss that keeps pulling me back to this game. The only reason it's still installed. The only one i feel good to be annoyed about.
He understand that both your choice and his contradict eachother therefor this fight is inevitable,no mockery,no cheap trick just sword clash against sword.................or oar
It’s funny cause this guy is basically the last chance humanity has at stopping him physically. The people who built the place knew he was the best chance they had so they kept him last. The other girl is of course just a guilt type thing
Peter Parké actually the protagonist is called Rider. Rider is his official name based on the game (stated by The Star), and wiki. Sometimes bosses will call him a stranger because they know no name for him. (sorry for late reply)
By the time I reached this boss I found him to be the second easiest boss in the game, the easiest being boss 9 (The Beat) which comes afterwards. Seriously this one was over very quickly for me.
Now i see. You deny your weapon on its purpose! It yearns the bathe of your enemies. But you hold it *back.* imagine if the edge was voiced by Rodrigue the one who voiced Samuel on MGR:V
feels like he didnt want to kill you, he was using a wooden paddle while u had a sword. Even though I struggle with this guy he's pretty good boss. Teaches you how to parry and half charge.
I can't for the fucking life of me get past this fucking boss thanks to the bullshit 'waves' he does on the final phase. Fuck I've never been so god damn angry at a boss.
Dodge forward past one, then dodge backward immediately to space yourself for the next one, as seen in the video. The timing is a little weird, but certainly doable.
Easiest as far as the "real" bosses go. I fucking suck at bullet hells, especially with a controller so by the time I got here, parrying was no problem because I had to replay all the others so many times just to get past the bullshit phases.
His best quote wasn't in this video so I'll post it here “Excellence is not an art, it's pure habit. We are what we repeatedly do."
If i heard him say that a month ago, i would of put that as my senior quote
@@DapperPeregrinus meanwhile I have the opportunity to until March 1st... time to get in there
It’s a quote by Aristotle.
not really since Rider fucks me up badly
One of many incredible quotes in this amazingly well written game.
My favorite boss. No guilt tripping, no bullet hell, no bullshit. Just you, him, and a good old swordfight.
same
His timings are bullshit tho. But yeah, this fight is enjoyable thanks to Edge's personality

Yoooo I never realized that but you're super right! He even uses the paddle!

What I liked best about this guy was how he sometimes mutters "nice." when you hit him.
The small subtle compliments when you get good hits in we’re a nice touch
"Nice!"
fun fact: if you charge your slash attack on him he will do the same thing but far away. it'll be like a old Mexican anime stand off.
MrJAK145 mexican animes are the best
what? He will charge his slash?
Also, are you talking on normal charged slash or orange one?

Is the Edge using a wooden sword for the first half of the fight? Or is it just a straight up regular katana.
It's a katana that emits energy, similar to The Stranger's. (The Stranger is the main character.)
Peter Parké actually the protagonist is called Rider. Rider is his official name based on the game (stated by The Star), and wiki. Sometimes bosses will call him a stranger because they know no name for him.
(sorry for late reply)
Beat the burst first try and been on this fucking dude for 3 hours not making it past phase 2
Honestly he didn’t do to bad considering there’s a lot of tight timing in this fight and running this at 4K adds a ton of input lag for some reason
This.
This separates the parrying boys to the parrying men.
The edge was a Chad
Good Content
is the edge representing musashi miyamoto ?
Thsi fight would go perfect with “the only thing i know for real”
By the time I reached this boss I found him to be the second easiest boss in the game, the easiest being boss 9 (The Beat) which comes afterwards. Seriously this one was over very quickly for me.
3:39 there goes your spam
Am i the only one who saw the references to Miyamoto Musashi?
Now i see.
You deny your weapon on its purpose!
It yearns the bathe of your enemies.
But you hold it *back.*
imagine if the edge was voiced by Rodrigue
the one who voiced Samuel on MGR:V
yay i love jat stream sam
2:19
ain't no way it escalated to mortal kombat
Edge 😭
i died 3 times in second boss i closed game watched this 1 munite i will play again to see this boss
feels like he didnt want to kill you, he was using a wooden paddle while u had a sword. Even though I struggle with this guy he's pretty good boss. Teaches you how to parry and half charge.
Best math teacher ever
3:17 me playing poke unite with absol
I can't for the fucking life of me get past this fucking boss thanks to the bullshit 'waves' he does on the final phase.
Fuck I've never been so god damn angry at a boss.
Dodge forward past one, then dodge backward immediately to space yourself for the next one, as seen in the video. The timing is a little weird, but certainly doable.
Easiest as far as the "real" bosses go. I fucking suck at bullet hells, especially with a controller so by the time I got here, parrying was no problem because I had to replay all the others so many times just to get past the bullshit phases.
Ow the edge
On the dame sniper lady must get to this boss
this fight prepared me for sekiro
Why is he wielding a boat paddle that people use to fish
You were predicting his sword strikes too well, so he needed to change things up a bit.
Kellby Benson what're you saying
That you were predicting his sword strikes too well, so he needed to change things up a bit.
But, you don't fish with boat paddles.
Cyanide
speak for yourself
Easier than the others I found. I got on the the last stage at my third attempt.
This game looks harder than dark souls
Actually Cyborg Noodle is a Bae furier is probably harder then dark souls
Based on their designs, I expected some 'Hello... brother.' type dialogue.
