Curse-rotted greatwood, deacons of the deep, ruin sentinels, the rotten, old dragonslayer, nashandra, gwyndolin, demon firesage He put all these bosses higher than gwyn ffs
The one thing that really annoys me about the double apes is how good the first fight was. It had wild and hectic first phase. Then a revelation that he is still alive and is one of the immortals is downright creepy. And you remember how unique that fight was. Then you come across him again and at that point the ape overstays his welcome. It uses the same music that at the first fight was creepy, but now It's just annoying. And then in the second phase he calls upon the same looking ape which really kills the whole story of Guardian Ape where I thought that he outlived all of his species and remained alone tending to a flower for a bride that will never come. And also why does brown monkey have overgrown teeth and nails? I thought that overgrown teeth on Guardian Ape were representative of his immortality and how he is far past his life expectancy. And this is reason I hate it even more than just bad gameplay.
Yeah the only thing it has going for it is the initial surprise of the headless ape still being alive and it somehow being able to summon his dead mate to help him kill you, but like you said even that last part doesn't make sense because his mate clearly isn't an immortal. Going through all the gauntlets of strength including Mortal Journey really made me despise this fight.
It's not my favourite fight either but 1) it's entirely optional and 2) it's extremely easy so it really doesn't bother me, you only "need" to kill them on ng if you want the beads, afterwards you can just ignore them.
Surprised to see Capra nowhere in sight in bad and below, especially when you put it as the footage when you were talking about mediocre bosses. Every time I beat Gargoyles I dread the idea of having to go through lower burg and fight two dogs and a cow in a coffin sized arena.
Can’t you see? The first DS2 Dlc’s optional boss was a Gang Boss, the second DLC was a reskin (Smelter Demon, not Alonne) so the third DLC had - a Gang Reskin!
3 things 1. Thank you for ranking the guardian ape duo as low as you did. I like to actively pretend that fight doesn’t exist. 2. If Ludwig isn’t number 1, or at least top 5, we’re going to have some problems. 3. If I’m not mistaken, you’re doing the same thing demodcracy did several years ago with his boss ranking. I like that.
I know that Gwyn is supposed to be easy as sort of a narrative payoff to the whole "you stepping on the shoulders of dying giants" thing... But he actually made me stop playing, come back to DS1 more than a year later, quit again, and only beat him on my third return, after painfully learning how to parry. Without parrying, I'm stil pretty sure I'm unable to beat the guy. Between his auto-punish of healing, his jumps as soon as you get too far, his combos with weird timings, and the lack of windup... The guy is a pain.
@@Someone89a easy? Maybe it’s cause I didn’t use shield or parry but that was the only hard boss in ds1 for me every other boss I beat in a few tries but gwyn took me a while
Do people really think gwyn is too hard? I thought he was designed to be easy because of being able to be parried. His fast attack works in your favour with parrying too. And to heal you just have to make sure you're far enough away
If you fail a single parry, it’s pretty much over. Imo he’s the hardest boss. He clearly doesn’t have a balanced move set. Not a single safe healing opportunity. Even artorias and manus have that
Definitely your best Video yet.. keep up the great work! Also first bloodborne boss coming up this late in the video really tells a lot about the game.
So imma be honest, I’ve finished a bow run of DS3 recently and the ancient wyvern was surprisingly fun when you don’t go for the insta kill. Dodging it’s fire and steps was weirdly satisfying when you’re shooting it’s head on repeat. I highly recommend.
Gwyn at 117 is SPICY. I don't think the fight is amazing mechanically but man, the symbolism and lore of the fight are too special to put him any lower than like the 25-30 range IMO. Soul of Cinder also retroactively made Gwyn a better boss, although SoC is far better in every aspect
I shall now be a contrarian and list "positives" about Bed of Chaos' fight: 1. You can kill it in under a minute with well aimed bomb throws. 2. You can quit out and reload after hitting the glowing weak spots. 3. Bows work. 4. You can hug the wall on the left pathway and then jump over the hole instead of ever taking the inner route where you have to deal with the swipes. 5. This boss is easier to beat without taking damage than Nito. 6. ... The music's neat I guess. I dunno, I ran out of material.
@@R4Clover7 yeah, gameplay first, but he said he takes the other elements into account. It’s not just the lore, Gwyn is a story beat first and foremost. He’s supposed to be an easy, pushover boss. It’s a fantastic twist and Dark Souls would not be the same without it. Not to mention the beautifully melancholic music that fits the tone flawlessly. It leaves such a potent impression on the player and is one of the most memorable moments of the game. It all comes together to be incredibly impactful, and just because he “spams R1” doesn’t mean he’s any less of a great final boss. Gameplay is always important of course, but it’s doing the boss a massive disservice to treat it like it’s any other fight. I’m not saying he’s the greatest boss or anything, but the thematic quality of the boss alone places him AT LEAST in the top half! I also think the fight is enjoyable on its own. Parrying him is fun.
@@jakel4316 I agree to an extent. My take is simply that i prefer fast exhilarating bosses which I'm quite sure he prefers, and he said this is his opinion. Gwyn isn't exactly that, not a bad boss though, i would place him higher as well.
@@jakel4316 Thing is, the theme is very obvious... and only works IF you find the boss to actually be a pushover. He's the only boss in the whole DS trilogy that made me quit a game and stop playing it for months, having completely given up on beating it. After 2 instances of returning to the game and getting my ass handed to me after hours of getting back in the flow... I finaly gave in and learned parrying, which I never did in the whole game before (and why would I? It doesn't work on half the stuff you meet, it is hard to pull off and globally its more efficient to learn how to dodge and parry...), and then he suddenly became doable. Not easy, but doable. The reasons are accuratly portaryed in the video here : you basicaly can't heal, his combo starter is super quick... dodging the combos has a weird timing, parrying them requires more stamina than you'll ever get, and he hits like a truck... So the contradiction between the theme of him being a broken husk and the mechanics making him arguably the hardest boss in what I played Dark Souls (I didn't do most of the DLC yet, but for instance Soul of Cinder in DS3 is far more manageble... after all, his second phase is basicly gwyn... except in DS3 you are FAR nimbler) made him really frustrating. Vendrick and Gwyn should've shared their power a bit more equally, and maybe we would've gotten two decent "fallen king" bosses, rather than the pushover and the game-killer ones...
Everything about gywn is amazing EXCEPT the fact that he can be parried yea I know there’s some lore reasons but for a game that hard the final boss should NOT be parry looped
I like the throwback to tower knight and I think the molted disfigured clump of human mass design was pretty cool. Though his attacks aren’t exactly the most fun to go through.
Just stumbled upon this video, hope you're enjoying the constant repetition of the same copy pasted bosses making up a lot of the duo boss fights In Elden!
Personally one thing that makes me hate the gwyn fight is the really long and dull run to the fog gate if you die. Like, it's not even hard to dodge the black knights without getting hit. The kiln area did not have to be so big.
Never fought lud and zulla due to the fridgide outskirts, making them the only boss I haven't faced in the soulsborne games I played. I honestly wonder if they remake ds2, if they could fix the DLC optional boss runs. The blue smelter demon is a good fight.
Told my brother about this right away as soon as I saw it! Absolutely love the content across all games and so so so excited for this series to come out. Stellar work!!!
Yea priscilla has a cool concept and lore but the hardest thing about her is that she makes me feel guilty and Sif makes me feel guilty while also being a pain cause the hitbox doesn't exist
Although I agree these are not great bosses, I have to admit I sometimes have the most fun fighting some of these. Sometimes the silliness of something like covetous demon or the damage of Vendrick just feels… right? I am a Dark Souls 2 apologist though, admittedly. God I love bad bosses sometimes lmao
I think Music can make or break a boss personally. Storm King in the DeSR is absolutely amazing because of the heavy rain and the incredible music. The boss itself is honestly pretty bad and if it wasn't for the amazing Music and beautiful rain it would be a bottom tier boss but instead it's actually amazing.
Oh by the way, "Gwyn is programmed to a charge attack whetever you try using estus". If you think that's bad here come fking leggs with a sword - Vendrick who is slow as chinese internet connection, but after he hits you and you move back he starts running to you like crazy (by running i mean retarded sped up walking animation)
Good vid and I 100% agree with you about Gwyn. I've never enjoyed fighting that boss. I'm just relieved when I get the parries off so I don't have to do the runback again and can move on to a new playthrough.
I feel like I'm going to get a lot of flak for this, but I honestly don't think the Bed of Chaos is the worst boss in the franchise. Mainly it's because I don't even consider it a boss, just a speed bump with lore. I haven't had trouble with it since the bow/firebomb strat came out. I honestly hated Capra Demon, Nito, and Centipede Demon more, and that's just other DSI bosses. Then again, I feel like I'm a bit of a crazy person with which Souls bosses I like or dislike :V I HATE Sister Friede's boss fight, but somewhat enjoy Micolash's. Also for me lore and atmosphere can go a long way to help a boss fight (but not too much, gameplay still plays a huge component).
Everyone says Orphan of Kos is one of the hardest bosses. But i don't see it. I struggled more with the Erdtree Watchdog than i did with Kos. Vordt of the Boreal Valley, was harder than Kos to me.
The triple team gank squad is fun & a surprise change of pace. As someone who platinum DS2, 3 & Elden Ring I can say thats not the worst fight or experience unless u really really are bad or struggling with the game.
At face value, nearly every Demons Souls boss goes on this list, most of them are the opposite of what fans of Dark Souls seem to want. That is a fast, unpredictable, unblockable, highly damaging murder machine. The truth is, as the series went on, the ideas in Demons Souls remain the most unique and the most innovative to date. More than ever in Elden Ring does every boss feel the same. Huge, insanely fast, with these long ass combos, and at this point it becomes "press dodge at the right time and attack until you win". Demons Souls is not about combat. Shocker. Its about exploration, its about rewarding the player for their strategy like a real adventurer. In this way, I would say thay legend of zelda is a more apt comparison to Demons Souls than say, DS3 or even DS. I think that when it comes to bosses, the games have gotten weaker combat wise as the game progresses.
I've only played Bloodborne and Sekiro. I'm on my second playthrough of Bloodborne and have played Sekiro 4 times through for each ending. If you had to say, which of dark souls 1-3 or demon souls should I play. I've heard DS 2 is trash. But all the others are great, anyone got some input on what I should consider?
Dark souls 1 has excellent interconnected level design not present in the other games it also has an excellent first half but a bad (average compared to most games) second half. Dark souls 2 is very controversial because it has a quantity over quality approach level design and bosses however it's still a great game in my opinion and the dlc is excellent. Finally ds3 is the most safe out of the games its levels feel quite bland and boring and too similar to ds1 it's very linear however it has by far the best bosses in the souls series especially if you include dlc. Hope this helps! They're all excellent games whichever one you choose first anyway.
bed of chaos isnt even difficult. its not even designed. it doesnt even feel like a boss, when i went through it well it didnt stress me out but i did absolutely hate it and when i died i wasnt even mad, i just went “oh ok”
I genuinely don't think I've hated a video about fromsoft more than this I'm actually concerned the commentary, the shit rankings, and the self serious annoying attitude all make for a horrible experience.
Watching this video, while knowing nothing about Sekiro, would make you believe Sekiro is an adult version of Super Mario, and the enemies are all monkeys.
1000% agree on Gwyn, finally someone thats rating him without nostalgia goggles, the boss run, the instant sword swing, the non stop attacking patterns...its just awful, if you want to experience him "done right" than fight Soul of Cinder P2
I know this was before Elden ring, but personally just gonna slot Astel under bed of chaos but only for strength builds. That boss had me stuck for multiple days, was constantly annoying and at least I can see the BoC's insta-kill pits coming, unlike that fucking grab.
I don’t care that Gwynn is in the bad tier, I care that he is below Capra demon and centipede demon
That trash should have been at the bottom of the list. I care more for the fact Vendrick somehow ended below him.
He should be below Capra, but not centipede imo
Curse-rotted greatwood, deacons of the deep, ruin sentinels, the rotten, old dragonslayer, nashandra, gwyndolin, demon firesage
He put all these bosses higher than gwyn ffs
@@anton.chigrinetc.96 Vendric together with Ancient Dragon is one of the most boring fights in the series.

Awesome video can't wait for the next. Cool to see priscilla and Seath so low they really suck.
The Flying Dragons and Glintstone Dragons in Elden Ring are like if Ancient Wyvern moved a more and didn't have way too much health.
You ever read up on Covetous Demon's lore? I don't think I've ever laughed so hard at Souls lore in my life in his case lmao
@North Sea Pirate simped so hard he turned into Nikocado Avocado 😂😂😂😂😂

The One Reborn deserves more love
I like the throwback to tower knight and I think the molted disfigured clump of human mass design was pretty cool. Though his attacks aren’t exactly the most fun to go through.
I really like the folding screen monkeys. The idea of the boss fight is good but this is my opinion

Love the confidence man ! Nice video, can't wait for the rest of the ranking.
I love the Gwen fight personally. I have a tanky character so I play defense until I can get a hit. I enjoy Gwen more than soul of cinder
Fighting Vendrick nearly broke my weapon lmao
Gwynn below Capra Demon? Are you okay?
Ornstein and Smough not being here is pure nostalgia. The fight is literally broken.
what are you talking about...
Bruhhh, you must be high lmao. It's easily a top 10 boss!
Bruh it’s literally the best fight in ds1

Honestly your commentary is great

Very easily
Great video I really enjoyed it. Hope to see this project continue.
Capra main attack is the hitboxes of the walls and his dogs.
Bro....that hit me when he said Vendrick is a bad boss, i mean it is for a good reason why he's like that.
Wonir here stuck between two amazing bosses. He must be secretly hurting.

Ah yes Gwyn the running away and hoping he doesn’t clip through the environment so i can heal boss.
I agree with your ranking with the graverobbers, though id say its more fun when there is a party with you.
dude what if video games
I think the run up to the old monk was originally to let the boss load in since it was online
I think Music can make or break a boss personally. Storm King in the DeSR is absolutely amazing because of the heavy rain and the incredible music. The boss itself is honestly pretty bad and if it wasn't for the amazing Music and beautiful rain it would be a bottom tier boss but instead it's actually amazing.

At face value, nearly every Demons Souls boss goes on this list, most of them are the opposite of what fans of Dark Souls seem to want. That is a fast, unpredictable, unblockable, highly damaging murder machine. The truth is, as the series went on, the ideas in Demons Souls remain the most unique and the most innovative to date. More than ever in Elden Ring does every boss feel the same. Huge, insanely fast, with these long ass combos, and at this point it becomes "press dodge at the right time and attack until you win". Demons Souls is not about combat. Shocker. Its about exploration, its about rewarding the player for their strategy like a real adventurer. In this way, I would say thay legend of zelda is a more apt comparison to Demons Souls than say, DS3 or even DS. I think that when it comes to bosses, the games have gotten weaker combat wise as the game progresses.
I've only played Bloodborne and Sekiro. I'm on my second playthrough of Bloodborne and have played Sekiro 4 times through for each ending.
If you had to say, which of dark souls 1-3 or demon souls should I play. I've heard DS 2 is trash. But all the others are great, anyone got some input on what I should consider?
Dark souls 3 would be smoothest to transition into, plus it has the best bosses imo
Dark souls 1 has excellent interconnected level design not present in the other games it also has an excellent first half but a bad (average compared to most games) second half.
Dark souls 2 is very controversial because it has a quantity over quality approach level design and bosses however it's still a great game in my opinion and the dlc is excellent.
Finally ds3 is the most safe out of the games its levels feel quite bland and boring and too similar to ds1 it's very linear however it has by far the best bosses in the souls series especially if you include dlc.
Hope this helps! They're all excellent games whichever one you choose first anyway.
@@roe2479 thank you! 👍
@@Phoenix-oy3pn no problem, hope you enjoy them!
DS3 is the best of those 4 so go for that
11:31 Haha. You must be kidding me, aren't you?
bed of chaos isnt even difficult. its not even designed. it doesnt even feel like a boss, when i went through it well it didnt stress me out but i did absolutely hate it and when i died i wasnt even mad, i just went “oh ok”
I genuinely don't think I've hated a video about fromsoft more than this I'm actually concerned the commentary, the shit rankings, and the self serious annoying attitude all make for a horrible experience.
Ds2 is what happens when miyazaki isnt involved….but scholar of the first sin is when he is😂
Nah Gwyn it's an amazing boss, Capra demon is far worse
Watching this video, while knowing nothing about Sekiro, would make you believe Sekiro is an adult version of Super Mario, and the enemies are all monkeys.
Honestly I was excepting nito to be in this video
Oh Magicat, great priest of the Bloodsouls games .. i commited a Sin.

I actually like prowling Magus and the Gank Bros.
Now why would you go and do such a silly thing?
@@magicat7356 i... Well i think that Magus is cute and i like the feeling of you against some graverobbers in the sunken Citty
1000% agree on Gwyn, finally someone thats rating him without nostalgia goggles, the boss run, the instant sword swing, the non stop attacking patterns...its just awful, if you want to experience him "done right" than fight Soul of Cinder P2
3:47 oh boy, if this room pose you problem, in elden ring they was à dragon in a tiny boss room, making all area into lava😁
Well well well look what the cat dragged in
"Soulsbornekiro" why don't you say "Kingsdemonsoulsbornekiroringcore" while at it?
I know this was before Elden ring, but personally just gonna slot Astel under bed of chaos but only for strength builds. That boss had me stuck for multiple days, was constantly annoying and at least I can see the BoC's insta-kill pits coming, unlike that fucking grab.
