      @Francois424 Рік тому

      I absolutely hate the stagger mechanics... with a passion. Nothing makes me hate a game more that when you do say, 10% of your damage on normal attacks, except in a tiny window where you deal +4000% to make up for it... and window closes fast. If they want to make challenging monsters, fine, look to FF4 all the way thru FF6 and maybe FF7. Monster immunities, counter-attacks, energy absorption, changing weakness every few rounds, Heck even in FF10-2 (which was "okay" to be at best) the big bad optional boss could be beat by wasting your MP to zero, then changing to Rikku's mecha mode which did not use MP so you could kil boss without it leeching your MP and killing you with it. Ingenious !
      But a darned stagger mechanic? get outta here. What a lazy and unimaginative mechanic.

      @supremeoverlorde2109 Рік тому +3

      In terms of character backstory, I do think Ardyn is one of the best --- at least if you're willing to take the time to watch the Prologue and play the DLC. He does truly despicable and unforgivable things, but honestly, out of all the villains in the series, I think he has the most understandable reason for doing the things he does. Not because his brother hurt him and killed his fiancée necessarily, but because he was locked in isolation for thousands of years and then found out he was basically used as a pawn in a very long game to save a world that had betrayed and forgotten him despite his efforts to do the right thing.
      Yeah, I think I would have a gone a bit nuts too.
      People talk about Sephiroth all the time (which I'm not complaining --- Sephiroth is a great villain). And I think ultimately, it's because he's story is EXECUTED in a more engaging way. But if you remove that from the equation and just look at who got a more raw deal, I personally think Ardyn wins every time lol.

    @mr.vanillamilkshake3 2 роки тому +4

    OK, let's compare this list to the TV Tropes Awesome Boss section:
    Chaos: should be below Matteus, regardless of being ahead of its time in terms of visuals, because it only had 2000 HP in the original release (though the Pixel Remaster's better). Also, should be above Cloud of Darkness.
    Matteus: the Ensemble Darkhorse of NES era villains, plus the Dawn of Souls Remake means you get to fight him again! Plus, all the fights were consistent with the game's combat system regardless of quality overall.
    Cloud of Darkness: vanilla final boss that comes out of nowhere.
    Zeromus: another vanilla boss, this time with heavy attack spam in the first form.
    Neo Exdeath: underrated villain, lives up to the hype in terms of difficulty.
    Kefka: sequential, awesome visuals, Dancing Mad.
    Sephiroth: Pros? Birth of a God, you fight with your entire team on the first phase, genuinely climactic, dynamic difficulty, One Winged Angel, Catharsis factor of using Omnislash finisher. Cons? constantly heals itself in first phase, hideously long attack animation in second phase.
    Ultimecia: 4 phases, VFX of awesome, team members get taken out permanently, plus symbolism with Griever. Cons: dangerous if unprepared, summons phase 2 from nowhere, sequential marathon, can permanently take away party members, can nerf your stats, interrupts free summons.
    Necron: Awesome Music, balanced challenge, good visuals. Cons: comes out of nowhere.
    Jecht: Awesome Music, emotional ending. Cons: unstoppable long healing animation, easy if prepared, Yu Yevon.
    Shadow Lord: vanilla forgettable villain.
    The Undying: epic spectacle.
    Orphan: highly challenging first form compared to somewhat challenging, less than impressive second form. Also, second form is immune to all forms of attack until staggered, casts doom on party leader, spams chain gauge reset.
    Nael: vanilla forgettable villain.
    Ardyn: mirror boss, VFX of Awesome, war of attrition, doesn't go One Winged Angel, emotional final phase. Cons: a little more understated compared to other non-vanilla bosses, surprising difficulty spike, unpredictable move pool, interface screw, you can be overleveled.
    Overall, the list should be along the lines of: Nael, Shadow Lord, Orphan, Jecht, Cloud of Darkness, Chaos, Zeromus, Matteus, Ultimecia, The Undying, Necron, Ardyn, Neo Exdeath, Sephiroth, Kefka
    But note: Shadow Lord, Nael and Ardyn aren't meant to be the final bosses of their games. These are: Cloud of Darkness (still kinda vanilla), Zenos (awesome spectacle despite being Post-Final Boss) and Bahamut (probably would've been an upscaled version of the Comrades version, which in itself is one of, if not THE best boss fights in the game, alongside being made by Team FFXIV with Nobuo on music. Sadly, it's only found in novel format).
    And special mention to Bhunivelze: it's God, some of the best visuals, Hypernova, four forms. Cons: Final-Exam Boss from Hell, annoying final phase unless you know what you're doing.
    So the list should be like this: Jecht, Cloud of Darkness/III, Cloud of Darkness/XI, Chaos, Zeromus, Zenos, Matteus, Ultimecia, The Undying, Necron, Bhunivelze, Neo Exdeath, Sephiroth, Kefka, Bahamut (in terms of potential plus already having an extremely successful formula due to Comrades).

    Nael isn't the main antagonist of 14 past 1.x, which has been defunct for a very long time. As the servers don't actually include 1.x content after the launch of 2.x, SQEX instead revamped and added to the lore of the Meteor project and the fall of Dalamud, with Nael only appearing in a minor arc in the Coil raids and then never again after Turn 9 besides being a cameo appearance in the Ultimate fight. Hell, by the time you face "Nael" in 14 as the game is post 2.x launch, he's more or less already been dead for quite some time, with Bahamut having ripped his soul so far apart that when Bahamut tempered him to make him his minion he had to draw upon the physical manifestation of Nael's memories to even give him/her/it a body, which is why this variation of Nael has a female form despite being most definitely male in life.
    For the past several years now (Stormblood onwards), Zenos Yae Galvus, while also being a Garlean like Nael was, is for all intents and purposes the main antagonist of the MMO despite him not appearing in Shadowbringers content for very, very obvious reasons.

    Actual fight 100/100
    Even after dying the guy comes back from the after life and save the hero from certain death. But sephiroth number 1 just because it's ff 7 lmao.
    If we count Crisis core, all Sephiroth did in a nutshell was...
    Rebel againt humanity and burned down a town killing a dozen people? I guess? Nibelheim was pretty small.
    He technically died and fused the life stream.
    Killed president shinra, controled cloud mind to give him the black materia so he could somehow destroy the planet so the planet would react to the threat, send in lifestream to combat and then he will absorb it converting himself in a god
    Hit cloud with a materia in the head, I guess that counts too, and....that's it? I think most of his encounters throughout the original ff7 where not even Sephiroth but Jenova, which Sephiroth controlled. Jenova did not do anything just to be a regular boss and offer some dialogue here and then. But wait I am forgetting something super epic Am I not?
    Yes, Sephiroth killed Aerith. That's his only memorable moment. Once again...it wasn't sephiroth, it was jenova shapeshifted as sephiroth

According to the story, every time he demonified someone, he absorbed their memories and started losing what was his and what was others' memories. His descent into an evil character was because of his own heartbreak and betrayal against him. The poor guy.

I once had death resist at +66% and it still killed me (I actually flipped my controller in frustration after that). I do enjoy Neo ExDeath and his boss music, but the spot is probably right cause his Grand Cross move is such a pain and a possible wipe as well (I once got hit and it gave me death, zombie, zombie, near-death and zombie is literally worse than death in FFV).

    I feel like this list lost a lot of credibility when the first entry is not only a.) basically putting the online games as glorified honorable mentions, but b.) you didn't even use the currently available FFXIV for your entry. Not gonna say Nael isn't worthy of being on a FFXIV boss list, but I think it does a disservice to the game, when you use the long since shut down 1.0 version to make your argument about "why they aren't a good boss" While I would get saying "The online titles are too hard to rank since they are an ever expanding universe, and deserve a list of their own for each," to basically be like "*pfft* Online Final Fantasy games aren't TRUE entries", comes off as a very dated opinion, especially given the notoriety both games have nowadays.

    Genuinely psyched that Ultimecia was this high in the list... gobsmacked you placed The Emperor that high though (there are going to be some ecstatic FF2 fans). But SURPRISE SURPRISE you just had to give the top spot to Sephiroth....don't get me wrong, I love him as an antagonist, but this fight just wasn't as good as the multi-parters (Kefka & Ulti). The amount of times I thought I had beaten those two and was subsequently proven very wrong was more than I care to admit lol (yes I know Seph has more than one form too... but that was a separate battle).
    Oh and personally, I would have counted Sin as the Final boss for X....if your not going to count Yu Yevon that is. Given that Sin is the main antagonist for pretty much ALL of the game, and a FAR more iconic/epic fight than Braska's Final Aeon... probably would have counted the final Kuja fight for IX instead of Necron too to be fair....
    Final Fantasy does have a tendency to occasionally just, "drop" an (pretty much irrelevant) extra Final Boss into the mix...even if they have no canonical reason to be there...

    Throughout the story of Final Fantasy 15, I thought Ardyn was pretty much the best-written Final Fantasy antagonist since Sephiroth. However, having only one form to fight against, and the battle being 1-on-1 only... that seemed kind of lack-luster for a Final Fantasy game. I do understand the story reason why it would be 1-on-1, but I still think it could have been improved upon maybe by having the battle start with the full party vs. Ardyn, and then having Noctis go 1-on-1 with a second form or something.
    And now there is Ultima from Final Fantasy 16. That battle had the boss go through multiple forms... disappointingly, none of them being named "Ultima Weapon"... That one did begin as a 3-vs-1 battle, and did end as a 1-on-1 battle. That seemed much more satisfying.

    Sephiroth was the easiest final boss in final fantasy history. & 2nd the #1 ranked final boss would either be Kefka or Ultimecia because it did require your characters to be in top condition. While Sephiroth's last fight required your characters to be at least a Lv 50, with no high level materia, no ultimate weapons & final limit breaks. But Sephiroth is still one the greatest but not the greatest.

    Good video but the top 2, Kefka shoulda been #1 over Sephiroth. Just cause Kefka achieved his goal in becoming a god whereas Sephiroth was just a manufactured thing.

    I love final fantasy X but the end boss fights suck ass they build sin up all game than you fight it and you can't lose so disappointing when expecting to fight a giant

    2 Kefka "honestly, it could've easily been a toss up between our top 2 picks"
    1 Sephiroth "cmon could it have been someone else?!"
    Ehhhh you just said Kefka, Sure Mojoplays.....xD

    At least the you acknowledged the OG XIV's Nael Deus Darnus and X's Yu Yevon. I'll give you that MojoPlays. But you STILL missed the ball with FFXIV:ARR's Lahabrea! I get it; 1.0 is the original XIV. But to not even bring up the better-by-miles relaunch?! You lost points in my book for that! Otherwise, this listing is spot-on. ✋🏽👌🏽

    The last two were proof how man shouldn't act like they're God & try to create super solders, we might get a Sephiroth or a Kefka in our universe.
