@@eggman3908 With enough planning and the right gear, it isn't that difficult to do. I used the Rod of Discord to escape the Dungeon once the Dungeon Guardian spawned, then I used the Cosmic Car Key to outrun it (or rather, outfly it) while using the Rod of Discord at the edge of the world to change directions. I used the Star Wrath to attack it.

Good developers: Make unwinnable boss fights able to be won if you are good enough. Great developers: Make winning them actually change the rest of the game/give you a special hidden ending.
@@parryking8121 ikr, like, armour? Who the fuck needs it? All jokes aside, as someone who has done multiple challenge runs including the naked run, you'd be surprised how at how many hits you can take without armour. You're actually really tough.
It’s incredibly hard to pull off, but in Dishonored: Brigmore Witches Daud has a nightmare and fights Corvo. You’re *supposed* to get stabbed and wake up, but if you try hard enough you can actually kill Corvo.
Aye, in Dark Souls your roll/dodge speed is determined by how heavy your gear is in combination with a particular stat. If it's high enough, you can in fact mid roll/fast roll with heavy armor (but that's usually way later into the playthrough). That's why the Naked runs are a thing, you get the fastest roll right off the bat and can use a heavy weapon two-handed because using two hands doubles your strength stat, so long as you half at least half the strength required to wield it (among other stats).
When I first bought Dark Souls, it had been hyped as this game that was so hard it's practically impossible. I made a level 1 pyromancer, no armor, nothing but a broken sword hilt, and absolute baseline stats, walked into the asylum demon, and thought "Damn, they weren't kidding." So I spent like an entire day but finally killed it with nothing but raw determination, a bit of luck, and a lot of spite. No other boss fight the series had to offer quite measured up to it.
@@7792thereaper thanks for a tip! Now I can start playing this game more easily. But where may I repair my broken sword? I beat the whole game with it and no Smith could make this blade look like a normal sword. Any tips, master?
@@MeVMaHyou're welcome. The way that I would do it is when the fight starts, I immediately run to the flight of the stairs to the far left end of the room. That will take you to an area where you get a full sword and a shield. This area actually takes you outside, and there's a doorway back in where you'll find the balcony. You can plunge on top of the demon for massive damage. You can do something similar with the Taurus demon. When that fight starts run back up to the tower, and drop down. Don't take too long while you're up there or he'll jump up top
Мирный атом [FlackSaw] also, you can skip the Taurus Demon that they mentioned by starting as thief or picking the master key as your starting gift by opening the door at the bottom of the tower where you go up to fight him. Just run past the absolute unit at the bottom floor and keep heading up through darkroot
Demon Souls has a better "unbeatable" first boss. You beat him, a portal opens up, thinking you've achieved something incredible, get punched in face by Dragon God.
but not before getting a nice load of goodies before hand, and that cutscene will always be my favorite way of having your character get to the main hub.

The first time I fought with "The End" from metal gear solid 3, I thought I was gonna be stuck there forever. I stopped playing it for weeks because I got bored.. after I came back The End was dead due to the MGS3 feature that he could be killed due to old age when you don't play it for several days.

Protip: You can gank Ser Cauthrien, loot her awesome sword and some of the other bodies, then let the archers finish you off. Then you get to do the prison break for even more loot and XP, and later on you can fight Cauthrien again to nab a second copy of the Summer Sword.
Cauthrien: "My lord, the Warden's companions stole my sword while I was unconscious, can I have another one, please?" Loghain: "You want an exact copy of the unique, majestically-named, powerful magical greatsword I gifted you?" Cauthrien: "Yes." Loghain: "Very well. It is fortunate that I ordered two from the smith."
@@Gumby518 Basically Darth Malak from KOTOR.

Same. My opening line was this is like an open world rpg. You will be able to go places that can get you all killed. Party proceeds to go to the abandoned mine ignoring all the warnings. Decided to mine despite subtle warnings and obvious. When the mine wall moved on it’s own slightly even then they used explosives. Finally I asked do you guys really want to roll new characters. They shrugged, the tarrasque woke up. Party got nommed
I just lured him away from the ladder, climbed up, and killed him from above a few times. Won on my second try and only lost the first time because of a misplaced dodge.
One of the most well done examples of this is in Chrono Trigger. You're allowed to fight Lavos (The final boss and primary antagonist) at any point in the story, and while it's incredibly difficult and requires an unbelievable amount of grinding, it is possible to beat him at the beginning of the game.
@@EggmanlandResidentThat's true, the second time I fought it in his first battle I did my best thinking I was gonna lose anyway, then boom 🤯 I was able to defeat it.
That being said, that description isn’t always right. Pureblood Heartless have no hearts, as they are formed from the darkness of a heart that is consumed by darkness. However Emblem Heartless (the ones with the logo that also tend to be the more numerous and diverse enemies) are actually made around a heart. They leach the darkness from it without the heart having to be consumed (and so you can see the hearts flying off when they are killed). Now they don’t feel with those hearts, but they do technically have them in the sense that if I ate a penny, I’d have it until it passed.
Typically in them mythos there be multiple uses of "immortality" Some people take the regenerate/immune to death one as "True Immortality" from what I noticed. Usually put on people as a curse so they live a life of unending pain/grief nonsense. The other kind just means if someone/thing doesnt murder you, disease and time cant. Yeehaw.
@Nia Gambino No it doesn't. The origin of "immortal" is from the Latin root word "immortale". The definition of "immortale" is "immortal, eternal, everlasting, undying, deathless", meaning you cannot die... period. Natural/unnatural causes are irrelevant because once again, you cannot be killed because you cannot die. It is the exact opposite of being "mortal", hence "im-mortal". If you look up the word "immaterial", it means "having no matter or substance". It is the exact opposite of "material", hence "im-material". Being "immortal" and "invincible" are two completely different things. With invincibility, not only can you not be killed or destroyed, you cannot be defeated or overcome either. You're virtually a god if you're invincible, which it denotes immortality in addition to absolute power. Poisenbery is correct in his/her summation. If the kid can be killed for his "immorality" powers, then the kid was never immortal to begin with. I never played Devil May Cry 5, so it may simply that the story behind the kid is that he isn't immortal and that anyone that kills him will have "immortality" bestowed upon them like the blood of a virgin or something of that nature.
Unfortunately, today there are many ways to define the word "immortal." Many of them can be killed, not making them truly immortal, but then ... what? That is just the way it is now, I guess. Hahaha
It's true. Immortality means you can't be killed. However, your body can still be dismembered and mutilated. But, still alive. Invincibility and indestructibility mean you can't be dismembered or mutilated, but don't necessarily mean you can't age or die of age.
The Sleeper Dragon in the MMO Everquest 1. A Prismatic godly dragon who could only be awakened once per server. This would trigger a story event in which he would rampage the world (the original Deathwing really) until being told by The Nameless (IE God) that he was too powerful and the server story would progress. Suffice to say he had an insane healthpool and was full of a bunch of insta-kills and was never intended to be beaten. But if there is one thing more determined than a gamer to beat the devs , its hundreds of gamers ready to kamikaze themselves back to level one in order to prove a point. Nearly a day of fighting and millions of negative experience points later, The Sleeper was dead. No loot, no death animation, the entire server technically story locked; but that was Triumph.
Also worth noting that the Sleeper was immune to all magic except Mana Burn from wizards (and possibly life burn from necromancers, can't recall) and that could only be used once every 8 real time hours, so it isn't even worth it. And all but 2 classes relied, at least in part, on said magic for damage. 250+ players from three different guilds on one of the more brutal PvP servers ever, where you could kill anyone and loot their body of an item teamed up twice for this feat. The first time SoE despawned the boss after 6 hours of fighting and lied saying it was automatically done due to respawns. Undaunted after people proved SoE to be full of it they went back at it the next day. Truly a feat to remember.
Tales of Symphonia ought to have been added to this list, because when you reach the "Tower of Salvation" for the first time, you are thrusted into a boss battle without two of your party members against a so-called "Angel" facading as one of your characters' father. When it is revealed that they weren't who they claimed to be, you must fight them. The game intends for you to looze that battle, but if you win, you end up fighting a former team member, "Kratos". Once again, you are expected to looze the battle, but if you win even against him as well, then the final boss comes to face you. The probability of winning the fight against the final boss at that point in the game is extremely small for multiple reasons. First, his level is so high comparatively to your own that each individual hit you inflict against him barely does 1% to 2% damage; meaning you are basically giving him mild scratches at best. Additionally, since he is the third fight in a succession of back-to-back fights where the cut-scenes give you absolutely no time to heal nor reposition, you're entering the battle already handicapped. And on top of that, since you are missing two party members, you have a diminished force to face against the final boss as well. However, despite the devastating odds, it is theoretically possible to win! But even if you lower the Final Boss's health down to 0%, a cut-scene triggers where he summons a OHKO attack that instantly wipes out your party regardless. No telling why that Final Boss didn't simply use that OHKO move at the start of the battle instead; would have saved the player a lot of effort trying to very slowly whittle his HP to nothing only for him to turn around and instantly knock-out your party anyway. I happen to know this only because I was one such fool who tried time after time after time again to defeat that Final Boss during that earlier portion of the game; and when I finally succeeded, the cut-scene wipes out my team no matter what. Incidentally, whenever I replay Tales of Symphonia, I will legitimately try to beat the first two bosses strictly for the "Experience Points", but then when the third and Final Boss comes out, I no longer even fight back anymore... My previous victory against him ironically caused me to looze my will to fight that Final Boss at all.........
I remember watching a speed run of dark souls and the guy ran into the archdukes library, jumped off an elevator the wrong way, and skipped the unwinnable fight against seethe, running straight to the arena where he could be killed instead
Man, I hate Cutscene Imcompetence imposed upon players because of 'story' reasons. Bloody Kai Leng... Sekiro should have pulled a Far Cry 4/Tales of Destiny/DMC5 and just ended the game there.
You know, I never will never understand why when they’re showing gameplay they have a black screen, and right when your eyes get used to it they flash bang you with a background brighter than the sun
Would’ve been hilarious if the more times you killed nemesis, it would be more afraid of you up to the point where instead of fighting it as the final boss, the nemesis just takes one look at you and runs away, leaving some other oblivious guy to fight you instead.
@@devforfun5618 If I remember right, there was something like an achievement for winning the fight. I also never did the prison section since I figured out straight away it was too many archers and kited the boss down the corridor while I had everybody else hold the archers in the room. The Archers just waited there while their boss had her health slowly whittled away by my main character.
When I saw the fight in Dragon Age on this list I went: "Wait, what? Really? I was supposed to lose?" I played the game so much at this point and was always levelled up enough for this fight.
So I played dark souls for the first time, and I thought I HAD to defeat the beast, so I spent three hours trying to defeat it, failed, remade a character with the bombs and won. Very fristrating to know I was supposed to skip it
@@lightbrand_ a lot of people skip the tutorial messages because they heard the orange messages are from players, and thus ignore the developer messages assuming they were jokes like "great chest ahead".
My first Dark Souls playthrough was with a friend who had played the game extensively. He didn't let on until I had actually made it out of the area that I should have just left the first encounter instead of beating my head against it over and over. Real asshole move, but it did force me to 'git gud'
"Double bastard, extra hard, ARE YOU KiDdInG ME with all these archers." This is already gold, but that voice crack made it even better, thank you Jane! xD
I was actually unaware I was supposed to lose that fight, so I used a combination of runes to paralyze the whole room, and stabbed everyone. Had to reload so I could experience the dashing rescue of the famous....Broma Brothers.
It took me way too many playthroughs to realise that I could survive losing that fight, I always used to restart from an old save immediately upon death
lol, Jane, that's because you're an underleveled mage! If you were like me, you would have done every side mission leading up to this point with an OCD like determination, and would have been an overleveled, overequipped, warrior tank GOD and gone through that fight without realizing that it was supposed to be hard.
@@bookworm3696 the twist: Heartless are what happens when disembodied hearts (be it through pure negative emotion or through outside influence such as a keyblade or other dark powers) falls to its darkness and assumes physical form. Meanwhile the bodies remain discarded husks named "nobodies" due to the fact that their status as incomplete leaves them without their personality in life, although they can put up a decent fascimile due to retaining their memories of their previous life. If a nobody and their heartless are destroyed (preferably by a keyblade wielder), the original being will be recompleted, though at the same time nobodies CAN generate new hearts if given time and space to experience life. emotions.
I still remember beating Leon in Kingdom Hearts as a kid and no one believed me cause they said it was in the story to lose... who's laughing now Edit: I was about 6-7 at the time and my older brother and dad both finished the game and said it was impossible to beat Leon
"The Asylum Demon is still a tough fight." Brah, if you choose black firebombs, you can literally stand in one place and kill him before he gets to swing. o.o

Your first encounter with Gades in Lufia 2. Normally he floors you with successive Destructo Waves. But with some grinding, using certain equipment, and a lot of patience (takes at least 15 minutes), you can whittle his large HP pool. You even win his Sword afterwards (which has arguably the strongest IP attack, Octo-Strike). That's before he knocks out your party in a post battle cutscene anyways. Ironic that he is the NEXT boss after that as well, but he's just a regular boss then (with somewhat higher then average HP). And the times you encounter him late game, he's kind of a joke.
Everyone knows that the true meaning of every JRPG is grinding like mad for hours before advancing the story, beating every boss incredibly quickly and slowly realising that you've become everything you hate. You are the boss now. All you can hear are their screams.
5:00 "and, he has some special moves that can wreck you pretty quickly if you're not prepared, which, at this point in the game, 95% of players won't be" Outside Gaming accurately predicting that a whole 5% of people playing FromSoft games are in fact challenge/speedrunners.
Fun fact about the Asylum Demon: the broken sword actually does less damage than bare fists. If you do attempt the fight, you're better off putting it in your left hand (since it can block *some* damage) and punching the Demon into submission.
I wasn't sure that the LEON fight should be on there. I always thought he was kind of a pushover. Easily exploited attack openings and telegraphed attacks make him kind of a cake walk. He just hits kind of hard, so you need to block and move a lot more than before. Then again, considering the only fight you've had up to that point is a few shadows and the series joke that is Darkside... yeah, I guess he'd be hard to new players. Not bragging here, I legit didn't know he was supposed to be an 'impossible' boss, just a little tricky for the early game.
One of the greatest moments of catharsis in gaming is starting Sekiro New Game + and going ultra instinct on Genichiro because you’ve fought him so many times before Isshin that you’ve memorized his every move.
For the Dragon Age: Origins 'unwinnable' boss fight, you can also win it by using either blood magic (which is super OP) or an item duplication glitch to give yourself infinite stats (beating Cauthrien isn't hard when you've got 900 strength and constitution. ;)
Me and my friends beated them it took a while but its possible and if you beat them you get a key that allows you to summon a guardian but the guardian you summon cant fight tho im not sure if the key drop is 100 percent
The Dungeon Guardian in Terraria was programmed to have a special drop after someone spent forever to prove that it can be beat. By the way, in case you have never played Terraria, it has 9,999 health (double that in Expert mode and triple that in Master mode), 9,999 defense, ensuring that you will always do 1 damage (2 with a critical hit), and will always insta-kill you if it successfully hits you.
If you drop Nemesis every single encounter, the last drop is 'unlimited ammo' case, usable on any weapon to , you guessed it, give unlimited ammo of that weapon. I prefer to put it on the magnum as it's the most versatile weapon with very high power. Though most just tend to put it on the grenade launcher with ice or flame rounds (I prefer acid rounds) However you can earn more unlimited ammo cases (that carry over into the core game) but doing more special side missions (the challenge runs and earning in game money). It was a fun way to extend the life of the game.
@@Dark_Mishra No ur wrong. U can kill him with the black fire bombs from the starting gift. Which the dude in the gameplay for this vid even had. I do it everytime on my new runs
This always made me a bit invested in that fight. There is a place really close to Seath, just slightly to the right of the center of the room (great geographical description, I know) where he can't hit you. Of course he recovers his health instantly but is it possible to, for the lack of better words, wreck him with a powerful enough attack or does he simply have too much HP for a one hit kill? Probably the latter but still.
@@Cardbizzie see I always wondered if there was a game breaking bug that would create a numbers glitch or something and set his health to zero, killing him instantly. Like what happens if you try and heal him? Can I tumble buff twop him?
yeah and how many people figure that out BEFORE running through the door to the left? people also use glitches to skip entire sections of the game, doesnt mean those sections are immediatly easier
It’s rough translating a language that borrows quite a few words from English haha the original line in Japanese is “ハートレス?心なきものだ” (hatoresu? Kokoro nakimono da). The first word is just the Japanese way of pronouncing “heartless” and since a Japanese player might not know what that means Squall clarifies, “those without hearts”. Of course, when translated to English it’s super redundant since we know what Heartless means
Another one is Tales of Zestiria. Early in the game where you gathered your party members, you meet the final boss, you were meant to lose so you'll set off on a journey to be stronger all the while discovering other regions of the land. But if you're a dodge maniac and have the patience of a saint to slowly chip off the boss' HP, then you basically beat the game and got an ending cut scene, but the ending is bad since you killed the boss, but didn't realize killing the body isn't enough.
Okay seriously here I'm shock after all these years : I really dont know that fight in the Dragon age was SUPPOSED to be lose until i saw this video, OMG. I played the game at least 3 times and I win the battle everytimes, and if i lose I load immediately and not knowing the story will still progressing.
Yeah. I beat the game and all DLC's on Nightmare. Won that fight in every playthrough and didn't know about what happens when you lose until seeing it on UA-cam.
Damn my party was already incredibly strong when I faced Ser Cauthrien so I never knew you kinda had to lose. No wonder my win felt kinda bland. I missed out on that whole dungeon bit.
My favorite one is Xenogears. There’s a really, really freakin’ hard boss fight that when you play through the first time, it doesn’t seem winnable. But with the right equipment and a lot of luck, you CAN win and it gets you one of the most useful pieces of armor in the entire game. (This would be the Alpha Weltall battle for the uninitiated)
These are my favorite kinds of boss fights. The ones you're supposed to lose at, but the developers make them killable. It's also even more hilarious when the game ends and the credits roll afterwards.
I wonder which is better... A. Credits instantly roll with barely so much as a "they lived happily ever after" B. A deep thought out cutscene on par with the actual ending or C. A quick joke cutscene that talks about how quickly you defeated that ancient evil.
@@logicaloverdrive8197 Which is one of the best parts of Nier. It has like 6 real endings, and 20 joke ones where the credits scroll super fast and let you go to your last save.
Everquest’s sleeper dragon deserves a mention, even though its literally impossible for a single person, happened only once, and probably never will happen again....
Preaching to the choir, man. I mean, honestly, what did Bioware expect us to do, just roll over an die. Fuck that. We're all too awesome to die like that.
He's a complete idiot who doesn't understand game mechanics while playing the game. He has to do research for months just to come to the same realization everyone already knows. He sucks at games.
I remember there was a level in Age of Empires age of Kings for the DS where as the French you had to hurry up and take a town before the English reinforcements showed up. The reinforcements were supposed to be unstoppable, but after by funneling them through the starting island and rushing to research the castle you are able to defeat them and then take the town.
Salt and Sanctuary (which is a cool 2D Dark Souls-esque game) opens with a supposed-to-lose boss fight against a kraken on a ship 30 seconds into the game, where it beats you in one or two hits while you barely damage it, and you pass out on defeat and wake up shipwrecked on an island. If you somehow manage to win, you get its loot and the ship just crashes on the island anyway.
"to win: to be the victor in a given fight or argument" So does that mean anyone named Victor automatically wins any fight with anyone other than another Victor?
for real tho demon souls had the beat unwinnable boss fight ever. You beat the tutorial boss that you thought was unbeatable and then get a bunch of bonus loot before finding a boss ten times the size of the last that kills you with a single attack.
I am really disappointed that more of those don´t have a payoff. I know it´s not the same thing, but as an example, I would use the Far Cry 4 "wait 10 minutes" ending.
I know what you mean! Doing something incredible like, while being its own reward, still deserves something more. Like alternate endings or extra rewards.
Forgot mortal Kombat mythologies sub zero. When shinnok becomes his final form, rather than run to the escape portal, you can face him down if you unlock sub zeros strongest move and happen to have hoarded the rare urns that instantly replenish energy. If you can fire off his strongest move, use an urn, and repeat before shinnok nabs you, you can clear his health bar which causes him to fall to his death. Legitimately killing shinnok unlocks the games cutscenes bloopers.
I feel like in sekiro if you beat the first encounter with Genchiro then instead of him chopping your arm off anyway he retreats, survives, you have two arms creating special much more difficult paths for you to cross which I mean is pretty rough considering the difficulty of the game but I just thought it’d be the perfect from software thing to do
The first time i fought her i beat her with some difficulty, i didnt know losing the fight was an option until my mage playthrough got that far. Warrior play killed her, rogue surrendered because i respected her and didnt want her to die.
Seems like you always played as mage lol As a 2handed warrior that battle was almost helpless, then I went AoE mage and they all vanished in a few seconds
m alv Now, who do we have here though, is that isshin with a sword, gun & spear?! Oh... it’s the sculptor turned into a demon... No!!!... dying’s not easy for the wolf with one arm bro...
Another one for that list would be "Liberty", the final boss from Wasteland 3: Shortly after the start, she ambushes you on the world map to intimidate you and abbandon your mission. During the dialogue, you can attack her, wich triggers a ridiculously difficult bossfight. Should you manage it however, the game ends and goes straight to the ending slides, noting how the rangers completed their mission and changed Colorado forever etc.
My favorite is when you think it's an unwinnable boss fight... but you get a Game Over instead of the continuation of the story.

Aye, in Dark Souls your roll/dodge speed is determined by how heavy your gear is in combination with a particular stat. If it's high enough, you can in fact mid roll/fast roll with heavy armor (but that's usually way later into the playthrough). That's why the Naked runs are a thing, you get the fastest roll right off the bat and can use a heavy weapon two-handed because using two hands doubles your strength stat, so long as you half at least half the strength required to wield it (among other stats).
Cody Sykes shut up
When I first bought Dark Souls, it had been hyped as this game that was so hard it's practically impossible. I made a level 1 pyromancer, no armor, nothing but a broken sword hilt, and absolute baseline stats, walked into the asylum demon, and thought "Damn, they weren't kidding."
So I spent like an entire day but finally killed it with nothing but raw determination, a bit of luck, and a lot of spite. No other boss fight the series had to offer quite measured up to it.
The easy way is you can go up the stairs and there's a balcony you can plunge down from. Takes a massive chunk out of his health
@@7792thereaper thanks for a tip! Now I can start playing this game more easily. But where may I repair my broken sword? I beat the whole game with it and no Smith could make this blade look like a normal sword. Any tips, master?
@@MeVMaHyou're welcome. The way that I would do it is when the fight starts, I immediately run to the flight of the stairs to the far left end of the room. That will take you to an area where you get a full sword and a shield. This area actually takes you outside, and there's a doorway back in where you'll find the balcony. You can plunge on top of the demon for massive damage. You can do something similar with the Taurus demon. When that fight starts run back up to the tower, and drop down. Don't take too long while you're up there or he'll jump up top
@@7792thereaper thanks for all buddy. 😜
Мирный атом [FlackSaw] also, you can skip the Taurus Demon that they mentioned by starting as thief or picking the master key as your starting gift by opening the door at the bottom of the tower where you go up to fight him. Just run past the absolute unit at the bottom floor and keep heading up through darkroot
Demon Souls has a better "unbeatable" first boss. You beat him, a portal opens up, thinking you've achieved something incredible, get punched in face by Dragon God.
One one needs to be beat later, but here, we get greeted with a cutscene of course :D
but not before getting a nice load of goodies before hand, and that cutscene will always be my favorite way of having your character get to the main hub.
Honestly amazing, since it was designed to be impossible AND had the fail safe that all should employ - The Dragon version of Mike Tyson.
They've talked about him in a different version of this episode, so it would've been a bit unfair if they did it again.
Ya thats what said, asylum demon is weak scause
I’ve always enjoyed that although technically considered a speed-run, you can in fact beat hades in your very first escape attempt in supergiant’s Hades, and even get special dialogue for managing it

Nah. Seath the Scaleless literally cheats to automatically kill you the first time you meet him. The others can be defeated.

Yes!.... and they forgot about bloodborne as well :/
I watched a friend play through kh1 a year or so ago. He had never touched the series as a kid, so the final mix for ps4 was his first time with this franchise that practically raised me. During the Leon fight, right as he was about to die, I tried telling him not to worry, it's an optional fight that you aren't supposed to beat, as he finishes off Leon... Guess I am just bad...
To be fair, he also has about 30k hours invested in the demon souls series, so idk what I expected...
With 30k hours in demon souls, you’d think he take out Leon without taking damage.
...you just keep leon at range to force him to throw a fireball, then tennis it back at him. no need to get close up at all.
With so many hours in the souls series he's the embodiment of gitting good
You can tennis his fireballs back at him!?
(Not that it matters I can beat him “normally” but how didn’t I know that?)
Leon from Kingdom Hearts felt more like a "boss you don't have to beat" more than "a boss you're not suppose to beat".
If you learn how to parry in Destiny islands Leon is the easiest boss in my opinion. "Let's see what that fireball can do to your own face".

One of the most well done examples of this is in Chrono Trigger.

@@ishmadjasiir5498 not always
Just because you are correct doesn’t mean your right
That being said, that description isn’t always right. Pureblood Heartless have no hearts, as they are formed from the darkness of a heart that is consumed by darkness. However Emblem Heartless (the ones with the logo that also tend to be the more numerous and diverse enemies) are actually made around a heart. They leach the darkness from it without the heart having to be consumed (and so you can see the hearts flying off when they are killed). Now they don’t feel with those hearts, but they do technically have them in the sense that if I ate a penny, I’d have it until it passed.
"He wants to kill the kid to claim his immortality powers"
*looks up definition of Immortal*
poisenbery immortal just means you wont die natural causes not that you cant be killed
Typically in them mythos there be multiple uses of "immortality" Some people take the regenerate/immune to death one as "True Immortality" from what I noticed. Usually put on people as a curse so they live a life of unending pain/grief nonsense. The other kind just means if someone/thing doesnt murder you, disease and time cant. Yeehaw.
@Nia Gambino No it doesn't.
The origin of "immortal" is from the Latin root word "immortale". The definition of "immortale" is "immortal, eternal, everlasting, undying, deathless", meaning you cannot die... period. Natural/unnatural causes are irrelevant because once again, you cannot be killed because you cannot die. It is the exact opposite of being "mortal", hence "im-mortal". If you look up the word "immaterial", it means "having no matter or substance". It is the exact opposite of "material", hence "im-material".
Being "immortal" and "invincible" are two completely different things. With invincibility, not only can you not be killed or destroyed, you cannot be defeated or overcome either. You're virtually a god if you're invincible, which it denotes immortality in addition to absolute power.
Poisenbery is correct in his/her summation. If the kid can be killed for his "immorality" powers, then the kid was never immortal to begin with. I never played Devil May Cry 5, so it may simply that the story behind the kid is that he isn't immortal and that anyone that kills him will have "immortality" bestowed upon them like the blood of a virgin or something of that nature.
Unfortunately, today there are many ways to define the word "immortal." Many of them can be killed, not making them truly immortal, but then ... what? That is just the way it is now, I guess. Hahaha
It's true. Immortality means you can't be killed. However, your body can still be dismembered and mutilated. But, still alive. Invincibility and indestructibility mean you can't be dismembered or mutilated, but don't necessarily mean you can't age or die of age.
The Sleeper Dragon in the MMO Everquest 1. A Prismatic godly dragon who could only be awakened once per server. This would trigger a story event in which he would rampage the world (the original Deathwing really) until being told by The Nameless (IE God) that he was too powerful and the server story would progress. Suffice to say he had an insane healthpool and was full of a bunch of insta-kills and was never intended to be beaten. But if there is one thing more determined than a gamer to beat the devs , its hundreds of gamers ready to kamikaze themselves back to level one in order to prove a point. Nearly a day of fighting and millions of negative experience points later, The Sleeper was dead. No loot, no death animation, the entire server technically story locked; but that was Triumph.
i salute those brave souls!
so rare to see some one talk about everquest online. my respect to you brother/sister
Also worth noting that the Sleeper was immune to all magic except Mana Burn from wizards (and possibly life burn from necromancers, can't recall) and that could only be used once every 8 real time hours, so it isn't even worth it. And all but 2 classes relied, at least in part, on said magic for damage. 250+ players from three different guilds on one of the more brutal PvP servers ever, where you could kill anyone and loot their body of an item teamed up twice for this feat. The first time SoE despawned the boss after 6 hours of fighting and lied saying it was automatically done due to respawns. Undaunted after people proved SoE to be full of it they went back at it the next day. Truly a feat to remember.
Came here to say this. I've also heard that the Sleeper had three million units of health and could one-hit kill multiple players in one swoop.
Kerafyrm! GOD yes! Damn I miss EQ...
Tales of Symphonia ought to have been added to this list, because when you reach the "Tower of Salvation" for the first time, you are thrusted into a boss battle without two of your party members against a so-called "Angel" facading as one of your characters' father. When it is revealed that they weren't who they claimed to be, you must fight them. The game intends for you to looze that battle, but if you win, you end up fighting a former team member, "Kratos". Once again, you are expected to looze the battle, but if you win even against him as well, then the final boss comes to face you. The probability of winning the fight against the final boss at that point in the game is extremely small for multiple reasons. First, his level is so high comparatively to your own that each individual hit you inflict against him barely does 1% to 2% damage; meaning you are basically giving him mild scratches at best. Additionally, since he is the third fight in a succession of back-to-back fights where the cut-scenes give you absolutely no time to heal nor reposition, you're entering the battle already handicapped. And on top of that, since you are missing two party members, you have a diminished force to face against the final boss as well. However, despite the devastating odds, it is theoretically possible to win! But even if you lower the Final Boss's health down to 0%, a cut-scene triggers where he summons a OHKO attack that instantly wipes out your party regardless. No telling why that Final Boss didn't simply use that OHKO move at the start of the battle instead; would have saved the player a lot of effort trying to very slowly whittle his HP to nothing only for him to turn around and instantly knock-out your party anyway. I happen to know this only because I was one such fool who tried time after time after time again to defeat that Final Boss during that earlier portion of the game; and when I finally succeeded, the cut-scene wipes out my team no matter what. Incidentally, whenever I replay Tales of Symphonia, I will legitimately try to beat the first two bosses strictly for the "Experience Points", but then when the third and Final Boss comes out, I no longer even fight back anymore... My previous victory against him ironically caused me to looze my will to fight that Final Boss at all.........

Your first encounter with Gades in Lufia 2. Normally he floors you with successive Destructo Waves. But with some grinding, using certain equipment, and a lot of patience (takes at least 15 minutes), you can whittle his large HP pool. You even win his Sword afterwards (which has arguably the strongest IP attack, Octo-Strike).
That's before he knocks out your party in a post battle cutscene anyways.
Ironic that he is the NEXT boss after that as well, but he's just a regular boss then (with somewhat higher then average HP). And the times you encounter him late game, he's kind of a joke.

I wasn't sure that the LEON fight should be on there. I always thought he was kind of a pushover. Easily exploited attack openings and telegraphed attacks make him kind of a cake walk. He just hits kind of hard, so you need to block and move a lot more than before. Then again, considering the only fight you've had up to that point is a few shadows and the series joke that is Darkside... yeah, I guess he'd be hard to new players.

For the Dragon Age: Origins 'unwinnable' boss fight, you can also win it by using either blood magic (which is super OP) or an item duplication glitch to give yourself infinite stats (beating Cauthrien isn't hard when you've got 900 strength and constitution. ;)
"Until you meet the Taurus Demon..." Eh. At least you don't get punched into the ground by a dragon.
God, that Dragon was hench
That was a buff dragon
That was a true unkillable boss right there.
I killed him in one hit watchu on
What about the dungeon guardian in Terraria?
He has 9999 health, and no matter what weapon you have, you deal 1 damage per hit.
Me and my friends beated them it took a while but its possible and if you beat them you get a key that allows you to summon a guardian but the guardian you summon cant fight tho im not sure if the key drop is 100 percent
The dungeon guardian drops the bone key which summons a dungeon guardian pet that's all just bragging rights
Is it that bone guy?
No, cause i beated him alone twice
Mini shark with crystal bullets with an arena with teleporters.
The Dungeon Guardian in Terraria was programmed to have a special drop after someone spent forever to prove that it can be beat. By the way, in case you have never played Terraria, it has 9,999 health (double that in Expert mode and triple that in Master mode), 9,999 defense, ensuring that you will always do 1 damage (2 with a critical hit), and will always insta-kill you if it successfully hits you.
If you drop Nemesis every single encounter, the last drop is 'unlimited ammo' case, usable on any weapon to , you guessed it, give unlimited ammo of that weapon.
I prefer to put it on the magnum as it's the most versatile weapon with very high power.
Though most just tend to put it on the grenade launcher with ice or flame rounds (I prefer acid rounds)
However you can earn more unlimited ammo cases (that carry over into the core game) but doing more special side missions (the challenge runs and earning in game money).
It was a fun way to extend the life of the game.
"seemingly unbeatable boss fights in dark souls"
Me: no way you can kill invincible Seath???
"The asylum demon is a seemingly impossible boss"
Me: oh
The first time you face him, he is invincible, so there’s no way to kill him there. The best you can do is a glitch to skip that bit.
@@Dark_Mishra No ur wrong. U can kill him with the black fire bombs from the starting gift. Which the dude in the gameplay for this vid even had. I do it everytime on my new runs
AnalogFlame he’s talking about Seath not the Asylum demon
This always made me a bit invested in that fight. There is a place really close to Seath, just slightly to the right of the center of the room (great geographical description, I know) where he can't hit you. Of course he recovers his health instantly but is it possible to, for the lack of better words, wreck him with a powerful enough attack or does he simply have too much HP for a one hit kill? Probably the latter but still.
@@Cardbizzie see I always wondered if there was a game breaking bug that would create a numbers glitch or something and set his health to zero, killing him instantly. Like what happens if you try and heal him? Can I tumble buff twop him?
The actual unbeatable boss is Black Desert's ad on every platform.
Rivaled only by the amount of sponsorships Raid shadow legends does
Xornedge OK BUT AT LEAST BLACK DESERT IS GOOD UNLIKE... you know who
WÖRM ÇÛŁT I doubt it
Its definetly not bad. If you like MMO's and grinding
I dont.
@@RedditStoryEntertainment that was before raid ads popped to me
“Asylum demon is hard”
*black fire bombs as a starting gift* :allow us to introduce ourselfs
yeah and how many people figure that out BEFORE running through the door to the left?
people also use glitches to skip entire sections of the game, doesnt mean those sections are immediatly easier
But that means not taking the master key, doesn't it?
Bruh you don't even need crutches for that game, ds1 is probably the easiest souls game.
Squall Leonhart: Heartless, those with out hearts
Me: Water, is wet
Thanks Leon
It’s rough translating a language that borrows quite a few words from English haha the original line in Japanese is “ハートレス?心なきものだ” (hatoresu? Kokoro nakimono da). The first word is just the Japanese way of pronouncing “heartless” and since a Japanese player might not know what that means Squall clarifies, “those without hearts”. Of course, when translated to English it’s super redundant since we know what Heartless means
ouch, you made too far of a jump there. Water is just watery
Waterless, those without water
If u had no idea what water was, ud be actually wiser after hearing that ^^
I got a feeling this is one of those lines that sounds badass in the original language but seems dumb translated
Deserves a thumbs up purely for the spoiled games list before spoiling
"Use their speed and agility"
*Tumbles around at the speed of snail*
A snail is still faster than the demon
That’s the joke.
@@vladtheimpaler190 that s their own dumbness. If they were to unequip the armor the could move and roll much faster
Another one is Tales of Zestiria. Early in the game where you gathered your party members, you meet the final boss, you were meant to lose so you'll set off on a journey to be stronger all the while discovering other regions of the land.
But if you're a dodge maniac and have the patience of a saint to slowly chip off the boss' HP, then you basically beat the game and got an ending cut scene, but the ending is bad since you killed the boss, but didn't realize killing the body isn't enough.
The Unspeakable Deep from Salt and Sanctuary, although it should be well known
it is known.
That’s the exact boss I thought of when I read the title of this video
What’s Salt and Sanctuary
@@Soybadguy1 2D sidescrolled Demon Souls. To give you a basic idea.
Tokio Miller me too!!!
Not supposed to be able to beat Dark Souls with just the broken sword eh?
*laughs in ZeroLenny
DS2 Protagonist with a broken ladle VS Fume Knight
*ymfahs with malicious intent
that one is in general not unbeatable, I've done it a few times
Oh shit boi waddup. You wanna wrestle with the Lenny?
Okay seriously here I'm shock after all these years : I really dont know that fight in the Dragon age was SUPPOSED to be lose until i saw this video, OMG. I played the game at least 3 times and I win the battle everytimes, and if i lose I load immediately and not knowing the story will still progressing.
I won that fight everytime.
Storm of the Century made any cluster fights like that a breeze as i recall
yeah no kidding, i beat the fight and thought that was it, i still need to finish that game.... if it doesnt crash again
I never knew I was supposed to lose that fight either. I always used the hallway kiting strategy, or I was so powerful that I steamrolled them.
Yeah. I beat the game and all DLC's on Nightmare. Won that fight in every playthrough and didn't know about what happens when you lose until seeing it on UA-cam.
Damn my party was already incredibly strong when I faced Ser Cauthrien so I never knew you kinda had to lose. No wonder my win felt kinda bland. I missed out on that whole dungeon bit.
'7 unwinnable boss fights you can beat if you're good enough"
me: wait...
The floor isn't made out of floor.....but is made out of floor.
Let's be honest though, is the Genechiro boss fight *really* a win if we think about it?
@@Keithixix is "peace with honour" a peace with honour?
Joke's on them. I'll never be good enough.
My favorite one is Xenogears. There’s a really, really freakin’ hard boss fight that when you play through the first time, it doesn’t seem winnable. But with the right equipment and a lot of luck, you CAN win and it gets you one of the most useful pieces of armor in the entire game.
(This would be the Alpha Weltall battle for the uninitiated)
These are my favorite kinds of boss fights. The ones you're supposed to lose at, but the developers make them killable.
It's also even more hilarious when the game ends and the credits roll afterwards.
I wonder which is better... A. Credits instantly roll with barely so much as a "they lived happily ever after" B. A deep thought out cutscene on par with the actual ending or C. A quick joke cutscene that talks about how quickly you defeated that ancient evil.
@@Kjf365 C, because you still wanna play the rest of the game.
@@logicaloverdrive8197 Which is one of the best parts of Nier. It has like 6 real endings, and 20 joke ones where the credits scroll super fast and let you go to your last save.
@@Winasaurus its been in my steam wishlist for a while... Maybe I should get it.
@@logicaloverdrive8197 You should. If you've ever liked Platinum games combat you should like that.
Everquest’s sleeper dragon deserves a mention, even though its literally impossible for a single person, happened only once, and probably never will happen again....
THERE WAS A WHACKY JAIL BREAK IN DRAGON AGE
I ALWAYS BEAT HER I DIDNT KNOW THIS WTF
Same dozen playthroughs never seen it
Same. I didn't know that you were supposed to lose.
High dex duelist rogue ftw
same, beat her first try too
Preaching to the choir, man. I mean, honestly, what did Bioware expect us to do, just roll over an die. Fuck that. We're all too awesome to die like that.
Wait Leon was supposed to win? I remember always beating him when I was like 5
The moment u realize that u did something awesome without knowing about it 😂
Same lol
Forget Leon , No Sephiroth???
Bruh when you prepare *too* much for the boss battle
Yeah I’m sure you did.
This list made me realize that if you name your child Leon they're definitely going to become an absolute tank
Leom from Kingdom Hearts has really low hp...
The very fact that you put up a spoiler warning even for old games earned a like. I literally beat FF7 for the first time yesterday.
I love the secret ending you can get from DMC 5, it literally the game telling you "congrats, you won. No more game for you, b*tch."
True, it literally is like "Well you won, not sure how long and how the hell you did it but uh. Congratulations?"
Mike: *hip fires a pulse rifle while standing still*
Also Mike: "Why did I die?"
Zachary Plimpton he underestimated the power of the S H A N K
He's a complete idiot who doesn't understand game mechanics while playing the game. He has to do research for months just to come to the same realization everyone already knows. He sucks at games.
@@KatieTheNarwhal most gaming "jpurnalists" do
@@HavikXIII Yeah it take months to "git gud" at some games. Someone who's only played for a few hours will be an enthusiastic novice at best.
Paraphrasing the Title:
"Can I beat this Boss?"
Well yes, but actually no.
I think you mean "no but actually yes"
"The law requires that I say "no"."
I remember there was a level in Age of Empires age of Kings for the DS where as the French you had to hurry up and take a town before the English reinforcements showed up. The reinforcements were supposed to be unstoppable, but after by funneling them through the starting island and rushing to research the castle you are able to defeat them and then take the town.
Salt and Sanctuary (which is a cool 2D Dark Souls-esque game) opens with a supposed-to-lose boss fight against a kraken on a ship 30 seconds into the game, where it beats you in one or two hits while you barely damage it, and you pass out on defeat and wake up shipwrecked on an island. If you somehow manage to win, you get its loot and the ship just crashes on the island anyway.
"to win: to be the victor in a given fight or argument"
So does that mean anyone named Victor automatically wins any fight with anyone other than another Victor?
That would be the pun with the Pokémon named Victini, I'd assume. There, @Moobattle, you cretin!
yes
As someone named Victor, yes, this is how it works
@@FernandoRafaelNogueiraReis Victini, you cretin
@@moobattle Fixed, mate!
What about Chrono Trigger?
You can kill Lavos in first encounter. If You're Good Enough.
muskdeer 92
Yeah! Thought about that too!
I was going to say that!
And Lynx in Serge's body in Chrono Cross, but that leads to one of the most bullshit cut scenes i have ever seen.
If you power level enough!
I was thinking of Dalton's Golem the first time you meet it. Beating the darn thing doesn't change the plot whatsoever, but it sure feels good!
I love how if you manage to beat the Vanguard Demon in Demon Souls it just gives you an even stronger boss
>clicks on video
>expected Sekiro and Dark Souls
>sees spoiler lists
Wasn't disappointed
Demon souls should have been in here as well tbh
for real tho demon souls had the beat unwinnable boss fight ever. You beat the tutorial boss that you thought was unbeatable and then get a bunch of bonus loot before finding a boss ten times the size of the last that kills you with a single attack.
I was expecting Doku in Ninja Gaiden Sigma. He's a boss of chapter 2 and defeating him skips all the other chapters and instantly wins the game.

@@polarbaloon ummm, yea? It's the spoiler list? Hello?
I am really disappointed that more of those don´t have a payoff.
I know it´s not the same thing, but as an example, I would use the Far Cry 4 "wait 10 minutes" ending.
I know what you mean! Doing something incredible like, while being its own reward, still deserves something more. Like alternate endings or extra rewards.
Forgot mortal Kombat mythologies sub zero. When shinnok becomes his final form, rather than run to the escape portal, you can face him down if you unlock sub zeros strongest move and happen to have hoarded the rare urns that instantly replenish energy. If you can fire off his strongest move, use an urn, and repeat before shinnok nabs you, you can clear his health bar which causes him to fall to his death. Legitimately killing shinnok unlocks the games cutscenes bloopers.
I feel like in sekiro if you beat the first encounter with Genchiro then instead of him chopping your arm off anyway he retreats, survives, you have two arms creating special much more difficult paths for you to cross which I mean is pretty rough considering the difficulty of the game but I just thought it’d be the perfect from software thing to do
Good luck getting anywhere without that grappling hook!
I didn't even know you could lose to that lady in dragon age. I always beat her. Not a brag. I just didn't even know.
When i saw dragon age on the spoiler list i was like wtf? I've never encountered a *supposed to lose* boss in DAO
Me too!
The first time i fought her i beat her with some difficulty, i didnt know losing the fight was an option until my mage playthrough got that far. Warrior play killed her, rogue surrendered because i respected her and didnt want her to die.
there's a persuade option if youre playing rogue tho
Seems like you always played as mage lol
As a 2handed warrior that battle was almost helpless, then I went AoE mage and they all vanished in a few seconds
Genichiro, to beat him like a hero, reduce his health to Zero.

When people try to poison pizza with durian, I'll agree there.
Another one for that list would be "Liberty", the final boss from Wasteland 3: Shortly after the start, she ambushes you on the world map to intimidate you and abbandon your mission. During the dialogue, you can attack her, wich triggers a ridiculously difficult bossfight. Should you manage it however, the game ends and goes straight to the ending slides, noting how the rangers completed their mission and changed Colorado forever etc.
The devil may cry one was the most logical ending unlike any other game that would loop around it to keep the story going
*sees Dark Souls*
Oh hey maybe they figured out a way to kill him on the first try! Who you ask? Our Scaleless friend Se-
