- *Watch in HD* Behold! The true real Final Boss of Cave Story, Ballos!
*Ballos [Form 1]*
Kind of easy, he just jumps in that circle until he has less than half his Hp then he'll use some lighting attacks.
*Ballos [Form 2]*
Still easy but tedious, He only jumps three times and then waits for a second or two. I wasted alot of time until I said "fuck it!" and use the rockets on his eye which makes the battle last a second.
*Ballos [Form 3]*
The easiest in my opinion, either the Spur or the Nemesis will work.
*Ballos [Form 4]*
Great!...the angels are back...its pretty simple just that the angels might block your path and knock you down. You can also use the rockets on his red eye to end the battle quick unless you want to deal with some annoyance.
The fact that Ballos actually wants to lose and die kind of makes this battle hard to beat emotionally.
Then you lose like 500 times and the emotion goes away- IF YOU WANT TO DIE SO MUCH THEN JUST LET ME KILL YOU ALREADY
(If you can't tell, I'm currently trying to beat him now... And failing miserably)
I personally didn't care but this game really made a example of how video game storytelling can be done which directly or indirectly inspired my favourite games considering they are mostly all indie
Yeah, he's like a person during a zombie apocalypse who has been infected and wants someone to kill him before it's too late because he's not able to do it. It's depressing when a person knows their only best outcome is to be killed.
yep, that's definitely the fight you could describe as "hard as balls"
His face
That smile
The perfect man
SANS?!?
I thought the battle was over when you first beat him... I was hella wrong.
ikr
honestlyAngsty It's not fair because ballos is like a twin tower
rip those who wasted their lifepot
Me 😂😂
Me too ;-;
I did, and I end up starting the fight with 24 HP or so
Chan0 :Oh goddamnit I wasted my life pot also!!!
Me
Rocket spam is the true way to defeat ballos.
Rocket spam is the true form of defeating anything
Less Curly
I defeat with the nemesis and blade
what happens if I used most of them on heavy press
@@maskoflifetheforce try with another weapon :/
He red faces are the souls of people he killed he's all filled with them because he's about to explode

Ballos is a coomer
I reply to the old comment
mmmmm i'm so full of souls yum
The second stage always gets me.
First stage? Not too hard.
Third stage? Easy.
Fourth stage? Super rocket spam.
But THAT is the section that keeps getting me, goddamnit.
How?
Now do it with 3 health, the level 1 polar star, and no life pot.
_actually, you'd die in one hit with 3 health, so the life pot would be redundant_
I think someone already did.
Okay so just playing on hard mode?
@@MiuIruma yes
In hard mode though you’re able to still get 1 of the health upgrades if you talk to the dog before entering the final cave
And if Curly lands a single hit on ballos, you have to reset. Also, lv3 nemesis instead of lv1 polar star.
Jeez, I have never been happier to see balrog. I can hear the Indiana Jones theme play in my head as he bursts in.
I think I had more trouble with hell in this game than I had with the whole of Demon's Souls...
1:29 It's BALLos!
3 yeas late but, that's way he is named Ballos lol
I was about to name that pun...
No matter how many times I see or play this boss fight, I still get the shivers. It's so awesome.
Yeah
The fact that three different, totally unique tracks play throughout the battle lends a LOT to the grandiose feeling of awe and success you get from fighting it. Not to mention, you just made it through hell, and you worked your butt off to save Curly and you just get saved by the FIRST boss in the game in a total heel turn? Amazing storytelling, compounded by impeccable game design. Cave Story is one of the greats, and let’s not forget it was originally COMPLETELY free (not to say it isn’t worth the $30 it costs today).
lmfao please guys, take your rose tinted nostalgia goggles off for two seconds. did we even just watch the same boring repetitive easily readable only-has-2-attacks-per-phase final boss??? such ridiculous glazing over such mediocrity LOL
@@spimbles I like this boss and whatever that it is not so complicated, undead core is not complicated either, but it is also final boss
He's not the one who's fighting, it's his magic that forces him to.
He was unable to retain his humanity
It was my magic he borrowed that he couldn't control
y'know
for kids
The False Prophet technically its not rated
www.esrb.org/ratings/Synopsis.aspx?Certificate=26832&Title=Cave+Story
The False Prophet technically this is the pc version and it isnt listed...WAIT THOUGH? PS2?
Not for kids its supposed to be for everyone to enjoy
Massif Bros.
Yeah, but it includes the kids
This makes me wonder.
In the other ending where you let the island fall to destruction, did Ballos die in that ending as well?
Probably not. Ballos' magic makes him immortal if I remember correctly.
@@thedeadweight5726 Actually I think the whole reason he was trying to pull the island down was so he could kill himself. And obviously in this battle we kill him so he's not immortal
@@thedeadweight5726 immortal. unless you have sufficient rocket.
eh, he probably ded.
oh wait, that makes sense, thank you for correction.
TLDR: Ballos was killed physically but not spiritually.
The ghost dog says that his out of control magic made it so he couldn't die, after the boss fight, before the walls start closing in, Ballos mentions that he is in pain despite not being physically present anymore, and this isn't just flavor text, Curly reacts to it BEFORE noticing the walls, also, Balrog doesn't say "You killed Ballos, right?" He only says beat, not killed, implying that Balrog is aware that Ballos cannot die, and on a musical note, the song that plays when the walls close in is 'Zombie' the same song that plays when the red crystal infused spirit of the doctor appears to initiate the Undead Core fight.
I think that the hardest part of the boss is the learning process. Other than that, he's actually mildly easy. Still a great challenge, though.
*Looks at Cave Story+ ESRB rating*
Me: This is rated E?!
Kirby Dreamland 3 and Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards: Welcome to the club buddy!
I'm supposed to be rescuing my best friend, but this one evil wizard keeps kicking my ass. I'm other words, I can not beat him. At least, not in his fourth form.
3:56
I think that he's filled with a ton of bloody people…
*Virgin Sans VS Chad Ballos*
Ballos would win easily
Every video I see makes me feel like geting the machine gun was a mistake on my run for the best ending.
You think that’s bad? I got the flippin snake.
@@omegalite8788 OOOOF
Ballos is pretty easy. Getting to him is extremely hard. I used this strategy to beat him:
Stage 1 - The Machinegun when he's on the ground. When he goes airborne and shoots lightning, I constantly sidestep to avoid them, while spamming Curly's Nemesis. If you do that, almost every bullet will hit him, and thanks to that you can focus on avoiding his lightning.
Stage 2 - Using the Booster to fly under him. When he stops jumping, I boost myself on a little platform next to his eye with the Blade, spam the button for around a second and jump down. One attack session like that will take down around 15% of his health, even if the Blade is on Level 1.
Stage 3 - Basically, the same strategy as with form 1 - focusing on dodging his projectiles and spamming Curly's Nemesis into the air.
Stage 4 - Ignore all the damage, jump on the little platform right next to his eye, spam Super Missiles, and pray he dies quicker than you.
Filip Melzacki I
Lol "pray"
Actually, I found a better strategy for Phase 4 if you're using the Machine Gun. Lv3 Machine Gun is a must. The strategy is hovering above Ballos by shooting downwards in the air. That way, majority of the arrows should miss you, and you can still damage Ballos at the same time.
If you use the Spur, he's a joke.
king's knife lvl 3 and curly using nemesis, you can go through all of his stages in probably just a minute
Its the deez nuts guy in disguise.
Lmfao
gottem
Some people said that was the EASIEST, all u gotta do is use a rocket booster, get on his head, shoot some bats, get some hp, exp, maybe some missle ammo, get back down and keep shooting. get alot of hp for the next phase
I CAME HERE FROM TERRARIA CALAMITY :O
also the remix version fucking AWESOME
He is afraid of Pain for his experiences. He WANNA DIE but he is afraid of Pain. Thats why he have to be killed by a warrior. His instincts make him want to fight back.
His Ghost dog notes that his Magic is out of control. He doesn't want to do it, but it's no use. He can't reign over himself
Cave Story?First heard it from a PPSSPP homebrew with a same name.Now this game makes more sense by seeing the REAL one.
Does it bother anybody else that Ballos, the true final boss of the game, doesn't have a single theme of his own?
Both Gravity and Eyes of Flame are used throughout the game, and Final Battle is shared with Undead Core.
I was really interested how you would take on the fourth phase, since that's where things usually go to shit. Guess spam and praying to pixel is a commonly accepted tactic ^^
One of my favorite Final Bosses of all time.
My childhood right here
For someone who wants to die this guy is fighting pretty hard >.>
wants to die but is afraid of pain.
"Time to open my eyes..."
real men get trough hell without their life pot
And then use it while fighting Ballos. lol I finally beat him today. Not too bad once you get his pattern down...and you have a life pot.
i actually meant dealing with hell and ballos without a life pot.i did it about six times
ultimatepwnerful I'd love to see a playthrough of that.
should i upload one ?
I did it! Only because I forgot I had the life pot :P
My little brother and I find this battle easy even without the spur. He does is casually as a warm up for the day.
In his defence though it does seem like the boos fight is easier than the sacred grounds themself
No
Ballos is so creepy!
Of all the bosses I've had to fight, Ballos was by far the hardest, considering the fact you had to pay VERY close fucking attention, cause if you didn't, you're fucked. But multiply that by 100.
Which is better
Blade or Nemesis?
I say blade, sure it has low range, but it's powerful and doesn't get weaker when leveled up
it kills many bosses easily, like Puu Black, Monster X, Balrog, both Core fights, and is pretty good against Ballos's second and third phase
it's got the best damage of any unleveled weapon for sure
My God you make it look easy.
Just devote an entire Sunday to it.
i can only imagine how Ballos looks in the 3d version...
LIKE TRASH LIKE THE ENTIRE GAME CAVE STORY 3D IS JUST TRASH GRAFFIC'S GOD WHO SET THE BRIGHTNESS TOO 1 I CANT SEE SHIT
smooth. fuzzy. terrible
Wish zelda bosses were this challenging...
Soundtrack: PSSHHHHHCCKKKSHHHHHHHHSHHHHHCKSHHHHHHHPSHHH
How did you take like almost no damage before the fight?
You use the life pot Jenka gives you. You save it untill you fight Ballos.
He used the life pot in the middle of the fight with Ballos though.
TheIguanaJr you get two in the game
WHAT
Twenty Seventh Letter Jenna gives you one and she's mother gives you one
God this boss was hell on steroids
ballos is so fucking easy now I've mastered all of his movements, patterns and attacks :D
good luck to those who are having trouble with him
Ballos is hard af the first time
hell as a whole isn't that difficult. the challenge is doing it all in a short amount of time. hell, you can get to Ballos with full health, it justs takes a long time grinding hearts.
BTW it's called the blood stained sanctuary
I CANT FIRCKING BEAT IT!
probably because im playing this on my 3ds...
cant even pass the first form
and also if a rocket spam it doesnt work
sigh im watching this just as i lose to ballos and just realised that i forgot the use the potion -.- i was so close to beating his 2nd form :(
If you lose to him, you have to do the first part of the area again.
I didn't think anything was harder than Misery + Doctor + Berserk Doctor + Undead Core & Possessed Sue & Possessed Misery all in a row.
I was so fucking wrong.
@@OrionoftheStar I almost yeeted myself out a window because of the blood stained sanctuary itself
*R A T E D E F O R E V E R Y O N E*
Star allies was censored but it had the same rating as this game
Who do you think this is, Zero2?
sydmanone zero 2 was a bit more disturbing I mean he's the most gruesome character of the Kirby series
@@maverickdarkrath4780 true
Ballos actually has only 3 forms. only you cannot damage the main body in the first stage of form 3. It is weird that people treat it having 4 forms.
I playes an 8-bit version of ultra Nacrozma and it works for this lol
To bad i wasnt able to get the spur.
I never could defeat him
is that a face inside of ballos in the final form
Yes . Is Scary as fuck
Look closely
no, that's the face of Sans from Earthbound.
Not just _a_ face. He's filled to busting at the seams with bloody skulls.
That's the joke
I killed him with the Snake :D (Feel Like a Pro)
Snake? was it Solid or Liquid? wait don't tell me. The Big and Boss one right?
AlexDeGhost he lied to you, It was Raiden
Ioseph Stalin NOOOOOO!!!
AlexDeGhost Snake, is dead.... here's the last radio message. "Snake? SNAKE?! SNAAAAAKKKKEEE!!!!!"
+Ninten SR i killed him with the blade:D
I beat this game 4 times but 50 tries trying to beat it
This boss is so hard to defeat
6 minutes? Really took you a while
I used my Life Pot on the Undead Core. I don’t think I’ll be able to beat this (been at it for almost 4 hours. Also Bloodstained Sanctuary B2 can F off)
This dude's not hard it's just,
The FUCKING 290 COUNTER and having to beat the entire thing in a specific amount of time.
That boss feels like it would be fun if i didn't hAVE TO WASTE MY LIFE DOING THE SAME BULLSH*T SECTION OVER AND OVER JUST TO SEE ONE MORE OF HIS ATTACKS
Same, but it's actually easy enough when you get used to going on and on in blood stained sanctuary
@@Crayon_Egbert look. I played and conquered Pantheon of Hallownest in Hollow Knight, and at least there the road leading to the final boss was fun to me. This one's not.
I dont have the spur and now try without spam rockets
I think thats pretty fair when you are fighting someone who basically has the power of god .-.
And you relentlessly kill that person with the ultimate weapon and a fucking rocket launcher that fires 3 missiles and only one is used out of the 30 missiles yeah that seems fair indeed
I'm gonna feel stupid for asking this but was this cut out of the 3ds version? I played that one & I have no memory of fighting this dude (Sorry this was a stupid question)
It's a secret boss ;) You have to save Professor Booster and Curly in order to him.
Damn... I gotta do this on hard mode...
F
the only really hard phases are the 1st one, and the 4th one.
Still easier than Monster Fucking X
Monster X is easy tf are you talking about?
hell is sooo hard!.....OH DEAR GOD THERE IS A THERD FORM!?!?!
4*
Can anyone tell me where I can get this game I just found out about it
Woah another ending? I beat the game before and the ending for me was just Quote and the green haired doctor flying on a drsgon to the sunset
That's the bad ending!
Bad ending shit Lord!
You got the bad ending dude
One Punch Man!!!!
So the final boss is a daruma statue - interesting =)
i don’t think it is
BALlOS
NU DIEING WTH (what the heck)
Theres alot of pepes
Been trying to beat hell for like 2 days now. I always die right before Heavy Press (mainly because I'm too impatient) but this will definatley help me out once I reach ballos. XD
I'm not I'm patient I just ether get to caught up with the music or I get fucking murdered cuz I only have 25 Heath past the spikes of suicide that curly somehow survived and no I don't have the life pot or maybe my attention is all over the place causing me to get distracted and I die
i ALMOST beat this fight... he was at like, almost a quarter of his hp left
i cant
Who ever says ballos is the hardest boss, never tried fighting Devour of gods, Calamaits, And SUPREME CALAMATIS!
... shut up not like running through fucking hell is easy ok?
LOL
Easy
This is so frikking cheap your forced to go through 3 or 4 rooms of *total pain* that are *already really hard* then defeat a boss with *4* phases and if you don’t have a life pot your already dead
like what the absolute frikk!? B.S.S is BS
darn it your good
Your even better if you beat ballos with lv.1 Bubbline without dying >:D
Somecallmejohnny said this part was an insane difficulty spike but I've seen other videos of this fight and they seemed to have hardly any trouble with this guy. Maybe he meant the area leading up to him.
Ethan Ciotti well yeah
hell doesnt have any checkpoints
They were pros we are mearly peasant's to them
Dimensionaljester24 :I’ve beaten Ballos before and got the best ending in Cave Story!!!
Remember when Cave Story was the thing instead of Undertale? XD
Good times, now barely anyone remembers Cave Story :')
Miu Iruma :Yeah stupid Undertale I hate the game and it’s fanbase!!!!!
@@timothyroehm4307 Undertale isn't a bad game, but it is definitely overrated. The fanbase is actual cancer tho
@@timothyroehm4307 You were right on the last part, but the game itself is not bad, it's actually great. But that just my opinion, Cave Story is also a great game as well.
@@MiuIruma I do
I'd like to see you try this.
only not harder than scal
If you haven't played cave story + on hard mode then do it pussy
Wait... ballos has one colored eye... short with a wide head... grin... attacks with bones....
Yes it's me in the past
The way this guy plays gives me anxiety
Straight up this boss is ass like it is not fun
This entire ending sucks.
No
This boss battle is such a clusterfuck. Your characters small sprite combined with all shit going on screen makes it easy to lose track of where your character is during this fight. Seriouslu fuck this game and thia bullshit ass final boss
Nah he's great
Nah F@ck this game.
