I'm disappointed... There wasn't an 8th entry after #1.
Dammit what an obvious joke I've missed -Rob
Lol Hi Rob :D
ImaminahsGames Ha! I was thinking it would have been funny if there was a bunch of "accidentally" unedited footage at the end. Yours makes more sense.
That would had been a great joke.
ImaminahsGames yeah that was for sure a missed opportunity
Imagine how many of these "Final bosses" that would be hidden behind dlc's if they came out today
You mean like the five years of destiny two
@@dredgen_trump4606 destiny? Gee thanks, now I feel old.
No, I'm referring to the golden age of gaming. When dlc's wasn't even a word. When you got a game you got the whole game and not 50-75% of it. When companies that sold games with game breaking glitches were held liable for their faulty product and not just put up with in the hopes that they would fix it while those same companies made sequels with the exact same problems like Fallout 3, NV and 4.
@@jasonoverman9679 sir, have you played fallout 3 and new Vegas?
Am I the only one that feels sad that friday only comes once a week... #loveRob
Elite Killer nope... i wish there were more Fridays in a week! I love Robs Friday Features!
Elite Killer rob does make the Friday worth the weekly grind lol
Elite Killer you shouldn't. The reason Friday feature means so much to us is BECAUSE it only comes on Friday.
nope
Let's ask a Monday Feature then
Persona 5
Masayoshi Shido > Holy Grail > Yaldabaoth, God of Control
Wizz Pigg from Diddy Kong Racing destroyed my 8 year old self esteem, truly a traumatic last boss psych plunging into the depth of space and time.
Why is no one mentioning the fact that Kingdom Hearts 1 never seems to end with the boss battles.
Jay McMillon You read my mind. I honestly thought maybe after Malifecent and then Riku/Ansem it would be the end, but wait.. No? There's another world? Ugh ok. (Not to mention Hollow Bastion is confusing as heck) then you need to go fight Ansem again... And then again... and... again? OMG DIE ALREADY. And let's not even mention those freaking balls that shoot lasers at you as you try to kill Ansem for the 50th time. I can't express how satisfying it was to finally beat that game.
Caleb Folts Made it worse on the original PS2 having to rewatch cutscenes of you happened to die. Lol
Jay McMillon I was recently talking to a friend about that lol, we were so happy to find out you can skip them in the remaster.
Caleb Folts I know right lol
Cause all the end bosses are pretty much just different forms of Ansem, there wasn't really a new hidden contender that comes out of nowhere after you beat him.
Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack in Time. The entire game Dr. Nefarious is the villain, then after you beat him you have to fight Azimuth, a fellow Lombax who aided our heroes in their journey.
Yep, that was a cool plot twist.
persona 4. i feel like the persona series was one of the best video game series ever
Almost all SMT and persona games always have a fake final boss i think.
INfernoLake some of them have different endings and secret bosses instead of a true boss
You feel that way probably because it is one of the best video game series ever
Persona 3 had an even bigger twists due to the fact that you end up killing the 12 Boss Shadows only to find out that they were the key to causing the end of the world (whoops) then you have to go an kill off you broski (nooo) and then fight Nyx.
And in Dragon Quest 8, Rhapthorne isn't even ACTUALLY the real final boss! Once you roll the end credits the game lets you go on another quest where you get info on the heroes' origins and fight a multiform transforming dragon that you have to beat several times to get the ultimate armor and the true ending. Of course, then after beating him you have to go back and fight Rhapthorne *again* to trigger the credits, but that is what it is and he's a total pushover at that point.
robbybevard in terms of story he’s the real final boss the Dragovian King is a post game boss that can get you the true ending (but you only need to beat one of its forms for that ending)
That sounds like the definition of a raid boss
my brother told me about the dragovain king but i have never seen him or fought him
then they released the definitive edition on the 3ds and you have an even harder boss dungeon than the dragovian trials
Where is Delsin??? Why is Dave taking the place of Delsin in bits?
Stanosuke he explained he was writing him out of Friday features
when did he explain that..?
Yea I kind of miss delsin
#BringBackDelsin!
Finally, people acknowledging Delsin! I've been posting this comment for the last couple months
#BringBackDelsin
Being cocky because i destroyed Alduin twice on Legendary difficulty. Then the Ebony Warrior shows up.
And then modifications... And Miraak...
Eh, Harkon is debatably the weakest boss I think
And exploding chickens
GruzzyDutch DEA I fucked him up using the ignite spell
How long have you all played
This is the only channel that I can forgive for showing (massive) spoilers.
How did you not take the opportunity to fake out your viewers and add an entry at the end that was the "real" final entry? Shame
Who liked that in Injustice 2, Braniac wasnt the Finall boss but it was actually Batman or Superman
Mort3000 It was exactly what anyone who played the story should have expected.
for #7 I was thinking "wait does he not know about Moon Presence?" but then you did the little 'Right?' bit and I was like
ahhhhhh,
World of Final Fantasy.
That "Ending"... Then an extra 10 hours.
Wogle Can't wait to get back to playing that.. was playing it quite abit but then Digimon world, next order came out....then persona 5 came out...
Yeah I was surprised when I got to the ending, I just sat there in shock.
I was unfortunately spoiled by twitter. I didn't read too much, but just enough to not be surprised by the false ending. That said, it was pretty insane how much effort they put into it, with a whole ending credits and song just for it. And you could even consider Reynn to represent you within the game, your loading of the save an attempt to defy destiny just as she attempts to defy hers.
Exactly. That's why I was in shock, I didn't expect such an ending and there were no signs of it not being the end.
thought the final entry isn't the final entry
would've been amazing
Wow good thing he didn't. Everyone expected it. Way to subvert
i'm surprised that Azura's Wrath is not in the list. let's be honest, the story is the biggest clusterfuck when it comes to final bosses. the true (true-ture-true²) final boss isn't even in the main story but in DLC!
Precisely the paywall to actually kill the final boss might have been the reason NOT to include it. Since paywalling a boss is douchest thing to do.
Gonna make a quick prediction before watching the video and say Final Fantasy or a Square Enix game makes it on the list because they do this a lot.
I think that would fit more with 7 worst ideas for DLC
Asura's wrath: This guy is the final boss! Now this thing is the final boss! Haha, we were joking, _this_ thing is the final boss. Actually the real final boss is just a specific _part_ of that thing. LOL, no, THIS thing is the real final boss, and it has like 3 stages!
A game that gets frequently overlooked, Eternal Sonata, has the weirdest final boss switch i have ever seen... You chase Count Walts throughout the entire game, only to have Frederic Chopin (i'm not even kidding...) betray you, and you have to take him down before you can end the game.
Alistair from Ratchet and Clank: A crack in time does the same thing, being your ally throughout the entire game, only to try and kill you in the final 10 minutes of the game!
Yes, I'm constantly trying to bring up Eternal Sonata where I can because it's a very underrated game that I wish we could have seen more from in some form (although I believe there was something about it being on stage?). I also wonder how many people know that you can actually let Chopin kill you in the final battle for an alternate ending that means he wakes up and lives (not canon of course).
skynet091287 the day I bought the game for the Xbox my Xbox died
DRAGON QUEST 8!!!! YAY one of my favorite games of all time. i play it again once a year.
SavageMonkey i wish it was on ps4 as part of ps2 classics but in the meanwhile i playing it on the 3ds
SavageMonkey I literally just finished a playthrough of the 3DS port of it this morning. Effing masterpiece of a jrpg is what that game is.
I am disappointed by what they altered in the 3ds port.
One of my all time fav games too! btw I thought the dragon Lord in the secret area who transforms like 20 times was the real final boss
SavageMonkey I do the same, but with dragon quest seven - should I try 8?
Are we really going to pass over Persona 4? Spend ages trying to get through this lengthy and amazing experience, you finally defeat the giant eyeball/fog machine, bliss washes over you. the "epilogue" plays. You say your goodbyes. But wait! if you play your cards right (pun completely intended) it ends up Eyeball-Magee isn't it! Now go through one final secret dungeon and fight Izanami. Essentially a death Goddess. Have fun!
He's right though. Final Fantasy does the 'final boss' fake out pretty much EVERY time.
Margo's wet nurse is way too easy to be considered a final boss
Yup.
Killed it on first try.
I was way over-leveled for this fight. I think i was level 147.😂😂😂
By the time you get to Margos wet nurse you've dealt with much tougher bosses so I think that helps but yeah MWN and Moon presence are both piss easy comparatively speaking. Gehrman is a decent challenge I found. But thankfully the dlc came through with (in my mind) the two most difficult bosses in the game orphan and Ludwig
What about Persona 4?
Luxra Yeah,I thought game would end after Adachi lol and That Izanami blew me away.......Definitely deserves to be in the list.
Luxra Ehhh P4's true final boss is pretty easy to figure out with all the hints the game gives you.
Not really. Found out about Izanami only cause a friend told me about it, otherwise the game would have ended right after Ameno Sagiri for me.
Which at the end, I was really glad. Ameno is a cool boss fight, and he has some great boss-fight sound-track, but I kinda found a giant eyeball as the final boss, kinda dissapointing, after all ther other crazy boss designs.
She shakes your hand at the start of the game, your controller rumbles, you feel sick shortly after, You have a dream on the very same day where she tells you that you can try and pursue the truth but it's pointless, She only appears when it's rain, in which the midnight channel is usually on, she only talks about the midnight channel, the main culprit starts killing people a day after she shakes your hand, sagiri both times tries to stop you from finding the truth, Shadow Teddie, Hell the very fact that the other two people who got the same power as you have Sagiri's in them, both say the very same thing about the truth and the mystery of the midnight channel's existence not being solved should allude to the fact that Izanami is the mastermind.
Honestly at my first playthrough, I totally forgot that with the handshake and pretty much ignored her the whole time. ^^;
A list of final bosses that aren't actually final bosses.
Persona 5: Hold my coffee
Pokemon red and blue final four. After you win you have to fight the champion thinking that you are the champion now. Oh looky there you have to fight you rival.
Steven Broughton More like any Pokémon game ever made
In red and blue you have to fight 6 people for the final "four".
how about pokemon gold, you beat the final four in your region, defeat your rival, then the professor tells You that the first region opened up. then you have to go through all the first gyms, final four of that region to finally duke it out with red himself
Wade Pulliam That's why it's my favorite pkmn game
Wade Pulliam Best generation ever. Mind was blown when Kanto opened up!
I think the most challenging thing about fighting the Devil was trying to avoid getting one-shot by the sledgehammer he had swinging between his legs in Dante's Inferno.
What about the ultimate fakeout, Medusa in Kid Icarus Uprising? I never expected Hades to stick his badass face out of the credits.
UltimateGeek 121 Um... m8, this channel is all about Playstation...
Scr00bMcDuck Good point... even so, it is a brilliant example of this though.
UltimateGeek 121 But the final boss isn't hades either lmfao. What about chaos kin?
Uh. You fight Chaos Kin earlier than you fight Hades.
xBIGFACEDSHADOWx lol, I really don't remember the story then. Might be time to dust off my 3ds and do a replay.
I've got two as well:
Dishonored: The last half of the game
Borderlands 2: Terramorphous
Screw Terramorphous that took more of my time than the rest of the game
Zane Mingus ehhh terramorph is more like an optional boss hes not part of the mainstory hes just a really hard endgame side quest if that makes sense lol
I beat him with a level 80 on true vault hunter mode so I kinda cheated
Asgore > Omega Flowey from Undertale. Caught me completely off guard.
Most of the time I never have played or plan to play the games you talk about but I love hearing you talk about them so cleverly. You're hilarious. I just moved to England a couple of weeks ago from the States and it'd be great to get a chance to meet you one day.
so that's what the room with the couch looks like....
In shin mehami tensei: nocturne the final dungeon of the game can be entirely skipped if you make the right dialogue choices. also, the bosses that appear in the dungeon change depending on which character you sided with. the ending is different for each character, but the final boss is the same for each of those, with the exception of the "true demon" ending. to even be able to get this ending, you have to agree to the challenge at the start of the game, leading to a total of over 20 extra boss fights not to mention a massive extra dungeon to go through. if you meet all the requirements before getting to the final boss, then once you beat him (a literal god of light and creation), Lucifer appears before you, congratulates you, and then gives you one final challenge: beat him. and he is ridiculously strong. for a jrpg it is one of the hardest fights I've ever seen.
well... Dragon Quest 8 wasn't at the end after beatin' the purple fat guy...
After killing him, an almost 1 Hour ending-sequence starts and at the end of that...
A new secret path opens, where you can meet and fight the TRUE final boss of the game:
A Mighty Dragon with 2 Forms, wich you have to beat ONLY to get the Chance to Beat another Dragon-Boss with 100(!) Forms...
That's what I call an Endgame content :D After you beaten them all and revealed the Story behind the mysterious main character, you now are able to see an alternative ending sequence (after playing the whole game a second time) :3
Square Enix... they are Insane!
Who ever played all that content?
Well.. Me.. Maybe... Or not? o.O Who knows...
Clouds Demise A hundred? No he has 7 or 8 forms. Also he’s a post game boss, and Rhapthorne is the final boss because you fight him last night matter what.
I can't help but think that this video has a greater message or meaning behind it.... None the less I still love it.
Persona 4
Izanami, which you can miss if you don't know how to get to her...
actual even Adachi and Ameno Sagiri themselve can be missed if you don't know how to get to them.
toongrowner1 this is two years old comment but idc!! Actually i can get to them easily it so obvious, but after playing p5R now!! Have fun getting to the real final boss of p5R
Nier:Automata just did the Dragon Quest thing. You beat the final boss on ur first play through only to find that you have to play through a second time to unlock the second half of the game. Oh and that's not all. Once you beat that one you have to play a third time as a different character to truly fight the final boss. Only to find out afterwards that if you want to fight the true final boss. You have to have bought/found all the weapons in the game and have all of them fully upgraded. Then you can fight the true final boss. (Of which is actually optional. The actual ending will have already been achieved before that.)
Obscure 2 anyone? you fight the supposed fial boss and then the CREDITS ROLL and then what you think is post credits cut-scene turns out to be the rest of the game untill you fight the real final boss, kenny
not a lot of people know this game series, you could say it's a bit OBSCURE...
Saleem Aldarf similar to the 3DS game Kid Icarus Uprising. You kill medusa in chapter 9; then credits roll; then hades comes out.
Its been awhile so I don't remember but I'm just sooo happy someone else knows the Obscure games
Anyone who's ever played a game like this will know you never fight "just a man" as the last boss.
And that is one more reason why the original dark souls is a masterpiece and no matter how many remakes or sequels or spiritual successors there are nothing will ever be like it.
How could you not include MGS?
Fighting Liquid after destroying Rex, or even fighting ZEKE to get the after credits ending in Peace Walker
KleX I agree about Pacifica Ocean in Peace Walker, but come on, everyone knew that Liquid would be the final boss in MGS.
rocketcon Yea that was no suprise at all
Anyone remember Dragon's Dogma and it's final bosses? You spend the entire time preparing to kill the dragon, the almighty ruler of the monsters, only to find that such is not the case. You'll return to Gran Soren (the main city) to fight the duke there, afterwards you fall into an infinity looping hole killing dozens of other monsters and collecting weird shards that can revive your character. Once you get twenty of these shards, you fight the real final boss, the previous Dragon Dogma (a character you play as in the tutorial) it's so weird and convoluted that it almost takes out some of the fun of the game
DRAGON QUEST JOURNEY OF THE CURSED KING FRICK YEAH !!!!!ONE OF MY FAVORITE GAMES!!!!
yeah the final boss being rhapthorne that big fat demon
Batman Arkham City: "Lets go for the final fight in Monarch Theater. Joker i'm coming for you!"
*Turns into Clayface
Here is another boss. It goes by the name of Blixer. In JSAB there is a level called Final Boss. Dodge King Blixer’s attacks and you make it up the tower, ready to purify the last mega triangle. Only to have Blixer come from nowhere, blow you away, then impale himself with the last triangle, turning him into Annihilate and later his true final form, Destriod
Persona 4 Golden has about 6 final bosses
Dragon Quests III and IV had decoy final bosses. In III, you're initially told that the big bad is Baramos, who was the target of your father Ortega's fatal final quest, but once you take him out and return home to celebrate, Baramos's boss makes himself known: the Archfiend Zoma. In IV, the ultimate evil is Estark, sealed away ages ago and accidentally unearthed recently, but the true final boss (the silver hair gives it away) is Psaro the Manslayer, who uses the Secret of Evolution to turn into an Estark-like abomination after his beloved Rosaly is murdered.
I remember the first time you fight the Dragon in Dragons Dogma. Beat it and everything seems good. Until you realise you put a whole in the earth and then fight God. Good times
Moon Presence is kind of a weird bossfight though. It has less than half of Gehrman's health, and during the fight, rallying seems to be significantly boosted, making regaining health without using blood vials pretty easy. It's kind of aggressive (though nothing compared to some other bosses), but only two of its attacks are worth noting. The one that prevents you from using healing items, and the global AoE that reduces you to one health. It's the only boss I've beaten without a HUD.
what about P4 theres like 3 final-final bosses
Sir Fantasy Yeah I agree I was thinking about Yamatame
I only know P4 from the anime and even they conveyed that point. I actually bought P5 because of how fun the series made the games look.
Four final bosses but yeah
the game make you think its mitsuo, but you're just halfway throught the game. then it make you think its namatame, but no actually its adachi oh wait now its ameno-sagiri nope its izanami
Phoenix Fox The Mitsuo part is actually pretty smartly executed, as it's an obvious fake final boss if you really think about it, so he can get your guard down if you assume wrong choices down the path are so obvious.
I am so glad Necron made this list. I actually hated fighting him because he felt completely tacked on. Almost like the game had budgeted itself for say 18 bosses or something but they had a little extra moolah and thought to themselves 'hey, lets just spend the rest of the budget on necron for laffs"
moon presence was easy compared to earlier boses
Compared to Orphan of Kos, at least.
After Gerhman, I only had 4 blood vials left... Only needed 3 though 😂
I was hoping he'd have mentioned Omega 2 from Final Fantasy. It's such an OP end-of-the-end game monstrosity that it doesn't even drop LOOT. It just gives you this badge thingy so you can prove to people you actually figured out how to kill it.... Seriously, it has stupid amounts of HP, is immune to or reflects almost everything AND has the ability to force party members to leave your team mid-fight. It takes a lot of skill simply to have any hope of killing the giant mechanical spider
You forgot undertale's
Omega/Photoshop flowey
Donkey Kong Country (1992, SNES) had that already.. bossfight, credits start rolling, "The End?" and then the boss gets back up and the real fight starts :D
boss vid (instant 1'000'000 views)
Rob you have fallen into a proper groove with these lately. Just wanna say great job! I know you have been doing them for years and I am an avid viewer. But the last few weeks have been quality. The flow of the commentary, nostalgic anecdotes, jokes and cut-away gags are fine tuned mate. Maybe it is your new office and set up? Whatever it is, they are good. P.s. Has anyone else ever said, the show reminds me of Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe.
+NORTRON_ZERO Thank you very much for the lovely comment, and thanks for watching :) -Rob
Andrew Ryan and Atlas really fucked me up, I was so sure it was all about to end and then Ryan basically commits suicide and leaves you gobsmacked
My favorite instance of that is Rogue galaxy. Seed totally seemed like final boss material, then he transformed into Beast seed which made it even better, then, the game just keeps going.
Baten Kaitos on the GameCube has a boss in the middle of the end crawl. A real simple boss fortunately.
Magnus Asplund Someone knows that game!:O that game was my childhood. I never beat it(children don't do numbers and planning X3) but I love it to this day.
ForestofCicadas Baten Kaitos is only one of my favourite Rpg's ever! :) I even played through the sequel. I can recommend that you follow the Twitch streamer Baffan. He occasionally do speed runs of Baten Kaitos, both any% and 100%.
i want to put in an honorable mention for the 'actual gamers' out there.
remember in rogue galaxy, where you defeat mother (the end boss) in her own form, and then she turns into a freaking ship, and you have to beat 9 individual bosses with every hero in the game? and then she actually appears as the front of the boat which you have to kill?
you had to start all over if you were at lets say boss nr. 8, and it took almost an hour and a half to get to the end boss. that was an actual pain in the behind.
anyway great video, just wanted to mention that one.
Persona 4
The killer -> Ameno-sagiri -> Izanami
Rob is the only person who love Metal Gear and Dr. Pepper as much as i do, I've found a worthy adversary.
Just gotta know bloodborne is here
Love Boss themed Friday features! This and Weapons are my favorite!!
Who dafuq thought Mergo's Wet Nurse was Bloodborne's final boss?
Literally nobody and the worse part is they didn't even mention the REAL final boss which is Moon Presence......
Peaking Mantis umm yes they did talk about it
Peaking Mantis someone turned the video off too soon
Stephetheon Germhan is easy just use all of your blood vials
So you’re playing as Riku in Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance, you’ve defeated the most powerful form of Ansem yet and cleaned the clock of the teenage version of the series Big Bad (don’t ask, time travel is involved). Sora is free and all that’s left to do is wake him up. But wait, you’ve got to get through Nightmare animated armour first!
Should of had an Onimusha game on this list. I think Dawn if Dreams fit this list perfectly.
I am not sure if they count since they are optional, but DS3's main story leads you to the Soul of Cinder who is considered even by Fromsoftware to be the final boss of the story... but then they added a bunch of optional and much harder bosses, like the Nameless King (the real prize to beat), Sister Friede in the first DCL, and Slave Knight Gael and the monster called Darkeater Midir in the second DLC.
Persona 4. True ending. Nuff said.
Ice Climber Except the true ending is pretty easy to get?
you mean, maxing all social links? without a guide? have fun xD
My example is historical. Rage Racer for PS1. You finish first in all the tracks just to be challenged to finish all of them, but now this time backwards. And you do so, just now to be challenged by a new set of steampunk vehicles that are insanely faster and that you have to acquire and beat the game one more bloody time... Ah, the good all days!
Bioshock?
Would you kindly include this game on the sequel list?
The first one I thought of was in the first Dishonored game, when you kill/apprehend the lord regent and you think everything is all peachy. It was actually satisfying to get poisoned just so I could keep going! Never thought I'd say that.....
You know what would be great? In these spoilery videos (which seems to be all you do anymore) you could put list of the games in video into description, so we could see what to watch and what not.
I know this is a show devoted to PS games only, but for me, the time I beat Ganondorf in Legend of Zelda, only to have him resurrect as Ganon...and me without the sword I'd been using the entire game (the first playthrough, I didn't have the Biggoron Sword)...that was a true terrifying masterpiece.
dragon s dogma so be one be cause after you go through is a scound time you will face your outher self from the first time you played through it
I never finished Nioh(the whole time i played it, i just wished it was more like Dark Souls than it is) but while i was playing, i never once thought Kelly would be the final boss. He just has "villain's right hand man" written all over him.
Dragons Dogma: Dark Arisen. Daimon... Yeah the game doesn't tell you but if your gona grind then you'll realize that Daimon has an Awakening form... But you can always walk away and be proud that you'd beat Daimon. OR just face the beast with a face on his belly and even more resistance than last time and hope you'll kill him. Unless your that one guy in level endless with the explosive arrows... You missed Daimon From Dragons Dogma: Dark Arisen.
Btw Massive Spoiler!
I platinumed Bloodborne Rob :D
love these videos. I always look forward to Friday :)
i realy Hope bloodborne is on this list.
edit: Oh
You can mention “phantasy star 4” on genesis. I was amazed when *spoiler* that’s only half of the game. And map expanded. Same thing for one of the Pokémon on GBC where you beat the whole map then goes back to your home and you see some water which is totally unsuspicious in the start but now you know you can cross it with later catches water mons, then you find this equally sized new east area map and same amount of adventure and those 4 final bosses and legend Pokémon. Oh my god that made my day back there.
There'isnt PERSONA 4/5
This list now can be improved with Hollow Knight (obvious spoilers ahead).
The final boss of the game is THE Hollow Knight, but if you do a lot of optional things by exploring - you can get a charm called "Void's Heart" which will give you access to 2 more endings beside the default one.
One of those endings is to fight a god-like creature called The Radiance that is literally the hardest boss in the vanilla game.
Wow the Japanese really love their fake final bosses huh?
Maelleth this isn't even my final form
They've made it a cliche, still, some of the best ones doesn't do that. For example, FFVII tells who the final boss will be early
yeah, in the instruction manual.
Mog Gles you must've played on easy... Kappa
yeah i thought i was playing on easy at first, i did a new game again on death march but nope, no difference. also, you're using kappa wrong, kid.
Super Ghouls and Ghosts is by far is the #1 for this list. You make it to the end of very hard game, fight the final boss, beat him, and then find out that you can't actually beat him without a certain item. So then you have to start the entire game over, go through it again this time having to find the hidden item along the way, and then beating him a second time. This game will make you throw your gaming console out the window.
FINAL FANTASY XV FLASHBACKS INTENSIFY
Spoiler warnings in order (This is where each video starts, by the way, not where it's spoiled. It's so you can skip over any one of these.):
1:15 - Final Fantasy IX (9)
3:08 - Okami
4:23 - Nioh
5:56 - Ni No Kuni
7:35 - Stikbold!
8:30 - Dragon Quest VIII (8)
10:05 - Bloodborne
Just in case anyone wanted to be extra careful about spoilers for any of these particular titles.
Where is undertale
Omega flowey ISN'T the true boss on true pacifist, azriel is
Recently played Nioh's final bosses ... I was floored when I found out there were more than just Kelly
no persona 4 or 5? p4 has like 3 final boss battles 😂
For me it was Lost Odyssey when Gongora went down like a sack of potatoes, end credits roll, realise there is a cheap DLC and boom now you have the almost invincible Killalon boss.
No persona 4? i'm dissapointed rob
I have one. In FNAF world you battle against purplegeist, later on in the fight he is squashed by the real final boss: chica’s magic rainbow! A ridiculously hard enemy with mini rainbows. You have a timer too, and if you don’t kill her in time, a devistating rainbow cannon blast destroys you!
Persona 5?
I mean, If we're talking about the H--y G---l then it totally is.
JaePeaGee nanomachines son
JaePeaGee HAHAHA, assuming Rob has finished Persona 5.
Also Persona 4.
Persona 4 was worse. Taro Namatame > Adachi > Ameno-sagiri > Izunami
In Dragon's Dogma, Grigori isn't the final boss. He opens the way to the final boss. And even then, after you beat the final final boss, a secret boss shows up that you can challenge who is just as big (if not bigger) than Grigori, but has way more health. Especially online.
Please stop saying Orochi and Susano those ways, it's not the right pronunciations, it's O-ro-chi and Su-san-o
Actually beat the Moon Presence straight after Gehrman with only a couple blood vials left, had to use a special healing item to top up after it's "take you down to 1 HP" attack
DmC: Devil may cry.
Only if you haven't played the Original DMCs.
Yass!!!!!
DmC better than the originals I hope you meant the other way around
Castlevania:Symphony of the Night. The "end battle" is against Richter Belmont who's been possessed by Shade (who you can only see/kill if you bought Opera Glasses from the Librarian) and wear them during the fight to kill Shade and AVOID hitting Richter.
If you kill Shade and save Richter, the castle then flips UPSIDE DOWN and you have to fight your way back to the entrance to escape and battle Dracula himself and 200% the game.
No games make your final boss just a man? Dark Souls 1. Just saying...
Well, there are 'men' and then there's 'Gwyn, Lord of Cinder' -Rob
PlayStation Access Lol Rob, love ya.
A real kicker would have been Metal gear solid 3. You think volgan is the worst but the real final is The Boss, but then it's not even that bad! Because then the real final Boss is Snake! And the struggle is "Don't cry when snake salutes her grave" A fight I fail every single time ( °-°).
How about next friday feature
"7 times the final boss was really yourself"
like a "Holy crap I'm actually the bad guy" scenario.
or maybe "7 times the ending was actually not the ending"
In dragons dogma you defeat the final boss but the game doesn't end and you have to perform a hidden action to actually beat the game.
What about DMC 3 and Remastered DMC; or is it because Vergil is a hybrid he does not count.
EresirThe1st Try fighting him without parrying and with a slow weapon. Yeah, he's tough.
Btw, to everyone commenting, yeah, Gwyn isn't all that hard. Beat him on my bare fist run. And although he's technically a god, he is a god who has burned away all of his power, at the point he's at, you and him are equal (or should be.) so he's more or less just a dude, a badass dude, with godly music, but a dude none the less.
Definitely Persona 4.
The first time I played through the game, I didn't even realize there was a "true" ending because the normal ending route looked really good and climactic as it was. It's satisfying enough to trick most people into believing the game ended when that's not the true ending.
Devil may cry 2, you defeat argosax, which is made of all the bosses you fought previously, but then he becomes the despair embodied. God, I was all happy after defeating argosax, lol.
