Absolutely love how every boss on ur list you go over and explain in detail and then bahamuts is just "holy *shit* " LMAO. It was such an incredible fight
@@davidkunakovsky3155 Why? It's a really good boss fight. This isn't an objective list, you're allowed to disagree, but I don't think you can make comments like that when it's safe to assume you've never fought him before
@@phatyoshi6733 I just don't believe Destiny 2 has a great gameplay design (from the times why I tried it out) by itself, so it's hard to believe the boss fight can be enjoyable too.
I’m blown away that you actually included Absolute Radiance, so many people forget just how insane she actually is in the game. I do fear that it is one of those bosses that you have to know the lore of the whole game to truly appreciate though.
NKG and Pure Vessel might be more fun mechanically but Radiance just has peak presentation, is more unique than the other bosses and has a whopping five phases. A real lesson in how to design a perfect final boss.
It’s a crazy fight, it has everything a boss needs to be a boss, except for the fact that it’s the worst boss in the game, it’s not fun at all, unfair, and completely RNG based, I’ve beaten absrad on radiant multiple times as well as all bosses and P5 and ABSRAD IS *THE WORST BOSS IN THE GAME*, when a boss is unfair or luck based, it’s not even dark souls bosses anymore, it’s just plain bad
Radiance is hard, sure, but a mid boss. In just HK alone these are bosses I consider to be much better: mantis lords, sisters of battle, nkg, tpg, watcher knights, dung defender, white defender, soul master, traitor lord, thk, pure vessel, broken vessel/lost kin, nosk, etc. The most important part of a boss fight is how fun it is. The radiance fight is iconic and its an insane moment to fight it for the first time, but it feels way too much like an rng rhythm game to be a fun boss fight.
All the Lord about it is cool and all, but I died to glitches in that right was way too many times to say it is a top ten fight, especially with nkg and pv
@@sparchamp2 I second this, NKG and PV feel fair and fun, Absrad is the most bullshit RNG hell in the entire game, save for Collector. Seriously, fighting absrad with restrictions like the 4 bindings is some of the most shit and boring stuff in the game, slap on the fact she's the last boss in P5 and her difficulty being decided completely by how good or abhorrent the RNG is really ruins this fight, especially when upwards of 3 HOURS OF TIME SPENT ARE POTENTIALLY GETTING WASTED
IMO there are no games that do bosses like Monster Hunter. It’s practically a boss rush game with only boss level enemies and ALMOST EVERY ONE IS PERFECT

Great list, nice to see Furi - especially The Edge - getting a shout-out! Here is my list following the same criteria: 1. Nightmare King Grimm - Hollow Knight 2. Nameless King - Dark Souls 3 (I just loved the lore of Gwyn's banished son since DS1) 3. Extreme Measures [Redacted] - Hades 4. Ludwig, the Accursed - Bloodborne 5. The Edge - Furi 6.

Fatalis is cool because he’s literally just a normal dragon in a normal castle, meaning all those specially designed cool looking elder dragons and monsters aren’t shit when compared to something classic.
Nope, it's a lazy design. A final boss should obviously look more badass and creative than the previous bosses. Being generic is underwhelming, there is nothing cool about being generic. The whole point of dragons is to be a frightening fantastical monstrosity, it's hardly fantastical if it's exactly like ones you've already seen again and again in thousands of fantasy games.
@@Vaquix000you’re welcome to your own opinion but I think you might have missed the point in Fatalis. Yes it’s a Generic dragon, that’s the point. it’s a dragon that can melt thick, metal doors within seconds with fire hotter than the surface of the sun. It’s hatred for humanity so great it mocks us by melting its victims to its skin in a way not to dissimilar to what hunters do to their hunts. But yes, in the end of the day it’s just a generic dragon, but that he needs to be, a pure and simple but difficult fight as an ultimate test of skill.
Calling something done so intentionally lazy already disregards your argument completely. Every MH game has those epic fantastical elements in spades for every creature + a particularly epic rival monster that you fight at start and end + a secret monster that's the cause of everything and looks the most imposing/fantastical. Fatalis by proxy is supposed to be the embodyment of the classical literal dragon, which just like in real life in MH is a being of pure fantasy. It breaths the hottest fire, its scales the hardest material, and its itellegence enough to explicitly show emotion and intent. It's the epitomy of the title of a real dragon and that "simplicity" in design outright is what makes it stand out. Every other wyvern or creature in MH is made to feel like a natural creature thats special abilities and defenses are gifted by their environment, even other elder dragons. Fatalis is a creature that doesn't belong anywhere and is simply made to built to be the perfect weapon against humanity.
man seeing rhulk on here was more rewarding than spending five hours learning the raid getting kicked and finally beating him with the most random set of people
I just love how Fatalis is literally the devs challenging the new players like *"This one made the OG suffer, now you get to experience it."* as well as telling the old players *"Remember suffering from this one? Now you get to do it in HD."*
"Remember the one fight you guys hated because of his janky skeleton and one-shots? Well, we gave him different one-shots and a fresh skeleton, but removed the jankiness so you can relearn the fight and have fun doing it! Not that you have a choice, since the best gear in the game is locked behind it. I hope you don't mind listening to two of the best themes in the series on repeat, since you and Fatty will be spending *a lot* of time together."
What a refreshing take on a top 10 boss list! There are some expected ones, but some you've never heard of. That makes for a very personalized and very unique list. Well done!
Anyone including Red on a best bosses of all time list automatically gets my respect. The fact that my mans had a top 3 of Radiance, Ludwig and Fatalis? You earned a lifetime viewer my guy. I played all three of Bloodborne, Hollow Knight and Monster Hunter world for the first time in the last 2-3 years and all three catapulted themselves into my top 10 favourite games ever. Good shit
Absolutely loved that you included raven beak in here. Don’t see too many people talk about Metroid dread let alone the final boss fight but it’s one of my absolute favorites and I always think about it when discussing challenging or satisfying fights
@@aurelieneichelberger8025this is true man, Vergil also has everything in the criteria. The story, the BUILD UP, the fight itself, the difficulty, AND THE MUSIC.
but Iceborne Fatalis apparently is not a good choice, it has many moveset design flaws that makes it not a good fight compared to other monsters throughout the series.
I think it’s perfect. It’s meant to catch you off guard, deal extreme damage, and put FEAR into your very soul while fighting it. As the intro to Iceborne Fatalis said, you are fighting HISTORY, you should fear EXACTLY what you’re up against. It’s the perfect Spectacle AND hunt alike. Considering how SIMPLE the design it too, it just perfects the entire title of “god of all monsters”. Making monsters like Lao Shan Lung and ALATREON flee just makes it the perfect godboss in any game
I am glad to see Raven Beak here, he is probably my favourite overall boss fight I have done (as much as I love Souls and Monster Hunter). Something I judge boss fights on is how well they teach the player how to accomplish them. Raven Beak took me a lot of tries, but once I had beaten a phase, I never lost to that phase again. I always did equal or better than my last attempt, which I put down to excellent game design.
It’s always tough making a list like this (especially drawing from literally all video games out there), but you picked some absolute bangers here!! And some I never heard of before that I need to check out now! 👏🏼
As somebody who has only played Sekiro from this list: really cool list!! You do such a great job of highlighting what makes the fights good and I loved the diversity
Holy shit dude I have never agreed more with a top ten list on UA-cam in a LONG time, Fatalis being number 1 genuinely got me tweaking as that was one of my greatest gaming achievements (at least before they made the time limit 30 minutes lol) good work bro
100% with you on Fatalis! Been gaming since the NES era and that boss fight is the best I have ever fought! When that 'Proof Of A Hero OST' Comes on! LFG!!!
I just love the Fatalis fight. The nostalgia that kicks in near the end of the fight when the old Monster Hunter theme drops was insane for me. Finally being able to beat that monster I wasn’t capable of defeating as a child was incredibly satisfying. Definitely Number 1 for me
Fatalis is a harder and better boss than anything in souls games but from soft fan boys are too scared to play monster hunter. (I also love souls games but mhw is peak)
@@thegoodeboy2016 Hmm While I personaly agree Its matter of taste. Fights like Ludwik Geal are verry uniqe. And Midir/ Bayle are comparable to MH in my opinion.
One of the most enjoyable vids ive watched in recent times, idk if its cus of the relatability but mann if u continue this u will make a career for, keep it up gang
Yes monster hunter fatalis was the first real boss I needed to beat and when me and my team kept learning his pattern every time we died and when he finally killed him, I never yelled that loud in victory in my life. My monster hunter my favourite series of all time.
UA-cam Algorithm W.. what a great list. Particularly love the Furi call out, one of my all time favorite games, absolute shame how unknown it still is. I would have found a way to sneak Gael on here, but other than that I can’t complain :) well done! Edit - I also love the fact you included a D2 boss, they’re almost always overlooked on lists like this. Rhulk was great, if you ever return to the game the Witness is a great final boss as well
I love how you pointed the fact that the monsters in monster have a role in the their world. I always loved that there is a reson of why that monster exist or why that monster can use certain elements, (an example is of a rathalos shooting fireballs which are just balls of mucus ignited by a flame sack). Then there's the Fatalis, it dosen't make sense, he's an exepction in the rules(Just like the other black dragons and other elden dragons). God i love this game. (Also sorry for any errors, english is not my first language.)
Bro seeing fatalis in slot one was the most epic respect. To me it probably the most epic and hardest boss I've ever faced in any game. From soft makes some nasty stuff but there's almost always some build or tech that cab trivialize the fight or make it ez. Fatalis was built different.
I would consider my self a souls fanboy so do u advise me to play monter hunter and if so then is it fun with the boys as fromsoft games aren't really made for co up@@thegoodeboy2016
Well that’s not really true, I beat Fatalis with 4 pieces of his gear from plunderblade and his weapon fully augmented and made a semi meta set, I beat him right after I made that set after having tried like 20 times before I made the set so I feel like the part where you say other games have sets or builds that trivialize the fights and make them easy also kinda applies to monster hunter
what i love about rhulk is that the entire time during his boss battle, hes just fucking around and not taking it seriously until the very final stand where he goes "oop they can actually kill me" and starts suffocating the light out of every guardian like he couldnt do it before. Also love the fact that he uses the corpse of Xita, the literal mother of the worm gods (bascially a group of the most powerful individuals in the known universe of destiny), as a glorified cup holder for the Upended
Fatalis’s difficulty also is amplified by the endurance test that it can be, the fight takes consistently over 10 minutes and typically at least 20, all to just lose and restart. If there wasn’t item restocks it genuinely would be one of the hardest bosses of all time. Also Proof of a Hero goes unbelievable hard entering the final stretch of the fight 🔥
Nice list, bro! One recent game that I played has an amazing boss fight... it's Eigong from nine sols. It checks almost all the criteria that you mentioned in the beginning. You should check nine sols, maybe it will change your list a little bit!
Loved seeing representation from pokemon and ff16. Ludwig would make the top spot on most lists, but thank goodness you've played monster hunter world. Fatalis is undoubtedly the best boss of all time and the music change after the dragonator may be one of the best feeling moments in gaming history.
Also things to add on the fatalis boss fight they literally made the bossfight lore accurate it's like you're really fighting the legend itself thats what made it so special it lived up to the lore it was based upon never seen any game captured the lore perfectly like they did to fatalis it couldn't get any better than that
I was so scared that there wouldn’t be a monster hunter entry here and then I saw Fatalis and knew this guy was objectively right. Fatalis is freaking wonderful, especially to solo
One of my favourite bosses of all time is Lord Shimura from Ghost of Tsushima. The story behind it was perfect, the arena at your childhood sparring circle in the sunset was beautiful, music was amazing and the choice that you get at the end was the most tense moment in the whole game. Wasn't too flashy but just one of my personal all time favourites.
14:00 beating markoth hitless but not absolute radiance is weird. it took me several tries to beat hitless radiance but in the end i managed to do it 2 or 3 times, but markoth? that dude is too random to beat him hitless, i tried once with an hp mod because i was too frustrated and wanted to see his healthbar, i was killed while he was one hit away from dying and you can't imagine my despair in that moment
hell yeah, Raven Beak Almost 3 years later and this boss is still just so damn cool. The buildup is enormous and then the fight itself is this energetic and imposing slugfest.
Monster Hunter and Hollow Knight and Pokemon all making this list confirmed im going to enjoy this channel very much. Well thought out and very entertaining video. Loved this. :)
One of my favorite things about Ludwig is... the choice. I fought Ludwig absolutely hooked on Bloodborne's lore and world, and just happened to be wearing the black church set while fighting him, it was absolutely heartbreaking to make a choice between telling his nearly dead, beastly form the bitter truth, or giving him a sweet lie in his final moments, I ended up not doing anything out of woe, and came back to see that Simon had put Ludwig out of his misery. On my next playthrough I made sure to tell Ludwig the lie, and let him die believing his church hunters were the honorable Spartans he had hoped they'd be. Also my list is as follows: 10. Al Mualim 9. Kessler 8. Hoyt 7. Messmer 6. Radagon 5. Logarius 4. totk Ganon 3. Gwyn 2.Senator Armstrong 1. Ludwig
I think jetstream Sam should be on here because his fight is way diffrent from any other in the game just 2 men with sword in a desert with a sunset no BS.

Anyone including Red on a best bosses of all time list automatically gets my respect. The fact that my mans had a top 3 of Radiance, Ludwig and Fatalis? You earned a lifetime viewer my guy. I played all three of Bloodborne, Hollow Knight and Monster Hunter world for the first time in the last 2-3 years and all three catapulted themselves into my top 10 favourite games ever. Good shit
Absolutely loved that you included raven beak in here. Don’t see too many people talk about Metroid dread let alone the final boss fight but it’s one of my absolute favorites and I always think about it when discussing challenging or satisfying fights
I totally agree, He is my favorite boss ever.
Fantastic list! Love the ravenbeak shout out. Now I'm gonna go replay all of these 😂
Very immaculate list my brother. I'm glad people give Fatalis the recognition he deserves.
Vergil should be on this list
Bro its HIS list
@@kuzushimatt6801It says top 10 Bosses of all time and Not my top 10 bosses
There are a Lot of Bosses i would have liked to See too For example sephiroth from ff7 Rebirth or sans from undertale but It is what It is
@@kuzushimatt6801 i say this bécasse vergil is on the thumbnail and not in the top 10
@@aurelieneichelberger8025this is true man, Vergil also has everything in the criteria. The story, the BUILD UP, the fight itself, the difficulty, AND THE MUSIC.
MONSTER HUNTER MENTIONED 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥 LIST IS VALID ASF
FR ON GOG(mazios)
but Iceborne Fatalis apparently is not a good choice, it has many moveset design flaws that makes it not a good fight compared to other monsters throughout the series.
I think it’s perfect. It’s meant to catch you off guard, deal extreme damage, and put FEAR into your very soul while fighting it. As the intro to Iceborne Fatalis said, you are fighting HISTORY, you should fear EXACTLY what you’re up against. It’s the perfect Spectacle AND hunt alike. Considering how SIMPLE the design it too, it just perfects the entire title of “god of all monsters”. Making monsters like Lao Shan Lung and ALATREON flee just makes it the perfect godboss in any game
I am glad to see Raven Beak here, he is probably my favourite overall boss fight I have done (as much as I love Souls and Monster Hunter). Something I judge boss fights on is how well they teach the player how to accomplish them. Raven Beak took me a lot of tries, but once I had beaten a phase, I never lost to that phase again. I always did equal or better than my last attempt, which I put down to excellent game design.
It’s always tough making a list like this (especially drawing from literally all video games out there), but you picked some absolute bangers here!! And some I never heard of before that I need to check out now! 👏🏼
As somebody who has only played Sekiro from this list: really cool list!! You do such a great job of highlighting what makes the fights good and I loved the diversity
If fatalis isn’t on a boss list I automatically don’t care. This list is great. Fatalis is greatest boss of all time.
Fatalis isnt even the best monster hunter fight
@@KRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR which one is?
Took me and my friend so many hours but it was so fun
nah Isshin is. MH is ass
@@umutozer9667white fatalis
Holy shit dude I have never agreed more with a top ten list on UA-cam in a LONG time, Fatalis being number 1 genuinely got me tweaking as that was one of my greatest gaming achievements (at least before they made the time limit 30 minutes lol)
good work bro
100% with you on Fatalis! Been gaming since the NES era and that boss fight is the best I have ever fought!
When that 'Proof Of A Hero OST' Comes on!
LFG!!!
14:07 silk song will be released in 9998
Dude. Easy new sub. So many clever little asides and so much personality. More please.
I just love the Fatalis fight. The nostalgia that kicks in near the end of the fight when the old Monster Hunter theme drops was insane for me. Finally being able to beat that monster I wasn’t capable of defeating as a child was incredibly satisfying. Definitely Number 1 for me
I can’t believe no one else mentioned proof of a hero playing
Dropping a like just for the Furi appreciation. Good video bro, keep it up
Nice video, finally I find video where is Fatalis!
Fatalis is a harder and better boss than anything in souls games but from soft fan boys are too scared to play monster hunter. (I also love souls games but mhw is peak)
@@thegoodeboy2016 Hmm While I personaly agree Its matter of taste. Fights like Ludwik Geal are verry uniqe. And Midir/ Bayle are comparable to MH in my opinion.
@@thegoodeboy2016 played both of the series its just a matter of personal opinion and you sound like a dickhead
@jeronym894 Bayle did give me monster hunter vibes, until I 3 shot him with ancient dragons lightning strike 😩
Great Video! Subscribed fs
One of the most enjoyable vids ive watched in recent times, idk if its cus of the relatability but mann if u continue this u will make a career for, keep it up gang
A Hollow Knight AND Monster Hunter fan? You just earned a subscriber.
Yes monster hunter fatalis was the first real boss I needed to beat and when me and my team kept learning his pattern every time we died and when he finally killed him, I never yelled that loud in victory in my life. My monster hunter my favourite series of all time.
UA-cam Algorithm W.. what a great list. Particularly love the Furi call out, one of my all time favorite games, absolute shame how unknown it still is. I would have found a way to sneak Gael on here, but other than that I can’t complain :) well done!
Edit - I also love the fact you included a D2 boss, they’re almost always overlooked on lists like this. Rhulk was great, if you ever return to the game the Witness is a great final boss as well
I'm glad you put Radiant in the video :)
I spent two years hyping up Fatalis and beating him was probably the most rewarding thing I’ve ever done🥹
Sephiroth on FF Rebirth is simply breath taking. I wasnt believing in my eyes during that fight. Unbelievable.
I think Remake is wayyy better, just a pure human form fight and the nostalgia. Rebirth is weird with Zack and all sh*ts going on.
the one bad thing about that boss for me was the timed death on last phase where it's just cloud and aerith
I love how you pointed the fact that the monsters in monster have a role in the their world. I always loved that there is a reson of why that monster exist or why that monster can use certain elements, (an example is of a rathalos shooting fireballs which are just balls of mucus ignited by a flame sack). Then there's the Fatalis, it dosen't make sense, he's an exepction in the rules(Just like the other black dragons and other elden dragons). God i love this game.
(Also sorry for any errors, english is not my first language.)
10:58 as soon as I saw Wolf I knew who it was absolute, amazing boss fights and amazing how well you made this video.
Bro keep pushing content... You are a king
No recuerdo la ultima vez que vi un video tan bueno en UA-cam, gran trabajo
Bro seeing fatalis in slot one was the most epic respect. To me it probably the most epic and hardest boss I've ever faced in any game. From soft makes some nasty stuff but there's almost always some build or tech that cab trivialize the fight or make it ez. Fatalis was built different.
Exactly. Fatalis is a harder and more fair fight than anything in souls but souls fan boys are scared of monster hunter. (I do also love souls games)
I would consider my self a souls fanboy so do u advise me to play monter hunter and if so then is it fun with the boys as fromsoft games aren't really made for co up@@thegoodeboy2016
@@thegoodeboy2016 ah that explains why a bloodborne master speedrunner was FUCKING FILTERED BY A LOW RANK KHEZU IN RISE
@@zerozone5848 They are two completely different games. Calm down.
Well that’s not really true, I beat Fatalis with 4 pieces of his gear from plunderblade and his weapon fully augmented and made a semi meta set, I beat him right after I made that set after having tried like 20 times before I made the set so I feel like the part where you say other games have sets or builds that trivialize the fights and make them easy also kinda applies to monster hunter
what i love about rhulk is that the entire time during his boss battle, hes just fucking around and not taking it seriously until the very final stand where he goes "oop they can actually kill me" and starts suffocating the light out of every guardian like he couldnt do it before.
Also love the fact that he uses the corpse of Xita, the literal mother of the worm gods (bascially a group of the most powerful individuals in the known universe of destiny), as a glorified cup holder for the Upended
Finally someone said Fatalis is the best FINAL BOSS FIGHT🗣🔥🔥
Fatalis’s difficulty also is amplified by the endurance test that it can be, the fight takes consistently over 10 minutes and typically at least 20, all to just lose and restart. If there wasn’t item restocks it genuinely would be one of the hardest bosses of all time.
Also Proof of a Hero goes unbelievable hard entering the final stretch of the fight 🔥
Nice list, bro! One recent game that I played has an amazing boss fight... it's Eigong from nine sols. It checks almost all the criteria that you mentioned in the beginning. You should check nine sols, maybe it will change your list a little bit!
Hollow knight’s grim troupe bossfight was actually amazing, it’s so hard but when you finally get a feel for it it’s so cool
hollow knight peak
Loved seeing representation from pokemon and ff16. Ludwig would make the top spot on most lists, but thank goodness you've played monster hunter world. Fatalis is undoubtedly the best boss of all time and the music change after the dragonator may be one of the best feeling moments in gaming history.
I know this isn’t as good as these but Mithrix from Risk of Rain 2 gives me life, and his music is perfect
GUP
If he didn't take my Dio's he would be higher
@@speedydevil Atleast he didnt take your tesla lol
I liked the video as soon as I saw the Edge from Furi. You have a good taste. Congrats
Few weird picks but your #2 and #1 align with mine perfectly. Nice video!
Also things to add on the fatalis boss fight they literally made the bossfight lore accurate it's like you're really fighting the legend itself thats what made it so special it lived up to the lore it was based upon never seen any game captured the lore perfectly like they did to fatalis it couldn't get any better than that
As a fromsoft fan no Slave Knight Gael is criminal but respect for Ludwig and Geni
Overrated
He decided to put only one soulsborne boss on the list so he chose Ludwig
@@Mohgenstein he is definately not overrated its the most fun boss i have ever fought
@@aganbraganca4156 he’s overrated . Twin Princes are better.
I prefer Isshin sword Saint over genichiro.
When I first defeated Alatreon and Fatalis solo, I Cried so hard my neighbours thought I was mourning : )
actually goated tier list, keep it up king
this video was entertaining af. love your sense of humor
The attack at 18:03 may have single handedly convinced me to play monster hunter
I was so scared that there wouldn’t be a monster hunter entry here and then I saw Fatalis and knew this guy was objectively right. Fatalis is freaking wonderful, especially to solo
One of my favourite bosses of all time is Lord Shimura from Ghost of Tsushima.
The story behind it was perfect, the arena at your childhood sparring circle in the sunset was beautiful, music was amazing and the choice that you get at the end was the most tense moment in the whole game.
Wasn't too flashy but just one of my personal all time favourites.
Sorry right after that cutscene for Rhulk played I was reminded that I'm going to die someday and I'm having a mini panic attack.
So glad to see rhulk on here. I did this raid day one and finshed day 2. That fight was crazy. Havent played destiny in forevet but was a crazy tumet
I’d love to see where Bayle the Dread lies in a boss ranking
Incredible boss.
finally fatalis is getting the love it deserves
2:05 i am on the toalet and it IS the mose epic moment of my life
Same here. It made my shit epic af
Damn right
SAME
14:00 beating markoth hitless but not absolute radiance is weird. it took me several tries to beat hitless radiance but in the end i managed to do it 2 or 3 times, but markoth? that dude is too random to beat him hitless, i tried once with an hp mod because i was too frustrated and wanted to see his healthbar, i was killed while he was one hit away from dying and you can't imagine my despair in that moment
Please answer this question. Who is this huge white and purple boss, as it looks really cool and I wanna play that game? 0:05
hell yeah, Raven Beak
Almost 3 years later and this boss is still just so damn cool. The buildup is enormous and then the fight itself is this energetic and imposing slugfest.
Monster Hunter and Hollow Knight and Pokemon all making this list confirmed im going to enjoy this channel very much. Well thought out and very entertaining video. Loved this. :)
Fatalis is also my favorite boss from any game w video
Bro you are underrated.. Love you videos..
HOW TF do you only have 5k subs.
This was fantastic. Even if I only played 2 games out of the list, I loved it.
New Sub!
14:20 bruh, the absolute SHADE at DS2 by having it be so small compared to all the rest
15:40 FATALIS LET'S GO MONSTER HUNTER FOR THE W
fatalis music is just so goodamn good
You should play remnant 2. It might influence some changes on your list : )
This is such a brave and respectable list. I love it. (Also would have loved to see final form Xemnas from KH2 on here)
One of my favorite things about Ludwig is... the choice. I fought Ludwig absolutely hooked on Bloodborne's lore and world, and just happened to be wearing the black church set while fighting him, it was absolutely heartbreaking to make a choice between telling his nearly dead, beastly form the bitter truth, or giving him a sweet lie in his final moments, I ended up not doing anything out of woe, and came back to see that Simon had put Ludwig out of his misery. On my next playthrough I made sure to tell Ludwig the lie, and let him die believing his church hunters were the honorable Spartans he had hoped they'd be.
Also my list is as follows:
10. Al Mualim
9. Kessler
8. Hoyt
7. Messmer
6. Radagon
5. Logarius
4. totk Ganon
3. Gwyn
2.Senator Armstrong
1. Ludwig
I think jetstream Sam should be on here because his fight is way diffrent from any other in the game just 2 men with sword in a desert with a sunset no BS.
This is honestly such a creative and unique list. I really respect this. Also the timing on the shadow of the colossus shit killed me. Respect for d2
good vid! I would personally have mother brain from super metroid here but raven beak is good too
Also yami from okami is great as well
Amazing list man, really enjoyed the video
