    I got one final boss worse then that, Fable 2 the villain that kills your sister, your dog, off hand mentions he killed your wife(s) and children, and tried to kill you...and there is no fight with him, you can shoot him once and he dies or you can let him monologue and the asshole "hero" on you team shoots him instead, you then are given a choice of either resurrecting everyone who died building the tower, resurrecting all of your loved ones including your dog, or a mountain of money. Such a let down.

    • @acborgia1344
      @acborgia1344 7 років тому +1

      Pretty disappointed with Fable 2 end too, in the end the most difficult thing to kill in the game was the golems, also the final choice is a bit of a trap as getting a mountain of money yourself isn't that hard, and anyway there is absolutely no content once you've finished the game (like some quests that appear for example)
      Well the game was awesome anyway

    • @DigitalBlizzNX
      @DigitalBlizzNX 7 років тому

      I wouldn't really tell Lucian the final boss given the tower shard before the chain of cutscenes at the end of the game is the final boss to me and Lucian is just the main villain... who dies in a cutscene. I'm not saying it's good but just because someone is the main villain doesn't mean they'll be the final boss every time. Granted him dying from one attack or the other guy killing him still sucks pretty massively from a story-telling standpoint given any other enemy in the game that's human takes multiple hits even with the best stats and gear. But I still wouldn't bother to call him the final boss of Fable 2.

      So I've heard. Course, the closest I've played to a Tekken / Soul Calibur fighting game is Bloody Roar: Primal Fury, which...ah...the final boss of its story mode is ABSOLUTELY like this. You NEED to know the game's mechanics in its entirety to even stand a CHANCE against him, which, given Bloody Roar's admittedly somewhat clunky control scheme, makes it WAY harder than it should be. I'll just say it like it is: after this boss fight, I WISH THAT ALL PHOENIXES GO EXTINCT!! Also, why the flying fuck is the "Normal" beast transformation on this scrawny anime fuccboi look like an Emperor Penguin, but then suddenly "Hyper" beast mode turns him in to a phoenix? I'd say that Uranus is technically worse overall, but the difference is that Uranus is an EXTRA boss fought in a separate (easily-cheesed by ringing fools out with Xion, the Half-beast...seriously, it's hilarious how broken his uppercut kick move is! XD) mode! And yeah, with her, she turns in to a giant chimera monstrosity in "Normal" beast mode, but her "Hyper" beast? She just goes hunchback like she's pretending to be a scurreh monster lady...whilst in HUMAN form! I think the devs of this game got it backwards or something! XD

    Looks like a common trend for you are boss fights that are too easy. For me it's the polar opposites. I don't like boss fights that are too hard, particularly if there's a major difficulty spike between the final boss and the 2nd to last one. Best example I can think of is Grandia III. This game has it share of tough bosses, but due to the last boss being SO HARD that I had to grind like crazy (it's a JRPG) to maximum in order to have a decent chance of beating him. Only played this game 3 times. First time I was at lvl 60 and it was by pure luck I beat him. 2nd time I was at lvl 75 (or around it) and still won by luck. So I decided to max out all of my characters prior to entering the "point of no return" part of the RPG (the game had an open world concept, but after a certain boss battle it becomes completely linear). So needless to say all of the bosses I went up against were cakewalks. Oh, it took me 3 months to get to area before the 'point of no return'. Well because of how the leveling up process works, it took me another 3 MONTHS to get from level 75 to 99. Oh, the final boss was still challenging, but at least it won by skill and not luck.

    They really REALLY missed an opportunity to use Necalli as the final boss for SFV. They just brushed him off for Bison. I mean think about it. An entity that only appears when the world is in chaos and powerful fighters appear that he wishes to devour. How is that not Final Boss material?!

    • @Underworlder5
      @Underworlder5 7 років тому +5

      imagine: when nash drains bison, he gets so weak that necalli manages to ambush and devour him. now you have to fight a psycho-power imbued necalli. it seems like he only serves as a force that needs to be avoided or overcome and is never mentioned again once that happens

    • @TrixTrix228
      @TrixTrix228 7 років тому +3

      His prologue even sets him up for this big disaster too. But nope! Dhalsim just tells him to fuck off after failing to eat Ryu and melts away. The world is still in danger and the fighters are all gathering in one place! That's the perfect time to get in on that!

    • @Underworlder5
      @Underworlder5 7 років тому +2

      he has the same problem as baraka in mortal kombat: if he wins, people die, so he is not allowed to win. he should have devoured bison, bested everyone in combat and barely get beaten by ryu who just mastered the power of nothingness under pressure. also according to the akuma prologue, you are not a goner even if you get devoured by necalli, as he just bursts out of him

    • @TrixTrix228
      @TrixTrix228 7 років тому +1

      Interestingly enough they let you play as Bison and let you beat Chun-li at some point in the story. I was really disappointed when I found I was playing him instead of Necalli later on. I even thought "Oh maybe it's one of those scripted fights where I'm supposed to lose." but no I'm supposed to beat him and he melts away.

    • @Underworlder5
      @Underworlder5 7 років тому +1

      i just wish they did more to make him appear as a threat. his most threatening moment was when everyone had to flee because he was on their tail, but otherwise he is just... there. basing off what you said, imagine if we could play as him where he beat someone like rashid or ken, but another person manages to save them at the last second. could even double as a heroic sacrifice if capcom is bold enough

      I honestly think people overstate this choice on any worst boss list. It wasn't great, but the other boss battles in the game leading up to it, aside from the Ivy battle (which was at least a bit different), weren't great either. It was the first game in the series and obviously boss battles wasn't something they were concentrating on very much.

    That Crash 2 boss fight was like an in between stage in Earth Worm Jim.
    I'd add the final form of "Sir Sweet" to the list from Prinny Can I Really be the Hero?! It's literally just an endurance test to see how fast you can rapidly attack with the Prinny while dodging attacks. It wouldn't be so bad if he wasn't such a damage sponge forcing you to press the attack button hundreds if not thousands of times over the course of the boss fight. It becomes literally painful causing cramps, carpal tunnel, and blisters. It's very very painful and probably not good for your hand, and it's probably also not good for your PSP. It's a boss fight for a true masochist...

    My least favorite Final Boss as of what I can currently think of would have to be Corrupt Takumi from FE Conquest. Cramped level design with infinitely spawning enemies? Check. Having to position all your troops every few turns to avoid a bullshit shockwave skill? Could have worked if it was less frequent but check. Takumi having an enemy only skill that gives him AWAKENING STYLE SUPPORT IN FATES?! FUCKING CHECK! All that on top of him having a range of 1-3 tiles & previously mentioned respawning minions being able to 2 shot most of my well leveled party was not fun. I should mention I used the DLC grinding map quite a few times in Conquest & those enemies were still that strong comparatively. Fuck whoever "balanced" that campaign.

    • @MrSentinel07
      @MrSentinel07 7 років тому +8

      I honestly liked that map. It was honestly the only final boss in Fates to actually require some strategy. Blight Dragon in Birthright is pathetically easy and can be beaten in like a couple turns, and Anankos is all spectacle and no bite.

    4: If that music in the background was that boss's music, than yeah, that was a pathetic excuse for music.
    3: Come on, at least make the FINAL BOSS loseable. Even Wario Land 3, a game where you CAN'T DIE, had a final boss that you could lose against, albeit one with little consequence if you do lose.
    2: ANOTHER final boss that can't kill you?! Come on!

    I thought Ardyn was a great final boss. I just wish we couldnt use items against him, it would make the focus on the fight that much more important. Phase 1 is great, phase 2 is good (of course you can spam ranged and win easily, but then you miss out on an awesome DBZ like fight) but phase 3 was lame. Like you said, no impact to any of the blows, and Ardyn can chain stagger you the whole fight (and you can do that to him as well).

    Honestly, when it comes to SF5, either Nash or Chun Li should have defeated him, and even if we go with Chun Li, Nash's sacrifice still should have done SOMETHING. Like, I don't know, make Bison comlpetely unstoppable, and have Nash's sacrifice get him down to a level where Chun Li can defeat him?

      Well understand that the idea of a "final boss" is mechanically just the ultimate test in a video game. A final level with no final boss can work, but considering everyone would be expecting one, it would just be a let down.

  • @Impalingthorn
    @Impalingthorn 7 років тому +4

    Jecht is the real Final Boss of FFX.
    Yu Yevon is literally just there as a symbolic plot point for the purpose of showing how legitimately pathetic the entity everyone in Spira worshiped actually was. The entire game as a whole is a deconstruction of a defeatist culture revolving around a heinous "god", and the slaying of Yu Yevon was simply supposed to be part of that deconstruction.
    It's not the final boss. You can't even die during it, you get auto-phoenixed even when people fall.
    Jecht, in terms of both difficulty and as a conclusion to Tidus's relationship with his father that'd been talked about for the entire game, is the unofficial final boss.

    • @TheWolfgangGrimmer
      @TheWolfgangGrimmer 5 років тому

      Difficulty my ass. I raked the Final Aeon without even trying despite the fact that I basically never level grind ever. And for a pure story device, those 2nd and 3rd phases sure last long, not to mention Yevon can be tricky to figure out.

    • @faburos9012
      @faburos9012 5 років тому

      ^Final Aeon was easy even without level grinding. Have Tidus cast Hastega, Yuna cast protect on every character and Auron do a Zombie Strike on the Final Aeon. If the Final Aeon's overdrive gauge becomes full, just have three characters defend and ready for Triumphant Grasp or Ultimate Jecht Shot.

  • @cartooncritic7045
    @cartooncritic7045 7 років тому +6

    You know, the Kingdom Hearts series is normally pretty consistent with good final bosses. Even the weaker games like Chain of Memories, 358/2 Days, and coded have decent final bosses at worst.
    That said, Dream Drop Distance really dropped the ball there. In addition to the baffling mechanic of unlocking abilities through what basically amounts to NintenDogs and the generally sub-par boss design in general throughout that game, the last world's bosses are nothing short of awful. However, the cherry on top of the mountain of mediocrity comes from Young Xehanort.
    Do you remember his secret boss fight in Birth By Sleep? Good, because he largely pulls several of the same tricks, only made beatable due to being a required fight. He's quick, hits hard, teleports frequently, and near the end of the fight he has a Desperation Move that's pretty much the ultimate "Fuck you, player" the game had to offer: he freezes time with a giant clock which you have to destroy in a certain amount of time before the clock rewinds to the start of the fight.
    However, the stupidest part of the fight is that it's technically not the final boss, as right after you beat YX, you are thrown into another, MUCH easier fight that really only exists because I guess Tetsuya Nomura didn't want this fight to be like the Roxas fight in KH2FM where it was just a cutscene in the original game.
    To my understanding, they made him easier in the 2.8 HD ReMix Collection. I have no way to verify this, but I want to think that the Square-Enix Osaka Team learned from their mistake and nerfed him on the PS4. I hope that when we inevitably have to fight him again in Kingdom Hearts III he'll be a much better boss than in this game.

  • @theinsanegamer1024
    @theinsanegamer1024 7 років тому +3

    The worst final boss in my opinion is The Creator from Sands of Destruction. Little relevance to the plot? Check. Way to hard low level or to easy if you are high level? Check. Limited time before 1 hit kill? Check. The first phase is REALLY easy if you decided to level grind, but then the second is a little bit harder. If you are max level, which is easy to do since exp needed for leveling is linear, (You need 100 to level up at level 1, 200 at 2, 300 at 3, etc) you'll beat her extremely easily. If you are really low level (60's or 70's) you'll struggle. If you don't beat her in.... I don't really remember but I will say 20 turns, you lose. You will probably lose before then if you are low level. However, if you are high level you will just pummel her and probably beat her WITHIN 1 TURN. Her first form can be beaten with a single character which is 3-4 chained flurries if you are lucky. Her second form has 50,000 HP which is ore than any other boss. This is still not enough when you are high level due to you dealing about 25k or more damage with a single character. If you are a low level it is painfully hard, but since it is so easy to level up you will certainly be a really high level if you grind. You can be 20 hours into the game and be within 7 levels to max. This is at the final area too. 25 hours and you can complete the sidequests to get every characters ultimate weapon and armor. It is really a short game. Anyway, level 94 is more than strong enough to beat The Creator easily. If you only use store bought items, you will struggle somewhat, but the ease of getting some really OP equipment means you won't need to struggle. So choose what you want. Teeth grinding difficulty or pathetic difficulty, you will not get another option. It just goes from hard to easy to pathetic to "That was the final boss?" at around level 85-90 or so.

    I agree with you maverick that bison fight sucked complete ass, the thing that pains me the most is that they did exactly what you wanted in SF4 with Seth, win one round, gets a boost for round two, and the one round was so stupid, even blazblue made the final fight a two round fight, Capcom gotten lazy

    @CMGThePerson 6 років тому +1

    Here's another idea for the Bison battle. Round 1 is a standard fight. Round 2 is a forced loss battle when he gets much more powerfull. Round 3 you switch over to Charlie Nash with Bison having an A.I, Speed and Defence buff and maybe break out the alternate costume. then the sacrifice takes place, bringing down Bison. I've never played SFV (Or any street fighter for that matter) But I is smart.

  • @greengandalfziggy1
    @greengandalfziggy1 7 років тому +4

    Ryu finished Bison because it defied the Illuminati's prophecy and set Ryu up as an essential component for future stories, a wildcard. And it's clear that Nash AND Ryu were both essential to Bison's defeat, Nash inflicted wounds that Bison was able to resist until Ryu put Bison through the ringer, the implication being that neither one of them individually would be able to defeat Bison (so in other words, Nash's revival was not pointless). Also, Bison isn't gone for good (as far as the events of 3S), as confirmed by developer interviews and the fact that his ghost is haunting Ed and there's the risk he could possess Ed at any time.
