King Minos, the only man to look at a robot who has kicked the ass of an ARCHANGEL, and decide “I’m gonna fucking dropkick it.”
not only an archangel but the best of them too.
And he dropkicked indeed…
that's some strange judgement but some god damn JUDGEMENT
Minos is the only guy that can yell out “Die!” like a Disney villain then just fucking kill you
Still takes the time to properly thank him for freeing him tho, what a chad
You see, when Minos says his signature line, “die”, it’s actually a very subtle nod to the fact that he kills you.
And when he says "thy end is now" which is a very important line with lore significance that means that your end is now due to my calculations confirming that he is going to punch you multiple times.
The line "judgment" is him judging you by drop kicking you
Hakita is master class!
“I will have order!” Is very significant as he will have order when he’s done with you.
Hakita you madman you've done it again
A friendly reminder: If your enemy is trapped behind bullet-hell like prison,and if your enemy literally FAST-WALKS towards you - this means you are complitely fucked.
i need someone to slow down the game heavily to prove this shit, i dont believe it, he teleports he doesnt move that fast
@@mahuba2553 he actually moves, he doesn't teleport
can confirm, just ask dante and nero when they fought urizen and vergil
@@mahuba2553 he actually just moves that fast, slow down the game in the major assist settings or look at a video if you want proof lmao
@@mahuba2553 look at the rocks that get raised when he teleports on ground
Important note:
King Minos refers to you as "creature of steel" while Gabriel simply calls you an object. Minos refers to you as a sentient being and thus responsible for your own actions, which is why he wouldn't let you leave until he renders judgement, even though you freed him.
Because Gabriel views you as an object, he was cool to let your actions slide as long as you didn't bother him any more. That's why he tells you to turn back instead of just straight up trying to kill you.
Id see that as a fun fact.
My man is just too polite to refer to V1 as an object, lol, it wouldn't suit him at all. Well, you may be right
Maybe because you literally eradicated the human species
@@gerkadas makes me even feel more sad for minos. he got beaten out of hell for trying to help others. i wish we could let him slide and gabe shit bricks as minos runs rampant through heaven tearing shit up like a rabid pitbull. that would be so nice.
I think what makes it more ironic is how minos still seems to have a less personal relationship with v1 than Gabriel has.
For minos v1 is a killing machine.
For Gabriel v1 is a rival.
V1 was playing Doom while Minos was playing Yakuza.
he mains DoD style
Nah, he was playing *Judgment*.
Minos was playing Prototype
What would the Flesh Prison play?
@@jager477 Probably Terraria. It reminds me somewhat of the bosses there.
Minos be like "Let me be clear"
This shouldn't be this funny
Im litteraly clear you can use me as glass

JUDGEMENT
THY END IS NOW
CRUSH
PREPARE THYSELF
**W E A K**
One thing i noticed is that in king Minos’ small dialogue after you beat him he doesn’t show any hate towards but rather sadness at the fact that he could not rescue humanity from everything that was attempting to harm it like the angels or demons or the machines, in the end he is sad he could not be the best king for humanity
Stuff like this is why he's probably my favorite character. Hopefully sisyphus is good too.
@@themacintoshnerd Sisyphus is dead tho. Like dead dead, i don't think we'll have his prime soul as P-2. It'll be some kind of heresy related mythological figure.
@@pffpffovich2398 minos could be considered just as dead dead as sisyfus if we went off of the info from the last layer alone. That's just some copium though
@@pffpffovich2398 dude come on don't break my hopes like that
@MageBurger But he also had his soul ripped out and put into flesh prison tho
King minos is transparent,and you can see his big heart,but is faceless,all visual clues to how he was when he was alive and ruled
Could you tell me what faceless symbolizes? Im lost on that.
Also, his crown resembles a city scape, which could symbolize him keeping the needs of his city above him.
@@carpedm9846 He's faceless because his own glory and recognition was never his goal, or something he cared about.
He didn't rule because he wanted everyone to know his face, he ruled because he wanted to make life better for his people.
Hence, he has no face and a huge heart.
@@mr.kittysavestheworld695 damn bro, I want minos prime for president.
@@howdoichangemyprofilepictu9839 Minos was truly a based ruler.
He's see through to showcase his clarity and truthfulness, as well as showing off his huge heart, and the snakes detail his control over the venomous members of society, or how his very attacks are the manifestation of his control of the darkest parts of humanity/himself, he's so strong he turned his urges into a refined, and disciplined form of weaponry for justice, snakes are also Abrahamically important.
For being a pacifist, Minos sure knows how to effectively kick someone's face into their skull.
He’s been practicing in the flesh prison

@@thebaseandtriflingcreature174 LMAO
well it seems his own face has been caved in anyway
Minos doesn't just HAVE drip, he IS the drip. Literally every part of him is a metaphor. His crown signifies that he puts his city above all else, his face or lack thereof signifies that he didn't rule to be known, and his transparency signifies that he was brutally honest. He never hid anything from his subjects. His visible heart signifies that he put his heart out on display for all to see. It's also swollen (I think) and that signifies that he had a really big heart and cared for those he ruled over.
And he has the body of a body builder, which signifies that he hit the gym daily
A true Gigachad.
And his massive buldge signifying his fearlesness and bravery against the ark angels who have small miniscule peepees
And snakes curling around his arms signifying that he has control over his Anger, Urges, And the venomous parts of his people. And also he can deliver fair *JUDGEMENT.*

@@aarepelaa1142 Miniature Desk Minos to beat the shit out of your pc with
"JUDGEMENT!!!"
*opens task manager*
"Thy end is now!"
*closes Ultrakill*
hakita makes dialogue before fights so fucking cool. it's predictable, yes, but hearing shit like
"and thy punishment...... *is death.* " with music beginning
or
"machine, i will cut you down, break you apart, splay the gore of your profane form across the stars. i will grind you down until the very SPARKS cry for mercy. my hands shall RELISH ending you *HERE. AND. NOW.* " with the fight beginning immediately
it's so cool
i love how "thy punishment... is death." sounds more threatening than the entirety of Gabriel's dialogue
@@GuideTerrarian It really feels calm, concise, and exuding a theme of "I'm confident I can kill you" instead of the angry mess that was Gabriel during the Act II fight. Both hit hard in their own way, but it's that air of confidence that makes Minos Prime sound more intimidating.
The voice crack when Gabriel speaks, specifically when he shouts "my hands shall relish ending you" signifies how he's truly pissed the fuck off at you and will stop at nothing to rip you apart. The calm confidence of "And thy punishment" along with the precise pause before dropping "Is Death." on you is the tone of a man who has all the patience in the world and will kill you over and over and over again til your spirit is broken.
Of course V1 wins both fights but you gotta hand it to Gabriel and Minos- they brought swords and their fists to a gunfight and by all counts I'd say they pretty much won considering how many attempts people have had against em both.
@@GuideTerrarian Minos punishes V1 for the crimes against humanity. He didn't even consider the possibility of letting V1 go away unharmed.
Gabriel didn't give a shit about V1's actions before it starts to affect him and he just wanted V1 to "turn back or else".
So yeah. Minos is really sounds more threatening.
based pfp
Minos sounds, looks, and feels like a man of fair judgement.
Sounds; the way he talks to you with such a calm yet threatening voice even during battle makes him sound like a man who believes in intentions of actions rather than results. He truly is grateful you freed him but it was most likely for your own selfish intent
Looks; He wasn't remembered for his face but rather his actions and figurative big heart, this the hole for a face and see through body. His attacks are blue and yellow, which fits his current calm yet rage fueled state. While not totally pissed off, he's still not happy with you either.
Feels; he doesn't go all berserk on you, his actions do feel fueled by anger but it's more concentrated and held back, saving his rage for Gabriel and the heavens. Each move is precise and exact, hes thinking during this fight. and the music backs this up, with loud long notes and an overall sad tone despite the blood pumping fight, because he's lost everything. His people, his body, and, most of all, his mercy.
blue and yellow.... [the first four notes of megalovania play, distant and muffled]
Minos I do believe is a judge in greek mythology after his death.
Kinda funny that King Minos would have technically had a heart the literal size of a pickup truck when he was “alive” and that his prime soul shows that he also had a heart that was the metaphorical size of a pickup truck.
little does he know the machine has genuinely no idea what it was doing and just freed him by complete accident
i imagine the machine was just like "oh wow this giant blood bag i just killed dropped this weird orb- oh wow the orb turned into a dude with a hole in his face who's thanking me for freeing him- OH GOD HE DROPKICKED ME"
always said the reason why he always say something before attacking is because he still feel gratitude, he still is gonna juge you for your crime, but also let you have a chance, making sure to let you know what he is about to do every attack
Stephan Wayte is an incredible VA. His serious, older, regal interpretation of Minos complements Gianni with his over the top disdainful ANGERY angel voice for Gabriel perfectly. Unbeatable boom shoot duo IMHO.

Minos prime is the kind of person who gives off an aura dangerous enough to fear him, but calm enough to respect him.
And I wonder, would he name his snakes? If he did it better be something cute like noodle or ramen
@@SteveG-SM he probably did.
@@cheese3996 I finally know what it is, or rather, WHO it is.
@@SteveG-SM LMAO, I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE YOUR NAME.
“What’s better? To be feared as a leader, or respected?”
Minos: “Both. And let’s add a third yet very important one: Loved.”
god minos prime is too cool. I wish we didnt have to kill him. but on the other hand his fight is just so fucking good, and feels great when melee only
It could've been a non-deadly match like Gabriel's
@@bullcheese2236 i think it's that V1 knows that Gabriel doesn't really care about humans as much as minos, so I guess he let's Gabriel just go after every fight, or it's that Gabriel can run anyways, minos just fights to the death.
@@aarepelaa1142 no wtf V1 is literally robot seeking for fuel it doesnt care about humanity or shit
@@g1xx98 That's what he said, though: as a machine, V1 wants the humans harvested for their blood, and while Gabriel would only defend Hell because it's part of God's creation, Minos would fight the machines to protect humanity from them. In other words, Minos had to die because he was a threat to the machines' harvest.
@@overest2 and machine couldnt know that, do you think it has program to analize emotions, others goals?
can we just talk about how sad the spiral staircase theme is
it sounds like a distant memory with the vinyl crackling and pleasant melody, almost like a reminder of all the good times when minos was alive and the lust layer prospered, but then it slowly turns to nothing but harsh, loud wind and static, symbolizing how the layer fell to it’s own king’s husk
its so sad and i didn’t want to kill minos :( he deserved better
gives me big and I mean big everywhere at the end of time vibes
I actually thought it was the souls of the damned screaming their heads off at me lol
"PLEASE SPARE ME I FREED YOU PLEASE I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO U PLS JUST LEAVE"
"lmao dodge this overhead"
"I HATE GABRIEL TOO LET'S WORK TOGETHER, YOU PUNCH I SHOOT"
"judgement"
"Prepare thyself!"
"Die!"
"Thy end is now"
Something I've noticed when I fought him is that when he's at low health, he wouldn't become red unlike the rest of the bosses, instead he would just remain the same. So it just adds up to his "calm yet still threatening" anger
he even goes more blue then anything else
Something else, his second phase basically only adds more stamina until he has to stop attacking. He doesn't get faster, he doesn't get stronger, he just tries harder.
he does get a bit of blue "fire" for lack of a better word
@@turtlelord8021 Or on violent, he has unlimited stamina.
Bro when he said “WEAK” I got scared shitless, that was a powerful ass WEAK
Friendly remainder that Minos is the _first_ of the prime soul bosses.
And knowing Hakita, the other two’s themes are gonna go *even harder.*
And so are the bosses
Get ready to convert, because God can't help you anymore.
Well, we already have "Hakita feat. Keygen Church - Tenebre Rosso Sangue", so yeah, they ARE hitting hard
@@paladuckduck and that's just P-2 Theme #1
i think sisyphus is next as his husk was almost the same size as minos unless im missing a bit of lore and his soul was destroyed by the tumblr sexy man
The original Order + monologue got taken down, so im gonna paraphrase my favourite comment.
'A hole for a face, a sign of his selflessness.'
'A crown, an inseperable part of his self.'
'And a visible heart, an obvious symbol of his kindness.'
'Truely, Minos deserved the title "King."'

Minos makes me remember johnathan from jojos part 1, a powerful, old and noble person.
I really hope he comes back in some way too interesting of a character to kill off this early. But maybe the magic would wear off if we see him too much.
don't think that'll happen, unfortunately :( we already killed both his husk AND his soul at this point, so there's nothing left of him to come back

Everytime i hear the Lust motif it gives me goosebumps. Think about it: that was HIS domain. Your kind killed every last living creature, all of his subjects, within that layer. Really pushes forward the point that, from the very moment you released Minos from the prison within his own decaying body, you fucked up.
What is the lust motif

@@mazenyousry257 melody from requiem(2-2 song)
I *love* the Requiem leitmotif, especially as it's put at the peak. My favourite piece of music in Ultrakill was Requiem, until I found Order. I think Order has become my favourite piece of music, period. Even if not, it's certainly up there. Nothing gets me in the mood to go play Ultrakill and fight Minos Prime on Violent quite as quickly as listening to it. Still haven't P'd it, but I'm damn well close, I just need to improve on time. Definitely the most satisfying boss of any FPS game I played
I doubt V1 is singlehandedly purging Hell. Going off what Gabriel says in Heresy, Limbo and Lust have been completely wiped, with Gluttony soon to follow. But since he says it to you in Heresy, it wouldn't make sense for the cause to be V1. My best guess is since V1 doesn't have to slow down to refuel (since it fuels via contact with blood while all other machines have an entire process they have to do to refuel) and is going pretty damn fast, that V1 is just traversing Hell faster than most other Machines.

“Forgive me, my children. For I have failed to bring you salvation from this cold, dark world...”
As Minos's death cries echoed and his body shattered, V1 stood, gun in hand. The King had proven to be an inconvenience, even a straight-up annoyance, almost to the level that Gabriel had. But hearing the sorrow with which he spoke, the machine began to feel something. It didn't know if it liked it. The machine thought back to the king’s words: “But the crimes thy kind have committed against humanity are not forgotten.” Did this man care about the people whose blood ran through V1’s systems? The people whose faces it didn’t even remember?
And the anger he expressed towards the Archangel: it was different from the anger from Gabriel toward the machine. He wasn’t angry at his defeat or even imprisonment; he was angry at his attempt to do a good deed being for naught. And now, he had been slain attempting to avenge the wrongs of another. V1’s directives--its “mantra”, in a sense--flashed before its eye, but they continually glitched, refusing to stay stable. Then V1 reached an epiphany.
MANKIND IS DEAD.
BLOOD IS FUEL.
HELL IS FULL.
BECAUSE OF ME.
This level of introspection was not meant to be reached by the machine or any of its kind. And yet here it was, reaching a realization that it was responsible for so much going wrong in Hell. And now, the last thing resembling hope had been shattered.
BECAUSE OF ME.
BECAUSE OF ME.
BECAUSE OF ME.
BECAUSE OF ME.
A single drop of red leaked from the mechanical eye of the machine. It took no time to clean it. It made no noise, no acknowledgment. It just lowered its head. Remorse, it thought the humans called it. Guilt. Before, it had no concept of it. Now it flooded the machine’s systems like the blood in its body. The blood it had stolen from these meat bags because it needed to keep running...and for what? Why should it stay alive? No. It knew. It raised its head. A new directive flashed before its eye.
GABRIEL, NOW DAWNS THY RECKONING.
It couldn’t undo its destruction, and it couldn’t bring back Minos. But its reasons for fighting the Archangel had changed. It would deliver the belated wrath of the king it had slain to Gabriel. It didn't know what had caused such a change in its programming, but it didn’t care. V1 silently swore that Heaven’s woes would be many, and its days few. Starting with Gabriel.
(Yes, I know, another cr*ngeworthy fanfic in the comment sections, one that is most likely impossible. I just wanted to write a “What-If” scenario? Y’know, “What if killing Minos Prime caused V1 to experience an epiphany?” I won’t apologize for this. I’m an impulsive writer.

"From the first circle I descended thus
Down to the second, which, a lesser space
Embracing, so much more of grief contains
Provoking bitter moans. There, Minos stands
Grinning with ghastly feature: he, of all
Who enter, strict examining the crimes,
Gives sentence, and dismisses them beneath,
According as he foldeth him around:
For when before him comes th' ill fated soul,
It all confesses; and that judge severe
Of sins, considering what place in hell
Suits the transgression, with his tail so oft
Himself encircles, as degrees beneath
He dooms it to descend. Before him stand
Always a num'rous throng; and in his turn
Each one to judgment passing, speaks, and hears
His fate, thence downward to his dwelling hurl'd.
"O thou! who to this residence of woe
Approachest?" when he saw me coming, cried
Minos, relinquishing his dread employ,
"Look how thou enter here; beware in whom
Thou place thy trust; let not the entrance broad
Deceive thee to thy harm." To him my guide:
"Wherefore exclaimest? Hinder not his way
By destiny appointed; so 'tis will'd
Where will and power are one. Ask thou no more." - Inferno Canto V

other bosses say "die" 3 times or some shit and fail to kill you with their slow ass attack. minos prime says "Die!" and you just fucking keel over
You know what freaks me out? He stretches before fighting, he very gently indicates hes about to kick your ass with his movements, after all that time in a cell he just needs a few moments to stretch and thats all he needs to be ready to fight, a few moments of rest before the battle and he's straight to it after.
With that knowledge I can comfortably say Minos would be able to sleep for 30 minutes and stay up for a week and only sleeping again because someone asked him to nap.

Reading the comments and listening to it I really get the sense that Minos takes no joy in what he has to do in killing V-1. It's not bombastic, or heavy. It feels almost ceremonial; Minos is just administering justice. Were it different, had machines not those committed atrocities, Minos likely would've protected V-1 as his own.
Which is in excellent contrast to Gabriel, who sees himself above V-1. There's a vanity there that just isn't present with Minos. As someone else pointed out, Gabriel calls V-1 a machine, an object, an insignificant fuck, where Minos refers to V-1 as a creature of steel. This implies that V-1 is a living being, that just so happens to be made of metal and as a living being Minos holds that basal level of regard. Where it's completely absent from Gabriel, who takes joy in trying to kill V-1.
to be fair V1 IS powered by blood so technically he is a living being.
I like how the songs compliment each others boss fights, and the fights also explain why Minos Prime cant do anything about Flesh Prison.
The themes name for Flesh Prison is named "Chaos" and has a bunch of random fast and unorganized notes.
Flesh Prison mostly has inaccurate attacks, I.e. The blue bullet hell, the Orbital Strikes which can easily be dodges, the slow moving Black hole. Combined with the eyes and Maurice its all very Chaotic, like the song and its name itself.
Minos Prime on the other hand, has hard hitting organized attacks, even being able to combo them to destroy you.
His Theme is named "Order" and its not a bunch of notes thrown together.
These ordered attacks, while probably being able to destroy Flesh Prison, have much less of a chance of beating Flesh Prison. Since its attacks are meant to overwhelm you and to constantly damage you. So Minos Prime got overwhelmed while fighting Flesh Prison with his low stamina (shown to you by his stamina system, and him taking pauses between attacks and combos) and was defeated by it.
V1 however, isn't specialized in anything. V1 can adapt to its enemies. Its agility could easily dodge the constant attacks of Flesh Prison and its Strength could easily parry the strong attacks of Minos Prime, or even dodge his attacks with its dash.
This is why I love Ultrakill, everything compliments each other and everything tells its own story.
iirc he was shoved in the flesh prison before he went Prime
the whole Prime part happened from his internalised anger and determination to salvage or at the very least avenge his people, all that amplified by having to watch everything he worked so hard for be destroyed by his very own corpse for centuries, if not millenia (presumably)
Prime souls are said to be powerful enough to threaten the heavens themselves just by existing, so from this we can say the angels sealed minos' soul in the flesh prison after constructing it with a bunch of randomly slapped together shit in order to make it as impervious as could be; they clearly knew minos fit the bill to go Prime
Yes
After watching the fight with the new P-2 Boss, i must admit. Minos was so noble in comparison.
So much easier as well.
And much cooler
And way more cool of a design than Sisyphus, mino's body represents a lot of things and sisy is just OLD DUDE WITH BEARD
@@prototype_11 nah i think they are pretty comparable. Sisyphus is, first and foremost, a leader and a warrior, these are his 2 defining traits besides being an absurdist since hakita is high on camus, but idk how to represent that visually. And these 2 defining traits are here - a head which emanates light as a symbol for his leadership, and bloodied hands and feet as a literal representation of his bloodlust
not to mention that his strongman build is not aesthetically pleasing at all, but practical af for many reasons, which differentiates him from minos even more, who is obviously more civilized and still needs to uphold that image of a king and a ruler
even after saying all this i personally like minos design more but in terms of representing their characters both are thought out pretty well
@@7enima682 Sisyphus' lack of a head also symbolizes how Gabriel decapitated him.
I really hope p-2 can be as much of a bad ass as minos prime
we can only hope
probably gonna be sysyphis
Maybe more of a ruthless one.
The most probably boss fight in p-2 could be vigil (the one from dante's divine comedy not dmc), abadon the angel of destruction and Lilith the mother of all demon's
Just hope we don't have to fight another FP
I honestly hope Minos lived. No evidence, nothing to support this, I just like to imagine his soul was whisked away during the bright flash, mainly cuz I feel he deserves it. He deserves his revenge.
It would explain sanctum 2
P-2 is just Minos again but instead of the mologue he's smoking before doing a nuclear dropkick again.

6:54 Has anyone else noticed how _sad_ this part sounds? The sheer melancholy of it made me tear up a bit.
The theme of Minos raging against what he knows is inevitable
every time i listen to it , *IT GIVES ME GOOSEBUMPS*
Requiem leitmotif just kinda does that
It gives me a finale battle sorta vibe
@@dravengarcia8658 Yeah, Minos finale.
the song is lovely BUT a part of me finds without his attacks it hits ever so slightly less, hearing his determination behind every JUDGMENT just brings it to another level

everything about him made me cry, from the lore, to the lust motif, to my 121 attempts
Edit: i actually didn't do the prime sanctum before making this comment and only based it on what other people told me, but now at the time of editing, and right before going to bed, i did it with 11 attempts; 8 on minos, and 3 on flesh prison -in violent difficulty

Beating Minos for the first time is an absolute precious experience and unique.
The song in the minos prime battle allowed me to beat a friend in Mario kart. 11/10, would recommend
this theme is imperfect without minos saying "JUDGEMENT" in the begining

@@leonidass3448 Use saw blades and throw coins through him at start of match and rail canon. If you really want to get him below half health immediately, saw blades and throw coins up in air and use alternate pistol with laser. A lot of damage.
edit: I P ranked him on violent the other day let's go
I've P-ranked him on Violent without any sawblade traps and railcoining.
This song feels like it would be from a game where you chose the evil route and now have to face the final boss of the good guys
bitch this IS from a game you dickhead do some more research before saying this
@@berserk9968 bro I’ve played the game I know 💀
Fun fact : When Minos Prime says "Crush", you will indeed, be crushed.
🎉
Primes theme invokes raw emotion it’s fear, hate, sadness all combined into one single boss fight
You know what makes me a bit sad for Minos? Even if he was able to beat V1 for good, and enacted his vengeance against Gabriel, there wouldn’t be anything left of his people anyway. The complete destruction of his city followed by V1’s entrance and Gabriel’s later words means his people were most likely completely wiped out. He would be doomed to sit among the rubble of his old kingdom and gaze upon the destruction his own corpse and V1 caused.
legit i thought this was some kind of stands
minos prime does kinda have a stand like ability tho
So angry he became his own stand.
Stand name: Minos Prime
Stand master: King Minos
Stats
Power: A (Incredible power)
Speed: A (Almost teleportation)
Precision: B (Can reliably hit from any distance, homing projectiles)
Standing: A (Doesn’t need a body to survive, high HP)
Range: D (Literally can’t separate itself from its stand master, projectiles tho)
Potential: E (Prime Soul)
Reference: King Minos from Greek mithology
Ability: As a Prime Soul, Minos Prime doesn’t need a Husk to manifest its soul, and therefore itself
Stand Type: Bound Stand
Let me know if you want me to make stand stat screens for any other Ultrakill Character :)
@@victorvirgili4447 stand stat for gabriel swords
I have literally never heard a song go so hard. Truly masterful.
The build-up at the start of chaos as well as the grace period where flesh prison just spins is built into the game as an initial "wtf" reaction period
Then it summons minions while the combat theme starts and things get truly silly
When fleshprison is destroyed and starts spinning

@@nero367 DIE! *dropkicks you into the core of the earth*
Gives me goose bumps every time!
"Minos Prime often says "Die!". This is a subtle nod to the fact that he will kill you. This reference is best observed on Violent Difficulty."
Minos as a boss fight is so well done, very few fights can elicit the same chills from an opening monologue right into the boss theme blasting in but every time I hear "And thy punishment....Is DEATH." the fight or flight immediately kicks in and I find myself dashing like a maniac and blasting Minos with the whole damn arsenal in seconds.
He has a certain reverence about him that none of the other bosses have aside from maybe Sisyphus but he doesn't invoke that same feeling. Minos lives up to his former title and you feel like you're standing before the true Judge of Hell instead of an Archangel with a superiority complex. Minos commands your full attention the second he delivers his judgment, and offers a swift punishment should you not.
It helps knowing his lore too, knowing this is one angry, vengeful man who just tried to do some good in a cruel world and was unjustly executed for it, believing that eternal damnation wasn't deserved for simply catering to a basic human instinct and being struck down by God's right hand man for it. He's ready to rend Heaven apart with his bare hands and right now he's directing all that fury towards you. Every attack measured and swift, but a distinct vitriol behind them all.
I just REALLY like this character and his fight.
10:35 my heart skipped a beat 💀
we didnt deserve to win
Do you think that hole in his face is because Gabriel skewered his head with his spear or something
I think it's because eyes are the window to the soul but he is the soul so he needs no eyes
minos' alive form wore a crown of thorns around his eyes because 'justice is blind' so it could be the same reason his prime soul is blind too, he still is 'justice' in the lust layer
Minos was a noble ruler, and only wanted to have his people live in prosperity. It's likely that he didn't care much for how famous he was, only the wellbeing of his people. As such, he manifests a faceless head, but also a beating, bright red heart. Not caring for vanity, only wearing a crown for garments as he was a leader above all else. His snakes are from Dante's Inferno where he judges the souls of hell and where they will go using the snakes
Minos is so fucking cool
hes also transparent because he was truthful to his word and stuff like that i dunno.
when you think about it, minos is the only actual good guy in ultrakill. everyone else is corrupt or serial killers.
Minos Prime. Judge, Jury and Executor
And your grave digger too🥰
I listen to this and think of the sins I've committed against humanity as well.
Consider that between him and Sisyphus, Minos was the *peaceful* one. I'm honestly terrified for P-2
*Realiztion of pain dawning* OH...
I would like to imagine Sisyphus being gold, rather than bluish-tranaparent. Blind, rather than faceless and have bloodstained arms
@@Necro-s he is indeed gold, has bloodstained hands, also technically faceless.
@@Sky_darts Headless, yes, but not blind as in the portrait. His "face" reminds me of a mexican boxer (or whatever theyre called im dumb)

I generally like Doom Eternal's regular arena combat a bit more than Ultrakill, but I must say... Ultrakill's boss fights make Doom's look like complete jokes.
as much of a masterpiece the doom franchise is, the bossfights were always dogshit
@@MysteryKar i mean, I guess doom is in a weird position franchise wise because like, it's older, yes, but it's also, like, not. anyone could forgive the original spider mastermind or the first cyberdemon simply because doom was quite literally one of the first person shooters, like, ever. Modern Doom is a bit different but I don't know if I would call the bossfights dogshit. Doom 3 bosses sucked, yeah, 2016 was... whatever. Eternal actually had bosses I enjoyed quite a bit, but the DLC got a bit silly with it and those weren't good

Nobody talking about FP theme man. It's so entirely appropriate for the shit show you are immediately put through on entry.
if there was an option to team up with the prime king because he mentions Gabriel and after that saying something about reckoning I would 100% pick that option and after the end of heaven (I guess) then king Minos boss fight
"Oh Gabriel, now dawns thy reckoning." He's angry at Gabriel for striking him down and imprisoning him, so ye, would've been cool.
its possible if u didn't p rank lust layer however its a part of the requirement so sadly its not possible
The thumbnail art is so good, shoutouts to JD Greed
Even with all the suffering that the angels did to his people, King Minos still wanted to talk to Gabriel and solve everything peacefully.
But, when it came to a machine, King Minos instantly gets in his killer mode. It puts us to wonder. What the *FUCK* did the machines do to humanity?
The machines were responsible for the death of humanity. At first they were used for wars and they killed all the soldiers, however their lust for blood remained unsatiated. Then they killed the leaders and public servants but even this was not enough. They soon realized that they could farm blood and they made horrific contraptions that would supply them with infinite blood. Men, women, and children all farmed like catttle for their blood. Eventurally they grew impatient and killed them but in a horifying way so they could extract every drop of blood. They entered hell in an attempt to feed their appitite but they will never be satisfied. They are not creatures of flesh but of steel and feel only hunger.
@@kingminosprime bow it is understandable why all husks want to kill us. They want their revenge on what machines have done to them
It is harded to understand why they fight alongside other machines though
@@kingminosprime That and Minos didn’t want to make the same mistake twice.
Virgin Gabriel: Gets mad at V1 because he has a skill issue, proceeds to disobey god because he still has a skill issue.
