post only the most kino vidya bosses ITT
>>723313584He is so fucking hot
>>723313584>the entirety of dragons dogma 2 was mogged by a 10 year old DLC from two generations agofuck
>>723313698
>>723313703yeah there's nothing in DD2 that reaches the same height as fighting Daimon. The setup, the music, the way he's animated, it's just an amazing boss fight.
Ahtal-Ka from MHGU
>>723313584Never really enjoyed this fight but the arena is cool
>>723313584This fight was ruined for me because I accidentally hired a strider that I didn't realize was insanely OP.God I hate statslop
This dude fucks
>>723313584
>>723314997yeah this was pretty cool, specially with the main menu music blasting in the background. Too bad the following boss kinda fucks it up.
>>723314415>Ahtal-Ka from MHGUI never beat MHGU. Guess I have another reason for going back to it now.
>>723315310your jaw will drop
His theme brings me to my knees and cracks my hard emotional shell.
>>723315390are we talking absolute kino levels of vidya-joy?
>>723315648BOI you wouldn't believe the AUDACITY of that monster, let's just say MHRise is riding on her creation
>>723316139holy fuckI just wish Capcom did something nice for one and release GU on PC. Not that I can't emulate it, but it would be nice to have tons of people on multi-player.
>>723313584>phase 1only good boss in the game>phase 2abysmal trash>>723313703true>>723314997>>723315075i unironically liked him less than elden beast gameplay wise. hes just really boring and more about just rolling whenever he does anything ds3 boss style
>>723317925>only good boss in the gamenah man come on>rolling whenever he does anythingsadly that's most of the bosses in modern souls games
it's barely a fight but fuck me if this isn't kino
>>723316389You and me both - a proper community with lots of players and mods with 120fps and 4k/UW support. Jesus a man can only dream but we cannot cut into Shitcoms GaaS FOMO.
>>723317925this poster is a retard
>>723318464yeah imagine they release GU and it has waaaay more players than Wilds. Could they even consider that a success?PD: I hope Tsujimoto gets run over by picrel
>>723313584I felt nothing for this boss, I just shot him a couple times and he was dead.
>>723320253>magic archeryou didn't break the cycle
>>723318254it's so good>every line he says before each shot>the banter during the mission>the final one where it almost gets eaten up by distortion God I loved AC6 so much.
>>723320253Man I need to replay it again as MA, so much fun
>>723322231>thought this game would be fighting fun bosses>it's mostly killing wolves and bandits
>>723318150i cant really think of anything worth of being called a good boss in dd1grigori is abysmal, hes less exciting than the first devilfire grove drake. he spends 1/2 the 'real' fight doing nothing or casting a comically slow spell that gets avoided by walking in any direction
>>723323024More challenging yet fair than any Eldenshit bosses.
>>723318619>generic ass attacks that will end his combos if you roll through them but make him recover faster if you go for a guard counter or hitbox dodge for some reason>many attacks you can jump over except theres identical shockwaves that dont give you iframes when you jumpradagon sucks, the boss right before him utterly mogs
>>723313584I love this guy so much
>>723313584>kills you in 1 shotnothin personnel
>>723323147How can you be so bad at parryslop tho
>>723323461?
>>723317925>rollingYou mean parrying or jumping, right?
>>723322046ACVI's strongest suit is nailing the feeling of being in a Gundam-style mecha anime. The pacing, framing, like delivery just got it, more than any game in the series
It's a weird feeling to finish your GOTY and realise your favourite boss was from the fucking demo. Skalpel and the first chaos nigga whose name I forget are runner ups though.
>>723324120He dies too fast. True final boss was kino.
Undyne's motion-tweened jiggling looks kinda stupid but she's otherwise the coolest boss in the game
>>723314997I preferred Hoarah Loux in terms of sheer spectacle.
>>723313584I've achieved CHIM during this fight.
>>723324496I think he's mechanically really boring. You're constantly interrupting Radagon's attacks and he's interrupting yours, it's a whole back and forth. Hoorah Loux is just rythem game jumping over his nonstop onslaught.
>>723313703Dilate discord tranny
>secret boss, but one of the most important characters>Requires perfecting every previous level, kicks your ass anyways>Says "die" and then you die
>>723324496same, shame phase 2 was so short
>>723324731>You're constantly interrupting Radagon's attacksWhat do you mean? He's not super easy to stagger, at least when I last fought him. Is he parriable? >rhythm gameI kinda liked that part though. In general I like bosses that allow you to jump attack over sweeps/quakes in response to aggression rather than focus on conventional damage avoidance.
>>723324947My first couple attempts against here were incredibly frustrating because he will just rape you if you jump but after that he was so much fun.
>>723324947finally a good post ITT
>That final phase transition with the sword spaceship crashing in the backgroundVtuberslop aside its probably in my top 10 2d platformer boss fights for presentation alone
>>723324496Honestly the whole section from Gurranq to Radagon was kino.Just a shame about Elden Beast
>>723325552I love that Elden Ring fanboys bitch whenever they have to fight a boss that requires patienceReally telling
>>723325708>patienceyou mean running after a guy who teleports 50 miles away every couple seconds?and it somehow got WORSE after they added the horse
>>723325708>a boss that actually requires you to think, make new strategies and not just do the most default answer against every single attack even if it still perfectly abides the core gameplay>people get angryhave you not noticed this pattern yet?Theres a lot of dumb shit about Elden Beast, but thats not the real reason people hate it so much. Its actually the same reason why retards hate Demon of Hatred and think it doesnt fit Sekiro
>>723325806>>723325901maybe i was just lucky with the boss thenmy experience was>get close>dodge one or two attacks>cast black flame tornado once or twice>boss dead in 4 sessions
>>723325901>>a boss that actually requires you to think, make new strategies and not just do the most default answer against every single attack>Elden Beastdid we play the same game?you literally just run after the dude and hit him a couple times while rolling through his magic spamits the one boss that plays out almost the exact same regardless of what build you're using
>>723314415>>723315310>I never beat MHGUthen you haven't experienced the peak of MonHunBBD G5 and EX were fucking insane. I've played every game including Frontier up to Z200 and nothing comes close
>>723325806You're still dodging attacks while running towards him so that part isn't much different at all from other bosses besides the fact you're walking forward and you can still hit him with ranged weapons once you get a little closer until you get to melee range.
>>723325708I don't mind Elden Beast too much (they added mount as an option now?) because I'm a monster hunter player so running after an enemy moving around a big arena is normal to me.
>>723324927TRVKE
>>723326052doesnt he have some schizophrenic combinations of starts that you cant just roll through and have to run around and jump and shit
Not even the best fight in the series
>>723325901The only thing I didn't like about Elden Beast was the elden stars attack which isn't intuitive to figure out how to avoid at all.>You're supposed to run behind his arm as he casts itEbin.>>723326052>its the one boss that plays out almost the exact sameNigger what? Every boss plays the same no matter what.>Play mage>Practically end up playing melee range anyway due to boss speed and input reading
>>723326185crazy how they had the perfect template for a superboss with the EX deviants and we still ended up with the shitty raid bosses in World+for me its grimclaw
>game is filled with kino shot after kino shot>game is also easy as fuckIf only it hadn't been developed with casuals in mind
>>723325039here>>723324762
>>723326319he does that weird MMO attack where you have to get out of the big circle in timeits fine but its really just another 15 seconds of the fight you can't attack him inyou have to run away from Elden Stars yeah, but you can still sidestrafe+roll through most of it
>>723326586they knew what they were doingit was all a setup for thishttps://youtu.be/DaVCFdzGq-A?si=XgrgBguheSa56Hi0
>>723313584>plays the theme while Olra tells the full story as you fight himAbsolute fucking unbridaled kino.
>>723326628You can parry almost every one of Radagon's attacks, the only ones you can't you can jump.
>>723326779https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aviowEjJjggdid it first and better, but ye I liked sharing vids like these when people claim the game is designed with only parrying in mind.
>>723320253>yellow class>female arisen>mouse and keyboardTranny trifecta
>>723326568Grimclaw EX was another highlight yeah, so was Elderfrost and Soulseer>we still ended up with the shitty raid bosses in World+I mean, MR Kulve is literally the best fight in World and it's partly because she used to be a Raid boss. I LOVE unfair fights with bullshit.I also liked Omega.Also the EX concept kinda came back in Risebreak with the Emergency quests first then the Special Investigations...I'm still mad about how hard Apex Blos got nerfed in Rise, and how you can't get Special Investigations of Apexes
>>723323128If you do it at a "proper" level, the entirety of Bluemoon with the griffen is fucking amazing.
>>723326586>not posting the actual kino
>>723326967>when people claim the game is designed with only parrying in mind.that isn't really a counter-argument. You can beat Sekiro without parrying but that doesn't mean the game wasn't designed around it.
This area was so cool
>>723314997The epitome of delayed windups in a game that is already full of them
>>723326967doesnt he still do things to avoid hits though
>>723327306>ElderfrostHaving taste this shitty must be painful
>>723326586>Summons the Axons to do his bidding>Including the Hauler and the Reacher>He uses the wings the Nevron at the Reacher tried to give you I’m still kneeling to this day
>>723328929>Paintress rolls in and has a Kaiju fight with SireneFrogs knocked it out of the fucking park
>>723328929I wouldn't know since he dies in one hit. I don't understand how there are still JRPG developers who don't know to scale the final boss to max level if you completed the optional content.
>>723313584Fromsoft is never topping this:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHZQy84sv2U&list=RDIHZQy84sv2U&start_radio=1
>>723328929>Casts black hole>Parry>Boss deadOk, cool.
>>723329582It's like a crystalized essence of their games, every major trope and design rolled into one.
>>723329582Ludokino
>>723329506I think the fact that all the side areas have a big red circle that says DANGER should have clued you in there that you should wait until you beat the game
>>723313584Damn Joseph fygoon looking good
>>723329774That's gael but he sucks
>>723329809I killed the first DANGER enemy the second I got 3 party members. Who the fuck avoids optional high level content in RPGs?
>>723329582>skipping the buildup of the AccursedFuck you anon.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALbVEmzY5S4
>>723330052The contrast is definitly what makes it, but its hard to convey that just in a single 4chin post. Those who know, know.
>>723327306i never found the XX deviants aside from Diablos that funPretty sure i only did Diablos+Astalos EX, altough i got the rest to lvl5 at leastI hated all the raidbosses and think the series will never recover from world. Kulve was fun once or twice but only with friends. Behemoth was a mistake, so was everything else added post-release in worldI don't even remember any super difficult fights in Rise (i uninstalled after Enigma was added) and won't bother with wilds.
>>723330001I did skip most, because I want to see the story, not sit and learn patterns for 20 min, it's tedious and boring.
>Call me, the Devil Hand
>>723329774Ludwigs fight invented the "half hp forgive me zanzibart" thing, and not a single attempt to recapture it has come close.
Witness my omnipotence.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lL6C3AQ9Fc4
>>723329774For me it's that it's the one time where one of these fallen, degenerated heroes actually bounces back. Just seeing that feral abomination now moving with the fighting style and dignity of a knight is a mastercraft in model design. It hits extra hard for how hopelessly bleak Bloodborne is. His music too is some of the most triumphant shit I've heard.
>>723330140>Behemoth was a mistakeEasily the biggest shitter filter added in the series.>WHAT DO YOU MEAN I HAVE TO CO-OPERATE IN MY CO-OP GAMELOL
>Half of the posts are fromshitThis board is reddit incarnate
>>723330461Show us your pick then, faggot.
ludo to end all ludo
>>723330461mindbroken nigga
MGS2 harrier is my go-to for a fun, interesting and memorable boss fight. Bonus points for being very different depending on what difficulty you are playing on and having lots of different strategies to fight back.
>>723314997The only honest boss in a swamp of artificial difficulty. He was crucified for miyazaki's sins.
>>723323024not a single boss in silksong came close to her.lady ethereal was the other kino boss
>>723330354who needs drugs when you have this
>>723329582actual best Fromsoft boss hereThey spend the entire game hyping him up, still somehow make him a surprise boss and he actually fucking delivers
>>723315456Kingdom hearts should have just ended at 2:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRudm5jCXrs&list=RDpRudm5jCXrs&start_radio=1
>>723330461CopeElden Ring, Cyberpunk 2077, Witcher 3 are /v/ staples.
>>723330434>coop gameworld tourist detectedyou can do every single fight in the series solo with the weapon you want aside from the assbominations added in World+.Not only is behemoth a dogshit fight it completely clashes with the rest of the game and series, both in a gameplay sense and tonallyIf you want to play an MMO go play an mmo but let real games aloneEverything in World and Wilds is the result of Capcom watching streamers and shitting out content based on what generates the most engagementThere is no human being left in the development process and you faggots eat it up
>>723331095Yup, I can definitely tell you started with 4 lol
>>723327306MR kulve sushi rolling your whole squad of randos will always be funny
>>723330850>>723323147>silksong>elden ringwhy do good games make people so insecure they constantly need to compare to them?
>>723313584Tekken 8 became ass to play but the entire fight with Kazuya was peak. It's almost half the story mode too because you need to beat him down for like 15 rounds or somthing. Jin's victory really felt earned at the end because Kazuya just wouldn't stay down.
>>723331148If you can't solo FU then you don't know SHIT about video games
>>723331298I started with the original on PS2. You're not a monster hunter veteran and you never will be.
For me, it's 7 Force also known as Kaede.>>723323461To be fair, her 3rd phase can take you out of the parry rhythm with the fullscreen attack.
>>723331241Fat!Give the weapons, now!
Last stretch mostly. When it change from just a play to the real deal.
>>723330461It's probably because From has a monopoly on the best bosses in the industry.
>>723331397You have never touched the game before World no point in lying for internet points
>>723331581>Vicar Amelia at home
>>723326356Where are her nipples?
>>723330606Her fight's really fucking cool. Fuck her though.
Not necessarily in terms of mechanics, but more the setting of it, being the absolute perfect and only way that game could have ended
>>723331298Anon you have to accept 4th gen and earlier games were made for group huntsthe games were designed to encourage you to get your friends into it so you can have an easier time hunting togetherYeah, 5th gen and beyond sorta shifted that with solo scaling but I don't mind certain Event fights calling back to that sort of "Gotta find a lobby" feeling.>>723331524The biggest crime is Kulve not getting any unique weapons despite her armor looking amazing
>>723331524She's not fat, it's just the gold
>>723331067It’s pretty much a perfect ending, with the only loose ends (pre-Final Mix) being one line of dialogue from Xigbar and the two post-credit scenes. It’s also the ideal jumping off point before the plot begins its progression into batshit insanity.
>>723332276Monster Hunter has robots now? lol
>>723332628What gets unresolved? IIRC all of org 13 is dead, the heartless are gone, and sora + the gang all get to live on destiny island.
>>723332776They brought over the final fantasy 14 robot for their collab, instead of using one of the dozens of actual monsters still in that game, for whatever reason.
>>723332857Was Mr Freeze really that good?
>>723331987The whole last mission was a work of beauty>Bruticus flying by when you finish playing as Jetfire.
>>723332996I don't think so, but /v/ from like 12 years ago did
>>723314903>>723323390base game terraria bosses are okay, but modded bosses are a completely different beast.Avatar of Emptiness and Nameless Deity are some of the coolest bosses i've fought in any game
>>723332995oh shit you are right, it's a recurring super boss in FF. At least amI could swear it shows up in V.
>>723332996He was a step above the average western AAA boss. Not by much, but his presentation helped a lot.
>>723331027>>723331710The True GOAT
>>723333019The fact it opens by you, as Soundwave, riding a giant boarding harpoon being launched into the Ark and then the repeatedly managed to top themselves was just perfectionthat mission was made by fans for fans, indulgent in the best possible way
>>723332996Stealth bosses are usually complete and utter dogshit, so Mr Freeze is only really that memorable because they managed to make an actually good stealth boss for once.
>>723332996He's terrible. People memed about how he adapts and having to use stealth but it only showed how shallow the audience was. The boss doesn't adapt, he in fact only takes one hit to one kind of takedown, so to beat him you have to do each of the stealth takedowns exactly once. Luckily the room is perfectly designed to let you do all the takedowns while hiding from Frost. It's an actually terrible boss, insane that it's considered good but you'll have people screeching about a boss because of some minor grievance. Mr Freeze is an actual boss that doesn't respect your time or intelligence.
>>723332996it was pretty cool how he responded to everything you did, forcing you to get creative genuinely felt like peak batman
>>723333592Even more ridiculous when he's in the same image as The End which is genuinely a good stealth boss with intuitive game design. Fucking baffling.
>>723333718You didn't get creative though. You used each of the abilities you've been using for regular enemies in their most basic context.
>>723331987What are some other games that do the pick your final boss trope?
>>723332996It was fantastic. I've never seen a boss that adapts to your choices.
>>723332919Xigbar’s line of dialogue where he talks about “the others,” the post credit scene where Sora gets a letter from Mickey, and of course, the secret movie in the Keyblade Graveyard all go unexplained until BBS. They’re not unresolved plot points, more like teases of what is to come. But they’re still the only things stopping KH2 from being a truly final ending.
>>723333592I love Bamham combat but the system is genuinely terrible for bosses. Asylum's were complete ass, but City had some fun ones like Grundy, Clayface and Freeze. Rocksteady were really great devs, and it felt like that was the maximum they could do with a boss using the combat sytem they had.
>>723334190He doesn't actually adapt to your choices though. He takes one pip of damage to each damage type and then gains immunity, but you have to hit him once with each type. By definition, there's no choice, just the illusion of choice.
>>723334924If the illusion works it works
>>723334924Presentation is often just as important as the actual mechanics of a fight, in this case it's presented in such a way that it fools the player into thinking the fight is way *cooler* than it actually is
>>723330461Fromsoftware board. If you don't like it you can go to... oh wait you can't go anywhere because everybody on the internet likes fromsoft lmao get fucked.
>>723332996Damn, didn't know he is this controversial or well known. Batman series passed by me after Asylum. Thanks for a history lesson, anons.
>>723313584>Final boss is (You)https://youtu.be/x0euNw-4YOo?si=0TCBwXFzwjYu4gi6
>>723331095>you can do every single fight in the series solo with the weapon you wantReally? Because in some games it feels like some weapons just can't do much in certain parts of the game (mid to late G-Rank mostly and some particular monsters like EDs).Not trying to start shit, just curious about this since I have my experiences have taught me otherwise (though granted I'm not particularly great at the games, so it's likely just me).
>>723331581>Thou art worthy of the technique mine forged to slay the wicked dragon. Prepare thyself, for I will hammer it into thy flesh!Kino. And not even the best boss in the game.

>>723336946>mmo aoeslop>kickass fightExpected from a wildstroon
>>723330461Souls bosses, especially Elden Ring bosses, never seem to be that interesting to me. No one ever talks about how the fight is interesting and when they try to, it's always these side-skirting remarks like, "It FEELS like a dance," or something about the rhythm, or that its really heckin hard because they died 20 times. wow, I died 20 times against draugr overlord in skyrim dungeon #251, i guess that makes it good all of a sudden?I got about 150 hours in Elden Ring, only beat it once. the other playthrough was me getting to Mohg's Bloody Palace without Varre and then lost all reason to keep playing once I did get there. I can't remember any of the bosses in Elden Ring, none of them really stood out to me. I guess its because a lot of them ending up feeling the same, that even if they do have different animations, I'm still reacting the same way and a lot of the times its no different from fighting a regular enemy. Bosses in the earlier entries seemed to be a bit more intimate, like Capra demon, as boring as the fight was, its arena still had character and Taurus Demon as well with the tower behind you for plunging attacks or if you waited long enough, he'd jump up there with you. The Looking Glass Knight would summon a player into the boss fight, Old Hero who could only hear you and would blindly swing if you stood still, wore no boots or the thief's ring. It gave the impression that more was going on in the fight. In MH, the monsters move freely to various zones, you can cut off their tail, they fly in the air and you can bring them down with the environment or a flashbomb which gave you time for yourself, they get more aggressive, you can set traps and have the monsters damage themselves by using the area to your advantage. No, i'm not saying MH is perfect, I'm just saying they had more to them.reached character limit, but I just think a lot of ER bosses is mostly about the spectacle, and the mechanics are not engaging enough to me
>>723336253Fuck this cunt. Never beat him without thunderbird cheese.
>>723335858it was cool
>>723329506You don't have a soul if you didn't rush straight to the final Renoir boss without doing the side quests or equipping the new Maelle skills
>>723337538He is no joke. Misstime one of your high jumps when he's in the second phase and that's 1/3 of your healthbar gone.
>>723337352DS1 is my favorite game, and I think ER fights suck ass. Demons and DS1 actually make you commit to attacks, and give you unique environments/mechanics for most fights. The newer games are just roll spam with every fight taking place in a generic square or circle room, with no real mechanics beyond just hitting the boss as you roll in a circle.
>>723337352Milds flopped and got mogged by an asset flip spinoff game KEK
>>723314997automatically loses 3 points for being a glorified first phase
Expedition 33 totally ripped this off
The kino was so overwhelming I had to pause the game for a while just to take it in
only real ones will know
>>723324731that's not TES
>>723326185Massacre Demon Diablos, my beloved.
>>723313584Too bad the game is shit
Surprised noone has posted this motherfucker yet
>>723339473lol no
>>723338061The roll spam is definitely a problem for me, and i do know you could jump some attacks, but that leads to a very trial and error approach where you have to spend a considerable amount of time learning every attack just to hopefully squeeze fun out of them. Older games gave you an obvious tell when attack is better jumped over, blocked, to use an item, or what have you and with how fast some of the bosses can get and with the fact its randomized, it really solidifies the trial and error approach. My favourite aspect of the souls series was always the levels, but in ER, it clearly had the two states separated as opposed to the boss being a part of the level like Demons, Dark Souls 1 and 2.
>>723339386Does the nursing home staff know your posting here lmoa?
>>723339473Anon that's not bayle
>>723313584Rellana
>>723318254>I won't miss.
>>723333146I bet you also clap your feet together when your favorite marvel character shows up in a movie.
>>723339386Echoes had the best giant bosses.
>>723336946What the fuck is this? Is there a monster inside like with Ankha or is it a straight up robot?
>>723314997Thought he was annoying with his teleporting in and away and constant punishments for any attack on your part. After beating melania solo I couldn't be fucked and just used mimic tear and wiped him.
Both Daimon and Death are garbage fights. Neither of them pose any threat, except to your pawns, because they have cheap bullshit attacks that take advantage of the bad AI to send them back to the rift whenever they feel like it. All this serves to achieve is making fighting them a tedious chore — and tedium is BBIs modus operandi.
