7 Boss Fights You Dreaded the Most 

Bravely Default and Uoroboros the dungeon before hand is creepy as hell. Also the boss has 5 stages and can one shot you even at max Level. Also he's a cool boss that is hinted at halfway through the game.

I dont know if easly defeated but the mechanical bosses from terraria gives you some sort of creepy preview with the small words that appears at the start of the night

Dark Souls 2, The Pursuer. He's just freakout inducing hte first time you see him. You probably won't be able to kill him then either as he comes flying in on an eagle, wrecks you, and then makes you paranoid you'll see him again until the boss fight with him.

"Oh no, my bones!" 😨

Mister X the stalker or G or 5 stage freak from resident Evil 2.

Stupidly acurate

Kind of read this like the intro to fresh prince of bel-air...

But what's the weapon?

@@dragonsdream4236 A catapult probably...

@@dragonsdream4236 The undead curse, you're the ammunition in the sense of you're the thing being shoved at the Lords over and over again until they fall over.

Is she included in the DLC pack in Super Smash Bros Ultimate? O_O

@@LadyCoyKoi DLC? Oh-hoho, *no* -- she's one of the new additions to the core roster, no extra charge. And in the right hands, she's a rip-and-tearer to rival the best of 'em. (Just ask Snake.)

What about all the various horror mods for Animal Crossing? I remember a buddy telling me that in one of them She's a serial killer.

@@TheZoenGaming I don't count mods, personally -- they're about as canonical as that fan-made animation shown in the video (which, admittedly, is _weirdly_ adorable).

@@Nitrinoxus RIP AND TEAR!!!

It's the delivery and accent.

That's just what Ellen wants you to do so you run slower and get eaten instead of her

It made me laugh because it reminded me of roger's reaction (american dad) when steve deleted his episodes of bones

i beat this too and i was surprised i beat it i’m not good at games

Or soulsborne I dreaded every single fight that was coming up

But they look so cutesy lol I love that game

Yeah

@@widdershins5383 ikr? It's gave me the nostalgia feeling

He never faced her in Smash, I see...

Oh, I thought she said "appalling scenery", so I lined the walls with mirrors...

He doesn’t GIVE ptsd, HE IS ptsd

E1M1 isn't level music, It's boss music, but for the demons

You first have to break his shield with a specific gun while enemies are wrecking you then you have to break his little surf board or something and then shoot him and get his shield again while enemies are still eating away at your soul you then have to find a ton of fuel and when you finally kill him the priests spawns two more with even faster and stronger enemies and a lot more of them.

doomguy is the second coming of jesus christ

Doomguy is the holier jesus christ because Christ doesn't kill demons.

The latter was hysterical. Regarding the former, imagine Luke's terror when he realizes that Seath already knows their names.

Her right side is supposed to look like a beautiful elf while her left is a corpse

she's beautiful to me

Presumably this means that the “Ellen-arang” is in the shape of a mini Ellen which begs the question... how aerodynamic is an Ellen? 🤔

*she's going to on pain of ellenrang to the face.* WHAT!? Want to use English for this please?

@@hudsonball4702 don't attend any parties she's going to, on pain of ellenrang to the face. It won't make sense if you remove the first half of the clause. There's your issue.

Whoa, Black Betty (Ellen-arang)

Arancia Ghirga *uses all of your health potions to get through the normal enemies* “is this dungeon almost over?” *finds boss* “God damnit!”

*fork noises*

Also. When you're almost out of ammo and the boss music starts playing.

You didn’t even get to fight the boss, he had already killed you.

@@CyanKnight96 *terrified orange noises*

Wait, really? Didn’t even know that!

@@Ajehy Yeah. IIRC it abuses the elevator to that room to land someplace else. Speedrunners will use it to avoid the fight and auto death.

You can also just walk out of the first fight

Its called duke skio plenty of viedeos on youtube and a strat for no damage runs

@Ajehy yeah.... Duke skip actually isn't very easy to pull off. It requires precise movements, timing, and jumping. It's easier to eat the death and rez in the cage. I mean, if you really hate running to a boss door so much, you can try, but it took me a good 20-30 tries before I lucked into getting it and another 10-15 to understand the timing and movements. First you have to ride the elevator to the top. Then you have to send the elevator back down and jump onto the side rails of the elevator while its beginning to descend because you're usually not allowed to get onto them normally. Then you have to get into the corner and wait for a very specific spot to jump off and land on a platform in the library which is very easy to miss either landing on or timing the jump. If you do, you'll fall, most likely to your death, if not a substantial amount of health damage. Just eat the death and run through the mobs. It's way easier. Its just not FASTER which is why speedrunners do it. Unless they've found an easier way in the past few years since I stopped following DS1 speedruns, it's a massive pain.

Lol i remember finding it after and was like wtf? Wait I coulda avoided this??

Thank fuck I found this. Thanks for the information.

Plus, setting up some traps to slow it down. But you can still get the achievement for killing it on a second playthrough or killing it the third time it appears when you're searching for the paintings

Was thinking like that too🤣🤣🤣 Less dog more Necromorph🤣🤣🤣

The American Kennel Club doesn't screw around!

I don't know, I feel like it looks like a dog that got snatched by the swarm in Gears of War 4 and 5 and got turned into one.

Cerberus maybe

Rob M Britain’s weird

@@H-to-O 1 is definitely scarier and more fucked up, but 2 is the better game.

I think i might agree with people that say the first game was more scary because i got the second one first and im just over here like can i just shoot this thing already. But i was on causal and they do tend to give you bullets every 5 seconds so that might be why

I was a little disappointed that Nosk was not in this video, if they make a part two, I hope Nosk is in it.

"Oh boy, I can't wait to find out who this other knight guy is!" "..." *"Why did the door close behind me?"*

I absolutely adore the sheer number of boss doors Nosk's arena has; it gives you so much time to stew in the realization that you have *majorly* fucked up

Then he speaks and the voice of a Disney princess comes out because they didn't bring back George Newbern, and all the intimidation instantly disappears.

@@Veladus That was his actor's name (I had forgotten it)! And yes, new Seph doesn't sell me on "sexy and deadly", lol. Advent Children got it right.

Git gud and grind some more, scrub!

@@Ghalaghor_McAllistor Sephiroth is a cakewalk compared to Hellhouse in hard mode anyway.

It's that nostalgia catching up with you. I looked at Sephiroth with fear and awe...kind if wish i saw him later in the game but that first time you see him? 😨😨😨😨

The accurate way to beat darksouls with zero deaths: You don't

Try touhou instead....darksouls is child's play in comparison to touhou

How does that beat the game though?

Benny Fair fax not a norse God i assume?

I've heard of a few gamers who beat all three games without even getting hit, so it's not impossible

💯

Oh yeah I remember the Broodmother from Origins and the "Mother" from Awakening, pretty fucked up backstories they have don't they?

“First day, they come and catch everyone. Second day, they beat us and eat some for meat. Third day, the men are all gnawed on again. Fourth day, we wait and fear for our fate. Fifth day, they return and it's another girl's turn. Sixth day, her screams we hear in our dreams. Seventh day, she grew as in her mouth they spew. Eighth day, we hated as she is violated. Ninth day, she grins and devours her kin. Now she does feast, as she's become the beast. Now you lay and wait, for their screams will haunt you in your dreams. ”

I came to say this. I only really play BioWare games but the dread leading up to the broodmother was palpable. I feel only a few degree less the same for the ogre. The intro cut scene plus the difficulty of the fight itself ==> fear.

Citizens: please don't smear my organs all over it..... Nemesis: can't promise

Nemesis: STARS!

I bet Nemesis felt it was too dirty actually, and best way to solve that, no more wall.

OMG SAME

Oh my GOD :O Btw, I still have the PLAYABLE DEMO DISC after all these years. XD

Have you heard of enter the gungoun?

They mentioned him in the bosses you could only run from

This game needs to be remade. Silent Hill...anything. Truly the stuff of nightmares...

Doom Hunter

Especially if you did the dlc before meeting sif, the cutscene is heart wrenching

That's a different kind of dread, methinks...

@@therealfriday13th - yeah. If you go into it spoiler-free, you don’t know the sadness that’s in store. Not sure which is worse, really…

The most impactful and emotional, for sure. I would want to say Artorias, because if you read the item descriptions as you play, there are many references to him, his loyalty and prowess. Coming face to face with him to see him completely consumed by the Abyss was one of my favorite moments in gaming. I'm not sure he would work in this list because you aren't anticipating the fight before hand.

Pro Tip: You don't have to fight them if you just call in sick again.

Just throw a batarang at their face; worked for Ellen!

Use the secret weapon, a forged doctor's note!

Noob. You must have been a bad liar to get busted by your boss

should have invested points in being sexy

Exactly what I was thinking. All that build up just made me more excited to kill it!

I just kept asking myself "Do i have enough ammo for this thing to break?". I wasnt afraid when i saw it's assembly and Deag Renak's boasting about it

I was actually like "oh shit, it's stefano valenteni" in the evil within 2. Turns out you can dodge all his attacks very easily and kill him in your first run. And it turns out... killing Stefano makes the simulation even MORE UNSTABLE. Killing a main antagonist does the opposite of a good thing. Great, you killed stefano: now everything's on fucking fire!

And the Kahn Makyr

Yes but you miss one little detail................YOU THE DOOM KILLR!

You kidding right ? The E.M.M.I.s are absolutely borring. Even worse, the first encounter with one have you realize from the start that those can be killed and as a result, every new encounter with a E.M.M.I is less threatening because it just becomes easier and easier to avoid then destroy them. And even worse, if you have already played a game with an ennemy of this kind, the kind that follows you around and you cannot kill, especially if it was done better in a better game, randomly example, Metroid Fusion, the E.M.M.I.s really just feel like big easily avoidable robots.

At first, @@MrLednard þe E.M.M.I. are terrifying, especially on þe first play þrough, but on oþer play þroughs, þey become easier to deal wiþ. Plus, I've actually played dread, and þe E.M.M.I. often scare me shitless. Every time I go near a door, þe robot near instantly jumpscares me and boom, dead. Yes þe E.M.M.I. can be killed, but not wiþin þirty seconds of þe first encounter (minus þe damaged one, it's barely a þreat). Þe E.M.M.I. follow you near relentlessly and are actually invincible until you get þe omega cannon. Þe SA-X is actually defeatable, and if you rack up enough damage, she just stops, plus þe chase A.I. is very crappy. Have you tried getting þrough an E.M.M.I. on dread mode wiþout a single deaþ? It's harder þan diamonds. A single scratch is enough to kill you, þe E.M.M.I. can take more damage þan a Leaman Russ tank (lol, 40K referance). Or maybe you're just a crazy good speed runner who was traumatised by þe SA-X as a kid. I don't play MD enough to find every sequence break or abuse þe E.M.M.I.'s programming, because I happen to not be terminally online. Play Metroid Dread on a new game wiþ dread mode, clear it, þen tell me how easy þe notably hard game is, and flaunt your inability go outside and to interact wiþ oþers. Sounds depressing. Maybe try þinking before posting. By þe way, it's spelt E-N-E-M-Y not E-N-N-E-M-Y. TL;DR, get a life, and don't ague uselessly wiþ someone on þe internet, you þerapy starved, overconfident, turd eating, flaw sniffing, green-eyed guinea pig.

KayleyAnna. It took me 100 hours. They hyped up the fact that he was supposedly super powerful and that, plus the ton of guardians, was enough to have me ignoring the castle completely. The only reason I ever actually went inside was because I really wanted the memory inside. And afterwards it still took me ages to actually get the nerve to fight Ganon himself. The fight itself was a bit of a letdown, tbh.

@@aerenofgondor I haven't either. Thunderblight is not that bad if you use stasis on him, but a lot of people don't realize you can do that.

Nah, I'd say the Imprisoned has him beat. You get to play through the "fun" boss three times before properly beating him

random guy . I’d agree but you technically “beat” him. I haven’t played skyward sword, so I apologize if I’m missing something, however a beatable boss i fight 3 times doesn’t really fill me with dread. Unless it’s because of how often I have to fight it. Calamity on the other hand, has 2 cutscenes and a memory showing home “powerful” it is. The king even tells you it would be stupid to head straight to the castle. NPCs tell you no one has come back from the castle. Pure theatrics, but it still made me avoid the place like the plague.

Isn’t that kind of the point? You’re supposed to get all of the divine beasts or whatever first, aren’t you?

Sewer you dreading him more than Scarecrow? Turns out his dream escapes were just strawmen before Croc took care of him for you!

I was genuinely fearing this boss fight, they did a brilliant job building him up. Shame they clearly wanted to knock off early and get to the pub when it got to the actual fight.

@@SapphireDragon357 the sheer force of my nasal exhale just leveled a small city. I hope you're happy...

@@SapphireDragon357 the sheer force of my nasal exhale just leveled a small city. I hope you're happy...

*Offscreen boo*

Same here. I just got impatient

Well, technically you're not a bug, you're a vessel, but that's an interesting thought. Also I agree with you 100 percent, Nosk should be in this video.

And that Nosk had to get all those masks from somewhere…

I refuse to call it a boss because of my sheer HATE for The BoC. It's a freaking bug under a tree thing, and it instakills you by swiping you into a freaking crevice in the ground. Sure, the lore is great and all, but it felt less like a boss fight and more like "PLEASE DON'T KILL ME WITH THE ENVIRONMENT, PLEASE GOD, NOOOO!!!" for the whole fight. Either way, it gives the player MASS DREAD to say the least.

Yeah the seath really confusesd me. I would say BoC and Manus are the most scary for dark souls 1.

Its not about what boss is the worst, its about the boss that gets built up a ton in game and makes you dread it. Your dread of BoC is more OOC dread than in game dread.

chris hubbard well, seath isn’t really a fight you dread I find, even on a first playthrough. Getting to laurence or to to ludwig I find is more dreadful, as they are the hunters you’ve heard about all game. The orphan is also pretty dreaded, because it’s so built up to, with much of the talk about great ones centred around kos

@cringus true XD

Then you realize the tonberries are very easy to knockoff before they get a turn. If you have it also give Aerith the limit break accessory to cast Planet Protection as much as possible. Keep Hell House poisoned at all times. The Cutters are actually harder to take down than the Tonberries

Nightmare would have been good too.

Great pick! There are so many brilliant ways she/it was introduced to us. Easily the creepiest gameboy game.

Oh god

Jedi Spartan 38 That Darth Vader fight was awesome

What about Jackal sniper #22472918?

Never seen The Force Unleashed played past the Temple. I wonder what it's like (dreams in poor Star Wars gamer fan)

Well actually for The Force Unleashed I would list Palpatine as the boss with mounting dread for the battle against. Though this comes with me having the unique experience of getting and playing the Nintendo DS version before getting and playing the Xbox 360 version. The DS version makes you do this minigame to block force lightning from Palpatine that is literally impossible. Beating the light side ending in the Xbox version was my first time actually getting to see the end cutscene for it.

I'll be honest: when I played FF7 (PS1), my fight with Sephiroth seemed so easy I had wondered if I accidentally glitched it or something. I remember thinking, "Oh man, final battle, here go! Gosh I hope I'm ready!" Then I got into the fight, cast a couple buffs, and then "Knights of the Round". I forget if it was like twin-cast, or quad-cast, or whatever (it was a long time ago). By the time it finished resolving, it queued straight to the cutscene, and I was like "Wait....THAT WAS IT?!"

Yeah i relate to this with vanilla persona 5 final boss

The three bosses I'm scared of in hollow knight:Sly,Nightmare King Grimm,Pure Vessel.

Iirc I spent that boss fight confused as much as anything, because there wasn't really anything else overtly supernatural in that game so I just kept wondering how it fit in thematically and whether it was going to lead to anything else.

@@neolexiousneolexian6079 yeah

She was still hard because she keeps moving and the undead won't stop coming until you kill her and she's resistant to so many things. If you can't tell, I don't like her very much.

@@EmbyrKhenPyre oh yeah...i still don't know how to kill her (i just recently started playing)

I kinda ignored them for most of the time and got close to Elizabeth’s ghost mother.... and proceeded to shoot her with a shotgun several times. I somehow didn’t die I think

Which is kind most games really. You never have any boss fights, every enemy you fight is the one fighting the boss:D

IT'S NO USE!

TAKE THIS!

THANK YOU

Capra Demon's not that hard, and the narrow area makes it easier to drop attack him to death

@@deathbykonami5487 I've only died to him once in my like 6 playthroughs. It's still a clusterfuck that makes most people panic

@@dawsonwilliams546 I think the most difficult things about the Capra demon are dogs and the arena and those GODDAMN THIEVES IN THE RUN BACK

Most games I play have very small or hard to navigate boss areas.

@@PhantomLily1677- there's a shortchut

Oh that's a good example. I was afraid of the Archdemon until I realised Ser Cauthrien was actually tougher and I'd got her good already.

@@mikoto7693 I mean I can nearly 1 shot Ser Cautherien with my level 25 arcane blood mage, using Death Mark Death Cloud Combo. When I use that on the Archdemon it tickles him for less than 500 damage when I was hitting 10+k on everything else.

I rarely die fighting the Archdemon, Morrigan is quite helpful there

The Elder One in _DA:I_ was also an absolute nightmare for me. I always play on the hardest or second hardest difficulties in games, but I eventually had to concede defeat and lower the difficulty a little just to get to the final round of destroying that piece of shit. I wound up with just one mage still conscious, cowering in fear behind any bit of cover I could find, darting out only to aim a spell at his face. And that took three hours and a ragequit.

I honestly preferred the Archdemon to the Broodmother. That is a boss I definitely dread having to face (it's not difficult really, I just dread it, especially with Hespith's creepy rhyme). And I only get those vibes with the one from the main game, not even from the Mother in the Awakening DLC and she's nuttier than squirrel poo.

Yeah, I didnt find the air buster that hard on normal

Dino Bro thanks for this. Now I’ve got a brand new thing to fear in my dreams. Teleporting dinosaurs.

The funniest bit is that at least half the players forgot about Alduin for a good 30 hours. Became vampire hunter, bards or wizard, bought a house and tasted giant's toes. Then they remember that they were supposed to save the world and they two shot the World-Eater with their over-leveled ass ...

@@amineelyoussoufi4371 that is every rpg for me. And even some action games that allow you to upgrade or level up. Do every side quest/ objective. Become completely overpowered. Wreck the main story when I finally get around to it. I realize it's my own fault because of my playstyle, but it would be nice if more games would adopt a difficulty scale dependent upon your level. I play games at normal difficulty, and only any harder if it's a series I'm excellent at, like gears of war. I can't just ratchet up the difficulty to get around this issue, because as much as I love games, I'm far from great at them. So in a lot of games I'm stuck between way too easy or way too hard. But like I said, my playstyle, my fault.

@@anusface2 I think only RPG that didn't fall prey to that is Dragon Age: Origins. When when I had my level 25 arcane blood mage 1 shoting mini bosses with the Death Mark and Death Cloud combo; while using Spell Wisp and maxing out as much Spell Power as I can with Gear. I could only hit a measly 450 on the Archdemon, while hitting 10k+ on just about everything else.

@@Nogard-Nys I borrowed that from a friend way back when. At least I think it was origins, it was definitely a dragon age game. But unfortunately I ended up giving it back without really ever scratching the surface of it. I've heard nothing but good things about it.

What's hilarious is they didn't bother making him immune to Mehrune's Razor. Literally 2 hits and he died for me.

Yeah, I was more excited than anything. No dread here.

it was easy first try on nightmare

And then once you go down the corridor into his boss room, there's a series of actually dead corpses whose dying thoughts you can read. And also all the strung up victims in his boss room. Too bad he's actually a pushover.

The whole of deepest is just a, do I have to in order to play this game.... damn I do don’t i

He's also large enough to fill up the screen, uncomfortably fast, and has an instant-kill grab. The first time I fought him, I hadn't even picked up the rifle from the solarium - I just had to make do with a basic pistol and shotgun. The whole "don't shoot, I'm human" thing was an unsettling touch, too. Resident Evil doesn't seem to do that much outside of the Revelations games.

I play quite a few horror games, but this put an end to my Arkham asylum play lol

Hate to say he just pissed me off he attacked my favorite villain I just want him to die.

Then when you go back to the sector to fight it, you see that it completely tore through all the wall, wrecking havoc on all the freezers flooding everything.

Plus, that thing just gets more horrifying the more the fight goes on. First there's green goo seeping out of its face mask, then you blow the mask off and learn that its entire face is green goo!

I think the SA-X also qualifies

@@ZeldaTheSwordsman you're absolutely right.

ZeldaTheSwordsman that feeling you get when you enter a room and the only sounds are metallic footsteps and your own heartbeat.
