Here are some rules for Soulsborne bosses: - If you think you are done, you aren't. - The more human-sized the enemy, the more scared you should be. - The real fight doesn't begin until the music has at least three choirs and two orchestras blasting at max volume.
Ain Dania It sucks too because the powers in Infamous Second Son were really cool. I just want more of that universe. Also while we’re at it can we get another Prototype game? I’m not quite done with my game of toddler shot put yet.
well it does seem the time between games in getting larger since it was only a 3 year gap from 2 to second son with first light a few months after in the same year yeah but it could be we will get one of the best conduits/bio terrorist sucker punch has dropped
@@sirapple589 I thought the powers were pretty disappointing in second son, bar the unique movements each power gave. You got 4 different power sets but altogether you weren't really doing much more than Cole with just one power.
As someone who lives in Colorado and knows the governor's kids, I think replacing a senator who turned out to be an evil, semi-invincible cyborg and was defeated by a super-powered cyborg ninja and his dog would be the sort of thing Governor Polis would love to take on. I can confirm that his kids (once told a more rated-G version of the story) would think it was the most epic thing EVER.
I like how the player in the Dark Souls 3 video used my age old Dark Souls strategy of "Summon someone and let them either do all the work or tank the boss."
Armstrong has a REALLY funny weakness when fighting him in the crater. Simply run around him and take his health down little by little by using dash attacks.
I've stepped on a rake and had it come up and hit me in the face like a Looney Toons character. As I writhed in pain, I found it anything but funny but I can look back and laugh now :)
It is amazing how calm Leon is. A tiny man is threatening to kill him with his second in command and Romo or whatever, calling it his right hand and Leon just says "Your right hand comes off?". And earlier on in Resi 4 he's in a town with no signs of life anywhere and just says "Where's everyone gone? Bingo?".
The bingo line of course comes AFTER being mobbed by what feels like a hundred angry villagers with hatchets and pitchforks, as well as one particular guy with a chainsaw.
@@davidmoberly8037 If I think about it... The moment you awake in the cemetery of ash, you immediately get attacked by hollows. So... I think that Lothric itself doesn't want you there.
@@davidmoberly8037 I was making a joke about how in games by that developer it's usually a good idea not to mess with the world as it exists because that usually makes things worse. That's all.
which is a shame cause Infamous Second Son and it's spinoff First Light weren't bad games True you weren't playing as Cole MacGrath and you didn't have electricity powers, but Delsin Rowe was a good replacement (he at least should've clicked with the hipster crowd...who's gonna shame him when he can throw fireballs, summon swords from tv screens, and neon turns him into deadly marksman)
Elijah Dowsett if Flowey was the one who made you wonder, you must not have played Doom, blood and gore at its best in pixelated form! I remember all the flesh mounds laying around, with their ribs looking like demon jaws reaching up from the ground to eat you
My party taking on my wife's character who came back from the dead: "She's a low level druid. It can't be that bad..." Me and my paladin character, who've watched her building her new death knight for a full fucking month: ".... Can I go fight the dragon and his necromancer buddy instead?"
You joked about Dark Souls having several working names but they did reject the names Dark Ring (for obvious reasons) and Dark Race (for even more obvious reasons).
@@FromBeyondTheGrave1 SuckerPunch is already working on a different project, though. A massive one, and they haven't said anything about planning to return to InFamous
While I'm glad you included The Guardian Ape from Sekiro, you guys missed his ultimate form when you fight him in a cave and he's been transformed by the ultimate power: Friendship!
@@herec0mestheCh33f I think the Ape + Wife fight is fine. By the time you get there, you already know how the enemies work, plus they each have only one healtbar and firecrackers work well.
@@waveburner1254 oh it's balanced fine I agree. I'm just bad at it right now I hated the Ashina Cross miniboss a lot more cause I could never parry the attack properly no matter how I timed it (ended up cheesing him with poison)
@@herec0mestheCh33f Do whatever helps you to beat these hard af games. I don't judge you. I mean, I just slaughtered Rom the Vacuous Spider in Bloodborne in 40 seconds or so. That was funny. Oh, it was NG+2 so... Yeah.
I’ve got a new suggestion; from Monster Hunter World’s Iceborne expansion: Shara Ishvalda. It goes from large, lumbering and covered in stone to a gross looking yellow dragon that shoots beams out of its wings.
After getting the chance to get the tommy gun in re 4 I farmed as much as I could just to kill him faster cuz that voice almost made me grow the wii control at the tv
I thought the final boss aka. “The devil” from Dantes inferno was tough as hell to beat until you finally put him down only for him to come back as a much stronger, shorter, and very well endowed boss man that really tries to bend you over and give it to ya in the worst kind of way. He’s one bad dude that you definitely don’t want to get into a.... attitude measuring contest with. Yeah, that’s it, attitude.
Yunalesca in FFX. If it's your first time fighting her you won't know she uses mega-death when her second phase is defeated. So if you've been healing the zombie status throughout the fight you'll get an instant game over. And of course then you have to sit through that long ass cutscene again too.
Nah, very first time I played her got stupid lucky and didn't really understand the zombie thing fully but somehow had enough ppl zombified so I switched back and forth and managed to kill her. Aurons speech was no joke.....but replaying after a long time I would get caught by that shit sometimes.
Did anyone ever realize that "Haste" stacks in dragon age: origins? The game was so ridiculously easy when you have 3 arcane warriors and a thief (for locks really) and everybody is hitting like 5 times a second with the full might of the fade behind them.
@@murasakinokami9882 I guess I never did mod that game. I would like to see a video on strategies and exploits that blow a game's difficulty out of the water like buff stacking in dragon age: origins.
@@sawyer7560 kingdom of amalur reckoning. If you focused on blacksmith you could make a full armor set that reduces the damage you take and eventually make it so you take zero damage
I died a lot in Dragon Age if playing a non mage character till I figured out those mechanics. Aside from mods to remove the dog barking in camp (so annoying) and to add storage chests in camp I never bothered adding anything else to the game. I still think it’s the best game ever.
I NEVER got tired of seeing videos of people beating the Guardian Ape only to freak out when a shambling headless ape starts swinging its sword that you used to decapitate it.
I know Father Gascoigne was on another list, but he fits the criteria perfectly First Form: Standard Hunter that attacks with an axe and a blunderbuss Second Form: Extends axe to its polearm form and occasionally uses the blunderbuss Third Form: Transforms into Werewolf Hulk and goes completely berserk
You’re one of the few channels where I feel like I can like any video before watching it because I know I’ll enjoy it and eventually get lost in my recommended videos being nothing but your lists. I genuinely think that you cannot make a bad video if you tried. I mean seriously, you could make “7 most gruesome circumcisions” and I’d still watch it.
JH Sand151 I’m gonna be honest, I know it doesn’t count but I’m just thinking of that scene from Outlast Whistleblower where the Groom is trying to turn males into females via violent castrations. Christ that was horrifying.
Flemeth got me too the first time I played Origins... and I agree about the sensible top for Morrigan. I keep throwing that outfit away and somehow she keeps finding it and putting it back on
im surprised no one has mentioned Majora from Majora’s Mask at first its just an evil living mask made of wood but then when you fight it at the end of the game it goes through 3 transformations each one more creepy then the last
This little girl in Conker's Bad Fur Dad turns out to be a Master to a giant Cyborg Teddy's blaster, put them together and it's Master Blaster (at least it reminded me of Thunderdome). Two squirrels enter, one squirrel leaves 🤣
It's so weird hearing Andy talk about Colorado Governor Jared Polis when I, as a 20 year old Colorado native who still can't vote yet, couldn't even remember the dude's name. Although who could blame me, our last governor was named John Hickenlooper, and that was way more memorable. Also because nothing happens in Colorado... Ever.
One of my favorite things about your videos is the various ways you describe what Dark Souls is. It’s never enough to just say “it’s hard and you die a lot”, you always have to give the funniest descriptions 😆
My own first moment with this variety of boss was Larkeicus of the Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles series. My first thought about him was, “Yipee, the old librarian wants to help us save the world!” Then he pulls the old “Actually, I’m going to wreck you with magic now because I’m here to end the world.” And immediately I thought “Why can’t old people ever be cool and powerful in games?” Then he almost kills our mom. I still don’t know why he’s a favorite character of mine.
@@jeremiahthepisces5493 The photo choice is obviously an official photo. So any web search for "governor of Colorado" would give it up. First hit is probably either the official website, or Wikipedia. *tests theory* Yup, Wikipedia. :p
@@jeremiahthepisces5493 They get cool points because I like that someone on the team decided to actually look up who a governor is to add to a joke when nobody had to look up or add that information into the video. I love that they decide to put that extra effort into their jokes.
Another good example is Yunalesca from Final Fantasy 10. She was a real monster, and her instant death attack part way through the fight was a guaranteed game-over first time around.
While not a TRANSFORMING boss, a certain boss from Hades comes to mind when it comes to regretting cockiness. One that makes you go from "Oh, HAH, it's just a tiny rat! What could it possibly do to me?" to "WHAT THE *LITERAL* HELL IS THIS THING AND HOW DO I STOP IT CHEWING MY FACE OFF!?!?"
I like how you censored the word "fuck" in Armstrongs dialogue but left the scene with Raiden ripping his heart out and crushing it completly untouched.
I'm not gonna lie that fight took me 2 attempts only because the surprise of the stage two, after the the hype and spoilers I avoided I was actually kinda disappointed
@@waveburner1254 I know about it now but it being an optional boss I haven't actually done it if in being honest I'm stuck as fuck on the easy ending lol
Another boss for this list could be Avalon from Legaia 2: Duel Saga, a criminally underrated PS2 game with some of the hardest minigames of all time. He goes from your standard RPG human to well... winged and gargantuan over the course of the fight~
Had a Bee in my Jacket recently. Can confirm I moved the same way as the Guardian Ape. And then it came back to sting me in the neck. Does that count as a Final Boss? ...At least I beat it without dying for once.
Aw, that's awful :/ My mom once had a wasp sneak attack and stung her big toe right when she walked outside in sandals. I really hope the bastard died afterwards.
A seemingly invulnerable death machine that thrives off of trauma and takes an exhausting amount of time to defeat stopping you from progressing...sounds like the usual middle aged American senator to me
Ooh, I expected you to add the next monkey fight too Me playing Sekiro: Finally i killed this f-word monkey. Wait, why are you getting up? Nononono, put that sword back on the ground. And the head. 1h later: why is the monkey here again? 30 deaths later: wait, why are 2 big af monkeys on my screen now?? I literally turned off my console and did not play Sekiro for 3 days 😂
If you think on it, you are the bad guy. You roll up to this guy's pool where he's protecting his pretty flower, and you decapitate him and steal his flower. Then you hunt him down to his home to bully him some more. His wife shows up, and then you murder her in front of him. Yeah, bet you feel pretty bad now... nor totally not for how many times he killed you.
@@jennifervalentine8955 that's not the worst you do, you actually cause the fall of Ashina: You kill big horse boi and stupid bull, so you leave the castle without their stronger defense. Then you kill all those soldiers and generals, creating an open path for the ministery guys to walk through. Finally you kill Geni and Isshin, their best fighters (Isshin dies anyway if u don't, so same). You also kill canned head who was protecting the temple in order to help his son Robertooooooooooooooooooo and a monk who is guarding some sacredish place, as well as an actual dragon god. You stress the f out of the sculptor until he turns to a Dark Souls style demon and also kill him. And more. You actually fk everything up to save that little guy of yours hahahaha
14:38 I remember that boss fight. I was pretty cocky since I hardly struggle due to grinding so much. When I fought Flemeth, Alistair was the only one left and I was struggling really hard that I was afraid, oh so afraid. I won in the end though.
Nancy Lo Eh. It was tough before I realized I had multiple ranged allies and a wizard who could make me immortal for a short time and heal me, as well as a stockpile of healing potions due to basically making either Leliana or myself a potion brewery with the levels. At that point, two bows, a spell caster, and one girl with two pointy sticks it was easier than fighting dark spawn horde.
Soooo I stumbled upon their videos just doing some video game searchin', and started watching this one because I was interested. I wasn't gonna subscribe because I just don't think about it, however, they were so damm funny with the commentary I'm DEFINITELY subscribing now. Love how it's not just another video to watch about video games, but they ACTUALLY have funny commentary. Yea, I'm definitely a fan of this channel now! Thank you 🙏💕 .
What about the final boss of Sekiro (spoilers) It’s a guy you’ve beaten twice and this time he’s even easier, but once you beat him he gives up and kills himself to summon his recently dead grandfather to fight you, a grandfather who happens to be the strongest boss in the game. Also Sekiro is kind of weird
So long as the title isn't "weakest bosses" or "underwhelming bosses" or something similar, any boss list could easily just be filled with From Software bosses
I don't think so. There are some exceptions. Vordts looks intimidating but he's a pushover. The Moonlight Butterfly looks beautiful, but it's a pushover. And then... Pinwheel. Nuff said.
I loved Tinker Knight. His first form is so puny, I knew he would bust out with a giant mech. Once I figured out how to attack his second form, he was easy-peasy.
7:29 “…Yes, what was once a frail old dude is now a freaking Gears of War boss, and I don’t know about you, but I left my Hammer of Dawn in my other messenger bag.” Lovely description.
Guardian Ape second phase was easier. Isshin Sword Saint on the other hand... Another boss that comes in mind is the second boss from Serious Sam: Second Encounter - biomech thingy
It was, relatively speaking, easy to figure out. But this probably comes off has shocking when the thing you killed comes back, headless, wielding a sword and moving creepily with an eerie music playing.
My pick from Sekiro's most terrifying transforming, or in this case surprising, bosses isn't so much a transforming boss, but rather one boss sacrificing himself to summon another guy back from death. "Sword Saint Isshin," or "Isshin: Sword Saint". You think this is a final one on one with Genichiro for the fate of Kuro, until he decides he can't win and decides to forfeit his life to call on his now resurrected grandfather for help...and oh boy does his grandpa deliver. I am of the firm opinion that the 'Interior Ministry' didn't send it's army to deal with the battered and bruised Ashinan's, but rather to make sure that one of the soldiers they sent managed to kill the old,sick, and frail Isshin (Spoilers for the Shura route: He ain't so frail), out of fear of just what he could do if he had been made immortal by the rejuvenating sediment...a wise move on their part. I don;t think he counts a transforming boss, but he is still my pick for a surprise boss that utterly thrashed me for several days before I finally beat him. Here is hoping he doesn't come back again in any DLC they add.
