Only unfair thing he did was disable your skyward strike. If you ask Fi for advice she’ll directly tell you that Demise put a magical barrier in place so you couldn’t skyward strike. (In the remake version idk about the original). Though I do agree, I loved how he gives you a moment to prepare. Though I think it’s mainly done out of cockiness. Since he sees Link (you) as a mir weak mortal.

One other thing I love about ghirahim fights is the player/link's progression. I imagine first time players are just getting the hang of the motion controls, but are hardly experts. The fact that ghirahim in phases one and two can steal your sword if you get caught in his defense too long is a brilliant moment of fear and confusion as you feel totally powerless. By the second fight the player has gotten to a point where the fight is challenging, but you're more on equal ground. By the end you feel like a master as you've slaughtered around a hundred bokoblins and are now overwhelming him as you as a player have mastered the blade.

Use a single down swing then do a spin attack downward, that'll make the fight a lot quicker. The Imprisoned doesn't have to be a slow-as-a-slug boss fight where you just keep hitting his toes until he dies. Trust me.

@@-SourStrawberry- : Yeah, Ghirahim is an excellent example of what I like in a villain with a crazy personality: A weird or wild exterior, but with the skill and brutality to BACK IT UP. I can never really get into villains when I feel like I'm expected to be so afraid of this weird/wacky/sly/cutesy character that only ends up being a threat because the story says so. Whether it's BS magic, lots of goons or tech to do the work for them, or some other reason why the plot says they get to do whatever they want, it just falls flat when it feels like they aren't genuinely smart or tough enough to back up their (usually) overconfident attitude, and ending them feels less like a satisfying victory than finally crushing an annoying bug. That feeling generally bleeds into their actual boss fights too, making them more annoying than intimidating to deal with. Ghirahim is an example of this done RIGHT. His battle animations really sell his skill and make him feel like a threat. His character can turn on a dime from flamboyance to business and even feels convincing when he's in his early phases and just toying with Link. I didn't expect someone like him from the Zelda series, but I'm extremely happy to see that expectation quashed. :D

Personally, I put Demise above Koloktos. As much as Koloktos is pretty much the Platonic ideal of a mid-game Zelda boss, the imagery and symbolism of the duel with Demise really push it over the top. It's literally a primeval battle of the gods, the origin myth for the entire rest of the series, and quite fittingly, the fight itself looks and feels like the kind of thing a primitive tribe might imagine to explain the chaotic power of a raging thunderstorm.

I find it interesting that Demise uses lightning the same way that Link uses the energy of the goddess/master sword.

They’re clearly connecting the two ideas.

The game very simply teaches you how to defeat the tentacles, provides what feels like a high-pressure situation of fleeing the sinking ship, before you finally get out on the deck and have to use what you've learned to defeat it. it may not be particularly challenging for a boss(hence why I always choose it first during the boss rush) but it does a great job of introducing the mechanic and then letting you have at it. It could do with looking or feeling scarier after that run through the ship, but overall, I like Tentalus a lot.

The amount of restraint from Zeltik to not draw any comparisons to Breath of the Wild to sell the game to his very Zelda fans is astonishing (though tbf it's probably written in bold with huge letters in the clause of the sponsorship: DONT MENTION BOTW LOL) Either way, for anyone that's desperately waiting for BotW2, you're doing yourself a disservice by not playing Genshin Impact. Teyvat has the same vibe as Hyrule in being littered with useless, repetitive little rewards and puzzles that somehow still grab your attention and make you go off the beaten path for them, as well as being a massive region filled with lore and strange stuff that leaves you thinking "wtf happened here" That said, it's more story driven, so there will be some areas that are locked behind certain amount of progress, but you can explore SO MUCH after the first few intro cutscenes that it's likely not going to bother you at all.

I always thought Scaldera was super cool looking and a fun fight. He looks straight out of a Ghibli film for me. I'm surprised you ranked him lower than Tentalus. Personally he'd be in the top half for me.
@Gaster601
@Gaster601 2 года назад
I guess that's the problem. When one thinks about Zelda bosses, one would not think about ghibli monsters. Usually the bosses are more grim looking and much more creative from a design point. Off course there are some bosses who fall flat on their asses (like tentalus aka "the Monsters Inc. lady" or that amorphous blob from OOT in the water temple) but still, a firey ball isn't what I would call a memorable boss. Even the boss fight is extremely easy and that only helps making the boss forgettable.

I personally don't think his design is bad, he just feels like a mid dungeon boss. He also doesn't look overly threatening for a dungeon boss. I think that was a big turn off for me for skyward sword is that it's trying to be cartoonie but handles darker more "realistic" moments so much better than it does the goofy. It creates a polarizing feeling of not understanding the tone they were going for. especially when we already had windwaker that handles it better as it keeps it's tone consistent, keeping a fun and silly surface with some dark undertones.

Also the Imprisoned himself might be slow, but if anything his fights end up being some of the fastest in the game since you just have to hit his spike 3 times instead of whittling down an invisible health bar.

It's cool to learn the Ghirahim & Imprisoned fights can be done in different ways. I always just hacked away at the toes until it fell and didn't know you could just jump on top of him. On the final stage of Ghirahim, you can stun him by swatting his sword three times to the left making him "drop" it and then attack. And against his big sword I kept having a hard time doing "enough damage quickly" until I realized you can strike it slowly in the proper direction (there's literally an arrow highlighting where to strike) and be more effective.

to be fair, it is nothing new to the series. It is easy to forget that the staple enemies like darknuts often serve as minibosses long before they become abundant, high tier enemies one rank below miniboss. Heck, WW has moblins as a "boss" due to their appearance in dragon roost cavern, but by the time the master sword is in play, they become the second most dangerous reoccurring enemy, just behind darknuts who also act as the miniboss of the tower of gods. Then look at minish cap's approach to bosses. Every single boss in a dungeon you have to enter in minish form is just a regular enemy that needs to be fought in a new way with the shrinkage of link and his sword.

I feel like a lot of great ideas were unfortunately ruined because Nintendo didn't _want_ to take them seriously. In their lingering desire to market the Wii to everyone while sales were beginning to decline, they were skeptical of making anything too unsettling, and felt the need to balance anything frightening with something goofy... Or at least that's my theory. Maybe some people preferred that, but the more dedicated Zelda fans mostly end up feeling let down by how epic the fight could have been. I just wonder what Tentalus or the Imprisoned would look like if they were designed during the development of Twilight Princess, when Nintendo aired on the side of taking it more seriously. I suppose it just shows how TP and SW represent two different sides of the Zelda series despite their similarities.

I still find it hilarious (and infuriating) that they tried to market the Wii to everyone, yet when making this game, they did nothing to make the game fair to play for left-handed players; instead only making the game with right-handed players in mind, despite Link himself being left-handed in almost every game. The Switch version not bothering to add a left-handed mode for the motion controls, however, isn't funny at all; just infuriating.

It's dark sure, in terms of colour pallet, and there are some relatively bleak scenes like the resistance and so on, but with a couple of minor exceptions, there was nothing that really got the heart going. For me, the scariness peaked with OOT. MM was creepy and disturbing at times, but more in the "OMG this is awesome" way, rather than the "OMG I can't bare to look in the next room" way. Part of that might be the age I played OOT, but most of it, I feel, is that creepiness/scares are about the way you deliver the scare as much as the design itself.

If you want to charge up the Skyward strike while fighting Demise you have to wait for his 3 stages of attacks. You will know its the last attack when he swings downward. After the last attack he will let out his lightning. Then from there you step away from him and quickly raise your sword. He will charge at you but you should have enough time to let out the lightning strike before he hits you. It just makes the fight faster.

Personally, my fave boss fights are Ghirahim's, since he's my fave character in the game, but the order might not seem usual. You'd assume the least favorite is the 1st, then the 2nd, then the best being the 3rd. My order is actually 1 being the fave, 3 being the 2nd and 2 being the least favorite. The 1st fight is my favorite because when I first played it, I was freaked out and his personality was both awesome, but unsettling enough to make me run away from him for most of the fight, so it really made the character stick in my mind for the rest of the game. The 3rd is my next favorite because I finally got to see his final form (aside from his form where he's just a blade, but a form that can actually move and talk) and it provided a really cool fight on top of that, but his personality wasn't as freaky to me as it was before. His 2nd fight is my least favorite of his fights, but my 3rd favorite in the game over all because 2 blades. That's it. 2 blades at once, showing that he can use both hands equally in a fight, so it shows that if he lost a hand or arm for whatever reason, he'd still be a really good fighter compared to someone who can't really work well with their non dominant hand. Which kinda made me relate to him a bit because while my left hand is considered my dominant hand, I prefer to use my right hand for the physical things such as throwing balls while my left is mainly used for writing and drawing, but can still be used for more physical activities pretty well if my right arm gets tired. So, unfortunately, the battle with demise isn't in my top 3, but at least he's my 4th. Ghirahim makes *all* of my top 3 because of how his character stuck with me, so I just enjoyed getting to see him on screen at all, so when I fought him, he stayed on the screen longer on top of giving a good fight.

Something I love about each Skyward Sword Boss Battle I’ve done: Ghirahim 1: Perfect starting boss, if only incredibly difficult for most people the first time. The sword-stealing ability was a nice, new ability that totally threw new players off. It was pretty hard to avoid often, especially on Wii. Scaldera: Basically King Dodongo but ROCK. What sets the two apart though is that with King Dodongo, he swallows a mob and then you just slash, but you have to actually aim your strikes at Scaldera whilst trying to not get burned. Moldarach: Blasting away the floor to find him is good, but I really loved the defensive mechanisms of his weak spots the most. Between closing the pincers, changing their position and just snapping at you or hiding before you can get a hit in is fun. Koloktos: Honestly, ny favourite battle. The fact that your own sword is TOO WEAK to fight this colossal golem is amazing, and you have to rip off his limbs and use his own weapons against him is just incredible. Ghirahim 2: Not that different to 1, only he can now grab your sword with either hand. What I love most is that you can’t just hack and slash anymore since his extremities are now invincible. Makes you focus a lot more on the fight. Tantalus: He was…pretty underwhelming. That’s not really an interesting or unique thing I like about him, he’s just sort of this big monster that you chop limbs off. I guess the tentacles through the floor was pretty good. Imprisoned 1: A nice shock to the system, having to fight this huge kaiju-esque monster that emits shockwaves with each step and slithers like a nightmare when you knock it down. Pretty easy, but a nice combat system. Imprisoned 2: Basically Imprisoned 1 but with ARMS. This f*cker can now climb the fricking walls. Best part of this battle is Groose. It relies a lot on coordination between Link and Groose to defeat it, and I love the switching mechanics.

I will say the potential to just launch yourself onto the Imprisoned and smash at the sealing spike (at least for the opening fights) does lift him up in my personal rankings above at least Scaldera and maybe Tentalus. There's a bit of fun to it and risk with that thing racing up each time you smash in the sealing spike. At least it felt too close for comfort at times. Ghirahim definitely made for a great recurring boss. As the first boss you face...he's hard. You are just getting comfortable with the controls and everything. But here is this guy that can catch your sword, launch projectiles, and just make your life miserable. He's absolutely harder than any of the other first phase bosses. And that makes sense since he is legitimately powerful and isn't taking you seriously. By the time he does start taking things seriously...we've caught up to him in terms of power and experience. Demise is a good last boss. The fight itself has weight and tension to it. It's the first hero vs one of the first great evils. One of the original fights between good and evil. And it definitely has that feel to it. Can't say enough good about Koloktos. One of Zelda's best boss fights.

I actually love Scaldera because of the build up to the fight. The room before the boss has large slopes with tripwire bolder cascades you have to avoid. Then the boss key itself is trapped with a huge bolder you have to sprint to avoid. That same bolder ends up freeing the path forward by stopping up the lava flow, and it moves forward ahead of you to be the final boss. I just find it so cool.

The Imprisoned isn't better, just different and worse. Its a nuicence no one likes. Tentalus at least has great buildup and atmosphere going for it even if it's a silly looking boss.

@@ShadowSkyX I do have another reason to hate the imprisoned now. I was doing the boss rush for the hylian shield and got the third fight of him. i had trouble catching up to him and knocked him down right underneath the temple. he still had a full spiral to go, but because it flies, it goes into a cutscene. while moving. I got a game over instantly when the cutscene ended because it got to move before the game let me react.

The Imprisoned reminds me of this monster named Vermex(? I don't remember it well) in Monster Quest Joker 2, also a worm like figure that lived at the bottom of a valley. You had to crawl inside his mouth and fight the actual boss, which is kinda similiar to Demise situation.

I’m really, REALLY enjoying SS HD. It’s so much fun, why people didn’t like it I don’t know. Having button controls helps out tremendously. Why this wasn’t implemented in the original I don’t know.

It was to push the Wii controls and it was for the most part built around that. Also the second stick on the switch is why they can do a button only control.

Now that i played it again, I realized about the finishing blow charged with lightning, similar to Twilight but without the lightning bolt. It would be interesting the Gerudo man from BOTW 2 could be Demise's corpse found by the Gerudo and praised as a god, while the energy had to be somehow controlled or everything could go rampage. I know he vanished at the end, but could be a good plot since he's the origin of all evil
