Boss tropes that make you go.... Not this shit again!

>A big floating head. or goes floaty-head in the second or third phase
>Needing to puzzle like turning all switches off/on in a massive room
>Can't damage the boss until you kill his hordes first
>You can't win unless you use one very specific tactic figured by trial and error
>Fighting the same boss at least 3 times with no actual plot relevance
>Insane distance between saving and boss location
>Not even a boss fight, you gotta escape like a cunt with a timer in maze-like conditions
>DARK YOU

You can also memearrow aspects that you really enjoy about bosses.

>any boss that is made difficult because it attacks multiple times in a row
I could look past all that in that 7th Dragon 3DS game but the extra dungeon wasn't fun at all because of it.

I was on the fence, debating whether OP was a master baiter or just a filthy casual. Then I read this one:

>Insane distance between saving and boss location


And I gotta say. Gotta actually give OP a 7/10. I had to get through most of his list to figure out he was a goddamn troll.

Not really, since it's based everyone's personal opinion.
Stop flinging poop around, and contribute.

Shit I Iove in boss fights
>boss is huge enough to stand on, and you can/must do so in the fight
>When the boss takes damage/crosses a damage threshold, his hit reaction breaks part of the arena and makes the fight harder going forward
>Boss uses a minor/side mechanic not used in most fights in a key way

Early-mid game bosses become common enemies except they are palette swap and sometimes generic name when earlier you figured the boss was unique from its full name

Vergil isn't dark you, he's your twin, that's all as far as similarities go.
