Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door

Reminds me of Godhand. It had a stage which included an incredible duel with your rival, perhaps the second hardest in the game, topped only by another duel with your rival.
Then the final boss of the stage is a slow clunky robot with telegraphed attacks. Everyone even comments that the final boss of the stage was an useless guy.
Of course the really difficult fight you mentioned might be the second duel with the rival.

I was thinking of pretty much every serious sam level boss, and shadow warrior 2013.
All of the dead space games have a similar thing except instead of an inflated healthbar it's just scripted moments when you can actually damage the boss.
Maybe shooters just have shitty boss fights in general

Okay? Who the fuck cares?
For starters Rando gets his ass kicked by Brad, then Brad slowly dies of bloodloss after killing 20-30 people at the same time. So technically Rando didn't kill him.
Secondly, even if Rando did kill him, he's the only boss that does this making final bosses becoming the protagonist not being a common idea. Since ya' know, it's a fucking dumb idea. It only worked for Rando because Lisa was an artsy series.
>>342629465
Fair enough.
