Do you actually progress your character's abilities through the entire game as you go? Is there a setting that's outside of what could be considered our reality? Do you have specific roles and/or character story to follow?
Then it's a RPG.

Star Ocean 3, Gabriel Celestial to be precise.

Exactly what I mean here, you think because it doesn't have leveling system or stat gains it automatically isn't an RPG.
Yet it in a fantasy setting with constant upgrades to the character the more you explore and play, tons of interactive charters and story, and a character that is outside the realm of just some dude.

FFV, the final boss is just a fucking tree.
FFTA, everyone is trying to stop you and you're just a fucking kid
FF I, is the chaos god that happens to be a douchebag you beat at the beginning
FF II, the final boss is a generic evil emperor
FF III, the final boss is QT with plant tentacles
FF IV, is technically the kids friendly Berserk god.
FF VIII, is a witch with weird make up and haircut.
FF X, is a god that is actually a tick, maybe is a joke or some shit like that.
FF X-2, is a dead guy.
FF XIII, is a Pope that also turns out to be a demigod who is trying to call the actual God.

In God of War 3, you beat Zeus in a Mortal Kombat style battle. It was pretty satisfying. Every game has the battle itself, and the cinematic or whatever comes later to make it more grandiose.

My favorite last boss in a western game is actually the one from Planescape:Torment. There are just so many ways you can deal with him based on how you built your character. You can beat him in a 1v1 fight, trick him to ressurect your friends, believe him out of existence, and even force him to fuse with you, becoming a god, among other things. It was a very satisfying way to end a RPG that is mostly based on talking to people.

I just got shadow of mordor for $5, played through the entire game, it was pretty fun. It wasn't anything spectacular but I enjoyed it. The whole game was spent hyping up the final boss as this unstoppable killing machine, the black hand of sauron, and then when you finally find him, it's literally a five second long, two button press qte then straight to credits. I was so fucking mad. I just wanted to fight that faggot but the game was like "nah, cunt, have a qte instead, that's what the kids like so everyone's gotta have it"

>>343676417
Batman: Arkham City. Gameplay-wise it is decent. Plot-wise, it's underwhelming because it comes out of fucking nowhere. I guess if you compare it to other great games it sucks, but it's certainly the best final boss in an Arkham game.
