Shame she fucking sucked to fight in ZOE2, at least most of the other bosses were great.
>>344914976
please?
that soundsfun
>>344915136
The boss fight i'm talking about lasts longer, it's probably faster from what i've seen from Z.O.E and you're constantly on the run with supersonic boosters because you have missiles that don't get thrown off by flares (just your shield which is unique to the mech) and the enemy also regenerates and throws out tons of funnels that laser spam you in the ass unless you are constantly in a turn.
It's a big dogfight.
>>344915183
sadly it's early access but I like it thus far, it's kind of slow on updates.
>final boss is a big guy with 9mm and a knife
>>344914976
Sounds like metal wolf chaos
>>344915316
Oh I wasn't making a guess, I just felt like talking about ZOE
>>344915421
>final boss is crashing this plane
>>344915468
I haven't played MWC but the game i'm talking about literally puts you in supersonic mechs that fly around in dogfights whenever they have any kind of equal to fight against.
During the fight i'm talking about you are basically turning a large amount of airspace (2km+ i'm guessing due to the amount of boosting you do, mechs are like 15m tall at a low end) into a gigantic firestorm.
In normal stages you usually end up evading and targeting tons of weaker mechs either with missiles or other shit. Missiles don't always work though due to flares.

Okay
Let me lay it down fresh for you
There's this game SEGA released on the Sega genesis. It's called Phantasy Star IV.
Not too many people played it because it cost $100. Yup. Not counting for inflation by the way.
But the game is ACTUALLY good.
So you're playing Phantasy Star IV and the entire game hypes up this Zio character. Calls him very evil. He basically kills an entire town and you have to do an entire dungeon just to revive 1 witness to hear about how bad this guy is.
Then you go to a city devoted to this guy. You go in a church where this man is worshipped. The game is screaming at the top of its lungs that THIS IS THE MAIN VILLAIN
You climb this HUGE tower. Fighting tons of bosses. At the top of the tower, at the end of this dungeon, you finally, FINALLY Fight Zio
This music kicks into gear
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQQXKH_XXh4
Holy SHIT, this boss is Hype as fuck. The music is unreal, and it has this cool background. You're in fucking space.
Then Zio says "fuck you" and zaps your main character. She is now dead.
Your MC is now the male character you completely neglected the other 80% of the game because he sucks ass. Well he's the protagonist now, deal with it.
You come back and kick Zio's ass again after a long, long, LONG Fight
It's gruelling hard, he's LITERALLY the hardest boss in the entire game.
Finally finish. Got your revenge.
...
guess what. you're only 20% into the game.
>>344913890
It matters not if I have a 9mm! I will find a way to impregnate that boss anyway, even if I had -no- penis!
>>344932504
I know you all hate this guy but, I thought this was an awesome climactic battle the first time in.
>>344936631
Hmmm, I was thinking Cthulhu Saves the World. Which one is this?
>>344937125
God damn it I am blind.
>>344937029
Will they ever release the Vashir raid?
>>344936862
Doesn't it's difficulty drop off a cliff after the Zio fight? It goes from being masochistically difficult to handholding difficulty if I remember correctly
>>344937630
yeah, the other 80% of the game is just prolonging the credits. you already killed the final boss.

There's also this game SQUARE released on the Playstation. It's Called final fantasy 7
Everyone played it because it was $60.
But the game is ACTUALLY mediocre
So you're playing Final Fantasy 7 and the entire game hypes up this Shinra company. Calls it very evil. They basically explode an entire sector and you have to do an entire crossdressing episode and have a love affair with an employee just to hear about how evil this company is
Then you go to sectors that love this company. Talk about how they're saving the world and using renewable energy but you know its a lie.
You climb these HUGE pipes, fighting tons of enemies and bosses. At the top of the skyscraper, at the end of this dungeon, you finally, FINALLY confront Shinra.
This music kicks into gear
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BrwQPtxR36M
Holy SHIT, the game just became a Gran Turismo ripoff. You're riding a fucking motorcycle on a HIGHWAY WHILE SLASHING BAD GUYS. ITS SO COOL
Then the game says "fuck you" and ends your chase with a bossfight fuck that boss seriously
It's a very long episode and you think you finally saved the world by stopping Shinra
Then you get to Midgar's exit gate and realize
You're not even halfway through disc 1.
>game sets up a really cool antagonist
>surprise, the real final boss is a giant multicoloured laser eyeball out of fucking nowhere
>surprise again, the real REAL final boss is an ancient goddess who is also a gas station attendant who was behind everything
>final boss sings a song after you defeat them

What is World War 2?
>final boss is just a normal human that can die with 1 bullet

there's nothing like seeing someone put so much time and thought into a post just to get fucked by an equally devoted autist

In Gunstar Heroes the final boss is immune to all forms of damage and instead you just dodge all his shit while shooting at the thing supplying him with energy.

keking hard
>final boss fight is so long that it takes up a half of the game

The final boss is fucking shit. I was happy for Izanami just because of all the "go against what the game tells you to do" stuff. I just love this in vidya.

Fallout 3
>final boss fight is actually several different fights happening at once that you have to switch between

>Your MC is now the male character you completely neglected the other 80% of the game because he sucks ass
sounds shitty.
Not the MC switcharoo part but the
>your new mc sucks ass
part.
That's pretty shitty.

There's literally nothing wrong with 9mm.

I mean, am I wrong?
If someone thinks i'm wrong they can feel free to contradict me but the new MC is definitely a downgrade
>the best boss isn't the final boss
Why do so many games do this?
