Subjective as fuck. Even if I posted a boss fight I considered "good" I would be told it isn't and the thread would devolve into shitposting.

Do indies count? If so I can think of plenty indie games with good boss fights, Shovel Knight just for one example.

If you just mean AAA, I'm not even sure if I played more than a few western AAA games the last few years so I can't say.

I killed Oryx on the release day after being stuck there for a bit blind and having to eventually watch how others do it. It was a rush killing him the first time with the pressure for damage and all but it's really only better because the previous bosses were shit.

When I say previous bosses, I mean for the other DLCs. I sort of liked the first two KF bosses.

In my defense, I adopted a defensive strategy the entire game with only one front line fighter acting as a super tank. Thaos and his statues really punished it.

Good choices, but one of the only memorable bosses from the game, unfortunately. TW2 did the boss fights better.
>>

Me too, except my group figured out how to damage him before saying 'fuck it' and watching streams. Excluding Crota, all the raid bosses in Destiny are pretty good.

>>319720895
I didn't pay for it, so it's cool. My friend wanted me to play with him so bad he threw down on the game and extra content. The content didn't match the value of the game until recently with the advent of Taken King, I'd say, but only if you buy the Taken King edition now and haven't paid for anything in the past with Destiny. It also helped that I had people who were really into the lore explain things to me during play, and I always had people to play with which was a plus. There are some very cool moments in Destiny, but it gets repetitive for sure.

>I'd say, but only if you buy the Taken King edition now and haven't paid for anything in the past with Destiny
Definitely this. I'm still quite upset that TTK is basically the finished version of Destiny, especially due it's weirdly high price here in AU. I like to think that Destiny's content for the most part is garbage and that the enjoyably long hours I got out of it were because of how solid the gameplay is and how easy it was to play with others.
Right now that sparrow racing shit is being heralded as some kind of god tier addition from Bungie and my dislike for the game is only growing.
>>319722905
As much as I fucking hated fighting Skolas, I sort of agree actually. Both before and after the patch, too bad the rewards were fucking awful.
>>
>>319716679
They pretty much had too. If would feel really out of place to be hearing the BtAS voice actors for everyone and then have one character sound completely different.
>>
>>319722905

Yeah it was a blast with the right people. Shame the rewards were so bad that you were wasting your time if you replayed it.

WoD version got nerfed. All the "too hard" bosses got put into a Legacy bracket, and any remaining got nerfed enough they're no longer number-crunching. Even Gold proving grounds puts up more of a fight.
