7 Cheaty Bosses Who Didn't Fight Fair: Commenter Edition

We recently recalled cheaty videogame bosses, who used tactics such as deleting your save file, learning from their mistakes, or being from Bloodborne. The comments on that video revealed you had suffered similarly unjust encounters, so here are yet more times you folks were bested by a bent boss.

Doing so does a LOT of damage, and will cause Chuck to start throwing up as well afterwards. Combined that with him running off and eating while you are throwing up, or possibly having a nearby zombie interrupt your attempts to throw up and getting chewed by them (followed by more throwing up making a vicious loop, probably interrupted by Antoine throwing plates at you because he healed himself to full health while you were getting eaten). You didn't give Antoine enough credit for how obscenely cheaty he is. Add on top like all DR bosses you are on a time-limit, he could possibly outlast you, causing him to vanish just as you are finally getting close to killing him.

well, you technically can, there are 2 versions of true pacifist, the normal one, and "tinted pacifist" in which if you stay with toriel, in the scene where she walks into your room to give you cake, your face suddenly become's chara's before the game ends. choose to leave, and the photo at the end instead has everyone's faces x'ed out, with chara replacing the player, again the game ends afterwards.

[@halkiierid4084]

The Hag and Siren from Darkest Dungeon also need some honorable mentions here. One throws a random character in her cauldron, so you have to choose between saving them and attacking her. The other mind-controls your characters to fight on her side. Honestly, it would probably be quicker to list the bosses in that game who don't use some radically unfair tactic.

[@Altoryu]

Personally I'd like to call out the Chainsaw guys in any Resident Evil game ever. They aren't even really a boss and they still can kill you with one hit if you aren't paying attention. Some people get scared of the sounds of the regenerators from RE4? When I hear a chainsaw revving in any RE game that's when I started to get scared shitless.

[@Maniacman2030]

Altoryu What's worse than one? When those two sisters come after you in RE4. In RE5, I handed AI Sheva the Rifle and lead that one guy around while she plinked him. I did take a couple shots when he staggered, but I kept *really* far away.

[@Altoryu]

Hearing that sound and knowing that if you screw up, you'll be beheaded in an instant makes me nervous as hell. Plus in until RE6 (from memory) you had no way to aim and move so you had to stop then turn and shoot and keep running all whilst making sure you don't run into a corner or a wall. Not to mention when you have to deal with RE's idiot AI so if they screw up it's game over for you as well.

[@Altoryu]

Maniacman2030 Yeah after knowing that little surprise was waiting I just preferred to take my chances with the Giant instead.

[@TheAuron32]

those guys suck for sure but... the fucking reapers scare me more, mutant freaking cockroach that i wouldnt be surprised to see replace lickers and hunters as BOWs in future games...

[@josephattwell1006]

Psycho Mantis cheats by reading your mind (I.E. your controller imputs), so he is impossible to beat until you, in real life, unplug your controller and plug it back into the second controller slot. He also reads your system's memory card, with unique dialogue if you have certain games saved, and will use the rumble feature to make your controller move.

Well, to be fair, Sans is trying to save everyone, and after sleeping all the time, and hardly ever doing anything, he not only saved his power, but definetly felt determined to kill you. Also, the best part about sans is the character is able to dodge because when the game resets, he dosen’t. Much more lore.

This one is a bit hard to talk about as everything from the boss' name to how they cheat is a spoiler. Let me put it this way, Paper Mario TTYD, Chapter 4, certain ghost in a bedsheet, what happens when you win. (Read more for the spoiler version) In Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door's Fourth Chapter you fight the boss early on who takes on the form of a shadowy version of Mario during the fight. As soon as you beat him the chapter "ends" but then the camera fades back in to reveal what actually happened. The boss has stolen your identity and your ENTIRE party. You now play as Mario's shadow for a while to try and find the ghost's weakness. You can't leave the area until you do and everything is harder without your party. And then you fight him with your party members on his side. The stronger you made them the harder the fight can be.

@James Toomer: It's just a shame that, even if you go out of your way to beat all of your allies before beating the boss, that fight's still extremely easy. The concept, music, & atmosphere are amazing.

[@plan8067]

There really isn't much in TTYD that's particularly hard (the ending can be if you don't use Danger strats) but it's still an enjoyable experience all the way through. The game gets by a lot on it's atmosphere and mechanics but doesn't provide much of a challenge. It's kind of a "beginner's RPG" in a good way.

[@DrBarbequeSauce]

An old and obscure one but definitely one that deserves a mention in this category is the final boss of Beyond Good and Evil.

Here's a boss from a game I haven't finished yet: the Royal Jelly from Ni No Kuni. I could name other frustrating ones from the game alone, but the Royal Jelly is the only one I've come across that spawns babies when its health is depleted to a point, so you have about twenty or so enemies to worry about, and the Royal Jelly sometimes uses an attack that can wipe out your health bar unless you defend in time--which is easy to miss if you're distracted. By the babies.
