[@jstephen1]

The saddest part about Sif, is that Sif is trying to protect YOU. She knows you’re there for Artorias’ abysswalker ring, and she tries to stop you from going into the abyss and succumbing to the same fate Artorias did.

[@Kirroc]

It breaks my heart every time I do that battle! Sif is so adorable and I have heard that doing the DLC before facing Sif makes him/her reluctant to fight you so I have so far avoided doing the DLC first... too much pain the original way, let alone that...

[@deathbykonami5487]

No the saddest part is that it's a giant fluffy dog that starts whimpering and limping when it's low on health Souls-Borne bosses are supposed to be grotesque and make you feel like a million bucks when you take them down, not make you feel like you're kicking a puppy

[@Reigntempesta]

Nathan talking about The Last of Us, and not wanting to kill the Fireflies, then there's just Joel stood in the background staring at him like, "I had to. They were going to hurt Ellie." I don't know why but it amuses me.

[@Amaritudine]

When it come to 'The Last of Us', I'm not as conflicted as some folks. I always spare the unarmed surgeons, but as for the other Fireflies, I think Joel's stance was understandable, even if it's open to debate. Sure, the Fireflies thought they had a chance at finding a treatment for the infection - but at the same time, they were willing to kill the *only* person confirmed to be immune. In a matter of hours, they convinced themselves that there was absolultely no way they could learn anything while Ellie was alive, and decided that the only course of action was to kill her, extract her brain, and just hope it might teach them something new. That's the problem with the Fireflies. Dogmatically idealistic, and so accustomed to being brash freedom fighters that their default mindset is "kill first, consider asking questions later, but only if there's time". Ellie would've consented to prolonged medical tests and observation while they tried various approaches to understanding her immunity. But no; time and patience mean nothing to the Fireflies, so if you can speed things along by murdering a child, then that's just what you do at the first opportunity.

[@AlleluiaElizabeth]

And at the very least they should have asked her consent. She was very self sacrificial. Would prolly have said yes. And it would have allowed Joel and her time to say goodbye. Lying was the nail in their coffin.

[@ObsceneSociopath]

There's also the fact it's suggested in some of the hospital collectables that Ellie wasn't the first immune person they'd tried to get a vaccination from. I think it was an audio log & it alludes to but doesn't confirm that there are & have been others like Ellie but it ended in failure.

[@medusathedecepticon]

@@ObsceneSociopath Yeah they were too dumb to try a different alternative when the way they choose was obviously a flops. Makes me wonder though, did the surgeons ever suggest an alternative

[@COctagons]

NieR: Automata's colossus, Grun. When you play the second route, B, as 9S, you learn a little bit about the boss' backstory: Turns out, despite it being the size of Godzilla, and just as destructive, it has the mind of a child, and doesn't really understand what it's doing. To add to that, up to the point that you fight it, it spent centuries aimlessly wandering the bottom of the ocean, searching for the ones who had abandoned it, including its "mother", after it was discarded there.

[@SomewhatSlightlyBored]

Every boss in both Nier games could make this list.

[@medusathedecepticon]

@@SomewhatSlightlyBored definitely

[@deathbykonami5487]

@@SomewhatSlightlyBored especially in the first nier where you kill two shades named and based off Hansel and Gretel, a small shade and its robot protector (yeah you pretty much kill Hiro and Baymax from Big Hero 6), do I need to say anything about Shade Wendy at the Aerie

[@WhitcherJames]

How could you forget killing Zeke in InFamous 2's Bad Karma ending. You don't get a choice, you HAVE to kill him if you choose the bad karma ending, which would be bad enough but they make it a very slow process, as if Cole is holding back almost all of his strength. That along with the fact that Zeke refuses to go down, making you have to shoot him 7 or 8 times, makes this a very heart breaking moment.

[@iloldthough6611]

[@subliminalr2702]

He might not have been a boss but I couldn’t kill Paarthurnax in Skyrim. I refused to. His wisdom and ancient knowledge helped me on my quest and I couldn’t betray him.

[@SA80TAGE]

did we have a choice? I can't remember.

[@LadyTarasque]

+Samur/Aye we had a choice

[@ryanm2821]

You had a choice but in the base game without mods you could not continue the blades questline. Which i was fine with.

David remembering a part where you can catch 2 soldiers having basically the same argument you guys had about the boss and big boss at the base on mother base you'll often catch 2 soldiers having that same argument

[@dracotias]

for me it's Grigori in Dragon's Dogma especially if you do so on a second playthrough because then everything he say's makes so much more sense and you really get a grasp of the tragic situation he's in. He exists literally just for you to kill him as part of your test to replace "god" if you fail you're fated to replace him for the same purpose of testing the next arisen and that just feels weighty. Plus he's just a really cool character, The speech just before the last fight is a big bit of that.

[@whispa215]

dracotias Grigori is by far one of my all time favourite "bad guys" in gaming : )

[@Mk-it6cr]

dracotias actually your character becomes the new dragon from failing to defeat "god", if grigori kills you he actually stay alive until an arisen strong enough to defeat him appears

[@jakomioftherose2434]

Holy Hell, I almost never see people who also likes Grigori from Dragon's Dogma. And further more, he's just an Arisen. Like the one before him.

[@MoostachedSaiyanPrince]

Oh my God, yes. When I started playing Dragon's Dogma, I never expected that the "villain" of the game would be such a compelling, and tragic character. His speech patterns, his overwhelming, menacing appearance, and intelligence all make him a fantastic antagonist and is one of the main reasons that Dragon's Dogma is one of my favorite games to this day.

[@NAcHO-wx5vg]

One boss that comes to mind is xion. That ending of the game was so depressing but her death was th3 final nail in the coffin.

[@ohrience]

[@marshalleastin1753]

Now this is a optional boss but at the end of Infamous 2 if you pick the evil ending and you have to kill Zeke and it's this super slow drawn out zap him let him shoot at you zap him repeatedly and it's just so slow and intense you can feel the betrayal Zeke must feel as you electrocute him to death as you go on your way to wipe out all of humanity.

[@ff8fan266]

Dave, Hollie, and Rob all had answers I brokenheartedly agree with. By the end of TLoU, I was in a state of shock and reacted on instinct regarding the Fireflies. No regrets on that one for me.

[@TheRatsCast]

For me; having to kill all the Aeons from Final Fantasy X. After defeating Sin; Yuna is not forced to kill all of her Aeons in a super long additional boss battle. If you spend any significant time in the game; you become attracted to your summons just as Yuna does, so having to kill each and everyone one at a time is painful. One of the hardest things I ever had to do in a video game

[@cathie6846]

The Rat's Cast and you get those little goodbye messages from the aeons and it just hurts so much more.

[@TheRatsCast]

Cathie Leyy Oh God, I know! Worst boss battle EVER!

[@NotQuiteEnglish01]

Well you don't really kill them, do you? You free them so they can rest in peace. (FYI you don't even need to summon the aeons; throw a Candle of Life item at Yu Yevon, it'll Doom him. Wait three turns and voila, you win.)

[@TheRatsCast]

NotQuiteEnglish but the whole point was one your Aeons takes the place of the fallen Aeon who is now Sin. That's why they must be killed

[@lightsidemaster]

That broke my heart, god damn it.

You also look as if you’ve slimmed down and got rid of some Christmas calories too, fair play boyo. Looking good m8. I’m a straight bloke too so like I said, it’s no man crush. I just thought it deserves a mention.

[@SweenusSwinginHisDingus]

Stanetti Els I like that you had to specify that you are in fact Welsh

[@therandomninja5]

I don’t know of the official reasoning, but “Big Boss” refers (or used to refer) to the final boss of a game - like how there are mini bosses, and stage bosses. I think the descriptor just stuck as his “name.” The worst part about killing The Boss is how the game won’t continue on until you shoot her! Then it spends the next 10 minutes telling you why it’s sad! I tear up every time during that final salute!

[@nickamodio721]

I love how genuine you all come across. Excellent video. Sometimes it's nice to see how the sausage is made... haha

[@dxgt17]

doesn't not count as a boss... but having to shoot your own soldiers when the infection kicks in in Mother Base in Metal Gear Solid 5, it was really a really hard thing to do and digest for me... probably, a lot of people felt the same way... specially because every time you shoot one, you get a notification and then a commentary from Huey.... but you don't have a choice... to think the hardest part of the whole thing is when you enter that one room where everyone is saluting you before you pop everyone up...

[@SaltyRocksPew]

I resorted to drinking to get over that scene. The despair you feel. Man. Theres no words.

[@chivalrousepyon]

One of the first bosses in Breath of Fire 3, you have to kill a monster that is terrorizing the town, you then discover it was only trying to feed it's dead offspring. Very sad moment

[@precious_muse]

I'd say Jecht from "Final Fantasy X." I know, he's Sin, but he's Tidus's father, Auron's friend, Yuna adores him, and everyone else sees him a hero. It was tough seeing the man before defeating the monster, especially after that speech he makes.

[@GamalJesus]

Back in Puerto Rico we have an urban myth of a similar dog. Except that the master supposedly drowned while taking a swim and the dog kept on waiting atop of a rock until it supposedly turned into stone

[@drasticbread249]

Nath and Dave weren’t totally wrong, because many times in MGS during cutscenes, the FOX-HOUND members refer to Liquid as “the boss,” such as “Just what I’d expect from the man with the same code as the boss”

[@corwin32]

Even worse to me is that Sif is trying to protect you from the Abyss. She's trying to save you from yourself, and you kill her for it

Great video! Another weekly Friday should be "Games we wanted to be good, but simply aren't". Loved to see that! :)

[@SlickZae]

[@shadow8928]

the "cure" in last of us is a pipe dream at best with how they were presenting it in the game, the operation room was barely sanitized at best, then they only have one immune subject to extract the needed sample, and we've not even touched the logistical nightmare that would be the process of mass production and distribution of this "cure".

[@Ivotas]

Oh my god, this video was great to begin with but the end where Dave and Nate made Rob question his knowledge of MGS1 gives this one legendary status. Don't let them fool you Rob. There is no mention of the Boss in MGS1. Also this list just made me realize again that no matter how great the suggestions for possible future playthrough series for the team might be, a Metal Gear Stupid 2 and 3 still would have to be the first choice.

[@horrificbeauty1666]

I'd have to say mine is Virgil from devil may cry and devil may cry 3. I mean in devil may cry you just find out your brother is still alive but being forced to fight you and in the third one you find out he wasent as bad as what you truly would of thought.

[@trumpetsamurai]

My answer would be Bloodwing in Borderlands 2.

[@DC2241]

You technically don't kill her though you just weaken her enough that Mordacai can come in and save her, unfortunately Jack beats him to the punch and detonates the collar around her neck meaning he actually killed her and making you want him dead that much more despite the fact that he is pretty hilarious

[@TheFilthyCringer]

Personally I think the worst part about that moment was how long it took Blake to find a damn violin

[@kidsgames658]

The look on Rob's face when he thought he may be wrong about MGS1 was priceless 😂😂😂

[@kadajsnightqueen]

Vergil from Devil May Cry 3 (and to an extent, DMC1). I’ve always felt horrible about what happened to him. After defeating a certain jackass alongside him, the twins reunited and acting like real brothers instead of archenemies, that final fight is emotional napalm. It’s one of the best final boss fights ever, sure, but it grabs your heartstrings and pulls them like they’re the bells of Notre Dame. Then you have the cutscene where Dante tries to grab his brother, to stop him from falling into the abyss in a last-ditch effort despite Vergil’s own wishes, only to get sliced across the hand in a disciplinary swat. THEN, if you kill 100 demons during the credits, you get the secret cutscene. You get an exhausted, badly wounded Vergil charging off to challenge Mundus and you get that sickening sensation in the pit of your stomach because you just know what’s going to happen. Vergil gets defeated, brainwashed, and corrupted into the Nelo Angelo, which Dante has to fight and kill in the original DMC. In spite of everything, Dante still loved his big brother, and wanted to save him. And then he realizes that he’s unknowingly killed him, and what Mundus did to him. It’s a boss death that stretches over the course of two separate games, and the buildup is just as painful as the death itself because you can’t help wondering “what if.” What if Dante had grabbed Vergil and dragged him out of the Demon World. What if he had realized who the Nelo Angelo was. What if Vergil’s need for power and revenge hadn’t overwhelmed him. I absolutely love the DMC series, but the entire setup regarding Vergil’s death just destroys me.

[@laurawaterfield838]

I agree with Hollie it is rather sad killing these beasts that are going about their business. I thought Rob was going to lose it there when doubt creeped in. Hilarious. Love the vids. Love all of you. Cheers

When I fought Sif having just defeated Artorias and Magnus for the first time, it broke my heart seeing him limping at the final stages of the fight. It's a different fight when you know the backstory.

[@DC2241]

I've got to agree with Hollie killing Sif was about the hardest thing I've had to do in videogames he/she(no one at FromSoftware has ever come out and Confirmed the gender so please don't argue with me) tries to keep you away from the abyss at all costs and you have no choice but to take his/her life to continue on your quest. Sif's and Artorias' deaths are what kept me coming back to Dark Souls although if I'm completely honest I still haven't finished the second game because mechanically I just don't like it as much as the other Souls games. In Dark Souls 3 once the Abyss Watcher's are felled I am the last the only one to carry on Sif and Artorias' sworn duty to stop the spread of the abyss I'm not just a Watchdog of Farron I'm the last Abyss Watcher. The one good thing that came out of it was a good story woven from the lore of the game as well as my own personal experiences in the game's world.

True. Some of the Foxhound members refer to Liquid as "the boss", but they never use capital letters, and its clear they're only really referring to him as *their* boss. For example, when Ocelot says, "so you're the one that the boss keeps talking about." That's probably what made Nathan or Dave think they remembered a reference to The Boss instead.

Isn’t the Hachiko statue shown in “Persona 5,” near the Shibuya station?

In the Last of Us I remember thinking there's no need to kill the surgeon but couldn't get past so decided to first try to threaten with a gun and failing that, shoot him in the foot. Unfortunately a bullet to the foot turned out to be an instakill so it very quickly turned into a 'no witnesses' situation with the others. Did feel a little bit cheated though.

[@samdilks9516]

hollie used sif as an example from dark souls and while i totally agree, i think that there are a couple more bosses from dark souls that really didn't deserve That - namely, quelaag. amazing chest jokes aside, she's only where she is because she's trying to get humanity from the various undead warriors coming for the bell of awakening to cure her sister. that's it. so while sif is protecting his master's grave and trying to save you from the abyss by blocking the path, quelaag just wants her sister back. and every one of us who has finished dark souls just killed both of them because of some prophecy. monsters, the lot of us.

[@NowhereNearBerlin]

Yes, Hollie you face off against Sif in Darkroot Basin. Also you have to go there in order to gain Artorias' ring so that you can traverse the Abyss at the bottom of New Londo ruins. Yo FextraLife...hit me up!

[@Therandomguy]

Damn looking really hot in this video Rob.

[@starduster2829]

Xion from Kingdom Hearts days would fit well here. With Vector to the Heavens playing in the background as you fight right in front of the place where the three friends bonded. And Xion shouting 'Stop holding back!'.

[@NAcHO-wx5vg]

Star Duster agreed. The only other piece from the kingdom hearts that brings tears to my eyes, is the other promise (roxas’s theme) from the fight against roxas in the world that never was.

[@starduster2829]

NAcHO1713 Only just occurred to me that they wouldn't put it on here because it was on DS not PlayStation haha

[@NAcHO-wx5vg]

Star Duster they still could have... due to the franchise being a PlayStation exclusive.

[@EleosGames]

A tear went down my cheek at the end of MGS3 when all is revealed.

[@masterfulsnowelf2840]

Rob: Am I going mad? Me: I thought you were mad with most of the Friday features being what they are :D Love you all, and I hope Hollie and Dan have a good press trip. The rest of you get back to work :P

[@gregmoldovan5921]

I thought they did reference "the Boss" in MGS1, but it's referring to Liquid Snake. Ocelot mentions you're maybe as good as the Boss, doesn't he? Idk I feel some of the villains called Liquid that.

[@steelrarebit7387]

Han Solo: I shot first. Dave: Watch this.

[@thetalker.7304]

the beginning of new wolfernstien when you kill the helpless dog you can't pick if you don't want to kill it.

[@thunderbuns6811]

oh dave... if you have finished shadow of the colossus by now, I cried even harder at the ending

[@PedroMartinez-lk6rn]

Ravus from FFXV

[@ikmalhakim8280]

Pedro Martinez I agreed with you on that one because at that time when you saw all of the fallen soldiers you definitely know that ravus was innocent an then you sudden have to fight him with his body half corrupted with his painful screech

[@PedroMartinez-lk6rn]

JusT2LaZy Yeah it was sad enough when he died but at least you’d think he was resting peacefully but then after all the bullshit he was given in life he had to take on more bullshit even after death

[@PedroMartinez-lk6rn]

EresirThe1st Yeah especially how he was made to think he was killed by Noct after all he did to protect noct and get the sword to him

[@DC2241]

Pedro Martinez he's a Daemon by the time you fight him, the only thing left of Ravus is the twisted form the Daemon takes so I don't think that really counts especially since someone else clearly killed him before the fight triggers

[@ObsceneSociopath]

+The Lonewolfgamer There's still some of him/his personality left during the fight, if you listen to his dialogue he basically asks them to finish him off & curses at Ardyn.

[@pyrofan80]

Damnit Nathan! I called the first three right and then you had to think outside the box...

[@birkinsmith88]

Wesker. They could have had him slink off at the very last moment to appear in little cameos in dlcs or whatnot (you dont have to stick him in the main game if youre sick of him, devs. we'd still eat up any little afterthoughts like that) but nope, the make you kill him in a very difficult way to wrangle around....

[@MultiXGamer1]

Dude you guys missed out on Vaas from Far Cry 3. That dude was so cool yet you kill him in such a lame way.
