Closeted? My man made his fursona into a mech suit and howls to start the fight, he’s loud and proud, he is…

Imma be real. I did not expect to fight a giant Mech werewolf accompanied by one of the best boss tracks I’ve heard in my life that matches the character and his personality. A++++ Bethesda and Tango.

[@jedileader0174]

Agreed, and I love how they incorporated a bit of Beethoven's 5th Symphony into it at the start and sprinkled throughout the track as well. It fits Roquefort perfectly since I have a feeling he'd be one to listen to and enjoy classical music. He may also listen to classical music to control his anger.

What makes the Roquefort fight unique from a story perspective is that Chai seems genuinely scared during this fight. He makes no jokes the entire time, he gets bodied in cutscene, and even when he won, he just got mad lucky that money fell on top of Roquefort and is dead tired after the fight

[@DionneDion]

Yeah, I honestly didn't really like the way he got killed off there. It didn't feel like an accomplishment, but more so as a "..That was it?" I don't hate it though, I mean I guess it fits in shape with the game's humor so it's not out of place or whatever. I just wish I could've finished him off myself heh.

[@NEO0950]

@@DionneDion I think they did it that way to make sure he got out alive, since he wasn't literally blown up like most bosses.

You fight an expy of the infamous Wolf of Wall Street…who can turn into a giant mecha werewolf…and his boss theme is done by a guy named Wolfgang… SO MANY LAYERS, MAN. This is brilliant.

So there's a mod for Deep Rock Galactic that swaps in Hi-Fi Rush music. Lemme tell you, hearing the iconic DUN DUN DUN DUNNNNN when starting a Dreadnaught fight is pretty damn incredible

[@yngwie811]

Oh, yeah dude! I thought the same thing about this. Deep Rock Galactic really needs a mod for the soundtracks from Hi-Fi RUSH

[@cti23gy46]

Interesting how they handled the anti-claim version of the songs. Obviously they had the rights to use these songs but live stream services would likely still pick up the songs. It was very thoughtful of the devs to do this. This is quite the remix of a remix :)

[@meghancherry3640]

The game's version of Invaders Must Die (INTRUDER) is also an absolute banger.

[@Dead_Weight21]

@@meghancherry3640 Definitely not better than Invaders Must Die, but is close to it

This is in my opinion better than the original since the Beethoven's 5th Symphony remix feels empty without the violin in it

i could be looking into this a little too much, but Roquefort is a type of blue cheese. To make that cheese you would need sheep's milk to make it.

[@ultimaT]

The boss fight was so freaking amazing, didn't expect werewolf mech man.

[@heiligkeit6345]

I'm not a musical guy, but interesting thing for me is that the music for Roquefort went electronic. I consider it a great feature by devs, making Chai who is driven by passion, complete randomness and representing rock confront coldblooded, focused on high numbers boss of finance who represents electronic music

Roquefort was legit the greatest and only real challenge for our plucky band of heroes.

The biggest miss opportunity in this game was that Chai didn't make not one dog related pun during this fight

[@xgamermarco]

My 2nd favorite boss fight, but the way he went out didn't felt like I beaten him fair

[@stevencampbell348]

Cause technically you haven’t beaten him, Roquefort literally said right before end that “As long as you keep making me mad, you’ll never win” when Chai tries to assert his victory, and we never actually see him die just see him get encased in gold coins. Usually when there’s been no real sign of defeat/death for a character they’ll be returning. Ultimately Chai didn’t beat Roquefort, Chai just managed to survive and take his passkey. Every boss goes out in some explosion when killed, but that didn’t happen with Roquefort.

[@weewer3369]

That's because he's unbeatable (possibly?) something about his abilities makes him get back up after defeats.

[@xgamermarco]

@@stevencampbell348 oh yeah that I do know, in his Model Viewer “Roquefort(Wolf)” mentions how powerful he his that Chai’s ability alone isn’t enough to stop him and needs a “Dues Ex Machina” (Those that don’t know what that is, it’s plot device used to bring a solution to a insolvable situation) and at the end of the info it says “that will conveniently make it self known” either hinting that his own greed for more profits caused his defeat(what made me feel unsatisfied) or that he could show up in a sequel or DLC. If that happens I’ll get my satisfaction on beating him for good.

[@stevencampbell348]

@@xgamermarco the actual term you’re looking for is “Deus Ex Machina”, not “ex deus machine”. Yeah I agree that the money taking him out of the picture was a let down but it does have me suspecting his appearance in a potential sequel.
