What Is The Hardest Boss In Gaming?

The longest I've ever spent on a boss is around 2 years. Not because of the difficulty, but the shear fear it would instill within my soul. It was Mr. Freeze from Batman Arkham City and I was around 8, 9 years old. His voice, the crimson laser eyes, the sound of his boots stomping on the frozen GCPD floor - all enough for 8 year old me to start a new save every time I got there. Later on in life I managed to summon up enough courage to just attempt the demon and won. I'll never forget it.

I have no idea why people are crying about NK. Dude was quite easy unless you're really underlevelled (which you shouldn't be at that point).

[@DjImpossibility]

For me it's probably Absolute Radiance from Hollow Knight. I know, I know... Most of the challenge doesn't come from the boss fight itself, although it is extremely difficult. But the only way you can access the boss fight is by completing a gauntlet, fighting 42 bosses in a row... without dying. Once you actually get to Absolute Radiance, you are exhausted and the nerves make mistakes very easy in a fight where mistakes are instantly punished. Other than that, Demon of Hatred from Sekiro was pretty tough as well.

Boss difficulty design is something I am always fascinated by, especially with how it is different between game genres. One of my favorite bosses for both their design and difficulty is Fatalis from Monster Hunter World Iceborne. It has unpredictable but fair attack patterns, dynamic behaviors, and great scaling for the endgame. I also like really like Orphan of Kos and pre-nerf Radahn.

[@thegoodeboy2016]

[@bigsmall2842]

The only mechanic that changed in the Radahn fight is the speed of the meteors. Everything else is the exact same. Go fight him underleveled and you will experience “pre-nerfed Radahn” again. It was never that hard of a fight, players just know the game more so they difficulty spectacle has wilted over time.

[@ssspike1696]

[@thebigoof5824]

I agree with Fatalis and AT Velkhana. I’ve beaten every boss in DS1 and 3 at level 1. I’ve also beaten all of Elden Ring and DS2 normally. Fatalis was by far my hardest fight in comparison. I always ended up losing to the timer due to playing cautiously and not wanting to greed hits which I guess is conditioning from Souls. I also ended up at Fatalis before even MR100 because I was too stubborn to grind in guiding lands and vehemently refused to do it with a group. AT Velkhana was also a nightmare as well.

[@BigFlabbins]

I think this also brings up what makes the Souls games so good. Difficulty should be less about damage differences and health but more about a fair opportunity. With a lot of games that have difficulty setting, the highest difficulty usually means you do less damage and take more, and the enemies do more and take less. Whereas the Souls series makes combat almost like a dance. Punish windows are very important for boss fights, and I think Souls does those very well (for the most part), much better than other action/fighting games.

[@scorcher117]

I have so much mixed feelings on radahn, on every other boss for all of souls I refuse to use summons because it feels too easy but with Radahn it seemed too thematically appropriate and cool to use the tournament summons. And then he was so easy I was disappointed, I didn’t even realise he had a phase 2 as he died pretty much right after the meteor attack. Such a cool thematic build up into a big let down.

[@Zach014G]

This is why i love Summons in elden ring. Because sone people who are just naturally better at dodging and getting rather close and have an easier time on most bosses. While someone like me who would grind hours and still get myself handed to because cant time dodge most bosses in middle to late game. Even then i still lose more even with summons. This does help some people who aren't as good nonetheless. I get the whole stigma around "Summon wins aren't wins." But tbh I also really hate that mindset at the same time. In the end its all preference feel bad for people who are just naturally worse at souls games.

[@uryenatienza4093]

What level did you beat Radahn at? For Charlie on release he played him under leveled with no summons, for most other players I've seen they've played around level 50-70 with summons and still had a decent challenge. Also would like to ask how you fought him, the way I enjoy it while still having a bit of challenge is no summons (sometimes with if I feel like it) while basically treating Torrent like a super sprint, don't use him too much or you'll get knocked off, still use him as you'll have a bad time dodging his zoning tools. I also like fighting him pure melee with melee only magic if I have any with low-ish vigor. Enough vigor to survive 2 or more attacks, but not enough to tank his damage.

Sword Saint Ishhin from Sekiro hands down. No contest. It took me like 3 nights of a few hours of attempts. It was by far the most rewarding boss to beat though. Spawn of Oghdos tongue grabs were basically impossible for me to dodge no matter the timing.

The most difficult part about Isshin the Glock Saint is having to learn his attack patterns in all 3 phases, phase 2 being the hardest IMO. But I wouldn't say he's the hardest simply because his attacks are pretty telegraphed. It's definitely the most fun fight in the game, but I'd say the demon of hatred is a much more difficult and frustrating fight.

Maybe not the ‘hardest’ final boss, but the hardest challenge in gaming that I’ve done/seen is the Inferno in OSRS. Usually it’s considered a big success if you can beat it in under 100 attempts, and amazing I’d you can do it under 50. with each attempt ranging from 30 mins to 2 or 3 hours, the mechanics aren’t as trying as some of the major souls-like bosses, but the fact it has a ton of ‘one mistake=restart’ mechanics and can last for so long makes it the hardest in my eyes. Not to mention the nerves and the sweaty gamer social implications of having the cape that shows completion. It’s prestigious enough that people who can’t do it will go to the black market and pay hundreds of dollars (against the rules, bannable,) just for someone else to beat it on their account. 100% the best feeling I’ve had from a video game was beating all 69 of the waves and I don’t think that anything’ll beat it

[@Crichjo32]

I always wondered why Radahn was INSANE on my first run through. At least 40+ tries with summons. But then I could easily one shot him on new game +'s. I hope they make a true Radahn fight in the DLC, where he isn't nerfed and you fight him at full power.

The thing is, Charlie almost beat Spawn of Oggdo on like his third try after upgrading his health to survive one heavy attack. After that he just started choking. I dont think this boss was the hardest for him considering he almost ran through it in under 30 mins once he was properly equipped.

[@jjjjjjaylon]

It’s a meme boss who cares if you beat it. It’s designed to be unfair.

[@mmus13898]

6:25 is when he actually starts talking about the hardest boss he’s played against

[@itzhazael]

for me is currently yozora from kh3, i always get confused on my block timing, some of his moves also confuse me a lot since they happen so suddenly

[@tumultuousv]

Have you beaten him yet?

[@YerbaMateo]

Dude Yozora on Critical mode is definitely one of the most difficult things I've ever done, very satisfying finally beating him but DAMN

[@dannythekhexpert6468]

@@YerbaMateo I’ve beaten Sephiroth and Lingering Will at Lvl1 base stats no damage no accessories Sweet Memories, bloody difficult but i did it And yet I cant even survive Critcal Yozora at Lvl99 with Ultima, literally have only ever beaten him on Proud and i had to spam Ariel to do it lol I can’t imagine even touching the pro codes

[@YerbaMateo]

@@dannythekhexpert6468 Oh man I FORGOT about the pro codes, and yeah Yozora took me 3 days on Crit lmao just counting every single combo out and I absolutely did some Simba spamming to do it too There's an old vid on my channel on it, BRUTAL fight, I can't even get to phase two nowadays haha

Personally, Electrocutioner in Arkham Origins had me pressed for months my body aching as I used all of my human power on that last XP to finally just refund the game - sheer will was never enough for me in this scenario.

This is excellent bait/trivia challenge

[@mohammedsameer5705]

If we consider balancing the difficulty and quality of boss fights I think Isshin the sword saint takes the top spot. Not to undermine Pre-patch Radahn and Spawn of Oggdo , but those two seem to have bunch of things going for them that are quite unfair and without it they will land somewhere in top 5.

[@owbserver]

its really funny how he holds this "death metric" as his litmus for difficulty because he had a way worse time agonizingly chipping away isshin for 20 minutes instead of just resetting to "preserve" his death count compared to spamming rock sling at radahn on torrent.

[@AaronUzumaki]

Mine is Yozora from Kingdom Hearts Re:Mind. Took me an entire weekend to beat him. Actually, I never found Soul's bosses very hard in comparison to KH's super bosses. I think for me, fast-paced, reactionary battles are just inherently more difficult than slow, methodical dodge rolls and swings. Sekiro came the closest to that for sure though.

[@acornofwar9159]

Seems like people always forget about fighting Owl in Sekiro. He has shinobi tricks as well as the smoke that makes you cant heal. Ive played the game so much that usually i can run through it pretty fast but he was definitely a struggle for me in early playthroughs. It was my first souls-like game.

[@spottypongo7591]

Father owl is an aggressive and attentive dance. ISS is just survival until phase 3(or 4 technically with genichiro)

[@driftingthroughthisplace5898]

he’s the easiest boss to cheese in the entire game of sekiro so I disagree

[@AO-qj2zu]

@@driftingthroughthisplace5898nah, Lady butterfly and DOH way easier to cheese.

[@Sandlund93]

Try Inner Father Owl in the Gauntlet. I mean, even the standard Father Owl is tougher than Great Shinobi Owl. Sounds like you haven't played Purification ending. There are 4 endings, Sekiro becoming the new sculptor being the lamest.

[@rosecity_chris]

I just recently started Demons Souls, and its my first venture into the souls games. So i dont know if this is true for all of them, but it should definitely be noted that boss fights in these dont just restart the boss fight when you die. You have to fight your way back to them from the last spawn point. Which thus far for me has been quite the journey every time lol. Definitely makes the boss fights that much more aggravating.

[@Philpot1992]

Yeah it's something that got gradually improved upon with each entry haha.

[@cottonandballs]

The runback in Demon's Souls is kinda nut, but it gets shorter in newer games. I definitely recommend Elden Ring before any other Souls game because it doesn't have nonsense like running through a poison lake every time you die to a boss or ranged snipers who insta-proc you with poison. They're all wonderful games but I think it's best to start with Elden Ring to build up your outrage resistance.

[@magicmanscott40k]

You can usually out run the enemies and they can't enter the boss room. You can't outrun every enemy though so those you have to clear. And after playing the souls series again, demon souls was a chore to play. The other ones have a lot more freedom

[@Baybren]

The fighting back does improve in the rest of the Soulsborne games, to the point where I *think* it's possible to just run past enemies to get to most bosses, at least in the Dark Souls games.

[@k2769]

You’re gonna want to start running past enemies and setting up the shortcuts cause souls run backs are way too long

[@Vince_lac]

Dam I hope if he does a hardest boss tier list he brings up sigrun Valkyrie queen. I think it took him almost 2 hours to beat her
