Damn you Sister Friede.

ID: hgfch50

My all time favourite boss ever to this day. Her lore, her dialogue, her design, everything about that fight sequence is perfect. She’s up there with Lady Maria for me. Iconic.

ID: hgfltow

I'd say Friede was better executed. Maria has a super low health pool and you can parry spam all 3 phases.

When I first fought sister friede with my friend, I remember my exact words were "oh my God that's so beautiful, holy shit it almost one shot me"

"Here's a Titanite Slab for your efforts tho."

ID: hgfme6t

My favourite fight in the entire series. My friends were watching me try to beat the game and didn't tell me about the second phase, which wasn't too much of a surprise as a few bosses had them by that point.

But I was fully celebrating with my controller on the table when the third phase started. Got me real good.

pretty certain I spent longer on friede than any other boss in any game I've ever played

ID: hgel35v

Friede was a real mountain to climb. The surprise when she got up one more time was just crazy

ID: hgekaci

Set my controller down after beating her second phase for the first time. Thought it was over. Boy was I wrong

ID: hgexyi2

I was watching a stream of someone fighting her for the first time. After several attempts he beat the second phase and put his controller down, and the camera just so happened to settle on her body in the background. He was chatting with the viewers and enjoying his victory when she stood up behind him. He just barely had time to say "oh fuck!" and grab his controller before she one shot him. Fucking hilarious.

Edit: Here's the link

My memory wasn't exact but I got the jist of it.

It's the fuckin fakeout with the titanite slab!

"Oh cool, a Titanite Slab! I guess that means the fight's over. Now where's the bonfire?"

When the ashes are two

"Huh?"

A flame alighteth.

"Oh God"

Thou'rt Ash, and fire befits thee, of course...

"Oh fuck"

ID: hgfansz

The titanite slab with the rest of the fake out was just a chef's kiss on the whole fight

What fight is this

You find a surprisingly large cache of healing items and the game autosaves as soon as you leave the room

Fucking resident evil 4 always got me this way

ID: hgfhiuz

Not just healing items, but every single gun you came across up until now. And the room ahead is gigantic and circular, with a rather precise opening in the middle of the ceiling.

ID: hgftblq

The only thing you forgot is the seemingly completely clear path leading both straight to the only exit on the other side of the room and directly under said opening

beats 3rd form

choir sings more latin, drum solo, electric guitars blast in

"Oh no."

ID: hgeka6c

Latin switches to full Opera complete with the glass-shattering voice, drums kick up to beat-backed Rap in a fearsome music music battle of opposing music genres

Battle worn to the point of existence itself being debatable. Entire galaxies lay burning. Then, then finally, after you have burned through all your resources and abilities, then, finally, even the ability to worry itself has burned out.

"A 0% chance of victory? Basically the same as 100%!"

ID: hgezb8g

The lights black out. Acoustic guitar country music starts twanging, and Garth Brooks kicks in your door IRL and starts to beat you up. Is this a final stage or a coincidental home invasion?

latin chanting SEPHIROTH

OH FUCK

Cries in Sekiro Headless Ape

ID: hgepsrx

Ok but what a fucking transition.

You end the fight by using the sword already impaled in him to cut off his head. Then he gets back up, grabs the sword, grabs his own head, places it on the neck, and screams.

ID: hgfaugu

and screams

He's not the only one, I have some very real feelings about that phase haha. Seeing him later in the depths with the bend-over-backward-no-head-stare made me quit the game for the evening

ID: hgeuu0x

god sekiro has to be one of the best games ever made imo. Just so fucking good man.

I prefer the Hades method. More guitars!

ID: hgeyvyl

I love the flavor text for the sheet music"banned for too many notes per second"

ID: hgeik2k

My first thought was Hades as well. I barely squeaked past the final boss the first time I beat him, I was terrified he was going to get back up yet again...

ID: hgelhbn

Try extreme measures 4 then if you haven't already.

FRIEDE! BRING ME MY FLAIL

11 : Anonymous2021/10/12 23:30 ID: hgf21ax

I remember it vividly. I had to leave for work in 10 minutes. I walk in the room to fight lady butterfly. The fight was grueling and I barely managed to finish her off with a couple minutes to spare before work. Phase 2 starts. I turn off my xbox and go to work in a bad mood lol.

Fuckin Friede

I have PTSD from the Kingdom Hearts Ansem fight.

So...much...unskippable...dialogue...

Dear devs,

If your high-difficulty boss fight is prefaced by more than five seconds of unskippable dialogue, and your auto-save point is before that dialogue, you haven't finished designing this boss fight yet.

Sincerely,

Everyone

ID: hgf2rsk

The final mix version rerelease (in the HD versions for modern consoles) added skippable cutscenes. A godsend.

I remember being completely in awe saying something like "Are they literally singing this dude's name??" as I scrolled through menus frantically looking for that Ultima spell... felt like I had really accomplished something that night...might have been morning by then who knows...
