Are bosses too video gamey? Do they have a place in modern gaming?
I'm of the opinion that they do have a place as they are more often than not really fun to fight, but not everyone seems to agree. Some people seem to think that bosses are a thing of the past, so I want to start a debate about them.
Your opinion is absolutely abysmal so I'll just say that I want Bowser to fuck me.

But I do get your point. I'm into fightans so I don't like cheap bosses very much.
I love when the boss is just a regular character with insanely hard CPU.

I said I do believe that bosses are a big part of gaming. I also said that OTHER people however do not necessarily share that view and I want to discuss that.
I have never found bosses fun. I can't think of a single that I enjoyed fighting. One of the main reasons Kazooie is superior to Tooie is lack of bosses on every level. Although you do have to fight Grunty, the quiz show was something unique and very fun to do.

>too "video gamey"
I think he used the wrong term. It's played out. It's hackneyed.
>Watch for bosses attack pattern
>Dodge the attacks
>Does the boss have a move that I have to use against him?
>Wait for him to use specific move, throw back his ammunition against him
>Attack him in this weakened state
>Repeat
>Each cycle gets faster
It's formulaic and tedious. Sure, every boss fight doesn't go that way, but the bosses never feel actually powerful, they're more like a giant prop. I prefer overworld exploration, collecting, small-scale puzzle solving, side quests, finding secrets (unfortunately very few modern games include these).
