Dat Simon's theme at the climax of the battle though.

it's definitely not as bombastic as some of the other games, but i wouldn't call it a disappointment, they bothered to change up his moveset when his face changes at least.

>Mother 1
>Boss is an alien baby who's your half-brother
>Kill it with singing

>>3823358
too cheesy you think

>>3823571
Earthbound had the same problem. Awesome fight and it ends by using one of the least fun abilities in the game.

Last boss of Tales of Eternia had a change of heart after she was defeated then dies from evisceration from a gravity beam.

>boomerang and 95 hearts
u fuckin cheeser

One of the best boss death animations ever, though.

Gunstar Heroes, you get through an endless boss rush just to face a robot controlled by gems that is easy as fuck

Funny you mention that, his theme is called Requiem of Captain Mozzarella.

This garbage in Solar Jetman. You spend the whole game in your fancy little ship that has shields and can move all kinds of directions. You gather upgrades and fuel all while nimbly fighting the occasional enemy. Hell, even if your ship blows up you can fly your little astronaut dude around. You spend this whole game gathering up the golden ship parts, which as it turns out is a stinky pile of garbage. One hit and it blows up, no shields, and no mobility. It's like the person who designed the last level was not told what type of game SJ was going to be, so they just made a shitty bullet hell.

Sounds like Castlevania X has hard holes rather than hard bosses.

>>3824170
the bosses are challenging. Compare Kerberos (the first boss on Dracula X) to the dragon (first boss on Rondo).

Not just the boss, the whole last level of Fantasy Zone is a let down. Just a boss rush and then the final boss is just a big version of you that looks dull and is one of the easiest in the whole game.

It's the same fucking boss you already fought in the other episodes.

Ehh, hard to say it's disappointing, even if easier than expected some final bosses are still very satisfying to fight.
A lot of RPG's come to mind regarding this.
>FF6
FF6's is very easy but still a lot of fun to play through, especially because of the music, makes it feel so epic. Let's not forget the awesome build up beforehand, the conversation with Kefka.
>FF9
In FF9 as long as you have the right immunity abilities equipped, you will have no trouble at all, particularly immunity to Freeze, Stop, and Confuse. Pretty sure that's it, it's been a while.
>FF1
Chaos is pretty easy. Honestly I think that fight has more to do with luck, depends what attacks he uses on you.
>Breath of Fire 1
If you got the final dragon form it's literally just Mash A button to win, but it still seems pretty epic, being a big overpowered dragon that does max damage with every hit.
>Phantasy Star 2
Mother Brain is easier than Dark Force, but she's still a lot of fun to fight. Also, dat music.
>Phantasy Star 3
I was overpowered when I got to the final boss in this so all I did was spam attack button and I won.
>Phantasy Star 4
Three forms of fun and cool music.


It doesn't matter if a final boss is easy, what matters is the presentation and the atmosphere of it. I'm not saying I prefer easy final bosses, I just don't have any problem with it as long as it's done right.

>Good game
Pick one.

The last levels are pretty much the reason I somewhat like Castlevania 4, because the rest of the game is kinda meh

>FF7
>Cloud kills Sephiroth with one stab

Deus Ex bosses. They mostly die from at crowbar to the back of the head or from a rocket. The final boss doesn't even need to be fought.

>Secret of Evermore
>You don't even to get to kill the last boss.
>The professor sneaks up behind the villain and flips off the switch on his back to disable him.

>The Incredible Hulk
>The leader just stands in front you harmlessly and lets you upper cut him.

Demona and the Eye. For all the tough shit the game puts you through, and get to the final level, you fight 3 dogs that you can stun lock from behind, lest they eat your shit. then all she does is float there and spawn guns that are rendered useless if you're literally anywhere except the platform. all it takes are a few downward strikes until the second form. repeat the same strategy but you just have to dodge a little now. two hits and you win.

>>3823297
if you wanted it to be more difficult, why did you use the cheat?

Almost all of the classic FPS games; Doom 1-2, Duke Nukem 3d, Quake...
