The Unidentified Naytiba was the worst, but nothing ever made me throw a controller.
Lady-Maya on
Raven was the only one i actually struggled with, had to drop the difficulty.
Learned how to just stun lock enemies since and use that to beat everyone now.
Only issue is the random catch outs and dying in two hits with no chance heal or properly react.

Nobody. The bosses are way too easy to clear unfortunately. They are super well designed and awesome to fight, don’t get me wrong, just too easy overall. I stopped using beta and burst skills by the Stalker fight and only played defense since, using my beta/burst energy for counters only.
I’m on my first NG+ run now and I’m doing every boss hitless to make it more interesting. Also stopped upgrading the blade somewhere around 800 damage (the soft cap is 1000 iirc) so that also makes the fights a bit longer and more demanding.
I’d have loved more complex attack chains from bosses that don’t stop after 3-4 hits and also mix in more attack types. There is literally only one attack chain in the game that I can recall (on the final boss) that has a blue circle and when you succeed it, you don’t get the blink but instead the boss counters and there’s a purple circle after it. Too many attack chains have like 2-3 regular hits and then a yellow/blue/purple circle at the end. Imagine a big red circle series of 6-7 rapid regular attacks into blue circle, but oh no the boss counters and you gotta dodge a yellow circle and then they fly into you with another short series of regular attacks etc. etc.
And yeah, yeah, something something Sekiro. Yes, Sekiro’s brilliant, but I like this 😛

Unidentified Naytiba could fuck off with always flying away before I could hit it

None, I played dark souls 3, bloodborne, sekiro, elden ring, among other difficult games, so I was mentally prepared for any kind of tilt this game could cause.

I’m pretty sure some people in this sub threw their controller after getting the fisherman’s dream costume for Eve. 😏

Definetly Raven.
ProgrammerHorror1283 on
That alpha naytiba from the prologue, raven, then the elder naytiba… So, basically, the last 3 bosses. I had to put the game to “story” difficulty because of these f**ks. 😂

I didn’t throw but accidentally cracked and stick drifted my fucking Spider-Man 2 exclusive controller (by squeezing the sides and pushing them inwards out of rage lmao). It was a combination of that damn Unidentified Naytiba boss bullshit that pissed me off to no end. I did great until that point. And the other fight being the damn Providence battle, shit was even more impossible and the sides slit. It’s very subtle to look at unless your eyes are practically on the controller but when I hold it you can feel it.
It’s bad because I already have my standard PS5 controller that I also slit and broke (you can hear noise from it lol) but idk which game made me do that tbh. Maybe Returnal since it was my first ever (and forever only) roguelike? I’m not too sure. A lot of games have made me break controllers (have 2 broken Wii controllers, 3 ps4 controllers too) over the years but I’ve only had 2 PS5 ones so far.

Demoncrawler gave me trouble, but Providence made me drop the difficulty.
I can appreciate it now, but I just wanted to beat the game originally and see the ending. That thing is tough.
Stratis127 on
Surprisingly, I’ve taken a break after making to the Elder. The others weren’t so bad.
slimecog on
are you ten years old? throwing controllers? yikes, nothing to brag about 🤡
DismalMode7 on
bosses are quite easy if you ask me… first peak is the naytiba form of raven, but reasonable defeatable since its moveset is repetitive and easy to read. Raven boss fight was hard but fair, it reminded me the nameless puppet but faster and with a way extended range.
The 2 final bosses are broken, they have too many hp and providence damage output is just ridiculous… I managed to defeat it only setting the game in story mode otherwise I don’t think I were good enoug for that despite my long experience of actions and souls games.
codespaghet on
Democrawler was relatively hard but SUCH a good fight!
DragonLancePro on
I didn’t find any of the bosses particularly difficult. The stalker bosses never gave me trouble because I fought it so many times in the demo I had all possible patterns memorized.
Hardest bosses for me were Raven and Providence. Raven’s OST made the fight enjoyable, so Providence was the most annoying by default. But that was to be expected, he was the final boss.
Elder Naytiba actually made me frustrated though on my second playthrough. Dude’s attacks are just off by a second for me, so I just kept getting hit. Actually had to use a pump to finish the fight. The caveat there being I was fighting the boss at 3:30 AM after playing the game for 6 hours straight, so I probably wasn’t in the best condition and just wanted the fight to be over.
cjay2212 on
Besides the usual suspects I actually had a hard time with the optional Brute in the forbidden Area at my first playthrough… but nothing killed a controller 😃
If you’re looking for a potential full tilt experience, try fighting the Elder without beta/burst skill in hard mode…

I hated everything about providence. But every other end game boss I loved

No none of the bosses made me throw the controller. Sure I made plenty of mistakes but managed to beat them.
The SB bosses aren’t Gna. That fight was a pain in the ass for me.

Honestly, it wasn’t a boss but the green lasers in spire. In theory, it was so easy to get through, but I’m such a spaz, I couldn’t keep her from getting blocked in by boxes and triggering them, or accidentally sprinting in to one. I was so mad, I almost uninstalled.
BadDreamInc on
I don’t throw controllers, they’re expensive. But the Unknown Naytiba probably felt the most BS.
jurisdoc85 on
Nothing. In the grand scheme of things, there was some challenge, but all of it was completely manageable and much easier than other games (such as Returnal).

Raven and The final boss definitely had a spike in difficulty but not enough to make me want to throw a controller, most of the other bosses I was able to beat in one try

I didn’t throw my controller but THE RAVEN BOSS FIGHT GOT ME HEATED. Took me 15 tries till I beat it when every other boss took 2-3 attempts 💀

Zapzapbuffallo on
The only game I raged at (it was rather calm, it was a calm rage) was sekiro sword saint isshin. I literally snapped my controller in half or at least the plastic housing. I got alittle frustrated at raven but that made the game more fun because I realized the kiddie gloves were off.

But Raven and the mech both shook my confidence a little bit before I got their movesets down.

I haven’t beaten the game yet. I assume my next place is space, but nothing has made me upset yet. As a dark souls player, this game is much easier, but it has more plot than all souls series combined if you know what I mean.🥴 The hardest boss was the first one as I was still learning controls.
Hunt_Nawn on
None tbh, I actually enjoyed all the fights. I guess due to me playing so many hard games, the game was smooth and chill even in Hard Mode for me at least. What angered me was the damn fall damage/lazers so I guess that’s the enemy that makes me want to throw my controller haha.
Axyun on
Didn’t throw the controller but only Raven and Providence started to get me a touch frustrated. Most other bosses I was able to kill in 1-2 attempts. But I also played the hell out of the demo so I was really comfortable with the core mechanics.
