>final boss is a game of cat and mouse with a giant golden glowing glob of cum who can one shot you from the other side of the map, then as soon as you get near him he flies away

who's idea was this garbage

is it like a fromsoft tradition for the last boss to be the worst experience of an otherwise great game

>>718705671 (OP)
Was the fight improved or ruined by that patch? Pretty wild to completely change the final boss like that

>>718706365
adding torrent didn't really change much because beast still flies away

>>718705671 (OP)
I thought it was cool but sometimes I'm more interested in the spectacle of a fight than how much time I get to wail on the boss.

>>718706053
so true. anyone remember the fuckfest that was the final """boss""" of DS2?

>>718706459
aesthetically it was very beautiful and climactic. but it's the type of difficulty that's more frustrating than fun

>>718706365
torrent makes the fight too easy. it's clearly not designed to have it. but whiny babies want their easy mode for a boss that isn't just humanoid knight guy number 4304589

Gwyn and Soul of Cinder are the exceptions, FromSoft loves to do "victory lap" bosses, with the real final boss coming before

>>718705671 (OP)
Not a problem anymore since they added the ability to summon the horse (as it should have been from the very start) when Shadow of the Erdtree dropped
Fight went from a 4/10 to a 9/10

>>718706053
Huh? DeS the emperor saved the game for me. DS1 Gwen was my fav, DS2 you are correct but Ivory king was GOAT, DS3 ember is top 10%, Sekiro final was best, and BB final was topm20%, with Orphan being the best.

>>718706617
this is a myth. torrent doesnt make the fight much better. the golden cum still teleports across the map like a cunt

>>718707041
Give me your cum!

>>718707041
>debunked. recent studies show that the elden beast fight is worse with torrent, actually. heres how the Black Lives Matter movement plays into it...

>>718707041
What I am getting from this is that even with easy mode enabled, you got your ass kicked and are salty about it.

>>718707041
Yeah and the horse still allows you to catch up to him faster than ever

>crying about Elden Beast in the year (of Our Lord) 2025

>>718707174
and guess what happens when i get to him? i hit it twice then it flies away AGAIN. and then on your way towards him, he does his dumb attacks that cover rolls because of all the lingering hitboxes

>>718707632
Works on my machine

>giant golden glowing glob of cum

>>718707673
maybe i'm not doing enough damage. i dont know. should be. i have moonlight +10

I always thought this boss was hard until I did a magic playthrough and got the meteor spell, whatever it's called where you throw purple rocks at him.

>>718707751
when frustrated, i use alliteration to mock things that annoy me

>>718706053
>I-is that le heckin' plin plin plon? ZOMG its a reference to a game I never played!

>>718707785
Nigga, like another anon said on this thread, the Elden Beast is a victory lap kind of boss
He's fucking easy, just like Moon Presence
I can't even comprehend how you could even die against this boss, even more so now that you can summon the horse
It's not rocket science

>Final boss is goated
Miyazaki did it again

>>718708014
i found fire giant, dodfrey, gideon, placideux, and other late game bosses easier than elden beast.

>>718708194
Even Malenia?
I don't believe you
Malenia still rocks my shit to this day, meanwhile I have never died a single time against Elden Beast

>>718708360
malenia is a fucking joke if youre smart enough to use mimic tear

>>718708360
not malenia, no. she's the hardest boss in the game bar none. i dont know, maybe it's a play style thing but beast is rocking my shit and some of these other late game bosses i found moderate.

>>718706053
Yeah, I thought Elden Beast was good as a final boss by FROM standards. FROM like to do more cinematic/thematic sendoffs for Souls games, and having Elden Beast as the 'come-down' after Radagon worked really well IMO. I mean look at the rest of their final bosses
>Slug Allant
>Gwyn, Parrybait of Cinder
>Nashandra/Aldia
>Gehrman is a great last boss, but Mergo's Wetnurse and Moon Presence are both meme fights
>Soul of Cinder is actually good

And don't reply to this with some retarded faggot post saying "False King/Manus/Raime/etc. was the real last boss of [game]!" By that logic you can say that Radagon is the 'real' last boss, and he's a great fight.

you didnt beat the game

All this talk about cum got me thinking about Ranni

Miyazaki-sama's. What a dumb question.

>>718706053
Isshin was one of the best fights in Sekiro, same with SoC in DS3, and even Gwyn in DS1, at least from my pov because I didn't think to try parrying him.
