We came a long way from ranking the grippiest (J. Cole would be proud). Real shit I always liked the funny content but seeing this side of you has been really rewarding too. You're a great writer and have some really interesting insights. Can't wait to hear you cover Shadow of the Erdtree!

LIST SPOILERS AHEAD I think your list is completely fair and an excellent ranking overall. I'm surprised you don't like Sister Friede that much though. I find her to be one of the most enjoyable fights in the entire series. She was like the first Malenia to me. I think the amazement I had after finishing the second phase for the time and getting a titanite slab as a reward, thinking that the fight was over, only to have her stand up.... AGAIN, was one the best moments I've ever had in soulsbourne. Easy top 10 for me personally. Also I'd put Isshin number 1, but Gael is still a great choice. I just think Isshin is the most perfect fight From has ever made.

@daruddock 18 күн бұрын

Sword Saint Ishin is perfection as far as I'm concerned; the absolute refinement of Sekiro's mechanics with FromSoft's signature demanding yet rewarding gameplay. He alone would raise any game to a much higher standard by his inclusion.

Imma be honest i didnt watch anything after i saw u put godskin duo in f tier in the first 5 min :D Respectfully i say this i dont understand how somewhere in that list the gargoyle duo in elden ring is somehow over the godskin fight. Imo the godskin duo fight without summons or sleep pots is a really good skill test. U have pillars in the arena , u can force certain attacks with imput reads (u heal at the right distance to force em to fireball, roll into it and full heavy charge) . U can space them properly to have windows for proper 1v1s , they also are more passive as there are 2 alive. Once u kill one the fight gets more eazier too. U can get the fat one stuck on a pillar as he rolls and hit him with good spacing and decent size weapon as he is rolling. U can still damage the HP bar as u kill one while he is in the dying animation.Idk the whole fight i like a lot , i dont understand the hate for it at all. I say this respectfully to you.

Only thing I completely disagree with is Fortissax, E tier boss. And on waterfowl in phase 1 it sort of acts a deterrent for the player to whale on her because of how easily staggered she is and because in phase 1 the move has like a 1 minute cool-down until she can’t next use you then know that you are safe to whale on her again . This is thrown out the window in phase 2 though because she is then able to spam it

Your critique throughout this video of “This boss would have been gassed in DS1 or 2 or 3” is kinda weird when you can say that about almost any decent boss in a future game going back to a older one. For example if you put Vordt of the boreal valley in DS1 people would say he’s a good boss, but that’s a no brainer because it’s a future boss with more polished move set. Just a weird defense of Elden Ring’s copy paste design you can use for almost anything if you want. A great video still I just thought that was odd.

So many people say true king Allant is bad but like, why? He shows you the sad state of the real king allant opposed to the heroic old king allant we fought previously. It’s not even like the presence of king allant robs you of a grand final fight, that’s already supplied by old king allant.
