Yeah, they really bumped up the difficulty in that last stretch but I loved it

I beat the game yesterday. Those last 4 bosses seriously test your skill

​@mccuish normally I get mad if a boss kicks my ass a lot, but when i got to raven last night and died a bunch of times I just accepted my losses without anger (except when she judgement cuts me because I couldn't figure out the dodge timing). I figured out as soon as I saw I was fighting a hot woman with a sword that slow walks towards me that the fight was just supposed to be hard as fuck. That's just how badass hot women with swords as boss fights are ya know? You're gonna get fucked sideways, might as well enjoy the ride lol. I was surprised I actually beat her that night before bed. Pretty much beat the last 4 bosses in just 1 sitting. Time flew passed me

What skill check? once you know how to parry everything else is a cakewalk.

@@jackjohnson8305 don’t be that guy. Don’t act like Raven (both her and the unidentified Naytiba version), Elder Naytiba, and Providence don’t throw attacks A LOT faster than every other boss in the game including attacks that you can’t parry in quick succession. You may have had an easier time, but they were absolutely still skill checks.

It is majestuous

Also Bossa Nova, Jazz, Ballads. The quality and diversity is off the charts. So good.

@@Liam-pi9vi Indeed

K-pop already is just a mixing pot of genres anyway. 😂 I love that Northeast Asian pop is keeping music more interesting than pop of the west.

24 tries later: man this boss was ez

Same but only on Hard Mode for me. I hope the game will get a boss rush mode too!

@@knucklemasterE57 Boss rush mode was already confirmed by the CEO of SHIFT UP, they're currently working on it.

@@Eishern aw, HELL YEAH! Photo mode too? Thanks for letting me know btw. =D

@@knucklemasterE57 can't find any information regarding a photo mode, sorry. And you're welcome :)

Motherspheeeeaaaaaaaarrr isaaalliiiiaaaaaaaaarrr

But the cake isn't 🙂

same energy as "i'm a surgeon, i'm a surgeon"

If we count playing the game, then it's the 3rd. This specific song stood out.

How did he knew?!?! 0o0

Thanks 😊

For now its my first time.till next we meet

This is like my 16th time if we're counting the 11 times I had to fight her. This track goes hard.

That battle the ultimate parry training lol

The battle is do you have skill issues or not kek 💀

She was not fucking around.

The boss fight is so good that fighting her for so long was insane even if i got mad sometimes, i kinda felt like in 2019 with Isshin in Sekiro.

Only 2 hrs? Not bad

Stellar Blade: oh and she's nuts btw

And she's part Naytiba on top of that

Oh and did we mention that she's basically a somewhat nerfed female Virgil? Yeah, have fun. ^-^

Raven is the First Eve basically.

I love how unhinged Raven's dialogues are, like, why are you laughing suddenly woman? Are you fr?

I totally thought she was going to keep her sword and we would unlock a "dual wield" skill tree/spec. Granted the tree would have had to be like 1 ability but still :D

Even without her skills I would've loved to get her sword, cause I honestly think Eve's sword is extremely boring. And it sucks, cause it's the only one we get (except for Tachy mode, but that doesn't really count).

​@@IHMyselfit cracks me up the fact that Eve's Sword is literally a Hair clip and i'm not taking about the fact that she stores her Sword on her hair, i'm talking about how the shape of her Sword is literally a Giant hair clip, i realized when i was looking through my stuff and found a Hair clip that looks exactly like Eve's sword

I mean…EVE was PISSED…My name is EVEnigo Montoya. You killed Tachy. Prepare to die.

​@@Are_You_Happy_We_Made_LoveOh, well that's kinda cool, lol.

100% agree with you. Eve vs Raven + this ost = ABSOLUTE BANGER

Best fight and music match in the game. My favorite of the year. Laxasia the complete in Lies of P with that OST was also super sick last year.

⁠@@lucasc9142exactly. Laxasia and Raven are both the highlight of both games for me aswell. Absolutely amazing fights.

100% agreed. the drama just before the fight adds to it too

Fr

Guilty 😂

I just stayed back to watch her walk to me, she always pulls that warp 4 hit if she has to walk to you and you don’t move but I just let her walk to me to watch her supermodel walk.

Eve's slow walk animation changes to match Raven's only in that exact moment. Incredible attention to detail!

Fuck that. I ran up with anger after she killed me with 3 hits 😂

Raven: “Oh, so you’re approaching me?”

man 💀

It should’ve been me 😔

Man of culture as well.

Also when she knees you in the face and then kicks you like a dog.

This comment makes me think you died to Raven a few more times than you should have, and not because of the difficulty of the fight.

nah FF7 will likely get it, it's very impressive.

@@weirdo7319 the FF7 soundtrack is iconic and incredible(especially the rebirth version).. but the stellar blade OST stucks in my head way harder

Nah like a dragon infinite wealth or ff7 rebirth but that’s just my opinion

I really want it to go to this game but it's gonna be hard competition with P3 Reload, Metaphor re fantazio coming in October and FF7 rebirth. Honestly if any of those win I'm not mad

Between FF7Reb, LaD Infinite Wealth, P3 Reload or the upcoming SMT V: Vengeance for me lol This should definitely be nominated though, there’s some genuine bangers in SB.

Her and her Monster form are the best yes

Democrawler and tachy were amazing too. Democrawler is one that actually really surprised me. I'm not much of a big monster boss kind of guy. Usually don't like them due to lack of personality, style, swagger, etc. This boss looking like a tumor with an arm wasn't helping it. But the moveset, music especially, and the way it developed it's moveset to be like some outer god of lovecraftian or bloodborne nature with this divine music backing it up was just incredible. Definitely top 3 bosses of the game no matter who's list

One of the best bosses in gaming history imo, absolute adrenaline rush

Yes

My Keyhole Suit Eve would like to argue about that. Her sword was definitely much cooler though

I'll give you MATURE

@@LordTactusMe Raven even doesn't need a sexy suit to be more hot than Eve xD

@@aoao3340I think Eve is still really pretty, but man Raven and Tachy are so much hotter imo

@@aoao3340 Raven’s own suit is sexy enough but they should allow us to change Raven’s outfit to one of Eve’s like we can dress the Drone, Lily and Adam.

Telenovela taken up a notch.

I’m a dude too and I felt like that too. I was like “this is what it feels like to be a female!” “THATS MY MAN BITCH IM TURNING U INTO A VEGETABLE!” 😂😂😂😂😂😂

​@@lachancla3723 Telenovelas if they were interesting

it was insane awe despite her crazy personality she instantly gets so much love from us awe

I was impressed by the fact that not a single strand of hair was cut

Come on, think about it. You can't be the only super soldier who can parry.

She ain't countering my Shock Wave. I used that as my finisher move lol.

While I love bosses that are just "your character, but with a few extra moves", I am VERY happy her counters didn't do much damage. The first time I saw her yeet my ass back to the ground and kick me like a football trying to shield breaker combo her, I was just like "oh..."🤣

I actually loved that they even took the time to make a whole animation/cutscene for her parrying

@@HoodWeegee they dont do any damage actually, thank god

"COSTA NIKO" Intensifies

Same, I definitely wasn't losing on purpose or anything...

me too died like 16 times not losing on purpose as well.

same brotha got an cloud save just for that boss fight kek

Yeah not the difficulty spike. For the song 100% haha. I was bummed after I beat it and couldn’t do it again… they need boss rush in this game or a nier automata chapter replay type thing! That would be amazing.

@@lucasc9142ShiftUp is actually working on a boss rush.

This is a hood classic…we at least died bopping our heads

@@Xer0deaths Died once against her, got to hear the song again - so didn't even mind. LMAO

It would actually make sense in the story too because it looks like Alpha Naytibas have their own agendas and not always on the same side. And who knows how many years Raven has been working with Adam before Eve arrives on earth. It can be Raven working with Adam to kill other factions of Alpha Naytibas.

we could get a dlc similar to the one of jetstream Sam and play during her mission

I've to admit, that would be a pretty cool DLC before an sequel, to see / experience Raven's PoV.

Raven was such a out of nowhere skill check but it was so satisfying once you beat her

The 2nd Gigas totally bodied me since I fought it so early, but this one was way more satisfying because it was all skill-based. Fighting against your own endgame kit is always a win.

1st Raven's monster form, then Raven, then the mecha (haven't fought Adam yet for the other ending). The last bosses really kept escalating the difficulty.

@@NakedRadishYeah, Providence goes wild.

The mecha boss in ending and 2nd abaddon is the 2 i die alot

Ravens feet 😋

Nah, Tachy dlc or prequel playing as Tachy

Stellar Blade: Broken Wings

This could’ve done a Nier:Automata and done different routes as Raven and her POV, and Tachy, build up her character and her relationship with EVE.

@@MadBeastTitan Having a DLC for a character with literally two seconds of screen time. What are you down syndrome?

Sassy af. 😂

Soooo badass

Me : OMG look at that sassy ass walk she knows she’s about to whoop my ass 😂😂😂

Supermodel style walks to you..... Menacingly

Every time I had to restart the fight I did the walk too and it made the scene way better both of them walking and met to attack.

Or playable in a sequel. Either one works.

@@RicochetForce True, she isn't out of the picture.

@@RicochetForceI feel like we may get a couple short segments of Raven for some backstory and then we go back to present time with Eve. Either way, just want more of this game.

raven mode

Too soon

I can fix her

I’m pretty sure she’d rather have died lol.

Definitely need her in the sequel or a prequel.

😂

*23 times in a row, draining all the money I was wondering what I ever need it for in the game.

I listened to that line like 40 times before defeating Raven lol

25 fights: absolutely obliterated 26th fight: WTF she only hit me once

​@@cortynnightshade😂 only game I've ever played where I was actually a little nervous about running out of end game money

Stockholm Syndrome.

Because this jam is that damn good.

Now that the boss rush is out, I just saw a screenshot of one of the devs beating her on hard mode with minimal upgrades and no heals in less than 3 minutes. Literally insane.

​@@cornelllevi1Devs see people struggling with her, and decided to show that they have skill issues instead of nerfing the boss

Serioiusly, it would be so exciting to play as Raven and see how she discovered the truth and left those records for others to find.

No shame in that, I had to do it too lol but the song is fire 🔥

I lost around ten times before I decided to not attack. I would solely parry until I had her fully read. Eventually I didn't even notice she was almost dead and I just unleashed every burst and beta skills I had on her 😂

Bro thank god I’m not the only one lmaooo

​@@TokyoMystifyyeah thats the way...tachy mode also when she reached 20% health

@@TokyoMystify yeah once you realize that she attacks the moment you hit her once, it becomes much easier. The hard part just becomes keeping up with the reads on what can and can't be parried in her second phase and punishing it right. The amount of times I've died forgetting she has an attack after her version of burst tempest or misreading her shooting the wave beams at me...

너무 밝아서(?) 전투랑 안어울린다는 말도 있는데 해당 캐릭터의 정신세계를 대변하는 곡 색깔이라고 생각함. 곡 전개자체가 일단 정상적이지가 않음ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

중2병 똘끼환자 레이븐 정신세계랑 정말 잘맞는 곡임

Me too … I used Tachy Mode on that fight whenever I could 😂

@@zy2239 I didn’t my first time cause I was loving the music playing so I avoided using Tachy Mode.

Severed arms and exospine? Good luck my friend

​@@openshores4288 I mean we did manage to repair a girl with no body so I don't see why not.

@@DMindGaming we definitely are going to see Raven again when they make a sequel

She's the literal definition of Mommy Issues, you are going to need more than just physical repairs LOL

@@LyBryGnahh all 3 ending lead to mother sphere is the true villain, maybe even gonna team up with raven and be like “you know what u right mother sphere is kinda crazy lets kill her” plan

Lmao !!! Big facts. Those swings are diabolical. I was happy to get away with the dub when I did, seriously.

Providence hits like a fuckin truck, I definitely have a harder time with it than Raven

Agreed, Raven killed me at least twice. But Providence killed me 20 times before i could beat it.

Yeah that mech swings was disgusting hardest boss for me

Eve holds her Exospine too

Definitely has to happen, so many people requesting for this.

raven and tachy dlcs would be so cool

If Raven is Vergil then Tachy is Sephiroth lol

I also hope she appears in the sequel, because we all know she is still alive.

Or iunno, Stellar Blade prequel featuring Raven :D

Who she meant by him ?

@@Jmora122 SPOILER: Adam

Her playstyle is basically Eve but more backstabbing like the mf backstabber that she is, sprinkled with some of Eve’s beta/burst skills.

Shes the Maliketh of stellar blade, of couse shes cool

Eve is honestly the least interesting in both design and personality out of all the ones like her we meet in the game, Tachy and Raven pop out a lot more.

As much as I love Eve, that straight cut in the front of her hair will never not be goofy on women. It makes them look like little girls. Raven and Tachy had natural long hair and my god it makes them look like total babes. ​@@kannyboy1847

10 times it was her battle😢

I think that this is the only moment that i didn´t like the music choice of the game, before stoning me hear me out, i do like the music, it´s very good, i just didn´t feel like it fit the story at that moment, the boss fight started and i though for a second that Raven would start a Kpop dance choreography instead of fighting lol

@@Gabrielfrota haha, yeah, I can definitely see that. That's sort of how I felt at first about the music in general. Like, I liked it, but it felt sort of weird and out of place because it wasn't really the kind of music you'd expect to score a video game a lot of the time. I stopped caring about that pretty quickly though, appreciated the music for what it was, and it began to feel like it actually did kind of fit.

​@@NegativeNazzythe ost is really reminiscent of Neir Automata's music. a lot of orchestral/piano and operatic singing. felt like it fit the desperation and desolation of a post apocolyptic world of machines and monsters, kinda like Neir

whatever makes you feel good, buddy

cudowny xddd sounds like weird that is čudný in Slovak

神曲ですよね

Cross slash knocks down every boss in the game. It’s insanely busted

Haha I feel you. But never got tired of the song though. Got her 2nd try on first playthrough and then got obliterated 30+ times in NG+ hard mode haha.

Eve- “Raven!”

“hahaha…ha!” -also Raven

"Mother Sphere" - Raven

"But for him..." - also Raven
