So just to scale something there. A lot of people don’t realize that you aren’t falling through the earth during the last part of the fight. Titan lost was so massive and you were so high up in the air that you are actually falling through his body which is also falling out of the sky.

Dunno why this didn't dawn on me earlier, but Clive is carrying the world's only known Phoenix Down.

Clive absolutely rocketed up my "Fave FF characters" list the moment Ifrit busted out a damn Rider Kick

As has been said on other videos of this fight: This game is Devil May Asura: Reveangeance Wrath Fantasy XVi, where nearly every boss is the Final boss. And its one of the best damn things you've ever seen.

Titan Lost went from a Pepsiman running sequence to God of War format battle with Devil Gundam sitting inside a crater like Shin Dragon, defeated by a Rider Kick, split in half by Casshern, dropping down into the planet like Gandalf vs Balrog and ending with a Jojo punching sequence. The game started out making you think you're playing a serious Game of Thrones inspired game, but no this is the most anime FF ever made by far, with every battle referencing shounen anime and manga.

Titan fight might not necessarily be difficult, but goddamn it's a spectacle to behold!

Biggest betrayal in an Final Fantasy game-having a desert area without a fucking *CACTUAR!* What happened, Yoshi-P?! 😭

Titan pushing the collapsing walls of Titan Lost as the music swells up is one of the greatest gaming experiences I’ve ever had. This game transcended and made me feel things no other video game has made me feel before

When I fought Titan the first time I was like "THIS IS AWESOME! There is no way they can top this!". And then they did. Twice in fact.

Cannot wait until he reaches the next "BIG" fight.

The “this game is over” line is perfect

I really adore the sheer scale of the Titan presentation in this game. One thing I disliked in Asura's Wrath is the inconsistent scaling of the models and visuals (take Vlitra for example). With how powerful the technology have become over the years, they're able to pull shit like this off with in-game engine. It's absolute eye candy.

I can’t believe they put a Sonic Unleashed boss fight in my FF game

Byron in the inn fight was absolutely top tier. Just hopping around with the food without a care. Beautiful. And to top it off, max opens the actual combat with the jojo parry.

The soundtrack for Titian’s phases seriously goes hard especially that I found out that that there are also callbacks to “Under the Weight” in FF 14 by Soken which he added in. The production value of this game is impressive.

All im gonna say is, after playing this game and seeing what they can do with these big fights, the Weapon fights in ff7Rebirth are gonna be some serious mind blowing shit. At least i hope. This games fights are visually wild

Joshua is that one chain smoker colleague from work who always sounds like coughing up a lung, but still insist it's okay

Rewatching the fight with Titan my only question is what was Torgal doing that entire time? I mean such a good boy for knowing to GTFO when eikon stuff starts happening and surviving Titan going big mode destroying the entire mountain around him, then showing back up right next to Clive in the crater.

This fight made me scream out in excitement several times lol. Once the music hit I knew I was playing Devil May Fantasy 7. Truly defines what the game is. Brilliant

This and another fight, no spoilers, are tied for my favorite.

Hugo is in a better place now, the table won't hurt him anymore.

*IFRIT VS TITAN/TITAN LOST is one of the greatest and most jaw dropping boss fights/set pieces in video game history!!* I kept saying throughout the fight(s) that “this is it, it’s not getting any bigger” then the next fight begins and I’m practically begging the game to give me a breather.😅😅😅 I would love to see the reactions of the game developers of God Of War and Asura’s Wrath playing these boss fights.

This game is just amazing. It deserves way more love. The boss fights are just insane

Clive summoning Ifrit really gives off Haseo summoning Skeith vibes and it’s so cool. “Come on, I’m right here!”

Hugo: What must I do to get stronger?! Harbard: Magic Steroids.

2:47:43 - A _ton_ of this game's cinematic combat has moments that are pulled directly from *_Asura's Wrath_* and it feels almost unbelievable.

Wait til you see the next BIG boss fight. These are easily the best boss fights in gaming right alongside God of War 3. Once Clive decided to take on the aether filled titan head on despite it being on the scale millions of mountains he officially reached kratos and ashura level of badassary, awesomeness, and pure fucking RAGE he has for his enemies and how far he will go to get his vengeance. At 2:47:43 this is when it easily became GOTY for me. YoshiP, the combat designer, and all of square Enix deserve the world for delivering this masterfully crafted experience of a game.

Just a quick note for our dear Dood: don't forget that when you're playing as Ifrit you still have access to Burst combos (magic attack after melee attack). Ifrit even has special finishers if you press magic attack again after a magic burst. That means both your ground AND aerial attacks, including the lunge (ground melee + jump) and the pyrosault (aerial melee + jump). Try to experiment for even more awesome looking combos! Other than that, keep at it! Watching you play games you are passionate about is always a treat.

Fun fact. Titan Lost is called Devil Titan in the Japanese version. Further cementing the DMC feelings it gave me.

When the music drops and Titan comes running down the wall toward you, I would be shitting my pants if I were Clive.

The entire fight against Titan was so Asura’s Wrath and I love it all

I think we can all agree that Final Fantasy 16 has some of the best boss fights of gaming this year.

My personal favorite moment In this game. I was actually giggling because I couldn’t believe what was happening. I love this even more than the next big spectacle!😊

I desperately need more of watching Max play this game, eagerly waiting for the next FFXVI stream like a kid for Christmas

I love that the Eikon fights aren't just big cinematic set pieces and you do need to focus on them as much as you do regular fights

Best boss in the entire game for me right now. From start to finish I just kept getting wowed and stuck in awe in every phase Titan lost was crazy, an insane spectacle that legit feels like a next generation fight. And that surprise third phase of going in mid air and then ending it all with this crazy ass rapid punch clash, god damn dude. What a fight Absolutely my #1 at the moment

After i fought titan lost it made me think about the future of ff7, when part 3 does come out imagine the weapon boss fights

Clive “Mr. Steal your Girl” Rosfield 😂

This is one of the best boss fights I've ever seen, and experienced !

Hearing that DMC style music while engaging in that MASSIVE battle was so fun! And then the operatic remix of that second song, holy fuck. One of the most fun and epic boss fights I've ever played. WOW. Like, this fight was so epic that I had tears in my eyes. They really pulled out all the stops for this game. Makes you wonder how they'll manage to top this boss fight when you're only about halfway through the story.

Joshua is easily one of the most badass characters ever, he's written so fucking well whenever he's on screen everyone has to STFU and listen.

1:53:15 is great because the system max is describing is literally in xenoblade 1. Completing side quests raises your affinity with that area, which unlocks new armor and weapons to trade from any named npc (along with being able to trade more materials and enemy drops with them to forego farming them out in the map). There are 9 different armor sets (and a bunch of bonus sets from completing time trial challenges, but thats not important), and 3 color variations for each set. Some of the harder pieces to find are best gotten by trading with npcs rather than trying to get a 2% drop from some enemy. There's 5 different body slots for armor that can all be mixed and matched, and whatever you equip visibly changes your characters appearance in every cutscene in short, when can simmons bug max enough to finally play xenoshits

How many of us skipped to the end to see his reaction to the Titan fight? 2:36:15 W video!

This is my favorite fight in the game. This fight was PERSONAL between Hugo and Clive and you are throwing hands with him majority of the time. Straight clashing it out to the finish and destroying everything. 💯💪🏾

Layout artists that set up the camera work for the Inn cinematic scenes did their homework and it looked great.

Just finished this game a few hours ago and holy moly what an insane ride it is. ❤️‍🔥

the music for Titan Lost is SO Powerman 5000 is hurts, I love it

Max’s Ass is not ready for the next summon fight!!!

I feel like once you get this game and that the combat is not meant to be as complex as Dark Souls but more about making the fights feel more epic from a cinematic perspective, this game really is a masterpiece of story telling in gaming. I am even starting to get the metaphor behind Clive taking down all the mother crystals. This game is about moving on from the dependency of the past of this series and learning how to embrace change and moving forward. In early FF games it was always about saving or trying to protect the crystals to keep the world in balance. This game specifically laid them out as something that needed to be destroyed as the world's dependence on them became unhealthy and even started to damage the very world they were supposed to be balancing. I haven't finished the story yet so I don't how it plays out for sure, but I feel like this might be one of the hidden meanings of this game that the devs thought about as there is a divide among fans of this series in regards to letting go of the past and embracing change and difference.

It's tough for me to say ORAORAORAORA or NAMUNAMUNAMU while hitting that counter move... but I love doing it

i love that what drives Kupka over the edge is the crystal showing him a vision of Clive cucking him it's very funny to me, for some reason

Ifrit doing an Inazuma Kick is not something I expected out of FF16 but I'm glad it happened.

I love that the enemy bombs for the bath house quest were called "bath bombs" and the boss bomb was called "old faithful" 😂😂

If you guys notice in the final phase of the titan fight. Titan comes out punching from the direction they are falling because he was in the very middle of titan lost from the last phase😁

I eventually realized Byron is probably the Hildebrand equivalent, but when he first showed up at the hideout his line delivery made me absolutely certain he was going to betray me. It was the most out of left field jarring experience in the game.

What a boss fight that was, that part alone cemented 16 as one of the best FF games so far and definitely goty for 23!

'Oh god its not over' encapsulates this fight LOL

Imagine they hadn’t spoiled Titan Lost in the trailers and previews, my would have dropped

My favorite part about the Titan Lost fight is you're going to finish murdering a mountain and then in the next video go back to killing bees and helping a dude carve a knife. Also....where's Torgal during that whole thing? Like, he's fighting with you when you enter the chamber...then Kupka turns in to Wyzen and he just sorta vanishes while Clive and Kupka have their big Dragonball throwdown.

The Titan fight is definitely the DMC moment of the game. Epicness and the music. I've been calling FFXVI "Final Witchers Creed May Cry".

Uncle Byron is my favourite NPC ever.

I really love how creepy Titans face looks close up.

DUDE! I’m so glad I watched this after my own playthrough because I just realized, the last phase of the Titan fight you were falling through HIS FUCKING DISCARDED TITAL LOST FORM!! WTF

I'm a couple of hours into my NG+ and I've already died 6 or 7 times I died once my first playthrough. When I died to the same enemy 3 times in a row I was like max like ok game I see you this is fun! Lol

This was the best boss fight in many years. What a banger.

3:01:40 now that right there that key change made that fight for me, even made me root for Kupka a bit!

2:52:50 "Under the Weight" my beloved ❤

3:00:10 Gives me chills every time i hear it.

looks like he's stopping to look at how "little" damage he did to that arm 2:49:40 😂

The Titan Lost section really felt like an FF14 raid boss. You can definitely see the CBU DNA in some of these fights.

That fight next so op you then knew that was the best cinematic in the game

When I got to the Titan fight, and he turned into Titan Lost. It reminded me a somewhat of the Kratos Vs Cronos fight, mainly because the size comparison of Ifrit. And Titan Lost.

That Titan fight gave me GoW 3 vibes...makes me hopeful thats thenkind of shit we'll see in the coming games

I will now never forget how badass Ifrit looks when he did that Rider Kick sequence during the Titan fight. That moment was so 🔥🔥🔥

Clive is such a fucking badass.

You know Max is having a good time when he's biting his lip.

The cristals breaking always sound like a scream

Never in my life did I think the next Metal Gear Rising would be in Sonic Frontiers and Final Fantasy, and they both released so close to each other

I was in my room screaming when I found titan this better be GOTY

I found something about the timing for the moves when it has the bar- the difference between red and yellow is damage but it’s also how long it takes you to recover from the move, red being more lethal in terms of use (I used ice age and noticed this) but it won’t only do more damage and more in terms of finishing combos but it also takes longer to recover from overall after you use it so if you miss or mess it up, you’ll feel like you messed up big time.

Clive stole clouds headache thing 😂😂😂

This game may have been a bit to easy but I'll be damned if it ain't Final Fantasy through and through. And it's a damn good Final Fantasy too. The best mainline game since X. Not saying 12 isn't good just liked this more than I enjoyed 12.

30:00 inb4 continuing: how exactly would we tell Byron about.....actually, Clive now knows Joshua somehow survived, so maybe we don't need to.

It never crossed my mind that you could shoot the rocks that are falling from the sky during the 'Asura's Wrath' segments of that Titan fight. I just attempted to dodge everything - turned out pretty alright in the end.

Man, this fight was great. Just gonna copy-paste a comment I made on a different video featuring this fight. Things I love about this fight's theme: * I like the fact that apparently Soken couldn't help himself and made this Titan's theme resemble the FF14 Titan's theme (I think he even confirmed on his Twitter that he was asked to make the theme consistent with to the other Eikon battle themes, but couldn't help himself because "it's Titan!"). * There's still a more "consistent" version of the song in the final phase. * I think PlatinumGames were among the developers for the Eikon fights and this fight (and the next Eikon fight) show that off the most to me (wouldn't be surprised if they had a hand in designing the battle portion of Titan Lost and the final fight against Titan himself), especially since there's two obvious call backs to their style of cool over-the-top combat in this battle (specifically, the conclusion of the entire battle features three "snapshots" of the final blow before giving the results, much like how Verses in the Bayonetta series end, and Ifrit basically does a Red Hot Kick -- itself a reference to the Rider Kick -- to finish off Titan Lost during the transition from that phase to the final one. I'd also call the entire last phase a callback to Bayonetta 2, where one of the boss fights has Bayonetta "falling" down a long tower with an angel boss chasing and attacking her during the descent).

3:17:46 how do you get that song for your base ? I need it 😩

I never gotten emotional in a FF fight then this Ifrit vs Titan. It's as of my inner child woke up and was beyond exciting how this battle was. Absolutely Yoshi-P and Devs knocked it out of the ball park and Sokan is just a God Tier Composer, holy shit!

The music in this game is so fucking good. Loving Ultima as well.

Was ultima behind all of the tragic things that happened to Clive so they could break his will and be a easy host to take over I'm at this part of the game so no one tell me but it seeming that way

Interesting to see how you play, totally different from me. I needed the auto lockon/shift of Fire/Ifrit my entire playthrough, and always had my magic charged by holding that charge during combos, to release as a finisher. Had tornado and the electric AOE as my main stagger generators early on.

Thank you again for another highly entertaining playthrough

Can’t wait for the soundtrack good lord!

Man this game is crazy, this battle had me so hyped and it just kept growing as it went. All the Eikon fights were like that to be honest.

The Titan Lost fight is my new favourite Sonic game.

Do you notice every time a crystal is broken there is a screaming sound as it dissolves .

I was curious whether he would make anything of the Prince Dion scene. Like many other streamers who have posted, he was decidedly “okay then.” Good.

Dude, that Evangelion dive kick! Gets me every time.

Everytime Clive says fuck you really feel it, super heartfelt lmao

Turned into Audra’s wrath at the end, so badass!

And the awesome Let's Play continues!
