moving the Awesome Music part to the dedicated section


* AwesomeMusic: The soundtrack, featuring contributions from Carpenter Brut, Danger, The Toxic Avenger, Lorn, Scattle, Waveshaper, and [=Kn1ght=]; was praised even by people who disliked the game.
** The Line [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7ueZfmzkI0 Theme]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yrm_kb1d-Xc Wisdom of Rage]] is a prime example, and is usually one the most remembered because of the ThatOneBoss status of The Line.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeAAi7jWOl8 My Only chance]], the credits theme, is also one of the most memorable songs of the game.

* DisappointingLastLevel: [[spoiler: The Star]] is this to some. The boss in himself wouldn't be too much of a problem but because of the UnexpectedGameplayChange, the battle can get very frustrating, since the armored suit has awkward dodge and parry timing compared to what you're used to. The melee attacks of the boss are also wierd on their parry timing, as you need to parry earlier than you would expect at first, causing to take easily avoided damage.

* ThatOneBoss: The Burst and The Edge are cited among the biggest challenges in the game. If for the right or wrong reasons, depends on who's talking.

to:

* ThatOneAttack : The Burst's LastDitchMove is often regarded as this, being really long and asking very precise constant dash thourgh the shockwawes she continuously send and asking you to occasionally hide behind walls to dodge her OneHitKill attack.
**The Line and The Song respective final attacks also counts, especially when played in the Furier Setting.
* ThatOneBoss: The Burst Burst, The Line and The Edge are cited among the biggest challenges in the game. If for the right or wrong reasons, depends on who's talking.
** BernardBernard is THE biggest challenge of the game. What sends him into this territory is the fact that he mimicks every boss of the game one after another, which means the previous ThatOneBoss are back. Unsurprisingly, the phase where he mimicks The Line and The Edge are this trope.

** From the DLC, Bernard is also this, because of his FinalExamBoss and MarathonBoss status that can only be fought on Furier, making it the most challenging boss of the entire game, and really highlights the usefulness of the AntiFrustrationFeatures.



** Alternatively, The Scale can be this depending of your player type. Some people actually find him much easier to fight than The Hand, using very repetitive attacks with openings that are easy to learn. He also come right after The Line, who is usually ThatOneBoss, making him quite the cakewalk comparatively.

** On the opposite side of the spectrum there's [[CombatPragmatist The Burst]] and [[MirrorBoss The Edge]] whom are frequently considered to be ThatOneBoss for several players, their status however actually makes quite a bit of sense InUniverse. The Burst has already viewed all of The Stranger's battles against the previous jailers, preforms a total scan of him and deliberately set up her entire arena, all to give herself the upper hand. She's littered said arena with AttackDrones and mines all the while cloaked under camouflage and taking shots at you from afar with a sniper rifle. In addition, she displays the ability to have some control over her arena itself, raising the individual [[HighTechHexagons hexagons]] making up the area in order to close you off and limit your room to dodge. Taking all of the above into account with the added fact that she's already a fairly good fighter, it only makes sense that she would be such a challenge.

* BreatherBoss: The Beat, the last jailer between you and freedom, who comes after the MirrorBoss of the Edge and the challenging arena of the Burst, is explicitly the weakest of the jailers, and while she is capable of beating you it's unlikely she'll be able to do much at that point. During her last phase, she becomes a ZeroEffortBoss, visibly exhausted and barely attacking at all.

** [[MasterSwordsman The Edge]] on the other hand manages to do the same without needing to stack the odds in his favor through sheer combat prowess. Him being able to give [[OneManArmy The Stranger]] a run for his money in a fair duel is justified as The Voice states that he's spent all his time there training and mastering his art for the inevitable day where he would finally get to do battle with The Stranger. The notion that he's spent all this time training is backed up by just how hard and swift his hits are, being able to take The Stranger down in only a few blows, however due to his GlassCannon status the same can be said for him, thus really giving the impression that the two of them are nearly equal in skill.

* FridgeBrilliance: Despite [[BreatherBoss The Hand]] being the one responsible for defeating [[OneManArmy The Stranger]] and his subsequent imprisonment, he comes across as fairly tame when compared to most of his fellow jailers. It may at first come across as a simple instance of GameplayAndStorySegregation until you remember that he led an army of hundreds when he first battled the Stranger, this time it's just him.

An Anticlimax boss is not easy intentionally, but for faulty design. The Beat was designed and stated in the story to be the weakest of the Jailers, as her fight is meant to tug at the player's guilt rather than challenge them.
