The bosses are a bit... underwhelming sometimes, I'll concede.

Both in design, concept, and execution.

But there are so MANY of them and honestly... Dark Souls' combat is just so good that I didn't care as much.

Though... there aren't any bosses that made me go "WHAT THE FUCKING SHITCUNT ASSDICK IS THAT?!" like the Centipede Demon in the sequel... but meh.

One thing I'll say is that there is... uhh...

NO BED OF CHAOS.

NO. BED. OF. CHAOS.

Thank GOD. I fucking hated the Bed of Bullshit. It's basically the sole reason I won't boot up the original again because I know I HAVE to kill it. Uggh... I'll beat it eventually, but really... it's mostly just dumb luck.

Have one from me too.

Also, Ram, pretend Archer's last words to Tallis on the roof never really happened because that was kinda OOC.

Oh, we're talking about Dark Souls?

Ninja-flip the Bed of Chaos. All day. Every day.

And it's so easy when you're evil... This is the life for me, the Devil tips his hat to me...

@prom: but so many bosses commit so many number of sins

sin number 1: attack tracking is absurd

sin number 2: dark souls combat is not particularly well-designed for one-versus-multiples fights and they keep throwing fights with multiple bosses at once at you. it isn't fun in the slightest.

sin number 3: "big knight-like dude with big weapon" makes up the majority of the boss roster

sins 1 and 2 turn many of the bosses from what could have been engaging and exciting battles into infuriating battles of attrition and tests of your patience

but srsly

the centipede demon

wtf

that thing is just

like

WHY

I can't even tell where it begins or ends

it's just a clusterfuck to the eyes

and it scares the piss out of me

@Duff Yeah, I get you.

I FEEL YA BRO

I REALLY DO

I just... think the game has far too many improvements and they just... outshine the flaws.

Also, the Iron King is a total fucking pushover. What a ripoff.

He looked SO

DAMN

COOL

And like... he's one of the easiest bosses in the game... like... even solo

so ridiculous

I mean... yeah... he's a discount Balrog... but FUCK

The Balrog looks so badass that even a cheap knockoff is automatically badass

but... why is he so easy

like... why

Also, yeah, the four knights in the Lost Bastille wrecked my shit for a while until I figured I had to use co-op, in that regard... it's kind of bad, since I could solo pretty much every boss in the original

@Prom: let us not forget

the six belfry gargoyles

and the throne watcher and defender

and the royal rat authority

and the duke's dear freja

and potentially the looking-glass knight

and the twin dragonriders

Oh man

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK those Gargoyles

...yeah... okay

I'll admit, they really really got too happy with the more than one on one boss shit in the sequel

The only bosses I can really recall that were more than one on one in the original were...

obviously Ornstein and Smough, the Capra Demon (because those dogs are a bigger pain than him), Nito (same as Capra Demon), annddd... that's all I can think of.

lol

But they were easy

....if you had AoE attacks

heh...

Okay yeah, the bosses are kinda.... ehhh...

BUT THE GAME IS SO GOOD

Oh... duh... I forgot the Four Kings
