I know I'm alone in this, but I LOVED that boss battle. The entire point of the game is that you and your 4 allies have power due to fate/internal abilities where as the only reason Lucien had any power was through external means. Once you've fought through all his external defenses, he's just a man and is as weak as any normal person would be.Soviet Heavy said:
For me, while its not a final boss, it was Seymour in Final Fantasy X when you fight him on Mount Gagazeht. Just before his fight the game opens up a lot for you to do a large number of different side quest and leveling and because I'd done so much I ended up overlevelling the encounter by a scary amount and killed him in one shot.
The end 'boss' of Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
Not only was it wretchedly easy but it made little sense either, just sorta comes out of nowhere and I'm supposed to for some reason care. Hell, all the bosses in that game were terrible. I can't think of a single one which was even remotely interesting unless trying to save Malik counts.

Lol i got bored of that monologue so i just aimed and pulled the trigger(lucky me).Aris Khandr said:
I think wet should deserve a spot here. i really enjoyed playing this game then you get to the big boss that is just a set of QTE's and then game over (although it hints that there might be a sequel(that will never get made anyway).
King Allant's true form in Demon's Souls is almost ridiculously anti-climactic, but there are perfectly good lore-related reasons for it, and the rest of the game is pretty much one long, drawn-out climax, so fair's fair. Not really a disappointment; it's mostly just surprising that he can get up and fight at all.
Yet another fantastically sadistic joke of the sort that From Software loves to play on its fans.

Every Uncharted final Boss. All 3 have a different way of battling them, 1 is actually servicable, all 3 are stupid and unexciting.
Oh and Resistance 3. They used an alien from earlier in the game again and again with a cinematic angle. Doesn't compare at all to the epic fight from 2.
GTA 3: The latin woman at the end was way easy to kill.
The Allspark was a stupid final boss

As two people have mentioned before me....borderlands, all through the game i was having so much fun and thought 'wow the end boss is going to be hard to beat' and what happens...i pump a few rounds into him and what do i get? not a vault full of riches but a couple of guns and then BAM end of game. So much dissapointment, but i can't wait for number 2!!!
I've always found Gnasty Gnorc of the first Spyro the Dragon game to be a major disappoint. Just chasing him around for a little bit, torch him twice and he's down. Sure, I guess it's emphasising the platforming part of the game, but I'd still like him to fight back instead of running all the time.

And in Saints Row 3 where they give you the choice to either A)
Kill Killbane
Save Shaundi, Viola, and Mayor Reynolds.
And Alduin's battle, that was just...depressing.
Yu Yevon in FF10 :/ really, just reflect + fight? *sighs* it was really pathetic, more so as i've heard OTHER means of offing him easily, like turning it undead, and letting the auto heal do the job for you
I will always rant about borderlands final boss fight, those ten seconds will be burned into my retinas forever, a simple jump shoot 13 times with a shotgun and boom finale. but I have spent far too long away from these forums to return again by complaning about an accepted fact.
Demons Souls, i look back upon that game thinking how easy the boss fight is for my character. He barely scaved me and i took down his health in seconds two with a few base strong attacks. BUT i never really could get mad at it, i always felt like that it was a key element in the story like how the stairs for each level were.
Actually just had a flash back to one game i kept taking the abuse from time and time again. Soul Calibur, both 3 and 4. The story mode is non existant and all you do is read a text srawl after facing off against whoever happens to have the soul edge at the time. BOOOOORING as fuck and i really hate it the more look back on it.

Dragon Age: Origins. Call down a big dragon, get ready for epic battle... and it turns out it can be stunlocked to death. Basically glyph explosion > fucking everything.
Shub-Niggurath in Quake. It started off so promisingly. I had battled my way through legions of flesh tearing, blood guzzling eldrich abominations and I was now facing down the absolute ruler of the demons and monsters in a plane unknown. I know I had been alone the entire game but this time it was different; I truly was a stranger in a strange land.
I charged through its defences, swathing through demented beings and came ever nearer to this tentacled fiend, clutching my ever-smoking gun. The ol' reliable. It grew all the more desperate, and my palms became ever more drenched in sweat. Every Shambler and Vore it threw at me I uncaringly put down. I assessed the situation, what was my game plan here? Where do I start? I noticed a teleport at the end of this walk-way. I realised what was needed of me, and as I stepped through that hazy portal I thought of all the blood, sweat and tears that had brought me to this very moment. All those who had died would soon be vindicated.
And for what? A mere Telefrag? I killed the leader of all things unholy with what would be considered hilarious dumb-luck in a death match game.
Total injustice to one of video gaming's coolest looking bosses and the namesake of my favourite Great Old One.

That right there pissed me off so much!
I mean really, not having boss fights is one thing but building up suspense and hinting towards them is just fucking cruel.
I use to wonder why he hasn't been doing all that well anymore, given that I'm a fan of the old saga. And then, the answer came to me: Without the Profound Darkness, he hasn't GOT IT anymore.Scarim Coral said:
