What are your first thoughts when encountering a Final Boss?

[Fiz_The_Toaster]

Typically it's either 'Oh shit...' or 'OH SHIT!'

Then me frantically trying to figure out how to kill him, finding weak points, and trying not to get murdered.

 

[chanceisshane]

"Everything before this better have been worth it," "Oh SHIT!!! The game is almost over," or "Ok lets see how bad you really are" followed by the eventual tossing of the controller. Getting better at containing my anger on that last one.

 

[Stewie9007]

Uggh i'll go get the rocket launcher

 

[Continuity]

"God i hate boss fights.. lets get this over with"

 

[pulse2]

I mess about the first time around, bosses always have a pattern to thier attack, because it is natural for giant monsters or powerful individuals to repeat the same process over and over again so that you may time it correctly and attack approriatly.

 

[Someone Depressing]

When I first encountered the MOTHER3/Earthbound 2 Final Boss.

"Ok attack!"

*For some reason... Lucas couldn't attack*

"...Bullshit! Attack!"

*Lucas wanted to cry*

"Oh fuck you Lucas and your stereotypical JRPG personality!"

I sat there for hours mashing the attack-button getting my ass kicked until I realized I had to hold-out and stop fighting.

 

[supermariner]

Thank God i saved up all this heavy weapon ammo
now to use it all at once on your face

and then pray the boss isn't just the penultimate in a number of different stages like Final Fantasy 7 caught me with

 

[ciancon]

"Super awesome final boss music time!" or "Holy fuck, the ending better live up to this."

Seconded! Especially if the game is FF8, i love the boss music for that!

 

[Daveeo]

hmmm okey now how do i beat this bugger?

 

[Alphakirby]

Either 'FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-" "DIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIE!!!!!!" "WHAT THE FUCK DID I DO WITH MY ITEMS!?"
Or if it's turn based- "I CAN'T DIE,I FORGOT TO SAVE!!!" "NONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONNONONO DON'T KIL THAT ONE,HE'S THE STRONG ONE!!!" "FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

 

[ecoho]

please god say i saved earlier...........

 

[SovietSecrets]

Please let it be somewhat difficult.

 

[BioHazardMan]

It's all about staying calm.

I remember psyching myself up for Saddler in RE4, then was mad when I finished the battle without getting hit.

At least RE5 had more of a challenge...

 

[demoman_chaos]

"How do I kill this butthole?"

More follows, but first thought is always the same.

 

[Atmos Duality]

"I hope this isn't anticlimatic."

And then it usually becomes Anti-climatic.

[GreyKnight3445]

thought #1: rocket launcher time

thought #2: FUCKING QUICK TIME EVENTS!

 

[Anarchemitis]

Ace Combat Zero:
"15: The Talon of Ruin
Operation Valkyrie
December 25, 1995"
Me: Oh, okay. Another day, another sortie.
Ace Combat Zero:

Me: That can't be a boss. This game is supposed to be realistic. No...
Red Enemy Fighter Jet: "Espada 1 to Espada 2, it's time to stop the Demon Lord.
Me: ...fricken-
Espada 2: Roger, lead the-
Me: way.
Ace Combat Zero: MISSION START

To date, the HRESVELGR is still my favorite boss battle.

 

[FalloutJack]

It can depend on the boss, but there could be mixes of "Oh crap" or "Okay, let's see how I deal with this one.".

But for my money, the funniest one has to be...

"Hi Nyx!" *Casts Armageddon* "Bye Nyx!"
