Let’s talk about first bosses. They are usually a más powerful (Most of the time) enemy then the ones tu have met before, and are the first ones to test your abilities and are a stepping stone for later bosses and challenges in the game. Usually, first bosses are pretty easy, as they help tu learn what to do and how to get used to the game ahead…. BUT, there are then those first bosses that come along and take none of your crap. These guys basically give tu a challenge right when tu start the game, without any warning o anything. So, before I begin, let’s go over some rules. First, only from games that I have played, and only one per franchise. So, seeing as I have never played Dark Souls o Demon's Souls, I will not be posting either first boss from those games. So, with all that dicho and done, let’s start the list
#10: Carlito from Dead Rising
Talk about being a douchebag straight from the start. When tu first fight him, tu are totally unprepared and are getting shot right when tu get there. And if tu are like me when I played this game for the first time, I had no idea where to go, so I was getting shot until I eventually died and had to start over at a save point. The problem with this fight is that Carlito is up on a higher platform, and you’re just stuck on the ground below. And not to mention, he has a machine gun, and tu have a puny little pistol. Also, tu only have four blocks of health and can only hold four items at this point of the game, so trying to keep from dying is easier dicho than done. It also doesn’t help that if tu get to close, Carlito will throw grenades at tu and those hurt tu a lot. Oh, and of course, your crosshair for the pistol has to mover at a snail's pace when tu try to aim, so getting shot isn’t too hard. Oh, and get this. This is the easiest of the three fights. Yeah, this is the easiest. After this, you're getting shot from a distance with a sniper rifle, and after that, you're getting rundown por a goddamn truck. So why is this boss fight lower? Because if tu manage to get the Zombie Genocider achievement, tu can use the Mega Buster to beat him in seconds, making it a pathetically easy boss fight.
#9: Skelter Helter from No más heroes 2
I would comentario on how awesome this guy looks, and that sword makes him look like a badass looking nube Strife (Cloud is badass too, don’t worry), but tu don’t want to hear about this guy who want’s to kill Travis for killing his brother. tu want to hear about how hard he is. Now, on Sweet and Normal <ode, he’s pretty alright. But if tu play the game on amargo, amargos Mode, just remember that tu have no idea what you’ve brought upon yourself. He will begin spamming the hell out of his strikes, and don’t even think about trying to distance yourself from him, because he will then begin shooting at tu with his gun, and it will badly hurt you. The only way to beat him is to just keep striking at him with your sword and hope he goes down before tu do. However, he’s lower too because, like I said, he is only this difficult if tu play the game on amargo, amargos mode.
#8: Olga Gurlukovich from Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty
This is actually a boss fight I kind of enjoyed. However, it is still a pretty challenging boss fight for a first boss. tu start por fighting her in a gunfight. However, while tu use a simple tranquilizer gun, she uses a real pistol. She will do everything she can to stay behind cover, and she moves real quick, so it’s pretty hard to hit her. However, after you’ve hit her a few times, things begin to get tricky. She will then shoot a tarp out from some boxes to keep herself hidden from you, while she keeps shooting at you. And if that wasn’t bad enough, after tu get past that one, she will then shoot a light at your direction, which makes it way to hard to see her from the blinding light while she takes potshots at you. And it really doesn’t help that she throws grenades at tu if tu stand in one spot for too long. As difficult as she is, she’s lower because I have never actually died to her. Still a hard, but fun boss fight though
#7: Gohma from Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker
Remember Gohma from Ocarina of Time. Remember how freaking easy she is. Well, Wind Waker brought her back, only now as a giant lava bug with armor… So yeah, she kinda upgraded from the last time we saw her. Gohma is a lot harder, let me tell you. tu still have to hit her eye (Because tu know, that’s what 99% of Zelda bosses weak spots are). However, she isn’t just going to let tu hit is, as she constantly covers it with her armored shell. So, tu need to use your grappling hook to oscilación across the ceiling and hit Gohma with it three times. After tu hit her three times, tu then have to wail at her eyeball until she dies. What makes this hard is the fact that tu only have three hearts, and Gohma is always trying to attack you, por swinging at you, o breathing very dangerous fuego on you. It’s really hard, and it’s probably best to keep that fairy from the room early at hand when meeting her. Though, just like Olga, I never died to Gohma. Hell, I never even used the fairy. Guess I’m just that good….. o maybe I just got really lucky.
#6: Guard escorpión from Final fantasía VII
Well, time to make an idiot of myself to the entire RPG world. Final fantasía VII was the first RPG I ever played, and a pretty good one to start with, if tu ask me. But what was a really awful decision was the damn Guard Scorpion. This guy will come in at complete random, right when tu are trying to get the basics down for this game. He will then throw everything he has at you, like stabbing tu with his tail, firing lasers, o even freaking missiles at you. And since tu did just start the game at this point, it isn’t that hard to believe that tu are at a very low level at the moment, which means tu do little damage and have little attack power. And since I was new to RPGs, I had no idea I could just heal myself with Phoenix Downs, so I died quite a lot. Thankfully, I learned overtime and after that…. the boss was still hard, but at least I won after that. I still don’t get why they thought this would be a good first boss. I mean, the other first bosses were at fun in a way. This guy is not at all fun. Shame on you.
#5: Del Lago from Resident Evil 4
When tu start hearing about this thing from a few notes in the game, you’re probably thinking, “Eh, nothing a rocket launcher can’t fix”. But here’s the thing. tu can’t use the rocket launcher. You’re not allowed to. You're stuck to using the damn harpoons. Every time tu throw them, tu have such a few chance of hitting him, and sometimes, tu just don’t. The damn thing moves so fast, that it is nearly impossible to hit him unless he’s going straight. Also, he is always trying to ram into you, o knock tu into giant land mounds to knock tu into the water. When he does, you’d better press the A button as fast as hell, because if tu don’t, he will eat tu and it will result in an instant death. And hell, half the time, tu can still do the exact right thing, and tu still get eaten, all because you’re health was just a bit too low. Well, if I could just get back in the boat, I could fix that damn problem. Nothing, not even the Chicago Typewriter o even the goddamn Infinite Rocket Launcher can help in this fight. Is Del Lago the worst boss fight? No (That would be you, Jack Krauser. tu suck), but he was not the best choice the for the game's first boss.
#4: Brock from Pokemon Yellow
If you're like me, tu watched the Pokemon TV mostrar a lot as a kid, and tu remember Brock as a gigantic pervert. So, when I met him in Pokemon Yellow, I thought it would be a fun boss fight… All it ended with was with tears and a feeling of defeat. When I played this game, me, including all my friends who had this game at the time, were only able to catch Electric o Bug Pokemon, so I am pretty sure that everyone who had this could only catch those kinds of Pokemon (Unless you’re either a pro o a cheater), so when we got to Brock, not only was all Electric Pokemon moves ineffective, but some of them didn’t even get a little harmed. Nothing worked at all. So, I had to train all of my Pokemon and go back to the Pewter Gym to fight Brock again over four times before I was finally able to win. You’d think that the first boss to a Pokemon game wouldn’t be that hard, but let me tell you, Brock gives the Guard escorpión a run for it’s money.
#3: Robotnik from Sonic 2 (Game Gear Version)
Oh, and tu thought Pokemon had a pathetic first boss. Well the original Sonic games are the king of easy first bosses. Not on Game Gear, though. Game Gear takes everything tu have ever known from a first boss in a Sonic game and flips it all around. What happens is that tu have no rings when the boss fight starts, and tu are stuck on a sliding platform with a robotic ciempiés at the bottom. What tu have to do is avoid the balls that come from the parte superior, arriba and make them fall into the centipede. However, the balls bounce way too high, and tu have to make a good choice weather to jump over the ball o pato under it. If tu don’t do it, you’ll end up dying, because like I said, tu have no rings. And trust me, there is no way to tell when it will end. tu just gotta keep dodging and hope it will end before tu die. And that is why the Game Gear Sonic games suck
#2: Murai from Ninja Gaiden Black
Like I dicho before, I have never played Dark Souls…. Mainly because after playing Ninja Gaiden Black, I don’t want to torture myself with another impossible game. When tu first meet this guy, there is no doubt tu will say “Oh, crap”. And that is the right reaction, because this guy is one of the hardest bosses I have fought in a long time. His nunchucks are swung so damn fast, that once he gets tu stuck in it, it is not easy to get out of it. Not to mention, since the camera is locked onto him for the entirety of the fight, trying to control the camera in your favor is impossible. And those goddamn brown jumping ninjas will be the death of me one of these days. The only way to beat this guy is to keep your distance and wait for the right moment to strike, since he has no ranged attacks. And thank god for that, because this fight was bad enough with him throwing melee attacks at me. Though, what boss could possible be worse?
#1: Olaric from Return to castillo Wolfenstein
I hate this boss… I hate this damn boss so much. Unlike all of the other bosses, tu actually had to strategies as best as tu can, no matter what. Each strategy making tu feel good after tu have finally defeated a challenging boss. But, this boss fight has no strategy. I actually had to cheat just to beat this boss, and in the end, I didn’t feel satisfied. I just felt empty. When tu first get there, tu find this find monster walking right toward you. At first, it seems okay, as tu can just shoot at it, but before tu know it, Olaric is sending spirits at tu which, if they hit you… and they will, tu will lose half of your health. And Olric ALWAYS sends spirits at you, so tu will die after two hits. It is almost as if they directly programmed this cheap boss attack just so tu could never ever beat the game. So, what do tu have to do to beat this boss? tu have to go back to a wall, stay hidden due to a glitch, and shoot at Olaric… I am not kidding. This boss is so hard, that instead of making it easier, they made sure that tu had to cheat in order to beat the boss. There is no way to kill this boss without cheating. I’ve tried finding it, but there is no way. All tu can do is keep shooting from behind this wall, and just wait to win. And no, I didn’t feel satisfied. I felt empty. That boss fight was terrible. It was just awful. How could anyone program it this way. This is a boss that is so hard, that the only way to beat it is to cheat, and that is why this is the hardest first boss I have ever seen.
So, there tu have it. Did tu enjoy the list? Tell me what tu thought of it. With that said, I will see tu all siguiente time.
