    One of the best dialogue I have ever read in my gaming experience.
    "You... HERE?
    The malaise really did take care of your body.
    Yes, indeed.
    BUT KEPT YOUR ARROGANCE!
    Even in spite of all my warnings...
    There's not hope left for anyone of us...
    DIE!!"

      The Concierge was hit full-force by the Malaise, probably has no conscience at all at this point.
      The Time Keeper knows. She's similar to Providence from Risk of Rain, but less actively hostile. She knows well enough that she failed, but she tried her best. I'm eagerly awaiting for more character development for her, since a lot seems to point towards her having a greater backstory.
      The Hand of The King is delusional. Probably got a bit of the brain rot too, if he had any brains to begin with.
      The Collector is too far gone to know anything at all. Too many screws loose.
      The Giant knows much more. Too much, perhaps.

      maybe due to how he works on a fundamental level
      all other bosses in the game can be attacked anytime and it boils down to evade and chip away their HP
      but The Giant works like s LoZ boss, it has a series of things that must be done in order to set him on a state where you can deal damage, this makes it so that not only you take longer to beat him but requires a lot more survival than others

I lived at 0.7% health (34/4827, I took a screenshot). I definitely should have died then.

    Giant is the only Dead Cells character that actually is good. The Beheaded might be the protagonist, but he's been a terrible King. Queen doesn't understand that it's impossible to save the Island from the Malaise. The Collector tried a lot to find a cure to the Malaise, but his experiments went too far and the Panacea drove him crazy. HotK doesn't know you're the King, but fights you even with King's outfit. For Mama Tick and Conjunctivius, they're just monsters. Concierge fights you because he's protecting the Black Bridge. Time Keeper sometimes makes mistakes and instead of explaining you why she resets everything she just teleports away. We don't know much about Scarecrow homever. Giant instead is the only one who was always good. He tried to help the King and protect the Kingdom, and now fights you because instead of listening him and saving the Island you, the King, just sent him to prison and tried to kill him.

      You're wrong about 1 thing. Queen does understand the impossibility of saving the island. But her purpose was never to save it. She herself was a result of an attempted cure to the Malaise, and she knows very well that the island is doomed now that the Apostates researching the cells were killed.
      Instead, she makes sure any attempts to escape the island are stopped, so the Malaise stays contained in the island.
      In a way, she is doing everything but saving the island. She is saving the rest of the world from the Malaise(which, she failed at, unless the Malaise arrived from outside).
