    What I also love about Sigrun’s fight is the gradual buildup to it with each Valkyrie you defeat, specifically via Mimir’s stories regarding them. If you listen to them, like I did, then the cutscene after defeating Sigrun would make your victory feel even more satisfying.

      i beat her and i dont think she's THAT difficult, for example i find godrey horah loux a bit harder, the thing is she has waterfowl dance and that can be random (no set up to dodge) and her second phase is just cheap on half her attacks
      i still think she's one of the best bosses ever period (still behind radagon), but again, i think her difficulty is being a bit blown out of proportion. at least in my opinion. i had a blast fighting her

He gives u no window between combos if u stick close and dodge around. The delay attacks make Nameless King look like a kid. From Soft is the best in the business and they keep proving it time to time.

    Gonna have to go with the Valkyrie Queen, brilliant design, training you for all of her attacks by having you battle each valkyrie. Difficulty was only just bordering on frustration, but still gave you the feeling that you could beat her. Came so close so many times. A boss that really made you learn the skills. Definitely let out a cry when I beat her!

    Fatalis from Monster Hunter World: Iceborne expansion is my personal favourite jumping out of the chair moment. He was added as the final monster in an update, and he is no joke. Straight up rinses players in flames over and over and over again. Me and my brother had to plan the hunt, use the environment, make dedicated sets that balance offense & defense, and still we would keep on struggling, so when it went down, the quets completion music blared, we jumped out of our seats and shouted. It is so rewarding to see the thing go down.

    Isshin is the epitome of boss fights. Sekiro is the first game to truly give me that feeling of having started at a nothing nobody vagrant riff raff who over the course of the game slowly honed his skills and became a MASTER Shinobi. Even after progressing through the entire rest of the game, there were no tricks or gimmicks that were gonna get me through Isshin quickly and easily. After five days of countless hour sessions at a time, it was only once I stopped trying so hard and conveniently reached a sort of, “zen state” that I realized mid battle how close I was to beating him that attempt… and inevitably did! I came home from Christmas dinner in a food daze ready to just chill and have a million more goes at him just for shiggles. Little did I know, it was fated to only be about 2-3 goes that night. My first fromsoft experience was completed with the most memorable of battles and journeys to ever grace my tv screen and more importantly… my mind. Sekiro and it’s combat will be carved into the ether as one the all time greats!

She really is the best challenge in that game. You really have to use all your legions to beat her, like the game is constantly getting you to do.

    Two major boss fights I'd say that gave me this finishing feeling was fighting radahn in Elden ring...that fight was like an all out war. It felt so good seeing him fade away when he's one hit away from finishing the fight but also you're one hit away from dying. I can never forget this fight. Also the fight with vergil yea...almost broke my controller ._. And was upset that my friend told me how easy this fight was! This was not an easy fight what so ever....though if I were to go back through it again I'm sure it wouldn't be as bad as I thought now.

    I think there's two bosses that really stick with me overall. First one, I'd say Red in GSC and HGSS. For me, I hate grinding, so most of the gyms and the Pokemon League I ended up at with pokemon at a similar level to theirs (usually). But with Red, I was severely underleveled after making my way towards him almost as soon as I was able to. And while his team isn't "perfect counter to everything" kind of thing, it still poses a good challenge and was difficult for me and my lower leveled 'mons to break through.
    The second one, I wouldn't necessarily call "hard" (at least not on the normal difficulty), but beating Heimdall's ass in God of War Ragnarok felt incredibly satisfying. That dude was the most narcissistic, egotistical, self-centered sonovatog I've ever encountered, and seeing him react to actually get hurt before taking him out just felt so damn good. Sucker got what he deserved, and I think even that was too kind for him.

    Definitely a good example of a hard boss is the Pure Vessel from Hollow Knight, more specifically, the Pantheon of the Knight. If you don’t know what it is, it’s the boss rush that is filled with incredibly hard bosses in the game. The boss by itself is incredibly tricky to learn how to beat. Just beating it in practice mode felt really good. I heard that Absolute Radiance in the Pantheon of Hollownest was harder but I felt done with the game after I had my last victory.
