    Dues Ex Human Revolution - The game that encouraged stealth and non-lethal takedowns for the most experience, where hacking and movement is optimal for moving around an enemy infested base. You walk into the room, and there is Lawrence Barrett, a fully armoured walking tank with a mini-gun built into his hand. And your holding a stun gun that does NOTHING!!!

      Alpha protocoll had one of them as well.
      The whole game they told you that you could just sneak around and take down any opponent - and then they threw you into a arena battle with that one pistol you got with you.

      I remember that fight. There were poison gas canisters scattered around the room that you could throw at him if you werent built for combat. The problem was that it took several, and you had to aim and throw from first person while trying not to get hit.

    Demyx from Kingdom Hearts 2. Its not Demyx himself, but the unique mechanic he has. At the start of the fight, you have to defeat a number of water clones Demyx creates in a limited amount of time. Failure results in an instant game over. And once you get past that, he spends the whole fight dashing around the arena and spamming knock back attacks, before summoning the clones again. He's not to bad if you use the Action Commands to defeat the clones, but as a kid this guy was frustrating as hell.

    The main attack that Odur has in Thymesia is actually tanking the frame rate when he does almost anything significant - many of his moves cause massive dips. After switching from PS5 to PC so I could dominate the frame rate portion of the battle, I stomped him EZPZ.

    The Ludwig fight in bloodborne is amazing and very well designed. At first he is chaotic and most of the attacks just feel like a frenzy as if he has lost his mind, but then when he realizes he has the moonlight sword he comes to his senses and his attacks become more intentional and thought through. I find that phase actually easier but I love how the feel of the entire fight changes once he comes to his senses and he isn't so chaotic anymore.

    No one is ready for the Gleeok. Why would we?! Their last appearance was in Phantom Hourglass, and yes I know there actual last appearance before Tears of the Kingdom was Cadence of Hyrule, but Phantom Hourglass was the Gleeok’s last appearance in a canonical entry in the Zelda series, so they got a major buff in both power and appearance in Tears of the Kingdom. So of course we’re not going to be ready for them, it’s not like we’re going to go all Leeroy Jenkins and fight them when we’re not ready yet! And even when we’re ready, we’re not going to have an easy fight against them!

    The Scorpion Sentinel in FF7 Remake. A remix of the original's first boss, it sets the tone for the game's boss battles going forward: long, spongy, and brutally hard. New players literally CAN'T be ready for it. because they have severely limited resources and no opportunities to grind. More importantly, they haven't yet clued in to the games idiosyncratic conceit that minor enemies are best dealt with via rapid offense, while boss fights are about defending and holding out for your big attacks. Toughest fight in the game, by far.

    The Bathomys tank in Valkyria Chronicles. It’s indestructible, you have poor equipment, it crushes your bases rendering them useless, it’s covered in machine guns that will down your soldiers in no time flat, and the main gun can destroy your tank in a single shot, which is an instant game over. Oh, you thought it stopped there? Once you figure out how to get it vulnerable and almost do it… reinforcements show up. One is completely invincible, can cover half the map in a single move, and down any foot soldier in a single shot. And she has *ridiculous* range. Like 10 times your soldiers range.

      I remember that fight. For me it was General Jaeger and his Lupus tank towards the end game. You fight tanks throughout the game, but his is completely armored, including the weak spot. So you've gotta chuck rockets at, which is pretty easy due to how slow it is. Then the armor breaks and it starts zooming across the map at full speed obliterating everything in its path.

    Another fun fact that makes Chameleos stress in MH2: All the original elder dragons gimmicks can be disabled if they are poisoned. This technically includes Chameleos if you code dive.... except he can't be poisoned. This means he's the only one who you legitimately need to actually fight through the gimmick of.
    Also in the original game he wasn't restricted on the item rarity he could steal, so he could grab absurdly expensive items like book of combos or power charms.

    If you want to properly confront a Gleeok, having a Lynel Bow and a bunch of Keese Eyeballs would be a start. In fact, a Five-Shot Burst Savage Lynel Bow can potentially turn any Gleeok into a mere pushover, though you will also need a powerful weapon by your side; the Flame, Frost, and Thunder Gleeoks all have 8000 HP.

      @@stevenbrown4001 Stunning the Gleeok is one thing, but because it has so much HP, you risk breaking a lot of your weapons if you don't have some heavy-hitting weapons with you. Fortunately, attacking a Gleeok's eye doubles the amount of damage dealt to it, which does mitigate that problem a bit.
