1:36 this Transformation cutscene was perfect in my opinion. The music, the design, the animation, the voice, the sense of danger. Everything just hit perfect
Probably the most fun I've had fighting a boss in this game. The beat slapping harder than an abusive parent, the unexpected transformation. Fucking amazing
It was 100% someone in the art department saying “we want this to look ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE and we’re willing to waste two weeks worth of production time to ensure it.”
I accidentally discovered that you can make him dive head on into the stone fist that is coming out when he's swimming in the coins. Just stand next to the fist, it deals tons of damage and is just hilarious 🤣 Parry the attacks prior to the dive while standing near the fisto
Absolutely stunning bossfight. Shame we didn't get much of a character introduction in the lead up to this fight like we did with the other bosses. I feel like this character could've been fleshed out more.
Honestly wouldn’t be surprised if he was used as a returning character in a dlc and/or sequel along with Zanzo. They had a lot of love and creativity put into them (along with literally every other character in this game) for being used only briefly.
@@Googlurg hes isnt dead imo, sure getting crushed by profit sound bad, but he is still in werewolf thingy so yeah, bet he gonna return and i eager to him return
@@Googlurg Also considering how nonchalantly everyone reacted and with how advanced Vandaley is, I have a feeling they can just bring Rekka and Mimosa back as robots/ clones.
@@leighbelk769additionally, roquefort mentions he was on his deathbed when kale "saved" him (presumably by enhancing him) so its presumable that vandelay could have some means of saving people Im not sure if thinking mimosa or rekka being able to survive is still wishful thinking tho.
rekka only fought chai because she wanted to crush someone korsika fought chai because she was oblivious and wanted to get back on her regular job mimosa fought chai so she can have a good show but this guy is the only one who's genuinely loyal to kale for what he did to him i find that kinda cute ngl
@@TheRealClaylex I bet Zanzo will be back in the future. He is the only one who'se body didn't explode to bits, or was crushed by a mountain of gold. He was just hit in the face. Even the explosion in his defeat was minimal, AND you can still see his body there.
@@ChamelionK the dj's (remixer of this song) name is wolfgang gartner. The song is a remix of Beethoven 5th I agree Mozart is more appropriate, butmozart's pieces are so dainty and elegant. Not fit for a boss fight
@@modreamtubersansgaming6907 it’s on Gamepass if it helps, sometimes the subscriptions go for 1 dollar if you’re lucky. But the average is around 10 bucks a month.
Who is willing to bet that Roquefort will come back in the next game, mainly because he can literally swim through coins as seen in this battle and therefore he can definitely survive that cash heap? That and there was no explosion afterwards.
Honestly I doubt none of the bosses are actually dead. Sure they exploded but everyone acts more like they just beat them up and they’re not actually dead. Sure Kale was a jerk but Peppermint doesn’t strike me as the kind of person to be glad her brother is dead. At the very least Roquefort and Zanzo are alive. (Though the latter is probably crippled)
@@leighbelk769 The only part that hints they've been murdering everyone is when Cinnamon says he's glad they didn't have to give Korsica a tragic demise.
Roquefort’s death didn’t make that much sense to me. He’s in a giant wolf mech suit. How does he die by suffocation from coins? Granted, it probably weighs a ton and it did fall on top of him but his mech suit is giant.
Also that he's specialized in tunneling through gold and his compact human mode would be as strong while being whatever times armored against crushing/suffocation. At best he's moody and just got lost in the joy of a really good third quarter.
Up until this point I was amazed by this game but then: battle against a giant cyborg werewolf with techno remix of Beethoven... That's when I knew that I was playing 2023's GOTY
I love hifi rush so much! It didn't seem fun at the beginning when I started but after halfway in the game, I was so hyped up! (Down bad for peppermint btw😍)
Roquefort. This is actually the name of a strong cheese in France. If I was the character, I will say something like "what are you gonna do cheese-man ? Making me smell your strong breath ?.
His transformation and sound effect look and sound like they were taken straight out of Transformers with all the hidden panels and pieces. Even his robot form looks like it was taken straight out of beast wars!.
Can someone explain to me why this guy is not the final boss? Like we couldn’t actually beat him, a pile of money saved our rockstar skins. Banger theme, design, and absolutely fabulous personality 😂
Played it on hard on my first run, his last phase would KO me after 4 hits. Crazy strong boss, also we couldn't even beat him, plot had to knock him out or something
His human form would need to be made from a dense concentration of some kind of liquid metal, maybe something like nanites. Then again the game is cartoony, and this transformation is cool. Sometimes you just have to throw logic out the window.
I like how it’s unclear if when Chai asked Roquefort why he’d want to be less smart is him being a smartass, a dumbass, or both. Either way, it’s completely in character with him.
Future tech baby! I don't know. Maybe somehow they managed to make components that can fit in a very unbelievably small space of mass. Game and just animation logic, we don't f'ing know
The Big Bad Wolf Attack minigame was not working for me I came to see if it was the same for anyone else. I even checked this video for the timing but I could see mine was broken, the notes were disappearing well before they reached the bar, soi the syn was completely off, I wish Geforce Experience was working to prove it
I think Roguefort was inspired by hulk and Obadiah Stane at the same time (you are making me angry thing from hulk and armour mechanism from Stane. I think it's really cool

"I put my stock in futures... but not yours, kid" is one of the hardest lines I've heard in a videogame in a while. It's so good.

I legitmately read that as I put my stock in furry

Agreed. It looks and sounds so satisfying
As well as the fact that the tie and monocle still appear on him lol
Oh, absolutely. I absolutely *adore* the howl sound effect most of all. The reverb at the end is just. *chef's kiss*
Don’t forget the fact that it’s all on beat with the music!
Transformation reminded me Transformers
The werewolf of wall street
Ooooohhhhh so that what the reference was
Nice
and in Dutch there's also the expression "geldwolf", which means moneywolf-- usually used to refer to miserly and/or greedy people.
I KNEW THAT'S WHAT IT WAS REFERENCING
@@jurtheorc8117makes sense (definitely using this for reference for something later)

Ngl at 4:01 is a damn animation flex, and I absolutely appreciate it
Transformers is willing to hire Roquefort after that
Be it this or Transformers, I'm always a huge sucker for transformations-while-moving.
It was 100% someone in the art department saying “we want this to look ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE and we’re willing to waste two weeks worth of production time to ensure it.”

YESSSS
I accidentally discovered that you can make him dive head on into the stone fist that is coming out when he's swimming in the coins.
Just stand next to the fist, it deals tons of damage and is just hilarious 🤣 Parry the attacks prior to the dive while standing near the fisto
Found that out too, I though that was what was supposed to happen, not an extra thing
@@Drawngalaxy well if you're not near the fist and just dodge/parry he's just diving in and jumping out to fight normally again
well i just did the same thing to him dashed to the stones and lured him there😊@@GraniteFaun
Love how when you walk in and see all the samurai robots you are like oh please don’t make me fight em.
They knew what they were doing baiting us
If you look at the style of Roquefort's name in his health bar, I'm pretty sure he's meant to be a reference to Jon Talbain from Darkstalkers.
Dang, here i thought it was a reference to Altered Beast.
He even has that triple dash attack that almost all wolf-like characters in games seem to have.
Absolutely stunning bossfight. Shame we didn't get much of a character introduction in the lead up to this fight like we did with the other bosses. I feel like this character could've been fleshed out more.

I lost it when I reached this bossfight. He’s a giant cyborg werewolf. And it’s both the stupidest and coolest thing in the game.
rekka only fought chai because she wanted to crush someone
korsika fought chai because she was oblivious and wanted to get back on her regular job
mimosa fought chai so she can have a good show

@FyathyriO YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO PUBLICLY CALL ME OUT MY DUDE
This Roquefort guy sure is a fan of Beethoven.
if you ask me it should have been Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

And the transformation....mwah
IS everything on rhythm in this game? i could see why its fun and popular. Im jamming to everything
It is indeed.
EVERYTHING is on the beat
Yes, some things have their own beat but yes it's all about the beat in this game, and it's fun!

The best boss fight I’ve ever foughted, literally gave me mass goose bumps during his transformation
During his sequence of dashing under the gold, stay close to the fist that sticks out of the gold so when he dives you, he dives into the fist

Yup. I can confirm

I gotta agree 🥵
You're right, say it again

Granted, it probably weighs a ton and it did fall on top of him but his mech suit is giant.
I'm positive if there's a sequel or DLC expansion he'll be back as the main antagonist.
@@Leet-iz2fz probably brings back zanzo as well
@@marcusaaronliaogo9158 was fully expecting zanzo to make an appearance again later, though atleast his robot that he never got to pilot did lol

“Really, why do you want to be less smart?”
Awesome transformation
Imagine my reaction when I, a bisexual furry, saw the big mechanical werewolf.

Roquefort: *Seims in a pile of gold coins.*
Scrooge McDuck: It appears we share the same the hobby.
This guy is definitely one of those suspiciously rich furries.
Roquefort. This is actually the name of a strong cheese in France. If I was the character, I will say something like "what are you gonna do cheese-man ? Making me smell your strong breath ?.
shit dude are they all named after food?? chai, peppermint etc.. what the hell is korsica
@@WasaboDuckBoy Corsican pear spice tea
Not just any cheese, but cheese made from sheep's milk. So if the whole "wolf in sheep's clothing" bit wasn't already enough for you...
This was the funnest/hardest boss fight I had in the game.
Thank god I could parry/use my allies well or I would've died more than once. xD
*Don't make me angry.... you wouldn't like me when im angry*
-BB
you know roquefort's a great character when both his human form and werewolf form are fine as hell
His transformation and sound effect look and sound like they were taken straight out of Transformers with all the hidden panels and pieces. Even his robot form looks like it was taken straight out of beast wars!.
Mr. Krabs cause of death: 9:09
This is happen if you are greedy
They didn't need to make him that hot, but I'm glad they did.
The suspiciously rich furry
I think my favorite part is all the metal plates sliding into place in time with the music during his transformation.
Dorian slapping Chetney around with a guitar was not the fight I knew I needed
Chetney only uses wood.
This game has some Viewtiful Joe vibes
I’m pretty sure this game was made by some ex- capcom employee who probably worked on Viewful Joe
Several, in fact.
"why are you running? Why are you running?"

This is the best video I've ever seen.
I love the irony of Roquefort being pwned by his own gold
So what's the pay for working for him? 👀
Probably not enough. And obviously asking for a raise is like asking him to maul you.
This boss suddenly gives me Genshin Impact Boss fights vibes, the Giant Ones, most likely the Golden Wolford and Azdaha for some reason
i wish genshin bosses were fun like this, instead of flying around aimlessly for 3 min and then telling you to use geo
I'm getting iron monger vibes from this guy. Especially with that one bit when he opens up. Am I tripping
Warwick is that you?
This boss is so hard it made me cry. OMFG
Least expensive fursuit in 2344
absolutely fantastic!
I like how it’s unclear if when Chai asked Roquefort why he’d want to be less smart is him being a smartass, a dumbass, or both. Either way, it’s completely in character with him.
Roquefort went to the Senator Armstrong school of being an unexpectedly OP villain
Ladies and Gentlemen, the least rich furry.
i gues you could say he was
*cheesed*
This boss fight in my opinion was the hardest, maybe it's just me but I had a hard but fun time on this boss
There must be a way to cheese this boss fight.
I'm gonna ignore the pun and just say parry everything.
"Roquefort" is a type of cheese. He IS the cheese. There's no way around it.
clearly a reference to the rockefeller family
The suspiciously wealthy furry
Still can't believe that one of his attacks is a Scrooge McDuck dive.
