I'm Minos Prime's #1 fan
The end screen is a little messed up but i wanted to play the whole motif so it was worth it 
Игры
Minos Prime screaming "die" is a subtle nod to the fact that he is about to kill you
It’s just a reference to how he WILL beat you to death 125 times over on your first attempt
fr????? i never knew that!!
"This is best observed in Violent Difficulty."
Utkrash is bad
Took me 168 tries or something to beat this man, 3 FUCKING HOURS, I WAS UP TILL 1 AM
I played the demo and kept trying to beat the game without getting hurt, I then realized that this wasn't impossible but it was really hard to do
By any chance have you played Doom Eternal before playing ULTRAKILL? Because that might be the problem. If you are used to playing a normal video game like Doom, then playing ULTRAKILL in general is difficult. However, ULTRAKILL is not meant to be played like a normal fps game. You play as a vampiric Nikon that moves at Mach 4. In order to survive, you must be firing on all cylinders. Guns blazing. Getting up close and personal with your enemies. Also, play around in the sandbox. It helps to practice combos.
Anyway, this game plays like how crack smells, but it goes harder than diamonds. I would strongly reccomend getting the full version if you can. It will be worth it, especially once development finishes.
Edit: I'm sorry if my analogy at the beginning wasn't the best. The point I was trying to make is that trying to play it safe is unsustainable in a game like ultrakill.
Okay... Thanks??
@@connerredacted9432 Doesn't the demo not have sandbox mode? And if the demo was hard to no hit, just imagine the pain Shneepz went through no hitting P-2 lol
@@Goldend_ Firat of all, my reply was intended for @chancierbeet8915. I made the assumption that he stopped playing ultrakill because he was trying to avoid all damage (i.e. play it safe). But from what I understand (and personal experience), that's not the way ultrakill is meant to be played.
@@connerredacted9432 I see. Indeed a similar good assumption!
the scariest shit is that minos can’t teleport, he’s just that fucking fast.
damn
finally someone understands how good of a character minos is, i literally end up tearing up a little thinking of his story while *that one section* of order plays
Minos is the only one i truly regret killing.
Technically... Even Sisyphus.
So angry at what the heaven is doing, he took matters into his own hands, waging war against the impossible. He knew, that Heaven are bunch of fanatics, unable to be reasoned with...
cant wait for Gabriel Prime.... the final showdown, the power that killed those two beasts...
Same here, i cried for 8 minutes straight becuase of just listening to that part on loop
@@RaskaTheFurry Sorry, angels can’t be prime souls. So you can’t have your angry bottom beat you into silicon as a being of pure willpower.
@@RaskaTheFurry Sisyphus fully deserved what he had coming to him. He knew this. It's why he convinced the souls in the Greed layer to rebel against the armies of Heaven despite it being unwinnable and a death sentence, the dude just wanted to defy Heaven in any way he could.

GODDAMMIT! DAMN YOU HAKITA
Me after finally defeating Minos: "Finally.......I've done it,"
Meanwhile scoreboard: *87 Attempts*
Meanwhile I'm here, beating him with around ~200 deaths while having the basic knowledge of the game
Only 87? It took me 310 attempts to beat it xd
@@BennickBlue I practised a lot in Sandbox so it wasn't my first run, just the first successful run
@@Wizard_Pepsi oh ok xd
Was that the Dropkick of ‘87?!?!?

Meet the Minos
@@thesilverknook Meet the most fun fight of the game
@@lanasumato4018 Meet one of the toughest; I still haven’t beaten him.
Edit: Recently P-Ranked Minos. Yay
@@thesilverknookPREPARE THYSELF
For me, learning Sisyphus Prime was so rewarding to master
I remember learning you can basically parry everything and that's when it turned into a beautiful dance of countering, dodging, and feeling your heart pumping as WAR plays in your ears
Best fight ever
ikr, the fact that you can borderline bear hug him the whole fight makes you feel like you're not this small little machine in comparison that wins solely off of wits and speed, but someone who's on par with this huge brute and you two are just going at it
never had an fps game make me feel like this and i loved it.
this gives me the masculine urge to push a boulder up a hill for eternity
Yeah I'm so glad Hakita patched in the ability to parry his most attacks and almost all of them after half health.
Pre patch you couldnt parry phase 2 at all
damn i got 97 on Gabe himself
tbh minos was the first boss that actually made me sweat in ultrakill lmao
on hardest difficulty?
@@nine_moons3073 yea
So how's V2, Gabriel and P-2?
@@HenryTheCringeGuy v2 and Gabriel were Ight but p-2 made me want to shoot myself with a grenade launcher
so true, I missed the P-rank requirement for P-2 on Violent by 21 seconds and I actually just felt so down I didn't play the game for about a week@@bluedragonstudios7085
Even after Sisyphus being out, Minos still have a special place in my heart. His speech and attacks simply lives rent free in my mind to this day and I haven’t played Ultrakill in a while. Minos truly feels a one of kind boss, difficult like many others, but unique in his own and only way
*_JUDGEMENT!_*
PREPARE THYSELF!
THY END IS NOW!
Crush!
Weak...
The Minos Prime - One the most perfect bosses in all FPS games history.
When you just start fighting with him, you thinking "THATS IMPOSSIBILE". But after a 10 attemtps, you finnaly understand he actually warning what would be him next attack by saying something
A after a more attempts, you finnaly understand how to beat him, and now its just time for practice
I spent 131 attempts and 1.5 hour to beat him first time, i was fricking happy
After a p ranking act 2, i come back to him, and on 5 attempt i P ranked him, i just feel how i become stronger, and how game now show me how i am strong.
This boss is perfect. His music. His attacks. Even his history
And we all know, the most main problem in Ultrakill world, its not dead humanity or Gabriel. Its V1. Its YOU
Thank you my child

"P-ranking all the levels was not a challenge. it was a warning. and if i were to give advice, it would be to listen"
-Max0r
I would be lying if i say that P bosses are just difficult. They are BEAUTIFUL. The lore, the music, the struggles and progress you make, truly a tastefully made and forged game Ultrakill is; the song tells you tragic(King Minos) and also badass(Sisyphus) stories, the gameplay tells you that you can be better than this. This game is a perfection of it's own.
omg yes, i feel so emotional just watching it
Minos Prime: 'my thanks, for my freedom, but I'm honour bound to destroy you'
Sisyphus Prime: 'ah you think you're tough, lets see. Put 'em up'
And the game ain’t even finished yet
@@wrydfell3932sisyphus prime: You beaten minos? Square up, let's see if you are capable of deleting heaven
There isn't a single boss theme I've heard that can somehow cram the entire tragedy of the characters backstory into it. The Requiem leitmotif in Order hit like a truck the first time I actually got a chance to listen to the OST (without pain and suffering in the background)
listen to the hollow knight ost, its almost as good as this or maybe even better! (especially broken vessel and the hollow knight's theme)
I don’t find the requiem motif to be all that saddening, it feels more energetic, positive. Like the song that plays whenever the tragic hero of a story is finally victorious. Of course we know this to be false.
Order - Ultrakill's Bury the Light
@@ElectroFeel Fela - Pure
@@Doomdestin i find it kinda depressing but tbh i feel the same for almost all music in g minor
You should do a video on P-2 because honestly I thought I was unbeatable by then and I got destroyed pretty quickly.
P-2 is my next project, im writing rn and its longer than this video and i havent even talked about sisyphus yet lol
I hope you can give this amazing deep dive for Sisyphus next.
Sisyphus absolutely builds off Minos. And the themes of absurdism in his story resonate within the entirety of Ultrakill's story and themes.
I am EAGER to see how you tackle The Indomitable Spirit, Sisyphus
Sisyphus doesn't get nearly as much love as Minos does
It makes me sad. Because he's friggin epic.
Personally i like how (unlike most videogame bosses) I never felt truly angry or frustrated against minos, every attempt I was getting better, and thats why I love ULTRAKILL, there’s practically no skill cap
one of the few bosses that can predict the future,
DIE and you die
bro minos is such a good boss, there isn’t any tricks or bullshit like another health bar or the boss heals or smth, the boss just has insane strength and once you kill it it’s over
“Hesitation is defeat.” Fps edition.
I mainly love just how FUN it feels to fight him. At first, it seems crazy and ridiculous. Then, you start relying on parries and it becomes the most fitting use of the metaphor "dance" I have ever experienced. After beating Sisyphus, you come back and pretty much P-rank him in at maximum 10 tries, which left me feeling utterly astonished. Truly an amazing boss.
Its reflected on the theme too, being more clear as it progress
Out of all of the of the small youtubers I seen, you have got to be the one who most deserves recognition. Keep making good content, we will all be ready to watch it. (also I beat p-1 my first time in like 20-30 attempts he isn't that bad to beat more so that he is hard to master.)
i think hakita managed to strike basically the perfect balance with P-1. It took me ~70 attempts my first time, and I know people who took considerably longer. but we all still feel that “theres no way this is possible” at the beginning, and then miraculously overcome it.
The buildup to the Minos Prime fight is like something straight out of a creepypasta.
I like how your boss list goes from god straight to Jetstream Sam
Very good video! When I finally reached Minos' fight I was impressed at how difficult it was (even the flesh prison) but after I figured it out it was all just a matter of knowing his patterns
Insane Quality for such a new channel
🙏
Never have I ever got mad at a hard boss, the first time I saw Gabriel's second phase I woo'd in excitement because I knew it would be such a great fight (I was right). this game is everything I wanted in a game and I'm happy that I played it. and king Minos/Minos prime is simply the biggest most delicious cherry on a cake I have ever seen.
No wonder minos prime is THE man who made the entirety of heaven shit itself.
great video man, insane narration really gave it the feeling of how it would be to go through all of that
Amazing video, keep up the good work!
this is a great video that summarizes the journey of playing ultrakill, this some epic work my dud
This is a very well made video, keep it up :)
I have ADHD and that one day, I drank 3 or 4 cups of coffee. I actually felt like flesh prison. All that aside, in terms of story it's Minos Prime (Fun fact: Minos actually got a microphage or whatever bacteria named after him because he's cool). If difficulty, yeah, it's Minos Prime. Don't know how to parry? Good luck on the first phase. No slab revolver? Good luck doing enough damage to him. Using slab marksman? You deserve Judgement in your face.
i beat him without slab revolver lol, just puny shot after puny shot to his face
When the mid part of order starts, Minos knows he's already been bested, but he doesn't give up, he knows he'll lose, he KNOWS, he'll die. If you replay P-1 Enough times, you feel Minos' pain and suffering, beating him over, and, over, until you really start too feel what he had to go through, he lost everything, he lost his civilzation, THAT'S, what makes Minos one of the best, saddest, tragic, characters out of all.
Source: He yells *Useless!* when you respawn, telling himself that you will just come back
I have a theory that prime souls DO remember your deaths but don't know exactly how which is why their attacks remain the same
Minos Prime is absolutely amazing and this video made me appreciate him more
Please cover Sisyphus next!
this video is amazing and deserves/needs more love and attention
Excellent pacing and storytelling. Thank you, YT algorithm, for showing me my newest sub.
9:54 thats 100% the best boss battle anyone can experience
Very hard boss + cool voice lines And a fire song! Thats just perfect…
I am personally more of a Sisyphus Prime fan. While Minos certainly set the stage for his larger, yellow counterpart, I found Sisyphus to be a boss that truly tested my endurance and critical thinking. He had a bit of a poor release due to lack of playtesting, but after his buff? He is *the* most replayable fight in the game for me. Plus, he had some banger quotes.
i will absolutely agree that he is the most replay able fight probably ever made, but i like minos because i love the way his character is written, and the fact that he was first. gameplay wise, sisyphus is probably better.
@@yrowe I think Sisyphus was just robbed out of a proper buildup. Ofc he wouldn't get a main campaign fight, but I do wish he was at least given more detail in ACT 2. Possibly some mentioning in Wrath could've been neat as well, given the futile struggle of the souls drowning in Styx's waters.
woahhhh.. talk about an underrated channel man! :D
I'll follow you through your journey, can't wait for you to blow up :)
pretty cool to see someone play ultrakill this well tbh. you sure know how to go fast and kick ass!
Dam you are really underrated keep up the good work
ultrakill perfectly masters the level skill level
every passing time you play the game
you get stronger
but ultrakill did it PERFECTLY
first time beating minos prime was like
I cant do this
its too hard
impossible
but in the last try
as i got stronger
all the P ranks
the last try was like leveling up
the skill got from you suck to extremely high level
like leveing 50 level ups from 1 level in a rpg
i felt it
and so my friend who beat minos too
you dont just beat it once you beat it forever
everytime you try after you beat it once(unless you havent played for a long time) you can beat it in little tries (1 or 2)
right after P-1
I P ranked it
in little to no tries
Just beat Minos Prime an hour before this. Feels GREAT to hear my emotional state summed up.
I still get chills from hearing the first bits of the song
Honestly i can't tell which one i like better
Minos prime or Sisyphus prime
i plan to make a similar video on P-2 comparing minos and sisyphus, because this is a question ive had for a while and i would like to answer it
7:39 This is almost how it feels to be hit by Ganondorf's down-air
Also, when the game is finished, we all want an option to spare Minos. I hope the devs give us that option
yeah i didnt even know he could do that, but when i was filming that he did that combo and i was like holy shit smash bros
also yes i want a minos prime playable character that would be so damn cool
One time i was crying while fighting minos
@@Meatslap "WEAK!" (I'm sorry lmao)
@@Meatslapsame lmao, 12 hours on the same level is painful
this is a really well put together video for someone who hasn't gotten to 3k yet good job
Banger video as usual bestie
I remember a quote, I think from Max0r.
"P-ranking the game to fight Minos wasn't a test, but a warning."
Such a well put together video I absolutely agree with everything.
I can't stop hearing "The World looks Red" motif in the requiem leitmotif
I adore how they reuse motifs
Incredible video, subscribed
When I went for a P-Rank (which I now have) for P-1, I always left one eye alive so I could get off as much damage as I could as well as making sure the Railgun was recharged so I could nuke the new set of eyes.
i basically just got the game. finally beat him today then went hard and get a P rank on him. Im going to be hearing him in my dreams
Congrats on getting blessed by the algorithm btw
Devourer of gods is getting a MASSIVE sprite rework. literally. he will be massive.
dude i saw i am so beyond excited for that
Like people said. Minos is the hero. You are the protaganist
I wanted to say that your gameplay is fucking amazing. You are so skilled it scares me, my god
41 secs into the vid and i already know you have an amazing taste in video games
P-Ranks are NOT. a reward.
they are a Warning for P-1 / P-2... and at some point. P-3.
Your writing is good :)
10;09
I think the song actually suits Minos more... I mean, he suffered all of that - unfair judgement, flesh prison, being tormented for unknown time... And then he gets killed by a piece of iron, failing to even help his kind.
As someone who isn't great at the game yet somehow made it to Minos, I'd like to say that "Die!" was the thing I feared most when fighting him since I wasn't familiar with his attacks.
It literally tracks you so you had the right to
I was too busy getting my ass kicked that I didn't notice how good the soundtrack is, so im glad to hear the music again
I still hear minos prime's voice on my sleep, he absolutely drained all my energy
I like how in the intro, he mentions 2 metal gear rising bosses, senator armstrong and jetstream sam
Nice vid bro
Video of the year
I still find it funny how absolutely easy the eyeballs are to deal with on the Flesh Prison fight as long as you know how to core nuke using the Malicious Railcannon
All his attacks are so fair and fun to dodge once you get used to it. I love it
yes truly. after p-1 nothing could scare me now. but that. that thing. (p-2) it scares me. to the very last bone it freezes me as i remember the horrors it contained the pain and suffering i had to go through. no one or thing should ever experience that kind of pain
Order just stops me from wanting to leave your video before it ends...
why do I all of a sudden imagine minos and gwyn from dark souls having a tea party
Ngl, P-Ranking him after like 200+ restarts and 3 days of trying is the best ive felt playing a video game
thats an overstatement
what an amazing video
Ultrakill does such an incredible job at having the player feel like they tangibly got better. My first minos prime run was on standard and took 90 attempts, literally a week later I p-ranked him on violent. In that week I didn’t get some new op weapon, or grind some stat to destroy him. All I did was merely practice, and enough practice makes you feel overpowered in this game.
its the only game that ive played where you aren’t limited by your arsenal, but your skill and creativity, which is why its so damn cool and satisfying
@@yrowe yeah man my friend killed him with the revolver
I absolutely get what you mean, I went from just barely beating him on standard to be able to beat him just by punching only in a couple of weeks, its an amazing feeling tbh
The song sounds like talking to your friend after they just got their heart broken
watched this when it had 500 views, now it has 10k views, good job
Guess what torment I’m going to subject myself this week
I remember Minos...and it only took me 300 restarts!!! :DDDD
(after having now beaten P-2 in 100 restarts, I went back and easily P-ranked Minos)
now imagine if like P-5 in the future required you to Perfect rank all other P levels
there wont be p-5, as theres only 9 layers with 3 prime level
When you master this man and just P rank him daily hits hard
I cannot tell you how much I screamed when I beat violent Minos pranked
Seems like Minos is fighting the boss, you. I don’t play the game but it looks like it
I love Minos Prime he's definitely my favorite boss in ULTRAKILL with Sisyphus Prime a close second. I love Minos Prime so much I P ranked P-1 only using my fist against Minos and just now I beat Minos Prime with force radiance on and then did it again fist only. God I love that boss so much
“The sound of combat.. The taste of blood.. And the feeling of pure battle..”
…
…
*FILLS YOU WITH DETERMINATION*
Minos prime is a boss who screams "die" and then actually beat the crap out of you
"I SPENT ALL OF IT ON PERCS!!!" -Minos Prime on being asked about the outstanding balance.
Ultrakill is a game that can be described just buy a few words:
When you’re the unstoppable force, but there’s no impenetrable wall
i’d like to note that in ORDER, you can hear motifs of the lust themes
you can also hear minos’s sadness in bridgeburner
Now I need a video about Sisyphus. :)
Before seeing or watching this video. I've actually seen a video about speedrunners killing this boss.. Minos, in around a minute, complete with all S scores. And after watching this video, I have now understood just how hard it actually was to do make such an achievement, and how easy the speedrunners made it look like(especially to someone who hasn't played the game personally) to actually achieve such a thing.
Can't wait for the moment hell is finally empty and we get to slay heaven
First time I've beaten P-1 the end screen showed 1 hour and 116 restarts. That was my third attempt and the first one that I've beaten Flesh Prison. I didn't wanted to go through Flesh Prison so I pushed as hard as I can.
After beating it, my first attempt took like 10 minuted and 6 restarts. This level teaches and increases your skills so much it's incredible.
great vid
644 subscribers? Channel is extremely underrated
I prefer Sisyphus, but I’d be lying if I said Minos wasn’t a close second lol
My gratitude on thee for thy kind flattery
Watched the entire video then realized u dont got millions of views, so underrated.
