  • Morgan Freeman LMAO having him as a final boss among the same difficulty as a Dark Souls boss cracks me up.
  • @dbj7643
    The only placement I’m baffled by is the Maneaters, they aren’t harder than any boss on this list by a long shot lol
  • @raselkhan9302
    This list would be so accurate if u take 30 bosses from only formsoftwere games.
  • @BobDylan-ho2gd
    Here to say. It took me 400 tries to beat Malenia, but I could never beat Sword Saint :(
  • @ELDniel-DW5pg
    i actually fought isshin and he was kinda tough, but he felt like a joke next to demon of hatred
  • @BlazerK1914
    Fighting Vergil as Dante before fighting him as Nero has been a blast. Also, I really like how Nero curses at Vergil in an over the top way😄 which activates his Devil Trigger.
  • @gshaunsweeney
    Sephiroth was a piece of cake compared to The Lingering Will aka Terra in Kingdom Hearts 2.
  • @_Paul.
    They must have only played Kingdom Hearts 2 and not Kingdom Hearts 2.5 remix because the Lingering Will was by far harder than sephiroth. By far harder. I played both in critical mode
  • I never really found Isshin as difficult as all the other hardest soul series bosses. He had weakness and exploitations I could use and once I had I read every move of his like an open book.
  • @Drequan
    how is malenia number 11 here but number 2 on the hardest bosses of the century list? and yes the other 10 were modern bosses from the 2010s before someone says something
  • @46sn29
    Personally, I think Gna in Ragnarok was far worse than Sigrun. Took me about 8 tries to beat Sigrun. Gna was closer to 20 attempts, if not more.
  • @jawwadccc
    Maneater at 3? The list could use some refinement, not the content but the ordering
  • @jinratgeist
    If you're gonna put a Kingdom Hearts boss on the list, put in Lingering Will instead of Sephiroth. But if you really wanna put in Sephiroth, put in Virtual Sephiroth from FFVII Rebirth.
  • @killerjoke2945
    You got Isshin right but dude seriously Maneaters at 3?
  • @j.r.hawkins3098
    Absolute Virtue from Final Fantasy XI should be #1. Any boss that takes roughly 18-24 hours for ONE attempt is pure insanity.
