10 Great Video Games With TERRIBLE Bosses
9. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
It's hard to know where to start while singing Skyrim's praises. Its immense world, personalised perk system, dual-wielding weapons, accessible user interface, and diverse spells are but a sample of this masterpiece's highlights.
However, one of the few factors that didn't garner acclaim is the bosses. Considering the story centres around dragons laying waste to the world, fighting these almighty beasts should've been a sight to behold.
And yet, the most daunting adversaries can be eliminated by chucking a few fireballs from afar or by hacking them to pieces. Later enemies don't pose much trouble despite hefty health bars, so long as the Dragonborn has a selection of potions in stock.
Annoyingly, the Elder Scrolls sequel saves the worst boss for last. Not only is the showdown with Alduin depressingly generic, it's more aggravating since it can take over a hundred hours to reach him.
What makes this criticism more noticeable is the fact Skyrim has a bloat of bosses. If Bethesda focused less on endless draugrs, warlocks, and wyverns, they would've had more time to make each encounter enthralling, epic, and most importantly, less crap.
