10 Great Video Games With TERRIBLE Bosses
4. The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
Considering The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time has the highest score on Metacritic, it's arguably the most celebrated video game of all time.
Nevertheless, the follow-up, Majora's Mask, surpassed its predecessor in many ways, focusing more on character developments, personal conflicts, and mature themes. After all these years, the intricate time-loop concept is still deemed one of the most innovative mechanics in the entire series.
But if there's one aspect where Majora's Mask falters, it's the bosses. Save for the guardian of the Snowhead Temple, every end-of-dungeon enemy is lame.
In most LoZ instalments, Link needs to utilise a treasure hidden inside each dungeon to vanquish the corresponding boss. But in Majora's Mask, most of the bosses can be beaten with mindless slashing, including the main antagonist.
Although the third boss, Gyorg, doesn't have this issue, it's still tedious to fight this dreaded creature, thanks to the awkward camera. Ironically, almost every sub-boss requires more precision and timing than the major ones.
Nintendo seemed to be aware of this criticism, since the boss battles were heavily revised when Majora's Mask was remade for the 3DS.
