10 Terrifying Video Game Bosses You Felt Bad For
2. Sif The Giant Wolf - Dark Souls
It should be a crime asking someone to take on a good boy like Sif the Giant Wolf from Dark Souls in a gripping fight to the death.
A giant grey wolf residing in Darkroot Garden, Sif was Artorias the Abysswalker's loyal companion during his life and will still leap to defend his master should the player venture too close to Artorias' gravestone. As well as being a huge wolf, Sif is also armed with his master's old sword which he wields in his mouth.
The quickest way to beat Sif is by watching out for his area of effect attacks, closing the distance between the two of you and attacking him as much as you can from underneath his stomach. Trust us when we say this fight is the definition of the quicker it's done, the better.
This is an encounter that we could honestly do without. It's always a nasty feeling having to take on an animal in a game, but Sif really takes this unease to a new level when you realise that he is literally just defending his master's resting place.
