12 Broken Video Game Bosses We NEED To Call Out
1. The Nameless King - Dark Souls III
Soulsborne games are so agonisingly difficult, it seems criminal not to mention at least one in a list dedicated to tough bosses.
So, it's no surprise that #1 on our list stems from the Dark Souls franchise. After reaching Archdragon Peak in Dark Souls III, you will encounter one of the series' most infamous foes, The Nameless King. In the first phase, the silent warrior will attack you while riding his dragon. Even though his strikes are quick and merciless, you should best him, if you stay on your toes.
But after killing his mount, the Nameless King will absorb its power, initiating the real final battle. What makes this towering deity so ruthless is how unpredictable his attacks are. There's little or no indication when he's going to strike or from what angle.
Because of this, it feels like every one of your assaults is a gamble. Because one hit from his electrified spear can bring your health down to nothing, a single misstep or miscalculation will cost you dearly.
Even though every player walks into The Nameless King's domain looking for a challenge, no one is ready for this battle.
