Dark Souls 3.

Only non-DLC boss i had harder time with was the Nameless King (but he's optional). That said the final boss wasn't that hard imo.

Pretty silly stipulation.

Er no it's not. That's the point of the topic, the final boss is harder than any optional ones.

Enter the Gungeon

The Heart in Slay the Spire

That's if you count true final bosses that are optional, though EtG would still count anyway since the Dragun is the next hardest after the true final boss.

Maybe Star Ocean 2 especially with limiter release, it is definitely one of the hardest.

I remember the final boss in Dante's Inferno being notably harder than the rest of the game.

Not that silly of a stipulation.
Optional bosses are optional for a reason.

Kobe > LeBron. It's only internet stat nerds who think Lebron is better. Watch the games and stop calculating Lebron's PER with your wristwatch calculator.

The final boss of the original Paper Mario is actually pretty brutal. And there aren't cheese strats like with The Master.

Man, fuck that fight. My jaw dropped over how much of a difficulty spike that was. The aiming functions should not have been that much of a struggle.

Horizon Zero Dawn

This game didn't really have a boss at all. The boss was just endless waves of enemies.

I agree with some of the above games. Of the ones not mentioned, maybe Undermine. That said, the only reason I say the final boss is hard is because you start with barely anything, of anything at all. Where by the time you fight any other boss, you have relics, bombs, blessings, etc... You have to try to collect stuff while fighting the boss in the final boss fight. And he can destroy items and stuff, or push it off the cliff...

Oh. Do fighting games count. Normally, the last enemy is usually the hardest...
