Gimme a hit marker or a different sound effect or something. You'll just hear the sound of the bullet hitting them but no visual cue to let you know if youre even doing anything. A lot of the bosses do this shit. Including the final boss. Im here running around wondering if im even doing damage...

Yeah, uh, what? I saw this in the Dunkey video where he was shooting vampire lady and it seemed to be doing absolutely nothing, like ACTUALLY nothing

never played an RE

Aim for the "body" of the boss and not their monster form. They all have a weak spot. When you shoot it, they will flinch. You can still kill them by shooting their non weak spots, it just takes forever.

Yeah, I just did three optional bosses back to back and they were just damage sponges. I'm fine with mini bosses not being multi stage meat and eyeball RE monsters but dumping all my heavy weapons into Big Dude With Axe while he just keeps walking towards me was not exactly engaging.

I'm almost certain none of the bossfights have invulnerable areas. They take damage everywhere, but they'll take extra damage in certain weak points which are super obvious.
