    Well, I’ve never beat Sans from Undertale, but if we’re only counting those we did beat… Maybe it’s Undyne the Undying from the same game. I’m deducing that from the time it took me, but to be honest there’s a boss from another game that came to my mind first. See, neither of these bosses feel “unfairly” hard because you have to go out of your way to pick the hardest route to face them. There was one boss whose hardness seems unfair and bad, that was the third boss from the first Spectrobe game. This was really out of nowhere. The first boss took me a few tries because I wasn’t used to he game mecanics yet, the second was easy, but the third? I had to look up strategies online, make dozens of trips between my ship and the bosse’s location, fighting every mob on the way each time to level my spectrobes up in addition to digging up minerocs to feed them; got them from adult to evolved and finally then I could beat it. After this fight, my spectrobes honestly felt overleveled and every enemy from then on felt super easy.

    Worst part is, the plot didn’t even justify this boss to be so hard. It didn’t make it feel important. It wasn’t directly threatening a populated planet, it wasn’t anounced before it appeared, it was just there, in the middle of the jungle. And your mission was to find a diamond. Not an important and powerful item that’s key to saving the galaxy mind you, a dumb simple diamond, of which the only purpose is to be expensive. So why would you, Rallen, of the Nanairo cosmic patrol; charged with protecting the whole solar system, go look for it? Because some rich bastard has crucial information about the krawls and you need this information to go on, but he won’t tell you unless you give him this diamond. BITCH, if there was any logic to the plot, I’d be pointing my canon beam at his head and screaming at him to tell me all he knows or else! How dare a human withhold info necessary to save humanity?

    Oh, and if this diamond has no particular power, why is a powerful krawl guarding it? It’s not! It’s just standing on top of it by shear luck, because fuck you.

      Undyne was SO DIFFICULT. I got stuck on her after a million attempts and quit. I came back for another gen run a year later and beat her in maybe 10-15 attempts. Finally got to Sans. Tried maybe 50 times. Never beat him. Looked up the ending on YT hahaha
