Alduin – Skyrim
Skyrim is a long and epic game full of exciting side quests, caves, monsters, and of course, dragons. Only the main quest – typical Bethesda – does not quite convince. Even more disappointing is the fact that not even the final boss can impress. The dragon Alduin is presented to us for hours as a great threat and final boss, but the actual fight can only be described as disappointing.
The oh-so-powerful dragon is quickly defeated, but unfortunately, the fight can drag on because Alduin likes to fly high in the sky, lands in unreachable places, or suffers from minor bugs. When he finally gets near the player, they are likely far too powerful for the boss and take him down quite quickly.
Thus, Alduin primarily stays in memory due to its ridiculousness and puts an ignoble end to an otherwise successful game. It fails to fulfill its reputation as the mightiest of all dragons. Many other bosses in Skyrim were considerably more impressive and provided more fun.
These were five terrible bosses that stick in our minds for the wrong reasons. What do you think about it? Do you know any other candidates that should also be on the list? Feel free to let us know in the comments. A fight from Dark Souls was a negative example in this article, but fortunately, there are others that are much better: One of the best boss fights in Dark Souls was so sad that I didn’t even want to defeat the monster in the end
