Raphael Boss Fight, Pretty good.

[Cpt.P1mp]

I liked it.
Was actually challenging. Died once cuz i attempted in just 3 party members and forgot there was that healing fountain before the fight.

+ the songs
He did a kamikaze close to death? wiped out 3 out of 4 of my squad. Good thing my main guy is like almost 200hp with all these health items xd.

Yeah, the song is pretty baller.

It's kinda a shame how weak he is to wisdom saving throws, though.

But my favourite factoid from that fight:

You can't use Banish on Raphael, because Banish sends devils and such back to their home plane. And Raphael is home.

[Cpt.P1mp]

I actually fought that maybe i had gotten in a fight i wasnt meant to, so many warnings beforehand xD. Was decent tho.

I had him in fits of laughter throughout. I did not consider it a shame xD

Definitely one of the signature battles in BG3.

Honestly was insultingly easy.
Was not prepared for a fight like that and thought to myself 'well great.. will need to reload' but gave it a go anyway. Won on first try and he didn't even come anywhere close to killing any of my party members.
Expected more out of a guy that has 666 (very funny Larian...) HP. But no, he just died like a ♥♥♥♥♥.

[Cpt.P1mp]

Honestly tho i feel more for Raph than any other bosses so far and probably future ones. I actually had a buildup with him since act1.
These other enemies i never faced or met, just heard a name. Ketheric Thorn was meh and so are the rest.

Could do without the ultra corny Disney music.

Wish they'd abstained form putting any music with lyrics in tbh, it all feels extremely out of place.

To be honest, I don't really like it when I am artificially restricted in my opportunity to fight freely, I'm not a fan of it.


One of the worst of these bosses is Wasteland 3: Cult of the Holy Detonation and the final boss of the humorous tactical rpg The Dungeon Of Naheulbeuk: The Amulet Of Chaos. There, you have to dance the boss to remove his shield, and he summons enemies

In Wasteland 3, they made music with lyrics for each boss or important battle, I really like this approach and the choice of music is always in theme

I was able to turn his big homey against him and get him to fight on my side. The soundtrack to that fight is the best in the game.

If the game were a children's movie or a musical play I'd agree that it was fitting. It's not though.

Good music for the fight.
ALso dont get me started on Wasteland3, i thoroughly enjoyed that. Unlike this.
If it'd be me, id put WL3 above this.

Oh,

Blood of the Lamb alone was fantastic.

In terms of gameplay and all, I'd put BG3 over Wasteland 3, but BG3's got nothing on the soundtrack of Wasteland 3.

It's supposed to be funny. Relax.

Tastes i suppose. I couldnt but WL3 down and had 12h sessions till i finished it.
This? im forcing myself to finish it.
Idk, just doesn't hit me the same.

Maybe its the plot, the characters.

Well, if you can finish one game in a few 12h sessions, doesn't that kinda tell you something?

Though I'm sure you could probably do the same with BG3, you'd just miss out on so much.
