The Gonarch boss fight is still awful like it was before, it's just now actually possible to beat it on hard without cheating or using the cyanide exploit.

How was it awful? I had a blast with Gonarch before and I still have a blast when I play it now.

Part 1 and the chase was great but part 2 was BS on Normal difficulty which was what I was playing up till that point, and even on easy it was about as hard as I'd expect on Normal.

Just beat Gonarch. It was a bit too on the hard side, I believe its because of his massive hit boxes. Gonarch is also too fast to properly avoid using strafe and quick dashes. I still loved the fight though.

How many fcking shots does it take?! Also the dodging mechanics is pretty stupid since the Gonarch keeps following you if you dogde 1ms too early.

Have to agree. Dunno what the devs were thinking. I am only forcing myself to play this because im fan of the series, because, seriously, trying to kill him is no fun. Even on the first fight i though the fight was annoying. First because of the accidented ground that sometimes just stops you mid dash because you barely touched some random rock on the ground and then youre dead half a sec later youre dead. Second because the gonarch keeps folowing you like forever and you dont have enough dashes to flee. Third because part of your shoors often dont trigger his pain animation, even though i'm firing at his ballsack thing lol. I'm a fps "veteran", i'm no scrub and this is too hard for me, imagine for normal people i.e. casuals?

Oh i almost forgot, theres also the load times problem, you die so much fighting him and the loads are so long that like half the time spent was on loading screens. Not fun.

I beat Gonarch on normal. I dont think shes too bad at all, I actually like the fight. She could be a bit slower or hit a bit less hard tho.

yeah I LIKED gonarch part 2 it just seemed like they were hitting a smidge too hard and was too quick/aggressive to respond to and actually do damage.

Gonarch has one annoying attack where it homes in on you while running at you. You can tell it's happening because before it goes after you it pounds the ground significantly faster and more aggressively than it would a normal dash. You can avoid this by jumping out of the way ONLY when it's just about to hit you. Its normal dashing at you is incredibly easy to dodge. There's also the pillars it kicks at you, which do MASSIVE damage and are VERY hard to see coming. Luckily it doesn't happen that often, and also good thing they nerfed it a little, as before the pillars would just flat out insta kill you even at full health. Other than that, I feel like the boss is fine, and just hard enough to kill. The only thing "hard" about the fight is timing the music perfectly to the moment you kill the Gonarch.
Either I'm really good at Black Mesa (which I sincerely doubt lol), or yall are terrible at it.

Hard mode , but i played the first version of the boss fight that was a lot harder and it was awesome , so , this fight is a piece of cake and i hate the community for being so casuals.
