Boss fights are an important part of video games. Even though their importance has dwindled over time, they’re still a major part of how we look at games and how we judge them. But, of course, not all games do boss fights as well as others. In this feature, we’re going to take a look at fourteen boss fights from games released in 2017 that turned out to be rather underwhelming . If you disagree with any of our picks, and feel like there were others that we failed to mentioned, sound off in the comments section below.

Spoilers ahead.

THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: BREATH OF THE WILD- CALAMITY GANON / DARK BEAST GANON

The Legend of Zelda franchise has always been known for featuring some excellent boss fights. Breath of the Wild came along and changed a lot of things, and that, unfortunately enough, was one of them. There weren’t really any boss fights in the entire game that can compare to what we’re used to seeing from the series, but the final two-legged battle against Ganon has to be the most disappointing of them all. It was a pretty straightforward fight, not to mention the fact that it was also surprisingly easy. The entire game built up Calamity Ganon as a truly terrifying villain, but the final battle against him just couldn’t do that justice.
