Years and years of playing games has conditioned us to look at any enemy or antagonistic character in a game as a potential boss fights. Because that’s what games do, right? They introduce these formidable foes or ghastly creatures, and eventually let you take them on in dramatic duels.
Well, not always. There have been more than a few instances of games introducing characters that you think are going to be centerpieces of such encounters, but never really get their own boss fights. This is a feature about a few such characters.

I would so love to play as Gandalf he was badass in Return of The King Agauder Witch King would be so awesome i really hope they hope they make new Lord of Rings game it is been a while we never got onve
Asura from Asura's Wrath was the first one I thought of.
For god of war i was thinking the world serpent lol.
Pretty original list 👌🏾
🤩
Is it really so hard to just list the fucking games or mention the game first, then the character?
eh think wanted to face a fully upgraded Corvo from dishonour
The Illusive Man is not a fighter, a boss battle would make no sense against him. And fighting a big boss like the Harbinger would be too against type in Mass Effect, it would have to be some kind of puzzle fight, and those rarely are satisfactory.

When i 1st encountered the World Serpent in God of War I shit myself i was so fukin relieved when I found out he was friendly
Gargant. The boss that is fought and defeated in the opening cut scene of Onimusha 3. The cut scene is one of the best I've seen, but no gameplay.
Snake did fight skull face wasn't skull-face controlling the metal gear or inside of it or something
The titan from FFXIII
What about Jaral tapal
0:16, He's staring into your soul
Everybody likes Batman I like Nightwing I think he's a more interesting character than Catwoman that's just my opinion
They needed create a animated series or a cartoon of Nightwing
Thank you for not praising gow and acting like it’s perfect
9:00 ur a noob
Catwoman couldn't have been a traditional boss fight. Mini- maybe. They've never been so greatly opposed to each other's ideals that they would come in true direct opposition. They're attracted, and they dance around it – mostly due to DC disliking marriage and probably wanting to avoid complications about linking him to a 'villain.' However, there are too many who would be cheesed off if he ever really did fight her. Without holding back, as I'd argue he does out of his sense of chivalry, which is not dead. So much as discretion is still the better part of not being attacked for the attempt. The fact he respects, and is attracted comes into play, as does on her side, the fact she doesn't disagree and WANTS to be good. She just doesn't like control in the same way, unless it's in her hands. Which of course, he can't give. So there's an interesting dichotomy that they create, but they'll never be strictly to each other, the hero and the villain. Or the protagonist, and otherwise impasse as an obstacle before him. They also probably wanted to avoid arguments of seeming to advocate domestic violence, since no matter who wins there is continuity where they have been romantically partnered and did sire a child together. Doesn't matter if they've decided it's "not canon." Then there's the fact that they could still be, at any moment DC thinks it'd financially benefit most to allow it, means they won't rock the boat on that will they, won't they attempt.
God of war, no not the bird. The serpent should be a bossfight and there im dissapointed
