What's that video game boss you've never been able to beat, or took you the longest to beat? (sh.itjust.works)

I was a couple of attempts short of calling it quits on Simon in Clair Obscur. I don't like QTEs and the whole fight is "parry or die"

And yes I know now that I could have done the cheese strat of megabuffing Maille for a one shot but I think reading strategy guides for single player games is a major dork move

Afterward, I wasn't excited or proud. I was just relieved to not think about it anymore

    my friends don't get that. its an extra credit boss in a single player game, why would I spoil that for myself with a guide someone else made?

    i haven't beaten him yet, I give it a few tries every month or so. my way of prolonging the beauty of the game I guess lol

    Seemed to be a lot of the postgame bosses in CO. After one try, I understood them all as extra challenges available for those who want them. But given they’re literally just rhythm timing that eventually makes you invincible, I don’t quite know who’d find that interesting.
