He's the best soulsborne boss overall, I think. He has good arena(literally the end of times, lightning in the second/third phase), great design, good sfx(sword clangs, rapid fire sound, his screams), he namedrops "Dark Souls" 2 times(its funny tbh), great ost, beautiful moveset(it's not hard but it's very pretty and acrobatic, especially phase 3), no runback, and he's the last boss of the trilogy which also gives him significance. IMO all the stars have alligned when they made this boss.

In my opinion, Gael as a whole cannot be beaten. The fight, the music, the arena, the lore, the final Dark Souls boss. He will forever be, for me at least, the greatest From Soft boss.

The answer is, yes, yes he is. The fight has everything: *High lore relevance *build up across 2 DLCs *OST is ridicolously good *desolate wasteland as final battle, because we are at the literal end of the world *a moveset that is like a dance that gives you clear openings to attack *does an homage to Artorias' cutscene in which he throws a corpse in the player's direction *is a walking Berserk reference (1st phase is basically inner beast of darkness taking over Guts and he is feral, while 2nd and 3rd phase he reclaims at least partially his humanity) While Gael is a carefully crafted bossfight that has balanced gameplay all around and clear openings and non-openings and is a waltz, a lot of Elden Ring bosses feel like they are Tangos to which you have to dance to Dragonforce while Herman Li is on fucking coke. It is explosive, it is a spectacle, it is chaotic/hectic, but not really satisfying and in the end your feet are tired and your ears are ringing and you did not really enjoyed the dance, but you´ll probably tell your friends how awesome it was to particiapte.

As someone who started with Elden Ring, my experience with Gael was underwhelming compared to the mythos he gets from DS3 fans. I played DS3 for the first time after beating NG+7 ER and Beating DS1, so I was used to both the slower parts of the combat from DS1 and the faster parts of the combat similar to ER. This made bosses that would've been hard had DS3 been my first souls game like Nameless King, Midir, and Gael all relatively easy experiences to me at the time I encountered them, (note I was at the recommended level for all of these bosses) as I had already learned most of the combat lessons these games had to learn. I still enjoyed the DS3 bosses but I think I beat Gael in around 10 tries at most which couldn't compare to something like me learning Malenia for the first time. I think Gael is a good boss and I would've enjoyed him more if DS3 was my first Souls game but as I encountered him he just couldn't live up to the hype.

Great time to see this in my feed! I also think about how awesome Gael is, along with tons of other DS3 bosses like Abyss Watchers, Sister Friede, Soul of Cinder, etc. They have a fair variety of attacks that range from short to long combos and bring in spectacle without overloading the player. When I look at Elden Ring bosses and how there's so much visual clutter and obnoxiously long attack strings in them, I understand why players feel so inclined to just cheese the living hell out of them. Even though bosses like Malenia are extremely challenging when fought 1v1, she feels nowhere as fun or fair as someone like Nameless King. Also don't fret about the stuttering, you can always re-record if you trip up on some words. Write a script, break it down into segments, practice and then record, you have plenty of time ^^

I like the video since it concisely explains your opinion, there isn't any fluff to it but your feelings on the matter is conveyed pretty well. Me personally, I would put a decent amount of Sekiro and ER/SOTE bosses above him. If you were to include AC6, I would put some of the bosses there above him too. My most controversial opinion however is that he isn't even the best boss in DS3. I think the reason why is because I value mechanics more than most people, which isn't a roundabout way of saying 'I'm better', a lot of people more skilled than me would disagree, it's just that everyone has their own personal ranking of which factors are more important than others in a boss fight, and it just feels like the mechanics of a fight has more weight in my rankings than other people. I think very few bosses have an OST, arena, or lore as interesting as Gael, but a decent amount beat him out mechanically. I think his fight is still great, it's just that it didn't really force me to strategise. I fought him without thinking much, and unfortunately I wasn't punished in any way at all for that, and it felt as if I had figured out his fight before I even stepped into the arena, despite never seeing footage of it before. He wasn't too easy, but he was a bit too simple.
