I should not need to explain this one.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

We've seen 3 phase boss battles. Maybe even 4.

Where's the game with a 10-stage boss battle? I wanna yell "WHY WONT YOU JUST DIE?!" after he gets up for the 6th time in a row.

maybe the 10 phase boss battle was us, the players all along. you die to a boss and you show up at their doorstep once more, while they are thinking “HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TEACH YOU THIS LESSON”

What's worse is you beat the absolute shit out of them and they usually get set on fire and stabbed several times . Just fine, apparently.

Nanomachines, son.

I know I've played a JPRG where the final boss had six stages, but it also was annoying, not epic because I was overleveled and the game wasn't hard in the first place

World of Warcraft had some fights that had way too many phases. Illidan had 5 if i remember right.
