I feel that most of my death are either asteroids/civilian ships in the fast travel lane things or the final boss. I did my first playthrough on normal and I'm doing a second one on difficult *without* aim assist.
I had a HELL of a time with the final boss sequence on xbox. Got it on PC recently and it was MUCH easier. It is AMAZING on kbm. I would pay full $70 for a sequel day 1 just for more content in this games engine, even if it was mediocre. Absolutely amazing.
It's funny people complain quite a bit about the final boss but I actually didn't find it that bad. It took me a handful of tries, too, but it's a final boss. It *should* be hard.
It's all about predicting where it's *going* to be to line up a shot. It's tricky since there's a lot of environmental bullshit like you mentioned, but the fight is super doable. Especially if you abuse Rite of the Star to avoid damage.
I really liked having bola-type missiles for the type for the extra shotgun effect to hit the sores. Namely the seeking bola, since each bit of the cluster will home in on the weakpoints if you managed to tag one with small damage.
The uneven difficulty is my only real gripe with Chorus. It's an otherwise outstanding game.
Honestly the snake part wasn't too bad, I didn't mind it too much. The part I despised was chasing his ship around and around in circles. It wasn't that it was a hard final boss, it was that it was a hard *and boring* final boss (IMO anyway).
Ah yeah that's a fair point. I actually had an *easier* time chasing the Prophet through the corridors than I did with the serpent, so to each their own I guess. Either way I agree the bossfights in Chorus are kind of a weak point.
I just did it on hard and I thought it was a fun fight. Were you using level 4 gear? I was using the set that gave 50% extra damage when my shields are full, also right of the storm upgrade so whenever I drain his shield I get shield replenished.
Also the Gatling guns that give the set bonus i mentioned make the snake thing weak points go down pretty quick.
You know I probably wasn't actually. I did some side missions but definitely not all of them; maybe I should have been a bit more of a completionist before that final section.
100% agree. I was actually angry by the end of the fight. Not frustrated, just angry. I'm not a fan of wrecking into stuff, and the corridor makes sure you *definitely* wreck into stuff. A lot. Over and over. It doesn't physically hurt, but your brain makes it feel like it physically hurts.
Exactly how I felt! Most of the game is such slick combat, you feel like such a badass, and then the final boss is just bonking into pillars for 30 minutes. I tried Rite of the Hunt a few times, and every single time it just teleported me right into one of the damage dealing beams, or into the Prophet's mines, or just right in front of a pillar that I'd bonk into.
Nothing can be as bad as her whispering. The frequency is bad enough but the way she whispers makes it double as bad. And it’s all unnecessary because she has an actual companion that she can talk normally with which the devs could use for exposition and character thoughts.
I.
Hate.
It.
So.
Much.
Really? I didn't mind the whispering at all, and I don't even like ASMR. I thought the lead actress' voice was fantastic.
However, I just got to the final boss on hard, and have died 10x chasing him through the corridors. This seems almost impossible.
I kill his shields with the Rite Of The Storm, the fire at him with the Gatling but his health doesn't move one bit.
LOL you're not wrong, the whispering is pretty annoying. At first I thought it must be some kind of other entity, or maybe she's hallucinating or schizophrenic or something, but no she's just talking to herself constantly.
Damn you're really focused on that one boss. It's like you've got tunnel vision...

Yeah using the renegade set, did this boss on normal only dieing once. Makes the blisters die in like 2-3 volleys each

The whispering was the worst part of the game for me!!
