    While I can understand being disappointed by the lack of All-Mind’s involvement in the main game, I feel it does an amazing job at being a secret antagonist for what is (for all intents and purposes) a secret ending. If I had to compare it to anything, it would be similar to Yuria and the quest line for Londor in DS3. In that game, kindling the flame and letting it fade are the main endings, and Yuria’s rather than being a supposed “true” or “correct” ending is more of a side route that could be good or bad depending on how you interpret it. Usurping the fire isn’t integral to the story, but an interesting sub route that some may find interesting. All Mind and it’s ending us very similar, since it’s ending is very different from the fires or raven and liberator or rubicon ending. It isn’t inherently good or bad, and is just a different pathway the player can take that is intentionally hidden. I don’t know if that summarizes how I feel, but personally it’s the reason I think it passes as a good ending story wise (also I’m a pretty big fan of All Mind and Iguazu in general for how they are as characters). Gameplay wise, while the first phase is somewhat annoying, I think the 2nd and 3rd phases definitely make up for it. The 3rd phase especially I love because it tests you directional evasion skills by having you maneuver around the slashes from Iguazu perfectly. All in all, I can understand why you like it, but that’s just my general mindset behind why I love it so much. It’s personally one of my favorite FromSoftware bosses, and either my first or second place for AC6 (maybe behind Snail Balteus because his conniving personality is SUPERB).

    @@BillySYT AGREED!!! I especially love his dialogue throughout the fight. For example, if you defeated snail in the mission against Carla & Chatty he’ll say that he’s fighting you because you tried to kill him. However, if you ignore him and go directly to Carla he’ll instead say that you “ignored” him. It’s just an amazing shift in his dialogue that shows how self centered he is. Also I love his phase 2 transition. Him growling “I AM ARQUEBUS” will never not get old.

    As someone who's platnumed the game, Here's a tip for S-ranking Jorgan: Kill. That's it, just kill everything, as fast as you can. Go for the fuel tanks of course, and bring alot it weapons that can one shot MT's with a very fast cool down. Just kill everything in sight as fast as possible, damage doesn't even matter for the boss fight

    Bro, I absolutely LOVED this game when it came out. It's one of my top 10, for sure. I fell in love and got all of the achievements. Great list, though my number 1 is the Ice Worm. It's such a gimmick boss, but it is so cinematically well done. Visually impeccable, sound design (and great use of silence), significance to the story. I always go back to this mission because of the first moment with best boy Rusty and him saying, "I won't miss." Even thinking about it as I write this comment gives me chills. And all of the end boss fights are amazing, for sure. Especially with Rusty (as sad as it was). Though something will always stand out about the Ice Worm.

    Rusty during the Ice Worm fight is the best a character's been in any of these games. He gave me chills, though I wish they'd done the "Watch out for friendly fire" line first, then the "I won't miss" after the 2nd shot.

    @@BillySYT While I don't necessarily agree with "watch out for friendly fire" first, I can see your perspective. I think "I wont miss" being such a strong line and introduced first works so well to really emphasize the severity of the situation. I think "watch outu for friendly fire" should've been scrapped for something far stronger. The line is overall 'meh' in my opinion. It's, like, something that doesn't really need to be said by that point in the fight, nor can you damage your allies, anyway. Last thing, I sent an email to you about this video. Wanted to let you know on here if you happen to check your business email seldomly. Anyway, great video, Billy! Solid list.

    I think the almond (all mind) fight gave me the hardest challenge frankly because my build choice kinda sucked and got nerfed before I got to the fight. (It was double rifles a song bird and the coral moonlight weapon on a quadruped. There was also swift build I brought that kept running out of ammo at like 4% health and I hated trying to punch almond to death with that build) I didn’t do well with the 3rd phase because to me it was a damage check I got there with full health and a heal and it kept melting me down. I switched out the songbird for a needle and replaced the head and just eeked out a victory in the end. The fight was probably the hardest as I found a pretty easy way to cheese basically every other boss short of snailtaeus which while I love frustrated me a little more to lose to. Speaking of the needle personally I really hated the ice worm too which is apparently contriversal (I was bored because while it was in theory cool in practice in bored me and I hate gimmick fights like the stormbringer fights in dark souls though it makes me super happy that the weapon is actually amazing post gimmick. Gonna be honest never bothered using it outside of it until I was looking for help for almond and I was told that the needle was fantastic) it’s always fascinating to see how different people feel about the game!

    Smart Cleaner was my roadblock too. Before him, I played as a literal tank: tread legs, bazookas, and grenade launchers. But fighting Cleaner as a tank is torture. This was a boss that actually motivated me to make a more mobile and versatile AC, even though still quite a heavy one. Also, I'm so happy with your top three. Actually, my personal ranking of bosses is very similar to yours.

    I agree that Freud's fight was a little underwhelming, but what puts him at the top for me is the fact that he's completely unaugmented. He made it to the top, and leads the Vespers, as a baseline human, relying on nothing but his own skills. That's what gives him the Arena S1 rank for me.

    Then it's a good thing I'm not talking about boss difficulty for the most part. It'd be titled as a difficulty ranking if I were. But I still hold fast that the Allmind fight should have been balanced with the mindset that the player WOULD have an OP build given it's NG++ content.

    Great ranking, I agree that while the actual fight us incredible, the build-up for ALLMIND was kind of lackluster (I had almost forgot who Iguazu was lmao). My favourite has got to be Arquebus Balteus though, I was heartbroken by the cinder carla mission when Rusty came and brought my moral back up; ch5 LoR was wild, it cemented AC6 as one of my favourite games ever, no wonder it is my favourite mission.

    @BillySYT Your opinion is your opinion. I think the community, in general, overrates this fight. Narratively speaking, it is solid and there are good character moments. In the gameplay of the fight, I feel like I am skating around to shoot its face once, then waiting for Rusty to blast it so I can unload on it. Then rinse and repeat. I get a developer wants to use different approaches to boss fights to keep things fresh and varied. It just did not do it for me. I would also rate the All Mind fight at number 2 for me next to Ayre. So we all have our preferences.
