you actually dont have to use the lightning if you have the hylian shield block his attacks and strike during them like the first round then the final attack
when i was fighting him in the first phase my shield BROKE i was ready to restart but then the 2nd phase came around and i didn't even need a shield and beat him.
I really like the way he has a glowing wound on his face just like Ganondorf has the glowing wound in his chest in Twilight Princess. One walks with wounds made by the Goddess herself, the other carries the mark of a failed execution by the ancient Sages.
@gildrop What makes him interesting is the buildup as the game progressed, the fact that it;s revealed that in a time before humans, the gods fought Demise and his demons a la God of War, and the fact that this one, ultimate incarnation of concentrated demonic evil is the reason for all of the evil that Link faces in later games.
If you don't find that interesting, you obviously don't know enough about the series or maybe even this one game to judge whether or not Demise is interesting.
This boss was kinda fun but it wasn't near as epic as OoT, there was no build up whatsoever, they didnt mention Demises same until late in the game! And it was easy as hell. Fun though
@bballleen13 From the beginning, all Ghirahim spoke of was reviving his master.
And if Demise wasn't mentioned until late in the game, then who the hell did you think you were looking at leading all of the demons in the Goddess Legend introductory cinematic?
@bballleen13 although not as epic as the final boss in OOT (the best final boss ever imo) this boss is certainly a lot more difficult than ganon. there is nothing difficult about rolling through ganon's legs then hitting his tail.
@33LB True, but also there was Ganondorf (who I guess you can consider, in boss stage wise, to be Ghirahim in relation), who was a lot harder than Demise. Demise was pretty easy, shield bash and you cant lose, and then the lightning part is easy too.
not to make a skyrim joke, just pointing out that both the final blow here reminds me that in skyrim in some rare times, the guards say "then i took a sword trough the chest" instead of an arrow to the knee.
i played at the defensive o this boss, shield raised all the time and countering every single attack of him to create my openings, really easy, beaten on first try
@FaneelkFFXI yeah me too...well until the last minute. i was getting beat and i raised my sword by mistake and boom lol. it was cool kinda like a final move special thing.
I have a question though: Is there a certain rule for charging your blade? What I KINDA noticed is that the only chance to charge your blade is when lightning is about to strike...is that true? Someone please tell me.
@Toonlink003 Who said Ultima was showing us these boss fights to prove he's a pro? I believe no one did. I doubt anyone cares about your friend beating the boss in 42 seconds anyway. I certainly don't, atleast.
@LuigiMolaSaco my theory is it is gannondorf actually, if you see Demise's dialogue after beating him it say 'an endless incarnation of me will haunt you' who do you think that incarnation is?
Cool how Takashi Nagasako did Demise's voice. Nagasako-san also did Ganondorf's voice in Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker, further connecting the fact that Ganondorf is Demise's reincarnation.
Trivia: Takashi Nagasako also voices Donkey Kong currently... as well as Cranky Kong in Donkey Kong Country Returns and DK: Jungle Climber.
i like how this guy can take a full heart or 2 when he hits you. it pissed me off when ganondorf in tp did just about half a heart which is just pathetic
When I tried to use the Skyward Strike nothing happened, so I thought it didn't work.. So I had to beat him by blocking with my shield a few times in a row, then hitting him ONCE when I had the chance before my sword made contact with his powered up. :/
I love that ganondorf is the incarnation of an ancient demon king of destruction and malevolence, zelda is incarnation of a ancient goddess entrusted with the triforce by even more awesome goddesses,
...
but LINK is just a PURE BADASS. He's better then all the kings, dragons, ninja beings, spirits, demons and goddesses, and he's just a guy!
horray for your humanistic themes, skyward sword!
also, the triforce can only be wielded to its full extent by humans.
so that is the easy way to kill him? i used the parring(my arm >.<),,, i was a little scared i felt that in any second he will launch a metsu hadouken (looks like,,, oni-akuma)
@Duorsa if this was early then why is there a master sword then? One cause ganondorf was killed in tp and 2 there was no master sword back then got it? Although the insigma of skyloft was rarely noticeable in the games album so idk what to say but this:
@thexpertgamer101 Dude, this is the Master Swords ORIGINS, as in, IT'S BEGINNINGS.
Skyward Sword is the predecessor of every other Zelda game out there. Just because there wasn't a "Master Sword" in a game, dosen't mean it didn't exist. It just wasn't used, or was shown in a different form.
@Delectrick102 this game is so early in the timeline, that Ganondorf wasn't born yet, and Link has to fight his predecessor, the root of all evil as seen in the video.
greatest boss fight ever! but i little easy >_> actually beat the first half in less than 15 seconds.. still an amazing fight though! makes me sad that we're gonna have to wait many years for another 3d zelda T_T
Definitely a more fitting final sword fight than the one in Twilight Princess. But that's just my own opinion. All the fights posted here seem rather short, but the fight looks intense for those few minutes.
Also, the guy is a pretty honorable opponent too.
Really killed the climatic nature of the fight when you just did the same combo again and again and again as soon as the fight started. Total letdown. Next time try and make the fight a little more cinematic, it goes a long way towards making the video entertaining.
Thats how Gannon started thats fraking awesome to the max i always wanted to know how ganon started this game is epic to the max the origin of master sword and ganon :) best zelda ever :)
@slipknot234 I think about it this way, if this fight really was that hard(as you thought it might have been), how many people would be able to beat him in the boss rush thing with the Thunder Dragon?
>GANNON Was DEMISE - Before his Reincarnation in future generations!

so are you talking about OOT? there was nothing difficult about ganondorf in that game- just time your sword swing correctly.
or are you talking about windwaker? again, easy. all you have to do is pound away at him with your sword.
in general, i found SS to be A LOT more difficult than TP and WW.
