Just beat Fire Emblem Awakening for the first time in awhile and as much as I love the game, it is kind of continually amazing how lame the final boss fight is. I think you would have to be actively trying not to beat Grima within two turns with how it's just a straight line to them with no enemies spawning directly in your way.

Necron in Final Fantasy IX. I know he was supposed to be a tribute to the surprise final boss trope in the series like Cloud of Darkness or Zeromus, but those bosses at least had buildups in the story. Necron came out of nowhere. It was kind of a dumb fight, too.

I liked the ending of Final Fantasy X from a character development standpoint, but why did Yu Yevon have to look like a big boring ass bug? The monster Jecht as the final encounter would have felt way more suitable. Switch those two fights around, and then it’s really epic.

I was playing as the Predator in the final boss battle in Aliens vs Predator 2. The boss was in an exosuit but I was invisible. I shot him in the head with a spear gun and I won.

the original Borderlands 1 not the remaster or whatever.
You go through all this build up and hearing all the stories of this ancient civilization and all of that and thinking okay we have spent this entire game getting all these fantastic guns and thinking you are gonna get this spectacle of an all out war with all types of crazy weapons you can loot off the final boss.
Only to be met with a single stationary monster who poses absoloutley no threat other than being a bullet sponge and drops jack and shit for loot.

Arkham Asylum - Such a great, historic game ... but the mutated Joker boss-battle was lame
Godzilla - Save the Earth AND Godzilla - Unleashed: Space-Godzilla in both games! Really? Space-Godzilla is not really one of the best kaijus and they use him as the main baddie twice! (Save the Earth is great, though!)
James Bond - Everything or Nothing - Great game ... but there was no challange in beating Dafoe. Just one rocket and it it´s over.

I love how Marcus even refers to it in Borderlands 2 as "tentacles and disappointment"

Fable 2 - No boss fight just shoot the monologuing bad guy in the stomach. Or don’t and your teammate does.

Honestly, it's the Northern Crater and Sephiroth, for me.
Northern Crater is just bland. Not much else to say about that. I mean, just compare it to Ultimecia's Castle or Memoria, etc.
I know most people love the Sephiroth battle, but I personally always hated it. For one, he's way too easy. FFVII is pretty easy now that I'm older, but I struggled with the game when I was young. That is, except for Sephiroth. But the worst thing about the battle is the supernova attack. A five-minute attack that he spams, AND it can't even kill you. Wtf!
To top it all off, FFVII's ending sucked. Wow!
I love FFVII, but disc 3 sucked (I think disc 3 starts at Northern Crater).

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided - you don’t even realize you’re facing the final boss and then the game just ends on a flat cliffhanger.

The monster Jecht as the final encounter would have felt way more suitable. Switch those two fights around, and then it’s really epic. Agreed. Tho a part of me would been pissed off if after I did that hard ass Jecht fight and then Yu Yevon grinds me into a paste and I have to do that whole shit over again Tho obviously at this point after countless playthroughs the final bosses are the Dark Aeons. I'm not counting Penance because I refuse to fight it for an hour. Yojimbo will do that job each and every time

The Yu Yevon fight was meant purely as a story fight and I think it was impossible to outright lose unless you went out of your way to tank yourself.

Surprised I'm the first to say this Mass Effect 3. Fable 2 - No boss fight just shoot the monologuing bad guy in the stomach. Or don’t and your teammate does. I honestly love that ending... it's the same as a bunch of tropes Fable 2 turns on it's head... it's the "Why don't you just shoot him?" Trope...

Unless you want to call the Scarecrow segments fights I guess. Admittedly it's been a while since I played it, but I thought the Titan Ivy fight was good.

Unless you want to call the Scarecrow segments fights I guess. It's a problem across like all of hte Arkham games too... I think the Non-Canon Origins had the best boss fights out of all of them...

You have permanent Auto-Life for the Yu Yevon fight, I don't see how it's possible to even lose deliberately.

Goo Man Chu from Croc 2: Run to the opposite side of the boss room and hit the switch to drain him. That's it.
