![]() That is a sentence I’d never see myself write, but it’s boss fights like that that will make No More Heroes stand out from the crowd. You have one on one sword fights that are mainly focused on perfect dodges and striking at the perfect time, while others are more unique, like a boss fight set in a batting cage where the majority of your damage is dealt by knocking leather clad gimps back towards the boss.
