I personally LOVE it when I discover a new monster thats Colossal in size! Monster such as...

The Thunderbird in Alahundra

The Dread Scorpion from Alahundra as well

Then theres the Titan from Thanatos but I dont have an image of him :wink:

The point of this thread is simply, do you want to see more big baddies like those two in MSC? Big monsters can be epic if executed correctly. POLL TIME!

Making him a tougher monster would be nice. Something that big should have some mean n green characteristics.

I would definitely like to see more large monsters. Specifically, I want someone to create a Phoenix that is roughly the size of the Thunderbird. Scaled down versions of monsters like the Titan would make good Golems or other tough, non boss monsters.

With that said, huge monsters have a tendency to lend themselves to uncreative scripts. If I had the choice between a smaller enemy with a unique attack pattern or a large enemy that just smashes I would choose the former hands down.

In my opinion, yes. But i got a feeling that the larger they are, the easier they get to die! :p
Unless they are those retarded Juggernauts from shad_palace >_>

I'm really looking forward now for some badass giant boss, something of the kind: DRAGONS! Err yeah... if these are ever going to come, it might take a while >_<

That game sucked, I couldn't find my way to the second boss and I don't find wasting 30 minutes riding around fun. Worst $20 I ever spent.

Worst of all the EBgames guy told me it was "Like Diablo2" That fucker

I know you had to use your sword but it's annoying when you have to navigate past all the mountains it goes through. >.>
And you get teleported back to the temple area and have to start your trek to another boss. Talk about repetitive.....

But once you get to the boss fight, it gets epic.

Sure, something really special might be a boss that you fight into it's inside and perform some kind of puzzle to shut it down or reach it's heart or engine and destroy that. (Not a quake 2/tombraider switch game where you find the door that opened across the map)

But I hate bird's attack patterns here, it just comes off as annoying as possible, no offense.

I'd like to see some dragons, too.

Also, maybe a Sea Monster, MAP IDEA INCOMING, like at the end there is a boss fight, where you're on an island and a Sea Monster is on the shore.

Yeah, fighting a Kraken would be awesome. You raid this island for a summoner allied with Lor Malgoriand and kill him, only to find that you weren't quite quick enough to stop his ritual. At which point you have to go fire arrows at a massive octopus.

I LIKE IT.

Well big bosses like that would be very awesome, but to have enough space and to set it up properly, you'd probably have to contain it in its own map.

In regards to a giant kraken monster -
I would love to see that on ocean crossing or on a map like ocean crossing. It could be set up quite nicely to involve teamwork. Since it's a boat it would be near impossible to melee the creature. Perhaps archers could damage it to the point where it collapsed for a few moments onto the ship, leaving it vulnerable to melee attacks..
