For me that's easily Dark Souls.
The very first one, that is. I was at my buddy's place and he showed me the game, I had never given it a chance. And he couldn't beat the Taurus Demon. But seeing the game, seeing him try really made me want to try it at home as well.
And after a few tries I beat him and I was so happy because the game tends to look down on you, hard to explain but basically it can destroy your self confidence and make you think you can't beat this game. Plus I got to explore brand new areas.
Then came Capra Demon, what a fucking asshole. Don't know about you guys but as soon as boss fight starts in these games my heart automatically starts beating way too fast, maybe it's the music that does it but man....the tension is real. And each time this fuckboy killed me because of a horribly narrow area, annoying demon dogs and just barely space to move around, my confidence went lower and lower, but not giving up. Then when I finally offed that POS....the happiness was insane.
And last but not least.....and absolutely the one where my excitement went through the roof as soon as I removed that little last bit of health was Ornstein & Smaug. Yes I kinda went the "easy" way with that fight because I was using fireballs and didn't had to get too close most of the time but that's the infamous boss everyone was talking about. When I finally offed them, I jumped up from the couch and scream "hell fucking yeah" and God knows what else and I think I probably did some kind of victory dance too.
No other games really can give me this feeling of happiness, excitement, relief after having killed a boss. I can't think of many.
Now yours!
I wish I could mention a few Sekiro bosses too, but truth is, I gave up on that way too early. It seems nowadays I just don't have the patience anymore for that real challenge, I often notice how worked up and mad I get when things just don't work well, when the challenge is too great.
