Dents? Don't see any. What you mean is probably the "hamon".

I beat the final boss without defensive offensive the first time, and later went back and tried dodging instead of parrying. Dodging is the way to go.
It's the FINAL boss...
He is supposed to be harder than anything before it. The curve is fine... in fact MGR gets it right better than most action games. The curve is supposed to go up.... not down at the end.
And even then he's not that hard especially since you can skip the debris. Once you learn his attack patterns and where to dodge it clicks.
I am, but if I can get through the rest of the game fine and then it becomes significantly harder I'd say something is wrong.

Not to mention there's like 4 checkpoints for all the stages of the boss fight, which wasn't the case in a lot of earlier action games.
I can easily beat him to 0.1% health even without dodging now, often without getting hit, after many, many hours of frustration, but my game apparently glitched and he's more or less immortal now. It seemingly became impossible to finish the game. So yeah, fuck that boss.

I caught this in the credits.
The name of the cover girls in the game. Goddamn @ some of them.

Probably just aliasing.
Looks like chips in the blade to me.
All Metal Gear games have the Metal Gear fights and then a human fight at the end.
Edit: I forgot about PW.

Way too big for that. The rest of the blade is fine as well.
I'm not sure, man. Maybe check the Steam Community forums? I haven't' seen a bug like that before.

It should have been belze then.
rival fight always comes before the final boss.
Well, not DMC3. At any rate, no great action game has screwed the final boss pooch more than Ninja Gaiden Black. I mean wow what happened lol

Here's my report from the final boss:
Played through the game on Hard first go through (I don't play action games so I kind of suck). Took roughly two hours to beat
. I had the 140% health upgrade and zero nano paste going into the fight, so that was fun I guess. The run I got it
got me down to 80% but I was just ripping
otherwise. It felt so good to slash that fucker after two hours of getting straight raped. I wouldn't say it was too hard because the game does give you several big bumps in difficulty on the way through, but anyone saying it's not a hard boss is just not from this world. It was super tough.

Armstrong
he
him
in dmc3 virgil was dante's rival and also the final boss, because there was no other enemy stronger than him.
In NGB, doku was ryu's rival, not murai.
He is hard just not unfairly so. The game gives you the tools to deal with him.
He was the first final boss in a long time to make me wonder if he could be defeated, and simultaneously make me feel that he could be beat with perseverance. That's a sign of superb design, when a boss is incredibly challenging but still feels fair. And when I beat him, it was so incredibly rewarding. Since then, I've replayed that battle many times, just for fun. It's so perfect in every way. So thorough, and so complete. And the spectacle while you're playing is simply jaw-dropping, my favorite moment being the times when
a wave of fire is erupting behind you as you fight, something straight out of the final battle in Revenge of the Sith

Just finished on hard today. 2 hrs yesterday and 2 today to beat Armstrong. You're not bad, yes the difficulty curve blows in that battle. I felt more lucky than accomplished after I won. Keep going, you'll figure it out.
VGs should be fun. If you're not having fun, put it down and come back. I did way better this morning than last night. Good luck.
Really, Hit and Away seems to work best (with the minor exception being when he starts healing himself). Mind you once you got the first Quick Time Zengeki wave done you're pretty good to go as those drop at least three Nanopastes a piece and if you can't do it with 340% then you really weren't trying hard enough.
It's just the fist phase that's an utter arse.

I used Type B the whole game because it didn't make sense for the camera to swap sticks to me. Was this a bad decision?
Edit: Oh, I think you said you ARE going to use B? Nevermind if that's the case.
LOL
Once again: O.Dodge I-frame abuse all his attacks. Zandatsu time? RUSH HIM.
Rinse and repeat. He isn't that bad.
Now if you want "Trainer TIEM" do no-damage against him as Sam. That's pure bullshit.
Me neither, and I couldn't find any mention on the internet so far. Essentially, the final QTE always fails instantly as soon as I try to enter blade mode. The first time I reached that part of the fight, the game froze. The second time, it worked but I botched a later phase of the QTE. Since then, it's bugged. Makes no fucking sense.
Not really, but I was considering switching to Type B because of the precision cuts that are needed in the boss fights. But re-training my brain for the new stick placement was just too hard.
If you're already used to Type B you should be fine.

Back up your save and try reinstalling the game? Or verifying the installation files?

Well, Angra was the true big bad. I just hated Angra as it was one of those "boss is so much bigger than you so hit his big-ass hands/feet that he stomps into the ground" fights. No real spectacle, either. I'm fine with Jeanne before Jubileus in Bayo, though, because the Jubileus fight is so damn cool.
I really disliked the final few levels of Ninja Gaiden. I just remember shitty platforming, mazes, and fucking ghost fish.

Gotcha. Ya I could not imagine using Type A now. It was so weird.

I put that armor on shortly before fighting Sundowner. It looks really badass, but if the nano paste isn't going to replenish I guess I can go ahead and switch to the

It Has to Be This Way (Platinum Mix)
^ Insanely awesome track for the final boss. It's what kept me trying for over two hours to beat the son of a bitch. All credit to this.

I was in same boat. Don't give up. It doesn't really help saying this, but the game gets way harder too.

This game is so good, now I want a Rising 2.
You have to parry every attack, not just the first.

i'm having a hard time vs monsoon after he reaches 40%. i'll beat him eventually but yeah, the whole "play on hard the first time" thing is really bad advice. i'm enjoying the difficulty but i'm pretty sure most people will just get frustrated with it
