Am I the only one who is getting kind of tired of DSII bosses sort of relying on minions? Like, it was intense the first few times, but eventually I started wishing for a boss that was good enough and difficult enough on its own merit, instead of the game throwing waves of minions at me. The way I see it is if I'm fighting off a boss's little goons, I'm not paying attention to the boss and its design or all of the cool shit it can do.

MANY bosses fight alone, just near the mid-early it's mainly lackey/multi bosses.
