How can you fix a boss that players think is too slow? It's a tricky game design problem. Slow bosses have to BE slow while fighting the FEELING of slowness. But that feeling can be caused by lots of subtle issues. Different game genres can have this happen in completely different ways, and the way designers fix the problem can be completely different depending on what exactly is causing the fight to lag. Let's talk about how to fix a slow boss fight!
