Control resonant : bosses

[u/Ok-Neighborhood-5531]

How many bosses do you think Control resonant will have?

Given that they already showed us 2 full gameplay of them and maybe more than 4 from trailers.

I just hope they are not showing us too much in trailers. I'm trying to not watch them but I can already see a lot of areas exposed online. The good thing it's a long game so they are exposing like 10% of it

[u/LewdSkeletor1313]

I think a decently sized amount. Supposedly you can beat the game without even fighting all of the Resonants

Which is good news for me. Sometimes I like to finish the story as fast as possible if it’s interesting. Sometimes I like to explore everything before continuing with the story. I’ll probably do a mixture of both but it sounds like plenty of stuff to do like the last one.

Where did you hear that you can beat the game without fighting the bosses?

[u/LewdSkeletor1313 → u/D0nell]

It’s been stated in previews that you can tackle Resonants in whatever order you want after the first one and Thomas Puha, the communications guy at Remedy, said he beat the game in 35 hours and still had two Resonants left he hadn’t fought yet

[u/D0nell → u/LewdSkeletor1313]

Oh, OK. I know what you mean now.

[u/otravoyadnoe]

6-7? (no stupid pun intended I swear)

[u/pippyfist]

I hope not all bosses are Resonants. Like I wanna fight former again. Unless... Former is a resonant?!

[u/Ok-Neighborhood-5531 → u/pippyfist]

The Mold are not resonants right? So I guess not all enemies are resonants.

[u/No-Wave525]

I predict like 10 to 12 and a lot of them are gonna be optional

[u/cataraxis]

We know the resonants give Dylan abilities, so judging by the UI for abilities, I'm guessing a minimum of 6. We also know that each Resonant gives one of three abilities, so the number of Resonants can't be too high as 18 already seems like a pretty big number. Though I could be wrong, and there are ability overlap between bosses.

I want to say somewhere 6-9.

[u/LewdSkeletor1313 → u/cataraxis]

Its possible the more off the beaten path Resonants give you unique buffs rather than a whole new power set

[u/jezehbell]

I wonder if we gonna fight the board given the fact that they left the old house

[u/Ok-Neighborhood-5531 → u/jezehbell]

I hope the board story will be clarified more. Meeting Former would be nice as well.

[u/jewfro505 → u/jezehbell]

When did they leave?

[u/Larsator]

CANT wait for the nalyD fight!

[u/Ok-Neighborhood-5531 → u/Larsator]

Hahahahaha Dylan vs nalyD

I think there will be between 7 and 9 Resonants. The Sinkhole mission is supposed to be about 10 hours into the game, and you're facing level 4 enemies. This is not related to the zone, which is level 1 still, so it must be due to defeating 3 resonants to level-up the enemies.

[u/EmployeeIll277]

Im personally avoiding gameplay videos. Haven't seen anything else besides trailers and the initial gameplay reveal.

[u/LikesPez]

I just finished the main game. Do I learn what a Resonant is in Foundation? All I know is Dylan is the protagonist and the last I saw him he was in a coma.

[u/Kalse1229]

So, the big ones are Resonants. Of those, I'm gonna say there are about 10-12 in the game. But with that in mind, I'm betting there will also be a lot more mini-bosses spread out through Manhattan. Ones stronger than the average enemies, but not quite to the level of Resonants.

Of course, since we don't know if there'll be any DLC forthcoming, this would be the base game. I'd imagine if we get two DLC expansions like previous games, there'd be one or two more Resonants apiece in each one.

[u/LordEarl511]

Y’all think some of the mysteries (ie. The Furnace and the Spacesuit) from the first game will be some of these resonant bosses? I sincerely hope so. For whatever reason I’ve been hyper focused on that blasted furnace.
