A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game.

Name a game game: "...and then it ends with you fighting A GOD." (lemmy.world)

Trope or not, gods just end up being a common target for games about heroes escalating in power while fighting increasingly world-destroying consequences.

So, for each post, name a game and describe it, with the assumption being that every description automatically ends with the phrase:

"...and then it ends with you fighting a god."

Most of the Dark Souls are like that, ain't they? I'm too weak sauce to ever reach those levels, though. Black Myth Wukong has you starting Heaven's entire army, so I guess that qualifies too (I'm assuming you end up fighting a god at the end, but again, I'm not worthy)

Monkey canonically kicks all the gods' asses, but then loses to Buddha, who is not a god. That's because instead of using force, Buddha preys on Monkey's ego by giving him an unwinnable bet. And THEN Buddha drops a mountain on him.

How can you kill a god? What a grand and intoxicating innocence.

Hollow Knight is a game where you start out as a little bug discovering a bug's nest. Then you unlock some secrets, find the secret true final boss, and next thing you know, it ends with you fighting a god.
