7 Ludicrous Summons That Were Pure Overkill: Commenter Edition

Fighting enemies is hard and sometimes you get blood on your coat, so it makes total sense to get someone else to do the fighting for you. That’s where summons come in: special powerful attacks that call in an ally to lay the smack down on your behalf, some of which are so spectacularly OP that frankly, you may as well let them do the rest of the game for you. We've spoken about this before on the channel, but the commenters had some favourites of their own. Behold!

Important fact: Alecto isn't Tishe's dad, it's her mother. And I loved that fight!

[MinniMaster]

Persona 5 is likely the only game where you can say you summoned the Devil himself to save Christmas

[bellarmire]

It’s less of a traditional summon, but I love how in Majora’s Mask the moon crashing into Termina is a serious apocalyptic event, and then in Hyrule Warriors slamming the moon into your enemies is a super normal thing that you do all the time.

[enlongjones]

The best thing about Ark is, if your party has an HP Regen effect active, it will continue to apply during the ludicrously long attack animation, likely causing your party to be fully healed by the time it’s over. This makes Ark a powerful attacking spell, *and* the best healing spell in the game.

For context on Satanael blocking damage: that was Almighty damage, which is strong enough to essentially erase someone from existence and even ignores an item that bends the laws of the universe to make you immune to all damage.

[Zivillyn]

My favorite thing about the scene where you summon Satanael to kill Yaldaboath is that immediately after shooting off a Sinful Shell, Satanael strikes the "Sexy cowgirl who just shot her revolver" pose. Dude has the hips for it and HE IS WORKING IT.

[kyokonightstorm]

Satanael isn't technically the one who heals the party or protects them from the enemy's attack, that would be the will of the people. That same will is what supercharges Joker's persona to become this version of Satanael. In New Game+, you can fuse Satanael and use him in battles like a regular persona, but in that form he is tiny, about the size of the big version's head. He's still a large persona, but nowhere near what he is in the final battle against the god of control.

But yes, after fighting through the rest of the game, the vindication of making that shot is so amazing.

Golden Sun was my childhood and what got me into loving jrpg's. What an amazing series, filled with plenty of other over-the-top summons.

[droooooooooooooooooooooooooooo]

I didn't use her a lot in my Elden Ring playthrough, but hey, Tiche their own.

[oldharlock]

Honestly, the P5 boss fight and it's conclusion are probably my favorite gaming moment of the last generation. The battle, the build up, the music, the fn badass "Pillage him, SATANAEL!" command to shoot god in the face point blank. Just perfect.👌💚

[angelohowardii]

Can we all just take a moment to acknowledge how banging the goldensun soundtrack is

[emeraldhoarder]

Probably the best part about Satanael is that he is the awakened form of your starting persona Arsene, who not only doesn't level up along with you like the rest of your party, also stops getting moves at level 7ish.

[Schemingmatthis]

"Fly all the way across the galaxy into the sun" I can already feel Jane's inner physicist seething

[vunature]

Andy: The miracle of creation. That looks like it really hurt.

Women everywhere: You have no idea.

[thechevyferrari]

Aw man, I’m still thinking about the Like a Dragon summons

Edit: AHH GOOD, THEY INCLUDED ANOTHER ONE! And yeah, Daigo’s summon is genuinely epic.

[Lady_Sanctuary]

Golden Sun was my intro to Summons and I loved the sheer over the topness of all of them!

[johnoneil]

Don´t forget that you then get to steer Jubileus past all the planets in the solar system before slamming her into the sun. Gods, I love that franchise so much.

[LivingGuy]

5:53 I'm glad to see Golden Sun is getting some recognition, it's one of my favorite childhood games

[tomhapje]

So glad to see Golden Sun in one of these. One of my favourite games ever.

[TheDriveByLife]

I love whenever the Golden Sun series pops up on your lists. Great games
