The bossfight at the end of Sonic 2 is a bullshit difficulty curve, you should be able to get at least one ring

Fr without save states that boss is BS

I think every other boss in the game has some rings before it? Genuinely puzzling decision to exclude them, especially considering that it would still be quite challenging with rings.

I mean, if I was a final boss and I knew my rival was going to enter my lair and kick my ass, I wouldn't want them to be able to survive any extra hits.

At least 3 had the Sonic's invincibility flash.

Absolute bane of my childhood and I will never forgive Sonic Team for that nonsense. Should've at least dropped a 3 pack of rings before Metal Sonic.
