    God vs God would be anti-climatic scene. . . ?

    Honestly I can picture asuras wrath type scenes with that- most epic and insane offerings in the game potentially. Maybe show WoW how to poke a planet.



    Personally not in love with Zenos but god fueled hero vs god fueled hero could be absolutely insane on the scene scale. May be one of those fights that distorts and destroys reality, and only because (what I assume will happen) joining the two primals are you able to walk it back (and the power it took to join them being why you're not perma super sayian 9000 afterwards, since you used it to set the world back into motion).

    That sort of battle has been done to death though. It's too cliche at this point. Shadowbringers showed how to make villains interesting. It's anti-climactic in the sense that it's a step down in motives after Elidibus and Emet-Selch. It is not particularly climactic to fight a boss that has really not that much lore behind him. I get that Zenos is almost a force-of-nature type of boss at this point, but Zodiark serves that role far better, given that it has an interesting backstory behind it. Zenos on the other hand is the result of Garlean engineering but that's about it. Barely any lore behind why Zenos is so strong, as compared to Zodiark, which over the story we gradually got to learn far, far more than the initial point.

    Fandaniel would be an interesting final boss if there's a twist behind him, so I'm hoping for that.

    I wasn't really focusing on the Zenos part- I'm with you that it would be nice if something was a twist at the end. However I still think Asura Wrath like scale ending would be loads of fun, specially given this is the finale of the Ascian saga. I mean ShB kind of ends that way, just not super massive scale .. rather it's just massive scale lol.

    Dirge of Cerberus Chaos VS Omega.
