Have you ever disliked a video game boss so much that you joined or created a group just to complain about it? Many players who faced Savage Beastfly in Hollow Knight: Silksong felt that way – they were so frustrated they gave up playing.
If you played the sequel to the highly acclaimed Hollow Knight, then you’ll understand why.
The subreddit r/f*cksavagebeastfly is a community for players who found a particular optional boss frustratingly difficult. With around 29,000 visitors and 1,600 active contributors each week, it’s clear many players share this frustration.
What’s even funnier is that one of the subreddit rules read as follows:
The subreddit r/f*cksavagebeastfly is dedicated to strongly opposing Savage Beastfly. Users who express any support for, or even neutrality towards, Savage Beastfly will be permanently banned. The community is committed to rejecting what they see as pro-Beastfly misinformation.
It’s fair to say that people who defend the company don’t really belong in this community. It’s meant for those who are critical of it.

Why Do Players Hate the Savage Beastfly?
There are a couple of reasons why a lot of players hate the Savage Beastly.
Okay, so this boss really throws a lot of random stuff at you – it’s constantly charging and slamming the ground, which keeps you on your toes. And honestly, its hit box is massive! Fighting it in a tight space makes dodging all that even harder. It’s a tough fight for sure!
To top it off, it also creates extra enemies, making the battle even more frustrating.
That’s just for the initial battle, but the rematch is even more frustrating! It’s like facing the same irritating boss again, except this time you’re in the Far Fields, and the floor actually becomes lava!

It’s easy to see why people dislike this boss so much. Many online agree it’s the worst boss in the game, and some even consider it one of the worst in video game history.
The subreddit isn’t only for venting about the boss, though. It also provides helpful advice to players struggling with the Savage Beastfly, offering strategies to finally defeat it. If you’ve been stuck on this optional boss for a long time, the community might have the answers you need.
