At least I was able to beat it I suppose, after my first unsuccessful attempt I seriously considered just quitting for good and watching the ending on Youtube.
I very nearly did throw my controller for the first time in years, it was so infuriating.
That said, it's still a good game overall, as I can't deny I greatly enjoyed 95% of my time with it. Just would've been nice if it ended on a higher note gameplay wise. If the fight had ended with the second phase the game would go from an 8/10 to an 8.5/10 for me.

I actually think Xenoblade 2 is the last time I found a boss or sequence in a game this frustrating or unfair feeling; not just Malos but also the final fight against Jin was just horrible. Luckily that game also has a lot of redeeming qualities like its music, story, and most of its combat.
