Some eye-hand bosses could make sense as a reference to the hamsa.
For example, Eyerok is literally a guardian of a burial tomb, if we interpret pyramids in Mario to have been built for the same purpose as real life.
Other hand-eye bosses are similarly guardians of some sort of temple, tomb, or sacred place. Evil is extremely interpretational - one could say it's -in the eye of the beholder. - Thus, in the case of these guardian types of eye-hands, the player is the 'evil' that is being warded off.

I cannot describe to you how good of a sleep aid these are I've watched almost every unravelled and bdg video like 100 times because they just knock me out. not cause they're boring but because they have an amazing ability to just be reliable calming content that I can fall asleep to

The best part about this is how much creative freedom Polygon gives BDG, because you can just feel how his soul and m e t a p h y s i c a l e s s e n c e really just seep through into the video. It-s really just a video game focused BDG video with a fresh Polygon paint job.

Maybe the reason Brian (and I tbh) thought Bongo Bongo had eyes on his hands is bc his head is just one massive eye. Personally i think i just put the eyes on his hands when i forgot he had a body and wasn't just a pair of evil bongo playing hands

okay, the callypso arc may be a bit of filler, but you gotta admit it never hurts to get a hermes cameo. also, I'd argue the lotus are even worse, because they feel actively detrimental to the plot by getting rid of several of odyseuss' men.

this dude looks and sounds like a crackhead that found a genie lamp and wished to go back 7 years for a second chance but messed it up in an equivalent way by becoming a weeb.
THERE'S TWO MORE WISHES

in all honesty I'm guessing some folks got really inspired by Vecna always being the big bad in dnd and either conciously or unconciously put undead hand eye man in games

I like imagining a version of this as a monologue in a play where it ends with Brian getting punched in the throat. That's how you know you've reached god-tier wordplay.

I can't believe he did Shadow of the Colossus dirty like that. Those spots only glow because you have a frigging magic sword guiding you to all their natural weak points!

I'll admit, when I heard the words -Eye-, -Hand-, -Boss-, and -Monster- all in the same sentence, my brain immediately went to Vecna from DND

I think it may have something to do with the fact that the eye and the hand are the absolute bare minimum needed to interact with the world

I think the Hamsa still fits because most of these eye-hand bosses are usually guardians of the dungeon or temple they reside in

I miss BDG making regular good and funny content. Just can't live with one middling music video every couple of months.

Hmm, I never liked hand-eye bosses. They feel formulaic, boring, and often janky (poorly coded boss behavior.
