It's one thing to fight a giant monster with an avatar on a 2d monitor, it's another when you're directly looking into the face of said monster and have to fight it up close and personal, all the meanwhile knowing that a slip up means you're dead.
It doesn't matter no one likes to die and does everything they can to avoid it. You may say you're looking at the face of a monster but not every boss character is a monster. You may come upon a very humanoid boss character whose abilities you don't know.

Say you suddenly come upon a boss wizard type human. What do you do? What spells is he most likely to use? What spells may control your very ability to parry/dodge/move? What if suddenly he casts a spell that somehow negates your abilities?

It's stuff like that I'd be worried to run into.
