The Summit / Mara is a crap boss

[Sokurah]

I mean it was very disappointing. I still have the last lvl to go but Mara was a crap boss.

She is not even hard. And in addition she is so slow paced and tedious its a huge contrast to the rest of the game.

One hit resetting you is kinda fun in the rest of the game because you can keep your motion and can dive right back into the fight after a hit and try again.

I absolutely dont get the design of this boss.

By now you've done the final boss and have learned
But yeah all the bosses are really good and go over everything you learn in their area
Tom has high grappling and wallrunning to test you on the key game mechanics that you need to have down
Hel has arced projectiles like the walker things and uses the sword like the sword guys the two new enemies from the City area
Maras area introduces terrifying enemies and you begin to learn the truth, but she doesnt use any of the systems from them, none of the abominations have anything to do with mara and I was kinda hoping she would have like a bunch of weird implants and look like broken not even human anymore. also all the boss deaths are underwhelming

[Sokurah]

yes i found all bosses underwhelming as well. Whats good about the game are the lvls.

Boy the last lvl is taking the pis* but i made it.
The sections with the platforms and the red balls almost made me quit tbh.

Felt too much like rng or better my brain actually could not handle it.
Needed to use the time freeze more often than i would have liked to.

Also some sections where you bounce of the walls felt very unresponsive.

Will come back some day to get better at some lvls i liked most, maybe do hardcore as well.

Hardcore will be a fun treat if you thought the normal mode was too easy, also maybe look up some tip videos on the game for like 10-20 minutes and you'll learn some things that might make the entire game much more enjoyable

I usually try to make my own style and dont look things up. I only do that when i'm really stuck.

I need to say i only unsed my skills very rarely and wanted to find the way to beat every room without them. Only when i was really stuck i used the blink move most of the time for one hard last enemie.

Never really used the other skills.

Also i tried to use the freeze move as rare as possible.

This and the fact i really sucked at two platform sections made the game a bit longer for me than it could have been.

Oh jeez even Im not ready for that on Hardcore, but yeah I legit was like WHY MUST YOU BE LIKE THIS GAME when doing the red ball part, than after about 5minutes and 33489502345 deaths, I figured out that there is a pattern

I didnt saw the pattern. XD I kinda was not even blaming the game. I was just like. "okay your brain is just not really able to handle these kind of information"

The fact that the pattern does not reset when you die doesnt make it easier. Also sometimes there are a tons of balls in your way and next try like almost none.

I tried to make it in a fast rush for long which was a mistake too. Keep it slow and use the time freeze is the best thing to do i guess.

I agree, it felt super slow paced and I was just waiting for the boss meter to replenish or for adam to be the true final boss fight

I think the telegraphs are too slow, you have so much time to see them. They could have sped up all her attacks and it would still be fair, and give you more of a rush.
