The boss runbacks in this game are just stupid. Especially the last boss.
What kind of design is this? Up an elevator, up 2 ladders, avoid enemies, run and jump for 30 seconds.... Wtf...

did not see that one but agree that running from firesite to boss was no fun even in DS1
now designers put respawns near bosses

Not to mention there's a perfect room just before him for a rest point. Like it was designed to have said rest point and they just took it out for some reason.

I've finished the game and I am apparently missing 5 or so witch stones, I wonder if they were meant to be added before most bosses but whatever reason they're not, because some stones are stupidly far from bosses (or forest area having 0 stones closest being the sewer for example).

Yeah I noticed I'm missing a few as well and I've uncovered the entire map and explored thoroughly, had the same thought.

Oh come on, the last boss is like 30 seconds run. It's ok to have some distance from respawn to boss, gives you time to ponder on your mistakes.

30 seconds? You have no awareness of time huh? 30 seconds would be fine, its more like 2 minutes.

Agreed. The very least they could have done is always call elevator to your floor (something Catlevania devs figured back in 1990s).

On top of that, the boss can kill you in a matter of seconds because he has no delay between his attacks to give any type of breathing room. So when you run back and then get juggled by his 3 part combo that he decided to do back to back, it really gets the juices going having to execute this run back with the one imp that aggros from UNDERGROUND any time you try to activate the elevator or lever to bring it down. I resorted to just pulling the lever and then hitting the stone again, then hopping onto the elevator because i was tired of killing this IMP and waiting for it's obnoxiously long explosion on death.

Just did. It's 34 seconds, from witchstone to jump over second stair pit, that includes sending elevator back down.

You do realize there's an elevator that takes you to upper courthouse and you don't have to fight all the trash mobs on your way, right?
