Retry OR Continue on Loewe?
Just got to the big match with Loewe on Nightmare. When I die, I get the usual Retry and Main Menu options, but a third Continue option is also present. I thought maybe Continue would skip the fight because a cutscene duel happens right after anyway and I clicked it out of curiosity, but it seems to behave identically to Retry.

What's going on here? I've had Retry Offset turned off all game, but does one of those options force it? If so, I'm going to have to redo that fight to get it for realsies -- I didn't notice anything hitting noticeably softer but I want to do it clean.

If I remember correctly, it reduces the difficulty. Loewe is THE hardest boss in the game just like in FC, but unlike in that game you need to beat him. So they gave you a reduce the difficulty option. The same option is also there for a certain boss in 3rd. He is beateble without grinding but you need to bring your A-Game to beat him on nighmare. So its up to you really. Do you wanna reduce the difficulty or fight him to test your skills. I believe the difficulty will only be reduced for him, so don't worry about making the rest of the game too easy.

If that's what it does, calling it "continue" seems exceptionally unclear -- especially since the offset already exists elsewhere. IMO "continue" signals that you're allowed to lose the fight, not that it nerfs it behind your back.

Anyway, you now know what it does, stop complaining and be grateful that they give you an option in case the player is not good enough. Don't go Dragon on us.

I'm...not doing that? That's a legit UI issue.

I just went back and downed him again without it, so meh. He was doing slightly more damage than the first kill (which may just have been failing to get Zodiac up sooner) but still honestly not as bad as the prologue or Divine Penguin.

Nothing beats the divine penguin, or should I say Jimmy, the true super boss of the game.

"Continue" is actually supposed to let you continue on without winning the fight, per the PSP and PS3 versions. It's a bug that has never been fixed. I'm really sorry for it. I'll try to keep it in mind next time I can touch the game.

Oh so that what it does. Thanks for the correction.

Every single criticism I make about any game is also a legitimate issue. So if you are criticizing legitimate issues, then you are definitely "Going Dragon," which is a great thing IMO.

this bug is still present in 2024, if you can fix it
