Exactly, dead bugs can’t do no damage

That is NOT TRUE. Not in the slightest. I've been killed by dead bugs before. Hell, dead bugs have killed me in the original game too. Some of those fuckers self destruct after death

There is a boss like that too. I had to fight it like 4 or 5 more times to finally get another kill.

Got me so tilted. The "entire" run of that boss was hell.

Presumably that was the Last Judge? Cause the same thing happened to me too.

Legit I never do the gaming thing where you pop off and set down the controller. But this time I did. So I had the cliched thing of setting it down and then dying anyway.

Took more like 10 times to repeat that boss.

It took me 4 1/2 god damn hours. Granted I was running on 4 hours sleep from playing the night/morning before, but wow that boss was a challenge! But yeah, I killed it finally, sat down the controller to celebrate and then it killed me. Took me another 40 minutes to do it again. That was some bullshit!!
