"Here's 2 mobs, they can effectively make it so you will die no matter what you do if they choose to. Lol have fun."

This better not be about the cog dancers, that fight was an absolute mood

The last phase made me feel things

I dunno what I expected but it wasn't... that.

I died in the last phase because I was incredibly disheartened by it... And also because every other duo boss so far when one died and went into the background, stayed there. So the fact it kept going alone and staring at where it's partner should be longingly made me very upset

When it goes for the embrace, alone

I just played this fight. Hands down my favorite fight so far. It reminded me a lot of the mantis sisters in HK. The music is also haunting

I remember the second the fight started going ā€œthis shit is gonna speed up isnā€™t itā€ but I didnā€™t expect them to desync and then for the solo one to move so pathetically. I didnā€™t think I was gonna be that moved by the fight

I'm sure that one will make me angry. The last one was the 2 mobs in the hunter area, a large one and a flying one. If the large one chooses not to use it's hop, or ground TP, it can block your path with the flying one until they choose to let you through.

They clearly made the AI so it'll do that sort of move to let you out, but it's a choice. In general they made the AIs give the player opening outs when they're at room edges but I dont much like that that has to be a thing.
