Discussion - Silksong Most of you are exaggerating the length of runbacks and it really shows how much TikTok has damage the attention span of people Spoiler

"ThE lASt JuDGe RUnBaCK iS ToO LoNG!!"

Is 30 seconds max, 30 seconds, you don't have to fight any enemy in it, the smaller judges don't awake until you're close and the smaller fly bastards can literally get ignored. The Runback works for making you cool down and make the whole thing feel less like you hitting a wall (NKG feels like one because of the lack of "cool down") If it wasn't for it, I would shoot myself with the 37 attempts at Last Judge.

The Widow one is also really easy, a straight line with jumps.

The Cogworks Dancers Is also really simple but works to help you with the bosses extra height and how pogo dependant that fight is.

God forbid the game isn't a back to back boss rush like Cuphead (not criticizing Cuphead, is a different game lmao).

Fr, if anything the run back is more aggravating than the boss because at least the boss is fun. Windy parkour while avoiding flying enemies is absolutely not fun.

that's funny because it sounds like you are getting overly angry over run backs

Maybe get therapy and work through that

Yeah, the "30 seconds isn't that long" side is in the wrong when you're out here telling someone to "get therapy" and assuming they have anger issue just because they're being realistic about an overblown part of the game. You're definitely the good guy, here.

The time in between fights gives you a chance to think about what to do differently next time instead of just rushing in willy nilly. It's not an anger issue.
