Great philosophers don’t get kissed, silly. (Actually Nietzsche himself likely said something like that.)

Now I’m even more scared

Where flame sword?

Yep, I’ve never had major problems with platforming on HK. I do have some NES platformer background, but the bosses are beating me up countless times. Same happened with Metroid Dread, didn’t have big issues with previous Metroids but Dread bosses had become insanely difficult compared to the former games. I guess there’s nowadays some soulslike crossover trend happening on metroidvanias causing this melee difficulty ramp-up. I haven’t played souls games so it has came as a shock for me.

Anyway, I have found workarounds in HK. Whenever I get stuck on some boss I keep exploring the map further and find powerups which then make the fighting difficulty seem more balanced again. Luckily HK allows really versatile nonlinear progression.

The habit of compressing commercials super loud comes from the fact that many of them also have to fit radios where it is important for the brainwash being clearly heard on weak signals too.

Lol, that has some pre-Switch Nintendo naming energy

I’ve seen you everywhere, or maybe it’s just my Metroid fanboy eyes picking up…

Yeah, it’s more like reversed:

Left: Zelda BotW

Right: Zelda TP

My roomba is actually named goomba. It collides from wall to wall and dies if I jump on it.

Super and Echoes might be my favourites as well. Also shoutout to Fusion and Zero Mission. They were good too, although they owe so much to Super.
