Throwing humility out the window, I'm pretty damn good at games. I've played through the entirety of the Souls series, with Demon's Souls and Bloodborne included, and done challenge runs such as BL7/SL1 and Broken Straight Sword Only. I've beaten Wolfenstein, both the New Order and the Old Blood, on the permadeath difficulty (planning to do the same with The New Collosus). I've beaten Horizon Zero Dawn on Ultra Hard. Sadly, LASO runs allude me as I don't have a reliable team, and the only one I've even started was ODST. Even then, Oni Alpha Site is practically unbeatable. But this game called Cuphead opened a can of whupass I didn't even know I was keeping on the shelf. I keep on telling myself that I'm just not used to 2D plat forming games, or that World 2 is my Achilles Heel as Curse-Rotted Greatwood was in DS3. Maybe that bullethell isn't my thing, although I've beaten Enter The Gungeon and Furi. But I know that I'm lying. This game is, at least for me, impossible. I've died 457 times thus far with a good 10 hours in the game and I'm still only a quarter of the way through Isle 2. I managed to somehow beat Djimmi after 2 hours of trial and error, locked in a steaming hot room, covered in sweat, listening to the Prog Rock Spotify playlist. But I've hit a huge concrete wall in my progression. Beppi is just too hard to keep up with. The only fire modes I have this far are Peashooter, Roundabout, and Lobber, but I really need Spread to kill this demented asswipe clown. The animals are really stressful to deal with, and I keep on getting trapped under the horses. Baroness Von Bon Bon... Fuсk this bitch. The candy corn in particular is horrifically difficult, and everything gets worse in Phase Three, when you have to deal with the miniboss, gumdrop warriors, and the Baroness shooting cotton candy at you. If I even get past this and fight the Baroness herself I'm already at one health. Plus, when you get her down to Phase 4, her head is so difficult to dodge consistency and her peppermint is impossible to parry off of. Have I also mentioned, at least for me, SHE'S IMPOSSIBLE TO DAMAGE IN PHASE 4? I DO THE KAMEOMEO WAVE SUPER ON HER AND THE BAR DOESN'T BUDGE. Grim Matchstick is somehow, for me, the easiest of them to deal with. His first two phases are a cakewalk, especially when using Lobber. It's just that last phase that gets me. I always get caught too close to the dragons and the fireballs always split and evaporate my health bar. So, yeah. I'm stuck. Bon Bon is a сunt, Beppi can suck my dick, and Grim Matchstick is annoying af. Finna kill myself
