Took a while off and tried the dragon again

I can't do it brehs :francis:
I can't do it :mjcry:

Even getting to the last form pretty consistently, the splitting fireballs and the big flame attack that fills the middle of the screen (many times leaving me nowhere to go) get me very time

The fireballs only split when you damage them , remove boomerang (I'm assuming that's what you're using cos I had the same issue) and use the peashooter instead. Then be patient, let the dragon spit at you, move to another platform and get a few shots in, rinse and repeat.

You'll know when the big flame is coming through the dragons' head animation prompt, either go to the top cloud or duck on the bottom. Repeat the process and the dragon becomes light work. Important you don't get greedy & you'll take it down.

Exactly... So if you die a bunch during that type of gameplay, it's "hard." Of course it's going to be easy once you memorize the patterns and develop the muscle memory to defeat the boss.
Have you played the game?
It’s just different ways to look at difficulty. Easily correctable deaths wouldn’t be the same as say getting stuck on a difficult to solve puzzle, or a boss fight that you can’t figure out. Cup head is very obvious. I’m just saying the difficulty is over rated in this game. That’s all.

It's a hard game through and through but there's levels on how hard each boss can be theres bosses less harder than other. I consider them "easy" because the pattern is easier to memorize.. some bosses require alot of finesse to defeat

Yes, I own the game and I've died a lot just like everyone else. It's hard but not impossible. If Cuphead was really that "obvious" then people would be breezing through the game with little to no deaths. Whether you think the difficulty is overrated, the game is still "difficult."

Is this the GOAT 20 dollar game?

Yeah. And I explained why.

Drop your death count breh. I dropped mine in the topic and dont see a lower number :youngsabo: Mine was something like 130.

And while you are right there is a lot of randomness in the boss fights. Enemies can appear in diff spots, or certain platforms appear randomly or not at all...ie the platforms during the Honey bee bytch fight. And the general random factor of which phase you will get, a lot of bosses throw diff looks at you and you can beat a lot of them without seeing certain phases, regardless of how fast you beat them, evena slow victory can omit certain sequences. But I do agree, once you figure out the patterns, the fights are mostly easy.

My death count was at 50 I believe the last time I played. I took a screen shot. I’ll check later
