At this point, I'm suspecting that shit like this is silktranny falseflagging.
This miniboss is piss-easy, and that's why it fucking sucks as a game design element.
I beat him in two tries with zero struggle, and then proceeded to the Hunter's March, because the entire setpiece looked just like the False Knight and the entrance to the City of Tears in the original, aka where you go to progress the story.
I then quit the game because platforming in Hunter's March with zero unlocks is dogshit.
The troon dev cope of "just turn around, lmao" is literally designed with casuals in mind, you only follow the "intended" route if you suck so much, you can't even beat the Skull Ant, so you go elsewhere, but if you're actually good at playing this slop game, you get punished.
All the clowns defending this poorly-designed mess are literally just casual shitters who are not good enough to run into this game's issues.
