Disregarding lack of time, that is. Is there any particular mechanic you were not fond of? Was a game too difficult for you? Was it the overall enjoyment of the game?

Pic totally unrelated :]

Lords of the Fallen (remake) just felt a little too floaty to me. I might have ended up liking the game if I gave it more of a shot, but the very first boss was enough for me already. Maybe I'll get back to it at some point, but I doubt it

Did you find the short route? You don't have to fight anything.

Down the stairs, over the bridge, run past the ghosts. Jump off the ledge. Run forward a bit and drop down, and you're outside the boss room. There might be a ladder you have to kick down first. It's been a while.

    I hope this works because you just stopped me from going hollow if so

    edit: replying to the right person

    I don't know where's a good place to upload anonymous video for free, but here's the route I usually take: https://www.viddler.com/UFko4q . Looks like they added some AI slop to the caption, heh.

    It's a little sloppy because I haven't played in a few years, but thanks to steam's cloud saves I had this character ready to go.

    You take a little falling damage, but I think there's a ring for that. You don't have to fight anything so long as you run past the ghosts.
