Alrighty, frog boss is down now. 1 boss to go before the final boss. Really plowing through this. Honestly, if you upgrade your attack strength fully in the very beginning, the game is kinda a cakewalk, even when using the umbrella.

Alrighty. Urn Witch is down. 2 more bosses (not withstanding final bosses obviously) to go. At least I got a good head start on this today.

Welp, 100% Soul Suspect last night, so now onto my Death's Door umbrella run to 100% this. Really committed to my cleanup job this year.

I don't know how to look back on the experience of playing this game. On one hand, I did like it, but on the other hand, I felt more relieved than fulfilled upon finishing it. Last night I noticed that I am getting so tense and frutrated playing this game that I'm clenching my jaw and moving into a sitting …

I don't know how to look back on the experience of playing this game. On one hand, I did like it, but on the other hand, I felt more relieved than fulfilled upon finishing it. Last night I noticed that I am getting so tense and frutrated playing this game that I'm clenching my jaw and moving into a sitting position that's hurting my neck. Considering all of that, I think I'm done with this genre of games for a long while.

I don't want to give up on this but everytime I think of picking this up again, I get demotivated. I'm tired of repeating the same run only to die at the same point every time and start again farely far from where I died. It's making me question how I managed to finish Hades.

This is cute. Thought the main character was a raven but it's a crow. This kind of game is not very easy for me, and I just hope I could finish it. So far, the power ups are long to come by, and it doesn't feel like they change much.

Plays beautifully on Steam Deck and now I have yet another game I want to replay before the end of the year. The list is growing long and I’m skeptical I can finish them all by 31 December.

Great price for Death's Door as part of the Steam Autumn sale (50% off). Good time to grab this for anyone who's been eying it but hasn't yet taken the plunge. I am thinking of grabbing it which would make for the third time I've purchased it, lol. Really want to finally play this on a handheld.

Welp, got every achievement except to beat the game using only the umbrella, which I'll do at a later date. Fantastic little title, super tight and concise without ever really glitching or becoming overly lengthy with a wonderful sense of humor to boot. Really really great, highly recommend.

In Death's Door is it absolutely required to get all the stat upgrades? I'm ready to face the Lord of Doors and yet it would take almost 6k soul to get the remaining stat upgrades. There's no achievement tied to getting them all, nor do they appear to be required for 100% completion, so is it really all that necessary …

There's no achievement tied to getting them all, nor do they appear to be required for 100% completion, so is it really all that necessary or should I just beat the game? Cause that's...that's a hefty grind, man.

Alright, that's two of three bosses down. This has been one of the most enjoyable things I've played this year simply because it doesn't expect more from me than it gives. It's got a fantastic game meets gamers abilities melting point, and I appreciate that. It never gets overly difficult, but still provides a challenge, and nothing is obtuse to …

It's got a fantastic game meets gamers abilities melting point, and I appreciate that. It never gets overly difficult, but still provides a challenge, and nothing is obtuse to the point of misunderstanding. Definitely a solid little title.

The game started real rough, like so rough it almost killed interest out the gate, but I stuck with it and after about 2 hours or so it really started to warm up. Now I'm past the first major boss and honestly I love it and can't recommend it enough. It's also got a surprising amount of humor, considering what …

I'm happy for these Xbox sales cause it's nice to finally be able to play the stuff everyone else has played recently.

I'm trying to stay positive, but so far this is....just...blah. There's nothing really bad about it, but it's just so...everything, ya know? I feel like I've played this a million times in a million other games that look almost identical and play almost identical. Gonna give it a fair shot, but not a great first impression.
