I can’t help but to feel cheated by the fact that in order to make jumps a human can do “normally” as a small asura I have to edge myself over the actual visible edge of the terrain or object and then make the jump.

Same also works in reverse though, sometimes my eyes tell me I should have fallen just now but the game decides I did not. This is of course caused by the difference in model and hitbox the latter being bigger. The only problem being that the latter also happens to be invisible resulting in the fact that the visual feedback is anything but accurate.

Now this is still fine when I have no rush and I can carefully nudge the character into position (read world 1), however, when you are supposed to do timed precise jumps I feel like I am rolling the dice every time I jump.

If I see one one jet of 8bit water I feel like I will go insane….

Try it with a four legged Charr lol. It’s doable, but certainly takes getting used to. The camera shooting up my ars every half a second doesn’t help either.

Doable yes, fun hardly… every time I run world one or even the first part of Rapids I have a blast, but when I get to those cursed water sprouts I slowly start to feel like tearing my hair our.

Doesn’t help that infantile mode is a) a joke and b) shoves unneeded help in your face, why can’t I have help when I want it and do the bits I can without cheery clouds getting in the way (doesn’t help that the game is constantly mocking me). Also would be nice if we could unlock worlds in infantile then do them on normal. Infantile is fine for those who are totally not able to do any jumping or creative thinking (no offense intended), but for someone who might just need an occasional helping hand all it does is trivialize the content.

If it would at least persist our last activated checkpoint then at least I could take breaks, but as it is now… I have to do or die essentially and then repeat the beginning next time (I am getting pretty fast at it though, so something good at least).
