After all this time, after beating LM2 first, I finally beat this legit(ish). Final boss was surprisingly free compared to the other bosses in this game and the final boss of LM2. Thankfully, this game doesn't place as big an emphasis on combat as LM2, save for the Shrine of the Mother but that's understandable since its the final area. Wasn't a fan of the mantra puzzle, had to brute-force half of it. The scale puzzle tho...super satisfying to figure out.
La-Mulana is a tier of its own when it comes to Metroidvanias.

Feel exactly the same as the majority regarding this game. Platforming levels are fun. Vehicle levels suck. And god are they fucking miserable, with the motorcycle and plane levels especially. Like really ND, it wasn't enough to make the motorcycle handle like a tank? Now we gotta do it in the dark w/ fat UFOs blocking the road and chasms sucking you in for barely clipping their edges? Y'all crying about Abby in 2020, ND been trash since '98 for this nonsense. AND the fact that the secret world (26-30) only consisted of VEHICLE levels (not counting the two secret paths for already-existing levels)? Was so disappointed when I came to that realization, this just might be my least favorite of the trilogy.
Surprisingly fun Tennis-RPG that puts up a pretty stiff challenge as the game goes on. Both Singles and Doubles formats are fun to play.
