No, Sifu, I don't think I will be replaying the last two levels in the hope of getting to the third boss at an age younger than 52.
What's interesting to me here is that I don't really feel like choosing to go back and do it better, yet I don't think this would be as bad if the game was arcade-style and if you run out of lives you simply Have To Start Over. This would also be an opportunity to get rid of the skill tree, which no action game should ever have (let me get good at using the full moveset!! I don't want to wait until the end of the game to get cool additional tools!!).

I really think Sloclap should focus on getting the fundamentals right on their next game and leave aside the interesting concepts that draw away from their exceptional action game feel.
