180 + deaths (yes counted after maybe 20~ or so) and 2 hours in, I only got the bastion boss (the one you need to mind control to defeat his servant) to half health before I alt f4d ready to uninstall.. like honestly.
I got the boss mind controlled right by his servent multiple times and no damage was done.
The servant spawned bats on me once every 3 - 4 deaths, resulting in an instant death.
Literally shot me through walls nonstop.
Like if the point is to be challenging I get it, but after painstakingly luring him over multiple times and not getting any damage on a mind control, it starts to feel like jank bullshit instead of a fun and rewarding challenge... The game stops being fun when you say "fuck it I would rather pay someone 100$ cash right now for this charm than deal with this bullshit one more time"
Update a few weeks later
Doing it blind sucks but as advised in the thread, I watched some vids of people doing it and can now clear it in 0-2 deaths and a full run takes about 6 minutes, the actual fight takes about 4 on average
Tl;dr : was bad, got less bad
