Right then. Mensis. So far I've not found it
that bad.
The first section with the garden frenzy light is a bit cack. If only because of how long it seems to take the frenzy to stop. Mainly because of how long it continues to build even when hiding. Its a neat enough idea and I do like that it effects the enemies here. Although not in the same way as they dont seem to suddenly loose a lot of health. Just gradually. The worms that come out of the defeated creatures can GTFO out though.
strawberry floating lock on/swinging gooseberry fool. Just stab the little strawberry floaters you twatting hunter twat.
I headed to the right and found another lantern very quickly and what was obviously some future shortcuts. On one hand it was cool I found this. On the other it felt strange to have two lanterns so close together. It was almost like they just stuffed the shortcuts in.
Anyway. I went back the other way over the bridge. Nearly got to the door but got 1 shotted by a boulder throwing twat. Full health. Gone.
Should probably have just run past them (which I did later) but I wasn't sure if I'd be safe waiting for the door to open. The main problem with going right at the start is I lit the lantern so I started there and it kind of threw my tactics in a spin. I got ganged up on the next go but I might have survived had it not been for the magic extendo claws this
gooseberry fool head had. Messy enemy design. I eventually got inside to see a room full of spiders.
This was awesome. I decided to leave well alone unless they went for me. Which of course they eventually did. They followed me much further then I expected and engaged my
run the strawberry float away skill.
Which I got gud at years ago. Putting a hunter right after a horde of chasing spiders was inspired/dickish in the extreme. I found the shortcut. Then went back dealt with the hunter. I will go back to the spider room and try and take them all on. Hopefully the biggy drops something interesting.
But for now I pressed on to find some pretty docile chaps walking about. They seemed a bit........ constructed. Not mechanical as such but also not alive as such. Every now and then one would attack me. Anyway. I dealt with them and the big ones that I assume maybe control them. Took a couple of goes thanks to sniper banana splits.
Got outside to find hound/crow crow/hound things. Clearly some gooseberry fool have been going down here.
Something oddly funny about the crow headed hounds. I eventually found Microsoft, the host of the nightmare.
This fight was............ odd. I beat him first time.
It took ages as I went around and around. I got fed up with his repeated dialogue. Seriously shut the strawberry float up. This didn't help as everytime I wanted to pick up an item I had to skip each bit which was irritating. Bloke just seemed to have a novel to get though.
I kind of got lost. It seems like there were two areas with an almost "normal" section in between. Which confused me. Anyways. I found him and got in his face and he died. Dunno what to make of it really. I mean it was different but.... it was also quite boring and tedious and had I died I cant imagine it would be much fun. Anyway. He "woke up" when he died so I guess he is the corpse in the chair (after Bob) and I was in his dream. Or the same dreamland. I stopped here.
