Luigi's Mansion 3 (Switch) - 2019

Just got to Floor B2, 6 hours and 3 mins on the clock at the moment, the last 2 floors have been great fun and had some great moments.

Didn’t end up finishing this last night, got to floor 15 though so should definitely be done tonight.

Well I've just reached the castle and y'all are bobbins.

How annoying are the bats? Some of the most annoying videogame baddies since... well, Pokémon's Zubats.

Use the jump to scatter them. Simples.

Floor 10 annoyed the hell out of me

Learned that, eventually, after my first encounter, when I was being set upon by three of them and lost about 25 health. They’re still annoying.

Totally this

The strawberry float is this B2 boss

On with floor 15 now, doesn’t seem like it’s an overly long one.

The boss on B2 really showed up how dodgy the controls can be, it’s the way the left and right directions flip depending on where you are facing. It’s really crappy at times.

I bet the floor 15 boss would be great playing in two player, as one it’s a little annoying.

Done!

Loved it on the whole, thought the last couple of bosses were good but had their annoying portions, not quite as bad as the annoying part of B2’s boss but still could have been slightly less annoying.

Just done B2 and that's the only misstep up until now. The boss in itself is still very imaginative but the control scheme for the inflatable makes it just too frustrating. Also really didn't like the bit with the shark fins, maybe there was a way to defeat them without just running around the buoy but I couldn't figure it and I'd had enough after getting popped 4 times in a row.

I am not looking forward to B2 fellas.

It's not that bad, there are just a couple of sections where the controls make life difficult. It's then on to floor 10 though which is wonderful.

B2 wasn’t so bad. The boss was a little annoying, but there are far more frustrating bosses in video games in general!!

The actual thing that got on my nerves on B2 was the music. Why did they choose something that suited an American Farm setting rather than a sewer?

I've just done the same and felt exactly the same about it, the first bit I haven't really enjoyed. As otheres have said, the theming was fine but I felt like I was battling with the controls and it became quite frustrating. Other than that though I'm loving it and looking forward to seeing what the next floor is like after hearing so many good things.

You can beat the shark fin ghosts. You've just got to experiment.

I never found out how to defeat them, genuinely interested as to how!
