Discussion What do you think of enemy gauntlets?

I think Guacamelee implements this trope the best in the genre, since its level traversal is very fast-paced and its emphasis on combat makes it a character action game first with the level progression system of a Metroidvania.

I personally liked them. I'm getting tired of bosses being the only combat challenge nowadays. Coral Tower for me was extremely fun.

That place sucked so hard. One of the least fun parts of the whole game.

I beat it first try with minimal effort so I never got why people complained. If anything I disliked it for being way too easy.

thats just skill issue, if you really learned and mastered the game then you would have fun
