Prometheus feels a little overtuned

I used a spoiler mark just in case but I won’t be mentioning any story elements, just the one boss fight with Prometheus

I really don’t want this to come across as any kind of rant or anything like that, I genuinely love the game and what the developers have cooked so far

I bought the game pretty soon after it first hit early access so i’ve had plenty of time to practice and learn every boss and their quirks but Prometheus is the one that consistently bleeds me dry. his fight has quite a lot going on with his various phases and he hits like an absolute truck, granted his attacks do feel a lot more telegraphed than most but he feels like such an outlier in that he’s significantly tougher than any other boss in the game.

i’ve gotten to a point where I can beat most, if not all bosses in the game without using a death defiance but this guy can absolutely shred through all of them before the halfway point of the battle and it feels like such morale buster when you’ve built up a really good assortment of boons and upgrades only for it to mean absolutely nothing for this one fight on the surface

I have no idea how common of a talking point this is, maybe it is just me and I need to get better and i’ll happily accept that but I figured I may as well take advantage of the early access period and give my thoughts on it while it still matters

keep on cooking, Supergiant, you’re goddamn heroes
