Why are the run and gun levels so bad?

This game is kicking my fucking ass what the FUCK

Why the whole game so bad? I pirated it and still feel like I've been ripped off. If it didn't have the amazing hand drawn look no one would give a fuck about it.

Because they were a late edition when everyone was complaining like children at the idea of the game being nothing but boss rushes.

This is what happens when you let consumers, who really don't know what they want, affect a creative vision.

They're not bad, they just need more breather periods.

Every single level is so dense that you can't actually breath until the hubworld

What do you expect from the Dark Souls of Run and Gun's?

correct

viral marketers pls go

The only thing I don't like about them is how you partially outrun the screen.

nu-Sup Forums is literally too stupid to see blatantly ironic posts for what they are

The levels are awesome if you're doing the pacifist runs. Then they become quick platforming puzzles. Also many enemies are easier if you decide to avoid them.

oh shit my character isnt leveling up, my sense of progression is lost!
it's almost as if im the one that has to level up to conquer these levels!
fuck of, you all sound like you came back from playing mobile games, i remember metal slug being hard, and that game penalized you for losing, i say cuphead is giving it too easy. but everyone now better pay those lootboxes up to get the sense of progression am i right

the run and gun levels are fine. boss rush only would've been boring and fucking retarded

i bet they murdered your family and drink unicorn blood too. #literallyhitler

i agree.

making you start the level over after dying isn't penalizing?

sorry skip gameplay button its in the ubisoft threads, go there

Why is*

Because they were only added after people kept asking them during preview builds if it was only boss levels

?

>american education

No it wouldn't have, there are only 6 run and gun levels, the game could have done without them.

Furi did just fine with only bosses.

Sections

Firstly, too many gimmicks like the shitty gravity switching and the worst autoscroller I've ever seen. Secondly, far too much platforming for a run n gun with extremely simplistic platforming mechanics. The game isn't sure if it wants to be Contra or Mario, and so the levels suffer.

this game just makes me want to play metal slug

Cuphead is closer to Gunstar Heroes or Alien Soldier.

It is literally just a cute version of Shattered Soldier

They're not.

I see the game more as a megaman boss rush than anything, I dont really feel the platforming levels are necessary but I honestly feel them as a break from the bosses, taking in consideration the focus required and upgrade collecting

Sorry Xbox fans but Sonybros won't let you enjoy your great game, they have to tear it down.

Fucking hell, this game.
>got a frankenstein 2009 PC setup
>macgyver a way for the game to work

When they are that short not really.

m8, come over here, real talk.
who hurt you user? why are you so upset?
I'm taking my time for you here user, I usually ignore this shit, but today is special. today I want to know what drives you to make that post

A lot of people buy the game just for the art, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Because the main focus is on the boss battles?
