Yeah, I'm digging this thread up just to say smurf this dungeon and the sensitive controls.
First of all, I kind of had a hard time even getting to the entrance. Flying the Regalia to the thin landing strip and setting it down between all those rocky mountains took several tries of blowing myself up.
I was getting angry with this dungeon. To make sure that I wasn't just irrationally blaming the controls for my own mess ups, I took to reddit and elsewhere to see if anyone else was having a similar issue.
I agree. I think this is the core issue. The problem isn't the length or the timed jumps you might expect of an inherently difficult end game dungeon, it's the controls.Originally Posted by Aulayna
Most deaths in this dungeon for me weren't the result of making a wrong move, but of only trying to take the slightest step with the analog stick and Noctis decides to take a full step or roll.
The reward for the long trek through this dungeon is a Black Hood accessory which lets you auto-dodge, but I don't think I would even wear that because I'm pretty good at dodging on my own, and having to do it makes me more engaged in any given battle.
Maybe on a future playthrough or New Game + I'll get around to it, but I'm passing on it for now. More than a sense of accomplishment for beating the dungeon, I just see so many people saying "I'm glad that's over with".
