Is cuphead really that hard..? It doesn't seem that way from footage. Also, some of these people overreact waay too much. I don't think I'd throw such a tantrum from just dying on a part of a stage. It's kinda funny to watch, but also a bit painful. I don't understand people who get angry enough to break a controller or keyboard.

You don't know how many times they tried that level before, also some died right before finishing the boss. There is also added pressure of streaming, since you want to get on with the game, and everyone can see you fail.

Yeah, that is true. That could have been playing for a long time during those moments and are irritated at that point. Taking a break from it to cool off may be a way to relieve stress, but I suppose streamers don't have that option either. It must be kinda hard to be a streamer at times, haha.

It's pretty challenging, yeah. It's more about learning boss attacks' patterns, and that could take you a few times before defeat them. I guess it depends on the player's skills, but I found it pretty hard, and I'm used to play this type of games.

I wouldn't say it's so nerve-wracking though, maybe I'm more patient XD.

Yeah, from what I've seen, it looks like it could be challenging, but not enough to freak out like the people in this video. I don't really stress out over games that often.

It's really not. It's basically bosses with 4 or 5 patterns that are easy to figure out. But when you die, the pattern changes (what was 4th may be 1st or something) and your brain just trips up. And too often, the phase you hate the most comes later and you end up choking.

 

In reality, the stages are only 2-3 minutes long (from what I've played).

Well, it's good to hear it's not all bad. I was starting to get the impression this game was just difficult overall. I'm hoping I can try it at least once eventually.
