Me While Playing this game
Stage 1: ... Huh, this is pretty basic.
Stage 2 or 3: Who the hell put spikes down there?!
Stage ?: ... What the heck was the point of the shortcut?
Stage 5 or so: Ooooh, so THAT's what that button does...
Stage 6: FUCK! This is hell!
Stage 6 (after remembering the charge): When the hell do I use this thing?!
Stage 6 (after figuring it out): HAHA! I'm a frickin' matador, fucker!... Mastodon? Bull-fighter-- (gets killed) FUCK!!
Stage 6 (Oh, right, I have a block button): ... That was easy.
WORD TO THE WISE: Don't block while standing right next to the fucking minotaur dude. Guaranteed death.
