Does Santa Monica studios know that they don't need to put a puzzle every 5 steps 🤣 Love the game. The only thing I dislike is the sheer amount of puzzles. You can't go 5 minutes playing without a puzzle.

Ik man I love it but it slows the game down too much with these puzzles

Puzzles at this sequel are annoying and tedious. A feeling i didnt have in the slightest at the original. For this i need guides...not good.. God damn puzzle every 5 steps. Its a 7/10 just for that for me. Takes away a lot of the fun. Plus the enemies keep jumping around and behind you which further aggravates the annoyance factor without making it more difficult

Agree.

the 3 vine room, with the slightly open door you have to stand back from the nearest ground vine throw the axe at the purple 'deflector' then pull the axe in just at the right time through the nearest ground vine, to get a shield atatchment. it takes some practice though.
