Fits a trek through a castle's hallways better IMO. It's either that or KDI's stage 3 music.
It is precisely because it never cared, that people do care.  It's something which it's lacking, because that which it has, it has lackluster of.

Aye. I think I'm gonna stick with what I chose. I'm not going for music that fits the environment. I'm going for a theme that's fitting for a climatic final battle... thing... kinda like how the original stage went, y'know?

'Cept that KDI's stage 1 music feels more like an intro stage music, which it is. Personally, I'd pick something that's close to Prologue from SotN or KDII's Phantasm stage music.
...Then again, it won't matter that much anyway since we're watching it for the gameplay, so let's stop this before it escalates into a full-blown argument.

I haven't. It's just that Block 6 is... really god damn hard. I need a break from this play through or else I'm going to snap.

Snap like a whip, eh? But as hard as block 6 is just wait till you get to the dungeon segment. I'll bet you're already dreading it. Just take a breather for however long you feel and then persevere  :)

Admit it. That was the most fitting choice for a boss theme against the Dancing Ghosts.  8)

I have to agree the music was fitting, but since the battle didn't last long enough it was a little oddly timed.

Crazy close calls there. You're a crazy bastard.

I kept getting anxious, expecting the one moment where you accidentally hit a candle or get hit. Holy shit just watching these is nerve wracking. but playing them, dayum son, you crazy.

Thanks for taking the effort, that was entertaining to say the least.  Must have taken quite a few tries, here's hoping it didn't drive you to drink  ;)

From beginning to end...

- Really nice moves around between 0:25-0:28, I was wondering how you planned on dealing with the bats in the entrance hall, but that was particularly well planned.

- 3:50  "BY A SHOE!!" \0/

- 5:26   "Pardon me, come'n thru" or "outa mah way red skeleton"

-  Boss Fight, nice music selection, when I was a teenager that fight took probably 20 tries. Way to avoid getting hit, especially consider, if I remember correctly, their movement is random.

Can't wait to see how you're going to tackle the Sir Grackle boss fight in the next stage.
