Anyways, I had like four days of catch-up to make. Great job with Brahma. That's a very satisfying puzzle to solve, and the fact that it isn't a one-time thing makes it so much more bearable than the scale puzzle in the first game. I look forward to Hall of Malice. Death Gene may be my favorite track in the game. It sounds like something right out of an intense sport game, and given the deathmatch nature of the Hall of Malice, that's very fitting. It also starts with such a great "kick", which goes great with the background crumbling away to that death vortex. Very similar a "whoa" experience to clearing the fog in Eden.
Also, gonna spoiler this just in case, but knowing it now won't actually ruin anything since it's all in the past, it's in regards to getting the gauntlet:
