I was actually fine with The Meat Circus until that part where I had to climb the spiraling cage.

Then I wished hangnails on the level designers.

A lot of my anger at that spiraling cage was dealt with once I resorted to levitation and bouncing.

Not all of it, mind you.

For me, it was figuring out you had to climb the INSIDE of the cage.

I loved every part of the game up until the Meat Circus; but eventually I uninstalled the game and watched the ending on youtube rather that subjecting myself to that timed platform jumping hell. I have not hated a level in that way since the time of 16-bit systems.

I loved both of those parts. Milla sure looks weird dressed up like that.

Hopefully, executive meddling.

Actually, I think most people would have agreed that Brutal Legend was really good had we all actually been TOLD in advance what the game was going to be like instead of being led down the route of action/adventure platformer, Zelda-ish stuff only to have the rug yanked out at the last minute.
