Some really questionable RNG adjustments here and there.

amazing crimson needle game, massively improving on CN1. needle may be less memorable than usual, but the game sure as hell delivers on pretty much everything else. for every bad needle idea CN1 has, this game has 10 infinitely better ones. this game is so far removed from CN1 that it's somewhat difficult to tell that they're from the same series. I didn't use jtool through this entire game, as I felt it wasn't really necessary - in the spirit of a truly blind playthrough. admittedly, I hadn't seen much of this game before playing it, which I feel made it much more fun. I recommend that you don't use jtool either, unless you get stuck on something for a while.
the only issue with this game is that the needle is somewhat forgettable, as I don't even remember a lot of the tilesets I apparently spent time playing. this doesn't mean the needle is bad, but I can only remember a handful of notable screens. the needle is fantastic though, don't get me wrong. just the type of stuff I enjoy. F100 is quite rough, as the last screen is very easy to choke despite being somewhat easy on its own. in my opinion, the sum of floors F1-F99 don't equal F100's difficulty.
the final boss is a very well-designed masterpiece, and a faithful remake of The Four Gods at that. it's the best crimson fight I've ever played or likely ever will - it'll be very hard to top this one. it can be a bit tilting if you make dumb mistakes or shoot them in the wrong order. you can also get walled sometimes if you don't pay attention and that is quite infuriating when it happens. this unfortunately seems to happen somewhat often, which is my main complaint with the fight. the concept of the bosses merging after being individually killed is very unique and interesting. the whole second phase [sic] is really interesting and well thought out; having to balance out damaging both of the bosses was quite the challenge, but it was all worth it in the end. a truly timeless masterpiece that will forever stand the test of time
