it doesn’t sound silly like believe me I’m not in any position to declare a phobia stupid
there is like a spider boss monster near the end of the game which is really annoying because, like, out of all the boss battles, she’s the only one that’s almost completely detached from the story. im not even sure why she was included quite frankly but I don’t think there’s any timeline in the game where you can skip over her
idk if you’d be able to watch a playthrough on YouTube and jst skip over the battle with her if you still wanna get a feel for the game, because like I said she doesn’t rlly matter, but if that works for you, eh, it’s an alternative
you can avoid fighting her if you buy an item from her bake sale right outside the battle I believe. it’s REALLY expensive, but you can grind for money using the dog residue so it is possible.
