Literally never seen a game do that in a way you dont have to take the "lead-up" skills again on respec. No chance I ever would have noticed if not for this post

People love Odyssey I've heard how "Nintendo does so well having the hard content after the main game" and was so sad when the hardest level besides the final final one asked me to like...long jump 3 times in a straight line? I'm an insane person who loves Sunshine though I'm not for this world

This is part of why the AAA "Walk at a snail's pace in a straight line because we took your weapons away" is so common. They won't actually disempower the player in any real way OR let them wander off and "lose". So they have to just show the player something bad in a scene around them. It's lame!
