The Misdirection Mechanic in Fall Guys is ablest to people with dyslexia

How do you even play the rest of the game OP? Nearly all of the bosses have some sort of "move in this direction to avoid AoE" attack.

Also, sometimes stuff that seems super easy on paper just becomes orders of magnitude harder when you're put in the hot seat with strict timing and in a group setting with pressure to perform. Look at how many people still just cannot handle the math robot in Ridorana Lighthouse. It's literally an elementary school level task, but when you throw it into the middle of a boss fight and introduce a time limit or else BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO YOU, it's like being in a whole new world.

Tbh I had no idea what was going on with that mechanic the first few times I ran that because when it was like "multiples of 3" I would step in the marker with 3 dots, and wonder why I was still failing the mechanic. It wasn't clear to me that my HP was being modified and that the marker was adding to the HP and THAT was what you needed to make into a multiple of 3. Once I understood that it became braindead easy. The ability to "math" was never my problem there.

You speaking the language I don't quite understand.

You're ablest to people who have difficulty learning languages.

Are you sure dyslexia is the right word here? I've worked with people with dyslexia and I guarantee if I pointed at something, they'd be able to figure out where my finger was pointing to. They absolutely had a hard time writing out signs for the store and I was there to help, but if I said "It's the fifth TV on the middle shelf" and point to it, they'd get it right every time.

Sorry OP, but what's stopping you from just having a note that says "If arrow points left, face character right"?

the clickable points of interest particularly the broken robot on the path right before math robot boss tells you the solution somewhat. any but I did the same thing but so did everyone else going through the first time.

I'm sorry but what, what does having dyslexia have to do with the little finger that points where you're supposed to go ?

I think the word they are after is Dyspraxia.

The mechanic does suck though, and I've beaten every Ultimate. It's the frustration of seeing people keep moving like they weren't impacted by the mech that gets to me.

Three bits of information that might help, might not:
* Always hit the activation zone from the center, and preferably jump into it. This maximizes the time you have to react to the direction it initially sends you in while minimizing the risks of getting a really bad one.
* Remember that it always rotates clockwise, and will always start from your current direction when you release. You can use this by quickly releasing and repressing to correct a 'close but not quite' direction easily.
* You don't need to be the first to qualify, you just need to qualify - and the final stage has no movement gimmicks at all.

I’d add to those tips to let the crowd get a little bit ahead of you so you can clearly see your own arrow and rotate in time. You can make up the time in the parts of the course you’re better at.
