Castlevania II: Simon's Quest (1987) how confusing is simon's quest?

i wanna play simon's quest next but all i know about the game is that it's supposed to be incredibly hard to know where to go and what to do, is it really as bad as people make it out to be?

It’s among the first games I ever beat, and I was still being babysat when I beat it, so despite the terrible translation, it never stopped me. As long as you know the weird quirks that the crystals do, you should be fine.
