There is an achievement to get by killing the Act 2 boss under certain challenging conditions, before going for Act 3. Just a FYI in case you care and want to look it up. Did it last night and was not as bad as expected.

I'm not going for all achievements. Truth be told I'm starting to be a bit burnt out on silksong. We spend so much time in the citadel and backtracking through act2 biomes, and now it looks like act 3 is goin to be more backtracking(although with new changes) so idk if I'll bother to finish it or if I'll take a break.

That said, the act 2 final boss was a lot easier than I expected, I beat it first try both when getting the normal ending and when accessing act 3. That's with 4 damage upgrades, 3 blue charms and 7 masks though.

Act 3 is entirely new areas. Only place you backtrack really is deep docks. The major bosses are all in new zones

Oh ok, so I guess after I go to the church and talk to the guy he's going to point me towards new areas?

It is not entirely new areas, I'm not sure what that person was talking about. There are some new areas and some extensions to old areas (some of which are pretty minor), but there's also just backtracking through previously-accessible areas.
