The feather parts especially on bsides kind of fucked it for me. I was using dpad but had to switch to analog

huh?

does Yea Forums like it?
i guess the response so far isnt overwhelmingly negative

I know, my backlog is too big for that kind of stuff, I got 60ish games and probably beat 20 of em. I have yet to even try RDR2

Most media i like is created by unbearable faggots. I first discovered this watching simpsons dvd commentary.

I can’t do analog. Too imprecise for diagonals. I just checked my stats. This is admittedly after almost all the C-Sides and B-Sides but I’m apparently at 10574 deaths. Jesus. I did get all the strawberries on my first run though.

I don't get the big deal when Dustforce was released a year or two before

You can do it. I booted it up yesterday after not playing for a year, and quickly regained the muscle memory.

no one heard of that though

Games with Gold is great, but the amount of games is killing me. Already at 50+ games after over a year with it and I still have 30+ physical games, about 10 digital games, and however many GamePass games that interest me.

>I didnt buy a XboneX to play SNES-tier games
Most normie-tier shit I've read all day

Pretty good, but I would like to see more core momentum-based platforming instead of gimmicks in every level.
The characterization/visual design and writing is garbage though.

I guess it's like the praise Fez got when Crush 3D was out a few years before and to a lesser extent Super Paper Mario

Please recommend me games like Celeste.

>Good game
>Yea Forums likes it
Seems fair enough to me. If you decided what you liked based on the person who created it you would end up liking nothing. People who make their career in creative mediums are usually gigantic faggots. If you cared about the people who made the things you like, you would hate all bands. You would hate Devil May Cry, Viewtiful Joe and Bayo since Kamiy is such a faggot. You would hate everything at Nintendo because Miyamoto is a retard. You would hate Super Meat Boy and BoI because Edmund McMillen is a terrible person. Moral of the story is to divorce the creator from the creation because shitty people can make good entertainment.

Matt specifically took examples from Mario Galaxy and Cuphead when designing Assist Mode. He noticed that in Cuphead, easy mode removed boss cycles, which he felt was watering down the game, while Galaxy instead used "Assist Mode", removing none of the content but instead buffing the player to be able to beat a segment they were stuck at. That's what he modeled Celeste's Assist Mode off of, not wanting to cut content but allow less-experienced players to play the game too.

who gives a shit its a good game

Dustforce was released in 2012. Celeste was released in 2018. Six years is not "a year or two before."

uhh super meatboy

My brother gets to play Celeste because of Assist Mode. Though he stopped using it because it felt like cheating. He’s 7. I should probably just tell him to use it. He’s stuck at the hotel.

Yeah, you’re right. I booted it up again and can get through the Crystal part before the second cloud. I can fucking see the summit. But I can’t do the first part consistently enough to practice the second part. Fucking C-Sides weren’t even hard before this part.

I didn’t like it much. Ok precision platforming. Bleh story. Would not recommend except to fans of hard platformers.

I've already played that.

Biggest chud this side of salty meele fags today. You do you though.

Only the OST is done by a tranny and Matt may be an SJW but he's been a great game designer since way before that ever was relevant or in vogue. This is the guy who's influence is responsible for meat boy. He makes great games.

V is more tolerant than you might expect.

play every megaman then
thats what i did

Which C-side are you stuck on?

Excellent game. The evolving mechanics and unique platforming experiences the game provides makes for one of the most solid games I played in the last few years in terms of pure enjoyment.

This is something that seems to be lost on people in cases like this because it's very rare for a team of SJWs and trannies to make anything noteworthy. It's incredibly annoying when people can't see a great game for what it is just because of the devs.

How do you do the thing where you dash and wall jump in the same leap and get extra height? I need to do it and I don’t remember how.

Extremely low quality thread. No discussion other than "it was pretty good"

If you don't have something interesting to say about a game, then why the fuck did you even post this?

no, play megaman zero 3

They're nothing alike. Dustforce's core gameplay feels like you're speedrunning at all times. It's designed for you to figure out optimal routes and try a level over and over for a better time. The precision skills involved are way more about gaining momentum and spinning plates. Celeste is essentially a puzzle platformer with really tight movement. The two only share a genre, nothing else. They're both great though.

Uh, the 7th one? I guess. The last part of the seventh one where you see the summit, you got through one crystal section which is pretty easy, then one empty pit where you need to wall jump and then another brief crystal section.

How tough are the toughest sections of this game compared to path of pain in hollow knight? I did that today and thought it was a nice little challenge.

Looks like it was published on the PS3 and 360 by CAPCOM in 2014 as well. That's even worse that it was ignored.

>I wouldn't recommend it unless you like the genre it's in
Well... Yea.

How about I just recomend you the best pure 2D platformers and you play any of them that you haven't already.

Donkey Kong Country 1, 2 & 3 (Especially 2)
Donkey Kong Country Returns and Tropical Freeze
SMB 1, 3 and World
Yoshi's Island
N++
Dustforce
Rayman Legends
Meatboy
S3&K and Mania
Duck Tales

main game is easy enough if youve ever played a platformer
the b and c sides c get pretty challenging

Dash upwards while you're next to a wall, then press and hold the jump button while you're still dashing. You'll know if you did it right by the sonic lines Madeline leaves behind on her super jumps.

7-C can be really tricky, you have to get the muscle memory for it. But it's really satisfying to do once you get it.

I see a lot of DKC2 influence in Celeste just in the way levels are designed. Definitely check that out if you somehow haven't.

You're the best!

huh?

Anyone else beat this or find it hard?
When Celeste came out with GWG, I got to it and beat it by the second day I had it. Under 3% completed it then and hasn't gotten above 3%. I think more people have beaten the game than it.

Now this is some bullshit. If he wanted to make the game accessible, he should have designed it as an easy game. The joy from playing hard games is not only to overcome great challenges, but also to deeply understand the game. It is almost a zen experience to feel like you are completely connected to the character.
This "empowering" assist mode ignores this aspect of the game to focus on the superficial appreciation of content. It is more alienating than it is inclusive.

Great game emburdened by snowflake pandering

It's disappointing how "muh depression" completely eclipsed unironically great level design in that game

According to Yea Forums, every single western indie game is made by SJWs and trannies, and obviously there are plenty of great indie games.

Celeste, Cup Head, Shovel Knight, Super Meat Boy, Issac, Papers Please, FTL, Furi, Hollow Knight, SOMA, Hotine Miami, Gugeon, La Mulana, Necro Dancer etc. If someone on Yea Forums says that a game was made by SJWs, that literally means nothing to me at this point. It also usually just means that one of the dev team made an anti trump post on twitter or something.

Yeah. I’m pretty pleased with myself for just having conquered the first part desu. I got like halfway through the third crystal part, but I’m trash at the middle part. A lot of it comes down to my piss poor timing on the wall dash jumps. I like that they made an easy shortcut for people like me right after that part though.

>my opinions
obviously the creator disagrees or he wouldnt have made the game the way it is

>mfw /pol/ fags who are "Nazis who enjoy video games" (just LOL) came here and got trolled that there was an abortion clinic at the top of the mountain

Attached: 1545640985082.png (277x325, 123K)

Matt designed it to be hard, and Assist Mode is for people who have trouble. But he encourages people to play it without Assist Mode first, since it's the way the game is meant to be played.

Naw, there’s liking shit like Mario galaxy, or some light weight shit, and liking shit like I want to be the guy or rain world, or the path of pain from hollow knight.

I can also feel a strong David Wise influence from the music.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAARGGHHH

WHY THE FUCK ISNT SHE REAL BROS????? SHE HAS THE MOST COMFORTABLE AMOUNT OF EDGE IN BOTH APPEARANCE AND PERSONALITY TO THE POINT OF WHERE IT FUCKING INFURIATES ME THAT SHE DOESN'T EXIST!!!! I WANT TO CUDDLE WITH HER FLOATING FORM AND FEEL THE SOFTNESS OF HER HAIR AND THE WARMTH OF HER JACKET

Jumper games at the very bottom are closest to celeste

the story was really barebones and her depression was barely touched on
i wouldnt say it eclipsed anything

Yea Forums loved cuphead, shovel Knight, meat boy, Isaac, FTL, furi, SOMA. hotline Miami, and La Mulana but won't shut the fuck up about the made up abortion meme for Celeste so I don't really see your point. They don't consistently hate the things you listed.

This, the game's depiction of panic attacks is fucking laughably inaccurate.

>i wouldnt say it eclipsed anything
ALL the talk about the game was how it touched on some meme subjects

ALL of it

each and every single video about the game talks about it first, second, and last

it's easier than a level in the main game

For every new indie game that comes out I see people shitposting about how its an "SJW game" and how they hope it bombs. It has no meaning anymore.

They genuinely did believe there was an abortion clinic at the top of the mountain. Shit was hilarious. If you are for some reason a "Nazi who enjoys video games" (again just lol at your existence how the fuck do you exist) I am sure you want that embarrassing moment go go away, as well. Just like 1939-1945

It's a thing that happened, Nazi.

If you jump at all you have to restart. Dying won't restore that strawberry.

>Mad Nazi weirdo detected

Alright, fuck it. I can pretty reliably do the first part and the first two thirds of the second part. I can knock this out tomorrow. I need to sleep now though. I can’t have this game eat up my life again.

But Celeste is legitimately made by "SJWs". It's great but it's not like that's an improper assessment

did he actually do one of that?

Best of luck, user.

Now you know how 99.9% of this fucking board feels when rabid /pol/tards come here and spam their brainwashed shit

And how does that effect the quality of the game at all? It has absolutely no effect on the gameplay, and it doesnt even effect the story since none of the themes are about social justice.

I'm not mad because the game has difficulty options. In fact, Cuphead handles it way better because it is not a cynical game trying to come off as "inclusive". Cuphead offer a way to experience the same flow state that is looked for by more experienced players to people who find it too hard by presenting a new experience that is tailored to this purpose. It is a more honest way of handling difficulty. Celeste offers candies (by putting the superficial experience of the game above the mechanical) and a pat in the head while trying to come off as superior to the way other games handle this matter.

in lew of this and the fact that i also want to fuck badeline

>I went on the politics board of an anime website and now I have a Nazi flag in my room
Fucking lol

Although it doesn't impact the game, which was my original point, the story is blatantly impacted by that fact. It's not a political SJW story but their obsession with making everything about inner conflict and mental health bleeds through. It's a very "tumblr'esque" plot.

>i havent watched any of these videos
so you have no idea about game's reception
yet you argue about how the game was received...

Assist mode is optional, stop being a baby bitch about it

idk man i feel like excluding boss runs is a pretty pussy way of making a game "accessible"

>while trying to come off as superior to the way other games handle this matter
Source?

>quality of the game at all?
>It has absolutely no effect on the gameplay
these are two different things
story is a part of the game, and it makes me cringe, which interrupts me trying to have fun
the gameplay is good, and that's fine

Dunkey’s video made me buy this game. Which was stupid in hindsight but it was all about gameplay.

>it doesnt even effect the story
It absolutely does, the dev's idea of a panic attack is "oh no something triggered me wait never mind I'm completely over it 10 seconds later"

Epic

Speaking as the autist that made the post, I doubt he would be able to churn one out so fast, since I literally just made that post. His contributions to Jevilposting was a bit of inspiration, though.

i never said dick about how the game was received, that her depression never "eclipsed" the gameplay was my opinion

if anything you never said that you were speaking in terms of the games reception. you just said her depression eclipsed the games level design

Man, I wanna be the guy is cool and I do like it, but Celeste isn’t actually difficult while actually still being rewarding. I could not get far in IWBTG, I might’ve gotten to like the initial Castlevania area before quitting.

>durrr both platformer
>buhhhhh both same game

>It's not a political SJW story but their obsession with making everything about inner conflict and mental health bleeds through
Most retarded thing I've ever read. Depression and mental health problems are an extremely common theme in fiction, and you attributing those themes to SJWs is confirmation bias at its finest.

Is Crime and Punishment SJW?
Is Evangellion SJW?
Is Shame SJW?
Are the collective works of Charlie Kaufman SJW?
Was Shakespear an SJW?
Is American Psycho SJW?
Is Welcome to the NHK SJW?

Retarded argument.

I imagine when he says “story” he means the overall narrative rather than the dialogue.

Now read the second sentence.

I did, I'm not the person you were replying to
the story is cringe, regardless of if it's sjw or not
this is a bad thing
this detriments the game, not significantly, but noticeably

It may be a necessary compromise. Obviously a lot of effort went into Cuphead's animation and stuff, I'm sure the devs wouldn't pass the opportunity to present them to everyone if they did not arrive at the conclusion that a cycle might not be compatible with the difficulty they were aiming at. This is why I think that Cuphead's approach is very honest, it puts the game before the presentation, even if an enormous effort went into it.

The sprite work is abhorrent.

>i never said dick about how the game was received
because you don't read

That I can agree with. Not the bit about it being detrimental to the game, because you can just skip it, but the bit about it being shit. It certainly isn't SJW, but it is bad.

no you didnt, go troll someone else

This game looks fun gameplay-wise but I'm not playing it because it sóy

The themes are fine, the execution and perception of these themes is what makes the game feel fueled by SJW ideas. Even down to how the dialogue is written is very similar to what it sounds like when people on Tumblr write made up conversations for a joke. Everything about the games narrative feels related to that corner of culture.

Her mental state is a core part of the story. It is supposed to be so severe that Celeste manifests from it an entire second personality. Yet in the times we see this illness on display it is laughably mild.

That’s just Celeste’s magic acting up. As for how mild it is, they could’ve made it more extreme but it would’ve been even more distracting. Anyway, I don’t know what I’m trying to prove since the dialogue doesn’t make me cringe at all.

Why do you spend enough time on Tumblr to be familiar with their writing style?

>implying they stay on Tumblr

yes it should, because not everyone has good reflexes, some people are handicapped, some people are disabled, and this mode allows them to enjoy the game as well as we do

games are for everyone user

it has a nigger in it so its 0/10 by default

Its pretty good, C and B tracks are insane. I am never getting the special strawberries though.
