>le deep pixelshit about abortion

>he fell for the shitposting meme that it's about abortion

looks boring as fuck

i know right? what's the point of playing a game if not for the graphics?

>cucklord
can you elaborate? i like his past games so it would be a shame to know he's a loser. is it because he's a liberal and celeste's composer is a tranny?

really not sure if the abortion posters are from people who have not played the game but genuinely believe that it's about abortion or just people trying to troll and get yous. if its the former, it's an interesting case in how personal bias can keep one separated from what's true.

people who dislike this game are just bad

Generic precision platform is considered the best indie game during a video game awards, there is nothing unique or different about Celeste when you compare to other precision platforms, like Meat Boy, They Bleed Pixels or Dustforce.

Celeste looks fun, but I can't support this developer because they put anita sarkeesian as DLC in Towerfall.

I'd say im pretty progressive, I vote labour, I agree in higher taxes and higher public spending, I am pro immigration, pro remain in EU, I liked captain marvel and I like diversity and inclusion. I have no problems with games being pro-trans or pro-gay, infact I think that's a good thing. My issue is with Anita Sarkeesian. I don't see how you can think it is progressive to be in favour of someone who think who puts forwards bad arguments about there being sexist tropes in games. Just become some games are about men saving women, this doesn't mean that its a sexist trope, it just means that some games are about men saving women.
These white knite devs can take their game, which looks good, and shove it there are 100s of good platforming experiences out there, donkey kong, rayman, hollow knight, to name a few, you don't need to support this shitty dev when there are alternatives.

This is an example of how a 2D platformer with strong SJW themes can be done well.

Evidence through context dumbfuck. For a third time do you legitimately have autism?

you're not going to like this answer, but the unique thing that celeste has compared to the games you listed is its story. the story of the game ties with the gameplay in a really cohesive manner that uplifts the whole experience. for those who can't appreciate the story, they'll miss this fact about the game.

I think in the end many people were right about the negative impact of gamergate, it did lead to a slippery slope. After gamergate I feel like gaming became a lot more right-wing and a lot less progressive.

The sad think is it didn't have to be like that if the left/msm was able to separate the harassment narrative of gamergate from the legitimate grievances gamers had with the prominence of cartoonishly stupid SJWs like anita sarkeesian, patrik klepeck, anthony burch and carloyn pettit, I think gamers would have stuck by the left and the MSM.

There is a silver lining though, I do feel that the SJWs are turning on the left, you see it in the UK with Corbyn constantly putting-up with virtue signalling celebrities and remainers and in the US with Hillary supporters using identity politics to argue against sanders. Hopefully once the left can purge itself of the SJW trash we can get back to normality

>IWBTG
What's this?

Isn't that the default for 99% of games?

underage b&

The problem was never the game being bad.
It's a good and solid game but at the end of the day it's at best a step up from Super Meat Boy, a game that is almost 10 years old at this point.

Why the fuck after 10 years are we saying that a game that's better in some ways than SMB should even be considered a game of the year?

you know damn well posting BoF4 is cheating when it comes to pixels, this game has more soul than just about anything, even other pixel games

I wouldn't exactly use that part as an example of good design

Didn't the devs say they made it being inspired by Anita Sarkesian or something like that? I know this game is tied to Anita somehow.

Meat Boy is a copy of Jumping, a game by the creator of Celeste.

That's what "good design" is to you?

>They Bleed Pixels

Underappreciated game.

the dev made another game and put an anita skin in as DLC

That is more of personal experience rather than a technical one, I see more as an artsy bullshit trying to simplify an actual problem.
The plot is not even that good, actual depression and anxiety is not that simple, is not just hiking a mountain and accepting the problems.

Seems stupid and dogshit like to me. Forces you to do everything exactly the perfect way or you fail with no room for creativity. Also trannies are just mentally ill people ruining media because they didn't have the balls to bang the opposite gender beforehand. Fuck anything by them

If anything, it misses the point. You climb the mountain, you do the thing they tell you to do, and you still feel depressed.

It's an okay game. Doesn't do anything different. I don't get why some people liked it so much, it's just a plataformer, we had tons of those with some kind of twist. It's the same thing with Octopath Traveler. They say it's the best JRPG in ages, a return to the basics, but SMT and Dragon Quest never left, you always had tons of options for JRPGs. It's like these people never play games and just skim through the surface of the hobby.

Everyone said that Octopath was shit, though.

Assist mode isn't easy mode. It's a cheat menu. It's weird that people are uncomfortable with calling it what it is. It's basically just a bunch of debug options made available to the player. Anybody who has hangups with it being called cheating probably needs to consider why that bothers them.

git gud

If you told the IWBTG guy that spike filled corridors would unironically be considered good level design he'd probably laugh at you

I would've liked it exponentially more if the entire game wasn't designed around "puzzle" platform rooms.
I can see how people might like it, but I'd prefer if it was more of a standard platformer and the focus was on exploring and finding secrets rather than solving room puzzles in a very specific way.
99% of them are extremely inflexible in how you have to solve them which to me gets old fast.

go dilate

what is this trash?

What do you qualify as good game design? A big part of Hollow Knight is platforming and manipulation of movement and the webm serves to challenge the player's movement.

>Go to any website outside Yea Forums and you'll see praise after praise for Octopath.
reddit hates it, too.

>What do you qualify as good game design?
Dark Souls

Played both (all hearts/berries in Celeste, all regular stages up to the gold stages in Dustforce) Celese feels more approachable without losing out on tech.
Dustforce can be really daunting since you require advanced techniques pretty early without teaching you how to do them. It also has a lot less gameplay variety with mostly being based around increasingly challenging courses, while Celeste does some nice spins on the main gameplay mechanics.
You need a specific kind of taste to enjoy Dustforce, but if you do have that kind of taste, it is a great game.
I wouldn't call one or the other better just to be contrarian.

I don't like precision platformers. I can play them, but they all feel the same to me. Emphasis on frustration, usually want you to do things a certain way instead of leaving it freeform. I just don't get that sense of satisfaction from completing a hard level, because there's always another hard level on the very next screen.

Most recently it was 1001 Spikes. Dying over and over again to do the exact thing the devs intended, maybe there's a "secret" route or something, but otherwise very linear.

Sonic-style is the superior style, things like Dustforce. More open level design, emphasis on time trials, finding your route, doing it well. You can still make them balls-to-the-wall hard, but you're not placing all of that difficulty on memorization and single hard jumps that take 20 years to do properly. A good platformer should be about the amalgamation of all your mistakes and bad decisions slowing you down and losing you points, not about moment-to-moment do-or-die platforming.

I saw a gameplay video out of curiosity and there is mention that it deals with mental health topics. One scene involves the Canadian redhead woman saying that she handles her problems by drinking lots of alcohol and getting angry at people online.

Sounds like she posts on /R9K/.

Just "Jolly Roger Yarr Yarr" it.

Not really.
All there's on that image is the lowest level of level design possible : A very precise and demanding condition to win/advance and if you fail it's an instant lose.

It's very easy to make levels like that with such low amount of parameters.

Meanwhile, some others games need to design levels with environnements, enemies, varying available players skills and still make good design out of that.

Yes, once you beat all of the regular stages and "B sides", you unlock shorter but a lot more challenging "C sides" for each stage. This is the second to last of them

Celeste is a perfect example of an Oscarbait game.

>ridiculously difficult so you get gamer cred for liking it
>"powerful" theme that they identify with nonetheless
>pixel aesthetic, it's so counterculture!

In the end, what makes it so perfect is that a person with depression (or more likely a person who thinks depression is an important issue but doesn't actually have it themselves) can play it, feel like a "real gamer" for a little while, drop it, and then spend the next three years endlessly talking about how great it is and how much it "helped their depression", because they think it's an important game and it's their duty to spread the word. Those donor comments aren't real. They're from people who played through the first few levels and never touched it again, maybe watched a video on youtube for the story. It's not about the game, but about the aesthetic of the culture surrounding it.

It sure as hell didn't deserve a game of the year nomination.

why do indie devs think "do this series of button inputs with pixel perfect timing or die and start over" is what makes platformers fun

Just because you only count getting fucked up your doo-doo walls, as "sex", doesn't mean the rest of us do.

/thread

It's easy to make because the gameplan is linear and the gamestate is binary. You follow the path and you either do it right or you die. This allows for rapid development of levels. It's easy to make. And "hardcore" gamers will deflect any and all criticism of the game with "git gud".

But you're right, IWBTG is absolutely the wrong fucking platformer to be taking cues from.

That does not look fun

No, I only invoke this with games that aren't that hard and don't require an easy mode, like Sekiro.
