Youre not getting discussion out of this game

saged

Maybe next time you should actually pay attention to the criticism instead of accepting "lol it's bad" as gospel

Well some of the main reasons Yea Forums is wrong is because of being contrarians, hating anything big but at the same time knowing of nothing but rather mainstream games.
Also there's plenty of election tourists shitting it up.

This, trolling works when you respond to it
Nobody who says its bad ever brings up worthwhile criticism like the Crystal Hearts being contrived just to unlock a final platforming challenge but they go on about arbitrary shit.

reminder that the narrative forced by 13 year olds on Yea Forums was that it was about the girl having an abortion

which has nothing to do with the game's story whatsoever

>Yea Forums is wrong is because of being contrarians, hating anything big
This isnt even true, its just people bandwagoning.
If theres something to attack they'll attack in spades until all discussion becomes the attack.

And because retards like OP buy into it they believe it.

CHAPTER 9 WHEN
hope you know how to extended hyper and wavedash, user

Hilariously whenever you asked them "how is it about abortion" you never get a response.

No. Post more Peach.

It literally doesn't do a single original thing.

Yeah, I have a problem with them, They're contrived and backwards and one of them is locked behind an SMB3 reference.

They're not even challenging, which challening yourself and overcoming your mountains is the point of the game/story, theyre just cryptic shit.

I almost just gave up entirely because I didnt want to go through a fucking walkthrough to do the stupid bird puzzle in reflection.

>game has feelings in it

Huh?

>Is this what you're calling cryptic? Holy shit.
Yes it is cryptic, not everyone played SMB3 and understand white blocks so while it was a cute reference I'm just like "This is cool but is this really the level of puzzlesolving theyre resorting to?"
Chapter 2's Crystal Heart was genius though, I'll give them that but locking the subsequent platform challenges behind all of it was ass backwards.

You can't fucking rebute this, shithead.

It's easy to take having played SMB3 growing up for granted, but that game is also very old and even though it's widely available on digital platforms, it's not something younger gamers would automatically seek out. If you haven't played it there's no way to know how to solve the puzzle. It's not a game breaker by any means but it was kind of hermetically stupid

You can get the chapter 4 heart without using the white block if you're skilled enough. Git gud

Tough shit. In fact a reference like this will make replaying old games a more desirable endeavor for those that haven't so I definitely support that inclusion. Are you going to call the Konami code cryptic next?

You trannies need to shill something else, this is getting old.

The SMB3 block is also skippable if you know about wall bounces (taught in 7-B)

can I go one hour browsing Yea Forums without seeing the word tranny?

today's answer: no

honestly it was just boring and i didn't like the the art direction. I picked it up, played it for an hour and then just felt like playing shovel knight again so I did and a few months later I saw that it was still installed and I deleted it. I think journalists shilled it so hard because of the story and maybe even because of the tranny employee. the gameplay is just not worthy of the praise it received. Shovel knight and super meat boy both have objectively better, deeper, and more interesting gameplay.

Excellent.

I got to the hotel part where I had to organize a bunch of trash to clear pathways? Or maybe it was the windy part on top of some mountain? Whichever is further along. At least that's the thing I last remember. I know for sure I was out of the tutorial.
Look I wanted to love this game and was excited for it. Puzzle platformers are what I like to play when im listening to audiobooks or podcasts after work, but the gameplay was boring. The gimmicks weren't fun for me, and it wasnt all that difficult.

Did you even do the B Sides?

>Shovel knight and super meat boy both have objectively deeper
More doesnt mean deeper
Celeste utilizes dashes and momentum along with grabstamina while everything in shovel knight is very fixed and Super Meat boy is run and jump.

If you're going to go into level design, then Shovel Knight definitely plays with level concepts and Meat boy does play around with all kinds of permutations of obstacles/contraptions but you're seriously downplaying the amount of permutations and combinations of mechanics in Celeste's levels along with the advanced extra mechanics you learn in the B and C Sides respectively.

How far do you think i have to get in a puzzle platformer before I can tell if I'm having fun or being challenged? 1-2 hours is enough for this type of game. The gameplay wasn't there for me.

The art style is definitely tumblr come on dude.

>It's hilarious
you have a pretty low bar for "hilarious". are you laughing out loud in front of your monitor as you read this?

my rule of thumb is that you can usually trust Yea Forums to tell you that a game is good, but you can almost never trust Yea Forums to tell you when a game is bad. at least not these days. and the more vague and vitriol-filled the commentary is the higher degree of likelihood that the game in question is actually good

Wow, it's almost like you should make your own opinions!

Don't bother, he didn't even finish the main story, let alone B/C-sides. He knows nothing about movement tech like hypers and wallbounces

Considering I was still learning mechanics about 6-7 hours in I'd say 1-2 are definitely not enough to properly assess the game. I'm guessing you ignored the side challenges and went through the story levels which are, as you put, not really challenging. At least not the first few.

It's a cool game but I'm too used to IWBTG fangame physics so I still prefer fangames.

>you have a pretty low bar for "hilarious". are you laughing out loud in front of your monitor as you read this?
Of course I am because you're absolutely insane if you think feeding into instigation will stop it.

fuck that shit man, sick

what's actually missable in this game
should I be scouring for stuff constantly
what exactly is in every level

I seem to recall quite a few (positive) threads about Celeste when it first came out.

>objectively
Dropped. Can't you guys say why you don't like a game without acting like your opinion is fact?

Crystal Hearts and Tapes
Everything else is pointless.

>why is Yea Forums always wrong?
Because Yea Forums shitposters dont paly videogames.

nothing permanently missable
there's a B-side tape and crystal heart in each main story level as well as 0-47 strawberries (depending on the level)
you can easily replay with chapter select to get whatever you missed

strawberries aren't pointless, many strawberry rooms are among the most fun rooms in the game

Why can't you criticize the game without mentioning Tumblr or something like that? The dialogue is dialogue. Theo's the only character who has "quirky" dialogue, and since when is a story "tumblr-tier" just because the feelings of the protagonist are part of the story?
You're just as bad as morons who compare any difficult game to Dark Souls, except whenever a game has an art style or story you don't like it's "tumblr".

Objectively is the new literally
Nobody can say something is something without shoving it in before something.

Objectively good
Objectively better
Objectively cooler
Objectively tastier
Objectively subjective

It's just become a faux way [substantiate] a point without any evidence.

It often works against 7/10 people

>that secret room in chapter 6 with a bunch of characters which I assume come from the dev's previous games
neat

Is it? I suck big time at that type of game, couldn't even get into the third area at the beginning and just gave up. If I suck that early is there even a point in trying again? Never saw anything that made me understand why it's so loved, does it have story?

What do you mean 3rd area? If you entered Forsaken City B-side before doing the main story you fucked up

I'm not even trying to criticize it, my point is just that the artstyle and feel of the game is quintessentially SJW/tumblr. Admit it. Which is hilarious because there's actually a great game underneath it, so the Yea Forums twitter screencap brigade is seething and doesn't know how to handle it.

No man, the third fucking area full stop. I can't do all the weird triple jump ropeswing backflip into a barrel roll shit. I remember trying to get a strawberry and just getting pissed off. Barely played it 10 mins. My old man brain can't process that fast now.

>If you entered Forsaken City B-side before doing the main story you fucked up

That's bullshit. I did the B Sides after each main level and the pacing was perfect.

I'm confused at what you're trying to get him to admit. What does >quintessentially SJW/tumblr mean in this context?

Literally just git gud, if you keep trying, it'll become trivial over time. You don't need particularly good reaction times for anything in the game.

optimized to trigger Yea Forums

I wouldn't call the difficulty curve swinging wildly after every single level "perfect". Main A-side story in sequence has great pacing and difficulty curve but alternating with B-sides fucks everything up

Practically every game nowadays is optimized to trigger Yea Forums though.

it means he learned a new word and is trying to find usage cases for it via experimentation

>did this
>all strawberries A-side hover around 300-450 deaths
>B and C sides ofter go 1000+
i recently picked the game up again because i needed to wrap up the C-sides, they really don't fuck around
that wall bounce thing is so precise, i always dash too early and bonk my head, doesn't help that when it happens it feels like someone put a plug on your dick as you orgasmed

Why would Yea Forums think this game is bad? get the fuck out of this board you stupid fuck.

Yea Forums has ironically become very easy to trigger though.

Like how the libsjws of resetera get hard triggered on anything, any small thing that hints at tranny/tumb/twitter/youtube culture will get Yea Forums seething and heated

It's honestly kind of hilarious seeing both go at it

thats the thing though, Yea Forums doesnt think or believe its bad, they just bandwagon on any kind of hatred there is and then ride it to mars and back. It's fun, cool and it's nice to get the ball rolling when its so easy to downplay something.

It's fun to be part of a destructive force.
Its a trait inherent to humankind to destroy and relish in said destruction.

Someone found out the musician is a tranny? Perfect. Let everyone know it's a tranny game and lets ride the coattrails of destruction until the game is no longer discussable.

Create? Thats too much effort, it's far easier and liberating to tear down and destroy.

Destroy.

There's a few you basically can't miss seeing, like the one in the hotel and the one in the 2nd stage (if you're exploring). Now, getting them is a different story.
The one in the dream level, holy shit, that was infuriating when I figured out what the trick was

The platforming is really fun, and the challenge ramps up nicely. Tons of content if you unlock it too.

The story is beyond stupid. A vapid attempt at appearing deep and meaningful. I always tell people to check out the game but skip the cutscenes. It would have been exponentially better without a single word of dialogue.

There’s just nothing to discuss IMO. It’s a very short game and the challenge bits are memorization levels of shallow.

I did like half the Bs before putting it down. Like I said, I found it shallow. It felt very overpriced, especially when Hollow Knight was out around the same time for 15.

If we’re talking communist indie games, I preferred Night in the Woods which I purchased around the same time as Celeste.

For individual sections of the game, it’s just restarting until you memorize the inputs and move on. You don’t take that with you to apply to other portions of the game. By the end, you’ve mastered the mechanics. The extra challenges are literally just puzzles where you have to memorize inputs. Not very fun.

By all means though guys, don’t let me stop you from just playing Celeste. I don’t pity you. I’ll continue investing my time in better games. You guys can continue to wallow in mediocrity. :-)
