33:30 you get a guaranteed jetpack thats why I prefer this route when i have no Jetpack :)

Skill issue.

after more than 200 hours in spelunky hd, hoping into spelunky 2 felt like the SAME when i started spelunky hd, after 5 hours i could not surpass the first biome, just like old times, this games are fantastic and frustating

I’ve been playing elden ring, i beat cuphead in a single sitting, I’ve made it to the final two bosses in terraria calamity infernum and beaten deathmode twice, I’m missing around 60 steam achievements in tboi, and this is still the hardest game I have ever played. But while all the other games have made me mad at least once, this one hasn’t. Maybe it’s because the game is rigged against you, maybe it’s the fact that I know with progress I’ll get better, I have no idea, but I just haven’t gotten mad at this game for some reason. Gungeon, isaac, and dead cells all have unlocks, hades and cult of the lamb of permanent upgrades you can buy, but with spelunky, you just have to be good. You can get good items, but they’ll only carry you so far.

26:28 wut

really good video!

Spelunky 2 is a torture device with a touch of gamplay(good)

The normal ending of Spelunky is not even that hard, the issue is the punishment. The game expects you to play with perfect attention, otherwise you will just get instakilled by the most random stuff. It does not matter how good you are, maintaining perfect execution and attention trough a whole run is impossible. At some point you will just look in the wrong direction and you'll die out of nowhere. It ends up boiling down to luck.

35:50 it wasn’t the coffin it was the hired helps corpse

I think spelunky 1 looks far better than 2 visually

8:00 you can actually edit the speech boxes in the HUD settings

26:20 tide pool jump scare

35:49 that wasn't the coffin, you shot the body

12:50 You can instead use the cape(and various other methods such as climbing gloves, the hoverpack, and turkeys) to descend slowly to the spikes, saving lots of resources, in case you didn't know. Happy Spelunking =)

I genuinely don’t understand how some people think patho1 is harder than patho2. I was fighting for my LIFE in pathologic 2 it’s literally one of the worst(and most fun) game experience I’ve ever had, while in pathologic 1, people literally throw money at you, and I’ve always had enough time to complete all the quests plus even the fights are easier.

Of course Im Bekinski fan, of course Im psychologically masochistic

The thru the walls reference is so out of nowhere and spot on. I bet the spelunkt and death grips fan base have decent crossover

man tide pool is amazing u crazy

Lol of course after beating it a lot of times and at SL1 the early bosses are going to be easy for you. They are not meant for experienced players to beat, they're supposed to be just that, early bosses with predictable patters that teach the basics of this game. I've gotta say though, that I really dislike early game DS3. The areas(leaving aside the Cathedral of the Deep) are pretty forgetable and bland. It feels like a pararell with Bloodborne. In DS3 you have a lot of option for weapons early game but the areas are pretty forgetable while on Bloodborne you don't have too many weapons but the combat is so fast and the starting area is one of the best in the game.

Every death is fair and your fault yeah right i have 10 clips of stuff happening and there was nothing i could do about it like a frog activated a trap i went down to kill it i died from the trap even tho it was activated

mostly agree about tidepool but the one thing i LOVE about it is the visuals, the colourpallet is just so pretty and light, in a landscape where all water levels in games go for the same dark blue designs, having this lush, colourful coral reef design is SUCH a breathe of fresh air

this morning i got a run to babylon and everything was going so perfectly well, i lost my ankh due to a mistake that was mostly my fault, then i lost the run entirely because on of the yellow orbs spawned in directly on a UFO which then shot down onto me at light speed and one shot me cool

yeah my only big problem in this game is the spike in difficulty at volcona dwelling is relativley easy, along with ice cave and tide pool, but litterally every single time i die in volcona its to a one hit kill... thats kind dumb for it being the second world which is followed by 2 easy ones (then babylon which i think is pretty well balanced [most of the time])

my favorite game, Mop

pathologic 1 is so piss easy at times especially compared to p2, at least for me. i think i prefer many p1 character designs, the p1 soundtrack, p1s vibes, and the overall story of p1 more. but p2 is still amazing in all of those departments, and p2 has much better gameplay in nearly every way.

I really hate how cultish some, seemingly a lot, of Fromsoft fans have become. You literally cannot criticize this game at all in any way without being told you are just bad, to "git gud" and how the game is perfect because it's hard. I saw one guy say that he actively decided to dismiss all criticism of the game because 1 time he saw 1 guy say 1 stupid thing and therefore all criticism is invalid. I asked him if he thought Fromsoft was perfect and above flaw and he told me he wouldn't answer because it was a bad faith question.

u actually can get stuck

Saburov only keep you in jail until certain time. If you choose the time to turn in properly, you will waste very little time spending in the jail. In jail, you are safe from the mob and you get to rest. This is the only bed in Haruspex's route that can only be used once. A place to rest is not easy to find. Saburov is obliged to feed you while you are arrested. ....Just sayin'.

And yet, even with all its flaws, 10million + people went to watch the shadow of the erdtree teaser trailer. Despite its flaws Elden Ring is still a fun game.

12:51 why place a bomb when u have cape

I think the hardest games most people haven't heard of are: La mulana 1 La mulana 2 and World of Horror. A runner up is Diablo 2 Lod on hell. I want a la mulana 3. Also the upcoming dlc for Elden ring might be hard but I don't have a time machine nor is it June 21st yet.

The regular compass doesn’t work in cosmic ocean so you need the Alien compass for that

With the web gun you can jump in the webs you can make so you can scale up a wall with the web gun

100% the hardest game I ever played.. and I absolutely love it. It’s a perfectly crafted game imo but you have to sink a LOT of time into it to get good. There are so many things to think about as you play, precise movements and whip attacks, where to place your items and where/when you can move, what clever exploit you can use to easily beat a boss or get past a level.. and the list goes on. This game is extremely difficult but imo that’s what makes it fun and addictive. The difficulty makes it so rewarding to leave a level with good equipment, lots of health, and lots of bombs.

The mines are definitely easier

You forgot Elden Beast on unique 1 time encounters Thanks for the video! :)

Dood your fucking hilarious it’s upsetting you haven’t uploaded In a year or have a twitch channel

I think royal jelly being given after kappala is a good move. By that point you probably have a good number of the basic items it would give and bombs. You'd also probably have a good number of health but some sources chunk your health down by 10 and you can still get instakilled so it's not like your invincible even with 99 health

I have never heard of Dark Souls 3 being described as clunky and I have never once thought to myself that it was clunky of all things that I have ever thought about it that is not even close

I wish It had more of the stuff from Dark Souls 2 in it and even from the original Dark Souls like instead of stripping things to a more basic simpler format they might have even added or at least kept it the same but I feel the same way I absolutely love Dark Souls 3 but at the same time I wish it wasn't as stripped down feeling

Felt exactly like this. Can do Hell Run eyes closed, but Spelunky 2 was bs.

55:52 "left mouse button" 💀💀💀

This is ez S teir game along with Spelunky hd

In spelunky hd i died over 5130 times i think i have over 1000 hours played

This game is easy!

Dude you missed whole swathes of the game! Your analysis is pretty sound, but yeah, maybe you should do a update and do smouldering lake, the ancient king’s antechamber, the second roof area attached to the lift to the undead sniper and ‘nothing else’ and so on…. Also a lot of these comments read like bots, which is really odd (and not very kosher) though I get it, it’s now a very crowded genre: long retrospectives of these amazing games are becoming more and more common. Anyway, good luck with your channel mate. :)

It took me one year to reach cosmic 😭

26:22 jumpscare

None of you accurately diagnose the problem with Elden Ring or Fromsoftware. The actual problem is the combat is shit. Not just outdated but repetitive shit. Elden ring just exposed that. Great combat translates to any design. Fromsoftware is not good at combat which is why they used tighter areas to hide the bad combat. Get in a big open free area and its jarring how restrictive the combat really is.

18:02 Tip I found out by accident on those annoying mosquitos: you can duck and they will pass over you, leaving you unharmed!
