I actually really enjoyed how you structured this video. Going on small tangents like when you talked about sohn0924 really helped to break it up for me, idk I just really liked it. Banger video dude

Bicycle is such an underrated level. From my experience, it's incredibly fun for its time, and deserves a lot more attention. There's one blind triple spike about halfway through which can be quite annoying, but other than that, I loved it. Also a correction: XYZ Infinity wasn't necessarily buffed recently. According to the creator, it was given a balance update in order to make it more tolerable. Though I haven't played the update, so I can't really say more than that. EDIT: So it's not a correction after all - his idea of balancing was buffing the easy parts and leaving the hard parts alone. Well... I was half right, I guess.

[@Cobgd]

Instead of balancing it he just buffed all the easy parts lol

[@TViewier]

If the way you balance a hard level is to buff the easy parts, that might be a bad sign.

the reason all of these levels had a single letter as the name was because of a bug that didnt let you type more than 1 letter, it was fixed in 1.2 i think and it was only on android (or for atleast my device)

[@proxyrhine]

The reason why old levels have one letter names is because on some devices you for some reason cant name a level thats more than 1 character long. I believe this was fixed in 1.2-1.3 though

So good to see someone cover the true history of the hardest achievements- no hacked top 1s, unrated levels included, completions from players that were unfairly banned (sunix etc...) Glad you filled the gap in GD history coontent :) Great video!

[@nvs0p]

7:19 he said basically leaked the hardest as of the end of 2023, most likely

[@72-d]

25:22 That sync tho!

[@iso6628]

This made me remember a dream I had of someone verifying a level by the name of Lumin which from my memory of the dream had a harder ball part than wave part being at 4× speed with tight spaces and no room for error at all with orbs and mirror portals in every inconvenient place possible in the ball sections. The wave sections looked like your average extreme demon wave part from what memory I have of the dream.

[@PaulKarras]

The evolution of difficulty in this game is astounding. I'm amazed at how much the skill ceiling can be pushed over time.

[@RenardioMFG]

Corrections: 2:50 Stars weren't added until 1.3, so he had made a "harder" rated level and wanted to make an "insane" rated level 18:46 The Hell Zone is one of the few levels Cyclic actually did complete legit, well, at least that's what he says 21:28 Not really a correction, but I never see anyone point this out so imma do it, Meffewe got 98% on a buffed version 23:08 The version that Kugel and Sunix grinded on was Death Corridor Z, the original version is pretty much humanly impossible 24:56 Being the biggest remake of Bloodbath* 25:59 It IS the most viewed verification, at least I think, says so on google and imma believe my sources lol 30:42 It never did place #1 but it was recently swapped with Tartarus, so it technically was top 1 at the time 32:52 He more or so dropped it to focus more on content creation (i.e. the extreme demon alphabet) 34:27 Pronounced pack-o, not pack-way All problems I noticed

[@KeiGeri0406]

Thanks!

[@quirkypoint]

I find it quite crazy how Bloodbath's verification isn't the most viewed one anymore, probably has to do with the fact that it was unavailable for a few years lol

[@IkukGD]

[@lilysamvelian9970]

[@adteyk9359]

Great video Cob! A well-researched video with a very good quality leading to 36 minutes of pure entertainment. That being said, i wanna say some things: 1- You forgot SIMG FACTORIAL 5, wich was probably the hardest level ever beaten after Bizarre Milestone and before PG Clubstep. The true difficulty of the level requires a bit of especulation as it has since been nerfed. 2-Diabolic Clubstep was possibly top 1 when verified but idk if it's harder than oblivion. It was verified in September 2021. 3-SWI was top 1 before Oblivion and it was never placed above Tartarus until May 10th this year, so it never actually got its top 1 spot. Other than that, incredible work Cob, you outdid yourself with this video! ❤️

[@Cobgd]

First two turned out to not be top 1 lol but thank you

[@adteyk9359]

@@Cobgd ok I didn't really know because SIMG Factorial 5 was nerfed afterwards and Diabolic Clubstep was never rated

To think that demon park was the hardest level, and now it is sooo easy, truly shows how far we have come in the past 10 years.

[@ijlal0259]

8:35 perfect transition

[@gagarious]

"demon park is now considered an easy demon, while extreme park is categorized as a hard demon, which is insane" Throw somewhere the word "medium", so there could be easy, medium, hard, insane and extreme
