You get used to all the enemies, can dance around them like a goddamn ballerina, and then you add a boss cell and new stuff spawns and its just "Oh my God what the hell is tthhhaaAAAAATTT!!!!" as it eats your face off. And some enemies are just plain unfair. Looking at you Golems.

[@halodragonmaster]

0:30 Here is your answer as someone who has been playing since patch 0.3 It's possible because way back when, before the game went like 1.0 but also still had the boss cells mechanic implemented, the kind people at (game studio formerly known as motion twin) just went: *screw it, you keep your prior data intact, meaning you keep your boss cells that you earned too* however, at the time, the way you got boss cells was from beating the respective bosses in game. Each boss at the time: *the incomplete one* currently known as the concierge, conjunctivius not conjunctivitis, the assassin currently known as the time keeper and the hand of the king who is the hand of the king and one of the last bosses to be implemented before 1.0 is highly likely the reason why more people have the first boss cell than have beaten the hand of the king. The concierge is significantly easier to beat and get to than the himbo at the end of a run.

[@Windette]

For the scrolls that dont have your preferred colour, you should actully put as much stats into one of them instead if more HP, it's not going to make a difference in the later boss cells and legendary weapons will combine your 2 highest stats for it's damage, for example if you have 5 red 17 purple and 2 green, the legendary item would see you as having 22 stats

[@ethanhostetler4007]

So glad Dead Cells is now a thing on this channel. I've been playing it for ages now. So lemme explain the game. You pick a color you really like and stick with cuz god knows this game will let you get away with ONLY beartraps as long as you know how to time a parry or, you know, DODGE. And then some enemy you met in the very beginning levels gains like, six buffs, immortality, an inability to properly telegraph it's attacks to you and ya gotta start all over. So... All in all an awesome game for those with no soul left to worry about trivial things such as that one blueprint you left in a very specific corner for no good reason, other than "because I can always come back to get it later" and suddenly RNG decides let's stick about 50 trash mobs in front of the item you are looking for in every subsequent run. Now from the comment you might assume I'm just harping on the game but the thing is, it's not a bad game. It's cursed. Like, Uganda Knuckles unkilled itself levels of cursed. AND I LOVE IT. (Edit) BTW, this is gonna sound kinda cheesy, whatever sue me, I was raised on dairy (Terrible Pun detected) , deal with it: The game is only hard until it's not. Hey don't look at me like that, I typed it the way I wanted it typed, don't question it. What I mean by "until it's not" is that this game has a certain flow to it. Not exactly a process but rather near predetermined decisions based on RNG that you just sort of learn to roll with. Yes, the game does know you want that Greatsword, and no, it's not giving it to you. Honestly, just pick up an item and see what it does, you would be surprised how well only Beartraps work. It's more of a time thing I guess. So anyways, for those looking to pick up this game, I highly recommend it. There isn't as much of a learning curve as one would think, and any loadout will work if you put enough effort, hope, and whichever of your last few brain cells you are willing to fork over to playing this game. Until I pop into some other comment section uninvited, later and good day!
