Should Your Boyfriend Play Celeste, Dead Cells, and Hollow Knight?

Ойындар

This year my boyfriend played three incredible indie games: Celeste, Dead Cells, and Hollow Knight. That doesn't mean they were always a joy to watch. Check out my review and what I think of the indie game industry.

    It actually encapsulates how I was able to beat God Tamer. I got pulverized by her and her beast twice, and the third time I tried trial of the fool, I was in the zone. Idk what it was, but something clicked. My brain was instantly predicting both the rider and the beasts movements, seeing where each would land, where the safe spot is, okay, it bounced, If I dash now it should land right in front of me, then cyclone slash, rider incoming, other sude now, and so on. I not only was able to dodge the boss, but I understood the boss, and beaten him by dancing around its moveset. Honestly, the more I thought hollow knight as a dance, the better I got. There is a certain rythm every boss moves in or attacks, and they all include the knights current location.

    The moment I fell in love with Hollow Knight was when I finally entered the City of Tears. I kept seeing these signs pointing me towards what looked like a city. The entire game up to that point was leading you towards this one mysterious location and I was determined to find this location. When I finally got there, after braving so many obstacles and challenges, I stepped onto an elevator, watched it descend, and a vocal melody began to play with the soft pattering of rain. Then, the name appeared on the screen: The City of Tears. The music begins to swell into the operatic chorus. I walked off the elevator and saw the beautiful backdrops behind me. That was the moment I fell in love.

    As a gaming husband with a wife who also watches me play, while I love Dead Cells as a gamer, I can completely understand that it'd be a terrible watch from the couch. Celeste was great, anxiety inducing, but my wife has anxiety and depression, and while I already dealt with it well enough, Celeste definitely helped me understand it a bit more. Hollow Knight was amazing, if it felt a bit drab, dreary, and depressing from time to time, but I feel like that was also a big intent of certain parts of the game, so I refuse to detract any points from it.

    I'm really late to the party but this was great. I played Celeste and Hollow Knight in 2018 after exiting a 5+ year relationship. Games serve as a great link for me when it comes to accessing the moods and experiences associated with different periods of time in my life. Most of my appreciation for gaming in the past 5 years has come from Indie projects and Nintendo. At the end when you guys ask wth is going on with AAA studios; I wonder the same. But yeah. I don't know how you manage to fit reviews and jokes in there and get through the video with such nice flow; but I suppose that comes with editing experience from the BF. I am always holding out on checking out popular channels because so many are too loud for me; but checking this out finally -- I'm glad I did. Excellent video.

    Hollow Knight is the best! I want a 10-hour compilation of the sounds the Grubs make. OMG, so cute!!!! And everything else is just spot on, the setting, the art, the soundtrack, gameplay, everything.

    I agree that backseat gaming with some indie platformers can be very jarring with all the effects happening that one is not intimately familiar with.

    @himanshu sage Yes! The girlfriend is just a natural entertainer. Her writing, her tone of voice, and her delivery are impeccable. And of course, the video production is top-notch! Some people complain that she probably gets help making the videos. I say - who cares?! They do a great job! That's all that matters.

    You guys really hit a jackpot with this channel, it’s so unique, funny, and special. I really enjoy every one of your videos. Each review you guys do is honestly more exciting than any other video game review because yes it’s not about a game it’s about how it is watching it, but the different perspective definitely gives me a grand insight to the game! Good job guys!

    jamsoup I’m not doubting whether or not she plays the games, I just like the perspective shift she gives us as viewers. It’s something different, and just shows us what it’s like to watch a video game instead of play it, because if a game is fun to watch it might not always be fun to play, etc.
