raocow's talkhaus

If he thinks this level is long, he's going to have a meltdown when he gets to Luna.

"Demo's Souls... by Shaman. Your name is very appropriate for this stage!"

Haha.

And how did I miss that this stage was a Demon's/Dark Souls reference back when raocow LP'ed it!?
...or did I not and I just forgot this stage existed?

Good job, raocow. This is not an easy game to 100%.


The ending was in fact a bit different, actually, and you skipped over it.

On purpose this time, but still.

Yeah, Patience is without doubt the worst level in the game. It's lazily designed, it's tedious, it's not fun, it's completely centered around the worst level gimmick...

21 degrees... warm...? 21 degrees is not even room temperature.

Let's see, if I convert to Celsius, the past few days... Yeah, we've broken 30 around here. You Canadians are weird.

I'll just go ahead and say this now: The End has a Glitch Level, Cotton Alley does not.

So, if you're planning on true 100%-ing the game, be aware of that.

And raocow has obtained The Evil Bandage!

Personally, I call that the toughest bandage in the game, so congrats Mr the Cow!

Yeah, I just cheesed that level with a double-jumper. For some reason I'm really bad at dealing with those platforms.

At this point you could as well replace me with a bot that randomly says "Naija can break this level", but yes, Naija can dash underneath the Alabaster repulsor. So can Meat Boy if you jump in just the right way. raocow had the right idea when he tried but was just a pixel or two too high.

Don't want to spoil Mr. the Cow, so...

Ugh, that bandage. There's only one bandage in the game I think is harder to obtain than that one. I just ended up waiting for the platform to loop back around to the beginning. Takes forever, but I just never could get the speed necessary to beat it normally. Also, that was a glitch death. Sometime...

He's yelling "WAAAAAAARP ZOOOOOOOONNEEEEE!"

Yeah, loading icon.

I am fairly certain the name of the level "Char" is meant to pronounced in the French manner.

Because there is red lava moving three times faster than in the original level.

If that was how they were intended, it was a very stupid design decision. If the intent truly was to tell players "Don't try this yet, you're not ready", then maybe... I don't know, maybe it shouldn't have been unlockable so early? The Glitch Worlds are fairly difficult. Nothing you can't ...

Exactly. Most levels in this game, if you fail, you can immediately retry again. The flow of gameplay is pretty much uninterrupted. The glitch worlds force you back to the level select every three deaths, and force you to sit through loading screens for no reason to try again. For the warp zones, th...

Not over them, but it is possible to jump between them.

Unless I am very mistaken, I think you should not have as much trouble with the upcoming levels. The vertical conveyors pretty much disappear.

Of all the obstacles in this game, I did not expect raocow to get tripped up so hard by vertical conveyor launchers.

Yeah, they're tricky at first, but once you get used to the mechanics, they are so much fun.

Maybe there are a couple horrible ones in dark Rapture/The End/Cotton Alley, but based on the 7/8ths of the game that I've seen, there's nothing he can't handle. People overhype the difficulty of Dark Rapture more than any other part of the game I've seen. If you're good enough to get through Cotto...

IWBTG is at least honest about that. I don't believe Kayin has ever tried to claim that it's a "fair" game.

I've never seen anyone do Pig Latin the "normal" way, except for PsychedelicSA, who did it for S&G. I am somewhat embarrassed to admit that the easy way to do Pig Latin didn't even occur to me, so I did it the normal way. :oops: Anyway, some dude in the Youtube comments described I th...

Hopefully the post game won't kill it for raocow, like most postgames do. Actually the post-game has some legitimately fun levels in it, and for the most part isn't any more demanding than you'd expect this game's postgame to be. I think raocow should enjoy it, though unless he does some of the Dar...

I really like The End, actually. It's probably my favorite world.

No silly gimmicks, just pure platforming. And awesome music.

So today raocow's problem was not understanding the concept of "kiting" those giant fly things and making them go where you want them to go before attempting precise jumps. The time requirements on stages with them tend to be generous because I think Team Meat expected you to spend a bit o...

What is that "Hai Mari" thing he keeps mentioning?

My pathetically limited Japanese knowledge is not letting me get that from context.
