      Please consider doing a video of accessible platinum trophies that even a preschooler can unlock them!
      I may need some help in that regard considering I can't even Platinum certain Outright Games titles...

    As someone who obtained the Platinum recently, I can say with ease that this video does a great job getting the point across. It's a huge challenge that demands a lot from the player. It may all seem overwhelming at first, but the satisfaction you get while playing and mastering the complex mechanics is worth it. I've had so much fun with the game and I don't regret starting it whatsoever.
    Coming back to this video now almost feels nostalgic and makes me feel even better about my achievement. I encourage everyone who watched this well put video to give the game a go.

    Saw this video for the first time around November of 2022. The way you presented the Crypt and its ridiculous difficulty has inspired me to give it a try myself. I couldn't believe my ears when you were describing coda.
    I've been hooked ever since. The fast-paced gameplay and simple yet difficult to master enemy designs, it really kept me coming back, even if I just died to the final boss. It's the sort of game where a situation rarely feels out of your control and where every death is an opportunity to reflect. What could've you done better?
    I absolutely love the beat mechanic as well. A rhythm rogue-like is a unique combination I've never seen before and it's very well executed here. It even led me to try some other similar games like BPM: Bullets Per Minute and Metal Hellsinger, with which I've been having a blast.
    Needless to say, after around 300 hours of playtime, i managed to get my first coda clear in, and I'm well on my way to beat lowest of the low.
    Thank you, sincerely, for introducing me to my all time favorite game.

    Tony hawk pro skater 1+2 remake has an insanely hard trophy where you have to get level 100 rank which to obtain you need to beat every single challenge in the game which there are 800+ of them with some of them so difficult you need complete mastery of the game to achieve. The game released 2 years ago and it’s still at 0.1% completion to this day.

    • @Frezyman
      @Frezyman 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    • @Frezyman
      @Frezyman 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@canontheory you do not need to do every challenge in the game to get platinum. So the 22 million challenge is not required. The hardest, if I recall correctly, is a 10 million run bit you can build your own track to get these scores. My PB combo is around 5 million and I got the plat. There is no way I could get 22 million in a run without hundreds of more hours of practice I think. I agree that, de the platinum is very challenging anyway though :) there are some challenging combos that is required to get the platinum. And even if you get all required challenges you still need those exp points that can take 20-40hours to grind out for.

What do you think the best way to grind exp is other than new challenges?

    • @Frezyman
      @Frezyman 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@canontheory my advice would be don't do anything in free run (make sure to get exp points all the time). Other than that, when you are done with all required things and only have level 100 left is to do tons of 2 min runs. It will take you probably 20 hours at least going from level 70-100 even if you use cheats. I did it in 40+ hours probably whitout cheats enjoyed doing high score runs. IIRC you can get 300 xp for each 2 min run

    • @Krauvando
      @Krauvando 2 ปีที่แล้ว +71

      I've done both things on Steam and at some point you can't really compare them since TEIN is pure execution-based while Coda requires constant new assessments even if a run only takes ~10 minutes. Ironically they both took me around the same amount of hours of attempts/practice but I'll give you that the Coda grind was far more enjoyable. Iron God turned me into a worse person :(

    Hi, YT just happened to recommend me this video today. I'd like to share a small piece of personal lore:
    Back in 2017 and 2018 I was studying abroad in the Netherlands and it was the time I managed to complete my Lowest of the Low run on Steam, after >3 months of persistence. By that same time Floriss (whose footage appears in this video and someone I was in touch with) was also grinding the run and managed to pull it off in a matter of days of difference. While chatting and sharing the hype he mentioned that he was Dutch, so I suggested to meet up and have a celebration beer. Which was something that happened the week after and I still keep it as a very special moment of my time abroad. Not many people will share a moment this specific with you and fully understand you. He was an extremely nice person and still one of the best toasts in my life :)

    • @xArchivist

      I'm very glad that we had the opportunity to meet and celebrate in person, as I too found it to be a very special moment. It was nice being able to share the joy and struggle of NecroDancer, as well as talk other things related. Like you said yourself, I don't think there's many ocassions where you can find someone that will share a moment this specific with you and whom can fully understand you. It was a very unique experience. Some amazing conversations over great food and drinks. Not to mention you're a very humble and great person, so all together I enjoyed my time A LOT.
      Even though I haven't seen or spoken to you in quite a while (since we're both busy adults now), this post brought back great memories. And I just wanted to say that whatever you're pursuing in your life, knowing that I wish you all the best and with the right mindset and determination you can achieve anything. But you already know that ;)

    I have about 2500 hours in this game. Love it to bits. I never got the platinum (or all achievements on steam on PC, which has the same achievements as PS trophies) because of the last two trophies and I didn't have the patience to grind for it... I still love playing the game and competing for leaderboards in speed and score categories.
    Recently a serious attempt at All Steam Achievements speedrun was done by a player called Tufwfo. At the time of getting it, he also had about 2500 hours in the game. He got all the achievements in 12 hours, this was including the Amplified DLC which adds a few more achievements and an extra zone (There is also the 13-characters All Characters Run, as opposed to the pre-DLC 9-characters. However, no 13-char low% thankfully. The 9-char is hard enough). Spent the last 2 hours hunting for the three green bats using a character that can see all enemies on the map and resetting over and over (with regular gameplay, you find about 1 green bat roughly every 100 hours).
    Overall it's a really cool run to watch.
    A few players have pushed this even further. There are a handful of players who also completed Coda low%. This game's skill ceiling seems to be endless and frequently I see insane feats achieved by some players. The speedrun and score leaderboards constantly getting improved, even after all these years. And constant new and crazy ways and challenges being shown to be possible

    After almost a year I beat Aria low% but idk how I will do the other characters. Trying Monk low% right now and the farthest I was is Zone 3. And I don't even know how to get started with Bolt, with how fast the game is with her it just makes me thumb hurt. Tried with joy cons, a ps4 knockoff controller, and on keyboard, it's too fast for me on either lol

I really highly recommend it if you have an interest in rhythm games. If you’re the type of trophy hunter that doesn’t want to mar their account then play it on PC or Switch, which is what I play it on. Someday if I feel confident enough I’ll start it up on PS4 but probably only if I can pull off an all characters run. Best I’ve managed so far is making it to the golden lute with Aria on a low % run. I still stand by my previous comment though. The game is balls to the wall hard.

    all the people in the comments saying “well it’s not fun if they made it virtually impossible” are people who have never touched this game in their life. unfairness is the name of the game in crypt of the necrodancer. as said in this video, you can play perfectly and still get fucked over by rng in multiple aspects. it’s a game that is hard at its best and has a nearly infinite skill ceiling at its worst. the game itself is designed to be extremely difficult and unfair, of course it’s going to have the hardest achievements. i have hundreds of hours on this game across multiple platforms and i can say for certain that the game is not for people who rage every time something goes wrong. if you don’t have the mindset of “oh well, let’s try again” when something goes wrong then picking up this game is essentially just self destruction.

    Coda clearer here. Yes coda is completely utterly brutal the coda run alone was 12 minutes but it took me 900 hours to clear the character and shockingly this is on the low end of things most people don't clear coda till the thousands. The double tempo is the hardest aspect by far. If you can do the tempo everything else is significantly easier. Zone 1 is easily the hardest zone on coda taking about 80% of runs simply due to lack of gear and monkeys / bats. If you can clear coda you can do all char low%. All char low% is easier then coda its just a miserable run. There's a reason coda is by far more fun then all char.

    • @Remidyo
      @Remidyo 15 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Fair comparison here from someone who played these games: One of the hardest things you can do in the Spelunky games is completing the Cosmic Ocean in Spelunky 2, a challenge that takes about short of two hours casually in a single run, but it's entirely optional / doesn't actually give you any trophies, in order to 100% Spelunky 2 you just need to reach the Cosmic Ocean level anytime for a diary entry
      Crypt of the NecroDancer has a character that you need to complete for an achievement to be unlocked by completing the game with multiple characters at once, taking about the same time and precision of Cosmic Ocean imo, albeit the games are really different.
      The hardest one can depend on which core game type you are best at, Spelunky is a platform game at it's core, while NecroDancer is a rythmn game. A lot of people aren't good at rythmn games / haven't played them as often to improve, so NecroDancer is likely considered the hardest one. It's also way easier to find reliable guides and strategies for Spelunky 2, in particular on how to make the Cosmic Ocean challenge far more skill based rather than random. The resources for NecroDancer aren't as good afaik comparing them to Spelunky 2
