    Keith (and other people reading this), I want you to know that it's ok if you do anything that you regret, I've seen people clamour about LPers doing the wrong thing when in fact, the game accounts for it.
    Also, I do recommend turning on Remix, but maybe this is a little late, I think you've recorded this much in advance.

      @B_Skizzle 3 วันที่ผ่านมา +8

      If it helps, I also find difficult games intimidating and I adore Rain World. Unlike something like Dark Souls, a lot of the difficulty comes from knowledge rather than execution. It also has a bunch of minor and major assist options. You can find them in the Remix menu.

    @knowledgeacquirer2931 3 วันที่ผ่านมา +7

    I'm not sure what the issue was with getting up in Drainage System. It's just climbing up the ledges like you were doing so far (especially with the first one you already climbed twice before, at 1:38:01). The animation even shows you briefly going up but you're simply not following through.

    • @knowledgeacquirer2931

      @@buttonasas Sorry, I mean't in beta testing and stuff like that, the people who tested it were so confused and annoyed that they didn't know what they were supposed to do so the devs (reluctantly) added "iggy" as a guide. Should've clarified that.
      Edit: or at least thats what I heard about when first getting into the game and at that time I don't remember if I checked more than 2 sources to see if it actually happened. I'll put something here if I find the source. Yeah, sorry I remember that being a thing but I can definitely see myself just hopping onto that when I first started playing a while ago so im still unsure if it happened. If someone has an actual source disproving this id like to see it but honestly with how Rainworld and looking up rainworld works the only thing I was able to find was people asking questions about iggy and honestly I'm kinda glad for the theory crafting instead of the terrible stuff you find when you search for info on other games.

    • @buttonasas
      @buttonasas วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      ​@@caiosantana169 sorry. I will elaborate:
      a big appeal of this channel is how Keith plays the games "blind" - having as little prior knowledge as possible and not looking at guides, wikis, tips or anything like that and simply experiencing it as it is.
      It's a unique experience to watch a Let's Play like this, both when you already know the game but also when you don't and are just going along with the ride, learning with Keith.
      "backseating" ruins this experience by pointing out what should be done or should have been done whereas "spoilers" ruin it by providing any info that Keith didn't realise himself (even if _you_ saw it on the video and realised it)
      I say "ruined" but it's, of course, a hyperbole, but you never know what sort of thing you might slip when explaining something about the game that would've been a great revelation later
      even the simple stuff: for example, I take great joy in hearing what the Let's Play'er names the creatures so if you mention a creature's name - you've ruined that moment _for me._ "lizard" is mostly fine - but it's fun when I hear them being called "salamanders" or some people even give them names based on colour and it would be too sad if they all get called just "lizard"
      *TL;DR:* I disliked your comment because you provided information Keith didn't say out loud and I sort of mocked you (sorry) for saying "no spoilers" before commenting exactly what I consider a "spoiler"
      P.S. This Let's Play got prerecorded way in advance but it's not just Keith that can get backseated/spoiled - everyone watching along who doesn't know Rain World can get spoiled by comments and their watching experience degraded
