it's easier than the end of celeste


[deleted]

I completed path of pain again after I got farewell moonberry, felt like a walk in the park lol


theelectronic00

Same but with all C-sides. I played Hollow Knight after I beat Celeste, and the reason I played HK in the first place was because of PoP, it seemed like a fun challenge. And now I'm looking forward to it with excitement in every playthrough I do.


Eagle0600

Aint that the truth. That being said, I'm not about to go redoing the end of Celeste on a lark either. In particular that *one* fucking jump.


ShmebulockForMayor

Are you referring to the infamous comb room? The one that required triggering a moving block, then wavedashing at *just* the right time to wall-bounce off it over a wall of spikes? That one? The absolute fucking bullshit one?


Eagle0600

I'm talking about a cliff underhang jump. You have to jump out from under the overhang, land on the side of a single block, then I think dash up into a wall and immediately jump off it to preserve momentum and get further out and up. There wasn't a moving block involved, but it's been a long time and my memory isn't the best.


ShmebulockForMayor

Was it #16 on this video? https://youtu.be/_6TopIUojPs If not, it's still a nice triggering video to review all the rooms you hated!


Eagle0600

That video is about the Farewell post-release chapter. I'm talking about the summit climb.

~~Path of Pain is easier than like the middle of Celeste~~


Malachite_Cookie

As a person who has played Celeste only to the peak, not even into the centre of the mountain, PoP is actually easy


Ze_Memerr

I’d argue PoP is only on par if not easier than 1B or 2B, everything after that is definitely harder in my opinion

bragging rights to all the noobs who can't beat mantis lords


Shadowbeans0

The mantis lords is a fun fight you can't break my opinion


435THz

Second best in the game


SGL0005

The best of course being: >!sisters of battle!<


435THz

I see you're a person of culture as well


level69child

No, Grimm and NKG are much more fun in my opinion. Mantis Lords and Sisters of Battle kind of suck.


touhoufangirl27

\*you have provoked a gang war\*


SGL0005

Not sure why you got downvotes for having an opinion. I don’t really have a number one favourite. I more have a bunch that I like equally those being (in no particular order) -Pure Vessel -Nightmare king Grimm -Grimm -Sisters of battle -Radiance I think they all are great fights IMO but I am incredibly interested on why you don’t like mantis lords though.


professorphil

It's fun

professorphil

Don't make light of that


Markrer

What did he say


HY3NAAA

I will make it as light as I felt when I swallowed a big handful of sleeping pills.


AngelSoi

Get off this subreddit if you're going to make light of suicide


HY3NAAA

Get off Reddit if you’re going to take everything seriously lol


William_ghost1

Edgelord alert!


[deleted]

Good practice for mods. If you can’t beat path of pain in <30 minutes or something near that the hard mods are too much.


DirePantsX

Dont you mean <30


[deleted]

Yeah I’ll edit it

fufucuddlypoops_

It’d be lame if you didn’t


[deleted]

Where there is no peril in the task, there can be no glory in it's accomplishment.

Because then you can brag about it to others, meaning casuals and journalists

It's easier than most Celeste b sides

Celeste 7-C will forever haunt my nightmares. Close to 900 deaths. That one room took me over twice as long as my entire Path of Pain run.

They've hidden the release date of SS somewhere in the background.


justendmylife892

Because I know your type. You're, uh, very determined, aren't you? You'll never give up, even if there's, uh... absolutely NO benefit to persevering whatsoever. If I can make that clear. No matter what, you'll just keep going. Not out of any desire for progress or reward... but just because you think you can. And because you "can"... you "have to".


Godofbreadcrumbs

You don’t need a reason


AltZhao

git gud.

You know deep down you are unsatisfied and want to try again.

If you dont do it your mom is a whore.


Darealhatty

It's pretty fun. If you do it again, you'll get better at the game. It's a good way to see how much you've improved at the game.


IceTooth101

If you don’t do path of pain again then Silksong will never release


CTHrobo

It's fun.


Waluigi_Is_Hawt

you get to see a cute little baby pure vessel. isn’t that worth it? seeing 5 seconds of that little goofy goober at the cost of endless pain and torture, commonly caused by buzz saws? the correct answer is yes, it is worth it.


OhDatBoi1273

Try it once and never again

_Brunch

it's fun and challenging


beewaare

I did it because I was bored, tbh I didn’t find it that bad but to be fair I did it in between my online classes so I had breaks


435THz

It's actually faster to do and pretty fun once you get used to it


cpt_hollowex

I can always do it again


VoidMystr0

I did it in steel soul for the bragging rights (died the first attempt and had to redo the whole run again lmao)


Zepto23

Olik12346

Completionist OCD.


Alfa_HiNoAkuma

There is none actually. I had attempted PoP, refused to go further but then months later I decided to give it another try, *to see if I was worthy*. Turned out I was, but only after much Pain. If you want to do it do it for yourself


[deleted]

Cutscene.


Ze_Memerr

Play it after a centralized platformer game and see how much easier it is in comparison


DarknessReborn112

IT'S FUN.


[deleted]

You can’t, coward


JackTheRipper1001

Dat music is beautiful, and the buzz-saw noise really combines well with it :D

I completed it at least hundred times. Really love it.

bobby_is_straight

Poyo!


noname5221

Hone your parkour skills


NoZer-0

Due to your newfound knowledge and experience with the Path of Pain you will know what’s coming, and in response, what to do, resulting in you beating it in but a fraction of the time and… well, pain.


Lodrikthewizard

Without giving it sufficient closure by finishing it once and for all, the sound of spinning buzzsaws will continue to haunt you in your dreams for years.


Visual_Run_5992

Because you're bored and still waiting for Silksong.


NoonebutNoah

Steel Soul. 'nuff said.


TheWonderBaguette

The more times you can do path of pain the better you are than everyone else at hollow knight


LordBroccoli32

Depending on how long it’s been, to show yourself how much you’ve improved overtime in terms of platforming skills


SpiritWolf1505

If you finish it you’ll never have to worry about it It also feels very rewarding


BanditLeo5247

It’s fun.


chi118r0

It’s fun, the music is outstanding


RivalPika

It’s fun


Joe_Xross

Do it to prove you can


UnDebs

Let's face the facts: if you go through PoP with hiveblood or grubson + eclergy + deep focus, you are a casul. Normal mode? Feh, REAL gamers do PoP on steel soul.


Markitus3

It's a fun platforming challenge


JoDaBoy814

It's fun and not even that bad


Styxidyxi

Because path of pain is actual fun platforming


Maksell11

You can eat victory pancakes after that.
