If you're playing the game you're probably already aware of what you're getting yourself into. Plus all of the Nintendo stuff is pretty silly and makes it bearable. Finally beating a really hard section is incredibly satisfying. Edit: Also the game requires a lot of twitch reflexes which is real difficulty. I agree, plus, when you die it's not a big deal since you can respawn very quickly without even having to wait for the game over screen to appear, so it's actually very friendly to restarting. Play games like Gradius 3 arcade version---that game is just impossible. I don't think I've ever beaten level 3. | ||

Yeah even if you're mechanically terrible like me, you just have to grind the iwbtX games until you know how to move and what happens. The very definition of artificial difficulty. | ||

I mean, at some point it becomes questionable whether IWBTG is actually more difficult than other platformers once you pass the point of memorizing all the gimmicks that exist to kill you the first time through but are straightforward to avoid once you remember it's there. It's still obviously difficult, but the difficulty relative to other platformers after you remember all the "fuck you" stuff is pretty questionable to me. | ||

Games that are actually difficult are ones where you know the exact layout and backend yet still can't complete it. Chess is incredibly difficult but the rules are straightforward and transparent. | ||

It's gut-wrenching, heart breaking, and depressing, but it's a bitter pill. | ||

Try as you might, you can't theorycraft IWBTG's difficulty. | ||

He's wearing a cooking apron and talking about the maths and theory in various games. Maybe draws on a chalkboard a little bit. | ||
