So yeah this kinda came out of nowhere. I would’ve made a highlights vid for it but I didn’t record most of my time playing this and I genuinely can’t be asked to make highlights content at the moment so yeah. Now that I mention it I guess I should probably also tell y’all that I’m unfortunately not making the ethereal artifice rewind video because I genuinely do not have the motivation I need to make a good video that will be expected for a video that’s supposed to be so important for me and this channel. Anyway about the level…
This level somehow manages to be one of the most fun yet infuriating levels I have ever played. The base gameplay is incredible, the song is awesome and the way it's represented with deco and visual sync is phenomenal, especially for its time. But it also has a lot of chokepoints. And a lot of them are towards the middle of the level which for a level of this length can be really frustrating. Especially paired with the fact that there is always the chance of just dying somewhere really stupid instead which sucks. Something else that didn’t help was my progress fluke to 85% from 53% because it took days to get back there. Thankfully I only had around 5 ending deaths though which considering how nerve-wracking this level is is actually really good.
Anyway, thanks for watching even though this is incredibly far from my best content on this channel and hopefully the next video will actually be something worth watching.
