    It took me over a year to complete Dead Cells. Each time I get close to completing it they release more DLC! I've spent so much time on this roguelike of live, die, repeat, and pain that you all voted on that I'm worried the second I release this there will be a new update. Dead Cells took the indie game scene by storm with it's fluid mechanics and procedurally generated playthroughs. With great soundtrack and near limitless options, this metroidvania adventure is always a fun time (even with the perma-death).
    Let me know what you thought about my Dead Cells review!

      The Hunter's Grenade only boosts stats on the higher difficulties.

That... that might be the breaking point? But, I believe Jirard is a great gamer. Think he can pick up and master the game easy enough.

But as of right now, I've unlocked every item, every rune, every blueprint, beaten every boss without getting hit and only missing some hidden achievements apparently. Thankfully the DLC seems to be this Fall so I'm looking forward to it. Also, this is the first game I ever 100% completed. I've been through every biome, beaten every difficulty available, and found every secret so far.

    Can agree, developed good choice and skill play a huge part. When I reset after a big update a while back, literally was able to clear the normal game route on go number one (when Hand of the King was the final boss) Which is great seeing as my first time ever clearing the boss took more attempts than I wanna think about.

      I played it for the first time for a few days last month too but made an oath to stop playing after the final boss because it was a really addictive video game. It was soaking so much free time I had that I made that oath so I could come back to other games without feeling like I am missing out, so after I did finish the game I stopped playing it.
      Dead Cells has such a great game loop that despite it being my first proper exposure to the rouge-like/rouge-lite genre it sucked it me in like a vacuum. I definitely recommend checking this game out if you are willing to burn a lot of time on an addictive game.

    As a fellow DC completionist I have to give huge respect to anyone who has the dedication to 100% this game. I’ve completed it on PS4, Xbox and Switch and I still find myself going back to it not just for new dlc but because I enjoy the game so much and I’ve played thru it so many times it’s become my go-to game when I don’t feel like playing anything else, somehow one of the hardest indie games has become a chill out almost zen like experience for me. Go figure.

    DeadCells parry system is incredibly strong. you can parry all but 4 attacks in the entire game, even those green bomb flies.
    and the game has this thing where you can pull off parries even when you hit the button a split second too late. so you can parry two attacks coming from both directions if you press the parry/back+parry buttons fast enough. i cannot express how satisfying it is to do this.

Like, you say the only rewards are costumes, but the biggest reward for completing 5 boss cells is in my opinion the new biome and boss and the lore that comes with it. Even after being annoyed at this game because I wasn't able to complete 5 boss cells, it wasn't only satisfying to be done with it later, it was really fun and the "true ending" just felt epic and cool. Even after basically being done with the game, I still play it once in a while because it's just so much fun and the great ending made 5 boss cells just so much worth.
