Gg on this absolute banger! 202 is one of the hardest base gaming achievements there is and watching the steams we’re some of the best months in the Celeste community for me. Gg!
6:19 Hearing “Hell Trio” followed by Godhome music just makes me think of NKG, Pure Vessel, and AbsRad waiting for anyone who climbs the Pantheon of Hallownest.
Yeah quite literally, whenever I see videos like this in gaming that explain something, they always have HK music, I see it so much that I keep remembering myself of how good the HK music is
Also I'm stuck at NKG, bcz I did a boss rando and had to do NKG w/ (almost) no abilities, so when I try to beat him with every ability, I just can't bcz I practiced for so long without abilities Edit: I know i yapped but I don't rlly care about this exact situation
if i were to force a headcanon about it, i'd think the mountain gives her an intuition on the correct decisions to make in order to avoid death, which is not to imply she never dies, but that the intuition comes from the countless deaths she faced before the winning run. she just never gets an explicit vision of her deaths until maybe chapter 9, and most of the time she just experiences it _as_ intuition. like she slipped into spikes 50 times and finally on one run she goes "woah, better be extra careful here" and moves on without issue. maybe its reaching, but it allows madeline to feel the mountain's pressure without having an exisential crisis over dying and coming back lmao
incredible video, it was really cool following both your fwg live and seeing your entire journey here, i would also be lying if i said i didnt get atleast a bit emotional by the ending of it big congrats on the achievement and awesome video !
24:57 I recently got Farewell Golden too the other day (July 28th) and I started going through the EXACT same thing. After dying to the Golden Room the day prior, I started seeing Farewell everywhere. I had a customer at work that ordered a drink and they had a shirt with a Mountain on it that said “SUMMIT” in all caps and I felt like I was going insane. It wasn’t Celeste mountain, but still. Congrats on 202 and amazing video mate. Shoutouts to Sully for making it in the video too, he’s a great friend of mine
Using glitchy effects to subtly hint at the beast of fwg throughout the start of the video was great. Really captured the foreboding feeling as my berry count climbed towards 201
Boy, Idk what this video is about, but if you're trying farewell's golden berry and you actually make it then you're a true gamer, getting the golden berries in Celeste is honestly insane Edit: Respect bro, I can't believe you have less than 100k subs, this video quality, is insane
Congrats! I remember spending weeks on Farewell golden, playing on a Switch with joy-con drift with terrible lag spikes ahaha. Dying with the moon berry was actual pain, but got there in the end :)
farewell golden was already incredibly difficult with a good pc with modded and everything, i cant imagine doing it on a switch, thats crazy impressive
@@BurstVessels Speedrunning on Switch is tough, as you don't have Splitsave and other features, but I can take a Switch to uni, so its the easiest option for me. :)
@@calebp6114 I was doing it on switch but my grip-case broke and it's just not comfortable w/o it on a platformer so I switched to Xbox. Also wanted proof that I had done it; I realize that it shows it on your switch file but Im gonna show-off once I get some of the harder cheevos. Might start one on Steam too, honestly this game is good. Can't believe it took me till now to play it, I was(and am) addicted to Hollow Knight and found that during COVID. I had seen clips of it but it's not well advertised anymore(maybe since everyone who likes platformers played it), I got it because it finally went on sale on Nintendo. I used to love Super Meat Boy back in the day and I've beaten every level including dark world for everything except cotton alley(roughly equivalent to farewell), beaten main game on M/K, and gotten quite a few of the deathless achievements so Celeste has scratched an itch no other games have in a long time, and the dash and other mechanics take it above SMB, IMO. Not to mention the absolutely stunning art/beautiful story. This game is a true 10/10. For any HK fans: I'm still working on the pantheons but I've done the speed running ones, fool, all dream bosses etc but steel soul is daunting and I can do P1/P2 ezpz but I am terrible at the beast rider fight so most runs end there and I can't practice against sly because I haven't beaten it yet, even though I've done almost every single boss that I've unlocked on radiant. I digress, love this game and the community, I think I'm going to go grind NKG some more, aside from the pantheon exclusive bosses he's the only boss I haven't beaten(gotten him to 25% with magic based build). If you got this far, Much Love 🩵 Keep Climbing 🏔️ and You're Gonna Carry That Weight 👉🏼
I got to 201 and think I'll leave the game to rest. Goldens have been fun, but farewell feels scary with how much time commitment you need to put in it.
@@CoconutMigrating got a pb at DT-14 about 2 or 3 weeks ago, took a small break to enjoy time with friends and am trying to get back into it as of a few days ago, my consistency seems fine and I've got two or three 2 segments by now, so it's going quite well, there's a good chance the "few months" was more accurate of a prediction than I thought.
This video is so good omg. I've been watching other gaming documentaries for a while and been waiting on one of such high quality for celeste, and you've provided that!
@havoc.7401 I tried some more attempts but never really got around to fully grinding it, its something i definitely need to finish at some point, but i simply dont really have the interest to do it these days considering i had already stopped playing celeste when i made the comment.
haha yeah, the first version of this video actually zoomed into that, but it was a bit confusing so i just left it as a fun easter egg for people who pay really good attention :D
@@joseph2922There’s a modded map pack by Monika that adds D-sides. Final Goodbye, the D-side for Farewell, is so long that it has multiple goldens for clearing different segments deathless, and a platinum berry for the whole map. Pretty sure that if she gets it done it’ll be the hardest Celeste challenge ever cleared.
I love how different the experiences can be, I thought 4B golden was extremly chill and was wondering how you did 6A golden in 3 something hours, while i took an 8 hour marathon AFTER learning the chapter. That marathon was the best and worst night of my life. Edit: Also i thought 6B and 7B weren't that hard but im really fucking scared of 8B(currently at 200 berries)
Dude congrats! I could never! I beat Farewell and got a few scattered goldens (I feel very validated that I got stuck on 3A. That made me want to pull my hair out). The thought of going from a 2500 death Farewell to a zero is not something I think I’m capable of taking on anymore with a growing family and a busier lifestyle, but I love watching other people’s journeys through playing games I love. This was so much fun to watch, my guy! Keep that simple spark of enjoying games alive!
Your reaction to beating Farewell golden is the same reaction I had when I beat the third screen of chapter 7 c side today after a 3 year hiatus on this game. Very happy for you! You make me want to somehow attempt the insanity of getting all the golden strawberries, great job man!
This is my second time watching this video and I think it's far from the last. Currently on 190 berries, and I want to one day get the 202. But among the 12 berries that are left, only 2 seem humanly possible to me. Seeing someone pushing their way through this challenge really motivates me. Thanks for this amazing video, and I think I'll see you soon, when my determination fails again. PS : I fail to see how a bunnyhop into a dash right on top of the spike is any easier than the intended wallbounce, but you do you, I'm not the one with the Farewell Golden Berry
Good luck on 202! As you get further they do seem to get impossible more and more, but then after some practice they always seemed to click for me :D Also for the bunnyhop strategy, i cant even remember if it was that much easier, i just started doing it one day and never stopped
OMG, congrats!!!!! What an incredible journey! I just bought this game the other day and reached the summit for the first time. What a rush! I thought to myself "I'd like to 100% this game" and you just showed me what that actually means. I'm gonna do it. Thanks for the awesome video and the inspiration!
Just bought Celeste during the steam summer sale and today finished up all of the C-sides and getting all the achievements in the game minus the golden strawberries. I saw this pop up in my recommended and can’t begin to explain how impressed I am, not only with your skill but also with how well made this video is. Congrats on this achievement (even though I’m a little late to saying it) and you have easily earned yourself a sub, incredible video man!
I'm currently on track to collect all regular strawberries. I don't know if I'll ever be brave and skilled enough to pull off what you did, but I might try doing a few golden berries later on to see if I'm up for the task. Awesome video, GG on your achievement.
Massive respect for the grind and determination to get this outstanding achievement!! I just got the moon berry yesterday and decided goldens were too much for me eventhough I really love the game design and mechanics as well. I also have to say that this video is amazingly edited (no sfx abuse during screen transitions, just the right amount of animation upon appearing or disappearing footage) and the storytelling is excellent too. The quality of this video exceeds the one of a 6k sub channel :)) You have my sub and I hope to see you grow here as well!
fun fact that happened to me: I got 201 berries at 04/01/2023 and then at 03/31/2024, I got the fwg, 202/202! 2024 is a leap year, so yeah, exactly 365 days (1 year) i got 202 strawberries! And besides that, I was surprised when I saw your video because i'm actually doing the same type of video where I share my experience lol, anyways, gg!
Huge congratulation to this enormous success! I've only just recently beaten 7A - Summit, and am currently working on B-Sides, but so far I've absolutely Loved this game to bits. But I know know the feeling this kind of challenge invokes. Based on the amount of Hollow Knight music in this video, I'm guessing you've played that game and fell in love with it's music. Hollow Knight is My favorite game of all time, always wanting to play more of it, so I set myself up to beat it's hardest challenge. I spent close to 1000h practicing to beat Hollow Knights ultimate challenge, the 5th and final pantheon, pantheon of Hallownest, with all bindings active, and the overwhelming rush of adrenaline when I finally, finally managed to achieve that goal will forever be a cherished memory. And I can see the same passion and thrill in this video as I felt practicing for my runs. And honestly, this looks way, way more challenging than P5AB in Hollow knight. This accomplishment is absolutely legendary. What a legend you are.
When I looked at the thumbnail I saw a person with large pink hair looking at the sky with a golden pixelated crown shining above. The first thing I thought was "Technoblade never dies"
I recently came back to Celeste and have been working on the easier goldens without even playing farewell yet, so seeing how over half the video is dedicated to it is a great sign of things to come
Incredible video and congrats on the 202 ! You made me feel the same emotions I felt when I got my 202, it’s crazy how similar the struggles are. Honestly impressed you managed to continue with so many recon deaths, I got only 1 death in stubbornness and then none at all and even that one was HARD mentally. Congrats again ! Celeste is the best game!!
This was such a good video I can’t believe your only have 8000 subs you deserve so much more keep these videos coming out and you will gain subs in no time, I know you got me
I have watched the entirety of this video 3 runs. Also your 7b fluke reminded me of hollow knight playthrough where i was trying pantheon 5 and failing then took a month break, came back and first tried it
tbh this vid is probably gonna make me start my 202 grind real soon (after the next SJ GM clear). Absolute props to you for this vid. Absolutely 10/10. Best of luck on any future grinds.
You gamer!! This was such a good video. I'm new to the game currently at 190/202 berries but you've inspired me more than ever to go for fwg! Congratulations on pulling off what few can!
As a super casual player that currently dropped the game for a while even before completing farewell and all b sides. Fwg seems like the absolute peak of a game mastery looking forward to some day getting enough time to grind at least all berries and 100% the game but without any golden. Maybe some day. Absolute amazing video quality and editing nice job man first impression from your channel was very good +1 sub
I subscribed to you because of your indie game videos. I never expected you to do the 202 berry challenge in Celeste. Normally, I had to study for my exams, but the video was so beautiful that once I started it, I couldn't close it. Congratulations on this impressive success. You've earned one of the hardest achievements in gaming!
32:16 holy shit its the wirtual music jokes aside ggs on that massive grind, genuinely inspired me to get back to celeste and get my 190th berry at the very least! fire editing/storytelling too :numbsup:
This is awesome! I'm currently in the middle of the same struggle, stuck at 200 berries gated by 6B. This was a real inspiration and the editing was great! Can't believe how cool and active this community still is even for us late-comers
Amazing video! I missed the first few pacepings because I was on vacation, but I was super happy I was able to be there live for the golden run. I'd even credit you as one of the people who inspired me to finally go for fwg, and I got it! I went for full clear because it didn't seem like too much added difficulty. 17 days of streaming many hours per day. 6 recon deaths, none in fwfw or moon berry! I agree wholeheartedly that the celeste community is one of the best on the internet. Huge congrats on your achievement, and again, amazing video!
yoo, i was there in some of your recon entries! i sadly didnt get to see ur actual clear, as i was very much asleep, but huge congrats on fwfcg aswell!!
You are amazing and inspire me to keep going on my golden runs, also you got farewell golden three days after my birthday lol congratulations on completing the gauntlet 🎉
Great job dude! Even after watching the entire video, i don't think i still can comprehend how huge of a challenge it must have been, the dedication and skill required must have been insane. Once again, good f*cking job 👏
Happy this popped up on my recommended, Celeste is one of my favorite games of all time and I’m happy to see someone find so much enjoyment in it. This video was wonderfully edited and super fun to watch! Congrats on 202!
This is the best celeste video i have ever seen, and one of the best of all youtube. It is a true example of determination and I enjoyed so much seeing you that happy after +110 hours. Congrats for your achievement man, you really deserve it!
loving the summoning salt tracks and the absolute pavlovic response i have to it making me cry _twice over_ aldfhsahdjlsfhfdlsah _hell of an achievement dude, well done_
What a journey. I’m still far off from finishing mine, but it’s encouraging to see someone who started with nothing go all the way to the top. Great video! :D
No way, i watched a couple of your farewell golden streams (when they were during times i could actually watch) and now this came up in my youtube recommended and i havent even been watching celeste
As someone whos been grinding this game and particularly fwg for a long time I just want to say that I am really impressed by your 202 achievement. This may be the singular power source I needed to have the determination and stubbornness to reach new horizons and finally beat and get to say farewell to this golden. Btw sick music
bro i thought this was like a secondary channel or a stolen video or something like that, this is extra quality content, absurdly hardwork in this video. this deserves much more recognition, no way you only have 5k subs. GGs.
Excellent video! Thank you for the ride. May your mental health recover from the months of grind and frustration, and congratulations on the achievement.
congrats on joining the 202 club! I'm personally not a member, but I have a Grandmaster Heart or two under my belt, and it feels great finally reaching that pinnacle of celeste gameplay! I suggest you go for that next!
Contrasts on this incredible achievement!!!!! (my ass couldn't even pass farewell casually lmao) Also great video amazing editing wonderful storytelling and music choice, really hope you find success in this RUclips/Steaming journey!!!!
Really good video! Congratulations on 202, you did an amazing job for it being in only 170 hours. Also, I feel your 6B pain, died to the 2nd to last room 15 times myself after thinking it was gonna be free 🙃
this is actually a very good video, the storytelling is good, the editing is clean, and overall it does a good job keeping me entertained. i started making a series like this on my own, and this video is honestly really motivating for me. congrats on fwg, and keep the good shit up!!!
well, even though im 6 months late, this video is very useful. i eventually plan on doing 114% because i made the fatal error of collecting the 1a golden during my base 100% run (which is still ongoing, im on the last room of 9 though), and this just highlights how painful this’ll be. while celeste 100% has already made me feel all 5 stages of grief 10 times over, things have only just begun. good job on the video, by the way.
Amazing video all around and congrats on the golden! Thank you for sharing your journey. Farewell golden is really a true showcase of sheer determination and skill. I've put the grind aside for about a year now... You might have inspired me to give it another try ;)
incredible video! needs more views! good job on the incredible achievement, I'm on my 2nd play through and this video has inspired me to do 202 berries once and for all!
1 year ago I 100%’d Celeste and decided not to get the goldens because I thought the challenge was too much for me. This video inspired me to give them a shot so I can truly say I 100%’d Celeste for once and for all. What an amazing journey man, congratulations and thank you for sharing such an incredible achievement 🎉🎉
GG the 202 grind truly taught me things about determination and consistency. idk if any game can replicate how it feels to achieve those milestones, heart breaks and successes.
Great job, amazing achievement! 202 is quite a journey and it really pays off. Hopefully the same is true for strawberry jam max% when I eventually get that :| but yea amazing ggs
Incredible video man, I remember doing this absolute gauntlet of challenge too and seeing you go through similar things as I did is really refreshing. You did a great job with the editing too. Earned a sub for sure, keep it up brother.
excellent video. also, incredibly impressive to me that you were able to get all of the golden's in such little time. I've got over 1000 hours in the game and don't think I'd be able to get most of those berries in anywhere near as little time as you did
After I got some goldens in the A-sides, I thought that im done with the game, and then I saw your video, and it gave me insprarion to try and get more and more goldens. Now I got 201 berries and I wont stop till it be 202 and most of it is because of you every time I struggle I go back to this vid, its inspiring me to go back to try again and agian. so thank you for helping me with hard achievement.
Amazing quality of video for such a small channel. And even more amazing gaming achievment! Well done man I bet this video is gonna blow up with the quality :D
Gg on this absolute banger! 202 is one of the hardest base gaming achievements there is and watching the steams we’re some of the best months in the Celeste community for me. Gg!
Thanks speedy, you being in chat made the streams infinitely more enjoyable :))

I thought this video must have had at least 100k views, WHERE ARE THE VIEWS??? Amazing video, deserves more.
14:08 that is not a fluke, thats the power of resting. Like a wise hermit it said "train hard, study well, eat and sleep plenty."
massive congratulations on this absolutely ginormous achievement. would love to see you play strawberry jam
ive played a semi big part of sj, dont know if ill ever do a video on it since there isnt a story there, but yeah its incredible
Just bought Celeste during the steam summer sale and today finished up all of the C-sides and getting all the achievements in the game minus the golden strawberries. I saw this pop up in my recommended and can’t begin to explain how impressed I am, not only with your skill but also with how well made this video is. Congrats on this achievement (even though I’m a little late to saying it) and you have easily earned yourself a sub, incredible video man!
Thank you so much! And congratulations on 100% celeste, thats already a huge achievement :DD
Using the wirtual playlist banger stuff gj!
yuppp, Wirtual music always a banger. although i intended to use a different song for the ending, but that got copyrighted );
I'm currently on track to collect all regular strawberries. I don't know if I'll ever be brave and skilled enough to pull off what you did, but I might try doing a few golden berries later on to see if I'm up for the task. Awesome video, GG on your achievement.
You really did us dirty by teasing farewell the entire video. XD
Massive respect for the grind and determination to get this outstanding achievement!! I just got the moon berry yesterday and decided goldens were too much for me eventhough I really love the game design and mechanics as well.
I also have to say that this video is amazingly edited (no sfx abuse during screen transitions, just the right amount of animation upon appearing or disappearing footage) and the storytelling is excellent too. The quality of this video exceeds the one of a 6k sub channel :))
You have my sub and I hope to see you grow here as well!
Means alot, ty ty! :))
fun fact that happened to me:
I got 201 berries at 04/01/2023
and then at 03/31/2024, I got the fwg, 202/202!
2024 is a leap year, so yeah, exactly 365 days (1 year) i got 202 strawberries!
And besides that, I was surprised when I saw your video because i'm actually doing the same type of video where I share my experience lol, anyways, gg!
haha thats incredible, for me it was about 8 months difference between 7b and farewell
I WAS going to put this video on watch later but for some reason I got hooked at the beginning
Glad I was hooked, Congrats man!!!
19:30 WORLD'S END VALENTINE HOLY SHI
I LOVE WORLD ENDS VALENTINE IT GOES SO HARD!!! also mari pfp
@ IKR IT SLAPSSSS!! also aubery pfp
Huge congratulation to this enormous success! I've only just recently beaten 7A - Summit, and am currently working on B-Sides, but so far I've absolutely Loved this game to bits. But I know know the feeling this kind of challenge invokes.
Based on the amount of Hollow Knight music in this video, I'm guessing you've played that game and fell in love with it's music. Hollow Knight is My favorite game of all time, always wanting to play more of it, so I set myself up to beat it's hardest challenge. I spent close to 1000h practicing to beat Hollow Knights ultimate challenge, the 5th and final pantheon, pantheon of Hallownest, with all bindings active, and the overwhelming rush of adrenaline when I finally, finally managed to achieve that goal will forever be a cherished memory.
And I can see the same passion and thrill in this video as I felt practicing for my runs. And honestly, this looks way, way more challenging than P5AB in Hollow knight.
This accomplishment is absolutely legendary. What a legend you are.
When I looked at the thumbnail I saw a person with large pink hair looking at the sky with a golden pixelated crown shining above.
The first thing I thought was "Technoblade never dies"
i never looked at it that way but now that youve said it i cant unsee it
I recently came back to Celeste and have been working on the easier goldens without even playing farewell yet, so seeing how over half the video is dedicated to it is a great sign of things to come
Have you heard of 202 deathless
I really enjoy everything about this content especially the immaculate music choices with bloodborne and hollow knight
Gd 2.2 reference in thumbnail.
Everything is a gd reference
FIRE IN THE HOLE!!!
Incredible video and congrats on the 202 ! You made me feel the same emotions I felt when I got my 202, it’s crazy how similar the struggles are. Honestly impressed you managed to continue with so many recon deaths, I got only 1 death in stubbornness and then none at all and even that one was HARD mentally. Congrats again ! Celeste is the best game!!
haha thats great to hear, it really is such an incredible journey, congrats to ur 202 aswell!
You’re MAD underrated. I love your editing, and congrats!
This was such a good video I can’t believe your only have 8000 subs you deserve so much more keep these videos coming out and you will gain subs in no time, I know you got me
I have watched the entirety of this video 3 runs. Also your 7b fluke reminded me of hollow knight playthrough where i was trying pantheon 5 and failing then took a month break, came back and first tried it
tbh this vid is probably gonna make me start my 202 grind real soon (after the next SJ GM clear). Absolute props to you for this vid. Absolutely 10/10. Best of luck on any future grinds.
you got this!!
You gamer!! This was such a good video. I'm new to the game currently at 190/202 berries but you've inspired me more than ever to go for fwg! Congratulations on pulling off what few can!
So glad to hear that! Good luck on 202, its a real grind :))
So glad i got to see a portion of your farewell grind. GG 202!
As a super casual player that currently dropped the game for a while even before completing farewell and all b sides. Fwg seems like the absolute peak of a game mastery looking forward to some day getting enough time to grind at least all berries and 100% the game but without any golden. Maybe some day. Absolute amazing video quality and editing nice job man first impression from your channel was very good +1 sub
ty ty, that really means alot!
I subscribed to you because of your indie game videos. I never expected you to do the 202 berry challenge in Celeste. Normally, I had to study for my exams, but the video was so beautiful that once I started it, I couldn't close it. Congratulations on this impressive success. You've earned one of the hardest achievements in gaming!
32:16 holy shit its the wirtual music
jokes aside ggs on that massive grind, genuinely inspired me to get back to celeste and get my 190th berry at the very least! fire editing/storytelling too :numbsup:
is that a trackmania reference!?!?
ty ty haha and good luck on ur golden berries :)
This is awesome! I'm currently in the middle of the same struggle, stuck at 200 berries gated by 6B. This was a real inspiration and the editing was great! Can't believe how cool and active this community still is even for us late-comers
You got this!
Amazing video!
I missed the first few pacepings because I was on vacation, but I was super happy I was able to be there live for the golden run.
I'd even credit you as one of the people who inspired me to finally go for fwg, and I got it!
I went for full clear because it didn't seem like too much added difficulty.
17 days of streaming many hours per day. 6 recon deaths, none in fwfw or moon berry!
I agree wholeheartedly that the celeste community is one of the best on the internet.
Huge congrats on your achievement, and again, amazing video!
yoo, i was there in some of your recon entries!
i sadly didnt get to see ur actual clear, as i was very much asleep, but huge congrats on fwfcg aswell!!
You are amazing and inspire me to keep going on my golden runs, also you got farewell golden three days after my birthday lol congratulations on completing the gauntlet 🎉
Great job dude! Even after watching the entire video, i don't think i still can comprehend how huge of a challenge it must have been, the dedication and skill required must have been insane. Once again, good f*cking job 👏
Means alot!
Happy this popped up on my recommended, Celeste is one of my favorite games of all time and I’m happy to see someone find so much enjoyment in it. This video was wonderfully edited and super fun to watch! Congrats on 202!
Glad you enjoyed :)
This is the best celeste video i have ever seen, and one of the best of all youtube. It is a true example of determination and I enjoyed so much seeing you that happy after +110 hours. Congrats for your achievement man, you really deserve it!
Glad you enjoyed it :))
Dude this guys video quality and overall personality deserves millions of subscribers. Fantastic work.
Appreciate that!
loving the summoning salt tracks and the absolute pavlovic response i have to it making me cry _twice over_ aldfhsahdjlsfhfdlsah _hell of an achievement dude, well done_
haha thanks for the comment, really means alot :)
Excellent video, good quality and storytelling. Hope you have more in the tank for the future !
ty ty!
What a journey. I’m still far off from finishing mine, but it’s encouraging to see someone who started with nothing go all the way to the top. Great video! :D
glad i could inspire, good luck on 202!!
This video was amazing. Im not sure how it ended up in my feed, but your storytelling and editing was great, and i was captivated start to finish!
Glad you enjoyed it!
No way, i watched a couple of your farewell golden streams (when they were during times i could actually watch) and now this came up in my youtube recommended and i havent even been watching celeste
You didnt add the clip of me guessing the cloud room death, probably the best thing ive ever done
Also great video
yooo cheesegod no way! I didnt think id see ur name again!
Glad you enjoyed the video :DD
As someone whos been grinding this game and particularly fwg for a long time I just want to say that I am really impressed by your 202 achievement. This may be the singular power source I needed to have the determination and stubbornness to reach new horizons and finally beat and get to say farewell to this golden. Btw sick music
haha very nice, although im missing the recon checkpoint🤔
Thanks you for doing this video 💕 It encourage me a lot to get farewell golden 🍓 also huge congrats for the 202/202 ✨
glad to hear, and thanks alot!
Bro was like what does a pixelated climbing game need some hard af metal music
Absolutely insane dedication, I expected you to have more subs this is really well made
Seeing this tells me how hard was for RickFernello beats the 202 Deathless run... Congrats man!!! Well done!!
Yeah, rick is so crazy for doing 202 deathless, actually incredible to think about
Dying to Farewell Farewell must be one of the most painful experience of gaming i've had. Good job on 202 !
Congrats man!!!! Absolute unit of a gameplay and great editing, you deserve a lot more recognition. I'll follow you around
thanks alot!
bro i thought this was like a secondary channel or a stolen video or something like that, this is extra quality content, absurdly hardwork in this video. this deserves much more recognition, no way you only have 5k subs. GGs.
that means alot, ty ty!
Never seen one of your videos before but it was pretty good. The quality is great so keep it up :)
That wallbounce at 32:56 kinda terrified me. Congrats!
i heard that from some people haha, although i tested it after and its not actually possible to hit the spinners :)
Excellent video! Thank you for the ride. May your mental health recover from the months of grind and frustration, and congratulations on the achievement.
congrats on joining the 202 club! I'm personally not a member, but I have a Grandmaster Heart or two under my belt, and it feels great finally reaching that pinnacle of celeste gameplay! I suggest you go for that next!
ive done a few myself! i was trying to complete the grandmaster lobby in strawberry jam and got like 14/18 untill i got stuck on solar express haha
Contrasts on this incredible achievement!!!!! (my ass couldn't even pass farewell casually lmao)
Also great video amazing editing wonderful storytelling and music choice, really hope you find success in this RUclips/Steaming journey!!!!
Really good video! Congratulations on 202, you did an amazing job for it being in only 170 hours. Also, I feel your 6B pain, died to the 2nd to last room 15 times myself after thinking it was gonna be free 🙃
this is actually a very good video, the storytelling is good, the editing is clean, and overall it does a good job keeping me entertained. i started making a series like this on my own, and this video is honestly really motivating for me. congrats on fwg, and keep the good shit up!!!
ty ty, that means alot!
12:04 love that tmv watch party on your second monitor
Edit: again at 24:54 I deeply respect you for watching the goat
thinkingmansceleste needs to make an appearance someday
this deserves to have millions of views its super good and entertaining to watch for all of the video!
well, even though im 6 months late, this video is very useful. i eventually plan on doing 114% because i made the fatal error of collecting the 1a golden during my base 100% run (which is still ongoing, im on the last room of 9 though), and this just highlights how painful this’ll be. while celeste 100% has already made me feel all 5 stages of grief 10 times over, things have only just begun. good job on the video, by the way.
good luck!!
Bro I search so much to find quality Celeste content like this, you deserve so much more than 250 views. Keep up the good work.
Appreciate that, i have also been thirsty for quality celeste content haha (:
Amazing video all around and congrats on the golden!
Thank you for sharing your journey. Farewell golden is really a true showcase of sheer determination and skill.
I've put the grind aside for about a year now... You might have inspired me to give it another try ;)
good luck!!
fantastic video and congrats on joining the 202 gang, it's an incredible achievement and you should be proud c:
Thank you so much!!
This video is absolutely awesome, the first half brings me so much nostalgia about 201. GG on farewell golden
incredible video! needs more views! good job on the incredible achievement, I'm on my 2nd play through and this video has inspired me to do 202 berries once and for all!
thank you, really means alot! and good luck on 202 berries, its a real grind :DD
Man, I have so much respect for you. The stubbornness to achieve this feat is unbelievable. The best documentary if seen these days🎉
Glad you enjoyed it!
1 year ago I 100%’d Celeste and decided not to get the goldens because I thought the challenge was too much for me. This video inspired me to give them a shot so I can truly say I 100%’d Celeste for once and for all. What an amazing journey man, congratulations and thank you for sharing such an incredible achievement 🎉🎉
thank you so much!! and good luck on the golden berries! :DD
@@Shilsey thanks bro I’ll try my best tho I haven’t played the game in a year so I’ll need some practice!
And then Shilsey got this run... :D Good job man! I always love to watch the result of insane dedication!
Glad you enjoyed it!
GG the 202 grind truly taught me things about determination and consistency. idk if any game can replicate how it feels to achieve those milestones, heart breaks and successes.
Great job, amazing achievement! 202 is quite a journey and it really pays off. Hopefully the same is true for strawberry jam max% when I eventually get that :|
but yea amazing ggs
Incredible video man, I remember doing this absolute gauntlet of challenge too and seeing you go through similar things as I did is really refreshing. You did a great job with the editing too. Earned a sub for sure, keep it up brother.
Ty ty!
excellent video. also, incredibly impressive to me that you were able to get all of the golden's in such little time. I've got over 1000 hours in the game and don't think I'd be able to get most of those berries in anywhere near as little time as you did
After I got some goldens in the A-sides, I thought that im done with the game, and then I saw your video, and it gave me insprarion to try and get more and more goldens. Now I got 201 berries and I wont stop till it be 202 and most of it is because of you every time I struggle I go back to this vid, its inspiring me to go back to try again and agian. so thank you for helping me with hard achievement.
thats so cool to hear haha, Good luck on 202!!
this is one of my favourite peices of content on youtube rn
That means alot!
Amazing quality of video for such a small channel. And even more amazing gaming achievment!
Well done man I bet this video is gonna blow up with the quality :D
Thanks a ton!
