    I would just like to add
    If you love Hexagon Force you’re probably in the majority here. I’m not afraid to voice unpopular opinions not because I like to be different but purely to spark a discussion in the comments about how everyone else feels about something I report on
    Thanks for 35,000 subs and the kind words across all of social media. I love you all

    IMO the simple asymmetrical dual was the best possible way to introduce the dual mode, and the two different dual segments in the level really help introduce the mode. Making anything more complex could be extremely confusing for players learning the dual for the first time, and the way the dual was introduced was perfect, allowing for players to experiment with unique ideas by themselves, and add complexity on their own.

    1.8 can be summarized to "Dual portal" that's it 😅 also being an update that came out very quickly and also ended really fast 1.8 was a 3 months update, people didn't made many levels in 1.8 actually.

  • @ThiefOfTheMoon-ui7mq
    @ThiefOfTheMoon-ui7mq 4 месяца назад +3

    I personally really like hexagon force. The orb click part is unique and something we haven’t often seen in the main levels, and it teaches a skill that is very relavent to the game, chaining orb timings. Even if I didn’t play during 1.8, I still see it as a large and important update, but the reason that people remember 1.9, 2.0, and 2.1 more is imo because they defined the game. Thats just my two cents tho.

    Bro in the levels section, you completely forgot Deadly Clubstep, another IIINePtunEIII level that is extremely important to GD history and was created in 1.8. It solidified the fall of AeonAir as the best Geometry Dash player and let a new rising star "Riot" to shine as the best Geometry Dash player of all time as Riot managed to defeat the most iconic hell levels of all time and Deadly Clubstep proved that Riot had potential. (Even though Riot was not the first player to beat deadly clubstep, Rek3dge was, he was the first player to beat it on camera and on livestream so it counts :P)

    ngl I feel like part of what makes 1.8 forgettable is that it feels like a sort of warm-up to 1.9. I see some aesthetic similarities between the decorations added in 1.8 and ones added in 1.9, which means there isn't that huge a leap between hexagon force and blast processing visually (I think? tho compared to 1.7 and 2.0 the leap is a lot smaller for 1.9). 1.9 was also the bigger, longer update of the two with some of the most iconic levels in GD history which adds to that.
