For three months I've been playing one of the hardest games I've ever played. I Wanna Be The Boshy (You can download it for free from solgryn.org. Well... I say free, but you will pay in Sanity.)
After getting fucked by the fifth boss, Sonic The Hedgehog for TWO FUCKING WEEKS I finally beat the dirty blue cunt. That little fucker was railing me harder than Barry on a Friday night with no lube in the back room of a dive bar. But I destroyed that Azure Eulipotyphlan cunt after one epic 19 hour session. 19 hours of fighting the same minute long fight, over and over again.
The reason I fought him for 19 hours straight? At the start of the day someone in my Twitch stream said that they would tip me $30 if I beat him before the end of the day. Someone else heard about that, and they said they'd tip $30 too. Then another said $50 and another said $20 and $5 and so on until the total bet against me beating him before the end of that day was $320.
And I did it. I beat him. It was the most powerful victory I've ever experienced in a video game to date.
TL:DR - Beat hardest boss so far in hard game. Won the monies when I did it. Now just gotta beat the rest of the game.
It's only taken 3 months and 46,874 deaths so far...
Edit: Wow... I expected to be downvoted harder than selfies of Danny Davito's rectum if it was sentient! D: A couple of people have asked what my twitch is, it's just https://www.twitch.tv/woddee/ Stop by if you like :D
FP Edit: Holy Heck! After 3 years on Imgur; I'm GLORIOUS, I have a really cool Trophy and I feel like I've made so many friends from the Imgur community that understand how satisfying these victories in Gaming can be. This is why we game, right? ♥
tpgreyknight
I have PTSD just from watching that

Thats more than i make a month. Oh yeah i dont have a job...

Downvote? Hell no, I know a well deserved victory when I see one. Congratz on the win and the monies. Shuryuken. +1
TheLateKnight
If you thought that was hard... I've been trying to kill the final boss for 6 months.
Woddee
Oh no....

That "fuck you" *flips bird* is the perfect representation of every gamer that has been in your shoes. Well done, sir. Well done.

That is the best description of this game that I have ever seen.

No it is.

"Dirty Blue Cunt" ... that sounds like an interesting name for a rock band.

Only took 3 months to win $320. Wow.
sgtcoffman
Only took one day to win $320. The money wasn't on the table until the day he beat it. Plus his wage from Twitch.

Well he'll be making more over the 3 months for it, subscriptions to his stream, donations other days& ad revenue, the $320 is on top ofthat

Woddee
Oh yes! I've seen you in his channel :)
AlexanderBlackX
I don't understand how games like that are actually fun. I mean, to each their own.... but damn. My hands hurt just watching that.
ShaunDreclin
The fun comes from overcoming an impossible challenge. The rush when you finally succeed trumps the pain and suffering of hours of failure.
AlexanderBlackX
Oh I get that much. I like a good challenge, but that level of insanity is lost on me. My respect to those with the fortitude for it though.
Sharkuu
to each their own, i guess. i rather die every second without losing progress, but my friends explode in anger just watching me
Sharkuu
on the other hand, they like challenges themselves. most of those are done after ~
Sharkuu
~5 tries, but take like 20 minutes each try. thats the part where i lose it, doing the same easy stuff again and again, just
Durzaka
The pixel perfect nature of the game is what bothers me the most.
Sharkuu
its not that much, as solgryn didnt want to make an impossible game. there are like 5 pixel perfect jumps, and one of them by accident
KlatnYelox
Ever played Dark Souls? Challenge ran DMC or Kingdom Hearts?
PedestrianElectrobastard
Dark Souls is not particularly hard, especially not compared to this.
KlatnYelox
Neither are KH or DMC, but you won't clear any of them on your first, or likely third tries for a lot of the bosses.
KlatnYelox
The feeling you get when you finally beat one of the hard bosses, though? That's why we do it
Zaranthan
You've never experienced the sheer adrenaline rush when things get tight, nor the absurd high when you finally beat a segment like this. 1/
Zaranthan
You normally have to shell out fifty bucks and risk imprisonment for that sort of sensation. 2/2

Few people buy the superhard games (and most who do end up refunding after dying 20 times to lvl 1). Money sadly drives the world.
Krysonox
I am okay with casual, easy to play games. It attracts new gamers and I want to see this community grow. However... 1/3
Krysonox
When a more difficult option is available, I will always take it. I love mastering something, I love a challenge, I love to "git gud". 2/3
Krysonox
This is why games like Overwatch annoy me a bit. It takes the rare genre of difficult games (FPS (Proper ones)) and simplifies it a lot 3/4
Krysonox
For most heroes, there was nothing to learn, just when to use them. I agree, the challenge is great, but some modern games still have that.
Flyndaran
Trancing. When doing the same actions over and over, you may hit "the zone" where you do things you couldn't otherwise.

Funnily enough, I believe we were listening to Trance at the time.

Heck, Witwix doesn't even run Boshy anymore because it was too stressful. Plus, he enjoys Mario games just a smidge more.

he played boshy a few days ago :D that was a blast, he has gotten reeaally rusty :')

Gonna check you out for sure. I used to watch Witwix all the time for all his boshy insanity but he basically had the entire game in muscle

GymnocephalusRex
Ha! I watched you get beaten a few times last week or so!
Lleeroy
I remember when Witwix ran this at AGDQ. Maybe you will too one day?
HutchTheClutch
His run with Ray formerly of Rooster Teeth on the couch was hilarious
Woddee
I fucking doubt it. When I beat this, I'm done with this cancerous game forever.
Sharkuu
so after that it will be wings of vi? it definitely is easier than boshy

I beat the hardest boss ever and all I got was $250 in court fees

ovelanimimerkki
That's not even that much. I'd pay that if I could beat the shit out of my most cunt of a boss ever and get away with it. She was the worst.
PedestrianElectrobastard
I think he means that he beat his boss in court.
strakur
I would really pay $250 to hit by boss, but the ensuing unemployment makes it prohibitively expensive
ovelanimimerkki
Maybe it's a good thing that's not possible here.

alot of games can be very punishing, the up side is there are lots of save points in boshi. some people like punishment
MajyykPhD
I mean...I play dark souls with gusto and I'm not even close to that masochistic. Good luck to them, I suppose
ApsychicRat
dark souls in my opinion is really easy though. its only hard if you go super light or caster. heavy armor bandit axe and tower shield FTW
MajyykPhD
I go caster and super light every time though
xenburnn
Large budget modern games are never extremely difficult though. There isn't a market for it.

Is the fight RNG or set patterns? That's what really matters, if it's RNG you're amazing, if it's a pattern then, time investment

firekirby
Both. You can manipulate his positioning and movement (which takes a LOT of practice in its own right) but not the springs or missiles
HumansArePrettyNeat
The sonic that orbits you isn't random per se but it attempts to collide with you on each orbit so you have to maniuplate it.
HumansArePrettyNeat
The falling pieces are completely rng. Sonics patterns outside of the loop are usually static tho.
ApsychicRat
some people say dark souls is hard. they are wrong. boshi is hard. dark souls is punishing.

Dark souls is easy

Dark souls is only hard when people get impatient. Unless you're invading you don't need precision or reflexes. They just help at that point

Dark souls is just fair. There is no "let me hold your hand" or "you know what, fuck you"
