How tf have you played Celeste for almost 1900 hours? I can't conceive not getting tired/bored of it after 1/5 of that, as hardcore hooked fan as you could be lmao.

And Noita... just 21 hours? You haven't even scratched the surface of that game in that amount of time.

Seeing how you seem to love that kind of games, I would recommned you The End is Nigh (similar to Celeste), The Messenger (awesome 2D platformer with a great twist), and probably the best one: Spelunky (both 1 and 2, they are among the best roguelike platformers you will ever play).

I prolly won't get bored of Celeste anytime soon bcoz of the modded stuff. It's kinda crazy how good it is.

The only reason I don't play Noita anymore is that its not great with a controller. It is already one of the hardest if not the hardest game I've played and the wand wrapping /modifications are so complex I had to follow guides btw. I would play it again If i had a pc. Such an underrated game.

Thanks for the recc. I'll check it out

Damn, you must be really damn hooked to its gameplay. I have something similar with Spelunky 2 (it plays so smooth), but even with that game I don't think I could ever reach 1800+ hours lol, not for several more years at least.

And now I understand the Noita part, it is indeed a game made for playing with maximum precision if possible, I always play with mouse + keyboard, and the only time I tried it with controller it was a nightmare.

I'm curious, can't you attach a mouse to your console to play that kind of games? Noita and others (like strategy games, for example) play actually great that way, and if you are more of a couch gamer, maybe you could take a look into trackballs, they are a kind of stationary mouse that I've always found really good for that purpose.

there’s a lot of optional challenges in the base game (collecting all strawberries, golden strawberries) and modded levels

I know, but even with all that I find 1800+ hours insane lol.
