Re: You know you suck at Rayman when...
Tbh it isn't that easy to get 100k there if you're not focusing on combos. Also, keep in mind you've been speedrunning that level recently, that isn't the way you'd normally play the game

Yeah, you're right, this would be the first time I try to both speedrun the game and get 100K, even back in the day when I used to play the game a lot, I just had fun playing the levels, never cared about points or completion time. I guess I underestimated how difficult this was going to be.DaveRattlehead wrote: Tue Mar 21, 2023 9:03 pm Tbh it isn't that easy to get 100k there if you're not focusing on combos.

Re: You know you suck at Rayman when...
You don't have to martyr yourself so much for not having reached 100k points, if you have never focused on making combos it's normal that you find it quite strange. There are many videos and help guides in this forum that can help you. Luckily, there is only one way to learn, and that is by playingElite Piranha wrote: Tue Mar 21, 2023 10:16 pm Yeah, you're right, this would be the first time I try to both speedrun the game and get 100K, even back in the day when I used to play the game a lot, I just had fun playing the levels, never cared about points or completion time.

Also, I'd like to point something out... Even if there's a potential $100 prize, I think it's important not to get obsessed. If I've learned something from crew battles in GTA 5 (unfortunately I've encountered a lot of crappy people there), it's that you should never get so obsessed with winning, because you don't enjoy the learning process or the event itself. And when you enjoy neither one thing nor the other, then there's no point in continuing to play.

It's too bad you weren't able to submit an entry for the contest, but I hope you had fun trying at least! Scoring can be hard, but I also found the guides on the forum to be a great help.

Yeah, at least it was fun playing the game again (however I must say, Murfy's is kind of annoying, don't know why it didn't bother me when I was younger).Hunchman801 wrote: Wed Mar 22, 2023 4:43 pm It's too bad you weren't able to submit an entry for the contest, but I hope you had fun trying at least!

When all the gravestones in the Land of the Livid Dead were made for every time you died.
Yes, like the Graveyard biome in Terraria

I'm not familiar with Terraria, but that sounds like a brilliant idea!

Re: You know you suck at Rayman when...
To clarify, you leave behind a random gravestone whenever you die in Terraria. If you gather enough graves somewhere, it will turn into progressively into a spooky Graveyard mini-biome the more graves you add, with its own creatures, misty atmosphere and unique features (such as unique items sold by NPCs if you make them live inside)!... Terraria: a game so hard that your corpses will become their own biome.

Re: You know you suck at Rayman when...
I see… I guess they did a very scaled-back version of that with the Rayman Legends challenges, with those little icons showing where other challengers died…
When you know all the right answers in Rayman Junior but keep getting killed because you can't move Rayman onto them (somewhat guilty when I first started out, which made me afraid to play for a long time

I've never gotten a platnum trophy, even after playing for like 5 years

When you get a negative level of awesomeness from the moment you boot up the game.

Re: You know you suck at Rayman when...
Is that a reference to the RD counter's drunkenness?

No, but I guess it could count as such.

Re: You know you suck at Rayman when...
When Mister Dark's reversing curse gets applied at the beginning and doesn't revert even after the final boss fight. (It's symbolic of Rayman "losing control of his spirit", at least if the analogical curse in BG&E is anything to go by!)
