This Troll Level Was ALMOST Great

  • If it wasn't for the literal softlock and the anti-softlock that took minutes to get through, it would have been alright.

    I don't know the full inner workings of Mario maker, but that softlock felt like Mario maker scuff that the level designer couldn't even fathom occurring.

    That's why popular troll levels often have so many revisions; it takes a while to find and fix all the potential jank softlocks. I think that creator was trying their best.

      In most cases I'd disagree, but this one really seemed like absolute mm2 jank that nobody could have predicted. I don't think anyone could replicate it intentionally, as a creator I'd just shrug and slap a spike into there if it isn't too annoying to do.
      The magikoopa anti-softlock did deserve a boo, though. That was just a tedious amount of waiting.

    • @222Grigori
      @222Grigori Před rokem +16

      I don't think the boo was so much for a softlock as it was for that magikoopa waiting section (8:04). He waited 1.5 minutes instead of using "give up" and then he got softlocked so it didn't matter that he waited. Creator did put thought in making antisoftlocks as simple as spikes and sometimes more involving (18:45) but this one was just waiting for death, and it's not a jank or anything just annoying design.
      I think I also would meh it, but remember that what we perceive as 12.5 minutes in yt video was 25 minutes for panga because he edited half of it out. So the final emotion of having to start the level again after 25 minutes and 1.5 of it being waiting so you don't have to start from beginning is understandable.

  • @unuseableb
    @unuseableb Před rokem +30

    The troll meta nowadays is that after a section and a cp the next section will be unique the first time and thus unexpected the second time. Sort of trolling you twice.
    If you play it normally, aka getting the checkpoints its less annoying and 100 times more funny as you walk into it the second time believing you know how to avoid it.
    This is often used for even non-red coin troll levels, where you really should not skip the cp and loose 2 minutes of progress.
    For players like panga it would be beneficial to force get the cps to avoid confusion tho. If that was the case it wouldnt be an issue that the sections would be unbeatable in a row, as you would only see the unbeatable variant once ever.

    • @Pzychotix
      @Pzychotix Před rokem +2

      It's not really a troll when it's unbeatable though. It's basically just a forced death that feels janky. If it was an actual alternate path with a winnable route, it would've felt much better.

      @@unuseableb Troll levels are meant to be puzzles, not completely magical and out of the realm of human comprehension, and I think one of the best parts about troll levels that do this checkpoint difference thing well is that figuring out how to do it deathless to get WR is a whole new and different puzzle. There must be a way to do it here, maybe involving a certain specific order of operations, because they had to clear-check it. But the point is it's vastly less discoverable via trial and error than the normal room solutions, which optimally isn't the case. Building multiple levels of depth into your level for players who want to dig deeper is one of the things that can set apart a great troll creator.

    @kman6004 Před rokem +28

    I think that this was a really good troll level. There was just the obvious softlock that needs to be fixed in a new version, and you could argue (rightly so) that the Magikoopa anti-softlock was pretty poorly designed as well. Other than that, it was really good.

  • @DatHypnoboi
    @DatHypnoboi Před rokem +2

    I think the purpose of the on-off state differences for the rooms was probably to have a checkpoint twice-twice troll. It's a pretty common troll to make the next room different when you enter after a respawn vs when you continue after getting the checkpoint, though I don't think I've ever seen it in a red coin level, and this level sort of shows why it isn't usually a thing.
