what is the Hardest game ever made? (The long answer)

What is the hardest game ever made? seems like a simple question, but if you look around to try and find anything resembling an objective answer you will quickly realize there is nothing of the sort online. After thinking about it for a couple seconds you will quickly realize why, there is so many issues with this question. How can you even define something as hard? How could you categorize something as harder than something else if difficulty is subjective? I thought about these things for a long time while compiling all the hardest games I could find and think of. While of course this isn't a top 10 type list and the games are in no particular order, I am quite sure I have in fact found the hardest game in history within the boundaries I've set. Of course we do need certain boundaries for this otherwise it becomes impossible, there are a lot of things that you have to specify when you are talking about how hard something is and how you define difficulty. Those things will be unique to each person and yours might be different from mine, so this shouldn't be taken as gospel, but I hope the info in this video is at least entertaining and helps you figure out what would be the hardest game you know. Speaking of which. I haven't played every game out there, I haven't seen or read about them either, at this point more games are made every year than you could possibly play even if that's all you did. This of course means there is definitely games out there that deserved to be mentioned which I definitely missed, if you know one of those, please comment about it, if there is enough of them I might make a follow up. Lastly this video was heavily inspired by ‪@xArchivist‬'s video:    • The Hardest Platinum Trophy in Playstation...   it is amazing and I suggest you watch it if you haven't. My most sincere thanks to him, this video started with me thinking that Crypt was actually harder than he explained, which I knew since I had played the game before, and that he never mentioned zone 5, and what started as an idea for an "update" to his video, or a different angle to the same story, over a year eventually developed into this video. Additionally his video:    • 3 Nearly Impossible Gaming Challenges I Wa...   Clued me into Trails Fusion, which I had never heard of before. Sub to him, it's worth it. ▬ Contents of this video ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 0:00 - Intro 0:50 - What is hard? 2:01 - Sekiro 3:44 - Rule 1 6:06 - Rule 2 9:06 - Rule 3 10:17 - Rule 4 12:44 - Rule 5 15:38 - Rule 6 16:50 - Rule 7 22:37 - Any % games vs Hardest possible challenge 24:31 - What is the hardest Any % game? 26:40 - Dead Cells 27:25 - Trails Fusion 29:20 - Hollow Knight 36:40 - Celeste 39:55 - Wings of Vi 41:56 - Hades 50:52 - Halo 2 51:49 - The hardest game ever made 1:09:16 - The hardest possible challenge Links to things I referenced in the video: In case you want to try the stopwatch game but are too lazy to type it out -- https://www.online-stopwatch.com/ Jhontron video on Takeshi's Challenge --    • Takeshi's Challenge - JonTron   LennyGold's Links -- Twitch:   / lennygold   -- Youtube:    / @lennygold0   ‪@Haelian‬ 's video --    • Why Max Heat in Hades is Nearly Impossible...   Angel1c's 64 Heat legendary run --    • HADES 64 HEAT UNSEEDED UNMODDED (Thought t...   You can find her channel here --    / @angelic3276   Charlie's video on Halo 2:   • Hardest Challenge in Gaming That No One Ha...   ‪@Jervalin‬ 's Halo 2 run:    • Moist Cr1tikal Challenge - Halo 2 Classic ...   Oubeidong's Coda run -    • Crypt of the NecroDancer Coda SIX Mode Imp...   Music: Lemmino - Nocturnal Jake Chudnow - Moon Men Sekiro OST - Emma the Hollow Knight OST - Fungal Wastes The Stanley Parable OST - Introducing Stanley Undertale OST - Ruins Qumu - Snow mountain (Remix) TMM43 - Ultimate Destruction CRIM3S - lost Outer Wilds OST - Outer Qumu - Super Mario Bros. 2 Overworld (Remix) Outer WIlds OST - Timber Hearth FTL OST - MilkyWay (Battle) Enter the Gungeon OST - Lead Lords Keep Enter the Gungeon OST - Shop Keeps Suite Enter the Gungeon OST - Aimless Void Awaits Elden Ring OST - Final Battle Gravity Rush OST - Douse Shinundakara (instrumental) Dead Cells OST - Title Trails Fusion OST - Falling Once More Hollow Knight OST - Greenpath Hollow Knight OST - City of Tears Hollow Knight OST - Mantis Lords Hollow Knight OST - Radiance Hollow Knight OST - White Palace Celeste OST - First Steps ---Continued in pinned comment, description ran out of space lol Sorry for not linking to every piece of footage that wasn't mine I used on this video, this took so long to make and was remade so many times I lost most links and some of them I just can't find, send me a discord message if you want a link to a video of yours I used in the description.
