this is SOOO BAD. gameplay is boring, unbalanced, and garbage, even to a ship carried player like myself. deco is really mid and even ugly at times and really overused theme and song. just terrible level all together.

Bloodbath is a mid level that lacks in the gameplay department heavily, however has decent visuals for the time.

Probably the most famous level in the entire game with an absolutely titanium reputation. I'm dead serious here, as corny as this sounds, the aura this level exudes is second to none as far as extremes go in this game. The fact that its decoration is perhaps the most well-aged of any 1.9 level in the history of the game only serves to aid its legendary status.

Peeling back the mystique, however, is when things start to go downhill for this level. A large chunk of the gameplay, by which I mean basically everything past Michigun's part, is actually quite fun. Evasium and Etzer in particular are some of my favorite parts in any extreme. However, it is during and before Michigun where much of the fun value is lost here. The first third of the level is nothing short of a boring slog, making attempts from 0 an absolute chore for a majority of your time with the level. May Michi rest in peace but dear god his part is annoying as hell, dying there feels like a punch in the balls every time. Though, if you're able to trudge through that mess, chances are you'll have a good time with Bloodbath.

Despite its flaws, I genuinely believe that this is an absolute must-play for EVERYONE who gets even halfway decent at this game. It's such an integral part to the legacy of the playing community that beating it is essentially a rite of passage for becoming a skilled player.

I think everything past Michigun is genuinely fun and can even be nice to come back to, but everything beforehand is some of the most upsetting gameplay I have played, it makes going from 0 a genuine chore

though it may be the most iconic level ever, that doesnt neccesarily mean its good. many people, including myself, really liked this level when we first started the game, but especially fkr me, as i grew smarter (not the same as better) when it comes to this game, i realized that the decoration is on par with other 1.9 levels AT BEST, and the gameplay is downright atrocious.

this level is shit people only remember it because it was a top 1. people only KNOW it because it was a top 1. people only LIKE it because it was a top 1. not sorry
