Rating Curve

Thank you for the laugh

I used to violently hate this level because I thought it didn't do the song justice. I don't know why I was so angry back then. This is a fine level.

My issue with Rage Quit isn't that I think it's "soulless slop" or "tasteless" (I believe in no such thing). My issue with it is that it's jarring, hard to follow. If there were more cohesion then I think I'd like this level quite a lot! It has an interesting gimmick but it seriously messes up on the execution. It took me a while to understand what was supposed to be happening. And even now I'm not sure I get it completely.

I'm rating the visuals 10/10 simply because they are some of the most technically impressive I've seen in the game and I can't not give credit for that. And my overall rating is bumped up by 1 due to the legacy that this level has made for itself, I guess. I can't help but appreciate the many conversations had—positive or negative—about a $1,000 Stereo Madness remake that hurts my eyes. Maybe it doesn't make all that much sense to raise my rating because it's controversial... I don't know. I'm just grateful for Rage Quit's existence despite not personally liking it a ton.
