9 Video Game Moments Of 2018 That Gave You Chills

2. Beating Chapter 7's C-Side - Celeste

Considering how mind-bogglingly difficult even just the core levels of this gorgeous retro platformer are, only masochists need bother with the additional challenge of the B-Sides and especially those damn C-Sides.

While the C-Sides are mercifully short, they compensate for their brevity with sheer, thumb-destroyingly brutal difficulty, and arguably nothing in the game proves quite as tough as the Chapter 7 C-Side.

Accepted by most Celeste fans to be the most punishing level in the entire game, C-7 is an exercise in player self-flagellation which can easily see you dying hundreds of times while squandering several hours of your life (and the sheer stress just might shave a few years off, to be honest).

What seems to trip most players up is the stamina-assaulting final segment, which requires a near-superhuman level of dexterity and awareness of the game's traversal systems. When (or if) you finally beat it, though? It's better than sex.
