MODERATORS
I already played Celeste 3 years ago. It was alright but man the story in the game was trash, the game would've been better without it.
Huh I'm not sure I'm okay with the downvotes you're getting. Downvote shit posts/comments people, not stuff you disagree with.
That said, I'm curious why you thought the story was trash? I liked it a lot actually; the kindness that Madeline eventually offers herself is extremely important in her healing. The game doesn't pretend to be "oh mental health crisis averted" after 7 chapters either. The difficulty of the gameplay pairs really well with the rise (and massive drop) that comes with processing one's emotions.
Granted it's a bit on the nose (I'll give you that) but the mark of a good story is hardly complexity.
