i would say i did a pretty good job of finding the ones i found on my own, and even thats not a lotĬhapter 1 - i found it and solved the puzzleĬhapter 2 - i never found this on my own. Yeah, blue hearts arent easily obtainable without looking it up. That way, it doesn’t stop players who are skilled enough from progressing, especially the ones who don’t like looking up where to find stuff. What do you think about the Blue Gate, and are there any changes you would make to it? Personally, I don’t see any better solutions other than only having the barrier in Chapter 9 requiring Red Hearts. There’s probably a very small percentage of people who legitimately found the heart in Chapter 6 without a guide, however a chunk of them most likely can definitely get past all of B-Sides, and maybe even C-Sides when given enough time. I’m personally not bothered by this since I 100%d the game long before Chapter 9 came out, however, I am just worried that the blue gate doesn’t do a fair job at gauging skill. However, since Chapter 9 has story, it’s pretty strange that the players would need to know a reference to a 30 year old Mario game to progress the plot. I did it to unlock something that was noncanon bonus content. Who hasn’t looked up where the blue hearts are honestly? Personally, I have, and I wasn’t really bothered by it.

This would be perfectly okay, if it weren’t for the fact that Chapter 9 has story. The other half unlocked by doing secret cryptic shenanigans. they still would be missing half of the hearts. For a normal player, or at least one that has 5 or so hearts, they would jump to the conclusion that beating the B-Sides is what they beed to pass! Well. The intentional design behind skipping the barrier is awesome! However, I see a slight flaw in its design.Ĩ Blue hearts, and 7 Red hearts is what you need to pass through. To be honest, as a very experienced player, this is one of my favorite things in the game. There is now a heart barrier in the middle of the chapter. However Chapter 9 has recently released, and it has surfaced something odd. A reward for exploration, and a good design choice for making “True Ending” runs go smoother. In fact, I loved their presence! They were a collectable to access Chapter 8 without having to do any B-Sides. Before Chapter 9 I have never had a problem with blue hearts.
