#serious time#i've been in this fandom since the day the original dropped#i bought it same day too#i played it next to my brother on my laptop who could not join#but he wanted to#oh he wanted to#i struggled hard and it took me months to get anywhere#but finally i got to dr kahls robot#i ragequit one night and my brother asked to play. i made a new save and let him go ham#an hour later he asked for help closing the game. i came in and he had accidentally deleted my save#months of progress... gone#i left the game for a long time after that. it took me so long to get to that point#but steadily i worked my way back up. i even tried again after moving to another computer and loosing everything again#finally... this year. 2022. i beat dr kahl's robot.#i screamed to the rooftops at like 3 am#i beat out the rest of Isle III and once again put the game down.#then once the DLC release date was announced I decided to finish this once and for all.#after a solid week of fighting i beat King Dice#there was one week left to beat Devs. I did it with two days to spare.#then today i beat the DLC. It's the 6th. It took me exactly a week.#It took me 5 years to beat the original and only a week to beat the DLC. Already I was shaking from how far I've come#but then... i heard the reprise in the credits.#the place where it all began... the first song i'd heard from this game back in 2017... that song I'd heard so many times...#i cried. i cried hard. Twice. I was in a discord call and it came over the bot not long after that and I cried so hard.#i've come so far. I'm a completely different person. but also the same. i've done so much and am now living on my own#by brother is ~2 hours away from me and he's beaten the original 6+ times and beat the DLC in like 2 days#but I can now say that I've done it. On my own. No help. I finally beat this game... and I've grown.#and it all really hit me because of that end credits song.#thank you cuphead. thank you for inspiring me to be who i am today in so many ways. thank you for giving me something i didn't know was a#...vital part of me. I am fully engrossed in the world of 30s animation and it's all thanks to you
