Never let anyone else define you. Don't be a jerk just to be a jerk, but if you are expressing your true inner feelings and beliefs, or at least trying to express that inner child, and everyone gets pissed off about it, never NEVER apologize for it. Let them think what they want, let them define you in their narrow little minds while they suppress every last piece of them just to keep a friend that never liked them for themselves in the first place.
Thinking about it, I'm sitting on a pile of platformers that include Celeste, Cave Story+, Fez, Axiom Verge, Horace... Should I be thinking about getting another platformer instead of playing one of those?
Thinking at LEAST do Celeste, that seems cream of the crop.

Depends on how much platforming you actually want to do.
I prefered Axiom Verge, but it's not quite as "pure" a platformer as Celeste is. I suppose all Metroidvanias are technically platformers too, but they aren't quite as focused on avoiding death falls and platform puzzles. Axiom Verge is a Metroid inspired, at the end of the day.
With Celeste, it's exclusively platform puzzles.

I did like Super Meat Boy, could go either way there. Ever play Knytt Stories? That was pure platformer, and it was awesome. So was VVVVVV.

Forgot about Sundred, that was fun. Abandoned it to play Hollow Knight, but as good as that was the super hard bosses wore me down, maybe something like Sundred or Axiom Verge could revive the spark.

I never tried Knytt Stories, but pure platformers are often frustrating to play for me. Maybe a notch below hardcore puzzle games. I can deal with challenging combat all day, but falling to my death in increasingly complex platform mazes kills me inside. Celeste had me at my wits end, and I stopped playing Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams when the sequences got too complicated.
The White Palace in Hollow Knight was a rare exception though. One of the most enjoyable platforming experiences I've ever had.

Are we talking the normal white palace or the hidden parts?
I enjoyed the normal sections but ended up breaking my right shoulder button completely jammed it in. 😂
I still use the controller on games that don't need all 8 buttons and can set to use any other button, figure it saves the life span on my gpod controllers.

I don't think Dying Light is for me. The quests are kind of boring fetch stuff, the virals just make traversing an annoyance, the leveling system makes early game far too frustrating and almost forces you to grind for perks, and the parkour up radio towers and such is way too prominent and not why I play zombie games. It's also annoying how you can climb some things yet not other things for no discernable reason (I guess the wire mesh stops you climbing up bits of radio towers, but why should it? And why can't you climb a ladder that is blocked off part way to reach another thing to grab on to?)

Checked out the Lies of P demo, it’s very heavily inspired by Bloodborne. The atmosphere is pretty cool, but like most non-from soft souls games, they can’t seem to quite get the polish and fluidity of the combat right.

Expecting too much from a soulshite game more like.

Or games to avoid for performance? (Am getting Nier Automata no matter what)

Second down the list actually, always said it was a masterpiece.
Thinking No Man's Sky for third place...

Because stupid devs keep making awful Soulsbournes garbage, Souls sucks and always sucked!

Nier Automata is even better than they say, **** Elden Ring.
