What is the worst level in GD as per your opinion?

United States

Levels that say thay are auto but not

United States

that one portal level in the map pack

Canada

I don't think this is the right place for this question, considering that this is a speedrunning forum. But I'll entertain it with my own hot take.

Lots of levels fall into the "so bad it's good" category. A level can have frustrating gameplay or strange design choices, but still have humour and charm in spite of that. Even if a level is really, really bad, that at least gives it infamy and as a result, makes them interesting. I kinda treat most levels like they are an "underdog" if that makes sense. I root for them, even if I don't always have the best time playing them.

In my mind, the true worst levels are the ones that contain offensive/explicit/triggering content or theming/messages. Unlike the "so good its bad" levels, these pose an actual risk.

Lots of those (unrated) levels exist online. If I can only pick rated levels however, I've narrowed it down to two. One of which is so graphic that it wouldn't be appropriate naming it here. The other having such a poor message that I refuse to call by its proper name: WMx4.

I won't be going into further detail on the level.

Edit: I also really like P0RTAL by Minesap.

imo any jenkins level sucks ass. i mean the deco is fine but the gameplay is horrible. i have experience with one of his levels and it was the most unenjoyable thing i have ever done

main level? the challenge. its so unchallenging that i bet i could do it blindfolded. but if were talking rated online levels then i think id have to go with square adventure or something. it gave me so much trouble when i was going for the map packs

United States

United States
