Face-Off is the worst chef task in the entire game.

[CrimbleBimble]

I ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

HATE.

THIS ACHIEVEMENT.

Just when I thought that Bloodsauce Dungeon would dishearten me?

Just when I thought that Fun Farm would send me to the funny farm?

Just when I thought GOLF would make me want to bludgeon myself with a nine irorn?

JUST when I thought that Peppibot Factory would make me want to delete the game?

Along comes trying to No-Hit Pizzaface to prove me wrong yet again. This task/achievement is truly the final frontier of awfulness; Face-Off is man's inhumanity to man, it is honestly THAT painful.

Hours upon hours upon hours were wasted trying to get this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ achievement and I still have not done so yet because I was so close at one point and then I ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up because of how shaken and and fed up I was at this point. And I refuse to take breaks because I want to get this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ task done as soon as possible so I can finally uninstall this game.

Pizzaface itself if you play it casually is something that isn't too bad to experience, to do a no-hit run of him from start to end is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ suffering to the mind. RNG truly feels like it's the number one factor whether your performance is perfect or not, it completely feels like it throws all of your skill out the window with the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that phases one and TWO especially throw at you, and let's not forget vigilante in phase 3.

I have long since stopped enjoying trying to get this achievement done and I just am this close to installing Parsec so that I can have a friend do a no hit run for me so I can get the achievement. I am so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ SICK of this, and I do not have enough patience to deal with it anymore.

♥♥♥♥ this achievement, and the game developers are absolutely insane for thinking that you can do this.

I can't disagree with you, trying to flawlessly beat Pizzaface without taking damage is like trying to hand-stand on top of a building while your hands are bruised and you have to do this for 1 minute without falling. For real, it's truly difficult, even when you know the bosses attacks, that doesn't help it for being 4 phases long, 1. Pizzaface, 2. Pizzahead, 3. 4 of the earlier bosses, and 4. the final Pizzahead fight (or it could be 3 phases if you like to consider that).

It's insane. Like about the only easy parts imo are just pepperman, noise, and fakino, as well as possibly all of phase 4. But by the time you get through all of that garbage, you're already so mentally fatigued at that point that you're bound to make mistakes.

Some say this is an endurance test, I call it an insanity test.

Wait that works?

There's a little trick for phase 1 that makes it way more consistent.
When the fight starts, hit him with the cheeseslime. His next move will be the ground slam, which always spawns one staggered enemy, you want to grab this enemy and wait under pizza face until he starts the animation for spawning enemies out of his nose.
As soon as the animation starts, throw the enemy straight up at him. After the hit, his next attack should be the ground slam again, so you can just loop the fight.
It prevents him from spawning more than one enemy because you skip his "nose spawning" pattern.

I agree, when i first tried it, i though it would be a little easy, but man, pizza head, THE f#####g PIZZA HEAD, i mean ... pizzaface is truly a little annoing but OMG, i sometimes feel this both dudes are just coordinating to just ruin my no-hit.

On first fase, you need to hit pizzahead with the enemies you went through ( i still hate forknight, little john, the slimy dude, the pizza fighter, and the snowman) but the second fase, you realize it was a robot, the REAL annoing dude is pizzahead, let me tell you a little trick (not always works), if pizzahead throws the gun almost to the wall, its because it maybe is gonna use the gun, if it lands on the middle, he probably gonna pull the sword, or throw dinamytes, but with broken pizzaface, they both just are like sonic and tails, they coordinate to success, the third fase its just the bosses, the vigilante can really mess you up if you're too desperate, and the fourth fase its just pizzahead, when i first got the badge, i really wanted to beat the #### of pizzahead, i hope one day i see him to take his ####### head off, thank you.

yeah uh i don't wanna sound fairly toxic but all you really need is just some good dedication. rage is sadly apart of this process tho.

[CrimbleBimble]

As of tonight, I have given up. I went through with the Parsec session with my friend, because I was so utterly done I nearly broke my monitor after failing on like what, phases one or two constantly? I was done.

Got the achievement thanks to them, because my physical health and sanity was NOT worth doing this self-imposed challenge.

What the ♥♥♥♥ do I even gain here other than wasting hours of my life? What do I have to show for it aside from a broken sanity? Nothing.

I did not enjoy this challenge, I did not want to sacrifice anymore of my mental health in this dedication and I make it no secret I have issues with how much I ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hate how much I suck at these types of challenges without losing my mind. ESPECIALLY with garbage cheap-ass controllers I bought from wal-mart.

Just... ♥♥♥♥ everything.

Literally 0 rng in the rematches and very little rng in the final phase. Only phase 2 has a lot of unfair rng tbh.
Good thing that you have a friend who is more cognitively abled so he could carry you.

While I can agree with some of your comments here Its honestly 100% your fault for not taking breaks and not focusing more on the patterns (a few hours in a row of fruitlessly bashing your head against the wall? really? this isn't that kind of challenge). Some P ranks in this game are much dumber in terms of design than beating Pizzahead without taking dmg.

Also using a controller is an L. Maybe you'd have beaten it within an hour like I did if you used the absolute perfection in terms of movement precision that is a keyboard.

I can understand the pain but Pizza Tower is tough but not THAT tough. You better quit hardcore gaming before you truly hurt yourself with some REAL cheap garbage (my go to example is always those extremely unfair pantheons in Hollow Knight).

Also keep your venting of this kind out of the public's eye. Its pretty sad. + You should never brag about whats essentially cheating. Many people here don't really care but other communities will eat you alive for that sort of thing and make you feel 5 times worse lol.

Yeah I agree the bosses in this game are basically glorified quick time events

There is a serious lack of understanding/knowledge that hides behind this wording.

Every other boss in this game is pretty well-designed except Pizza Face. He's just rng, the rest of the fight is nowhere near as hard as him. Also learn to parry.
