Don't know whats more insane, the first phase klaww skip, or the fact that you clutched the rest of the run afterwards with exceptionally few errors. Fucked run man, seriously one of the best of all time.
I cant believe you got through the pass with that camera. And I've never seen that kinda skip for klaww before. Josh has his work cut out for him on this one. Well done Stellar!
Alright since people are already talking about where it goes from here: This run isn't perfect, not even close. It *is* good and ground-breaking in some ways, but I'm not personally happy enough to leave it as it is. The most obvious place for improvement is the Rocket split, where i lose 12 seconds to my gold. Rocket is my achilles heel and it's a rough trick for most runners in general. Whilst it may look like it is effectively random, it's not. It's just really hard to be consistent. If i can get at least a decent Rocket, with a similar level across the rest of the run, then a 15:4x is within reach and that is where I think I would be happy to leave it. There are strats/better movement that could be implemented which could take it down even further, but they would all be new to me (and most people) and would likely take a long time to implement into the WR. While I do expect I will add these in eventually, there are other categories I want to tackle before then. So for now, i'm not adding in anything more. I just want to refine this current route a little more. 2022/09/01 Edit: LOL What a clown this guy is, didn't do any runs afterwards
POV: it's 2010, and your mom is shopping and you're grounded from the PS2 for 1 week for bullying another boy. you're home alone. you find the smartest way out to beat the game before she gets home. you turn on the PS2 and start playing.
I've never seen that Klaww skip before, so that paired with the absolutely slacking cameraman on Mountain Pass just floored me, good shit my dude that was some slick gameplay
@@mcshach9982 at 7:06 he does a boosted that allows him to get behind klaww. This boosted is done during klaww's first phase of attacks. Usually, you have to wait until the first phase is over and collect blue eco, but Stellar skips this waiting with a first phase boosted
the whole run before klaw i was wondering what could he have possibly done to improve it by that much, i thought it was the first cutscene skip, but it wasnt, and then when it came to klaw, i was like no way he actually managed to do drunk cam! congrats, bravo
Big GGs only ever watched josh before but damn that skip for klaww brother! I damn dropped my phone in awe what a run, like you said not perfect in your eyes but hella ground breaking my guy very well done!
God I love this game, amazing run. Just replayed the Jak trilogy last year but this video is making me already want to replay Jak and Daxter again lmfao.
Funnily, (like most others) I'd never seen this variation of Klaww Skip used before, but I had once tried to do something very similar after I noticed that first cold spot you used while practicing standard Klaww Skip. Cool as fuck. Beast run man 💯
Yeah I think it wasn't that rare for people to try jumping onto the platforms in the lava casually. This skip was actually the first one I ever found on my own (although it was already known in the community).
@@The_Stellar Nice one, not new to the game at all but have only recently started learning Any%. Will be following to see if this time can be matched/beaten. Probably be a while haha 👍
@@chrmbs.2807 Nice! You can do what you want, but I would really recommend you learn something else before Any%. Pretty much any runner will tell you the same. You can check the guides on sr.com and/or join the community discord (linked on sr.com) for any questions/help.
@@The_Stellar Being familiar with the game's mechanics has helped, but I'd assume that's the case. I've watched people run Any% over and over again and once I get an idea in my head I tend to stick with it lol. Not really spoken to anyone about it either but maybe should knock off some of the major skips for now. Can do Boulder/Klaww Skip pretty consistently and nearly halfway there with FCS and LTS, but both are significantly more difficult to learn of course so could come back to them later. Will check out the discord, cheers! 👍
it took me months to beat this game when this guy beats it in 15 minutes wtf??? well it took me months cuz i was stuck on the last boss and i will play it every now and then just to try beat the last boss and then i turn it off when i die lol :D this was one of the hardest game i had on ps2 lol :D
Amazing work bro. That was so exciting to watch. However Josh's former wr seemed way cleaner in his movement. Did that first phase skip really make that much difference?
No. The skip if done perfectly saves 12/13 seconds, in this run it saved 10. I don't think his run is much cleaner than mine at all. Neither are close to flawless.
The first time I am doing what is called an 'Idle Storage', the second time it is an 'Idle Deload'. All you really need to know about both is that I'm standing still for 30 seconds waiting for Jak's idle animation to play (a little animation that plays when Jak hasn't moved for a while). This animation does more than just visibily make Jak shift around, and it is important to how I spawn on the zoomer half way through Lava Tube. You won't ever really see the animation since in the first case I move almost immediately, and in the second case it never plays other than Jak twitching slightly.
It's a side-effect of skipping the boss fight. The camera stays locked on to Klaww, but facing forward still since you're on the zoomer, so it keeps bouncing around as Klaww moves around and your angle to him changes as you drive through the Pass.
Nah, it ain't dead until mah boi OutrageousJosh makes it dead. I hope you give him many months of motivation to beat this likewise outrageous run. Fucking spectacular it was.
I don't expect this category to be dead any time soon, there's still plenty that can be added in but it's just not easy. It will be a while before we actually run out of ways to improve the run outside of shaving off a second at a time.
Don't know whats more insane, the first phase klaww skip, or the fact that you clutched the rest of the run afterwards with exceptionally few errors. Fucked run man, seriously one of the best of all time.
That first phase klaww skip literally blew my mind lol
Oh wow! If ThaRixer comment on a "TPL Speedrun WR" then you know it's legit! Well done Stellar!
goddamn goddamn goddamn
I cant believe you got through the pass with that camera. And I've never seen that kinda skip for klaww before. Josh has his work cut out for him on this one. Well done Stellar!
I was also amazed, dealing with that camera would suck, and take lots of attempts, at least for me
It's unfortunate jsoh basically doesn't speedrunn the game anymore. At least not on a competitive level. He is just enjoying the game now

@@raze2012_ you know what's funny? Aslov just beat it. Like less than an hour before you typed that.
@@The_Stellar damn I jinx'd it :(
Not only it's a gamer time, but you also did it with drunk camera during the chase. Sick movement aswell throughout the whole run. Mad respect.

the "easy" at the end killed me. great run
The first phase into lava walk straight into drunk race had my brain explode! That run was INSANE GG!!!
Jak was BEGGING for a cooling balloon during the fire canyon skip lol
He broke the game so much that even the camera is afraid of him haha
amazing - mountain pass split is aptly titled, unbelievable. Short of 1frames and bad luck with the rocket, I think that was perfect
As much as i'd love to blame the bad rocket split on luck, it's entirely on me. It is certainly my achilles heel.
The culmination of dedication from a passionate community.
That might be the biggest gamer moment I've seen
This is truly one for the history books my friend. Very well done.
Thank you for blessing my comment section, Callum Rhodes.
My guy is built different. GG, Can't wait to see the improvement from here
Was amazed by this 9 months ago, insane that the record is still standing. Kudos brother!
I love watching speedruns with absolutely no clue whats going on
Yoo Congratz Stellar. That's a good looking time.
good lord, this lad really did first phase boosted.
Can you please explain what "first phase boosted" is? I'm new to speedrunning terminology.

Coming back to this, the Klawww skip is amazing every time
Brilliant run, it's amazing to see competition on this game after Josh's long streak as king. Looking forward to seeing how far this time can go!
this was such an amazing run to watch. i appreciate the grind you put in to push this to where you have! hope you're able to get the 15:4x
This is insane and you are inhuman I am truly at a loss for words
I've never seen first phase Klaww skip, so dope! Great run!
I don't know what to easy... "GG"?! "Congratulations"?! Maybe that's not enough.
But I can say one thing with certainty: you are a legend.

I wish you a very congratz on world record 😎
Bro that drunk camera chase is a thing of beauty!!!
Stellar lives up to the name 🔥
my god stellar you’re insane, ggs🙌🏽
Congrats Man, I Knew Sub 16 Was Close and You Frickin Did it, GGs
Yooooooo that Klaww Skip? Never seen before. Daaaaamn!
There's definitely alot to improve but holy fuck that klaww skip and mountain pass afterwards with the super fucked camera was insane.
It was suppose to say mountain pass but it said…MOUNTAIN ASS🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😎
Outrageous josh. You are history
(Fire Canyon)
It begins....
God I love this game, amazing run. Just replayed the Jak trilogy last year but this video is making me already want to replay Jak and Daxter again lmfao.
insane, within 100s of TAS too lol
I'm still picking my jaw up off the floor..
The claw skip made me go: "wat?"
youre insane dude
Honestly one of the most impressive speed runs I’ve seen for most games, don’t know how this legend only has a few hundred subs but he’s earned mine 😂

You dó make it look easy bro
I can promise you it doesn't feel easy :D

I don't know a whole lot about speedrunning this game, what was with the random moments where you sat still for a good while

@@The_Stellar no way sherlock
GOOD JOB!!!
oh SHIT
gg

Kanye
Wow!
here bcus of thumbnail
You wouldn't be the first
What's up with the camera at Mt. Ass?
It's a side-effect of skipping the boss fight.
The camera stays locked on to Klaww, but facing forward still since you're on the zoomer, so it keeps bouncing around as Klaww moves around and your angle to him changes as you drive through the Pass.
15:55
Why is Kanye west the thumb nail 😂
he's an avid Jak & Daxter fan
@@The_Stellar we learn something everyday , niiceee
GGWP bruh, sorry to ruin 69 comments tho
Was the camera issue a side effect of the Klaww skip?
Yes.
Specifically it's a side effect of doing '1st Phase Klaww Skip', instead of the slower but easier version that you'll see in other runs.
Why isn't Jak turning black in FCS?
He does if you do it for long enough.
I don't actually know when he goes burnt and when he doesn't, or why.
shit bro
Is this forrest gump the video game?
nope
It’s a shame you can’t skip the cutscenes in jak and Daxter. If so you could cut the time in half of less. Could prob speed run it in 5 mins or less.
I feel like you didn't even watch the run, most of it isn't cutscenes. You'd cut a few minutes off but it wouldn't even be sub 10 most likely.
Nice! I guess this category is dead now
Not yet :)
There is still improvement for the lavatube skip. And a bit of minor movement flaws that could get 1 or 2 extra secs.
Nah, it ain't dead until mah boi OutrageousJosh makes it dead. I hope you give him many months of motivation to beat this likewise outrageous run. Fucking spectacular it was.
I don't expect this category to be dead any time soon, there's still plenty that can be added in but it's just not easy. It will be a while before we actually run out of ways to improve the run outside of shaving off a second at a time.
