  • This is a playthrough with live commentary of Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes (KTANE), both by me, Narwhal Prime. This video is intended for submission to the Games Done Quick (Summer 2017) speedrun marathon. Recorded March 10, 2017

    A few notes
    15:16 - what I said is partially true - on "Multi-tasking" password and buttons modules are always present but the 3rd is a random complex module. About half the bombs do have fixed module sets.
    23:17 - more than once :P
    29:36 - "end of hardcore", as in the end of the bomb named “I am Hardcore”, not hardcore (1-strike) bombs in general

      Limeon Husky probably because it wouldn’t be fun for the viewers who didn’t understand/look at the manual. As an EFM player of this game, I can say that the fact that he memorized both Memory and Who’s on First simply shocks me.

      I know this is too long for a full straight answer but yes the gamma of his screen is turned way up. It's something all ktane speedrunners use to make their times faster. He just didn't turn up the recoding brightness however so it looks like magic to people unexperienced in this game.

      The timer only counts down when the lights turn on, but there is the window of time between when the game loads the bomb and when the lights turn on where the timer doesn’t count down, allowing some insanely fast times, such as getting a 5:00 on the first bomb with crazy good RNG.

      Second one.
      The game loses all meaning if you memorize the exact way to diffuse each bomb.
      At least with most speedruns, they actually play the game with glitches here and there, but KTANE speed runs are just a competition of who can jerk themselves off the fastest.

      In case you didnt notice, a random bomb (with the same modules, but with different RNG) is generated every time you start the level.
      This means it's like getting a new sudoku every time instead of doing the same over and over again.

      If you know the sequences, that would pose no issue.
      The point is to receive directions from a secondary source.

    so the point of the game is to not memorize the manual, and you have. Speed runners don't understand the point of video games

      ColdGamersProdutions there are people who play the game casually solo. However most of them use the manual too, either on a printed sheet of paper or on the manual page itself.
