"Concerningly punctual" is the greatest description of speedrunning I've heard.
Actually though xD
I’ve never once been on time.
This floored me!
Consoyningly Punctual
It's beautiful 🤣🤣
@God is a stupid idiot f*cking assh*ole bit*ch Yo wtf?
Jimmy "two-squeaks" didn't even have time to squeak once the poor bastard
I actually laughed, good one! ꉂꉂ(ᵔᗜᵔ )
Underrated
😄😄
Good one buddy
He was asked to collect Vinny but instead he got a Jimmy.
Joel Haver sharing the way to recreate his animation style was the best thing to ever happen
people have done that animation style since the 80's. it is in no way joel's. even though he got huge on making the animation style big in the youtube community
@@showerjedi9627 Manually rotoscoping each frame (as its done since the 80s) is not accessible to most small time creators. Joel showcased how to use Deep Learning to significantly speed up the process and he should get a lot of credit for that.
@@showerjedi9627 More like since the 20´s
@@adityagarg2185 80s? Pretty damn sure it was first used back in 1915, look up koko the clown. Rotoscoping is not new, absolutely love joel/GOAS stlye tho
@@adityagarg2185 oh ?!
That's really nice I'd say
Incredible all the way through. The purposeful rapping of the door to trigger the henchman to clip the player? Genius.
Ye
+Omg what are you doing here
+I can't believe you watch TH-cam videos like me
+I watch all your vidyas
+I just finished watching
That's how mafia works
@@Littlesegitiga i had to translate that to english, bretherin
what software is this 😂😂 ??
I love how every time the colorless NPC gets interrupted by speedrunner being fast, it briefly gains enough sentience and consciousness to open it's mouth and put a "holy 💩" look on it's face right before the next line of dialog kicks in.
I love that
Genuine comedy genius
And it wasn't overplayed, the humor was perfect.
Absolutely this!
I couldn't stop laughing at that part
i am absolutely in love with the phrase "concerningly punctual"
Whatever the heck that means!
@@Goat-on-a-Stick what the christ?!
@@tripakastayw6872 Where’d he go?
@@Goat-on-a-Stick spee drunners
@@ScarletTiger109 what just happened?!
Just as an FYI, the mob boss npc asks for you to find "Vinny Two-Squeaks" but will accept 'Jimmy Two-Squeaks' as well. It's probably a bug but until it's patched this is the faster route as you can collect Jimmy on the way to the vault before meeting the mob boss. I've been able to replicate this several times fairly consistently.
Underrated
420th like
Also if you crouch with the box it works faster, almost intanly.
What game is this supposed to be? I need to watch a speed run of it now xD
Shup
Using the Don's surprised facial expression to the speedrunner's accomplishments and then carrying over that same look of surprise when the Don gets shot was genius.
my favourite part is where he knocks on the door purely so the NPC can open it so it clips into him
It’s how we know this wasn’t a game on the Build engine
That's how we abuse the ai
I went to the comment section just to look if DeSinc was here
@God is a stupid idiot f*cking assh*ole bit*ch If I were you, I'd go get therapy. Its very obvious you're attempting to troll, and trolls are proven to share the same 4 dark traits as a sociopath. Best of luck to you.
Been so long since I last saw you
I love the cut as the boss looks wide-eyed and then goes back to talking like normal
That's how you know the director plays games big time
I lost it when he got whacked
Loved how the npcs are shocked at the occurrences almost like a real personal reaction yet then clip into their next scripted line of story dialogue
Nice dichotomy
Wow!
Dichotomy!
Me not like complicated word
They're still NPC's.
Yes. That skip into the next cut by the mafia boss. It's exactly how we see it.
Are you an English teacher or is that just a random complicated word that you happen to know?
Can we all stop to appreciate for a moment how great a mafia name “two squeaks” is? Definitely don’t wanna earn a name like that!
Yeah, a name to stay away from. People will randomly kill you for no reason other than other guy with this moniker pissing them off
Jimmy's real name is really Marshall.
The squeaky wheel gets greased
Wonder how you'd even get a nickname like that. Maybe he let out two squeaky farts back to back once?
He’s got two pet mice.
I just love how he used the door opening animation to clip through the wall and skip the 'boss is dead' custscene and subsequent fight to just come back and kill the last guy while he is distracted. Beautiful all the way.
This was a masterpiece
@God is a stupid idiot f*cking assh*ole bit*ch
Literally not at all
But why did you say this on this comment thread?
There was no mention of BLM or race?
@@SeanLaMontagne they're trying to get reactions, don't mind him
@@Kimmie6772
Definitely it was just suuuuuper weird 😂
Like complaining about Tiger Woods sex scandal during the super bowl weird.
@@SeanLaMontagne and what about those ducks huh? I swear theyre plannin something, don't know what it is but im sure its something sinister
The box glitching is phenomenal, as well as how calmly they continue speaking while it’s happening! Great work all around!
Hey Joel. Big fan of your work.
Yeah I thought that was cool
A comment from the Inspiration, everybody liked that 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Joel, did you comment on your own work?Phenomenal!!!!!!!!!!
@@anthonyhughes8026 it’s his style but he didn’t make it
Love how the boss kept untucking, then re-tucking his shirt everytime he spoke
The detail!
I love that it's like the ai gains sentience for a split second by how shocked they are. Then the scripting kicks in.
"Jesus" "What the heck?" "Jesus" "What the Christ?"
I lost it man.
Whot just happened?
I laughed til tears came
that was the best part lmao
@@danieltodorovic3879 0:23
i like how the don's animation "resets" after each shocked face
0:10 T-Poses into existence
_"JESUS, what the hell -"_
0:48 Is my favorite, the NPC is surprised yet continues his dialogue as if nothing happened.
Farengar: "fetch the Dragonsto...."
Dragonborn: "You mean this old tablet?"
That’s what I do every playthrough, I go to Bleak Falls Barrow before I even go to Dragonsreach bc I already know where it is and it saves so. Much. Time.
@@muzicalassassin2901 what I do is I go discover most of the locations before starting any quest. Especially High Hrothgar.
@@allninelivez7631 wait that’s actually pretty smart, maybe I should do that xd
@@muzicalassassin2901 it's well worth it. Faster even.
@@allninelivez7631 I should really start fast traveling
Love that Joel has not only sparked an entire new genre of video, but is actively encouraging and cheering on others who are taking inspiration from him. What a great guy 💛
I knew the moment I saw he'd given us access to the HaverTech.
It's rotoscoping it's been around for a looooonnnggg time lol
@@proctoscopefilms No, it isn't. lol
@@OneEyeDollar6 it is rotoscoping, but that takes a lot of time. When Joel gave us access to the knowledge of the HaverTech, it changed the world
@@proctoscopefilms Yes, and some decent-to-good movies have been made using it. This is DIY stuff.
The "glitch through wall" clank just adds that extra mile to the video, it's so good
I love the shocked reaction of the boss before getting back to script.
And his astonished "how/what the absolute fuck" expression lol
This is the highest quality Joel Haver animation not made by Joel Haver I've seen!
I know, right!?
Wait I thought this was Joel Haver what
Helps that Joel basically put out a tutorial for how he does it a few months back. He's uhhh a real cool guy.
@@TheScrubExpress Even the writing and subject matter is very Joel Haver. Spent the whole time looking for Joel Haver acting.
Right!? I had to investigate to ensure it wasn't someone other than Joel uploading and/or ripping him off.
I never realized how terrifying and efficient the protagonist is.
Like say your an npc follower in skyrim. You follow the dragonborn around all the quests and story lines. You watch them demolish Alduin. Rape the vampires. Build mansions for the hell of it. Shit on Miraak. All the while you just blocked their way through doors and carry all of their shit
@@walkingbiohazard6518 ... dang. i can imagen the seem to have monstrous amount power. but then I am reminded of quick saving/loading(future sight) and cheat codes(reality manipulation) and it would look like unlimited powers over reality it self.
@@walkingbiohazard6518 im sorry, do WHAT to the vampires?!
@@walkingbiohazard6518 Imagine being npcs in sandbox games like terraria or minecraft
Some day this random person pops into existence and next thing you know they’ve made the world bend to their fucking will and become nigh-unstoppable
@@the_openers_of_eyes8 My exact reaction as well. I think what they meant by that was the vampires were totally owned (or annihilated) that it was like violating them due to the player's efficiency. At least I hope that's it, I don't think you can actually do that (without mods anyway). But that did catch me off guard lol
I love how the boss jumps from shocked back to neutral when he starts reading the script
lol what kind of video is this. i like it!!!
It's an EbSynth animation. Check out Joel's! th-cam.com/play/PLKtIcOP0WvJDZemPYZZQSqotCgpps5DbX.html
"You deserve the spot as number two in my organi-"
*slams body down
"...With you as my new number one-"
I was laughing so hard I cried, this is phenomenal 🤣
As actual NPCs, can confirm this is completely true.
i don’t think there’s anyone better suited to fact-check this
@@broisyougobbling yes, thank you for your accurate analysis! And there’s no one better suited to be that guy who edits!
thank you very much!
@@broisyougobbling our pleasure! Keep living your best life, mate! May all of your wondrous dreams come true!
I want to give you a like but you're sitting at 369 likes and I don't want to be the one to mess that up
"It was the craziest thing. Frank quick loaded into the bank to skip his cutscene with me and object clipped straight into the vault. I practiced on those lines for a solid month, it would have been so immersive.."
This was the first Haver-style video I ever saw (before I saw any from Joel) and IMO it's S-tier. The acting and writing are pure excellence.
Thanks!
Just imagine, next time you see someone doing some crazy Florida Man stuff that makes no sense at all, maybe you're just an NPC watching a player trying to break the physics and clip through reality for a speed run.
aaahhhh why did you have to say that now my brain is confused
We all know alligators are a dev weapon which is why the Florida spawn point is so popular. The heat, humidity, and mosquitos certainly aren’t the reason (except that one malaria glitch but it’s suboptimal since the patch)
Enrico Pucci in a nutshell.
Big think
Yeah, they speedrun life till death. Although I heard they're not that good. Some people managed to die really early on
I love how everybody sounds genuinely mystified by the speedrunner defying reality.
What the CHRIST!
"need anything bo- what the HELL?"
Their faces!!
1:13 my name's not shane kid
The voices are probably my second favorite part right behind the actual lines and timing. Such quality voice acting!! I can't get enough of this video. I've been watching it every day for weeks
That's great! Glad you enjoyed it so much. Working on a sequel right now!
@@Goat-on-a-Stick is that a grenade launcher from Quake 2 sound everytime he glitch?
I always like to imagine someone in Hyrule Field watching young Link backpedal 3 miles from Kokiri Forest to Castle Town and be like “what the fuck man”
Here comes the champion! HUP-HUP-HUP-HUP-HUP-HUP
@Goat-on-a-Stick HIYA
"Did that kid just blow himself up next to a lake and begin accelerating at the speed of fucking light in the opposite direction?!"
"Yeah man, he's the hero of time dontchaknow"
@@heyyitsultima
Gotta get ahead of that light cone!
@@heyyitsultima Your right his title does make more sense if the player's speed running.
Every once in a while, the algorithm strikes gold with what it recommends to me. This is one of those golden times.
The algorithm recommended this to me like 50 times, so I finally clicked it.
Recommended this to me and I'm laughing my ass off.
Everything was so perfect, the faces, the voice acting, the bodies slaming the table
Thanks so much!
The jarring quick transition between the dialogue, shocked silence, and dialogue again is so good
Imitation is the highest form of flattery. You should share this with Joel Haver I'll bet he'll think it's great. Also anyone who dislikes like this video because it's in the same style. Just remember Joel Haver made a how to animate like this video showing us all how to animate like this. Good job my friend
Joel commented on their other video
@@CheesusTheGreat
And now on this one! :o
Don't forget joel made a video explaining how to make these videos, if he wasn't expecting this then he is stupid.
Just read the absolute last part when you mentioned what I just said, that kinda renders your entire comment pointless since it shows joel not only expected it, but already knew about it
Joel is a Legend
I'm sure Joel would be pleased to see this. He made that video explaining how he made that median FOR people to explore. Remember he didn't have to make that video.
Thought it was a Joel Haver video, very well done!
Same, spot on!
wait, its not?!
Only just realized it after going into the comments and checking the video poster
Yea, it's almost indistinguishable from another creators content. Since when did we start praising people for being followers?
Oh wow I had no idea it was someone else lmao
1:06 how to ask your boss for a promotion
Sounds like the Quake 2 grenade launcher sound, when he teleports/glitches. I love that game. 🙃
The wall glitching noise nearly killed me when I choked on my brownie. You sir have a new subscriber.
I love how they are shocked but the programing forces them to default reactions immediately afterwards
Love the boss’s reaction from being shocked to saying his programmed lines
"Concerningly Punctual" is a phrase I need to find a way to incorporate into a conversation in my day to day life.
I love how his eye just buldges then goes back to normal talking
the vault swinging open to show them like o_0 had me rolling, great work!
It always makes me happy when people enjoy these small parts I work on =)
I love how concerned the boss looks until a cutscene begins and his face instantly relaxes lmao
i get this recommended like 5 times in a week, no complaining tho i watch it every time :D
Need part 2
We'll see 😬
0:20 So, what want to do is grab a box and item glitch through the vault door.
This is where the game really opens up
Now just bhop up the ramp and now that we've got the box This game is pretty much over
this is a desinc reference for anyone who doesnt know, he makes amazing videos
0:39
"Vinny Two Squeaks is siphoning money from me"
*kills Jimmy two squeaks by mistake*
Jimmy was a pseudonym he adopted
You call it a mistake, speed runners calls it "the currently known fastest route".
"We would like to kill Vinny Two-Squeaks as he has less health, and is easier to carry, but for that, we need to find a way to bypass the car requirement, and the only known way to do that requires the vault key/box dupe exploit, which takes at least 28 seconds longer" - The speed running wiki, or something...
in the questline it's revealed that vinny two squeeks changed his alias to jimmy.
He skipped town and changed his name. The poor name change is something to expect from someone bright enough to steal from a mob boss.
They way the boss cuts from pure shock too casual conversation is beautiful
Wait why is this "part 1" now...? I'm excited
😉
Man! This is good, next thing you’ll tell me this whole operation was run by Tony Luzado
Tony Luzado?!
THAT Tony Lazuto?
You're telling me Tony L- what was that?
Even though we just had twenty minutes in complete privacy while riding in the car over here . . .
That was Tony Luzado
Wow, this speedrunner finished the whole game in 1 minute and 30 seconds, maybe if he performed that box glitch a little faster, he could've shaved off a couple of seconds for the world record.
I was looking for you.
Hmm.
You're not funny dude
Needs more Glitch exploit....7/10
Sap dud
I love the shocked horror before the cutscene begins. These are simple , cartoonish fun.
I've watched this at least 8 times because I can't get over the boss's dumbfounded look
The best part is how this is a dead ringer for Joel’s style of humor on top of the perfect recreation of his animation.
I'm amazed I didn't realize it was Joel at first
@@jakemoresea7415 I didn't realize until I saw this comment
Calling his animations “Joel Haver” style makes me so happy. I’m glad there’s still space for inspiration without people jumping to calling things “stealing”. Your work is incredible and keep it up!
Edit: I honestly didn’t expect this comment to get the attention that it did. But to anyone who weirdly managed to see it now (4 months from original posting), yes I do know that this is just a form of rotoscoping and it’s been done before. But besides this creators work being wholly original and amazing on its own, what I mean is the general themes, dialogue, humor, and context are admittedly and beautifully inspired by Joel Haver’s work and I’m sure by the work of many others who also inspired Joel Haver himself. I loved most of the reply’s but I’m just making this because some people seemed to get weirdly salty about my original comment.
I'm old, it's just rotoscope to me
Never heard of Joel Haver, but if you like this style, you might enjoy some of Ralph Bakshi's work.
It's as if no one's heard of roto-scoping or A Scanner Darkly (as one of the more recent examples), crazy world huh! How about these well-informed, tech-savvy zoomers, huh!
@@Skyrilla
to be fair, there are specific elements of this style that make it recognizable as Joel Haver-esque, as opposed to just "rotoscoping", which is very broad.
it's very clear that this person utilized _Joel's specific rotoscoping techniques._
@Dirk Diggler Its more than reminiscent of Joel Havers work though. They had their own processes and even if you look at A Scanner Darkly vs Waking Life which is made by the same people the style iterates. Haver documented his technique so others could use it so its awesome to catch one in the wild!
I freaking adore this channel
The "two NPC's giving their scripted line about the same thing" trope always gets me. "Did you hear- *throught I just heard something!*
I genuinely though this was Joel’s actual channel that I how good this is!
So did I. At least they credit him for inspiration (or something) in the description
same. completely blown away. I thought he was apart of it. they both have uniqueness in Joel's style of animation.
ha ya sheeeet so did I!
I thought it was him, my lord
@@federicoandre5717 why though?
Rotoscope animation has existed for decades now and is not like he invented it.
that last bit with the door was 10/10. would laugh again.
BONK
"eyy what the hell?"
I absolutely love the way you're doing live action animation.
That was insanely well done, and funny as hell.
I'd love to see someone do this for any zelda game, but i don't know if it'd work too well.
I did a zelda themed video, but it's not about speedrunning.
*Search ScottFalco*
I absolutely love how you drew the surprised expressions! The eyes, the mouth, it’s wonderful.
👁🕳👁
its made from a live action video
@@Rolhenw - There is an element of editing to it, though.
@@mokarokas-1727 Yes, but he did not draw their expressions.
i believe it was filmed live action and he used some AI tool to replace the people with cartoons
The double look after the shot was the best
this felt so authentic, I love how Joel single handedly made his own animated skit genre
the sound it made when he glitch in lmaoo i cant breathe
This is the funniest thing i have seen
i'm dying of laughter it's also an interesting perspective how npcs would react to speedrunners i went and eatched your other videos after this but honestly i think this is your best one yet hope there is more coming looking forward to it
Not gonna lie, I thought this was gonna be a Joel Haver video when I saw it on Reddit. Great work man!
no wonder it isn't as good... 🙃
@@EugeneVDebs-mo6dh Idk dude, but everyone is allowed to have an opinion. Check out his first one in this style. I found that one the best out of the 2
@@KnivingCombat777 I said my piece Kniving777
Joel literally made a video teaching people to do videos in this style.
"Thought I heard something."
That Quake 2 grenade sound effect when he glitched with the physics! Nice!
Came here to see if anyone other than me knew that sound. Not disappointed.
TRESSPASSER
This just means that the player character is grenade jumping.
So many fine details, amazingly done !
I have watched this a dozen times now and I love it.
Part of the mission is finding out that "Freddy Two Squeeze" actually goes by the name "Jimmy Two Squeeze."
I thought it was “Vinnie Two-Squeaks.”
I love the theme at the end. I also loved how you used it twice. I also love how you used the theme to censor the dudes language.
Thanks!
These videos are amazing bro
this is EXTREMELY authentic to the joel haver style to a point where i would unironically believe this was made by him if someone told me it was
The "thunk" and T-pose every time he glitches, oh god my sides 😂
Instantly subscribed. This is one of the best videos I have ever seen.
Wow, thanks!
This animation style is like The Town With No Name remastered for HD.
This needs to happen
Not to mention the guy who comes in the office at the end is the spitting image of the protagonist of The Town With No Name
Considering how Town With No Name was also rotoscoped, just with far fewer frames, this is surprisingly on point.
Do it, animators. Give us the Town With No Name experience we need.
It’s more like The Last Express
@@TheJoeyfleming not familiar with that one.
0:48 i love the mood shift
Thank you! Glad someone could make more Haver-esque animes! I know tney take a lot of time; thanks for your dedication!
Oh man I haven’t laughed this hard in a good while. Absolutely love these animations always so darn hilarious.
0:28 "Did you hear somethin'/Thought I just heard somethin'"
Wonderful little reference there.
I actually found Goat before I found Joel, so now I get to go back and rewatch these to fully appreciate such little touches.
*looks back to see tracker*.
.
*Proceeds to talk top secret stuff in public.*
"Must've been my imagination"
TONY LAZUTO??
reference to what?
Remember Joel has a how-to video for these so unless he actually comes out and says otherwise... I don't think he minds. He probably enjoys that people are using his animation style, I'm guessing. Anyway this video was really quite great, I had a good laugh. Well done.
Rotoscope style is not a new style
@@seanbeadles7421 It’s a specific style of rotoscoping, though.
He commented and definitely approves. Every video on this new channel is hilarious and clever too
@@seanbeadles7421 technically anything involving greenscreen is just fancy rotoscoping.
The base method doesn't change, but you can create an entirely new form of the base
Ok so normally I absolutly HATE these types on videos but wow you guys made me laugh a ton in a minute, very well done
The last half had me laughing till I cried 😂😂😂
I love their D: expressions
Had no idea this wasn't joel. Amazing work with the sound effects, pacing, and animation.
this might actually be my favorite video on youtube of all time. well done
Ok ur animation style is insane, instant sub. Please keep making video's 🙏
1:22: that "What the hell!?" ended me. Lmao
I rewatched this 10 times in a row already and can't stop laughing. It's a masterpiece!
This is genuinely one of my favorite videos on here. Thank you so much for this gem.
That's high praise from any person. Thank you so much!
I appreciate the Quake sound effect. Felt like an homage to Quake done quick and SDA.
og gamers represent
We need a game where the NPC responds to glitches. Imagine Oblivion with self aware NPC's.
intentional glitches in games suck because it ruins the fun of finding something the devs couldn't fix
@@quasur57 It can be handled as a fallback, like if a player enters a locked area without finding the key the NPC's could have a surprised default reaction to it regardless of how exactly the player managed to sequence break there.
@@TheRenofox Deus Ex 1 used to keep track of stuff like that and bring it up in dialogue. Always amazed me when I'd think I was glitching something else and I get called out by NPCs.
nah man we need that for Cyberpunk 2077
imagine Oblivion with self-aware developers :)
This is the best meme of speedrunning I’ve seen since ever. And the T-Posing killed me every time!
