Dracula: What just happened? I revived only 11 minutes ago, and all of sudden, I find myself dead. But for whatever reason, my minions are mostly untouched.
And I though Dracula's re spawn and death in Portrait of Ruin was quick at least back then he was in front of the hero. No wonder Dracula cursed Simon in the next game.
@@pikool Dracula: "Hey, uh... I can come too right?" Simon: "Not now, Drac, I gotta-" Dracula: "We can finish the fight over there..." Simon: ".... .....the bus leaves in 5 minutes"
Well considering he never claimed to actually be good at games, and in fact no longer even plays them when not on his channel then...yeah it sure would.
Simon is a bamf. He heard Dracula needed killing and walked up to the gate and 11 minutes later he is done. Bask in the glory of the old world as you are surrounded by unimaginable riches and beautiful women.
That's not a good way to tell. Would an AI have known to get hit by enemies to circumvent floors? The human element is more powerful than an AI's ability to input commands at 100% efficiency.
I first played Castlevania in 1990, & I finally beat the game for the first time in January 2018 (I could never figure out how to defeat Death). How exactly did you defeat the first level Giant Bat in one hit? If you go up the stairs, will it always follow or will it fly in another random direction? Does anything happen if you collect all of the games' hidden treasures, or are they just for points?
If you get hit by an enemy at the same time you attack it’s a critical. Attacks on stairs also do four times damage to the bat. That’s how you kill it in one hit.
Raiden III’s stage 2 theme, Electric Resistance is basically a cover of Vampire Killer. The stage 3 theme is also called Dawn of Sorrow, which can only mean the composer is a Castlevania fan
This is one of my all time favourite games and one of the best games ever, a timeless classic. Played this through last week. But this speedrun is very finicky, there is a lot what can go wrong like damage boosting jumps, jumping over the dragon head cannons or walking through the axe knights. I can beat this game easily but never tried to speedrun it.
I would love to just beat it once. And I have tried for many years. The furthest I have gotten is the grim reaper stage, then it falls apart with the knights and medusas. lol
Dracula: *Revives* Dracula: ah yes, time to bring darkness to the world. ah look, another belmont approaches my castle, prepare the defe- Simon: *kicks in the door to draculas room* Dracula: what the- Simon: *kills dracula*
How did he beat the 1st boss with one hit? Is that a trick I never heard of? Btw I passed this game the hard day back in the day lol. Wouldn't get another game until I beat the one I had.
It's called the critical hit glitch and he uses it on Dracula too. If you hit a boss on the exact frame they hit you, for some reason it does significantly increased damage. Watch the Dracula fight, on the 2nd appearance his first whip does only 1 bar of damage, but when he hits him at the same time he gets hit by the fire it drains 5 bars off Dracula. The first boss is just so weak 1 critical hit kills it.
Very nice speed run. It's funny watching younger people do these. Not a speed runner but a old school player of this game when it came out (I was 7). The only reason this guy knows to do the level jumps by getting hit by a enemy is bc of old school gamers non stop playing back in the day and passing the secrete along. He's this good bc of the internet. We didn't have the net back then to learn walkthroughs or glitches. I'm not hating. The kid put time in this game. Congratulations sir.
Stryker Very well said, just like life...he learned from the knowledge passed down by all the players of the past. Now he looks like a Castlevania phenom haha.
If you hit a boss on the same frame it damages you (like the first bat) it causes a one hit kill. This is also how some hits on Dracula do so much damage.
I have been playing this game since it released in 1986, and even I was very impressed with all the tricks to cut time down. Best I could do is beat the game with 1 life. This guy's a genius.
There is something going on in the game itself. If you go to the 10:22:25 mark of the speed run you will see that KMAC game is moving a bit faster. When this video goes up the stairs the screen goes black before KMAC's yet the Skeletons in the next screen are moving faster and KMACs jump before this guys video (sorry dont know your name), which allows KMACs run to catch up.
This was a fascinating watch from beginning to end. I don't the remember the last time I yelled "Huh?", "Dafuq?", and "Oh, come on!" at the screen this much.
This's too impressive for words. I can't ever imagine the patience and dedication it must take to pull off something like this. This definitely raises my hype for Castlevania in Smash even further!

Took me 32 years to finish this game. That's almost as impressive I guess.
You went for the slowrun world record.
Z7Games the game is super hard but it only took me like a month or 2 to beat
I hear you, I didn't beat Mike Tyson until 1999.
it is... in a different way. ;)
I gave up, I simply can´t get past the grim reaper. It was not meant to be.
The soundtrack of this game is amazing
And its i grill who wrote it!!
Check out 8 bit music theory for some in depth analysis
Renan Samersla cradle of filth did some song's for castlevania
Was gonna say, the songs were great for early 8 bit Nintendo
yeah, kinda sad first level was the only good nes soundtrack released.

This would blow AVGN's mind
Well considering he never claimed to actually be good at games, and in fact no longer even plays them when not on his channel then...yeah it sure would.
Or that this is apparently James' favorite series, and he's never ever going to be good enough to do this. So it'd blow his mind.
Nah

Yeah but now he needs to speedrun Simon's quest
I'm not sure "unimaginable riches" and "beautiful women" belong in the same sentence as "Old World".
Damn right they do
For once, a player owns Castlevania...instead of Castlevania owning the player.
A game that took me 23 years to beat, he beats in under 12 minutes.... That's awesome.
mrrivets10
23 years .. ur pathetic
Well, some things are more important. Besides, it's "you're"....not "ur".
Lol i feel ya man. As an adult i noticed alot of the video games i would play on the snes when i was young were easier than i remember.
Whoever says "ur" instead of "you're" doesn't have the right to call anyone pathetic. Seriously.
I remember spending weeks on that damn Grim Reaper boss. And he kills it without even letting it move.
Never thought I'd watch Owen Wilson speedrun Castlevania

That's awesome 😂😂
Do you continue to play once you get the world record or is your life over
You can't just keep a WR, you gotta cement it. Push it further and further second by second until you are as far ahead as you can be.
No, you never had a life to begin with
an ai should play it and get the minimum possible record, so human players may know if their world record is improvable.
That's not a good way to tell. Would an AI have known to get hit by enemies to circumvent floors? The human element is more powerful than an AI's ability to input commands at 100% efficiency.
Bloody517 maybe ai can learn this kind of tactics but i dont think they it can learn glitches and bugs. So, you may be right.
11:23 That had to be the luckiest break I have ever seen in the history of playing this game. That was amazing to watch. Great job!
Just finishing the game is already incredible
12:00 you covered Castlevania in 11 minutes, that's what happened. Congrats, Dracula is pissed even more than usual.

@@Olinser That sounds like a pretty cool mechanic, if it was intended.
@@rtiq270 might just be one of the first instances of a "counter-attack" feature
For the bat specifically you also get a damage multiplier of four times for hitting him while on the stairs. Otherwise the crit alone won’t kill.
Very impressive. Most amazing Castlevania run I have seen! Congrats!
Wait, Kmac as in the meme guitar guy is also a speedrunner?
My thoughts exactly!
It took me 25 years and the advent of save states to beat this migraine of a game and you did it in 11 minutes. Wow.
if you watch this on 2x, he finishes in 5 minutes!!! OMG!!!
Jim Bones yes the power of math is quite impressive.
🙀
but if you pause it, he never even get throught the intro.
I’ve played this game a thousand times and had no idea that you could walk through an enemy after hitting them with Holy Water. This was nuts.
I'm just going to say it. "What just happened?"
METR0lD THAT just happened
Dracula is asking it for sure.
"I need to calm down for a little bit". How much more chill could this guy get? I want to witness such depths of calmness.
THIS GUY IS EXPLOITING ONE OF MY FAVORITE GAMES!!! THIS IS A SERIOUS VIOLATION!!!!!!!
"i dont have anything else better to do" is the best way to start a wr run
This run is the third fastest in the world by literally a couple seconds! Nice!
oh! so THAT happened! thanks for telling us :)
You really are a buzzkill. Now go do some aea and don't come back...ever.

What's the deal with killing the boss with one hit (bat and mummies)? That isn't what happened when I played!
Critical hit from hitting the bat as it hits you as well as 4 times damage for hitting him while on the stairs.
Also there is a damage multiplier for hitting the mummies when they are grouped together
Love his reaction, so genuine but reserved at the same time.
