Devil May Cry 3 Vergil Speedrun World Record Explained

[@koin799]

I can't help but think the entire first half of the run is just vergil having fell from the tower, and trying to get up fast to avoid arkham making fun of him

[@simonrief1013]

Or don't wanting to be absent when Dante is coming to challenge him at the different stages of the tower...

[@cryguy0000]

Now he's a little motivated

[@simonrief1013]

@@cryguy0000 Nice XD

[@wildwade7930]

Trying to stop Arkham from going full Jester on him.

[@yungmidoriya4382]

Lmaooo I can see him getting cocky, then slipping off the side of the tower, and on the way down tryna stop himself from falling, but fails at that too.
Then while thinking to himself & feeling Pathetic, he says to himself: *"This is why I need more Power"*
And then straight faced & secretly self embarrased does everything in his power to try and make it back up to the top, in which he runs into Dante and fights him to take out his frustration by pretending he's been waiting for Dante the whole time to keep up his image.
XD xD xD xD
Lmaoooo Vergil is legit just a troll xD ...who trolls himself as much as he trolls Dante, but tries to act serious...then theres Dante...who trolls endlessly which reminds Vergil how much of an imperfect goof he is making him more cheesed then he already is xD XD XD

[@alastor8091]

I love how you kept thinking you'd screwed yourself and ruined the run only to come out on top of the world. Good show!

[@simonrief1013]

That's the secret: Don't expect something in relation to others, but in relation to your self ^^`

Nah. DMC5SE doesn't have anything even slightly cool to show off other than Vergil. Literally less content than 4SE. And I'm excited to play him, no doubt, but at best, I'll just buy the Vergil DLC.

[@ultraspinalki11]

@@eduardokerber2931 I think the only way to make the Arkham boss fight fun is having a 2nd player join you to take control of Vergil/Dante.

[@fredforshort]

It is in a speedrun such as this. By the time you get to Arkham you have enough holy water to spam him down. Here, Geryon actually needs to be fought all the way through. Not Arkham.

Amazing run, to see that it's the first sub 1 hr, yet it's 59:05, and there's still a lot of optimization that you can do, less errors etc.
It'd be phenomenal if it went from 1 hr to 58... still, not a lot of people are running dmc3, and it's such a great game. Hopefully, this garners more attention for people to run this game.

Interesting commentary on explaining the speedrun, do you think next time you're doing this kind of commentary you could mute the video so that the background don't talk over your commentary (as its quite distracting and can be difficult to hear when both are being talked over one another) ?

@@WaifuRuns what I meant was in the commentary itself where when you're explaining instead of lowering the volume of the background can u perhaps mute it so the background you doesn't talk over your explanation during the commentary ?

Im not suggesting to mute the submission video to speedrun.com itself.
I was suggesting that for the separate commentary videos like this where you're using the said speedrun attempt video while explaining certain parts of specific strats or reasons of why something was did in that manner...etc, that when you're explaining things you can perhaps mute the background audio in edit so that the commentary doesnt have the background video talking over your explanation.

With Geryon - if you do enough damage on the low difficulty levels is he guaranteed to get up/do his chariot swing attack and not simply teleport away? Last time I played a lot of DMC3 I got frustrated with it, as watching the DMD strategies Geryon seemed to 100% attack, yet when I played on the VH and below levels he was much more 50-50 on whether he'd attack or teleport away despite me executing nearly the same strategies.
