This is amazing. Never seen a speedrun of this game before. Falling into the prison from the nightclub is crazy. And I love how you rescue b12 while still having the backpack thing on you
@@Anemion Wrong name, oops. Seamus clip was a trick we used to do before sleep paralysis was discovered. In the current route, you actually clip through the door to Elliot's house (15:28).
Je viens de finir le jeu deux fois. La première pour la découverte, j'ai mis plus de 7 heures, à discuter avec tous les PNJ et découvrir le plus possible le lore. La seconde, j'ai mis 1h45 et j'étais curieux de voir quel temps on pouvait faire en maximisant les skip et j'ai découvert cette vidéo. Tout celà est ultra impressionnant :o ! Chapeau sincèrement!
Some of them are patched on the latest versions but the devs gave us a way to download the old patch. This category features glitches but as usual we also have glitchless runs
The time displayed by the savefile is a bit messed up in the context of a speedrun because it rollbacks whenever you die/reload a checkpoint. This was probably intented by the devs to help people complete the 2hours achievement but it can also make a slower run look better than a faster run. The timer also stops during certain cutscenes (hence why it's only 43:xx and not 47:xx) and never counts the final walk when we leave control room after the roof opening CS. That's why we use a separate timer that only stops during actual loadings
Is it just me or does it appear there's a mod not allowing the monsters to make contact? (@23:23 they make contact with half a dozen monsters that literally pass through the cat to no affect) And there's multiple times in the video the creatures are physically all over him making contact and yet no damage/latching on 🤔 not trying to make accusations but I started and beat the game yesterday and there was never a scenario in which the monsters get that close and don't attack/do damage, so this isn't passing the smell test here. Genuinely asking can someone enlighten me here what I'm missing or is it evidently cheating to get a fake record? Or just bad game mechanics and therefore luck for the gamer?
@@Majortrader8 Obviously no cheating here but I can see why you think it's abnormal. The Stray speedrun community allows the use of macro: one of its use case is to shake off zurks almost instantly meaning I'm not getting slowed down by them (but they do hit me). Although the macro main purpose is to speed up dialogues and doing cutscenes skips, it trivializes zurks. But to be clear, even if I didn't have a macro here, the zurks wouldn't be an issue at all, you would barely see a difference. The presence of macros in speedrun is often a very divise decision. The intent is always to try to bring more fairness between runners, but in the case of macro it aims to simplify certain aspects of the game. Sometimes its harmless but sometimes it can be seen as lowering the skill ceilling (which then strikes endless debates about whether or not runs/runners using macros are skilled, legitimate, etc.)
Instead of letting ourselves getting pushed through the wall after triggering SP, there are a few frames to jump on ground. It doesn't change the way we activate the glitch
@@AiRbU380 By chance. Or at least that's how most glitches are first discovered. When we understand a glitch, we can look for an other place to use it in the game. Hence more glitches. Some glitches are tied to the game engine so sometimes we already know which edge case to look for (ex: UE4 + tight corners + high velocity -> superlaunch?). Furthermore we have access to testing tools that help us find/test unusual behaviors that could become useful glitches. Some people in the speedrun community focuses on glitch hunting. It's thanks to them (and to the random person that shared a clip of a random bug online) that we end up with memorable runs and glitches.
This was done on pc/patch2. Some glitches have been fixed since but the devs are nice and gave us an option to download patch2 as a beta branch on Steam. For consoles however there's no way to run on that version anymore
I spent over 800+ hours playing this game. I felt it more than you ever will. You might see speedrunning as people disrespecting a game but it's the complete opposite; it's a tribute, a way to keep playing and experience it anew (sometimes in a very different way).
‘Destroyed’😂 this isnt stopping anyone from playing it, if anything people might see this video and want to replay it for a speedrun. And for ‘fame’ this video only has 21,000 views 💀

Can you explain how waterun works?
This is amazing. Never seen a speedrun of this game before. Falling into the prison from the nightclub is crazy. And I love how you rescue b12 while still having the backpack thing on you
i speedran this game for a bit around whenever the hat room glitch was just discovered, crazy to see how far the run has progressed!
Extremely clean routing, great Elliot door clip, first try sleep paralysis, and waterrun...wow. What a run.
Seamus Clip ? Who's that ??
@@Anemion Wrong name, oops. Seamus clip was a trick we used to do before sleep paralysis was discovered. In the current route, you actually clip through the door to Elliot's house (15:28).
The most outrageous thing is that the cat takes B12 to rescue B12.
最离谱的是猫猫带着B12去营救B12。
i just played through this casually but this looks insane nice run dude
Outstanding run bro

This is my first time watching a Stray speedrun, and at first it looked pretty easy…
*And then the cat disappeared into the floor.*
Very impressive!
These glitches are INSANE
I'm watching this game again because I was so moved after watching the ending yesterday.
Fastest of mine was an 1 hour 35 minutes without any glitches. This is still impressive though
gg
gamer
cool
That cool
My fastest time speedrunning without glitches was 2 hours and 20 mins
So, do you need the glitches to get the speedrun and I wonder if they are on the PC version?
Some of them are patched on the latest versions but the devs gave us a way to download the old patch.

I'm new to speed running and I'm trying with this game. And I'm trying on PS4 so can I not do some of the glitches you do because you're on PC?
That's correct. Console versions do not have access to old patches
You can if you have the disc version, just dont download the patch
36:40 so the cat has 2 drones 🤣🤣
shouldn't it be 43:15 the final time, the same we see at the very end?

could u explain the sleep paralysis strat a bit more? cuz i noticed u didn't clip through the wall but still got the clip between he's legs, how so?

@@Anemion ah.. I see, will practice that. Thank you!
how do people even find these random glitches i will never know

what version did you play on

You might finish this game in 47 minute but you can't feel it in 47. . .

you play like a cat
A miracle how can a game this good destroyed just for fame 😢
