  • This is a Tool Assisted Speedrun (with commentary!), meaning this run was made using tools such as frame advance and savestates. This is not meant to be a competitive time nor should it be compared to speedruns done by humans in real time; it is strictly to show what can be done in this game if humans were literally perfect. Enjoy!

      This further proves why Kirby is the most powerful, he has 4th wall awareness and uses that knowledge to protect meta knights identity because even if Meta knight moved ever so slightly quick enough for Kirby’s eyes to not track his face to see him behind the mask, we can. Funny to think about this and would also be a funny reasoning of why meta knight so quickly became Kirby’s ally later on because he realized kirby being an all powerful being has a sense of honor that most do not.

    I honestly wish more TAS's had commentated versions. As much as I love the chaos of Tool-assisted Speedruns, they often get really boring to me and I end up either falling asleep or clicking off.

    My first thoughts upon seeing that there was a commentated version was "this is where the fun *really* begins".

      That's kinda the thing about speedruns: if you didn't know any better, you'd probably not even realize how insane the run is because they tend to make everything look _just so incredibly easy._
      (As in, if I hadn't ever played this game as a kid, I wouldn't even realize how much faster than normal the TAS is moving around. I would just think that you always move that fast in this game! Without the commentary, the incredible achievements of the TASer would be lost on many people, especially non-gamers)

    I always thought of stone as a slow, defensive ability, (I used it to cheese the arenas) but it not only being used in the tas but as a main ability is something I didn't expect to see. Also you do get a little medal if you complete helper to hero with all the characters, but I understand why it's not in the speedrun.

    I would somewhat disagree with calling the Copy copy ability completely useless, it allows Kirby to copy abiliites from mini bosses before defeating them, also allows you to copy the Crash ability from Scarfy, an enemy that cannot be inhaled. Also when the Copy ability is turned into a friend, its the only way for the second player to discard an ability and switch to another one without Kirby having to replace it himself, or the partner dying.

    • @SampleChample

      Oh dang I didn't know about the scarfy thing that's pretty neat.
      Also, your point is really valid and I would've gone more in depth in the video if copy wasn't so short lived. The miniboss thing is actually used in IGT speedruns for the true arena which is something I neglected to mention.
      I'll also concede that if it were possible to TAS with multiple players (which I don't think is the case with this game since DS multiplayer is wack) then copy could be a pretty big deal in certain areas.

    I'm literally just echoing the sentiments of all the other comments on this video, but this is so incredibly well done! It goes without saying that you're very knowledgable about the game, and you devoted a huge amount of time in producing such an entertaining TAS. But putting in commentary that not only provides in-depth explanations of the content, yet also does so in ways that are incredibly easy to understand without pausing the TAS or otherwise ruining the pacing of the run is an incredible challenge, and you more than rose to the occasion. Not to mention you're a genuinely funny dude.
    (Adding this parenthetical here cuz I read some other comments after I posted: I personally was also a fan of the "dead moments" in the vid where there was no commentary. If there's nothing to say, I don't think you need to fill it up with jokes or information that's only tangentially related. Obviously you're free to do whatever feels more natural to you, I just want to say that you shouldn't feel pressured to do so. People are watching for both the TAS and your commentary so imo there's no need for your commentary to be forced. Anyway...) I love stumbling across unexpected diamonds like this vid, because I hop in thinking I'll see what's up for a few minutes, and an hour and a half later, I'm crying because it's almost over. I don't know what inspired you to make this commentated TAS, but I genuinely hope its success inspires you to do more, because you absolutely deserve all the attention this video is getting!

    I love hearing commentary on how/why various techs are done in speedruns. Makes it so much easier to follow what is happening

  • @destroyerkitty9434

    Seeing the theoretically perfect way to play my favorite Kirby game will always be insanely satisfying. You are a total badass for putting all this together, my dude.

    Damn I’m never gonna be able to watch a TAS without commentary again, this is so much more enjoyable

    i love it when movement happens to be perfectly timed with the music

  • @simonhoran9775

    I'm always thoroughly impressed by Kirby speedruns. The movement gets absolutely wacky at some points, which most people wouldn't necessarily expect. Great run!

  • @Arachninja752

    This is Kirby's true power. Us feeble mortals were always too limited to use him at his fullest potential.

  • @SpongeMagic

    I really enjoyed this whole TAS. I loved hearing how some of the more difficult techniques were pulled off and it was great seeing one of my favorite games from my childhood be cracked open like this

  • @xYamakaze
    @xYamakaze 2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    This was my favorite DS game as a child and one that I've easily put the most hours into replaying, so watching it get destroyed was very satisfying. Your live commentary was great and helped keep me engaged throughout all of it and explain what exactly was going on instead of letting us mindlessly watch a speedrun without any context for the tricks. Thank you so much for this!

  • @redpop5441
    @redpop5441 2 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    I’m such a sucker for Kirby, ESPECIALLY SPEEDRUNS OF KIRBY. Feels so good to see one of my favorite childhood games speedrunned. Enjoyed the commentary as well as going, “WOAH?!” or “WHAT?!” ❤️

  • @unoriginal581
    @unoriginal581 2 ปีที่แล้ว +21

    What I really like about this video is that you didn’t talk for the ENTIRE run which can be really annoying in these types of videos, especially when there’s nothing interesting happening. You left the self explanatory and simpler parts of the run speak for themselves while also giving great commentary for the parts that needed it, great video all around

  • @mirandasealinia5524
    @mirandasealinia5524 2 ปีที่แล้ว +62

    No way… I just watched this TAS earlier this week and now there’s a commentated version. This was really cool! I’m not too technical with speedrunning but I love hearing about why people do certain techniques and this was such a good watch. I’m also glad we got commentary on concealing Meta Knight’s face and the flexing statues after the bosses, I thought they were a nice touch when I watched the original.

  • @psachickennugget8617

  • @Pirated89
    @Pirated89 2 ปีที่แล้ว +22

    Besides the fact that this is an incredible labor and feat of love, I really adore your commentary. Not only do I enjoy your calm voice in general, but your so informative in a very digestible manner (no pun intended) and don't talk over the whole damn thing. You know just when to sit back and let the tas show itself off. I really hope you do more tas's in the future. Your videos have been an absolute joy to watch. Thank you so much for posting your work for us to enjoy.

  • @JaxontheOkay
    @JaxontheOkay ปีที่แล้ว +4

    one of the things i love about speedruns in general is how it lets us learn not just about how the gameplay works but how the game itself works. how the game was made and how it processes what is being done. it's so cool

  • @squiddlyd755
    @squiddlyd755 2 ปีที่แล้ว +26

    Your commentary really makes the video. Sheds light on techniques I could never have imagined in one of my favorite DS games. Great work!

  • @winterlogical
    @winterlogical 2 ปีที่แล้ว +28

    Sample, this is a joy of a video to watch. This was my favorite game on the DS; my sister and I played the game together so many times. Not to be sappy but I do get a little emotional and sentimental seeing TAS playthroughs like this; it brings back a lot of memories. Plus, it leaves me awestruck at how you never know truly what a playable character is capable of until you see a TAS. I had no idea the movement in this game was so crazy. Kirby gets wing and literally hits the fusion speed boost lmao! Anyway, keep up the great work, I look forward to seeing any of your future videos. Your commentary is really insightful and easy to follow. :)

  • @idiothead5731

    This was probably the most interesting video I've ever watched. TAS'ing is such an interesting method of speedrunning, and I love how you detailed your steps and how you got your nearly perfect run.

  • @feuroux
    @feuroux 2 ปีที่แล้ว +51

    I think this TAS is amazing! There are enough glitches and interesting movement to make it fun to watch but it's not like OoT where the glitches have become so complicated to the point where you don't even know what's going on. Great video!

  • @Jonloo1
    @Jonloo1 2 ปีที่แล้ว +92

    I didn't know this TAS had a commentary at all, this was a lot of fun to watch! Your commentary was not just insightful but pretty entertaining as well, I could listen to you talking about stupid garbage whenever. (Not to imply any of this was stupid garbage, if anything it was smart garbage.) This was a lot of fun both for the TAS Itself and hearing your commentary, thank you so much for to playing this game!

  • @skjertemgjerttem1901
    @skjertemgjerttem1901 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

  • @kotomishione
    @kotomishione 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    this is great both as background sound to do other stuff and is entertaining to watch and listen to the explanation of all the chaos that normally happens in a TAS
    really great vid 10/10 wish there were more of these

  • @Big_Man_Enjoyer

  • @impendio
    @impendio 2 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    Amazing run and I LOVE the commentary, this is one of my favorite games of all time and I can’t explain how much I hate that room at 20:40 with the sleep statues, it terrified me as a kid and still took quite a lot of time earlier this year when I played through the SNES version.

    @EternalTheMandarinGoddess 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Now THIS, right here, is quality. My attention span usually isn't good enough to sit through videos this long, but watched the entire thing in one sitting because it was so enjoyable. The gameplay was the perfect mix of entertaining and chaotic, as any good TAS should be, and the commentary was so good it got EVEN ME to understand what the hell was going on! Absolutely top notch, i'm looking forward to seeing more stuff from you!

  • @thinkingwolf2720
    @thinkingwolf2720 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I grew up playing this game, and it was amazing to see the TAS so skillfully optimize the game's mechanics. That was awesome, I really hope to see you do another TAS Speedrun of another Kirby game one day.

  • @SKScout
    @SKScout 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Honestly, I love TAS commentaries/explanations as they break down speed techs used in games, and just seeing one of the many Kirby games I've played when I was younger getting absolutely wrecked by the power of precision and speed with a proper explanation makes it all the more better!

    Dang, I feel it's pretty rare for a TAS to be just as fun to watch the second time as it was the first. This video is just that good!
    And at the time of me commenting, it seems that this video is nearing its well-earned millionth view too! Absolutely incredible

  • @MarioLOLZ
    @MarioLOLZ 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    honestly, the whole tas has made me really excited for kirby as a whole, and even to play it on a ds with an r4. the tas is really cool, i had no idea you could go as fast as you went in the tas. absolute great job dude

  • @NeviTheLettyFan
    @NeviTheLettyFan 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    That was fascinating to follow, love the game and the way you explained the use for every ability and movement option was really fun to follow! My favorite parts were the uses for fire, it was some fascinating stuff I've always wanted to see.

    Really great video! The commentary was very insightful and fun, and a great addition to make the video much more engaging, especially thanks to the long runtime. I wish more TASers would do stuff like that. The movement was also insanely cool to watch, especially getting to see two of my all-time favourite abilities, Wing and Jet, really be some of the stars of the show. All in all, was a pretty fun way to spend an hour and a half.

  • @PhantomAarantula
    @PhantomAarantula 2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    Geez did this take me back. I remember playing this game in middle school and it's so cool to see a TAS, much moreso with commentary on it. And those icons signaling Kirby's status like "DONE FOR..." hecking spooked me.
