For anyone trying to scrutinize him over minor glitches - HE DOES NOT DECIDE THE RULES FOR THE CATEGORY. Clearing up a few things though: 10:42 Is not a glitch, it is fall cancel. Yes, the boundaries of the map aren't loaded in yet, but that's because the game didn't render the world yet based on his character's collision - he did not go out of bounds, or skip anything. All he did was drop down the ladder shaft without taking damage. If anyone wants to discredit him for using fall damage cancel, remember that alternatively he could have used Spook or taken 10 seconds to go down the ladder and still would've finished the game in under 45 minutes which is undeniably still incredible. 46:00 Is not a glitch either, it is exploiting the AI. Lorian's AI does not detect the player character if the player is directly behind him and doesn't hit him directly. The player can hit Lothric on his back freely here without triggering Lorian's AI to attack the player. Exiting out at doors is not a glitch either, all it does is skip the animation of opening the door to pause IGT and resume it after the door animation is finished, saving around ~5 seconds. Also, until you all have tried speedrunning, don't knock the craft. It's hard as fuck glitchless or not.
For anyone does not understand why some glitch are allowed. The general rule of thumb is: if some minor glitch does not skip bosses and only skip running time, it would be allowed. That is why the Farron keep jump is allowed. It does not skip any boss and only skip the ladder. same rule can be applied to the sword fast health regen glitch. It does not skip boss, only give you the option to heal as you run.
@@thedeadcannotdiehe's not gonna be able to wrap his mind around the meaning of glitchless and is just arguing semantics. People like that should be ignored.
To my knowledge "Glitchless" and "No Major Glitches" are not normally interchangeable, and what qualifies as the second varies heavily from community to community. And that's without getting into the massive debate of "Exploit" versus "Glitch"
The idea was that if a mechanic is used as intended but not the outcome, it is an exploit and not a glitch: Rolling trough damage is used to negate it - therefore, rolling trough fall damage is an exploit and not a glitch
@@ktkyothis is correct, Dark Souls uses your current collision to determine which areas of the map to load. Check out Illusory Wall’s video on collision for a better explanation.
On the farron keep ladder, textures unload, which allows the player to jump down. It is not a glitch, yet an exploit. Exploits do not count as glitches. Summoning Sword Master for Vordt is not a glitch for instance, it is just a game feature
An exploit is a glitch. Same concept different name. It is still a function that is not intended for gameplay. People really do be making excuses for everything .
because that sword gives to him 2 HP every time he equip it, he does this to activate the lyod sword ring buff or just to have an safer amount of health
@@ludovic5482 may be. I speedran Elden Ring and it's ok to do a glitch where you play with Radahn's AI and make him run towards you instead of standing and keep firing gravity arrows. The run is accepted by site. I guess the glitches that are not out of bound or not making you skip a boss (or a "must" section) isn't considered really a glitch. In any% category though, you can just skip half of the boss fights.
Sage can't disappear if he still has one soul mass. It's very difficult but you rotate sage so the last soul mass stays attached to the sage and get the one cycle
If you trigger phase 2 while standing behind where phase 2 spawns they cannot detect you unless you move out of the spot or hit lorian, lothric can still be hit
@@Kamawan0 zero mental gymnastics. A run being a glitchless speedrun or not is defined completely by meeting the parameters set forth in the glitchless speedrun rules or not meeting said parameters. Any run that meets them is a glitchless speedrun. No gymnastics. That's just reality. Suck it the fuck up. You don't like it. You disagree with the rules. Oh well. Get the rules changed if you don't like it but I bet you can't because no matter how important your perspective is in your own mind, in betting no one gives a shit who you are because you and your perspective don't matter.
@@leonardo9259yeah while it’s just standing there doing nothing. There’s also a way to prevent the Abyss Watchers AI from triggering as well, so you’d get the same effect we see here on Princes. It’s unintended gameplay by the devs, definitely a glitch.
It's a glitch people like ZeroFanFare here don't know anything about the speed running scene. So they get very confused and think they know everything about something they know nothing about. Glitchless in a lot of games usually still has a few glitches in it you just have to check the rules.
amazing DS2 speedrun there. i know some people categorise it as ds3 because of what's written on the menu but for our categorisation purposes calling it ds2 makes more sense
anri's sword gives regen to him every time he equips it, meaning he does that to fasten the health regen, it's not a glitch but an exploit and it's still valid to the run
i dont get how their sections are so much ahead in time usually speedruns are like 3-5 seconds ahead max. also how the time was like 20 seconds faster than the best possible time listed. did something crazy happen to make them go way faster
@thenamelessking375 I think there’s rules set by the community for each speedrun category and they must’ve majority decided that this was an exploit that did not count as a glitch
@@baculleon6955 sorry, I never watched a speed run before guess km just surprised that it doesn’t count as time in the game cause it’s being used to exploit/move forward in some ways. Interesting nuance though. Thanks!
the A.i can't detect him because he stands behind lorian so it froze. it will move if he hits lorian, that is why he only hits lothric, it's not a glitch but an exploit, know the differences
The sword heals him over time, everytime he equips the sword a heal tick is instantly triggered therefore it is faster to equip/unequip all the time than to just let the sword be equipped.

By that logic you could glitch out of bounds an run the length of map then.
This ISNT glitchless. A minor glitch is still a glitch.

I will also point out for the people new to speedrunning, glitchless is also known as no major glitches

0:30 speed runners really are built different, imagine how much practice it took to just perfect that double arrow dodge. Resillience of gods
I have to ask how that clip at 10:42 was not a glitch. Or at least, how it's not considered a violation of the glitchless category.
the visuals just don't load properly there, as for the fall damage cancel i agree but such are the rules of the category on speedrun com
Fair enough! I thought you clipped through the wall or something, but I can understand a delay in loading graphics.
The idea was that if a mechanic is used as intended but not the outcome, it is an exploit and not a glitch: Rolling trough damage is used to negate it - therefore, rolling trough fall damage is an exploit and not a glitch
i believe farron doesn't load properly as the player needs to touch the terrain hitbox first (i think it counts the staircaise as well)
@@ktkyothis is correct, Dark Souls uses your current collision to determine which areas of the map to load. Check out Illusory Wall’s video on collision for a better explanation.
I saw all categories. I respect glitches and how hard they are. But I am so fucken love glitchless runs.
Grats for wr!
The way you parried pontif sulyvan's first move was cinematic!!
the sheer amount of records you have is staggering
I love this game it’s been awhile since I played it congratulations on WR 😊
its so good
What happened at 5:03? That like a loading bug or something? Don't think I've ever seen it or noticed it before
if you mean the camera snapping, it's a common occurrence when playing with keyboard & mouse
If you don't move the camera for 5 seconds it rotates itself and when you move it again with a mouse it will do that
At 41 min I didn't even get to Firelink Shrine 🤣
bro u can't be that bad😭

very very impressive i wish could pull off something like this bro
Amazing skill and run! 💯 Keep up the great work!

Definitely not a glitchless run but impressive none the less. Good job sir
47:00 how did u go straight to kiln of the first flame not flameless shrine? just wondering

Dark Souls III as a survival horror game: just run away from enemies 🙂. JK, very impresssive!
insane one cycle on the sage. is that a new way to do the kill? never seen it before.
If you get a soulmass opening, you can one cycle sage
Sage can't disappear if he still has one soul mass. It's very difficult but you rotate sage so the last soul mass stays attached to the sage and get the one cycle
Insane gg sir
at 4:35 why did he subtract a second from the timer?
Game's IGT rounds itself when you exit
Congratulations
Nice world record.
“Glitchless”
Pog insane ring tech GG
How do you split and pause timer for this game?
What happened to the prince's ai during the 2nd phase?
If you trigger phase 2 while standing behind where phase 2 spawns they cannot detect you unless you move out of the spot or hit lorian, lothric can still be hit

I wish there was a commentary that explains why different things are done. Idk why but it seemed like a lot of the boss fights could have been faster
can someone explain how he jumps from high up rolls when he lands and it causes him to not take fall damage?
If you're talking about the profaned capital ik he casts the spook spell which makes you able to fall higher distances without talking damage
@@darioquintero5416he did it in the farron ladder as well as before meeting siegward (the jump from the cliff)
What does "+3 12T 9CR 3B" mean? Anything specific to it?
+3 weapon reinforcement, buy 12 titanite, 9 Carthus rouge and 3 homeward bones
Ahh thank you! Also GG on the run!
Wtf was that Lothric kill if not a glitch?
Why do you get instantly teleported to the bonfire in kiln of the first flame?
Homeward boning to last rested bonfire during the cutscene
amazing DS2 speedrun there. i know some people categorise it as ds3 because of what's written on the menu but for our categorisation purposes calling it ds2 makes more sense
based opinion, AB restricted >>> this
Based
Why does he switches the sword on and off in the menu?
it's healing him a little bit every time
How is 10:43 not concidered a glitch?
Looks pretty glitchy to me lol
By voting of communtiy member... dont ask where are they or do they really exist😂
Lmao how did u count Princes to minor glitch?? 🤣🤣
Also, how did you upgrade your weapon to +3, didnt see you go to the shrine?
Glitch is a glitch no matter the size. By context, its incorrect. But besides that, nice play!
7:05 no dmg taken or death??
10:50 glitchless my ass (yes I read that one guy‘s comment)
I havent finished my character creation bruh
What does toggling Anri's sword at 12:23 do?
that’s what i’m wondering
anri's sword gives regen to him every time he equips it, meaning he does that to fasten the health regen, it's not a glitch but an exploit and it's still valid to the run

Why crystal sage don't teleported??
When she cast the soul mass she doesn’t teleport till they all shoot at you
Everytime you save quit your time goes back a second?
This run is verified? If it is congrats bro!!
dont care what people say a minor glitch is still a glitch
Yea like dude taking no fall damage at all wuh
@coolmangamer1256 you mean while using the spell that negates fall dmg?
@@billythenarwhal1579 what spell?
@@coolmangamer1256 spook, you get it with one of the starting classes it's absolutely necessary for the speedrun

dude u r insane
Only real gamers watch this video on 2X speed
What weapon is that for the two swords?
sellsword twinblade
What is name for Speedrun without any glitches smaller too
Quit outs should be banned in this category
i'm new in this of speedrunning, does you pause the splitter manually? or is automatic?

Amazing
You should do the sl1 Glitchless all bosses and get wr in it

Hello, how were you able to run through the swamp in farron keep?
The dagger's weapon skill makes you jump forward, but unlike a roll it ignores being deep in water or in the swamp and makes you jump anyway
Why do you often unequip and equip your sword while running?
Anris sword has a passive health regen, by spamming it you can trigger the regen every time you equip the sword = fast health regen

Subscribed!
This is a NMG "No Major Glitches" run, not Glitchless
Why does the timer stop for going to menu is that normal? Still fucking sick skill
Because the menu doesn't add in-game playtime, as well they do that to skip animation when opening doors or some sort.

Glitchless but allows the freezing of princes and quitouts. Seems kind of arbitrary if you ask me.

Twin princes glitch invalidates the run imo. That said, awesome skills and great speedrun
Can someone explain why is he clicking in the ari sword all the time...?
The sword heals him over time, everytime he equips the sword a heal tick is instantly triggered therefore it is faster to equip/unequip all the time than to just let the sword be equipped.
