Half-Life 2: Cutsceneless in
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 มิ.ย. 2024
- A speedrun of Half-Life 2 - Cutsceneless Mod (v2.2). This mod aims to remove as many cutscenes as possible while staying true to the original game.
This run initially started in 2016 with an older version of the Cutsceneless mod, created by Toxijuice. In 2018, with the release of an updated version of Cutsceneless by Chili N' Such, the run was restarted, yet died the same year on d1_trainstation_06. In 2020, the new team decided to finish the run, with the final segment recorded on January 19th, 2023 and with a final time of 18:48.465!
This run was completed in 1131 segments (618 demos and 513 save/load buffers) on Easy difficulty. This run was done without void clips.

10 seconds in and this is already a certified sourceruns classic
10 seconds in and I think you fell asleep because the gman is still doing his cutscene in a cutsceneless speed run. This is a classic alright, a classic bait and switch.
6:38 "we don't go to Ravenholm"
Yeah nope, looks like we fly past it.
Imagine Dr.Breen casually sitting doing his buisness and in 20 minutes dude in an HEV suit comes rushing into your office and destroys your regime completely
In our time it would have been 20 minutes, but for Breen it would have been a week because of the teleportation from Nova Prospekt back to Kleiner's lab
Yeah it would be like this: Dr Breen gets informed of a strange maniac zooming through the country at light speed before infiltrating nova prospekt and disappearing. Then nothing for a week so he would be relieved that its over, but all of a sudden the maniac would zooom through the destroyed city 17 and finally infiltrate the citadel and kill Dr. Breen
@@cbtillery135yeah but gordon isnt regonized by the combine yet because he just flew through the universe
7:36 I can picture Gordon tippy tapping over the water and the leeches trying to nibble his toes but failing miserably
10:19
Rebel: Look for the hoppers they're everywhere
Gordon: I am the one who hops
This is crazy, so perfect it looks like a TAS.
wait, it isnt TAS?
@@moonTerfixx. Well in a way it is a TAS as it uses the source pause tool which is used to make segmentet runs. But not TAS in the way that the segments were played completely by humans and not tick perfect inputs in a TAS software.
This feels like the classic HL1 speedrun
These guys really finished the entire game faster than I can get past Route Kanal, goddamn. It's fucking amazing.
And took less than a minute to complete Ravenholm. I remember being stuck there a tiiiiny bit longer
@@villephful I was stuck for 30 minutes since I was stuck on the moving car
10:19 "The hoppers, they are everywhere"
*hops right past* 😄
Gordon isn't afraid of hoppers, he is the hopper
The movement is so beyond perfect it's hard to believe this is done by humans, even segmented.
I remember when the first Portal TAS came out, I thought segmented source runs might be a thing of the past - I'm so happy to be proven wrong, lol
18:51 when you run so fast you just activate noclip on reality
You will never be a woman.
The Airboat and Jeep parts are super impressive, love seeing the player fly through the open areas like a bullet lol
Gman: "You have 19 minutes to live, Dr. Freeman"
Gordon: "Bet"
That's insane route optimization. I can see why it took so long!
10:39 "Wait for us!" Cried the rebels, Gordon didn't wait for them a second.
This is just 19 minutes of Ahop and Stucklaunch porn, and I'm all here for it. Reminds me a lot of the old HL2 TSA clips from way back when. Excellent work here, folks.
why are you talking about porn
@@sock_investment we love cooming
This is the most eyecandy speedrun ive ever seen.
Its like a wet dream for speedrun watchers, no cutscenes, no bullshit, only speed and skill
1:23 "Pick up that can." "No, fuck off."
Imagine just waking up one day and seeing this dude fly through city 17 and blow up the citadel in 20 minutes. Bro made the 7 hour war look long
At this speed & scale you notice how perfectly game was actually designed…
The music in Water Hazard has never fit the gameplay so well before. Amazing.
this is amaze balls 😘
the devs of the mod should have had the overcharged gravity gun explode the moment the elite sets it on the table. Would have been an epic way of skipping the cutscene.
hoppers are everywhere, and freeman is one of 'm
>cutsceneless mod
>keeps longest cutscene in the game when the players stuck in the breen pod
I was today watching some of these speedruns this channel has made and then this thing pops up. Today it's a good day
Lore accurate Gordon Freeman
"pick up that ca-"
_gets head split off by freeman jumping backwards at mach 10_
Seeing how far advancements in ABH have come, I wonder if someone's made a rear view mirror mod so you can practice.
Here before it blows up.
Bro reached the end of Nova Prospekt before regular people leave the customs interrogation room. 😂
I wanted to make a smartass comment about something like, "20 minutes later" but ingame there's the week timeskip because of the slow portal. Well, whatever. This is crazy impressive, I love seeing a perfect segmented run.
11:13 "follow freeman" yeah goodluck mate
This was such a spiritual experience, I love you
It's Amazing.
birb
Damn, that nova prospekt hole-in-one was satisfying.
Wicked run, what a throwback
"Hello Dr.Freeman" and heeeee is gone.
I have never seen a speedrun that turned an FPS into a flight sim.
Insane.
i love how "your not supossed to be here" syncs perfectly with the gameplay
Yes, it's as if the game was made for speedrunning :)
Dayum Pegas is INSANE! :o
So its like what quadrazid did back in the days, huh?
This one needs a lot of explanation, but the movement and technique is on spot, great job!
you think the reason why Gordon couldn't escape G-man's prison thing was because there was no space to bhop or ABH?
Feels like it should be watched in reverse with all this backhoping.
"Don't move" says the combine at the train station
Next minute Gordon flies through all doors and right past Barney 😆
well done, such an amazing speedrun
After obsessing over hl speedruns forever I feel like I've reached nirvana lol
You can endlessly look at 3 things:
1. on fire
2. to the waterfall
3. how freeman bhopping water hazard & our benefactors
Imagine having spent hours of your time developing these maps and this gameplay, and then you watch this lol
Gman: "You wouldn't need all THAT to imprison Gordon Freeman."
Gordon Freeman:
There's just something about that Half life 2 aesthetic.
Can't wait to see these strats used RTA
GG, very enjoyable watch
Congratulations, I didn't blink for 21:48 minutes!
6:57 Fuck this double grenade skip is crazy!
pegas is great, he blew up the game hard. кароче красавчик!!!
this was worth the wait
accurate representation of how my parents used to go to school
"We need to leave in 20 minutes."
"Aight, lemme finish HL2 real fast."
everyone: "how is he able to do that"
Dr. Kleiner: "It's all within theoretical physics"
"Cutsceneless" - Speedrun starts with a cutscene
wish I could go through water hazard that fast
RIP HL21. And hello to HL2-19
Great run! Takes an unbelievable amount of precision. It's a shame that once you change sections, you reset your health, PegasDoggeAM went from 2hp to 100 through the loadscreen (4:03 - 4:05). I wouldn't call that staying true to the original game.
I think that's save deletion, which is a Source Engine thing and not a part of the mod. You can see some short 0.05s segments for performing save deletion in the timesheet.
This is done in RTA runs as well afaik
10:38 wait for us! LMAO NOPE
I was expecting a "bla bla bla mr freeman" at the end i'm disappointed.
None the less this was a great run !
Damn, I've seen a lot of HL2 speedrun strats, but I barely recognize any of these. Crazy.
Rise And Shine MR Freeman, (18 minutes later) Gman: WTH?!?
"cutsceneless"
*literally starts with the cutscene*
Masterpiece ❤
The movements tech is such a joy to watch
i remember folks talking about this back in 2018 when the restart happened, i assumed it was another for the graveyard. nice to see that wasn’t the case
awesome run
You know, I'm interested to see a short interview of the major players from runs like these.
I find it a bit stale to see names I'm not familiar with (since I only view content from SourceRuns directly).
I'm looking to know something like their motivations to grind these segments, maybe something like what was the most personally challenging part etc.
Brilliant speedrun, really enjoyed watching this :)
16:50
alyx: ah... gordon.. noo
gordon: *AAA-*
amazing run
An Exciting Spin on a Classic Run, Brought to you by Sourceruns!!!!!!!
1:21 Combine: Pick up that can
Gordon: Sorry but I'm in a bit of a hurry🤣
Insane. Gratz)
Doctor: you have 21 minutes and 48 seconds to live.
SourceRuns:
11:55 my skip 😎😎😎
"Cutsceneless"
*Watches one (1) second of the run*
*cutscene*
Well done!
Oh, cou can NoClip Dark Energy now for some reason.
After all these years you still manage to surprise me guys.
truly amazing how much you guys can break this game lmao
What the actual fuck, this is absolutely insane!
2:50 Коробка Пегаса затащила ))
"Rise and shi... oh, where the hell is he going?"
rise and shine mister freeman :)
6:07 That was smooth af.
Someone get this to desinc immediately
water hazard was just godtier i replayed it 3 times
bro ended hl2 before I pick up that can 💀
18:53 I don’t know why he used noclip to finish this game lmao
It's a cutsceneless run so there was no need to sit through it
this is noclip, but accessed without cheats. it's the same concept as 4:40 where you exit a vehicle in an unusual way
Looks epic
Amazing run, as always
I wonder why there is an elevator sequence in cutsceneless. (Our Benefactors chapter)
It is long and there is no control. Feels like a cutscene
And the whole conversation with Breen. That's strange
I assume you mean the pod sequence up to Mossman? I guess there's not a good way to skip that, unless you either totally edit the level, or you just have a transition that fades out and loads the next map. Not sure why the Breen bit is still in there either, but I'd imagine the same thing, no real good way to skip that, as there might be several triggers that need to be re-setup, compared to the Red Letter Day interaction which is just basically "open the doors, remove the characters, and set the teleporter to open"
Speedrunning is the video game equivalent of “I can cook 1 minute ramen in 59 seconds”
1:21 pick up that can gordon: NO
How come the gman can do that, but the last time I said "this is where I get off" and then got off, I got arrested for "public indecency"? Unfair.
Damn, fastest civil protection has ever responded!
bro finished half life 2 faster than the train ride in hl1
4:45 that almost fit the music
