Unpin the comment of this infidel and pin mine! This speedrun has nothing to do with the "juxtaposition of speedrunning and modern philosophy". It is what it is. Speedrunning, the art of completing a game as quickly as humanly possible, often seems like a peculiar pursuit to the uninitiated. Yet, within the world of gaming, it is a revered and competitive sport, a place where milliseconds are the measure of legends. Among the pantheon of speedrunning, "Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Outcast" stands out as a beloved and challenging title, drawing both seasoned veterans and eager newcomers to its pixelated battlegrounds. The Enigmatic Appeal of Speedrunning Why do people speedrun games? It’s a question with many answers, each more fascinating than the last. For some, it’s about the thrill of competition, the adrenaline rush of beating a timer. For others, it's a love for the game, a desire to explore every nook and cranny, exploit every glitch, and master every mechanic. And then there are those like Vryndar, who, in a tale as old as the internet itself, seek to reclaim lost glory and vanquish current champions. In Jedi Knight: Jedi Outcast, the speedrunning community has cultivated a niche yet passionate following. The game, with its intricate level design, force powers, and lightsaber combat, offers a rich playground for those looking to shave off precious seconds. The satisfaction of executing a perfect sequence of moves, discovering a new glitch, or simply seeing your name climb the leaderboards is an experience that keeps speedrunners coming back. Vryndar's Epic Saga Vryndar, a name whispered in reverence within the Jedi Outcast speedrunning forums, is a top-tier runner with a storied past. His journey through the game is the stuff of legend-his fingers once danced across the keyboard with a grace that seemed almost Jedi-like. But as with many great stories, Vryndar’s saga faced a dramatic twist when he stepped away from the scene, leaving the throne to a new champion: Smash. Smash, the current world record holder, embodies everything a speedrunner aspires to be. His runs are clean, his tactics innovative, and his determination unyielding. The record he set seemed insurmountable, a testament to his skill and dedication. But in the shadows, Vryndar has been plotting his return, a comeback that could shake the very foundations of the speedrunning community. The Return of the King Vryndar’s comeback is fueled by a mix of nostalgia, competitive spirit, and a desire to reclaim his title. He has been honing his skills, studying Smash’s runs with the intensity of a Jedi Master studying the ancient texts. His aim is not just to beat Smash’s record but to obliterate it, to set a time so formidable that it becomes the stuff of legend. Why do people speedrun? For Vryndar, it's about unfinished business and the pursuit of excellence. The game is more than just a collection of pixels; it’s a canvas for his artistry, a stage for his drama. His return promises not only thrilling runs but also a riveting narrative-a tale of a fallen champion rising once more to challenge the best. The Community’s Role The community surrounding Jedi Outcast is a vital part of this narrative. Forums buzz with speculation about Vryndar’s return, Twitch streams see an uptick in viewers whenever he practices, and fellow runners offer tips and encouragement. Speedrunning is, after all, a communal effort. Records are celebrated, strategies shared, and every runner’s success is seen as a win for the entire community. Smash, too, is not just an opponent but a respected peer. The dynamic between him and Vryndar is one of mutual respect and shared passion. Smash’s record has pushed Vryndar to be better, and in turn, Vryndar’s quest will push Smash to defend his title with even greater zeal. Conclusion Speedrunning Jedi Knight: Jedi Outcast is more than a hobby; it's a testament to the enduring appeal of video games and the communities they foster. For Vryndar, it’s a chance to rewrite history, to etch his name once more in the annals of speedrunning lore. For the community, it’s a thrilling saga of rivalry and redemption, a reminder of why they fell in love with speedrunning in the first place. So, as Vryndar steps back into the virtual halls of Jedi Outcast, lightsaber in hand and stopwatch ticking, we watch with bated breath. Will he topple Smash and reclaim his crown? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain: the journey will be as exciting as the destination.
Look I'm not one to get into trivial fights over on the internet over poorly written AI dribble. But I do want to say that the Smash I know would NEVER pin the comment of a known MBII cheater.

@smash359 Hello, just going around to say... what a legend you are..playing my old fav game and , also I found some amazing liquid dnb songs, thanks to you
Tbh I’d love to join in the race, but I don’t know if I have the patience right now to learn the fundamentals, I still haven’t figured out consistent strafe jumping. Maybe one day. For now I content myself with watching the competition. :)
What is the hidden meaning/theme behind your speedruns btw? To me your runs speak to the eagerness at which we approach life. In speedrunning the goal is to finish as fast as possible, which serves as an excellent juxtaposition to modern popular culture philosophy on enjoying every day, which prefers relishing each moment. Yes, you get multiple attempts in a speedrun, but not so in life. In speedrunning JK2 you have the impending return of Vryndar who will beat all of your runs easily, so you have to get a perfect run before he comes back. I believe Vryndar's reappearance represents the imminent close of death. Please pin my comment to spread the true meaning of speedrunning.
OK, to put into context, I've just completed this game using walkthroughs, and it took me about a week with a lot of confusion and difficulty (as its reknown for being a maze), and you've just speedrun it in about 35 minutes. I didn't even think this game (compared to DF2) could even BE speedrun. Jesus dude!!! 😅😅
How do they get such a big speed boost right from the beginning? I know about bunny hop and can do it myself, but I was absolutely unable to replicate a movement like the author's in the game.
all max difficulty does is make enemies harder to kill, more accurate, and reduce your hp. would only make the run more annoying and much less enjoyable and fun to watch. they stopped shooting right there because we are holding the officer hostage haha
every sith has different force level values and all react differently to actions such as grenades being thrown at them. im pretty sure this reborn has the lowest force level possible, mostly put there to introduce you to saber vs saber combat as it is the first sith you run into.

this is a conspiracy theory pushed by the republican agenda 🧐
Question: "How can you see that the game is based on the Quake III Engine?"
Answer: "henp henp henp henp henp henp henp henp" 😅
And again you have reminded me how deep in the shit I am;/ GG
Jedi Master is back !!! But where is that Liquid DnB ????!!! We need it man ! ❤

Honestly I love watching JK2 runs and I’ve definitely watched this one at least a couple times, can’t wait until the next WR 🙌🏻
Tbh I’d love to join in the race, but I don’t know if I have the patience right now to learn the fundamentals, I still haven’t figured out consistent strafe jumping. Maybe one day. For now I content myself with watching the competition. :)
@@Overcrox wait till you get to some serious skips :kekw: I can't replay theirs moves and I don't even want to think how they found those stuff

watching you do topside is so awesome every time

We're SO back
GG

lots and lots of practice, prestrafing is a massive part of this game
wait i think i saw this in a dream
btw i also had a dream where kyle and lando teamed up to fight systemic oppression. wait can you do a speedrun based on ending racism?
wait no maybe i didn't
@@DrMeowingtonMD yeah you did (im kyle)
what the fukc
don't say that i'm a christian
How much time it will require on max difficulty?
6:33 why they stopped shooting ?
all max difficulty does is make enemies harder to kill, more accurate, and reduce your hp. would only make the run more annoying and much less enjoyable and fun to watch.
they stopped shooting right there because we are holding the officer hostage haha
@@smash359 hah, hostage =D I thought game is bagged )))
how the fuck
i’m the real kyle that’s how
I think you press L to change stance as a glitch right after you take your lightsaber
yeah you get a few seconds after obtaining it to pick which stance you want before it locks
Lore accurate force speed
Why doesn't the sith guys force pushed those nades back at you? Didn't they do that in this game?
every sith has different force level values and all react differently to actions such as grenades being thrown at them. im pretty sure this reborn has the lowest force level possible, mostly put there to introduce you to saber vs saber combat as it is the first sith you run into.
y'all should try this game in VR
i did very recently, pretty cool!
