do you like this format for long runs? or do you want me to do heavy commentary over a full two hour run? lmk and also follow me on twitter @tomatoanus
Gotta be honest, you got me good with the tenpines bluff questline, i genually belived that by giving them 2 bullets they would fight the raiders by themselves, LOL
The explanation for the sound bug: "r, I'm trying to sneak past the triggermen to open the door, but I'm dummy thicc, and the clap of my ass cheeks keep alerting the guards."
I really love heavy commentary speedruns, and you're among the best out there in my opinion. This was a great video, and if it's easier to do your commentary this way I'm all for it, but personally I prefer seeing the full run. Either way, you make a commentary and I'll happily watch it!
If every speedrunner did explanations like this detailing why and how skips are done the speedrunning community would be so much better for it. This is a fantastic video, thank you.
I love your heavy commentary runs, I always learn a lot about speedrunning, and wish more people did this. Also, I really liked this format for your long runs, keep at it!
Not gonna lie, the sight of you sprinting up the stairs to see your dying son, just to immediately unload your pistol into his chest was funnier than I expected.
This video is old but. At 15:50 talking about the noise Nick was making. Its a bug that is triggered by fast traveling when your companion is doing a animation that has a sound attached to it. It can happen to any NPC but is worse with companion's as they stay with you for some time. Happens most often with the armor workbench. It can even have sounds stuck to things near the NPC that was making the noise. The rusted car shell between red rocket and sanctuary in my last play had a gun reload noise stuck on it. You can prevent it from happening to companions by raising and lowering your gun right before fast traveling. Also related is the companion stuck smoking a cigarette bug. Fast traveling when a npc is doing a animation bugs the game out alot apparently. If a companion is stuck smoking a cigarette, take them to pipers house and let them sandbox around. let them finish the smoke, and they get the animation unstuck.

2:32 "You have to draw the line in the Sand somewhere. You gotta make a statement. You gotta wake up and ask yourself, what is glitchless willing to put up with today? Not this."
I rarely can catch streams but I absolutely love your content, and your Bob Ross paintings! I love seeing my favorites games run by a super genuine dude. I hope you have continued success and I’ll try and catch more streams in the summer (as nighthawk9001). ❤️❤️❤️
I was here live for this! I'm so hype you made this cause I know the any% route but I wasn't sure of everything you were doing in this run so the explanation really helps but I also really like that you posted the unedited version so I can follow along when I'm learning to play the run myself
As someone who doesn't really have the time to watch full streams or videos but really enjoys the routes and skills used (and loves the Fallout series), these videos are perfect. The insight and clarity of your explanations is also fantastic and really easy to follow - probably the best I've seen on TH-cam. Great job!
I did really enjoy how you presented this run, spliting it down into interesting parts, but conversely I wouldn't mind a longer video as I've been using your comentated speedruns as a sort of background noise to tune out of everything else and focus, so far I've really loved your runs and I love your tone of voice the whole way through. Thank you for making these amazing videos and keep on getting better!
I loved the video. The humour was perfect and spaced well, the editing was smooth and unobtrusive, and everything in the run was explain incredibly well. I'd love to catch one of your streams sometime... You definitely have a new follower!
Really enjoyed this video format. For those of us that watch but dont do speedruns, explanations on the whats and whys of actions taken are essential to enjoying the experience. Grats on a great run.
i think the format is super interesting! I love to see how all the strategies are explained and brought down to the average level so everyone can have fun and understand, maybe even join the speedrunning themselves! Thanks so much for your content tomatoanus!
Daved Thompson The way FriendlyBaron does it, he only shows the missions and moving from one mission to another, not including sidequests or anything, and speeding up the gameplay for either speedrun or casual to keep them in roughly the same areas to make it easier to compare.
The shortened "highlighted" version is great for people that have maybe seen the run before but giving them the option to see the full run is great as well. The best of both worlds.
I wouldn't consider the quick save/load to avoid fall damage in FO3/NV a Glitch, I would consider it an Exploit. In my book a Glitch is breaking the mechanics of the game and an Exploit is using existing mechanics in unintended ways.
I really enjoy long-form content, having someone go into depth on how they do something adds another dimension to the game play i'm watching. They try to do this in things like AGDQ and such but to varying degrees of success, because its on the spot with speedrunners as the commentators they may not be used to public speaking leading to awkward and ultimately boring commentary. While this is the exact opposite, not sure if it was scripted but the articulacy and constant commentary on what you were doing was entertaining and interesting. Very nice video and well earned sub.
I really like the vid, don’t think you need to worry about your videos being too long because you fill it up with lots of content and it doesn’t feel like an empty video that you’re trying to fill with nonsense. Keep it up, looking forward to more stuff like this in the future
@@tomatoanus Ah, alright. That's totally understandable tbh, everything's always about synths with the institute. 😁 But awesome video! I really enjoyed it!
Great video. Explaining all of the wacky things you do in a speedrun is the best part of the endeavor in my estimation. In service to that, you can prepare your explanations perfectly in a commentary format.
I must say it is so much more enjoyable to watch speedruns in this style. Where you cut off the boring parts, the talking with twitch chat parts and instead comment on what you are doing and why you doing it. Alot of fun to watch
Personally I like this shorter more streamlined format for your videos, but I also wouldn't say no to a 2 hour long speedrun commentary, I find them both entertaining.
I really like this form of video, but I also enjoy the idea of you going over the whole speedrun with commentary. However, that's more because I find you entertaining, and is not as much driven by the amount of infomation gained as it is about personal entertainment.
This highly edited format seems to have a lot more information compressed into a smaller period of time, making it more readily approachable by those that are just beginning to view your channel.
absolutely impressive video, thanks for showing the possibilities! I loved fallout 4, played it through twice with ~200h of gameplay each time. so, clearly the direct opposite of what you did. but you showed some kind of deep knowledge about this game and thought out everything. that's a real speedrun! not these other videos I saw, bugging through walls and sh*t like that. you made it very far and thanks a lot for showing "the other way" to play this great game.
I really enjoyed this format, and think it gives you the opportunity to lay out your thoughts and strategies in a clearer manner than you could during the run itself. Also, having the condensed version of the run lets you strip out the more tedious sections, which makes for a more entertaining viewing experience.
Fun video. I love speedruns and explainations of the tricks done in them, so I love commentated runs. This is a nice middle ground between a full speedrun video and a speed trick video.
This is hilarious, Especially the tenpines bluff joke, amazing. The format is really good, doing heavy commentary over a full run gets quite boring after a while, and like this you can cut through all the boring shit.
15:18 - I've had that exact same audio glitch several times. Usually it's with a companion using a minigun and when they put the minigun away, the sound of it firing continues. I've also had this happen with a wall-mounted turret where the audio continues after you destroy the turret.
great run and great format. I always think post commentary style videos are the best but shortening the run down to only the most interesting parts is honestly a great idea, I wish more speedrunners would do this
Even though it doesn't bother me to watch full runs, this one was great, i still got everything you said, and what you were trying to teach and didn't even have to watch all the parts of running long distances and other stuff. I think this is future speed running videos. Another great one! keep them coming!
1. Love the format and the video all around, great no superb work 2. Thank you so much for all these tips to make my gameplay a little more fun, I’m especially going to use that vault and nick valentine speed ups
this was really cool, i really liked the heavy dialogue explaination and that i can go back and look at the long version if i want to see something specific.
I love thick commentary over a short period of time. This is top tier, because tomatoanus is very generous when doling out ammunition to the people of the commonwealth.
do you like this format for long runs? or do you want me to do heavy commentary over a full two hour run? lmk and also follow me on twitter @tomatoanus
Wait nineteen hours ago?
@KillShotNeo yes, i upload my videos and leave them as unlisted so that they can render on youtube and be in hq when i make them public
I like heavy commentary for 2h because I get to hear you longer?
Yes keep the pace up its much more relaxing just to have you with some background noise while playing games or just chilling out.
Fam I would sit here and listen to a 10 hour video of you commenting over Barney episodes if I could
"Use a big guns skillcheck to convince him"
Yeah that's one way to put it
I laughed out load (literally) when I figured out what he meant by that
he's gonna put that fatman *somewhere*. Where would you rather he put it?
I mean, it's hard to come up with a good counter argument when you don't have a brain. Or most of a head.
yes omg yes
I thought holding a big gun offered special dialogue for a sec
Gotta be honest, you got me good with the tenpines bluff questline, i genually belived that by giving them 2 bullets they would fight the raiders by themselves, LOL
whatre you talking about? i did help
@@tomatoanus i mean,, it IS called tenpines *bluff*
There was a surprising amount of set up in that joke. So much so you took it seriously for a while haha.
Well he's right "giving" them 2 bullets exactly completed the quest :D
I was suspicious at first about it but the joke went on for so long that I started to believe it... until he killed them.
I love the deadpan jokes. "Big guns skillcheck" and "give them a couple rounds of ammo" were the best.

This is just crazy to watch, when you finished I was probably still building stuff in sanctuary
Wait you got past the loading screens?
Uhhhh... Should I use the big purifier or the little one...

I'll go for the little one. Okay, onto red rocket!
So it's a glitchless run or no?
tomato: Yes
Also tomato: ehhhhh
It just works! :-P

Glitchless, not exploitless. (At least that’s how I would define it)
