I love this game, I love the remake, and I'm just so impressed by people's mastery and execution in speed runs. outstanding gameplay. thank you for the entertainment!
I got this game last week and its difficult for me of where to go. i never owned the first prime on gamecube, but on remastered its outstanding. Great Job.
That is something I have never heard from a speedrunner, but it also seems interesting that the Ice Beam is the most recognized weapon for abuse... I have no clue what I just got done saying...
And as soon as you reach metroid prime you're on him like white on rice and you're chasing him down into the pit, hes got a target on his back and the chase is on!
Any tips for the jump at 23:20? I want to get a e-tank in HoTE and that jump keeps killing all my attempts. Im not even speedrunning, just doing this for fun.
I was thinking, "wow, this speedrun actually looks like something I could do" and then you did that *thing* to get Ice Beam Also love your just lack of respect for the Space Pirates
I like to keep each section roughly 5 minutes long, it’s just a personal preference When it’s highlighted in blue, it means that is the current section I’m on
I don't know how you can put up with using pointer controls for a speedrun, even in my casual playthrough I got sick of how quickly they drifted off no matter how I tried to calibrate it (with 2 different sets of joycons, including a brand new set) and needing to constantly press the ZR button to recentre it got old very quickly. Kinda sad how the 15+ year old tech with the Wii Remote in the Prime trilogy worked better than new tech. I got sick of it and ended up switching back to the classic GC controls. Are you just constantly pressing ZR the entire time?
Go watch a Prime 1 (Trilogy) speedrun and it’s hilarious how much more movement and gunplay potential they have compared to Remastered. Still, the game has never looked better.
That's not how it works in the original game - they did a good job of keeping all the upgrades independent from each other. But idk about the remaster.
what does bf mean in ibbf? ibbf =ice beam bf. seeing this makes the remastered version easier than the GC pal version. had so much trouble with the omega pirate XD
@@reyalsdiortem4164 now that i think of it, it is. never did the speedrun on the GC pal version since it i couldn't get SJ. heard it was impossible to get SJ right when you land on tallon IV on the pal version.
Control scheme choice seems a bit weird though. Dual-analog + gyro enabled should be faster. It allows for much better movement. Switch Dpad for beam and visor so that you hold a button to switch visor. You can still switch without standing still if you quickly switch to claw-grip to switch visors.
@@reyalsdiortem4164 Nah, you're wrong. I've seen your entire run and you could literally save minutes by using dual-stick + gyro compared to the slow-ass turning that's constantly present in the run. That's not to say I could do anywhere close to as good. But having played years with the dual-stick + gyro method through various games and 100%-ing this game with it, it is pretty easy to notice where you could save time using that control scheme. Though... it would take some practice. But it's very comparable to keyboard & mouse in terms of speed and accuracy once you do get used to it.
@thenonexistinghero I respect that. I would love to see you speedrun this game! You could already save several minutes over my time using dual stick + gyro, and push the WR even further, which would be awesome. That’s up to you tho. I’m gonna stick with pointer controls
How did you skip the cut scenes for when Samus arrives at Tallon 4 and skip the escape scene leaving where you lost the power ups. I beat the game 3 times and could never skip little scenes
Unfortunately the game locks you out of one of the artifacts (same in MP2:E btw). Iirc the Phazon Elite's capsule (Artifact of Warrior) can't be destroyed with power bombs until you pick up the main upgrade.
Is it possible to charge shot repeatedly without having to fire a few beam shots first? That's my one gripe about the remaster is there's seemingly no input buffering like there was in the original titles.
@@Deepestdrip Perhaps, but even if there is a patch, a lot if not most of the glitches used in the run would be patched out. So in the context of Any% speedruns, buffered charged shots wouldn’t be worth the sacrifice of the glitches :/
@@reyalsdiortem4164 to add to this, in most speed run communities, most games are played in their release versions anyway, to keep the records comparable
I never played casual you should be ashamed of yourself. I can’t watch this video… I want to watch it. I want to enjoy it, but I can’t. I don’t care how fast you can do it. Chances are I can do it just as fast this is the only game in my entire life. I have not been able to beat on the most extreme difficulty, I will watch someone play on the hardest difficulty but I can’t watch this.
@@reyalsdiortem4164you can definitely do it. I noticed you could easily shave 1-2 minutes or more off your current record. Areas to work on will require faster boss battles including Ridley, less back tracking, more speed, more enemy avoidance and consider getting the morph ball first, instead of the missiles in the very beginning. Overall very impressive speed run. 👍
![Metroid Prime 2: Echoes - Any% Speedrun (0:46) [World Record]](/img/n.gif)
I’m amazed at how many of the original prime strats still work in this game. Even without scan dashing
You mad lad, you beat the game faster than it takes me to decide what's for lunch

Nothing wrong with that lol it’s always enjoyable to see someone enjoy any game for the first time. No matter how of is the game
19:47 holy shit
It's weird watching the beginning part of the run without seeing samus clip through the wall 6 times lol. Beautiful run.
Or getting double jump super early. But in due time we’ll find a way….somehow
@@someonespc269 already did th-cam.com/video/M5Nkmx3w0KU/w-d-xo.html
agreed
Congrats for the WR!
Impressive. Very good job.
Why did you use the ice weapon against Ridley at the end of the fight?
Ridley is weak to ice in this game, so you only have to shoot his mouth once to stun him, unlike every other weapon where it takes 2 or more shots
That is something I have never heard from a speedrunner, but it also seems interesting that the Ice Beam is the most recognized weapon for abuse...
I have no clue what I just got done saying...
@@LegoSonic-p2f maybe you had stroke?
@@reyalsdiortem4164is he weak to ice in the original GC version or just the remastered version?
And as soon as you reach metroid prime you're on him like white on rice and you're chasing him down into the pit, hes got a target on his back and the chase is on!

Is the run valid in an ng+? I mean by the scans
That cuts scan time and likewise the run time itself
Still, good run
It’s still valid. This run is verified on the speedrun.com leaderboards. Meaning NG+ is allowed
Yes, the community has agreed that NG+ is valid for runs
I was thinking, "wow, this speedrun actually looks like something I could do" and then you did that *thing* to get Ice Beam
Also love your just lack of respect for the Space Pirates
Awesome job! Question though. Why did some of the artifacts and items later on not have any timestamps?
Also why are some times in blue?
I like to keep each section roughly 5 minutes long, it’s just a personal preference
When it’s highlighted in blue, it means that is the current section I’m on
Impressive Speed Run

can you jump on the ball tunnels at Flaagrah without Space Jump, to jump over to the bomb slots?
Unfortunately not. There's a force field that pushes you away from the bomb slot when trying to jump over to it w/o SJ iirc
Le me watching a run for the first time and discovering you can jump while being in morph ball ? Whaaat
The Game itself is a masterpiece but this, Its more then a masterpiece Its Just perfect
Does the Phazon Suit give you subaquatic freedom? Since you're supposed to have Gravity to get Phazon...
My guess is that you're supposed yo get the gravity suit before Phazon, so getting the phazon suit gives you the gravity suit retroactively
That's not how it works in the original game - they did a good job of keeping all the upgrades independent from each other. But idk about the remaster.
Good stuff!
happy i never speedrun. Metroid is just too much fun!
1:13:02 actually opens with regular bomb too :)
Yes it does :) I just used a power bomb to kill some of the metroids
Can you do speedrun of prime 2 and 3?
what does bf mean in ibbf? ibbf =ice beam bf.
seeing this makes the remastered version easier than the GC pal version. had so much trouble with the omega pirate XD
Ice Beam Before Flaahgra. Pretty self explanatory :)

There is no “faster” control scheme, it’s purely preference. I perform better with pointer controls, so that’s what I use

@@thenonexistingherook then. Run the game and get the world record using the control scheme you think is better.
I had no idea the motion controls were faster
How did you skip the cut scenes for when Samus arrives at Tallon 4 and skip the escape scene leaving where you lost the power ups. I beat the game 3 times and could never skip little scenes
is Power Bomb early possible without Space Jump?
I'm not sure, it might be
Same it could be but notvsure
Had no idea you can jump in morph ball mode 😂 😅
Yo, whats up with that Essence strat??? It seems to die faster if you don't spam in hypermode
It does I've used it and yes it deals more damaga
1:10:20_Why do you need to get the Power Bomb again?
Unfortunately the game locks you out of one of the artifacts (same in MP2:E btw). Iirc the Phazon Elite's capsule (Artifact of Warrior) can't be destroyed with power bombs until you pick up the main upgrade.
Is it possible to watch these runs live?
I do not livestream my attempts, so no
@@reyalsdiortem4164 ok good to know thanks
28:25 So funny how you 'bugged' the boss. 🤣
I already have more time in the game and I only just beat the first area
Du är geten bra på metroid prime 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😮😮
How many times did you play the original as a child?? :000 awsome run!!!!
This is Amazing! And all I've done is enter my name." ... Thrill House
how are you scanning instantly like that?
If you start a new game off of a completed file, everything you scanned carries over to the new game
@@reyalsdiortem4164 thanks! I've seen some runners still not do this, I wonder why
I don't understand how you defeated the omega pirate so quickly....
oh baby
40:00 Sad

Stop uttering nonsense 😑
Whatever drugs you are on, can I have some?
How did you instantly scan the elevator activators at 7:15 and 33:48?
I have the same question
New Game+ (NG+) if you start a new game off of a completed file, all of the things you previously scanned carries over to the new game
phazon suit but is actually gravity lol
Are you gonna try to beat your own record?
Yes. I would like to at least get sub 1:40 before I stop doing any%

De que sirve jugar un buen video juego si no lo van a disfrutar
Para saber todas estas cosas se necesitan muchas horas de práctica... muchas mas horas que jugar el juego casualmente como la mauoria lo hace.
Non-Gamecube controls? Ew. Disliked.
You can turn on that feature if you want in option setting on the game…
