      It's hilarious, but I don't blame speedrunners. They are not only competing against other people, but they are competing against themselves (and often against RNG that may screw them over). They are often working to get closer and closer to the perfect time (whatever it is for the game) and in the case of SMB, I hear the World Record is 1 frame off from being perfect.

      Specifically regarding Logan, I interpreted it less as "I hate this game", more as "Take that!" It's like a buddy challenging you to a race and gloating about how badly you'll lose, and after you win you say, "Yes! Fuck you, man, I beat you!" You don't hate him, you're just rubbing it in and putting him in his place, haha.

      Honestly, the run seems worth the watch. Just a canadian dude playing a janky game in japanese very, very quickly. He's got some stylistic flourishes too; playful movement when there's no frames to be saved.
      Holy cow there's a lot of tech and small skips in this game. We've got pause buffering, jojo references, all sorts of clipping through the map, and ridiculous movement with sonic. He also died once and I think I spotted him failing 2 or 3 other tricks.

      you dont need to be competent to speedrun, I've begun running Celeste and my current PB is roughly 1:20:00, which is nearly 50 minutes behind WR, and 35 minutes above what is considered a decent time. I don't care tho because I keep seeing myself gradually improve. Just pick a game that you enjoyed casually. I recommend doing what I call a "fast playthrough" where you go through the game with little to no practice of skips and such, see what your time is, and set a goal from there. I've already cut my celeste PB in half from my 1st run.
      just remember to not give up, and have fun.

    I doubt you'll read this, but I subscribed to your channel when you uploaded your second world record progression. I was very impressed with the quality and of your videos, I was shocked to see you had so few subscribers. Since then, I believe I've watched all your videos, and I'm glad I got to see you and your channel grow into what it is now. You were the first channel I used the bell button for, and whenever I get a notification, I order a pizza and enjoy your videos. As always, keep up the fantastic content, never stop doing what you love.

    A new record was achieved a few days ago, a 22:28 by Dage4. This run was awful, but a new Eternal Engine skip (probably saves about 30 secs) gave him the world record. So a sub 22 is humanly possible.( 21 is real!)

    I'm not sure most of us like going such long times without a video, but I'd be damned if I didn't say you make up for it by putting out some of the most consistently high quality content there is. Never stop, my dude. We'll keep watching. Even if there are huge gaps. If you remain this consistent, so will we.

  • @Tama-Hero
    @Tama-Hero 4 ปีที่แล้ว +18

    I'm a little chronologically confused about the timeline of when some of the skips were discovered. I used to follow a lot of the individual level runners in 2007, and it seems like a lot of the skips that were mentioned as being "discovered" in 2013 in the video were already in use back then. There are videos by user SadisticMystic of skips like the original Crazy Gadget skip and others being performed in individual level runs in 2007, granted these were on the Dreamcast version of the game. Is that the distinction? That because they were on Dreamcast they had to be re-discovered for the GameCube/PC versions? Anyway, otherwise a great video, I just find myself more confused now about Sonic Adventure 2 Battle runs.

    Words cannot describe how excited I am for this video, I have literally never played any of the games you have covered, but I love your content for the sole reason that you so thoroughly explain the history of the speed running of these games in such an excellent way. The games aren’t the main character in your videos, your narration and editing are, and the videos are all the more better for it. Keep up the good work Salt :)

    The description of the knuckles stage is not correct. The three pieces do in fact all spawn at the same time, but the radar only shows the currently active one. It's possible, by coincidence, to run into the second or third shard while looking for the first one. Doing so awards 1000 or 2000 points, whatever the maximum for fastest speed collection is.

    • @YujiUedaFan
      @YujiUedaFan 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah, I've seen the second/third Emerald Pieces while looking for the first one before.

    • @Sypaka
      @Sypaka 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      So, what if one makes a map of all possible spawnpoints and a probability chart for each of them?
      And then, what decides to spawn a shard at a certain point? Every RNG has a flaw.
