I love the fact that he takes some breaks in the endscreens sometimes, possibly to dry off his sweaty hands or simply to take a sip of his drink and gather himself before the next insanity.

Ive many things to say, but I'll boil it down to two: 1. Merry Christmas you filthy animal. 2. This stuff is the stuff that inspires me to make monster mods for doom.
The start is so perfectly rehearsed I didn't even realise this was a new run. These runs blow my mind every time. That rocket jump in dead simple was beautiful...
It's a chaotic game, especially when you hurry. You should see his Plutonia Nightmare run, incredibly high skill on display, but by his own admission he had some pretty significant lucky breaks to avoid his demise. Doom's pseudo-RNG can be either merciful or merciless.
@@tenhundredkills See, you can either pray to RNGsus and full send it on a single run, or you bully the game for years on end until it gives you the result you want. I believe zero master is the child of RNGsus and lady fortuna and therefore doesn't even have to pray, the RNG is given to him.
That is nuts. First time I've ever seen anything like this. Pure chaos. I mean.. I know it's just down to timing & manipulating the game mechanics. But DAMN ! It actually looks "easier" by avoiding hoards of Revenants, Mancubus & Arch Vile's .. however there is nothing easy about it. I don't go above Nightmare without smashing something
"Vortale, this demo was recorded while watching him play runescape" That you are doing this while being at least a little bit distracted is legendary in itself.
I looked away for a little bit and missed the entire video. My God. Your Doomguy is covered in astroglide or something, holy shit. And using the "grab" method to flip the switch behind the yellow door in MAP17... Holy shit, amazingly done all around.
Just wanted to say I blew about an hour trying to do that strafejump at the end of The Focus after seeing you do that. Been playing Doom all my life and even I feel like I gotten better just from watching this lol
I was shocked to see the mistake on Dead Simple. The fact that that happened and you still beat Looper by a second really shows the potential for a even lower times. But to get it all perfect in one run.... that's the struggle.
The mistake on downtown was even more shocking. While I think there are other people capable of getting WR, I don't think enyone else would be able to do it on the run like this.
Current best time is held by Looper at 17:29. Almost half a minute faster and I think it can be done even faster than that. Although maybe no one is willing to try. Don't know how many tries go into this. I saw Loopers run and there were many things that could have gone faster.
This legend just keeps getting better and better. He keeps improving and optimizing his runs. It has no end. That’s what I love about him and Doom. There’s always a way to improve. It’s a gift that keeps on giving. Well done, Zero! Merry Christmas!
I have watched this at the same time I read your Pastebin, stop the video at every levels to see your description of the map, and I love it ! GG for this run :)
When you sent me the message saying that you did something "fucking crazy" I thought you killed someone. Turns out I wasn't entirely wrong, as Looper has just been blasted. Excellent run holy crap! Don't forget about us when Mt Olympus comes to pick you up!
I find it ironically funny and amazing how, even though we have these "amazing new game engines with quality design and graphic production", it all still pales in comparison to the great Father of FPS's, Doom. Amazing run! Hope to see more
Amazing run! Congrats! After the miss rocket jump on the map with the mancubbi I thought "well.. that's over"... but then I checked the title and didnt believe you still managed to beat Looper
How crazy run this is. Contains a few major mistakes but is still the new world record. It is mindblowing how you managed to turn this one for victory. Astonishing run!
I've watched MANY Zero Master runs, but I've never seen anyone control Doom Guy like he does. The precision he has with the controls and navigating the map/coordinates of a room is like he actually IS Doom Guy in the rooms/areas... almost as to how WE (the viewers) would control our own body in actual reality/physical-space. It's majestic talent/ability.
"Playing in windowed mode". I feel you dude. Resetting in fullsecreen, especially after a frustrating failed attempt only adds to the frustration. Great job nonetheless!
''Attempt number: 4766'' Holy doom gods. zero-master puts the meaning of ''master'' to a whole new level. And just a 1 second improvement! Doom 2 speedrunning is about to get hot.
It's amazing to me that you can take a nearly *_thirty_* year-old game, scale up the resolution a bit, and still have a fantastic experience like this in 2020. Compare it to what else was coming out at the time. It's just outrageously good.
ZeroMaster tends to trade the world records in Doom speedrunning back and forth with some other guys, like 4shockblast, Looper, Ancalagon, Stx-Vile, etc, there's a small group of extremely skilled runners who can in many cases actually compete with ZeroMaster. If you wanna see something real crazy however, look up his Nightmare difficulty speedrun of Plutonia, that's actually something that nobody but him has ever done single segment.
@@0neDoomedSpaceMarine yes, I know this. However getting WR after mistakes on maps 07 and 13 is something I honestly belive only ZeroMaster culd pull of.
i did weeks over getting through Doom 2. Admittedly I like infighting and exploring and don't have a lot of free time. I watched this playthrough on my lunch break.
I love how you pushed the Arch Vile into the end of level teleporter in Monster Condo haha. I wish there was a bug in the game that put him in the next level at the start with you! That would be hysterical.

A par time here is a genuine failure lol

Zero Master is raising the standard of Doom everyday
Loopers failed demo zip had 63,000 (although that was across a few WRs)
No love for Looper?

the fact that there's about 10 seconds worth of mistakes/bad luck in this run is absolutely ridiculous

@@0neDoomedSpaceMarine Every time I see Zero Master's runs, all I can think is "Just how much did he pray to RNGesus?".

Decino: attempt number ##
Zero Master: attempt number 4766
Yeah, new way to take 200/200 on 13:09
did he really used rocket exposion to grab Megasphere through wall?
@manowartank That is exactly what this madlad did.
Most runs end in the first few maps. So, full runs are very rare.
Nirvana was flawless, specially the yellow bar glide.
Imagine wanting to bring an archvile into map 28 😂😂😂
You mean 28 bro ;)

On a first day of Christmas, ZM gave to me...
This very fantastic speed run...
Congratulations on this one!
it's nice to know that someone still plays in 2020, this was the first game I played as a kid
Lots of people play this. Huge modding community as well
Already 40K subscribers, keep it up! I hope you get 100K too quickly and the first TH-cam button! Happy new year bro! :)

Call me weird, but Bloodfalls is my favorate midi, and Zero, you da illest!

Always satisfying to see - what I like to dub this moment as - _the meatball & meat shield double kill._
thanks for putting the timeline and description in the video's description, helps a lot
Absolutely amazing run, scary to think 15 secs could be saved from 07 and 13 alone. Happy to see you are still grinding ZM and merry xmas to all.
All on Christmas Eve!
You humour me greatly with these new records.
You are an absolute legend! There is just no other way to put it, lol.
Here forever man, thanks for all the runs and KEEP DOOM ALIVE YEAAHAHAHH

Ok. To each his own.
A real time hand cam would be cool. He should set that up and put it in picture and picture

Pure skill mans mechanics are godly
I was wondering when Zero Master would be back to beat Looper's 17:55.
Awesome work once again, Zero Master.
I'm pretty sure this guy is the best Doom player when it comes to all of the games rather then only one.

Congrats mate!!!

1 second faster then the world record. Great job. Amazing run

That movement tho

Thoughtful of you to bring Barney with you to the Spirit World.
