It does help a lot that all the key codes in the game (barring one) aren't randomised. So if you already know them, it saves loads of time. You can pretty much skip nearly all of the otherworld hospital this way.
I'm actually surprised how well this game speedruns, I've just gotten towards the end on my 3rd playthrough and I'm at the 4 hours mark just trying to be quickish for an ending I missed, I fully expect sub 2.5 hours for myself with some practice, haven't speedrun anything since RE2 remake, I'm excited!
I absolutely see this game being popular for runs. I am a casual gamer, RE2R made me try speedrunning for the first time, and I am seriously considering trying this game too.
I can’t wait to watch all these times drop, I love watching new times! I can’t wait to see this glitch-less run go down to like 1:45:00. Haven’t been this excited for speed runs since RE2 remake
tbh never been a fan of glitched runs that require an outside program to glitch the game. i enjoy speedruns that utilize what is within the game. as you said though nothing wrong with it just personally never been a fan of speedrunning a game using something not in the game to glitch it to get a good time.
actually used this as a reference guide for getting the Faster than the Fog achievement! Really helped me with the apartments as that was the only area I couldn't fully remember the item spawns in
No doubt it's going to be 3, maybe 1 after that, or the room. But no way they're remaking 1 anytime soon...Unfortunately. Which is sad because I loved the atmosphere in SH1 along with the metallic sound effects.
I figured out that if you pull up the map and exit it as you go into one of those sections where you'd normally have to squeeze through, it'll let you run through as if it's not even there. I'm not sure about the timing or the frames but I've managed to pull it off twice on accident. Should be good for speedrunning if it can be done consistently.
Nice run man , but jesus what an aggrevating run to listen to. Not only the monsters scream, but hearing James Uaaah Uaaah Uaaahh in every corridor I should be glad the cops hasnt arrived yet lmao.
Totally agree with needing external programs to speedrun a game. I love all kinds of speedruns, from crazy broken ones to glitchless but when glitches/skips/strats are only possible through programs or editing cfg files I'm not into it. I do appreciate the lengths people will go to break a game nowadays though, ain't like it use to be where you could just jump at a wall a certain angle and go through it.
Speaking of glitches I noticed in the labyrinth that if you try to jump off a ledge that you cant jump off of James kinda freezes until you dodge him backwards Maybe nothing but i feel like if you do it right you could probably glitch OOBs Now for the record i know nothing about the glitches or speedruns of the remake So if this is the glitch mentioned at the start that requires 2 fps then my apologies
I don't know about the charge cancelling strat. James builds speed up until he hits max acceleration, there's a couple of frames in the charge cancelling strat that brings James to a complete stop meaning he needs to build up that lost speed again. I get the idea that if you cancel the attack it brings James to max speed with a short lunge added in, potentially saving a few secs over the entire run. But you only get that max speed for the length of the charge, losing speed that didn't need to be lost waiting for his stamina to recover. Using it from a dead stop such as after picking up an item, or a cutscene could be a better use for the strat than just spamming it. From what I can see James doesn't get exhausted from sprinting as he did in the original slowing him down, so wouldn't it be better to stay at max speed for longer rather than constantly having to build that speed up? It's a newish game at this point, and as you said not many people will be running it, so we'll see in 12 months if the runners still spam.
just adding one thing to the RNG discussion in the chat - you can't eliminate RNG by sitting while peeing -you see, if you weener long enough it can lean on to the front wall of the WC cup, and when you try to pee your wiener will make a small fontaine and you'll pee in your face or pants depending on the strength of the stream of the urine.
For now it's Bawk and KatLink with the quickest runs. Of course others will show up to make things Real Interesting. Let's just hope Spicee chills the heck out!!! 😅
Im in the hospital right now and as I very slowly walked around I was just thinking what a dizzy and dark nightmare it would be to try and do this fast
I'd be curious to know how you train for the speedrun, Bawk. For such a confusing game, you have the route already figured out and memorized, and in such a short time. It's very impressive, how do you do it??
Holy shit 2 hours?,it took me 1hour to get to the apparments in new game+ even knowing where to go and what to collect,im going for a "get 6 endings in a single run",just multi tasking required items so i can reload saves at the hotel and get all the endings im missing.
I really wish i had the time to figure out speedruns, the last speedrun i did was RE3 Remake and I did it naturally around I think 45 mins without help.
This was awesome man GG’s! Currently on my first run and trying to get that under 10 hours trophy lol, this is gonna help for the final stretch as I’m in the hospital about to get my first bracelet at 6 hours 30 mins. (Was taking my sweet ass time at the start) then seen there was a trophy so thought I’d go for it 🤣 earned a like and a sub from me brother!
1:14:10 At first, I thought that happened in my game as I was running alongside the video and jumped at the same time. Thought either my game glitched or I turned something on. But then the next one at 1:15:07 ...I was like, yeah this mofo added that in. I was still stuck on the keypad at the time. hahahah.
Dude the item interaction is atrocious. Love the remake but a consistent point of annoyance is just getting James to pick up an item I’m clearly focused on
I played it with my gf to show her an old classic. We inspect everything and i let her do the riddles. Playtime 16hrs 11sec. I thought "yeah this is doable in under 10 hours, BUT HOLY SHIT bro 2 hrs? :D Good job!
lol you replied to my comment about how janky item pick ups are in this game and now I def see why it's one of my least favorite parts of the game you can't grab stuff on the run without the angle being absolutely perfect maybe it can be fixed in a patch hopefully. I also found some shotgun ammo I just could not pick up i think it was the hell hospital or the prison super annoying they are just stuck in the ground.
This James is processing his traumas before breakfast
Bro was equipped with DBT skills before entering the town 💀
2 hrs is kinda fast for a no glitches run.
What kind of glitch are they talking about?
@@M.sami12they mean like game glitches that allow people to clip through walls or getting pass certain areas
I mean survival horror games usually can be speedruned in quick time myself i could finish some of those in decent time

You're a legend man. I'll be referring to this for my -10 hour trophy

it took me way too long to realize he was doing the screams when james jumped down those holes
"Bawk, why are you doing Glitchless?"
_"For fun :)"_
Never lose sight of why we love video games

I really enjoyed the remake. I hope we get sh1 next.
True true

@@yosutzuhruojhow come no SH1 remake anytime soon? Legalities?
@@yosutzuhruojStory wise they can not release 3 before 1
Given that SH2 sold well, its matter of question now
I just completed the game for the 2nd time and used your video for the speedrun trophy. Got it done it under 5 hours. 👍
Thanks for the speedrun! thanks for all the great uploads lately
The UFO/Dead James theory means that SPEEDRUNNING IS CANON

invalid run, glitch at 20:41
those hours are GONE when you know all the puzzles lol :D
Nice run man , but jesus what an aggrevating run to listen to. Not only the monsters scream, but hearing James Uaaah Uaaah Uaaahh in every corridor I should be glad the cops hasnt arrived yet lmao.
I would go insane having to do this charge move over and over lol
Just hear James constantly NAURGH!
Keep the speedruns coming! This game is awesome
I haven't bought the game and this guy, and half YT, already made speedrun.
Thanks man! Just got the platinum thanks to your videos!

So not even Bawk can escape the stuttering which I saw several times. I really wanna enjoy this but stuttering just turns me off :(
For now it's Bawk and KatLink with the quickest runs. Of course others will show up to make things Real Interesting. Let's just hope Spicee chills the heck out!!! 😅
Im in the hospital right now and as I very slowly walked around I was just thinking what a dizzy and dark nightmare it would be to try and do this fast
Just beat the game and came here after to see how this is possible lol
Really angry man screams at locals here's a quote from the man himself "WRAGH RGHHH AGGH WRAGGH mary WRAGH" more at 5.
Sub 2 hours is very possible.
I'd be curious to know how you train for the speedrun, Bawk. For such a confusing game, you have the route already figured out and memorized, and in such a short time. It's very impressive, how do you do it??
The Loop theory feels so real at this point.
Bawk lookin healthy
Holy shit 2 hours?,it took me 1hour to get to the apparments in new game+ even knowing where to go and what to collect,im going for a "get 6 endings in a single run",just multi tasking required items so i can reload saves at the hotel and get all the endings im missing.
The irony is that all they have to do is hire the people like gemini who fixed up all the old re games and it would be an easy remaster.
What tips do you have for someone not glitching at all?
well he really is surviving the horrors
When I play it seems like I run faster when hurt. Or is that just an illusion
I really wish i had the time to figure out speedruns, the last speedrun i did was RE3 Remake and I did it naturally around I think 45 mins without help.
good run
Does this work on ps5?
Yup!
In a speedrun perspective is the remake better than the original SH2 ?

Nice someone who's commentating during their run.
ngl I also used this strat for the Eddie boss fight except I wasn't doing a boss run 😂
27:44 will continue next time
Speedruns with no real gameplay are absolute trash. This is awesome
Letsssss aaaaa go
58:55 nah bruh that's me
Thank you soo muuch

That is super impressive. Nice one👏👏. Can this be easily done on PS5 too? 😂. I want to try it
Yeah everything can be done on PS5. The charge move is a waste of time though unless you're absolutely nailing it every single time
