Explaining The Perfect Elden Ring Speedrun [TAS]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 авг 2023
- Elden Ring is FromSoftware's biggest game, yet, it is possible to finish it in just under 3 minutes. How? This video explains a spectacular tool-assisted speedrun world record performed by the player ViRazY in great detail. It covers everything from the game-breaking Zipping and Force Quit Wrong Warp glitches all the way to the smallest differences between jumping and sprinting speeds.
This tool-assisted speedrun uses perfectly planned sequences of inputs to complete several segments with frame-perfect precision, impossible for humans. It is a showcase of a theoretical perfect gameplay and displays how broken Elden Ring truly can be.
Special shoutouts to everyone who made this speedrun possible. Blade, ModerateChaos and smelty for testing the Zipping Glitch and HYP3RSOMNIAC and seeker for their routing, and of course, ViRazY for allowing me to cover his incredible speedrun.
Many thanks also go to Cadarev and rythin for their valuable feedback during this video's production.

Amazing job showcasing and explaining the TAS! Thank you so much!
Very well done! So satisfying to see Elden Ring "shattered". After all those bosses have done to players, it's nice to seen them manipulated so extremely
I find it hilarious imagining the tarnished running from Hoarah Loux in the last phase of the run, like he’s desperately trying to stop you. Amazing informative video as always!
In the RTA speedruns, at least the old ones, the strat used at that point is letting yourself be caught and pilebombed ( I think that's the name of the move, it's the one where after the grab he jumps vertically with you ) by Hoarah Loux, because the timing is so that the God Felled message appears while you are dying. It doesn't even matter that he tries to stop us, for he is the one to send us to the platform
That is correct! It is much more difficult to time a quitout for a human without it wasting time, so simply letting yourself get "powerbombed" ended up being the consistent strategy that does not even lose that much time (like 1s).
I'm not sure if Hoarah Loux, WARRIOR, would approve of becoming Elden Lord in this manner. There's not much strength displayed at all! ;)
The narration so insightful, the editing so stylish, the sound so crispy. Immaculate job Cata! 💪
This means a ton coming from you, Matt! Thank you so much, friend.
-we are leaving in 3 minutes
-aight lemme beat a fromsoft game real quick
I love all the useful graphs to illustrate the detailed under the hood mechanics. As a mathematician i really appreciate how useful and rich with information they are
I was trying really hard to try and create visuals that could make digesting the information easier. Glad you enjoyed them!
I think the amazing thing about this isn't what the TAS does, it's that humans are only 75 seconds behind. With how precise everything is, that's what's crazy to me.
That is true! Both HYP3RSOMNIAC and seeker put quite a bit of effort into their Any% Unrestricted runs and pushed it all the way to the limit of human ability and fun.
The original Mario I think is only 1 frame behind the TAS
HOLY HELL THE EDITING ON THIS ONE!!!
I don't even think I need to touch on the content's quality, since it has been amazing for many videos now! Awesome video as always.
Great editage as always cata, love the zipping beams showing the trajectory and bounce at Maliketh, very cool shot.
Thank you so much, crow! I spent a lot of time on that scene and it is probably my favorite of the entire video, so it makes me happy the effort paid off!
Yeah that was the best shot by far
Yep same, amazing stuff
I love these explanations. I was thinking the past week, when are we gonna get another explanation video that I could never even try lol
Sick editing. Great info. Good pacing.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the vid.
Such sick editing man. Video was super easy to follow. Cheers!
Thank you very much! That was a huge focus of mine.
Elden Ring TAS takes zips so far that Winrar starts asking for a full version purchase
The most unexpected thing was nightglow cover at the end
Seriously, i would have never expected to hear a honkai music here
Anyways, i knew bits and pieces of what happened already, but it's always nice seeing it explained better than before~
Thanks for this video~
An elden ring TAS video was not where I expected to get nightglow-ed, but here we are
Why must you hurt me this way
Sorry! 😂 I just thought it fit the ending very well.
Really like these kinds of videos which explain all "bs" that usually happens in speedruns.
Great editing and very informative.
1st proper TAS breakdown I've seen, absolutely amazing
Mass Effect music in the background of an incredibly detailed and great explanation vid makes it even better.
Thanks for the in depth look! Speedrunning is really cool to watch, and knowing how why a runner or the TAS does certain things makes it even more enjoyable!
As always you can achieve a great a explanation, as well a meticulous deep work to break down the plot that you want to share with us. Congrats my dude!
Insane storytelling, explanation and the final song with nightglow rock version is a heartbreking moment for me. Thanks for your hard work catalystz!!
By making videos like this for souls and ER or just speedruns in general, you WILL get big. Just like Karl Jobst. You are more like the Hawkshaw or Zullie of Souls speedruns. Keep it up my dude. I get excited for your analysis and explanations.
This is absolutely insane. Your video quality is superb as usual, but the strats explained here and the brains that worked all this out are truly, staggeringly impressive. Bravo!
Awesome explanations! I really enjoyed seeing the clips first before coming back to them.
Your editing and explanation makes it crystal clear, thank you
What an amazing run, and you explain it so well! Fantastic video.
Excellent visuals !! Cinematographic work in this episode was insane
great video man! never thought i'd be hearing Nightglow from HI3 at 21:50 in an elden ring speedrun explained video hahaha
I am glad you exist. Really enjoying your content!
Really really intuitive explanation, I felt like I understood it all perfectly, and got to then fully enjoy the video ❤
Waht an unbelievable explanation of this TAS. wow. blown away. Not by the TAS but the explanation of it, knowing how many insane bugs have been found and exploited to the max.
Woah, i thinked about fastest Elden Ring speedrun and you added video explaining it 3 hours ago. Thats nice, big up ✌🏻😀
Outstanding production value.
Amazing video as always!
Man, your graphics look so good! Entertaining stuff!
Fantastic editing man.
The Himeko cutscene music fading in caught me off guard but great taste!
Im soo glad i wasn't the only one who noticed it
This video's production quality is absolutely magnificent.
Amazing video and great explanation!
very high quality video good job !
Fantastic video!!!
Amazing. Well done on the video
Visuals are amazing and well explained
Thank you very much! It was a big focus point for me.
This video is actually so underrated, it was so detailed and entertaining at the same time
Also on around 14:00 you could mention that since we are gonna travel very long distance in very short period of time, even a slightly misaligned facing could lead to zipping be deflected way further than the point we wanted to go.
My man promised and delivered! Thanks for video!
That explanation of the zip glitch is really well done.
Editing was rly good on this 1
Excelent video, insane level of knowledge.
I'm not sure if it's still doable on the current patch but you could actually abuse the deloading map glitch on the Commander Naill boss fight by jumping off the cliff to the left of the Fort, you needed to be riding Torrent and use his double jump as a normal player jump is too short to get past the kill box. Good to know this is technically feasible in other areas.
Yes, Niall deload still works on current patch, as well as the Mohg deload!
that random "nightglow" though...
High effort high quality video creation. Solid work, liked and commented for engagement
oh my god this editing is amazing
Amazing video Cata! Found it super informative at explaining glitches used
Thank you for enjoying it!
Nightglow jumpscare before elden beast fight
This is sooo interesting and insane
New video 30 sec ago.... hell yeah! Keep up the good job!
who could have thought that the longest fromsoft game would have the shortest any% speedrun... nice one
Awesome job, watching these explanation videos is always a pleasure! I was wondering, is it possible to zip in any Dark Souls game? If not, what is the difference with respect to ER? I'm asking this because as far as understood the glitch is tied to framerate and animations, which are similar (if not equal) to the ones of the other souls games. Probably it would be impossible in DS1 PTD due to 30 fps, but what about the other games?
Yo cata. I just survived a stroke and rehab+ psych ward. Doing good now and i bet you're still killing it you monster speedrunner, hope it's going well! Much love
Bro this is fucking nuts! And the fact that this is only 1 minute faster than the actual human speedrun is really impressive too. Kudos to the wr holder and to you ny guy for this amazing vid
Ayo that Afterglow jumpscare near the end absolutely killed me as a Honkai 3rd player
The editing is amazing. I myself am trying some myself and would love to know which software u use and where u learnt it from(like a yt channel)
leaving the boss fog... is the Fools Idol and First Encounter Seath the only bosses in the Soulsborne series to have this feature?
As far as I am aware, yes.
Holy shit I came to watch a game, I got a math lesson.
Bravo on the work and illustration!!
If he does his own editing then jesus. Idk how he has time for so much speedrunning and editing. Its purely amazing
Yeah I have done all my editing myself. Thank you for the kind words!
Cata speedrunning COPIUM
is the background music the mass effect galaxy map soundtrack????
Man this was crazy
I’m sure it’s obvious, but how on earth do you fight rykard before morgott? I thought you have to do taniths quest which involved going to the mountaintops.
Editing: Tier S
My brain almost melted just from watching this
The TAS of all time!
TAS speedruns are always fascinating
visualization is so fucking good
this guy should consider editing as he's actual career. its smoother than the tas speedrun
Well that was some high quality video mate, thanks.
Imagine this speedrun from the POV of the bosses. Godrick in his garden sees the tarnished fly across the sky. Then Maliketh sees him in his roof and the disappear and he starts falling because his arena vanished. Horah Loux just goes into 2nd phase even without knowing anything (the tree wasn't burned, Morgott didn't die, the tarnished didn't enter his arena) and the without touching him the elden beast dies and without any skill and violence a new Elden Lord rules over the lands between
I heard that Dave the Diver riff :)
Based on the video length I thought this was going to be a no zips any% TAS.
I wonder if the explanation of such a TAS would end up around the same length since zips wouldn't need to be explained.
i wanna see an any% restricted tas
Mega zip is the most forbidden technique
Stanning the original EVE soundtrack.
I'm gathering my family and friends to watch this highlight with
Does this zip glitch exists in other fromsoft games? Or even other games in general?
There are definitely games where similar zip glitches exist. It is also possible a smaller version of it exists in DS3 but nothing as substantial as in Elden Ring
"Local Madman Breaks Reality, Gets Powerbombed So Hard It Kills The Elden Beast Somewhere Completely Different"
2m42s on thumbnail, 24m for vid length. Analysis time!
2 minutes explained in 20 is a decent ratio imo! 😂
Armor used by player at beginning?
Wait you can leave the Fool’s idol boss room?
i am less amazed with the run than how you turned a 2:42 minute run into a 24 minute video.
🤯
What's the song at 22:00?
Its a remix of Himekos death theme from Honaki Impact 3rd
YOU CAN LEAVE THE FOOL'S IDOL ARENA???
So, who wants so afk info Jita 44 now? Great music
Glitchen lord
I can't wait for the shit that'll be discovered once the DLC drops
Just a heads up, the sped-up footage part has a few harsh flashes from dark to light, idk if its from edit cuts or just how the footage came out at that speed, but may be worth making the footage a smaller part of the screen or so when doing that in the future to avoid the eye pain.
Rise, Tarni...
This is the sort of stuff that no human will EVER be able to pull off but its so interesting to see in action.
Speedrunning is not just about what humans can do, but also about what is theoretically possible with no limitations! That's what makes these TAS speedruns so interesting.
bro why do I feel like you have a completely different channel that I'm already subbed too? I'm so God damn confused because I swear I've heard your voice, just not on this Channel
edit* I figured it out! you and press continue just sounded similar to me and have a similar video format
holy shit dude - WTF
wtf? holy_shit™
nice
