- After all the pain, here's my successful run-through of Ori and the Blind Forest: Definitive Edition on One Life difficulty. For all the fails leading up to this point, see the following:
• Reaching 100k Gamersco...
I just finished the game myself for the first time, with just over 1000 deaths on normal. Witnessing someone get though all this in 2 hours without dying is one magnificent sight.
Thank you for this so much.
Hah! I only died 560 times. This game is wonderful but so unforgiving.
Haha, we were all there once. I believe I had around 700 deaths on my first run. Trial and error!
First run completed this weekend, around 980 death, this game is so difficult, I wanna try the one life run too.
I died over 1000 time on normal too, I cannot imagine playing on 1 life :)
Yea, I quit for a while and the came back, this game is harder than hollow knight but I still think hollow knight is better
@@Summer_turtle_ Well I don't think it's harder on a normal run but One life YES it's infintivly harder I'm trying it but it's sooo hard it's absurd. Like in Holloknight it took some run but I did manage to do the speedruns achievement and steel soul. I think I'll take years of practice to do Ori
@@gn6311 hard mode isn’t really difficult it just take longer to beat the game with more hp to ennemies I think and the Xp takes a lot of time to build on and it's harder to finish the skill tree.
But one life like I said is an all different breed and a lot more difficult then hollownight one life mode steelsoul.
Because while you die sometimes in Hollowknight it's not a lot where in Ori game loop even in easy you die in repeat a lot LOT. So doing it in 1 life leave no room for mistake at all
Your commentary is so refreshing compared to other youtubers. You say exactly what you need to say, nothing more and nothing less.
Good work dude!
He said he was not going to talk much, later on. But I'm glad he meant he was not going to be talking about irrelevant topics. Cause he did keet talking about the game and that was awesome!
I learned a lot and there was no dull moment in the entire video 👍
Thanks man! I honestly think my mind was so numb by the start of this attempt that I could not have managed two hours of filler commentary, so let the game speak for itself for the most part. Really appreciate it 👍🏻
@@OzkanArac Really cool feedback. Am grateful, thank you!
I just wanted to say thank you so much for this video. I've been playing Ori and the Blind Forest Definitive edition for a while and recently started trying One Life mode. After many attempts, I finally got it, and now I have all of the achievements for it. My run was always around 3 hours, but I add quite a few extra ability points, energy and life orbs. I'm amazed at how long you kept going without spending ability points, and how you never paused quit before dying, you did it all in one continuous run.
The only way I got Mount Horu and the end sequence finally was having a Normal mode save file in the same spots, and practicing each segment multiple times before continuing further on my One Life game in those sections. I can't imagine how many times you practiced this game to get as good as you are through the entire game. You're awesome!
Thank you for your comment David, and huge congratulations on getting it! It was incredibly incredibly tempting to pause the game when I knew I was going to die, but ultimately the desire was there to beat it without any cheeky workarounds. Mount Horu was a nightmare - I had at least five attempts end in there, and like you, I reverted to practicing in a saved file there. Congrats and thanks again!
That’s absolutely insane dude! This def needs more views. Awesome job!
Thanks!!
I will use your playthrough to try my One Life run, wish me luck. I've got all the other achievements not related with speedruns and NoDeath, i wonder if i complete this run, all of them will be unlocked for once.
Edit: i did it, it took a few attempts, that dammed Ginso Tree
That video deserves more than a million views. It's so bloody impressive. I replayed Ori recently after a long break and finished with 370 deaths. More than half of them in Horu Mountain. Amount of skill and perseverance required for such feat is incredible.
Wow really impressive, I have to see to believe it hahaha I can't do that, congratulations. The only thing that was annoying for me was that you didn't use the Spirit magnet skill, and all the point that got lost hahaha. Anyways it was great to watch. Did you use a controller right?
He played on Xbox, of course he used controller. I used DS4 when I played on PC. Platformers must be played with controllers always. :)
Thanks to you man I finally have the last 2 achievements and Ori and the Blind Forest 100% completed! Took me more attempt than I like to admit. Wish you all the best.
Congratulations! It was a long journey for us all 😂
Holy shit man, I celebrated right along with you! That was such an awesome run! Man, you got a new sub, and congratulations on doing that, no small feat!
Good job dude. I’m surprised you didn’t take a single break through all of this. How many times did you beat the game before attempting a One Life run?
Haha, I took plenty of sulking breaks in-between the runs that I died! I probably beat the game upwards of 10 times, but then had an additional 30 attempts trying to nail One Life!
27th approach, eh? Great work. Huge congrats. I just finished the game on Hard with around 500 deaths and I was wondering if I can handle this achievement. I don't know if I'm patient enough :D
Greatest Respect from you Sir! It was a thrill to watch! Warming up for this achievement at the moment! Cheers from Switzerland - to London? Love the accent.
Finished it in normal with over 600 deaths
Now playing it on Hard
Scariest parts for One Life is escaping Ginso Tree and the ending run
I think mount Horu is hardest because of all the insta death. I even died once in the final escape. Lol.
@@OzkanArac definitely Horu is tougher. For the sheer amount of rooms and possible insta deaths and even a sort of mini escape. Ginso is not that hard when you get accustomed to it.
Also, for me personally, the Forlorn Ruins is the worst, those jumps from those cubes with those weird physics....Ugh.
Killing that one laserthing at 1:43:00 at the end with stomps almost got you killed, but you could have just avoided it xD, i don't think trying this on PC with mouse/keyboard is worth a try, the controls feel to cluncky, i died way more than necessary just because of how bad it is to play with WASD.
First time I played this it took me about 16 hours. I just enjoyed exploring, and I wanted to get 100% and was backtracking a lot. Died little over 500 times if I remember right.
Im to clumsy I cant even make it to the the point where you get the key to the water dungeon
I bought the game last week and just finished it on hard difficulty in about 11-12h and about 500 deaths, I was thinking about trying One Life Difficulty and seeing that ennemies drop life cells (which they don't on hard difficulty) and also seeing they deal much less damage... I will give it a go :)
I don't think I will try this myself anytime soon but I am glad I got to witness you do this epic achievement!
Using this video I was able to complete it on Hard difficulty in 3 hours and 11 minutes with "only" 90 deaths :D
Your video was such a valuable resource on my journey to completing this. Thank you for all the effort you put into explaining the game as you played.
Unfortunately the achievement didn't pop for me because of a bug that occurs when you restart the run on a one-life save file where you already died. The save file and the pause menu will say "one-life" but the game will not register it. Apparently I had to start on a brand new separate save file to get the achievement. Imagine going through all that trouble and not getting the achievement in the end :(.
Ah, well... thank god for steam achievement manager.
Just finished this game for the first time today. It took around around 11 hours and 700 deaths (I was at 683 before the final escape). I just have to say that this video is wonderful and a great achievement by you.
I hadn’t played any metroidvanias or platformers besides Mario for a long time (Metroid fusion on the game boy) and decided to buy Metroid dread when I got my OLED switch a few days ago. Now my eyes have been opened up to a totally new genre. Both games (ori and dread) are masterpieces and are 100% some of the best games I’ve played the past few years.
Hopefully in some time I can get somewhere close to how good you are at this game and maybe even repeat your wonderful feat :)
I was wondering that, if the platform freaked out bc what would be the point of a splice bc ultimately you would still have to complete it one life. Only reason i could think spliced would be if some areas were cleaner and more optimized than others. Regardless, a great accomplishment! One of my fav games!
For me - the element of water was the worst part in the game. I mean I died here for 200 times :D. Even when I played it for the second time I died for 180 times again. I don't know why but.... I don't think I'll be able to do it in one life. Never. For my first run, I had 580 deaths and for my second I was even worst (and I thought that it was easier for me) I had 630 deaths. On top of that - I always play on easy level I'm not capable to play on normal :D
How hasn't this got more views man, nice! I die shit ton of times and this run has helped a lot props brother
I thank you so much! I played one life with you and you taught me so many skips and things I never knew you could do in the game. It was amazing and after 47 failed attempts, I can finally say on my 48th attempt. I have finished one life difficulty.
Is this video in particular is what guided you through this? I really wanna earn this achievement, like badly. I have time right now too…
@@hugono3938 Yes, I will say patience is the number 1 thing for one life mode
@@sirspanks69 Yeah, I do have that, and the guts to not give up, too. Also thanks for the reply! Gives me confidence, and have a great day.
@@hugono3938 GOOD LUCK AND BELIEVE IN YOURSELF!
@@sirspanks69 Thanks!
I just did the deathless run! Thanks for guiding me through it man :)
Mad, mad props. I just finished this game on normal and I can’t imagine doing this with only one life. Was a lot of fun watching you make this run. I’ve also beaten WotW and these two games have become my new favorite games. They’re beautifully done and the game mechanics are on point.
been trying this for a few weeks all i can say is that the insta kill beams in forlorn ruins are probably the worst part of this game, ggs to you
I JUST beat One Life yesterday and holy FUCK it was so difficult. Especially Kuro's escape sequence at the end
Edit: It's also interesting, you have some of the exact same strats I did
Clap, clap! Impressive gaming. I learned some tricks. Thanks!
There is a shorter way at 56:00. You can dash on the frog to go up and you can skip a little sequence
Wait this is a difficulty... I started playing the game for a few hours and whenever I died I had to restart
Yeah, best is to start on easier difficulties before trying that one.
damn. I've died so many times in easy mode lol. good job, mate
lol am i the only one that wants to see another attempt? 😅
This video is awesome. I kept coming back to it. You’re an awesome guy!
almost did it, died at the 1:46:42 mark😢
i just beat one life mode, and it's so insanely difficult compared to everything else in this game. and i'm very experienced in such types of games, i have other 400 hours in hollow knight and beat the last pantheon with all bindings
Good to see another person who is a fan of both games. Most hk stans are really dismissive of this game, and my response is always "beat one life mode, and come back and say that".
Unhinged for sure
What's with the splice at 17:29 where the screen splits and audio track starts over?
I've not noticed that before and agree it looks suspect, but I can assure you it's not spliced. If you look closely at x0.25 speed, those dodgy frames only seem to affect the bottom half of the screen (keep an eye on all of the top-half scenery, the wooden platform, the spirit well, Ori and Sein, all whilst mid-jump). The top half is fluent and never breaks, and I wonder if the Xbox couldn't keep up with loading the scenery and had a tantrum.
For what it's worth, a splice would be much easier to execute 5 seconds earlier at the spirit well or 5 seconds later when Gumo drops down, as opposed to midjump!
This video is such a gift to anyone attempting to platinum Ori 1. It helped me to finally get the deathless run myself. On top of that, your commentary was spot-on.
Just spend 9h to get 100% and think "my steam achievment should be 80% completed" and when i checked... its not even 60%. One thing got me hopeless try to get all the achievment was this "one life" difficulty. Even on medium i died 500+ what about this one.
Great Run Tho🙌
*sorry for bad english
Just got through my second playthrough of the Blind Forest (after beating both games once last year) and I thought my performance was horrible, but I got around 200 deaths, and many of those were on purpose because I didn't want to cheese through an area and wanted to improve and do a clean run through whatever part I was playing.
Encouraging to see you going from 600+ deaths to zero, impressive skills man, love to see it.
Also, thank you for giving praise to bash, it's probably my favorite game mechanic off all time, it makes the game so much fun.
This is rad, I died at least 1,000 times! At 1:46:37, you can actually go underneath the obstacles, following the direction of the rotation of those lava beams. There's definitely a section of instant-death exposed lava in the middle that you can't really see, but there is room to stand once you drop down from the platform on the left, and a jump with a speed burst can get you safely to the other side. Maybe a little easier than trying to go back over the top.
Also, looks like I brought you to 1K subscribers.
Congrats on hitting that milestone!!!
Thanks man - really appreciate it! I have every confidence you could replicate this run!
@@SpamShock what kind of pace should i have before attempting this?
Just finished the game for the 4th time on Hard mode... 100+ deaths, as always. I'm just in awe watching you
congratulation! i am challenge this recently. Hope I will make it.
I also put my video on youtube.
I never really figured out how to dodge the purple spiky projectiles very effectively :(
I died 500 tomes and i not imagine doing this, for me it will imposible, but i will gonna try to be best in this game and do this
Thank you so much for this video! I finally got mine after much perserverence!
You are my hero. I've done the game dying more than 500 times in hard mode. Amazing, congrats for the achievement
It was one of my favourite games and just finished beating it on normal mode
Are ya planning on playing WOTW, the ori sequel?
Hi buddy! Yup, doing my first casual playthrough at the moment, and then might look at a few video options. Have you played it?
@@SpamShock Yeah ive played it already, it also has a achievement for not dying.
special moments for every time i open this video again 1:01:31 / 1:09:20
Is spaming a jump button in water faster than holding?
My best attempt of ori had exactly 100 deaths idk how you do it
it must have been super stressful for you to play, but it's super relaxing to watch.
Thank you ! I have 100% thanks to you ! gg for the run !! hfhf
very nice comments and playing
my favorite ori playthrough
Mad props to you! The commentary was flawless, it was just the right amount of information for someone who didn't know the game, and really well explained. I just finished the game with all achievements except run-related ones like One Life or Speedrun, because with my 570 deaths on normal difficulty I thought I had enough, but watching you achieve this, I might at least give some of these missing achievements a try (not this one though lol). I don't watch a lot of full-game playthroughs like this, but I was really invested in yours! Again, congratulations for that very well earned achievement!
You can kinda cheese Immortal a bit by copying saves in the menu (which also tends to give you Supersonic), and if you have the game on PC, you can cheese One Life / Unhinged the same way by copying saves in your filesystem. This is absolutely cheating and doesn't deserve respect as an accomplishment, just thought I'd mention it in case you like the dopamine of seeing achievements pop up (more than you like spending hours on attempts) and are willing to use trickery to get there.
45:26 Beginning wind valley
Well that was awesome :O
I'm done
I'm surprised you never once went for Spirit Magnet, seemed like you were endangering yourself trying to grab spirit light in a couple of spots. I always get it just to eliminate the impulse to jump to my death in order to gain 3 xp lol
Also, I think an important point about the story is that it wasn't Ori's revival that killed Kuro's chicks, because that could be read as "the deaths were necessary to save the forest." No, the resurrection was a relatively peaceful affair involving a lot of flowers springing up all of a sudden. That burst was the "Light Festival" (so titled by Sein), which the Spirit Tree put on in a time of peace and prosperity in an effort to get Ori to leave Naru and come back to their ""home"" with the other forest children. So it could actually be read as a selfish act, of the forces of light thinking they're above everyone else and going to great lengths to get back what's "theirs," and such an act disrupted the yin/yang of the forest, causing Kuro's retaliatory vendetta and the eventual state of full decay and "blindness" that killed Naru and Ori some time later. (This state could only be reverted through the circumstance of the volcanic eruption and forest fire, which put everyone in danger and forced them to act together to save themselves and each other, and the cumulative result of previous acts of selfless and sacrificial devotion to others, on the part of Ori, Gumo, and Naru.)
Lack of spirit magnet was the thing that got me a bit perplexed as well, haha. It really helps early on with getting ahead on gathering spirit. Gonna chock that up to differences in goals, though. For one life 100%, I tend to take the hit on early utility stuff and just speed level the middle tree to get spirit efficiency asap. Then, I put everything into top tree to get airdash and breath ready for the trip down to Lost Grove, which I do immediately after getting feather. Makes for a less stressful Misty > Ruins > Pass section.
@@radikaldesignz Yeah it seems to me like if you're doing 100% ability tree in general you just want to get efficiency asap (though then again, if you plan on getting every ability cell and spirit light container you probably won't need to worry too much about collecting enough spirit light)
@Nat_the_Chicken how do I put this...
When playing one life mode, you end up playing more of the beginning parts of the game than the later parts. You get used to not having things like the damage upgrades and the save healing much easier. Most of what's going to kill you is just instant death stuff anyway. No upgrades can really help you with that, except for mobility upgrades. And getting spirit efficiency asap let's you get all your mobility upgrades faster than either evenly upgrading everything or ignoring the middle tree altogether.
Granted, doing the first 2 of each and then focusing on movement upgrades only yields roughly the same result, but then it takes forever before you get your attack buffs maxed. And it's true that getting efficiency first won't make the game noticeably faster to complete, but it will make the later parts of the game much safer and easier to navigate, much sooner in the run than otherwise. I'd rather be ahead on upgrades going into the completion sweep portion, despite the fact that the completion sweep will get you there regardless.
Edit - to add to this, your routing is a bigger factor for safety during the run. Heres what works for me:
Warp up to ginso after grotto, then after ginso (aka getting bash and stomp), you warp to hollow Grove well from grotto well and go left to grab feather. Immediately warp to sunken and do burrows, and straight to lost Grove (skipping the boulder). When you warp out at the bottom, you continue with misty > ruins > pass by warping to the well next to misty. For pass, you just want the ancestral tree for now, so you warp out at the well. Then completion sweep the whole map aside from the path to horu, and warp back and finish the pass. Come down and finish up that area, and use the well near misty to get to the well near ginso, and onward to horu to finish the game.
@@radikaldesignz Oh if you're trying to give me tips for when I do it myself, don't bother. I decided I wanted the achievement but didn't want to actually sink in the amount of time and repetitive play required to get it legit, so I cheated by manually duplicating my save file on my computer every time I saved. In no way did I earn the accomplishment and I doubt I ever will, but I think it's kinda fun to mess with game files.
Edit: Thanks for all the info on this though, it is pretty interesting to see how you think about it and how you developed your route.
Word of advice: If you are falling to your death or are going to die, pause the game and leave to restart from your last checkpoint. Saved me from falling onto an instant kill spike in the water escape
Wait, that's viable even for One Life difficulty?
A lot of times, you'll die before you even realize you're about to get insta-death'd. But, yeah, you can absolutely pause and quit if you get to that pause button fast enough, and it'll load from your last save.
You're good man! What about new game?
I've just completed my first casual playthrough. This game looks feckin brutal, so One Life would be tricky!
I also tried to play with one life, but died on Horu Mount 😅
How’d you feel when you did? Just curious
well, it was very disappointing 🥲 By the way, I never got there anymore.
@@UsrRshTov Dang..
I accidentally pressed dislike sorry XD
Good video
This is just what I need to make 100% of achievements, and playing in definitive edition PC, is not possible to copy and paste the save.... so if somebody had some tips, please, give me!
No version of the game, even on Xbox, allows you to make copies of One Life files!
@@SpamShock sorry for my poor english, but, could you confirm, is this possible or not? I was training in easy before try the onelife mode, than, everytime when i make a save, i go to menu and do a copy and paste, but in onelife i cannot do it!
