Hey, thank you for having me!
It was a pleasure to showcase the run I've been pouring my all into for the last year or so. For full transparency though, I want to talk about the audio setup. The headphones used during the marathon were noise cancelling, but didn't block all audio. We did tests beforehand where they seemed fine to me. I'm not sure what changed during the actual marathon but I could faintly hear the commentators during quiet sections of the game. This isn't ideal of course, and invalidates the run from going on the leaderboards.
I don't think it gave me a significant advantage though. On the contrary it messed me up. This run is fully memorized to the point where I have to count each footstep/audio cue. So having people talk in my head while I'm trying to count is honestly frustrating. There was more than one occurrence in the run where I miss-counted due to this. Anyways, I hope this doesn't tarnish the run too much and that you can still enjoy the showcase for what it is.
Hopefully I'll get a chance to redeem myself some other time
All good man. That was still an insane showcase of hard work in routing and input memorization you put into the run
I know it totally defeats the purpose of a blindfolded run, but it's so nerve-wracking watching it that there were times i was actually hoping you could hear people cheering so you knew you got something right. It's crazy to me that any of this is possible and it was awesome to watch.
I had been wondering how much you could hear, as at the start of the night's cavalry one of the commentators asked the crowd not to applaud as it would give you information.
I greatly respect that you are open about the fact that you could hear some commentary at certain times.
The run is extremely impressive, and your honesty is admirable.
It was still a super cool and impressive run! Thanks
they shouldn't have sat right behind you lol
Imagine his face, after taking off the blindfold and still being at the starting area, after 2 hours of button pressing 😂
That shit would be so funny 😂
Haha XD! That would be hilarious! I would watch his whole "playthrough" that way laughing like an idiot XD!
Takes the blindfold off. Everyone has gone home 😂 lights are off and
No way with all the sound tracking
he blindfolded not deafen
Pennek: Finishes this game in 2h while blindfolded
Me: Arrives at limbrave
Whats limbrave?
limbrave 🤤
Bro you discovered a new area that's never been seen before, and in just two hours. Don't put yourself down like that.
Good times man 😂
Grave 💀😔
Brave 👊🏻🙆🏻♂️
i don't think i could make it off the character creation screen blindfolded
that is madness
i mean neither did he lol
I wouldn't find the random button to start the game.
I still cannot believe this is possible, mankind does crazy things consistently beyond my wildest imagination
The amount of fucking practice and effort this must have taken is absolutely phenomenal. Blood, sweat, and tears went into being able to pull this off. Unreal.
Phenomenal? Bro this is sad lmao
@@TheStarvingEntrepreneurit’s objectively phenomenal. You’re pissed because your parents yell at you for playing video games all day and you still can’t do this.
@@airanator1212 sure, if that little story you just came up with helps you cope!
@@TheStarvingEntrepreneurit’s called a hobby. You should try one sometime instead of being miserable.
@@KLK01 oooo, I got the Internet mad
This is the most impressive run I've ever watched, of any game. Well done!
There's a monitor at his feet.
@@alansmith4655Have you watched the run?
Nah, the most impressive is Mario 64 120 star blindfolded speed run by Niftski. Absolutely insane
@@Vazik05nah shy did sekiro no hit blindfolded. That had me in shock
If you liked that run there was a guy in the early 2000s who played the old Abe games(jump n run) perfectly scripted out in his head as he was actually legally and fully blind so he was relying on every single audio q the game gave him check it out it might still be out there somewhere
man i dont usually watch stuff like this, but these commentators mixed with the skill of the guy playing.. just wow what an experience. That was awesome
Pennek: Finishes the game blindfolded in 2 hours
Me: Finishes creating character
This is insane, well done Pennek! And thanks to the commentary team for explaining everything along the way, great to follow along as someone who’s only just finished Elden Ring for the first time hahaha
Now do it again but all the endings
This is honestly the most incredible thing I've ever seen. It's mind blowing.
This is one of the most incredible gaming achievements ever dude. Your memory skills are actually insane.
I got my mom to play Elden Ring, told her about different kinds of challenge runs and said pretty much everything has been done except for playing blindfolded. Gonna send this to her
Your mom is so cool, is she single?
@@xavielgarambro
@@xavielgaram weirdo
@@franzrusselldestorIt was a fair question
@@Grassilac what if she is? what diffrence does it makes
Thanks for giving me material to flame friends that haven't completed elden ring yet
Of course Hyetta cosplayer played Elden Ring better than me
Took me exactly 30 seconds. Well done.
he’s really owning it too
its fake
@@alexsuarez978 how do u know since you've said it twice
I remember the times when we thought beating Guitar Hero blindfolded was impressive. How sweet and innocent we were...
😂😂
This was the hardest game I’ve played and it turned out to be my favorite game of all time. Excellent work on this, it’s amazing. I’ve played this game a long time and I wouldn’t be able to go into the areas you did with the low health you had even being able to see the screen. Outstanding.
Same for me, never played a souls game beforehand and have never really been a solo player game player. Last solo game I played was assassins creed black flag when it came out 11 years ago 😂
You did an amazing job Pennek! Really proud that I could help out a bit with the commentary!
Np
Now I have seen everything...When I first saw Aggys blindfolded sekiro run I was blown away, but in an open world game?? That is absolutely insane!!! What a legend!
Love that first fight against the bloody finger, was so impressive
Extraordinary. Amazing run and commentary. One of the best.
I like that at the end he admits he could hear them a little, but regardless what an incredible run.
He can definitely shave this down to an hour. Fantastic work
Absurd
Big fan of the korean starcraft tech of removing the caps of any keys that could cause issues.
Absolutely crazy run, I can't even imagine how much hours of practice this took to get it right. Impressive!
This guy can literally beat it with his eyes closed....
I'm over here rage quiting because I can't beat the fire giant
The trick is he oneshots bosses with his dmg, go upgrade your weapons
@lorenzl8913 nah I quit playing. I suck, and the story is whack haha
@@TarZakdon’t give up brother, your almost there ❤ flamedrake talisman helps a lot with this fight, but you do you
But have you tried beating fire giant blindfolded? Maybe it’s easier?
@@TarZakYou realize the story and lore was written by George R.R Martin right? Elden ring might be the most lore filled game ever made.
This is so mindblowing. There should be olympics for things like that.
Unbelievable somebody is capable of doing this. I’d never have thought it possible. Good work !
absolutely insane! really cool run, can't imagine all the work that goes into it
It’s actually more impressive when you see him die and take the exact same path again the second time
This run is amazing. But we needed a keyboard cam of some sort
Extremely impressive achievement Pennek!! I look forward to having you redo this and hopefully next time the setup will be better and the run will go smoother
i just watched the whole run and still can’t comprehend it! truly an insane achievement
at least he saves money on graphics cards
I simply cannot believe it. This is insane
The fact that you can even kill an npc like Nerius is insane enough.
Unbelievable! I’ve always seen these blindfolded Elden ring runs or sekiro runs and never believed it but this is legit and absolutely incredible 😮
I just finished RL1 and i thought that was hard... Imagine doing this. Absolutely phenomenal. Also, amazing commentary. Very insightful and fun to listen to
Dude has ascended to some level most of us don't know even exist
Insane Run, good job Pennek truly an elden lord!
What kind of sorcery is this!?
I am in awe
Just wow! Incredible run.
Most impressive run i have seen! Learnt more game mechanics from it than 300 hours playing
It's one thing to do a blindfolded boss fight, it's something out of this world to complete an entire game blindfolded. Astonishing!
I never played any soul games before up until a week ago I started elden ring, game doesn't seem too hard but it has some difficulty but easy to learn mechanics. However watching this video highlights even more how easy something can be by using strategy
Absolutely crazy, mad man, I love it!
Still i can't believe it is real.
Outstanding
10/10
Legends tell of a Blind Gamer who was truly gifted in the Keyboard Arts. Using these skills he defeated & banished the Outer God Miyazaki.
Incredible. And also gg for the alzheimer donation as event supporting it.
The sweet summer child I am thought I've seen it all but then there is that guy playing blindfolded. JFC
This is insane! I didn't even thought that would be possible, specially with a huge game like Elden Ring.
He plays better than me even blindfolded 😂 i would never try a run like this. Not being able to see for this much time would cause me a lot of ansiety haha
And i thought i was good by beating Malenia solo and melee only in like my 200th attempt lol
You are still good, many people use a bit of external help for her so props to you for doing it the more difficult way
@@nirolf12 thanks. You're right. I did it the hard way because i wanted the challenge. I didn't even used ashes or bell. Took me more than 200 tries but i did it 100% solo. Her second phase is hellish!
Absolutely great!💙
Im proud of My sub 1 minute blindfolded run in soul caliber 2, and sub 7 minute blindfolded run in WrestleMania 19 world title.
Amazing run
Remembering an absurd amount of inputs most people wouldn’t be able to remember, for an Alzheimer’s charity.
Poetic.
Bro just went asleep and let Saint Trina take over.
What an insane run! Amazing job pennek and commentators!
Having to remember that many sequences and not having the visual confirmation would make me legitimately go insane I think..
These people are crazy. The Super Mario 64 blindfold runs are insane
Incredible. The amount of dedication to learn this game.
you did amazing, lovely to see
At the beginning of 2024 this is the most amazing speedrun someone ever did, lets see how many years to beat this
This is absoloutely insane, like seriously, what am i even seeing.
This is such an insanely complex thing to be this practiced in, i cant imagine how many hours of memorizing and routing and ultimately failing over and over at this seemingly ridiculous idea. Unbelievable.
Run starts at 1:31
Great job on this run guys
Jeez, that was nuts
Absolutely incredible!!!!
Humans are fucking epic this is wild man 😂
That was awesome
Absolute amazing!
That was amazingly impressive! Well done, Pennek. (The commentators were great, too.)
Can anyone tell me why in every "Blindfolded" I've ever seen, the player still has a monitor in front of them. It would be a lot more convincing if only the audience could see the monitor.
Wait, hold on. No, no, no. You can't do that. People are not yet ready to know that they live in the Matrix.
Insane, well done mate
I didn't know Elden Ring had guns till I watched this speedrun xD
Zypers Danglish is 👌
Amazing run 🎉🎉
No run will ever top this. This is insane
I'm amazed on how this was completed with a blindfold
bro was slumped the entire speedrun
incredible work, my only question is, if checking the blindfold is required. why did he need to face the screen? is that purely for this video?
as someone who can only play the same game three times, my brain can’t trust in blind speedrun being a real thing. I’m waiting the day someone will say “this is a prank bro”
You couldn't perform brain surgery either, but incredible dedicated people do it every day.
@@chr1srugbydamn
@@chr1srugby yeah, but we need brain surgery, i dont get the point to train for blind speedrun, that’s why my mind get so confuse
@@tartaruganinjaswe don’t need brain surgery. We choose to play God so both of these things are pointless
@@gucciboy4555 what? i will accept this as a bad joke because no one can be so ignorant kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
imagine falling asleep like this
Fantastic run and fantastic commentary
This was so awesome
I couldnt even do the gesture at the end while being blindfolded
Amazing. Great, great job indeed.
without the backseat gamers it wouldn't be possible 🤫
I've done that blindfolded run too. Took me a bit over two hours. Got stuck in the character editor though...
Mate that's mental. legendary work 👍👍 lol
Really impressive !!
45:45 ~ 46:20 can't imagine how much he practiced for that
59:22 cheers to the commentators. love supportive moments like this.
Bro is the lord of the frenzied flame
I ised to be really good at Mario 64. When i saw blindfolded Mario 64 i tried it... not even 1 star 😂. These people are amazing and creazy at the same time
Absolutely incredible, holy moly.
Now do elden ring & SOTE ng +1000 hitless glitchless 100% RL 1 no grace no teleport no equipment no buffs fist only
This is crazy!
My gf playin Souls game same but with eyes wide open..
I liked this video, but i had a bit of a blind run while watching it. we fell asleep. lol been up since 4am/
When you bring a gun to sword fight
Why would you close your eyes on this beautiful game
