As mentioned in the description, given I am using my own stricter ruleset for "Glitchless", I am not labelling this as a "WR", because really I would just be competing with myself, and I think that would be rather self indulgent. This is however, the best run (it's currently faster than the runs that use the more lax ruleset too)
Your absolute DOMINANCE over the special stages blows me away. I used to pride myself on being able to 1-shot them all (the intented way) but now.. jeez man. This was my favorite game since childhood. I couldn't look away, man. Such a cool run.
Watching this speedrun brought me back to when I was little watching my big bro doing 100% playthroughs of S3&K. Congrats on smashing the world record and thank you for posting this
Werster, you hit a grand slam running S3&K once again! Great run! I especially liked at 25:10 the way you bounced between the two bots with Knuckles' glide!
Excellence in gaming. Glitchless runs are always the most impressive, and this was the best. Have you ever tried a blind(folded) Spheres run? Would love to see it!
I have a confession. I've never played Sonic 3 with Knuckles all the way through. Is this really the way the game plays out or how it was really meant to be? Because it's a lot of levels
if you only knew how much hours me and my bro put into Sonic and Knuckles, and we still don't play like you did. Now, we were super pros because we knew all the secrets. We even found a way to get infinite lives at Launch base. We broke the game so bad; we made knuckles blue, lol. Great video.
Love seeing Knuckles' full movement set used to its utmost efficiency, instead of just one glitch after another lol. Not that glitched runs aren't valid or entertaining in their own right! I just like seeing games played as "intended" sometimes.
The first TAS I ever watched was this exact run (except glitched), this feels nostalgic in a way with how clean the gameplay is, high level S3K is just so peak.
Full on illness. COVID2025. Under the weather. Vomit. Bedridden. Anything other than the asinine, dimwitted, out of context, lower species use of the word "sick" Amazing run dude. Destroyed the game.

The routing is just incredible. The time it must take to work that out then actually get consistent is crazy
As a kid I could do the sne&k special stages on an old black an white TV, I'm kinda proud of this, but definitely not as good as he is here
I always love seeing people keep old games like this alive. Keep at it! Making me want to finally start my sonic 2 glitchless attempts ;)

I loved this game as a kid. Beat it with knuckles so many times. You made it look easy.
The routing on the blue sphere stages is fucking insane.
When he was moonwalking on that shiiii 🔥🔥🔥
I'm only up to Hydrocity Act 2 and had to scroll down to comments to say this, too. Holy shit.
i always love watching your sonic speedruns! this will be a treat
its insane how good you are at these games, this is so sick
Its really nice to see a non super glitched speed run of this game. Great job!
Seeing you do this reminds me that I actually kind of suck at video games. Thanks for making me feel inadequate!

Sick category. Sick run.
Glitches killed the sonic speedruns imo
Glad to see you back at your best
Glitch-less sonic 2 now please

Yeah, and knuckles is actually the shortest campaign of the 3 (and a half) available. Sonic and tails have a longer late-game with additional levels.

41:30 That's some Looney Tunes shenanigans right there.
Sonic 3 with S&K is still in my top 5 games of all time. Great job.
Definently still a world record in the standard glitchless in my books. Nice job
Hell yeah I was hoping this would come eventually
This is so satisfying to watch for someone who cant nail any of those trickier jumps
Good to watch my favorite game being so weel treated.

Fantastic run.

werster moonwalking through the emeralds
Werster still killing it.
Good speedrun 😊
Magnificent!
So sick
Anyone else notice how on FB2 the boss is Robotnik and not the bot that's the boss in all the others? Thought that was interesting
yesssssss
These blue sphere special stages almost broke me my first time playing. Special stage six, especially.🤕
'E's fackin dan it.
Bloody oath.
oh my god
9:23 bro this shit is insane
I think back in 96 or so I got as far as the final boss but couldn't beat em. Playing as knuckles was hard.
werster still goated
fast
9:49 vc me destruiu kkkk
They should have to put that it's a tool assisted speed run in the title so it's not misleading
41:58 Do nothing. Win.
Bro calm down on those special stages. I have at best beaten 2 of them.
Full on illness. COVID2025. Under the weather. Vomit. Bedridden.

Amazing run dude. Destroyed the game.
