    A big thing I want to mention about Ghostrunner that makes it so perfect
    No fucking loading screens mid-level
    Every time you die. Press a button. Restart at the checkpoint. No loading, no bullshit, you just GO. It’s SO goddamn smooth and I wish more games were capable of this kind of flow

      Exactly. There's 0 downtime, the punishment is the lost of at most a minute or two on some of the more complex combat encounters.
      This is why fromsoft games didn't (and to some extent still don't) appeal to me, because dying not just loses you resources but also often a lot of time to backtrack just to die again and again.

I didn't know they existed until then, and I literally did not look at a single level the same again. I've further optimized like a full second out of that level (it's like a 7 second level) and it remains as the coolest moment from the game, realizing the level I just spent 30 minutes optimizing was the starting point of the journey.

    I'm glad you showed a quick snippet of Katana Zero, but I think it's understated how good that game is at this. It doesn't achieve it by placing you against other players with times (there is a time trial mode that does), but because it shows you a replay at full speed + without showing your time slow, it makes you feel like a literal god and dammit if I don't want to see my little replay beat the level as fast as humanly possible

    • @MasafiVK
      @MasafiVK 6 месяцев назад +22

      That's the neat part: often you can play both styles. Take celeste: your first playthrough will probably be like 20-40 hours, because you will take your time, see the story, think about the platforming, find secrets
      But then you played every single level, and ask yourself "what if I just tried to play first level again?", and that level that you've spent an hour at first, you will get through in like 5 minutes. Then you try the second level... And you're hooked
      It's kind of amazing how there is literally two games: one for slow and enjoyable playthrough, and one for speedruning; all in one package

    • @Ashnal
      @Ashnal 6 месяцев назад +13

      You might be thinking of the more popularized speedrunning that Circle mentioned early in the video, where player speedruns a game that wasn't designed for it. But in the later parts of the video he talks about games that are designed around individual level runs, that may or may not have more self paced story and other elements in between speeding through those individual levels.
      Key difference being, a game designed for individual level speedrunning usually doesn't try to tell a story or introduce characters while your're going fast. They do it in between when you're not being timed. That way you can get both an entertaining story and fast gameplay in a way that meshes well.

    One of my favorite games to watch speed ran is an older title called Mirror’s Edge. It’s a fast paced FPP, first person parkour, game that just looks amazing when played flawlessly. I have never picked up the game myself, I am trash at got-to-go quick games, but it’s a titles that I’ll continuously go back and watch speed runners play on RUclips.

    Ultrakill should have been a main section of the video, its story is good, graphics are goofy, and is just CHAOS. Same like almost every other game like it but you is a funny robot in hell killing everyone for no reason.

    as someone who got a little too into speedrunning ultrakill, thank you for not over-glorifying its speedrunning-ness, of course it's a main thought of the devs, i mean, the level ranks with millisecond timers make that pretty obvious, but there's barely anything hidden behind "going fast", it's a lot more just "look online to see if i'm faster than the others". ultrakill is mainly focused on making you feel unstoppable in a VERY stylised environment, the speedrunning just comes naturally with the amount of tech hakita lets you do

    Crumble is one of the best games ever with an amazing physics system and very simple controls. Ik u showed Katana Zero very breifly but its def worth a mention as ghostrunner is esentially a 3D version of it. Titanfall 2 is also worth mentioning just cause its so good 🔥

    • @royaltinman2226

      *Short answer*
      Less about recognition from others and more on self accomplishment. The ability to look at oneself and say "I did this and I am proud of it"
      *Long Answer*
      For everyone what they deem as proud work is different for everyone.
      Myself personally I am a situational completionist.
      I am glad when I go through every sidequest in a game, and unlock every achievement, except when that achievement requires me to experience the whole game for a second time, when I'd rather just move on, or doing something that will give me stress. Like beating hollowknight on the permadeath mode. I would rather do anything else.

  • @BrimBlam

    Great video, glad to know I have some games I could give a chance sometime. Neon Whites probably what I'd play first. Okay now the rest of the comments unrelated but I didnt want to waste the topic:
    reading the title of this video before clicking had me thinking about how even if your not a speedrunner, theres plenty of games with easy speedrun tricks that just become "You do it cuz."
    My own personal example is I am one of maybe 5 or 6 people who would say they enjoy Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, and I've learned dialouge skips, actual map skips, abused the hell out of grenade jumps, and has also abused a fair amount of bugs that solely benefit you. I still cant explain clearly what it is about the game that makes it fun to just fly through, but its honestly a lot of fun. I am commiting sacrilege by saying I've played and mastered this more than I have 2.

    Wonderful video as usual! Very funny and well animated. Really liking these more long form ones, you really get to delve into a topic. And what a topic it was!
    These games all slap. You also mentioned a handful of games I’m gonna def add to my wishlist, like Kick Bastards and Cyber Hook. Huge fan of platformers.
    I have all but 2 achievements in Neon White, that game was so fun. Don’t have it in me atm to do the “beat the game in one life” achievements, but man, this game was good. Fantastic soundtrack as well. I forgot about how good the Insight mechanic was. So cool to see “oh shit, there’s a whole other route I was completely oblivious to” and try to master that one.
    Pizza Tower is incredibly fun as well. Very wonky to start off, but feels great once you get a handle on the controls. Very satisfying to figure out the proper pathing to get the S and P ranks. Those final few achievements have been kicking my ass.
    Ghostrunner is great, don’t have much to say other than the movement was pretty good feeling. The instant respawn is very appreciated. Great soundtrack too.
    Celeste is wonderful, easily one of my favorite games. Wonderful game feel, art, soundtrack, story, all of the above. Whole lotta optional challenges too. Looking at you, golden berries.
    Katana Zero is a lot like Ghostrunner in a way, just 2D. Very good game. Killer soundtrack too.

    I wanna suggest Mullet Madjack too. Not only it is a fast paced FPS, but one of its key features is that if you don't kill or do funny stuff you straight up DIE. And it's not a matter of restarting the level, but restarting up until your last checkpoint, which usually is every 10 levels.
    And there's Gianni Matragrano voicing the villain
