Is It Possible To Beat Sonic Boom Rise of Lyric without Getting Hit? (4K subscriber special) 

Better question for your video buddy... *Why would you even play this game ?*

that rock with the giant screen-covering hitbox in the underwater autoscroller is just so typical for this game lmao

"This hit box lasted longer than the entire [Sonic] boom franchise ever did." Fucking savage. Brutal. Bravo.

12:09 never thought I would be jumpscared by a laser sound effect in Sonic boom Rise of Lyric for the Nintendo Wii U

Wow. You are probably the only person in the world to avoid that piece of rubble in the underground water vault (26:16). You, sir, have a dedication one can dream of. Amazing content, dude. Can't wait to see this channel grow.

Gotta say that final bit with dodging in the lyric boss battle killed me.

I appreciate you for making challenge videos of two of the most hated Sonic games because no one else wants to. A true hero

That part at 12:08 with Lazer was just great.

As someone who finished Sonic Boom Rise of Lyric four times and who love this game a lot, it was really cool another person passionate enough about this game to make a challenge like that. The reveal at the end that you could just spam the dodge to get infinite I-frames is just priceless.

The subspace emissary comparison was so out of nowhere, but I loved it.

Discovering the win button in the last three minutes. Dang.

I like how he's doing challenges on Sonic games that most people wouldn't even bother considering. I hope he considers doing one on Sonic Battle or Chronicles. Heck maybe cover the storybook series and do something like "how many sword swings does it take to beat Sonic and the Black Knight?"

I like how you narrarate it as if we would do this challenge ourselves lol

Gameplay and strategy: 10/10. Commentary 10/10. Editing 10/10. The random gags fit so well into the video and I love your honesty. I think I found your channel not long before you posted your second video and I was pleasantly surprised by how well the "Is It Possible To Beat Shadow the Hedgehog without Weapons and Vehicles?" was made since it was your first. I'm cool with waiting a few months for uploads given how high quality they are, plus I don't want you getting burned out or running out of content ideas. Heck, your videos are more active in my life than my dad lol. :D

No joke, this video partially going over the actual gamedesign makes me really feel how interessting it actually could have been if Sega didn't absolutely murder it. Ah man, great video regardless, it was especially hilarious to find out that the game has a Birth by Sleep-dodge and one can just spam the button because of it. 36:50 Lol

the fucking "LASER" almost kills me god this game is broken, i'm so happy you did this. i was very excited for this video some reason lol

as one of the 4 people on earth who grew up with this game as a kid, it’s so strange seeing someone acknowledge it after all these years

I've never played Lyric but I watched anyway. That's staying power. While it would be cool for what you say at the end of the video, you wouldn't want to suffer burnout by going too fast. My suggestion for the next video: Sonic Unleashed without touching a single ring. It also doubles as a "don't get hit", at least for the Hedgehog portions.

Finding out during the last battle that you could have been invincible almost any time you had control over your character... I think I'd have trashed the video if I learned that, but I'm glad you didn't :v Jokes aside, this was a bit of a learning experience. I opted for Shattered Crystal over Rise of Lyric so I never played this one, but I didn't hear many nice things about it. Going through the game without getting hit does expose how the game was designed in a lot of areas, for better or for worse, and I do find that interesting regardless of the quality of the game itself.

Just from the mic quality and editing alone I can see a big improvement from your last two videos. Amazing content as always, keep growing friend!

I said it once and I'll say it again. The fact that you played this on regular hardware really shows how easy the challenge is. It really shows how determined you are to complete this challenge. I much as I want to feel bad for the fact that this challenge took up so much of your time, it really shows how much effort you put into this video.

0:26 WTF!?!?! Did y'all see that transition it was so cool

The king has returned I swear your videos get better and better. Can’t wait to see how big you get with this dedication and awesome content! Great job king!!:)

This doesn't really affect the challenge that much, but with those two bridges around the 9 minute mark, you don't actually need to fight the enemies; you just have to dodge until the bridge aligns

you discovering the "untouchable card" in the very end of the game reminds me of my first time playing Sonic Heroes and discovering team blast.......at the Metal Sonic battle. not before.

Woah this challenge *Actually* almost makes this game seem fun. The amount of commitment to this broken game is commendable. I mean you can't even 100% it. BRUH u had me at that SICK ass sub-roll u did in that underwater section. That was some galaxy brain level thinking. Also "terrifically talented two-tailed technician" was not lost on me.-

20:04 remember when tails killed a hive worm god? That was wild.

The videos you make seem fitting of a RU-vidr with 500,000 subscribers dude, you’re amazing!

I've never seen any gameplay for this game, and honestly that makes me more pumped to see how this whole thing goes. Glad to see another vid from you! Comfy stuff.

Great challenge! (Even though you had a readily available invincibility button 🤣) I was never a fan of Rise of Lyric, but you made it way more interesting! Also yooo we already have Wii U emulation?? (I also live under a rock, that's amazing!)

Rip this man’s sanity 😭💀🪦

I will forgive the unexpected meme bardment FNF reference section simply because Triple Trouble goes hard.

I love how tails is the main focus of the run and not sonic for once

XD. The section about you just figuring out that Wii U emulation exists had me dying. Here's another fact that'll blow your mind: Switch emulation exists too, lol. Since Nintendo consoles are usually so underpowered, they're becoming infinitely easier to emulate as time goes on.

This sounds like actual hell

As a zoner main, I endorse this challenge

29:45 I don't think I've ever laughed so hard from being caught off-guard

I've been emulating my Wii U games for at least 6 years now. My Wii U gamepad started getting stick drift and those things just aren't replaceable. Even during the Wii U lifespan Nintendo didn't sell them, they wanted you to send your entire Wii U as an RMA and still charge $150. That was half the price the entire system was when I got it.

11:23 Fun fact: These enemies are called "Roller Recoilers" (or Roller Bouncers in later levels like Crater Lake, or Roller Shockers in later levels like Creeper Gorge), and they are my favorite enemies in the game.

this is the first video of yours ive seen and i can very clearly tell you play fighting games just based on how you talk

I love your approach. When I play a game, I have already decided to try to get fun out of it, even if the game isn't offering fun on it's own terms. Sonic is a series that especially benefits from this approach sometimes, and I love finding a new way to enjoy a hard to love game.

This man’s sanity will decrease even more when he does a Frontiers version of this 💀💀

Yep, you've got a knack for this, this was a very engaging and entertaining challenge to watch Keep on keeping on with whatever feels natural, it'll be interesting to see what you think of next

I can’t stop rewatching this. Your video is so good man.

I am not feeling very well lately and your videos has cheered me up a lot. Thanks for the amazing content!

I'm glad I subscribed to your channel. I always seem to learn something new while watching your content.

I’ll be looking forward to your next upload!

Your content is incredible. Proud that I can say I've been here since the beginning.

You played sonic boom... you deserve a thumbs up.

You using the Piranha Plant model in Smash to speak is really cool lol Super cool video. Looking forward to more content

Nice job man. Idk how you had the patience to do this but respect. Can’t wait to see what you do next.

I just found your channel and I really enjoy this Sonic content ☺ Thank you for that!

Dude you make some really good challenge content. Its suprised me greatly when i watched your shadow video becuas ei was thinking you had to be at least a semi big youtuber just to discover you ha donly uploaded 2 videos. Keep rocking it with the content! Also dont feel the need to rush out more videos cuz all the real fans will stay subscribed even if you go dark for a while. I for one whould rather have a high quality video every 4 or 5 or so month then have you scramble to release a video every month cuz thats just gonna result in your mental health being strained. (And hell the content whoul be lower wuality because of it so nobody wins)

Hey, take your time. As much as I'd like more frequent content, you should do what's best for you. Also, as much as I enjoy the cut-in edits, they are a little loud. The bit before the Eggman fight was practically a jumpscare. Or maybe that was intentional The audio cutoff at the Shadow reveal was hilarious. Looking forward to the Black Knight video!

Excellent job, it is very cool that you got around getting hit underwater.

Bro's gonna get big

I think your videos are pretty nice and I'm happy to hear that you'll try one video per month, just remember to stay hydrated!

Cool video! Would love to see a challenge video for more unknown games like Tails Adventure or Knuckles Chaotix.

Finally a video on one of my favorite sonic games

Nice vid dude

Nice challenge run buddy!

It’s happening he’s back! Thanks In advance for the video. Seriously think you are a great RU-vidr and I’m glad you made another video. Don’t forget us when you make it to that half a mil sub count!

I love the intro with the piranha plant, reminds me of the glory days of Brawl machinimas, it's a simple thing but I appreciate it

The man returns

Cool video! Would love to see a challenge video for more unknown games like Sonic Chronicles, Tails Adventure or Knuckles Chaotix and others. Feel like some games in the Sonic universe are hated or not as well known so have no challenges or not that many.

No tax evasion allowed, knuckles always pays his taxes, and thus, must be grounded

This video is probably infinitely more fun to watch than the game is to play.

Questions we never knew we needed

Thank you for the video.

Great job

"Uh oh, this platform is a big circle! The bad guys must be about to cleverly throw another small group of enemies at us while we suspect nothing!"

Yay he's back.

12:04 I burst out laughing at this part

Man fights game mechanics [Colorized] 2022

this game makes me wanna play Sonic Boom haha Sega should've had you showcase this game

OH THIS IS A NEW VIDEO?, AND THERES ONLY 3 VIDEOS? THESE ARE GOOD DO MORE

Man I remember when you somewhere in the hundreds subscribers

Nice vid

18:31 best joke ive ever seen keep it up mate

Ow, the edge is in this game!

This should be fun

Thank you for the effort you went to in this game :) But... Uh... I'd not seen Sonic Boom in action before, and whenever I see Knuckles on-screen all I can do is stare at him. What the hell happened, everyone else looks normal and then he looks so... weird 😵

Aka: "Knuckles almost ruins the challenge with a pat to the back!"

You’re a brave man for taking your time to being the only one to do this lol

Hey, here another like and comment for your algorithm

truly the video game of all time

Every day, a Sonic gets hit over 10000 times, together we can stop this.

9:00 as annoying as all those retries must have been it really does illustrate the satisfaction that can come from having a challenge and overcoming it :)

I like how instead of: "oh 80% of the game is possible without X thing but with Y and Z exceptions" You either find a way to progress without needing to make exceptions or the whole challenge is impossible

I wonder if that overly forgiving checkpoint was a debug option that was left on by accident when the game shipped?

18:21 the moment I clicked on this video, I knew this scene would be here.

26:16 had me dying, and I DON'T KNOW WHY 🤣🤣

Epic

29:47 Eggman’s section in triple trouble!? INSTANT SUBSCRIPTION

That *“L A S E R ! ! !”* Caught me off guard

Ok i like this challenge!

I feel so bad for bigredbutton, they could have made a great sonic game but with SEGA and Nintendo breathing down their necks it was near impossible

33:39 No, Patrick, the kid The lid _The lid_ The lid The lid, the lid, lid, lid,lid…..

I remember playing this game with my brother this game is fun with a friend
