I was blown away when the tech was all about things like the meat hook level skip. Now there's using the chefs to clip you through the doors haha! Glad to see how you speed-runners work hard to evolve the meta! Congratulations on your accomplishment and hard work!
Cutting the janitor’s arms off in SEVEN SECONDS is absolutely insane. Mad respect for you man, this is so cool to me as someone who just plays games casually
26:33 Yesterday I was playing with a friend of mine and I was getting caught by the guests in this area over and over again. He suggested that I climb using the sausages like I did before but I didn't listen. I said you can sling using the sausages but even if I did I can't grab on to anything. Welp, apparently you can.
Damn I've been trying to speedrun and my fastest time was like 1 hour 30 minutes and that was doing no skips and I died a few times didn't know someone would completing destroy it lol it blues my mind what people can do
I love the moment when you watch a speedrun for a game first time. Just seeing the skips and techniques is mindblowing xDD Even the simple stuff like getting in an elevator with the final boss to skip the level would've never occured to me let alone the clipping and stuff xDD I love it
fun fact at 19:12 if you stay on the hook by spamming space while having the grab button pressed you can keep going and once six and the hook get out of sight they will both get deleted leaving the player on a black screen with nothing to do because like i previously said six get DELETED the only way to fix this is to restart from checkpoint
Calling all speedrunners! Here is a list of all the points in the video where a split is made. E.g. on The Kitchen, if you press on the time, you get to the point where he splits that segment! Rope: 3:10 Bread: 5:09 The Prison: 7:53 Trap: 10:39 Elevator: 13:05 TV-Room: 15:47 The Lair: 18:14 Freezer: 22:15 The Kitchen: 25:08 Bottle: 27:12 The Guest Area: 29:31 Lady's Quarters: 33:32
@@SaiMoen Okay cool, i just wrote that comment for myself so I can skip in your run and see how you did glitches because I'm trying to improve my skills in my runs with this video 😄
So, as someone who is an avid fan of this franchise (particularly this first game) and has played it many many times but not an actual speedrunner - aside from the achievement/trophy for beating it under an hour without dying which I know you probably laugh at lol - besides the one hunger skip that I noticed was missed in chapter 3 which very well might have been intentional for some reason, what if any changes or improvements can even be made to this? Secondary question being, are you done with this game now or do you still try to improve on that/ if your record is beaten will you run it again?
eventually I will try to beat it as there is always time to be saved, maybe this year, maybe right before ln3 is released (as per the bandai namco leak release date at least)
If I may ask, why does the speedrun end after the final boss battle and not where the game actually ends? Loved the speedrun, very impressive, just curious.
The moderators on speedrun.com argued, when the rules were being made, that since the part after the mirror shattering was just holding w (up), there was no way to save any time and it's also boring to watch and to play and takes a couple minutes. Therefore, the timer should stop at the mirror breaking. At least that's my assumption because I wasn't there when they were arguing about it.
Is there a discord for LN speedruns? I've recently got into speedrunning this game but all the tricks i watch in this video i cant find a tutorial anywhere for them, idk how to learn the tricks if idk how to do them in the first place 😂
I think if no more glitches will be found, we'll be able to save round about 5 to maximum 10 seconds. But your run is extremly well played, I only saw one or two scenes, where you could have saved some frames, but that's it. I'm a Little Nightmares Speedruner by myself and I'm actually trying to find new glitches to break the game a bit more, but it's really hard. But with your run I'll try to improve my speedrun skills in this amazing game!
It's a bit of a mess with offline steam not tracking it (so ln2 doesn't update on launch) and gpu driver issues causing the times to be reset in there as well, but iirc I have about 800 hours in both games combined and a good amount of that is doing a lot of runs, so I'd say that like 250-300 hours was spent not doing runs, but practicing and glitchhunting. Maybe like 200 hours of that was just practicing? I could also be misremembering and it could be way lower but idk
According to steamDB the last update was in 2018, which was most likely the update that added the DLC's. It can be assumed that basically nothing has ever been fixed and since Tarsier no longer will be working on LN it seems as though there will no longer be updates on any currently released Little Nightmares games. So no they won't fix it.
I'm really curious, is there a reason why you have such a long pause before going to kill The Lady? I'm fascinated by speedruns but I'm really curious if there's something behind this part in particular?
The timer ends when the mirror shatters (as per speedrun.com rules), because the part after it is basically just a fixed time where you slowly walk forwards. So I went into chat for a moment, and then continued to the credits, as I usually do on a personal best.
well done, but using glitches is a bit cheating 😂 but great mastery to do em all in sequence. one failure at the end, and you not achieve it. the hardest trophy ever, for you an easy run 👍 btw. thanks showing those secrets! astonishing!
Something I heard with the buffet people(I forgot what their called)say “EEEAAAT TIIIMME” and “YUM” when your either in the buffet or see them coming in The “I didn’t hear it” group | | \/
How do you skip the first cutscene? I tried restarting from checkpoint but all it did was restart the cutscene. Does this just not work on the switch and ps4 version or am I doing something wrong?
I don't play on console myself, but looking at switch and PS4/PS5 runs they do the same thing as I do (new game, restart to checkpoint as soon as possible), so I'm not sure how it restarts the cutscene in your case.
The speedrun.com moderators decided upon that when the game came out pretty much, I wasn't there at the time, but I think it's just because the rest of the game is just an autoscroller and not fun to speedrun.
or cutting off the janitors arms, i managed to do first bar but died on the second. do i just have to get to the second bar before the janitor wraps his arms around the bars?
It's a trick called 0-cycle, where you bait the janitor to go for a grab at the start, so he has to wait there for a bit. Then you pull the first bar before he even arrives and then he enters the fight with the wrong animation and then he can't grab you indefinitely (unless you restart to checkpoint).
the first one is to spawn on the right side of the room (after the crank), with full stamina. The second one is to clear the bug that occurs when you manage to hop through the bar and also to get a predictable light/cart pattern on the second medusa.
Because it's pretty much just autoscroller after that point, and it's easier to time console runs due to the black screen I'd assume (idk I'm not a verifier)
