Just wanna post a comment with some info about the run and why the time went down a decent bit. Main reason sub 19 is possible now is because of the new trampoline skip, where you bounce off the tree, and if done perfectly can send you straight to the elevator. There was also a method found to boost twice on the champagne bottle, allowing us to launch straight to the rainbow bridge before dragon. The "champagne" strat can be done on 120 fps, however for fairness amongst those with weaker pcs, the leaderboard rule is that you can only do it on 30 fps. Sub 19 is closing in will hopefully get it tomorrow!
@@AIuzkyIf you like the 1 minute speedrun good for you but I find that shit boring af and not as thrilling as this run where one mistake can end up in you failing to get the wr, So I guess it's up to you whichever wr you wanna acknowledge (-+-_-+-)/)
@@AIuzky exploit / major glitch. Probably could be another category but they're different. One uses the mechanics to break the game and the other one just straight up bugs or glitches what shouldn't be possible at all. That is why runs are divided by Any% No Major Glitches and Any%. So both are valid runs but they belong to different categories.
It fascinates me how quickly Dist can learn and retain speedrun routes. I know this one is fairly simple compared to his others but still, the man is a legend. Keep it up.
Fr think he's one of the best (maybe the best just in my opinion) all around speedrunners. Genuinely seems like his name pops up everywhere, like just the versatility is incredible
@@colwellalecI mean most speedrunners focus on just one game and perfect it. Most top level speedrunners in highly competitive games could probably do similar stuff. I would even say that excelling in 1 really competitive and optimized game is more impressive than constantly switching games and claiming records in an unoptimized environment. Still what dist does is really impressive nonetheless.
for some reason, your wrs have been coming up on my home page and i've been watching, i love how every time you get a wr, there's always multiple mistakes that you can correct next time. good luck!!!
beating the second fastest runner by 53 seconds is huge when every second matters. what an awesome accomplishment. excellent pathing. sub 19 runs are imminent!
For those that don't know, the number at the top right of the timer is his number of attempts at the run. Meaning he did 200 attempts in the last day since the last wr was posted
That counter is a bit misleading cause the way the auto splitter works it counts all his practice sections as well every time he restarts the game I believe.
he has superhuman determination on top of being an absolute godly gamer, the combination of the two is what makes him elite in any game he puts his mind to
I swear this man has the "Midas Touch" because every game he touches, he turns to gold with his runs! Sub 18 in the future?! Keep up the good work Dist! 💪😎
I'm here from the doc vs Timmy video watching them continuously rage and fall and laughing hysterically. Now I've went from laughing to mind blown. This is insane
he missed the bed to subway stairs still, he went to blue barrel, fuck up on pipes, he grab the wall after bed before trampoline, trampoline to elevator he can do it better. grab on to the ring before chess piece. slow mo jump. they is a lot things he can improve on still for lot better time still. 18:40 soon :pausechamp
I have watched many of your speedruns over the years amongst other great runners, and I just wanted to say something to you specifically. You have amazing potential Dist. Incredible patience and instincts. Good job man. Keep up the great work.
not entirely wrong but he's streamed it for 10+ hours a day for a week so relatively it's been a while this run was finished at hour 13 the man is a machine
You have the world record on the new hot game!! good for you. Ive never seen a full playthough of this game, so I watched this to get to see it faster.
The fact that he made so many mistakes early and still broke the record is insane. Like people be playing for hours, not making a mistake trying to get the world record and this man can beat your time casually.
Damn bro it felt like yesterday with that last wr. Your an absolute champ Edit: guys I’ve seen the comments I apologize I thought it really was yesterday I just have bad sense of time sometimes sorry
Dude I almost jumped out of my chair when I saw this. I played this game casually and finished it in 6.8 hours with the winning attempt being 117 minutes. But holy fuck my brain can't compute what's going on in this speedrun
God man you are nuts! I can’t believe how much you’ve been grinding! You deserve this and more! Keep grinding and I know you will get it. Absolutely brilliant.
Watching a new record every day makes it look easy, I don't have time to watch on stream but people must realize how hard Dist is going at this, every new record taking up to 15 hours a day to achieve ! You're a legend of this discipline
You can’t hear it but at 15:52 when he lands on the platform the beat dropped perfectly on ‘new person same old mistakes’ by tame impala, it was pretty sick 🤧 look at chats reactions
This game has some really interesting and it seems like underappreciated visuals. There are all sorts of metaphors and references hidden, there is so much detail in every scene. I haven't played this, but I imagine I would spend a lot of time just taking in the scenery, it's like a fever dream.
I'm so happy that I've beaten the game a couple minutes ago. It's one of the greatest gaming experiences I had in a long time. No joke but this game made me feel something, which isn't something that I expected.
