[Resident Evil 4 Remake] Minimalist (SG-09 R/Knives Only), Professional, No Save No Damage, S+ Rank 

*Bosses / Minibosses:* - Del Lago (0:38:30) - El Gigante (0:58:06) - Bella Sisters (1:19:02) - Bitores Mendez (1:25:33) - Garrador (1:34:38) - Double Garradors (2:31:48) - Verdugo (2:39:18) - Double El Gigante (2:50:20) - Krauser's knife fight (3:02:15) - Salazar (3:14:37) - Krauser 2 (4:07:18) - Krauser 3 (4:11:05) - Mutated Krauser (4:12:54) - Saddler (4:55:19) *Weapon upgrades:* - Fully upgraded SG-09 R - before El Gigante (0:57:13) - Fully upgraded Combat Knife - chapter 7 (1:32:38) - Fully upgraded Fighting Knife - chapter 15 (4:17:35) *Notes:* - In the minimalist run, you're still allowed to use the cannon in chapters 7 and 8, the lava trap in chapter 11 to kill El Gigantes and the turrets in chapter 15. I made to sure to get the challenge done in the run and you can see it trigger in the results screen as proof. - If you're doing the minimalist challenge (without being restricted to just SG-09 R), I recommend fully investing in the SG-09 R until you get to the castle, then you should invest in the Blacktail and later get the Matilda with the stock. For the Island, you should keep the Blacktail for most encounters and use the Matilda with the stock for Krauser and Saddler. - Some parts didn't go as intended. One of them was the cabin: some small mistakes at the end of phase 1 led to a chaotic opening of phase 2 and I unintentionally killed 5 enemies triggering the brute so I had to improvise - please check a separate video I recently uploaded with the correct methodology for phase 2. Saddler's fight was a bit sloppy as I missed a few important shots during the Novistadors summoning so I was a bit late to move to the lower platform (luckily it was still fine as he went for the horizontal acid attack). The Bella sisters in chapter 6 also went poorly due to some unfortunate enemy placements and small mistakes. In the village siege, I had an unfortunate opening with too many grabbers pressuring me into the little shack and then I had a lucky parry at 0:05:06 that I happened to get because I was aiming to reorient Leon towards the Ganado for a knife execution. - I had to take a break at 1:51:10 for about 15 minutes so I edited out the long pause I had in the run.

My guy, I am on vacation with my family in Florida, I don’t like theme parks (we’re here for our kids) the food is overpriced, a beer is ten dollars, I have nothing but awful hotel tv in my room and then you Aether….you come along and upload this. You my friend are an absolute Godsend and have single-handedly made this the best vacation ever!!❤ I love you, Bro!!!

I’ve been waiting for this!! Can’t wait to learn!

I love your runs of this game, so much replayability man! Impressive skills each run.

Dude this is impressive. I remember how hard it was for me to get S+ on professional. And you do it with only the handgun and knife. Earn yourself a subscriber. Nice work!

Damn, the SG-09R is fully upgraded in 57:13, much faster than I expected, I thought it'd only be available when it reaches Castle at least Knife: 1:32:38

Can’t Wait For The Evil Within🤩

was in and out of the streams when you were attempting and routing. glad to see you got it finished, looking forward to watching this.

Great run my friend. Love your videos. Always nice to pick up a few tricks as well as time and ammo savers. Stay well.

Thanks for this. I always enjoy watching you play.

The magician at work once again. Seems you've always got something new for us, well done!

I was waiting on this one!! Love your channel, keep up the good work

It's always a pleasure to watch you play Resident Evil. How perfectly you parry and dodge with the knife is insane. Awesome run Bro 😊💪💪

Love your videos man. Been binge watching all your stuff

I get excited when I see new videos from you playing this game, this will be a fun watch! Thank you for your time!

Welcome back. Love your gameplay. Been here for a month now and have been obsessively watching your vids lol

Thank you. I was waiting for this. 🙂

It’s a good day when Aether uploads a new RE4R video. Masterclass speed runner

you’re one of the best re players for sure, going for professional no save no damage myself referring to your other videos! It’s insane that you got this run so perfectly

I love this channel. You're amazing, bro

Your parrying timing is nuts man. Awesome work as always 🫡

amazing stuff watching this tonight!!

The legend is back with another challenge walkthrough!! ❤❤👌🏼👌🏼🔥🔥

Me encantan tus videos amigo, literal juegas profesionalmente, gracias a ti he disfrutado más el juego 🎉🎉

Шикарное видео, местами ты проходишь быстрее , чем играть как обычно со всем оружием. приятно смотреть, как управляешь геймпадом 👍

Amazing stuff, real nice

This was amazing good job 👏

Awesome run!

Wow bro😮 love your game play ❤❤

you are the goat, you are a big help in my runs

Just recently bought RE4 remake and found that I suck at it much more than the original 😅 I've been watching your vids for help and they've been great. Ran through all the other Leon ones though so this is great timing. You're awesome brother

Now i have something to watch while at work

Nice vid your emerging now

Your gameplay is very soothing. Might sound weird but its very pleasant. This is a perfect run as usual

amazing job as always. congratz and thx for timestamps 👍

You are so genius dude , what a great gameplay❤❤

You are a LEGEND ❤❤❤

THE GOAT RETURNS!!!

منتظرت بودیم ❤❤❤

Meu sonho é jogar como você haha, parabéns cara você faz um trabalho incrível.

You are Crazy, wowwwwww!! Incredible

You are best player I ever seen at this game 12 20 when you knocked off the bull brute of the bridge 😮

Damn bro u must have balls of steel to do this challenge.Ur a beast in this game gg💪

I wish I could have subscribed to your channel more than once

Bro awesome

Dude hell yes!

The man, the myth, the legend himself returns with sg09r

really nice runs , was kinda wondering if you are considering other games besides Resident evil games , like the witcher no dmg runs , or any other games like that , again really like your runs keep up the good work ;)

It really takes a lot of skill, well done

My gawd. _Respect_ 🫡

Its crazy, & we like it. if u can speedrun with hardest difficulty, then the 100 % cinematic kill all enemies is just a child play for u, Aether. Respect to you, Sir 🔥🔥🔥

I already have S Plus but I'm watching it for fun your Gameplay is amazing ❤❤❤

My goat

Always strive for perfection I see.

As she said (You are really the best)

Bro, I really hope that your channel grow up. Your gameplays are extremely perfect.

Hey aether You are king resident evils .🎉

Legendary

Pro player 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

The best challenges you guys create is that "kill all" enemy. Much better and fun.

normally miniamalist runs aren't my thing, but this was solid. so fast and clean, and the gunplay felt alot less..sloggy then the old RE4 Knife only runs seemed to feel to me :D

Cool.

Insane aim bro

wow. just wow.

12:13 awesome!

Hell yeah you bro your Resident Evil runs are unmatched there’s no doubt about it, is it safe to assume you’ll be doing resident evil code Veronica remake when it releases?

2:50:48 luis just flyin 🗿

Keep in mind to do this kind of thing Leon does in this video, he would have to be a psychic, and know all the enemies positions and how to deal with them.

let's go to another video of the best resident player. save 🇧🇷🇧🇷

1:07:53 "Just shut up"🤣

❤❤❤❤

I feel like you need to do another vdeo of your failed attempts from this run. People need to see that you're human after all lol. Great run. The water hall part looked so smooth for you. I've had so many headaches on that last wave of enemies.

The rpd uniform looks good in re4r

Yeah first ❤

still my favorite RE player 🫶🏼

Leon "running" at the speed, like he's walking home after having a box of beer, is killing me. I like the remake, but movement somtimes, makes me cry..

finally a new RE4R run, let's see how good Aether did in this one (loved the costume, is it a mod or is something that can be unlocked in the game?)

I used the Punisher for my minimalist run, it was fun, too

damn, it's good. Although nothing is more satisfying to watch than a kill all enemies run. 100% accuracy, kill all enemies next?

Best part is dude this on PS5 which seems a big challenge!

I love so much how you played these games. Also, I want to know is you can do a gamplay like this with the japanese audio. It's really hard to find another one like this in japanese. Would you do it?

Keep have fun and don't forget to share your skill !

4:05 Sharp eyesight and quick hands👍

Lore accurate Leon Kennedy

This is how leon should be in his journey, only his main HG + knives🤣

Aether, are you gonna do the Resident Evil 5 Ultimate HD Edtion mod since it came out past year? And still with any signs of "Kill All Enemies, No Upgrades, No Adam's Shop, No Save, and No Damage" as well?

The gun is kind of overpowerd haha But not when I play the game, then it's quite bad =P

sg09 is underrated. with its 30% crit chance it can deal some serious damage.

Your perfect gamer but i have s rank all difficulty for Leon and ada not s+only s rank is perfect for me ❤😊😊😊

57:03 the Red 9 is cheaper than a Gold Chicken Egg 😅

What GPU or settings are you using to get stable 60 fps on cutscenes? I use a 3060 12gb and whenever there are two people in a cutscene my game goes into the 50 fps mark when zoomed in on them

I don't even want to think about how long it took to route all this.

Those damn chickens that can stun you in the village lol. Also, the RPD outfit should have been in the game, or at the very least DLC. Would rather had gotten that than all the new outfits combined really.

First 🎉🎉
