Shovel Knight Developers React to 42 Minute Speedrun 

42:34 Oh, come on, you're not even gonna use Shield Knight? That's the whole point of the GAME!

Lol exactly, only redeeming thing here

Nah, they just watched the one that Double Fine did years ago. Not complaining; I love having more videos like this to watch.

Yeah, he actually broke 3 vertebrae, and is now paralyzed from the waist down 😞

@@boringsupernova4836 fr?

@@deleted4913 yes

it is legit the only thing i watch here, and i watched all of them so far.

Their reviews get several times more views

Trygator Yeah I have no clue what else is posted on ign I got recommended a devs react video and have been binging the playlist

After a day it 60k views which is not that much especially as they 13M subs

@@FraserSouris Really? The Outer Worlds speedrun reaction got over 8 million views.

"She's your friend!"

He punched the remnant's face off with those knuckle dusters!

same I was hoping that they would notice it, but it got a chuckle out of me nonetheless.

what does that mean?

Areeb This is a speed run, so obviously he’s played this game many times in order to learn and optimize it. By labeling it “first time blind play through,” he’s saying that it’s his first time playing the game and that he’s never seen gameplay before

@@unseenasymptote4976 how can he play the game and then didn't play the game? what? I thought it means like random seed now I'm more confused...

@@Sjnaka Its either something he forgot to remove from a previous stream or its a joke

Josh Canfield and then theres Todd Howard lol

Along with doom eternal devs

These guys are exactly how i thought they would be from playing the game.

@@carbonbeaker409 The Doom Eternal devs definitely enjoyed seeing Xamide destroy their game.

@@garrettk7166 I felt like it hurt their pride just a bit watching all the things they didn't fix, but they still enjoyed watching it. Might just be me projecting though.

Md Mamun Kaiser Zisan dude right?! Lol it’s so oddly sweet

I honestly could not stand it

Dunno, wasn't keen myself

Like this:- (Plague knight) Hee Hee Hee

Almost like Butthead

It's 2020, you cannot be a game developer and don't know that speedruns exist or have never seen one. 99% of developers know that speedruns and exist and have already seen one - maybe just not about their own game

And then there's the Doom Eternal devs, who in their video tried to tell speedrunners that beating the whole game as fast as possible the way it was intended would be more impressive. I love Doom but I instantly clicked off of that video when I heard that. Edit: I get it guys, I was a bit too quick to judge them based off of one sentence early in the video. I've since watched the whole video.

@@draaxus2969 They warmed up to his speedrun shortly after that. It's worth watching the rest of the video. I do agree that it wasn't the best sentence for them to say.

@@draaxus2969 It's a great vid and they are funny devs. I encourage you to just ignore that sentence and watch the rest of it.

@@Morkelfan eh alright. Fair enough.

Can't believe I had hope for a moment there...

it has already been killed

@@McGeet Tragic

First time blind play through

If i was a developer i would probably look at stuff like this and go Is this bug/skip a somewhat easy thing to do that could happen for regular or casual gamers ? In that case we might need to check on it so they dont get bummed out over something breaking or not working the Way it should Or is it something that takes time and dedikation to pull off ? In which case we Can leave it in since only people actively looking for it Will come across it I feel like thats how devs like these might look at breaks or skips in their game since there is no reason to fix something if only a small part of the community is gonna find it

an awesome flaw isn't a flaw

Agent 008 this has me howling with laughter LOL

*S P E D R A N*

@@zekeram129 spedrannnd

nintendo too

definitely not a first time blind playthrough

@@ColloseusXReturns imagine missing the joke by THAT much

@@McGeet missthejoke%

Well when a game is new I'm sure that technically happens often.

@@ColloseusXReturns Man got ratio'd by 103 likes

I think IGN content is best when their employees have no hand in it

ArtificialAndrew when only their game loving employees have a hand in it. And go solely off of their love for the hobby instead of trying to create in wanted drama for attention

When companies exist like whichever one that made that terrible pc build video, the bar is set pretty low

At least they did around the start

ya they did say it at the start

yeah i was wondering how come this wasn't done already

"Tool Assisted Speedrun Speedruns"

TAS also means "Tool Assisted Superplay"

Plus, when that term was invented there were only a few thousand people on earth, so every life was precious.

i am pretty sure that is the run they talked about, hypemode engaged! PJ is my favourite speedrunner, always great commentary. defintiely recommend people to check out his GDQ runs

@@M0torsagmannen Same, PJ is always so damn entertaining to watch. PJ and mario-romhacks are the only runs I 100% cant miss every gdq. I of course watch a lot more but yeah you know, some things you just cant miss :)

Another comment said it was related to a punishment for Roman legions. Supposedly, upon failing an important task, the legion would line up and every 10th person would be killed.

Hello from 2090

Great comedian

And mega man

@@EX0ART Just mega man really. This game is mega man with a shovel. With a Mario 3 overworld.

@@Smoove_J I know that you dirt

I loved it when they said, "Oh it's even that big of a deal." Except, you know, when your commanding officer decides your cohort didn't perform adequately and therefore must be decimated and you have to draw lots to see who gets beaten to death by his peers.

just your black body radiation fact of the day

Really?! I had to watch the video on mute because of it.

Ashlynn Preston i was happy when i saw the time

He actually took it back with 42:14

I love shovel knigh too :) I know a channel called "Brothers Theory Productions" They make awesome theories about games and movies alike. They already made 2 theories about Shovel Knight. As a subscriber, I am telling you that you should defintily subscribe to the channel :) Personally, i am a big fan of their theories, mostly the shovel knight theories and I think they deserve more appreciation and more subscribers as well. Besides, if you are subscribed to the channel, you get the power to decide what game or movie they will analyse next. You just have to comment your suggestion in their comment section :) I hope you enjoy :)

It's more fun when they are clueless

Pridemoor Keep is a great one. Flying Machine is one of my favorites too.

Why's she called the enchantess then? There's an option to change if the characters are male or female

Just have them react to all 4 campaigns

@@Fresh_Knight That would be cool, but plague of shadows has the best-looking speedrun.

bob shadowblade Eh I like SoT more tbh

No, they should do King of Cards 100% speedrun if they do even just one more of these. I could really stand to hear them talk for 2 hours straight.
