That's accurate. I'm playing it on 'Easy', (New Game+ with craploads of ammo and upgrades) and I've died at least 7 times. Some of it was from pressing the wrong button and/or getting the long spikes in various spots.
This run really proved, beyond every doubt, that you literally know every nook and cranny of this game. I'm amazed, I wish I could just give you one more like for everytime you surprised me while watching this run. Your commentary never gets boring, keep the good work up.

Evil Within is one of the most enjoyable and memorable horror experiences I've had the pleasure of playing through. Needless to say, twitch or youtube, I'll gladly be watching all the runs you do. Gotta respect your ability to play this game non-stop for all these years.
For some reason if I can’t fall asleep I resort to this video and it always works. This game is super relaxing to watch and listen to. I might also be fucked in the head.
Hey man, just wanted to thank you. I was always scared of this difficulty. And after many failures despite trying to follow the guide, finally made it. Thank you x1000
love that this game is still shown love! This run was astounding to me since i struggled alot on nightmare mode and even quit on one of the later chapters
Always watched your runs and thought oh akumu doesn't look that bad.... after a few chapters in now on standard, this is an absolutely ridiculous achievement. This is one of the hardest games I've played.
I find it absolutely insane how you did this so fast. I just started the game 3 days ago on the easiest difficulty and am on chapter 10! All collectables and no deaths aswell?! You are amazing!
What I love most about this run besides your crazy knowledge about this game is the fact that there's room for approvement and I'll be able to watch another wr run from you later down the line. Amazing run man, keep it up!
watching you play this is just so incredible and helpful, I'm a big time fan of the evil within games and have recently been working through nightmare in the first one and you make it look so easy haha this is amazing!!!! thank you for the videos
just finished my first playthrough of this game and stubled with this speedrun. Very nicely done and very interesting explanation! You know this game amazingly well. Congrats on the run!
I love games like this and resident evil, I've beat this game on all the difficulties, got all 151 collectibles (including: keys, map pieces, tapes etc) and all 75 trophies cus im just obsessed to the point I don't think its healthy anymore
Awesome run dude! This is one of my favorite horror games ever, and I’d even go so far as to call it one of my favorite games ever in general. Just a lot of fun. You did a great job explaining all the mechanics of the run and I always appreciate when a runner can do that. Makes the video so much more enjoyable. Good job on the record and the smooth moves
yo jigzaw, i bought the game about 2 days ago and ive been playing it all day cuz i found it out from you and i have to say that this game is so well made for being a 2014 game and i also love your speedrun considering im so bad that im still on chapter 11 on the easiest diff and 5 almost 6 hours of gameplay, but when i followed all of your tips, im not missing any key. amazing speedrun muchacho
Ashamed it took me 8 months to find this, especially since I love The Evil Within and longplays. Your commentary is good, funny at times, and spot on. I also appreciate your tips and teicks, especially with the Agony Crossbow. I knew it was specual and powerful, but never dreamed of using it like you did. Like using Freeze Bolts to disarm bombs or using Explosive Bolts to turn your allies into Sentient Proximity Bombs. I don't remember everything little thing you said, but when you mentioned "Sebastian's Surprised Pikachu Face", a classic meme used to make a great point, I knew I'd subscribe by the end of it.
Play it for years. Today I started again with the first and second part. However, I have never ventured into this mode. You have my respect, only people who know the game know how incredibly difficult it is 😂
I remember back in 2017 when I played this game to death and got the platinum beating it in Akumu, thanks to you. You somehow got even better at it. I love this game so much. Thank you for keeping it alive.
People haven't experienced pain until they play this game on akumo difficulty. The only other game I played that dissolved my sanity was world at war with the grenade spam
Jesus I love this game and second one too but AKUMU was such a pain to finish. I finished in 17 hours with 452 deaths but It was my second playtrough ever, since I finished game only once before on the survivor diff. You really do have my respect sir, I will also be trying AKUMU again in few months so I hope I can get some better result this time, since I already did it once, and recently finished game with all collectibles 3 times.
The evil within is one of the most underrated 2 games (2nd one was amazing even with the 2nd half villain being so boring and underwhelming compared to the awesomeness of Stefano, a joker style villain with a knack for art and murder). Great gameplay, great horror, best use of Claire de lune I've ever seen on gaming or movie....the stages where it's open world are so fun. The resident evil 4 ripoff arguments have a point, but still don't deter from the gameplay. Love this series, and nice to see you get it done so fast.
speaking solely from my own experience I thought the game was kinda dogshit and I dunno why. Normally even if Im not a big fan of a game i can push through and finish it but this game I couldnt it was just plain out bad.
@@kinsgaming8197 I simply don't agree with you. 1st game has matches which made a big gameplay difference, had better story, better music, better safe room atmosphere and cinematography, and better horror vibe. 2 had superior everything else. Theodore sucked as a villain but stephano made up for it in spades, one of my favorite game villains ever created, even if he stole a lot from the joker.
Looking forward to all your new videos. I love when you comment on what exactly you are doing in the run. I'd buy a membership, but the function has been blocked in Russia :(
2:56:03 - Joseph took multiple sniper shot minutes before this moment; not a scratch on him. Suddenly, a random sniper shot puts him in life threatening situation. Video game logic.
Awesome speedrun, Jigzaw! I know it's not a collectible, but with your knowledge of the game, I was wondering if you knew about something: right after you take control of Seb after the ambulance crash, if you face forward towards the intended path, off to the immediate far left in the dark is a single matchstick. It's just something I never knew was sitting there until recently. Interestingly enough, after picking that up I noticed that the location where you usually find the first matchstick (where the game first informs you that you're able to burn bodies) that that particular matchstick was now gone. I'm guessing you already knew, but just a fun fact for everyone else!
THANK YOU I’ve finally attempted akumu and managed to beat while watching this speedrun if it wasn’t for this my sanity would never survived this difficulty
Yo me lo estoy pasando en modo Akumu voy por el cap 10, miro de vez en cuando este video como guía, alguna que otra jugada me ah salido, pero a veces es desesperante, sobre todo el 6 no me dieron muchos problemas las ordas si no el perro estuve más de una hora con el. Tu lo haces ver todo muy fácil cuando en realidad es muy difícil, en mi opinión es un gran logro llegar a jugar de esa forma 👏👏
Merci jigsawkiller pour tes vidéos sur evil within 1 et 2 j'ai platiné le 2 il me reste plus que le 1 je suis au chapitre 14 tes vidéo m'aide vraiment beaucoup sans toi je n'aurai jamais eu tous les astuces et je m'aurai sûrement décourager ❤🎉😅
Comment tu as fait stp ce putin de chapitre 06 quand les ennemis sortent des fenetre un putin de cauchemard je tourne comme lui mais ca ne va pas au 2 eme endroit
Hey... Jigzaw_Killer. Just wanted to let you know that it is your Hardwork and Knowledge, with Tips and Strategies that inspired me to successfully combine NG Akumu + Speed Run + All Keys in a single playthrough (04:15:34). Proud moment... All because of You. Thank You for Everything! 🙏 Peace ☮️
Ok I gotta ask you this question real quick but have you gotten a REALLY rare stealth kill where you break the zombie's neck? I got it on my first playthrough and I never got it again.
To platinum this game I used a new game plus with my ammo n max out stats for the last trophy that was beat it under 5 hours n I did it in 4:36 on casual lol n smash my time on new game n akumu hats off
Also for those who played both 1 and 2 evil within you might notice that the symbols from "father" Theodore in 2 is everywhere in 1 too like I the photos in ch 6
