Theoretical GoldenEye Record Finally Achieved After 20 Years! 

E So inspirational

I love the idea of your podcast but I REALLY hope that doesn't mean you'll slowly stop making these videos because I love your videos and I'd be super depressed if they ever go away.

you may cover the news about mario karts 32/32

@@SUPERFunStick No way, if anything I'll be making more videos in the future.

Your content is awesome, so of course I subbed to your new channel.

I do that every weekend, doesn’t everybody? What’s the problem?

It's rocket science

That IS simple! What you've never reprogrammed a shuttle before? All you gotta do is enter the correct programming!! ^o^

Karl’s been spending too much time on skillshare, rocket science is fairly simple to him now

You all have phones dont you?

If my favorite getting over it speedrunner is commenting on my favorite goldeneye speedrunner, I wonder if msushi will show up and make this perfect

Haha speedrunner go brrrrrr

Omg the legendary getting over it speedrunner is here

And then Hefest got this run

omg its the mountain climbing guy!

And doing secret agent for the speed run cheat. Such a hard level

I remember it being the only level in the game I could _only_ play on agent.

@@MaximumSpice I have so many different thoughts and ideas about *different* topics that have nothing to do with this video. Wanna hear some? :) Hahahaha no no you are a friend, friendship is happy and happening. 😃

Underrated comment

@@szurmatpl makes no sense to say that when the comment is 3 hours old

"Fuck it, I'll do it myself" is the most powerful force to exist.

@@TheTuttle99 underrated has basically been reduced to meaning "good" when used online. unfortunate but a consistent trend when it comes to online vernacular

Idk why almost 500 people upvoted this comment. We all know what speedrunners do, that's why we're here....

Just don't get hit and you won't need the armor easy. I'd assume its because in speedrunning a turnback is hard to think about because it's not as fast as just straight so you don't test many of them

It's like someone replayed Portal and was like "maybe that can work here"

It's funny to me too. I feel like maybe if they weren't nerds and played Madden back in the day they'd have figured this out lol

@@Zalied Yup, in general you always try to be moving forward, including getting back boosts from guards or your own grenades. It feels so counterintuitive to turn around.

@@NolePTR Splitgate?

The Australian language*

Honestly “on (insert date) he achieved *this...*” is also a good contender.

@@NotsoseriousNick 😁👍 Fair call 😎

@@BraxtonMeyer auto-correct spelling error corrected. Well spotted 😁

Or "But then, this happened"

Imagine finally tieing for best and then getting beaten

@@Zalied that's the game baby. It'd why they do it.

@@Zalied Second is still a pretty fat achievement.

@@wareforcoin5780 it's not even getting second! it's "i held this world record for [x time], and am now currently second cuz some absolute mad lad managed to grind even longer to beat me"

(/s stands for "serious", because this is a very serious comment)

@@criszis (and while we're here /srs stands for *s* a *r* ca *s* tic)

He is not a minecraft youtuber btw, he is more of a speedrunning channel.

@@want-diversecontent3887 It was bloody obvious sarcasm. The only reason why he would put a warning is it he meant: *S* E *R* IOU *S*

@@temper1287 Did you see that? That was the joke flying over your head

Gross

@@JonnyAppleWeed wtf?

@@catsandcats3540 oh, sorry. I didn't think people thought they were actual "legends." Carry on, you absolute legend.

@@catsandcats3540 sup legend

@@JonnyAppleWeedmaybe I'm misreading - they're saying it's going to be a good show because it's a catch phrase of a RU-vidr who makes shows that they enjoy? Regardless of how absolute a legend the viewer is?

Truly remarkable

My friends, it just keeps happening

Music is FTL ost btw

@@Bratjuuc are you sure? I thought it was the song from Chrono trigger

@@bongosmcdongos4190 well, maybe not all of them, but atleast the song at 8:20 is. Using FTL ost (among other) is a recurring thing Karl does in his videos.

I second that. This is the beauty of his videos, he breaks it down so thoroughly that even someone who never played that game, heck, probably even people who never played any game, can understand and enjoy what makes this record so great.

I hope that you'll be alright my friend, it will always get better you absolute legend 😁

Wishing the best for you, you absolute legend

Do you have a friend you can go do something with? Doing something you like with someone you like can be incredibly rehabilitative

Good luck with whatever it is man. You've got it, no problem.

You're a legend, Juka!

Hindsight is always 20/20. Most likely that they were focused on optimizing the old strats first.

From my understanding, there's two basic reasons. First off, if you have the HP to spend getting shot by an enemy behind you speeds you up in Goldeneye. So in a lower-difficulty speedrun having the turret shoot you as you run down the vent improves your time, and thinking about how to not get shot by it is reserved for the apex speedrun category. The second reason is that they'd already demonstrated a difficult strategy that would allow them to destroy the turret without even slowing down, so doubling back would be a guaranteed time loss over a success using the harder strategy when the point of the thing is already to avoid a slightly longer time loss from the easiest strategy of grabbing the armor.

@@conberate Interesting! Thanks for the background! :)

because these speedrunners have never played pyro vs sentry

Fred's comment pretty much covers it, but I might as well add another small detail as to why this concept may have taken so long to be discovered by runners: To put it simply, every single turret across the entire rest of the game is positioned in a location that explicitly prevents the player from executing this specific type of maneuver. The fact that this single one can be is very likely an oversight on the part of the dev team, who were probably well aware of this potential weakness because in every other case where tanking damage for speed boosts _isn't_ optimal, it's because the thing is either at the far end of a corridor or in an open space too large for the player to cross directly (and in those cases they're pretty much always backed up by regular enemies as well. Just look at the final room here as an example, albeit an extreme one compared to some of the regular levels) There's a good chunk of them and they're all pretty much like that to some extent or another, so it stands to reason that the idea of "If I can't tank it I have to shoot it" is deeply ingrained in the minds of many people who played this game in general, let alone speedrunners.

reccomend SummoningSalt for more like this!

I had a friend that says "ez" whenever he wins at any video game, even if that "ez" means "barely made it after few dozens of sweaty attempts "

Karl's one of the greatest Goldeneye players ever. His version of casual playthrough on this game is very warped lmao. But that's normal for people who get really good at a video game. They forget how good they really are and their perspective on the skill base for the average player changes.

Viewers are absolute legends, obviously.

Well, if you are really good at the game, know where all the enemies are and all of that nonsense, that is certainly doable. Karl didn't mean by "casual" "casual gamers" or a very fun and relaxed thing, but more like casual as in a regular playtrough.

"Casual" aka GameShark

ok

How do u have so many subs

Better that he waits for good content than pump videos out just because I loved that episode

DOOOOOOOOOOOMmm

Hey you here ? :D thats cool

its common, me and the boys still play doom
