Alien Isolation - True Survivor - Hard Mode No Death Speedrun [One Shot Trophy] [4h20mins]

Recorded live @ / profile
This was done in a single sitting, no saving or reloading, no death on hard difficulty.
Certainly not optimal but considering this was all done in a single sitting I'm really happy with it! There's definitely room for improvement but you have to prioritize survivability over speed. Those damn humans were being a massive pain during the entire run, during individual chapter practice they rarely ever give me this much trouble. Shit happens, the pressure was really building up in the final chapters, this is a LONG game to run through without dying.

This type of run makes the game look like a movie, it´s incredible how immersive it can be. 5 out of 5 dude.

[@RedditNovelties]

Felipe Bobadilla what about 10/10?

[@KairosObj]

Most are like movies these days regardless.

[@RadicalChod]

Well, my personal take on what he meant was that most Speed Runs destroy any attempt at a cinematic experience, but this run actually added to it.

[@Romano2018]

speedruns aren't cinematic , the protagonist just happens to know every local the alien will pop up and also know how to avoid every encounter with enemies through the station NOPE

[@RadicalChod]

Er... that was sort of my point. I mean, I'd be pretty cheesed off if I went to watch an Alien film in the cinema and the sole character either died 13 minutes in, or it was a 10 hour epic of them bumbling around a station looking for keycards.

They don't give you shit in nightmare mode... I have like, a piece of tape and a leggo.

[@BackLaid]

Worth it tho!

[@Grouncontrol]

I hear ya- I'm playing through in nightmare mode right now- in the mission where you have to reactivate the transit control to get to the marshal bureau- after you re-power it back up and release the joe from the room where that human had him locked up- I had to improvise a way to destroy the joe with only 2 rounds of ammunition and no other way to stun the joe. I lured the joe to the area near where you get the torch, shot an explosive canister setting the joe on fire- sent my only other round into his head, got one whack with my wrench, managed to get away, and he eventually burnt to death. It took me almost an hour, and I don't know how many deaths before I finally got past him!

[@flinchfu]

Grouncontrol I need to reinstall it... I need to stop pussing out... Don't hide in a vent to eat some cereal, you'll be like "'Sup... Alien?... get it over with."

[@Grouncontrol]

ya, I'm still going through nightmare mode right now. I just got past the part, after you return from the Anesadora, and I'm still ok for the no kill achievement (unless indirectly allowing humans to die at the hands of the xeno or working joes counts!) and am unsure of the no death. I've been pausing and reloading prior to the autosave icon popping up during the death animations, but cant recall if I may have screwed that up at some point. Not too worried about the no death one tho, as I plan on doing another run after this one in easy mode to search out all the collectables. good luck in your no kill run!

[@Grouncontrol]

+Action Cat Psycho - I just finished my nightmare run, and I succeeded in getting the mercy or prudence achievement (no kill) but was unable to get the no death one. I'm going to try and get whatever achievements are left when I do my next run in easy mode. Going for all the collectibles I missed in my first 2 runs!

[@camelcase9225]

This game is a visual and atmospheric masterpiece.

[@ConsoleCleric]

3:51:30 is when you reach the point where the game goes all out to kill you. Game forces you to encounter the alien in dark areas, there's tons of vents in the ceiling, you go all the way to one end to pull a switch, which blows a fuse, so you are forced to go all the way back to activate a generator, then all the way back again. It's a very tough part and I noticed the subtle moves the player makes to stay alive. Awesome run.

[@swissones]

ConsoleCleric I hated that part. It was parts like that that made me too neurotic and paranoid to even play the damn game.

[@words_on_a_screen]

ConsoleCleric, yeah during my play through on Hard diff, I died a lot during that part getting through it was a fucking sigh of relief! Noisemakers are usually your friend for distraction but sometimes.. the Xeno could give a fuck! 🤣

[@curtislitchfield1378]

I find this to be the most tense part of the entire game, far more than the Hive. If you want to watch a really amazing playthrough of it online look up Max Headshot. It's a 2 parter, Mission 17 Dual mod. He does it with 2 aliens. It's nuts!

Fantastic run. Finishing it without saves was real ballsy

[@EllRiver]

its a no death run, saving is pointless because if he died, he would have to start the entire game over anyway.

[@ChubbsRN]

metallavery That's exactly why I think it's ballsy. The thought of having to start all over from the beginning in a game where you could die in one hit scares me

I love the audio design in this game; I've just been having this on in the background and the attention to detail in the audio is just amazing. At 3:40:50 for example, you can hear air whistling through a gap in the door on the player's right. There's no gameplay reason to do that, but it's there and it's localized where it ought to be. It's just damn impressive.

I remember ditching the game because I thought it was too 'boring' (only was at mission 2, found it lame that the alien didn't appear) but when it did.. boy, was I wrong. My heart was constantly racing and I got sweaty fingers a lot, goosebumps and even had nightmares of the alien for 2 months straight. Such a masterpiece of a game. I wish I could erase my memories of that game just to play it again without knowing what's coming for me. 10/10.

[@unibrowmonsterattack5527]

Damn, what a gorgeous game.

[@d0nKsTaH]

I saw a speed run here on youtube somewhere that had some interesting ideas you could use if you ever do another attempt... Early on, when you are with Axel, and you guys go and shut a generator off as a distraction... throw a flare to the right and ALL the humans will go check it out. run straight to the left.. Axel will follow instead of going in the vent. cuts the time down about 2 min or so.. Later as you escape the synthetics... another speed run showed a guy went straight for the ladder and then to the left... dunno how he got past the 3 people in there but he didnt even kill any of them. Ran straight for the elevator after climbing up.. I think that shaved off another 2 min... Then the compression cylinder one... you can turn off the electricity to save the robot.. for some reason that android helps you later in the game but I don't remember where. The button is near where u pick the cylinder up. Then when getting back to the tram after turning the transit back on... use your revolver and fire INTO the stairs after calling the tram... apparently, the men will NOT come down the stairs because you just fired their direction. so you can sit there and enter soon as the doors open. Cuts off about a 1min or so. I've got this game but cannot play it atm ... I need to upgrade my pc.. just been watching lots of different speed runs. :D I do this for Outlast also, helps give me ideas on how to improve play.

[@daylaylaysart_16]

d0nKsTaH thanks for the tip, I’m always trying to find new ways to play to make the game more smooth than the first time I played (I died so many times, each time I play less deaths)

[@JoshuaVvee]

Super duper entertaining run. I was actually kind of afraid of how clean it might be, but for such a new game it was both clean, but had the roughness of something yet fully developed. But I certainly think some of that roughness came from the nature of the game rather than just not getting it perfect yet. It was really heart-stopping to see those moments where you same so close to death, but then just narrowly avoided it. There were also a lot of moments and felt impromptu, because the situation just wasn't how you either remembered or changed suddenly. I look forward to see how it can be yet refined, but at the sametime really hope some of those close encounters aren't totally avoided. The run would, admittedly, be pretty boring if you were able to pretty much just flare and noisemaker your way through every Alien encounter. Those moments where you're ducking around while still trying to keep on pace are really what are gonna make runs of this game interesting.

[@JoeFenix]

Absolutely, you can learn to utilize the scripting of the game to your advantage but there's still a decent amount of unscripted encounters that can happen and those certainly keep you on your toes. Doing a run like this on Nightmare would be a bit crazy, part of me wants to attempt it but I don't know if it's realistic. Sure would be fun to try though! It is a bit of a shame how many of the encounters can be "broken down" to repeatable patterns and I'm hoping if this team gets the chance to create a sequel that this is one thing they will improve. The game is thrilling when things don't go as planned! Anyways, Glad you enjoyed the run and thanks for watching :)

[@snap_drama346]

JoeFenix that's the thing the developers have to make the game playable or ppl will rage and won't enjoy it. I reccomed the evil within its very difficult just cause the game ain't fair with some enemies but even the last boss ain't the hardest part of that game cause it has to be playable well I did it on normal though but give that game a try

[@kasraabdiplat]

JoeFenix Hi,i havent finished the game. What was that game over at the end??? Is it apart of the game or you died??? Pls answer

[@snap_drama346]

kasraabdiplat ah finish the game it's worth it

[@ShooberTimber]

+Jace Clark It's considered unrealistic due to the game conditions presented by the difficulty setting. Your motion tracker becomes almost useless(the screen becomes covered with static/objective pointer acts like a compass in the Bermuda Triangle), no longer able to use maps, extremely scarce amount of item pickups, most attacks will now one-shot you (yes, that includes survivors shooting at you), all enemies become hostile sooner with the addition of increased senses AND harder to dispatch. HUD display no longer visible. Finally, the Alien itself becomes extremely irritating to circumvent. I.E., it no longer makes noise while walking through an area, becomes capable of looking under desks/checks lockers more frequently; drops out of vents more often, harder to repel using the flamethrower, etc. Basically, there is little to no room for mistakes in NM mode. You fuck up even just once and your done. Hence why it's considered unrealistic to attempt a one-shot, no deaths run on NM mode.

It's likely that the alien learned something about your movements and behaviour early game and now knows how to anticipate your movements later on.

[@leomorse7605]

I thought the loading screens were horrendously long, but then I play the game on PC installed on an SSD......loading times are a few seconds

[@orchidfoxy]

+Leo Morse I saw someone play on a PC and his loading screens were long lol

[@angieloyless2111]

It took me 9 months on easy mode. Im such a weakling

[@BreakneckWalrus]

1:54:30 till 1:57:00 was insane. How much did you freak at 1:56:39? Haha. Great run, good job!

[@JoeFenix]

Yeah that part was intense, I meant to activate the service android but picked the other option by accident. Of course Big Al decided to show up at the worst possible time hah! I completely forgot about the Working Joe, I thought I was dead for sure when I hit him with the wrench. That was definitely exciting :)

[@on2ivi77]

That was VERY INTENSE!!!

[@fluttershystayshigh4202]

this is damn impressive! hard to believe its a playthrough from over two years ago, i still can't get anywhere on this game even after all these years and that's on normal difficulty.

[@deaconmontrelljackson1986]

Four hrs. And still alive its like a live movie thank you for this the alien thought she had you.

[@joelsalasperez6118]

Muchas gracias, saludos desde México, me ha servido la guia (saludos!)

[@andrewpotapenkoff7723]

Alien's eggs disposition is wrong overall. Alien queen wouldn't be able to visit such narrow places.

[@TheFranny117]

the Xenomorph drones move the eggs to the desired locations.

[@AlexStasXXXParanoid]

Where is the queen though? Maybe the eggs were brought into the station by someone or the alien itself

[@TheFranny117]

Henry.M Stas Good point maybe Marlow's ship or it could be similar to alien 1 where we don't see a queen to make it more mysterious in the game? I'm not sure myself.

[@Worldwidegam3r]

They turn people into eggs.

[@AlexStasXXXParanoid]

that wouldnt really make sense lore wise

[@carlitosm2819]

This game is so well made, even watching it is stressful, uggh, so many memories but I’ll never play it again. Well done on the speed run.

[@dontcryson69]

This was pretty cool to watch, funny how it has taken me like 10 hours of game time to get to the nest when you done it in under 3, on hard difficulty too x) subbed.

[@MartinAleksanderAksnes]

The Alien grabs me from a vent in the roof, I instantly put pause when I saw him face to face and reload last save (I dont remember If I see the load icon), count as a dead? :/ thanks, was in mission 6.

[@realMrVent]

That would certainly count as a death, since there is no way to escape the animation.

[@ManEatingButt]

Incredible job!

[@VIVIAN81]

This was amazing to watch man! Despite new developments like psychorunning, your run is more entertaining because of the fewer glitches

[@anderslang]

Very well done, that must have been a scary experience.

[@averyegregiousdinosuar9196]

I'm about to have a lot of free time on my hands and I might do this, any words of inspiration before my quest?

[@JoeFenix]

Never be Game Over

[@Mycenaea]

What is actually the difference between hard mode and the other modes? Easier for the alien to detect you, less places to hide or what?

[@cacildeasa]

Very keen senses do the Xenomorph and more damage taken from the other threats. Also less material and ammo found in-game. Places to hide keeps the same, but on hard when you hide under something you must not be able to see from the waist up of the xenomorph or he will find you. And... in my own experience, in hard, running is literally not an option.

[@Jaryd7]

***** Also on harder difficulties the AI learns faster about your habbits. For example you always tend to hide in the closets, it will start checking them out much faster then on easy.

[@cacildeasa]

JarydAlderis Yes, I forgot that. He also stay more time off the vents looking for you. Pretty annoying.

[@thefalloutscrolls9124]

Threats do more damage. Less loot. More hiding spots. More random events

[@M3dicayne]

It's funny. The devs once said it was difficult to make the alien AI "stupid" again... It was too good to be able to compete against (the AI basically always knows where you are of course...). They finally developed a second AI confusing the first one; changing its perception etc... On harder difficulties that AI "simply" gets less influence... But even on nightmare difficulty, that AI still has to work. And changing damage multipliers is really easy though.

[@traveler68646]

Wow. Watching you breeze through parts that I really struggled at a lower difficulty :O

[@spookyrobbie]

Absolutely amazing run, bro. Obviously could have some room for very minor improvement, but overall solid run.

[@SR71ABCD]

I did it on Easy difficulty and I was close to death when I was grabbed by the Alien as I paused the game and load up my checkpoint and still I got it. So much for a True Survivor....

[@snap_drama346]

Did u do it on normal being doing easy I dislike it when ppl pick easy without knowing what normal is like

[@SR71ABCD]

well I had to know the whole game before I play it again on hard.

[@snap_drama346]

SR71ABCD oh u would play it on easy first time around and then go straight to hard.. wow

[@SR71ABCD]

yep like my folks say to know the game weel start from the easiest to the hardest that's how true gamers start I I'd played the game on nightmare I have no idea how to play it.

[@snap_drama346]

SR71ABCD it makes no sense to me if u play on easy you learn less than u would on normal as Ai behaviour will be different.

[@poetsofthetomorrow]

2:43:08 Even I saw something I didnt know!

[@mendibiferushah2919]

amazing gameplay dude! great job

[@torkdork69]

Real deal head hunter. You operate like Recon, Spitznaz, Seal Teams 1-10, Meth induced S.S. Of the 3rd Riech, and Richard Simmons all wrapped up into one. Koodoes to being such a finely Honed Machine.

[@nou6117]

honestly thank you- if it were not for this video i would’ve just stayed in the closet the whole game

[@tinchotincho9231]

One of my two favourite games of all time, the other one would be The Last of Us, awesome speedrun by the way.

[@qanh96]

Hard, no save and no death. Mate you got yourself a new sub. Very welldone

[@TristypoozOA]

Did it in 2 days or so with breaks obviously. Couldn't have done it without you sir. I'm actually going to save one shot and mop up the rest of the achievements on novice. Thanks for you help

[@StewHeisenberg]

4:03:43 For some odd reason, it was really entertaining seeing you spam your finger on the thing Jesus lmfao

[@Fl4v_]

Just completed last night. It is such a fun game to play, although you'll shit your self before you get used to it. Impressive video, well done. I'll try to do a similar thing, just so I can get the Platinum Trophy ahaha :)

[@Encryptid1upGaming]

+Flavius Stroe same! The only trophy i have left is the One Shot trophy for not dying and i have a shiny, very much well earned, Platinum!

[@taneev271]

Basically how Ripley actually would have been if she was not being played by us

[@J23B]

completed the game last night on hard. It's really underated to be honest. This speed run is crazy !!!
