Can You 100% LEGO: Indiana Jones WITHOUT FREEPLAY?

Freeplay is a quintessential part of any LEGO Video Game. From LEGO Star Wars to LEGO Batman, and everything in between. But, what happens when we choose to NOT use it, and only go off of what we're able to get in story mode? How far can we push it? A combination of speedrunning, creativity, and a whole lot of pain

My deepest apologies, I do not have any intentions of sounding like a hater, I got kind of blasted for this last time I made a comment like this, but personally, I'm not really a fan of these kinds of challenges or challenges like speed runs or anything like that. Personally, I like to play the games as is and the way the developers intended for me to play them. Plus, I'm not skilled enough for a speed run. Personally, I just like to sit back and chill and play the game without having to worry about how fast to beat a level or exploiting the game. But who am I to dictate what people do with their games. By all means, I'm glad you and many others enjoy this stuff. It's just not for me. Hope you have a good rest of your day.

[@mikenobi]

​​@@alexslusher16I get what you're saying, I actually like to play free play and the way developers want us to. But his channels are all about challenges, and some people like this kind of content. I really like people's commentary on these games. And there is no need to apologize about not liking his content, there are plenty of fish in the sea.

Mine was Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 for the ps3. I see some people saying this was one of their early games in general which isn't the case for me. My earliest game that I can remember was either Kingdom Hearts 1 (for Ps2), Spongebob Movie Game (for og Xbox), or it was some Disney brand game for the V-Smile (if you know what that is you're obviously in your 20s like me if not a parent of someone in their 20s)

[@Pover57th]

I started with Lego Batman lmao, good memories of beating it with my dad over and over again

[@duscarasheddinn8033]

My first Lego video game was Lego Star Wars Complete Saga... as a *physical* PC version. The PC version was apparently released years after the mostly identical home console versions (the copyright dates in-game say it was 2009, but an online source claims it took until 2010), but I'm pretty sure I picked it up in 2011. I could be mistaken, of course.

I'm glad someone could find that sheet useful! I remember running this game co-op with Hotrodzod. It brings back good memories! We got the first sub 1:20 in Any% without lag strats as well. Good times. I haven't been in the Lego community for a bit now but you are the new face for this generation of potential players, and you are doing great work as well! Keep it up. LIJ1 still goated fr

[@bd1p]

Means a lot man 🙏

[@C0mmanderZer0]

This video actually helped explain something for me. The last time I did my personal playthrough of this game I accidentally did a minikit duplication trick without knowing it was a thing and got eleven minikits in a level, so just for explaining it alone I'm glad I watched this video, of course the rest of the video was great as well.

[@Dak36799]

I did the same lol

[@stoopidapples1596]

It's pretty dangerous I think, I've had games where my game becomes uncompleteable because part of the game might think I have enough minikits but another part might not.

I had always known for a fact that the “Fast Dig” parcel was the only parcel in the game you can collect in story mode without using any cheat codes! You unlock Han Solo as the mystery character when you find all five hidden Star Wars characters in random level locations!

I havent played Lego Indy in years, and only 2 years ago did I see the actual films that inspired this game. Honestly with the diffrences in game and in the movie, i may have to replay it to see if Ill enjoy it just as much as I did when I was younger. This video (as well as a few others) have revived my Lego Indy memories

14:48 I think I did that skip accidentally when I was a kid playing the Wii version of this game, if not that one specifically than one like it. Because that box bouncing to the platform like that looks super, SUPER familiar.

[@amyhughes2149]

I 100% also did that as a kid, thinking it was the intended way to do it

[@ToastGreeting]

Great video, I learned a lot of new stuff on one of my favourite lego games. I love Indiana Jones he is so cool. I knew you couldn't 100% LIJ without freeplay but I wanted to see how far you could get. I always loved how many artifacts you could obtain in story mode without any phasing through walls, adding more to that by doing that is cool too. in terms of gameplay and features LB2 is better but this game and LIJ2 will always be special in my heart as I have a great burning passion towards Indiana Jones

[@Inkthirsty]

i've always been curious about this type of stuff. i wasn't sure since some minikits are stuck behind triggers that require certain characters

[@dankercastle207]

I once got 12/10 mini kits in the Mine Car Chase level

[@westube3493]

For City of Danger: The minikit behind the glass can be blown up with the bazooka you get later in the level. You can open the enemy door in the first section with a hat you get later in the level. For Pursuing the Ark: You can jump on the cliff at the beginning of that area and get around the gate. You can kill the soldiers who attack you in the plane section, steal their pistol, and complete the target minikit. For Opening the Ark: You can get 9/10 minikits here. For The Hunt for Sir Richard: I feel like it should be possible to clip into the room with the mopeds but I have never tried it. For Motorcycle Escape: I never figured out how to get the boat minikit without a high jumper. For Trouble in the Sky: I might be misremembering, but I think the blimp guards can throw grenades, so they might be able to break the glass box around the minikit. For Temple of the Grail: I feel like one day a clip will be found to bypass the generator. For Free the Slaves: It might be possible to bring TNT from later in the level to break open the parcel cage. For Battle on the Bridge: I agree that you should be able to clip up the wall to reach that final minikit. For Shanghai Showdown: My max for this level was 5 glitchless with no parcel.

[@ap30112002]

Just replayed this recently, and I found out that they hid the cheat code for the second parcel in the Into the Mountains intro cutscene

[@colinroberts2060]

This was my third Lego Game, after Lego Star Wars II and "Bionicle Heroes". I'm not entirely sure how long it took me to find certain minikits/artifacts even in Free Play mode, but I do remember that the one from "Escape the Mines"-which is a "Pankot Diamond" was the last one I completed. Of note, the "Ancient City" bonus level is unlocked by completing three of the artifacts, "Young Indy" is unlocked by completing nine of them, and "Warehouse" is unlocked when all eighteen artifacts are completed. As such, I did not fully 100% this game until April 11 of 2009, though part of why it took so long was because I was also playing the original Lego Batman at that time. Even then, that game I got really close to finishing, but never got past 99.2%. I was missing just two minikits-with one being from a "Hero level" in the second episode, and one being from a "Villain level" in the third episode.

I remember years ago me and a friend were playing this on the Wii and somehow did the stud glitch.

We had no idea what caused it, or that games could have glitches so we never knew why is happened.

[@dordbird]

I have a pointer for future videos, I would change up the music more, the song you picked from the beginning to about the transition into last crusade got me to actually skip until I heard something else. High pitched synth at low volume on a loop is grating after a while. Good job on the run tho!!

[@mothman3484]

This game was my childhood

[@JamesTDG]

It would be interesting to see you try and discover some tech for the portable console releases of the games. I got Lego Star Wars 2, Lego Batman, and Lego Indy all on PSP, and it would be nice to find that movement tech that I have been missing to get that 100%, since my copies have some bugs in the level design, a few which require me to find some noclip tech.
