Can you beat Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga without shooting?

[@DeanTheOneAndOnly]

I just want to clarify that Wicket and the catapult in level 6-4 both still count as shooting even though I defined it as a beam of plasma.

[@Darth_B]

Ok

[@bruce4139]

I litterally came to comment this lol

[@GayAnnabeth]

honestly, hand this vid to lego speedrunners they'll prob be all "hold my beer" then get to single digits in a week

[@ocularzombie6679]

you said a bolt of PLASMA at the beginning by the way. Had you used Wicket in 6-4, you could've technically fired less shots

[@thegooddoctor69420]

That’s exactly what it thought lol

[@dreamwanderer5791]

I was genuinely expecting Force Grapple and Self Destruct for a lot of these, but not like I'm complaining. New fun and unique Lego challenge runs are always appreciated, and this is shocking quality for subs in just the 60's. Absolutely looking forward to more. Potential video idea: how *low* of a percentage can you beat the full story at? Essentially trying to avoid as many pickups and unlocks as possible.

[@DeanTheOneAndOnly]

Love the feedback! I'd like to try that idea at somepoint!

[@viola4344]

Speedrunner here. You can do this challenge with a lot fewer shots: You can skip a lot of these with Deflect Bolts, which requires 0 shots to get. You can skip others with Self Destruct, which requires 0 shots to get. In vehicle levels, you can destroy enemies with Vehicle Smart Bomb, which requires 0 shots to get. You can one-shot several enemies at once using EBB (Exploding Blaster Bolts), which can also be collected with 0 shots. Enemies with multiple health can be defeated with fewer shots if you have Super Blasters, which requires 0 shots to get. In 2-3, you can skip shooting the target with Bucketless. In 3-3, you can jump near the final bomb from below after forcing it. In 4-1, EBB can blow up the grey thing with on shot. You can skip the gate in 4-13 with a speeder clip. When chasing imperial spy, you can enter the door before it closes by taking a specific route. In 4-5, you don't need to destroy the barrel. In 5-2, you don't need the snowmobile. Push C-3PO up with a box. In 5-3, you don't need to shoot the asteroids if you have Infinite Torpedoes. In 5-3, asteroids have multiple health, so if you are doing it without extras, the tally should be higher for the second scene and fourth scenes. In 5-4, you can skip the targets in the third scene by going out of bounds. In 5-6, Zacc is not teleporting. The door clipped him through the wall, and maneuvered to be beneath the floor. In 5-6, you do not need C-3PO. You can use the box to clip out of bounds. In 6-2 you can blow up the bars in one blaster shot with EBB. In 6-4, you can do the entire first room with R2-D2 by flying off the guard rails. In 6-4, you can diveroll off of the hill with Han to skip building the turnstile. In 6-5, you don't need the catapult or the walker. Do a Drop-In Warp to get out of bounds, go below the stage, and then hit the loading zone from below. In 6-5, in the bunker, you can clip out of bounds using the first door to skip opening the other two doors, as well as the puzzles. In total, I think you could do this with only about 20 shots. The direction that Deflect Bolts deflects bolts in is random, so it would be super annoying. Even without extras, you still get DB from power-ups, but then it would be even more annoying since you only get 20 seconds.

[@charliereed7388]

thats epic. kinda want to see someone do it now though tbf

[@colinothebambino]

You know bro ain't messing when he calls the Imperial Spy by his full government name

[@auditect950]

How many can be avoided with Extras? Like self-destructing droids blowing up targets, or exploding blaster bolts lessening the number of required shots.

[@DeanTheOneAndOnly]

That's a good question. I should try that.

[@auditect950]

@@DeanTheOneAndOnly Enjoy.

[@spyrothedragon12234]

​@@DeanTheOneAndOnlyyou know what I wonder how much it will take on Freeplay does Jedi and sith can destroy things that you need to do with a blaster?

[@jackspaggato5825]

Actually for 1:3 you can bait droids into hitting the targets for you, which would bring the total down by 5

[@veryblocky]

I thought he tried and showed that it didn’t work when the enemies shot them?

[@cutieelise]

Episode 1 level 5 honestly has got to be one of my LEAST favorite levels. It’s so long and boring.

[@venom-123]

Whats level 5

[@LizardBoyYTP]

(idea) You should try this challenge but with free-play, glitchs, and extras. also Oh my goodness i just noticed your subscriber count this is high quality content!

[@DeanTheOneAndOnly]

Thanks for the kind words! Free play wpuld be pretty cool.

[@ManaMan_1405]

If you turn on the Explosive Blaster Bolts Red Brick, any blaster bolts you reflect inheret the Explosive Blaster Bolts effect. Technically this means that reflected blaster bolts count as being shot by the player and not by the npc.

[@ocularzombie6679]

9:31 instructions unclear, I'm wasted af

[@Dwarfshark2000]

I love it. Pretty good video. Thank you for filling the void that is my day with an entertaining, funny, and fun video.

[@DeanTheOneAndOnly]

Thanks for the kind words!

[@LewisJamieson6]

Great vid mate! Genuinely, I see this blowing up 👀

[@angiehunt6478]

Nice. Now, what if you did the opposite? Because obviously using lightsabers is the worst, so what if you tried to see how many times you are required to swing a saber

[@DeanTheOneAndOnly]

That's a good idea!

[@memebrain2177]

Basically the hold your fire challenge

[@icecreamsocial123]

Omg your laugh is so snuggly wuggly cute boy I'm literally shaking

[@quinnapple3232]

So civilized Also in 2-2 one shot can be avoided by using the crates instead of the car thing to get c3po over the ledge

[@auditect950]

3:47 I remember making that jump as a kid, but in the original LSW.

[@SamuelTheAdept]

5:21 caught me off guard

[@Nullkia]

A lot of tech used in the any% route can be used here to skip shots. EBB (from 2-5) can 1hit barrel in 4-1. 4-5 barrel can be skipped with trashskip. I think the "door controls" can also be skipped, but the tech isnt used in runs. 5-2 I forget the route, but it sees a lot of EBB usage. 5-3 is done with IT, so asteroid shots are 0. 5-5 (CCT) opposing EBB can be used to get through the door. 5-5 box is not required, boxclip chewie/r2 through the wall removing 2 shots. 6-2 I think ebb is used? think it removes 4? I forget 6-4 route, but EBB will help. 6-1 opening, in theory torpedo duping removes shots there too.

[@ZacMuffin]

Cool video! :)

[@ZednulGAMEZ]

Great video, good job on reaching past 100 subs!

[@jakethecarsandreactorvideo9409]

6:27 if you do this section on drop in drop out co-op you can skip this fight

[@hisuii]

There's a lot of overlap here between this and the "least buttons" run in terms of optimization. Immediately, the first 8 shots can be skipped by using the Deflect Bolts and Explosive Blaster Bolts extras. The next 3 after Zam can be avoided with some skillful backflip triple jumps. I don't have the least button presses run memorized so there's probably a lot more throughout the whole video. Most of the shots you need to get around the levels can probably be avoided by going the least button presses route.

[@DeanTheOneAndOnly]

I wanted to do a basic run without extras. I think I'll do a revised version to see how far I can whittle down the shots counter.

[@TTV-jesuiscool]

great vid would love to see more like it

[@TTV-jesuiscool]

also you should do the same thing but on other lego games like the force awakens, 3 the clone wars and the skywalker saga

[@magnush4895]

Great video! Keep up the good work!

[@GayAnnabeth]

you can skip the atst in 4-3 by using the speeder to clip out of bounds

[@GayAnnabeth]

you can make 5-1 significantly easier using vehicle smart bomb, the red brick from 3-1

[@GayAnnabeth]

actually, in 4-1, you can wreck the bombs with one shot using exploding blaster bolts

[@Raven_Redacted]

At 1:06 you can use explosive bolts to cut the shots down to 2. Or in parts you have a r2 unit, use self destruct

[@glerbus9561]

Star Wars but every is civilized.

[@HyperJohnua]

oh my god, a player that actually knows about the unblockable saber slash tech

[@TylerGamer-ut8st]

No using the force in lego star wars the skywalker saga

[@ace.of.skulls]

I have another idea for you: What’s the minimum amount of times you have to use a lightsaber?

[@GayAnnabeth]

I'd reccomend doing 5-3 after 6-6, since 6-6 has infinite torpedoes red brick

[@jakethecarsandreactorvideo9409]

I would like to see you do a video of how many objects are you required to build to beat Lego Star Wars the complete saga

[@DeanTheOneAndOnly]

I thought of that idea, but I wasn't sure which Lego game to do it with.

[@jakethecarsandreactorvideo9409]

@@DeanTheOneAndOnlyI only tackled a little bit of that question with this game

[@yotuba9493]

Nice video mate glad you popped up in my feed

[@nomnomfoodthief]

if you use self destruct the droids explode

[@eliferrisjones4634]

Using speed running techniques I think you can get a ton less

[@Walid-mk4jo]

6:03 you didn't need to shoot those you can still do everything normally in the cantina without having to bring the droids in

[@KingSethXXIV]

How about a free play run? Might be more boring, since you can use lightsaber people for most of the levels, but vehicle levels and 1-3 still require some shots

[@GayAnnabeth]

I think 1-3 might be possible! you just need to resort to underhanded tactics

[@spamtonspamton3403]

4:02 why didn’t you just jump near the bomb again? Could’ve saved you a shot 9:45 you can actually push C-3PO using the mound of snow to your left

[@legomyeggo77]

On level 3-4 you had 34 shots

[@TheIncredibleBiddison]

Correction: You can save 1 shot in 5-2, 2 shots in 5-6, And 15 shots in 6-4. 9:46 12:07 12:10 13:52 14:16 14:49 14:56

[@TheIncredibleBiddison]

I just realized that you can save 2 more shots in 6-4! 14:18

[@jimmybean9638]

Great video I think you might be able to save some shots in 2 - 3 by using Anakin to jump up onto where you shoot the targets and get to the higher section where a Minikit is and if you picked up the red brick in 2 - 5 for exploding blaster bolts you could have saved a lot of shots on every object that took multiple shots. In conclusion amazing video.

[@DeanTheOneAndOnly]

Thanks for the feedback. I decided, for this challenge, to go through the story as normal. Doing jt again with extras would be pretty fun!

[@solitudeguard8478]

Will you do a free play+extras version of this challenge? I know that explosive bolts alone can cut down the number of shots.

[@DeanTheOneAndOnly]

That's a pretty popular suggestion. I'll make it a point to attempt it sometime!

[@LewisJamieson6]

in the endor level does wicket's slingshot count as shooting? you said in the beginning during the rules that a single beam of plasma being released from a weapon is one shot, but wicket's slingshot isn't a plasma weapon, just a question!

[@DeanTheOneAndOnly]

Yes, it would have counted, but I used Han the whole level anyway.

[@Jediwarlock]

Great vid! Looking forward to your future stuff. I wanted to echo the ideas of others and suggest a repeat but with free play/Extras to see how low the count can go! :D

[@DeanTheOneAndOnly]

Thanks for the kind words! That idea seems to be pretty popular.

[@christopherbottger]

Wouldn't it be possible to skip some of theese with the self destruct extra? Infinite torpedoes too but that is less interesting.

[@DeanTheOneAndOnly]

Probably. I decided to do no extras for this run, but others have suggested to use red bricks.

[@JohnnyCosinus]

now do it on free play

[@theneurodivergent-fu5bu]

Could you do Lego Indiana jones with not shooting?

[@caidenhanson4440]

Wait why did the catapult count ?? It didn’t shoot plasma ?

[@DeanTheOneAndOnly]

I used a beam of plasma as a general definition because that's what the majority of the characters fall under. I think the catapult should still count because I'm shooting a projectile.

[@jakethecarsandreactorvideo9409]

Can you try this same challenge but in free play?
