[FWR] Returnal speedrun in

[@kjames460]

Took me 6 weeks to beat this game. Amazing run.

[@NikHem343]

god I love this game with a passion. Cannot wait for Housemarque‘s next title

[@kadoman0]

I would love to have something just like this, I miss the dreadbound already

[@sameerhussain444]

​@@kadoman0same here. I m completely fine with next title being similar. It's like no other.

[@alexanderdigkas7429]

Any idea what would be their next game?

[@NikHem343]

@@alexanderdigkas7429 Not at all, but it's confirmed that it's not gonna be a sequel.

[@Franku_4]

Excellent run, this is even better than what the devs reacted to.

[@ultradevon04]

Thank you for this, i'm several years late to the party but have decided that I'm not putting myself through hell trying to beat this game. I'll just enjoy watching this instead and save myself hours of suffering :)

[@Sassannid]

The beauty in the game is those hours of hell and suffering, which makes it more rewarding in the end :)

[@1738-l1j]

It aint even hard its pretty easy it just looks intimidating

[@aaronroach3603]

I just started this game, and watching this speed run made me realize I don't stand a chance.

[@GTS-Olivier]

I played Returnal at launch. Couldn’t stand it, it was too hard. Years later I gave it another shot and I absolutely love it. Best PS5 exclusive in my opinion. The controls are so tight it’s unreal.

[@TheCuratorWillBQuytOperational]

EXACTLY my story 😂 I even ended up making it through the Derelict Citadel without dying and beating Nemesis without dying! Fantastic game!!

[@DANIELMARTINEZ-ck7mc]

Also best haptic vibration in PS5

[@hunterm1113]

Love how Selene is obsessing over the White Shadow and the tower and losing her mind screaming at ghosts. Ma'am you've been on this planet for 16 minutes.

[@TheBlackKakashi]

0:49 disrespected tf out of Selene’s body 😂

[@Markiboy11]

How he defeated phrike made me feel so stupid😂

[@TheCuratorWillBQuytOperational]

I can't figure out how he managed to hold Phrike in place that!!!!

[@Susher821]

did anyone tried this out in 2024? Maybe they patched it and this tactic is not possible anymore (Phrike)

[@ChickenSoupLotion]

Love that you're still playing this amazing game. Nice work.

[@rachnamalhotra5437]

It took me 9 hours to reach the nine minute mark 😂😂😂

[@johnny-mnemonic13]

The only thing I hate about speedruns is that make everyone else stupid at how we suffered.

[@Adnan-si9wq]

one of the best speedruns I've ever seen

[@joseph050394]

When you are actually the final boss 😸

[@drewandcharlie7583]

What i dont like about this game is that after a dozen or so runs i realized that 90% of the time you are better off to just go past enemies. Like you would in a speedrun. Thats not why i play games. That said, this is pretty amazing.

[@three_seashells]

I have only got 2/3 hours so far, but is this true? Don't you need the adrenaline stacks and currency drops

[@izenbice]

​@@three_seashells yo im also 2/3 hours in, i've heard you do actually want to kill all the enemies for stam / items. Is that the case?

[@three_seashells]

@@izenbice hi, I actually no-lifed this game and completed act 2 now. I would say it's a case of choosing your battles at the start of the run, but definitely try and kill as many as you are capable of handling to get the obolites and drops. don't inspect the dead scouts unless you're ready for a really hard fight. also, some 'treasure rooms' you teleport to can actually randomly spawn a mini-boss & fuck you up 🥲

[@izenbice]

@@three_seashells bet, thanks for the reply. Bro I inspected the scout and about shit myself, was not expecting a boss lmao. I beat the first boss last night on the 3rd try (like 5 hours in) and just got to the mars biome. I'm pretty trash at video games like this but I'm like determined to beat it ya know. Feels like you get better and better each run.

[@jaleeldavidson5660]

@@izenbice i also wanna reply to this, nice to know peeps are still playing this game lol. So i just beat act 2 a few mins ago. Wanna say that fighting all enemies does indeed have its perks, but it’s not completely necessary. This game is great because pretty much everything in it is all about risk. Me personally? I don’t run from fights so I blast everything in sight 😂

[@DeividSantos12]

This game looks phenomenal!

[@marelaiana]

Mate you are a legend 😮

[@moraru_dumitru_dumitru]

Looks like it is a developer walkthough... Pretty nice...

[@AnimaxRules]

I Hope Metroid Prime 4 looks at least this good.

[@zedzilla]

It won't....

[@ebenezerfalade6483]

This should be 20m views. This run is exceptional 😊

[@UrielManX7]

How ironic that the duration is virtually the same as a Super Metroid speedrun

[@joaquinfcb27]

Fuck!!!!! How do you make that jump so advanced? I am also an experienced player but I don't know what that jump is like? What button do I have to press on the dualsense?

[@poultryleg]

i wondered about that too. i noticed that whenever they dash, the melee cooldown activates as well but slightly delayed. so i would guess its a quick input of one after the other?

[@SandiipSehmii]

What a beautiful game, the environment remiinds me of Quake 2

[@zwu6721]

Your play inspired me. Maxing your resource and health at first and second level then rush to meet the boss without beating others.

[@baudelaire8193]

holy fuck i would totally die in that biome boss jesus christ.

[@Pulkit9292]

I'm beyond impressed.

[@TheCuratorWillBQuytOperational]

How on ATROPOS did you manage to hold Phrike in place like that?

[@KalishKovacs]

Gives me the same vibes that Marathon by Bungie Studios did.

[@MrJamess1982]

Maybe I missed this but is this speed run being done with the most current updates? I know the developers had gotten rid of some of the previous speed running tricks with their later patches. Potentially due to the IGN speed run video they were involved in.

[@ttvdizturb3d]

i respect this, gamer for sure

[@drew1665]

No way to make that jump at 17:01, tried many times the same way. Update?

[@Nick-mq9vz]

Bro you shredded Nemesis. I wanted to see how you handled it with low stats and you only got hit once.

[@ibg0th]

Returnal is fun it needs a sequel or a spiritual sequel.

[@mikezigma]

i forgot about this game and will be getting it after my cigarette lol

[@VRGamercz]

Amazing run.

[@waltergoodman598]

Hardest game ever made. Really sucks cause it was becoming my all time favorite at launch but only got to chapter 3

[@johnny-mnemonic13]

Lol. Act 2 is 3x harder.

[@sergnazarchuk1003]

great job

[@johnny-mnemonic13]

Took me serious stress and multipe tries and hrs to beat Ophion. I feel stupid after he beat him in under a minute.😅

[@TheCuratorWillBQuytOperational]

Bro was THIS 👌🏻 CLOSE👌🏻 To dying TWICE!!! Against Ixion😂 And he STILL pulled out this world record speedrun 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ryoji4200]

What I hate about this game is that it kinda feels like you do it for nothing. An the end Selene is just like “yeah, I deserve this”, and nothing happens. I think it’s a good game but not for me tbh.

[@rodrigocravo2888]

wow amazing

[@KnightGab]

I guess I got lucky. I died twice to the first boss, happened to get a random player to join me and help me out. Then we died in the second boss. I died a second and third time on the second boss. I got some leech bullets and I beat the second boss and continued to beat the third and fourth in the same run

[@Str8Wildcat]

I knew this game would be too easy after seeing so many people complain thst the very first level is too hard. I uninstalled after making it past the third area boss without dying on my very first attempt. Just too boring.

[@thelegendrubyrodd]

😳😳😳

[@drewandcharlie7583]

The ng+ runs have huge views and they are so boring. Like how is a movement-only 3:50 run entertainment? BORING. This however, is impressive

[@universpro7741]

Being a loop game ruined it. Because traversing this world while exploring would've been a great immersion

[@johnny-mnemonic13]

I disagree. I think thats the novelty of this game. It intoduced a new genre.

[@SSoul0]

Rougelite is in nowhere new

[@TheShmrsh]

This game is too easy and too short
