Pikmin 4 - Area 100% Speedrun - 13 days / No deaths

[@Solscalr]

The time loss to get the purple suit is the best thing ever.

[@Kiruklee]

Speed strat. We all know purple is the most aerodynamic of all the colors.

[@TheDBest1994]

Purple is the True Dandori color, as seen by Japanese stylists. They know how to Purpley the purpleness.

[@cailloufranchement3032]

It's not a time loss is a style gain, the best color!

[@BobbyFluffy]

It's worth it though, the purple suit makes you 10 times stronger.

[@treehousegames7903]

Got their priorities straight

[@guiAstorDunc]

They should add a “Dandori mode” where the cutscenes and redundant pointers are all eliminated so there doesn’t have to be as much skipping lol

[@Farygal]

Now this is true dandori. You, my friend, are a true dandori master.

This is great but I wish there was a run where you weren't allowed to use Dingo to skip the Dandori and night stuff

You need to cut the first 10 seconds of this video out. Then the video will be 4:44:44 long.

He would be disappointed as ice cube took such an easy challenge.

This is an all area speedrun? thank you good sir! 🙏🏾👍🏾

if only the video was 10 seconds shorter...

[@Silly_Bee_Evie]

I forgot how teeny tiny oatchi is 😂

[@TheMugans]

Damn nice job!

[@Yeah-hs2ek]

Awesome run! Have you considered ending the day right after saving Dingo and moving base to the second location, so that you can skip both of the speckled terrace dandori challenges?

[@ice_cube]

That would be the way to do for real time attack yes, but here I was aiming at low day count

[@manguy01]

@@ice_cube That's so cool! I was hoping to find a low day count 100%!

[@celestialspark5697]

Is minimum days part of the stated goal for the run? You could save a few minutes by returning to Sun-Speckled Terrace with Dingo to be able to skip Trial Run and Dandori Day Care (unless Trial Run is actually unskippable?).

[@Whispernyan]

It's segmented it's not an actual speedrun and as thus the minimal days aspect is the point of the video.

[@Mr.Mimic_MSM]

The Dandori of all time

Congratulations man!! 🎉 Really wanna se the RTA version.

[@pirate_cove_man]

If you're ever bored and wanna speedrun this game again, do you think tou could make a video that doesn't skip any Dandori Challenge or Battle caves?

[@ShuckleShellAnemia]

I always thought segmented speedrun meant you could rest between segments, I didn’t know it meant you could retry them. Good to know!

[@discountchocolate4577]

Back in the years before high-speed Internet made live streaming feasible, segmented runs were the norm rather than the exception for most speedgames longer than 2-3 hours, especially in RNG-laden games. In terms of optimization they sit somewhere between RTA runs and LOTADs.

[@BobbyFluffy]

Yeah, a segmented speedrun is basically a bunch of "individual-level" speedruns glued together end-to-end.

[@ShuckleShellAnemia]

@@BobbyFluffy I guess the main difference is in single level speedruns you can prepare all you want and blow all your resources in a single level without worrying about needing them for the other ones

[@kjtheguy]

how do load times effect/play into this run?

[@felixmckinney7132]

You have excellent dandori skills.

[@fallenerror6524]

Finally putting dingo to work and making him do his job

[@cullen.921]

how do you get the whistle to reach so far?!

[@samschofield9452]

i think either motion controls while holding b or walking while holding b

[@ShuckleShellAnemia]

Wiggle waggle the controller

[@LuckyOwI777]

You have extra range to throw and whistle if you use motion controls. Don't know why

[@EarthboundBenjy]

I have a question - what is the benefit of using the escape vents when you always have a "exit cave" button in the pause menu at all times?

[@harribo2323]

you dont keep ur treasures if you use that button

[@honkman29]

[@honkman29]

Also the exit cave button is used for places that have 2 entrances im pretty sure(like engulfed castle)

[@bloodstainedtyro5679]

is the "no deaths" a bonus challenge or a separate category? and if one dies, does it just automatically go on to a low death run or just plain 100% all areas? or is the run null and void altogether?

[@FireFoxie1345]

You could put it on both, however, the regular 100% is already deathless in most runs. Then there is any% route which is most certainly faster deathless than 100%. Not to mention this isn’t even the most optimal route for 100%.

[@bloodstainedtyro5679]

@@FireFoxie1345 does any% go to saving oatchi, or only to rescuing olimar? cuz if it's just to saving olimar, i feel like that's only playing half the game

[@jessehcreative]

Now you have to do it everything 100% with the Castaway Missions

[@kathlawtonlol]

I'm trying to and it is HELL

[@supahpuffin8902]

How are you able to get oatchi swimming by the time you reach blossoming arcadia?

[@GardenVarietea]

If you throw Oatchi into an elemental hazard (this includes water), the Captain will get angry at you, but the next before an expedition, you can go to Russ' shop and he'll have developed the immunity for it. Similarly, the day after Oatchi is placed in water and struggles to stay afloat, the Captain will say that she trained Oatchi on swimming

[@testtestsson4927]

​@@GardenVarieteahe will learn to swim without having to buy the swimming item?

[@GardenVarietea]

@@testtestsson4927 Not exactly, but the item in question becomes available the day after Oatchi tries (& fails) to swim.

[@124085]

How do you throw without locking on?

[@samschofield9452]

wat

[@ShuckleShellAnemia]

They’re purposely stopping just short of the lock-on range so they can keep throwing without the game making them stop at the minimum needed

[@ryannakao7265]

can someone try a co-op speedrun?

[@GlaaiveLP]

Ugh this speedrun would be so much more entertaining to watch if you couldnt just Dingo skip all dandori challenges and battles, dumb game. Great run though, the parts you cant skip on a menu were incredibly well played and awesome to watch!

[@SilvaShadow1990]

I feel a new game plus would have been better imo, and having respawning surface enemies would also be nice. Or something. I love pikmin 4 but it still feels a bit incomplete.

[@savannnnnnah]

i was reading the description and was just wondering what’s RTA?

[@PF1MIL]

real-time action iirc, meaning no tool assist

[@hilandstone]

real-time attack. means timing starts and ends with the run done in one sitting. this is segmented, meaning he reloaded and retried parts until he got a time he was satisfied with.

[@lukeblack8146]

Real Time Attack (RTA) is what is used for speedruns which are not tool assissted (TAS)

[@birdbonanza9407]

I thought you only had to do 3 night missions minimum?

[@ice_cube]

When doing 100% you have to do an extra one to cure Olimar. In other categories you can save a glow sap from the previous night mission, since you don't have extra castaways to cure. But here that extra dose is "wasted" to cure another castaway so you must do another night mission

Then don’t watch a speedrun where they aren’t required? Idk what else to tell you bud

[@unebaguette9745]

@@arachnidz7750 the thing is that I thought they were required because the first dandori challenges were done (I forgot you needed the ranger to skip them) and I didn't know you could skip the night missions. Also if there is a speedrun with those requirements I'll be happy to know it!

[@arachnidz7750]

@@unebaguette9745 tbh I’d just started the video, and am only onto the second area at the moment. Even if they are required, it is faster, hence speedrun. But there may be a skipless category eventually, who knows

[@bryangamemr4232]

Hi

[@yaddonatt]

on one hand, it's convenient that you get to skip what technically ultimately amounts to an autoscroller when it comes to dandori battles, but it's a shame it comes at the cost of obligatory skipping of all other dandori challenges, which you *could* beat with absolutely rapid dandori efficiency, but given that skipping them utterly is a faster, available option, a speedrunner still has to skip them along the way out of obligation. of course, you could always run those courses as an individual challenge, but it'd be nice for the runner's experience to get to play through them properly in longer runs, rather than just... commit seppuku about it and let Dingo handle the fun stuff.

[@ShuckleShellAnemia]

Since they’re cleanly separate from your game state before and after, it’s ok to just have individual level categories for them since they’ll play the same (not counting upgrades like the pluck whistle or Oatchi swallow)
