As nice as the positive vibes are i’ve made 38 attempts at Professional mode now and *cannot escape the Village in the very beginning* despite following this guide to a T so i’m convinced either this shit is *impossible* without infinite ammo guns or despite the reassurance, i do not have the ability to make it through this and won’t see the Handcannon or the Cat Ears till they release the DLC that unlocks everything that you can pay for lol. Swear i’m gonna rip my beard off if I keep failing at this shit.

@@BlueCollarZombie Take a break and come back to it. You are either too aggressive or not aggressive enough.

[@BlueCollarZombie]

@@Swaggaccino did that last night when the update for Mercenaries dropped. Lol. I’ve tried both methods, I don’t know what to do at this point. I’ve tried using Neon’s method of doing the Sweeper and a Grenade at the top of the tower, i’ve tried getting the shotgun and camping the roof to get kills that way, i’ve tried grabbing the flash in the cabin before the Village (to no avail, dude in there cockblocks me every time), i’ve tried just running around the outside edge of the village and just surviving, every strat that’s available on KZbin that you’ve probably heard of i’ve tried at this point, it’s like this game just does not want me to get a fresh Professional Difficulty clear. At all.

[@Uvikeh]

There is a difference between getting S+ rank and doing an actual speed run, you can take your time on some parts and mess up a bit during a S+ run it’s fine

[@omercicek52]

I can confirm you have to be an average gamer to easily platinum this game. Your S+ runs can be FAR from perfect, and you can still easily get S+. Just get the armor and Chicago and make it to the castle. That’s all there is to it. Other than that, literally NOTHING is required (like getting treasures and stuff). Just keep moving on to the next area, and before you know it, you’ll be on the jetski.

[@omercicek52]

And obviously you must know what comes next in the game in order to save time, but you will probably have a good sense of the routes if you are on a platinum hunt and have had 2 runs before.

Yeah, currently at the beginning of chapter 6. Only the Bella sisters and Mendez left. So looking forward to buttblasting everything starting at chapter 7.

[@zffrailgun1630]

After getting clapped by Mendez on my first Pro run, I decided to study a bit of his moveset and have two tips to give for anyone that might be struggling. First, use the i-frames of jumping off the second floor to your advantage. Sit up there as long as possible. The second has to do with everyone's favourite attack, the flaming planks. This attack has two variations: 1) He lifts one plank in front of him. In this one, you ideally want to be sitting fully left or fully right. If you are, just sprint to the opposite direction and don't stop. If you aren't, you won't have enough room to avoid both attacks. In that case, sprint to one direction first and after you dodge the first plank, immediately flip to the opposite direction. 2) He lifts both planks in front of him. He's going to throw both at the same time. This attack is a bait, all you have to do is stand completely still.

[@MiggetyMattR]

I've found that the easiest way to consistently dodge the flaming wood is to crouch and strafe towards the direction that he's throwing from, he'll miss 100% of the time unless you did it wrong

[@honorsquanch7044]

For those who have the deluxe edition and don't want to face the mutt, there is a guaranteed spinel in the hanging treasure outside the belle sisters house. If you find just one random spinel prior to castle that will give you enough as long as you do the medallions at the castle gate. This is what I did and it still allowed me to have infinite amo before the water room

[@JRook-00]

I believe the one above the Bridge in Valley is a guaranteed spinel as well. Meaning that if can land a high pressure shot in the middle of that Hellscape, you get both of those, you can skip the dog entirely, no matter what, and get the exclusive in Audience Chamber after the Outer Walls Medallions sheering off somewhere near 5 Minutes from the overall time, and saving a SHIT LOAD of bullets. Theoretically. How delightfully pay-to-win.

@@MEXICANASSASSIN2 No, above the bridge in Valley, right next to where you get the Hexagon Key with the bird "puzzle". Right after you get your gear back from the factory. EDIT: Directly above and to the left of where he is at 18:23. You might be able to hit it from the platform where you go up the ladder to get in before engaging, but it would require either the Rifle or starter handgun for lowest possible spread. I'll give it a try in the next couple days, and come back with my results.

[@JRook-00]

@@MEXICANASSASSIN2 Confirmed: The Expanded Map Treasure above him at 18:23 IS always a spinel. So between that one and the one in the Checkpoint, you can have 25 before the castle without ever fighting the dog, and 30 from the Medallions at the gate. The god is no longer necessary.

I was so nervous for chapter 5, I followed your guide. I end up using more ammo and heals than you but I made it. THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@NeonSlice]

No problem! Happy to help

[@fotsobennismounir5573]

Update, I did it. Final time 5h02. I got stuck on so many parts. First the Bella Sisters in chapter 6 took me 2hours to pass. I almost gave up. Next hurdle was the 2 gannadors in chapter 10 before the throne room. Final one was the duo El Gigante in the mines. For some reasons, I had to use so much heals for them even though they're not that hard. Thank you again for this amazing guide, can't wait for your next one

Great content, great help and great video. 😊

Aw thank you! I Will make more content like this ;)

I recently finished the hardcore S+ this morning with 4:18:47, since your guide is both therapeutic and very informative. As an icing on the cake, a certain wide spread shot charm dropped from the three silvers I threw into the same castle shooting gallery machine lol My last goal is cat ears now from replicating your guidance into my past runs xD Thank you Neon Slice for reigniting the speed run thrill, miss that feeling all too well 😊

[@NeonSlice]

Thanks for watching 😊

[@zorro67]

Hi I am doing this on hardcore also and there is no typewriter for the second minecart ride to save at. did this happen for you too

[@mandragorkorefanich294]

Best guide out there. Got me through Hardcore S+ for the chicken hat and then Pro S+ for cat ears. Love this channel.

[@NeonSlice]

[@andremrh7690]

I would recommend some small changes to Chapters 1 and 2. If you have the Deluxe Edition, bring the Skull Shaker along. You can reliably juke out the villager from the cabin just before the Village gate. At this point you can try and retry to get a perfect parry on him if necessary. You only want the flashbang. It will be useful for Chapter 2. The Skull Shaker will allow you to push out Dr. Salvador from the tower ladder. Drop the grenade only when your Sweeper and Shaker are out of ammo (as in needing to reload, the Sweeper takes ages). You should be able to get roughly some 12 kills this way. If you luck out, you can finish the village sequence right there. You can burn a little bit more time in the farm after killing both villagers. If you go for the treasure route, you can get a Flagon that will allow you to buy an extra Healing Spray in Chapter 2. AFAIK, the enemy reinforcements only spawn AFTER the cow head barges through the door, so you can go upstairs and kill the pitchfork lady and get some extra ammo (I recommend doing this IF you finish the Village sequence early, otherwise, skip it). For Chapter 2, kill the rats along the way to save a little bit of time. Buy the Case upgrade and sell the Flagon if you got it or, alternatively, save it for later. For the lady on the way to the emblem, shoot her feet. If you get it right, she'll fall down for an immediate knife kill. Otherwise, aim for headshots and get BEHIND her to get the insta-kill knife prompt. Equip the Kitchen knife for this. Use the shotgun and clear a path to the RIGHT of the main arena. You'll need to shotgun or sweep anywhere between one to three villagers. Get the emblem and make a run for the crank. Blow up the red barrel near the crank. After that, throw the flashbang you got from Chapter 1. Should give you enough time to crank safely. If you are feeling frisky, drop down to ground level and jump into the cabin that's below the crank for a Healing Spray. Keep in mind the door has a lock that you have to knife and there may be enemies outside. Get back to the merchant, store the Sweeper and buy the Sniper Rifle. Go out the emblem gate, stealth kill the first guy, deal with the second, juke the lady into falling into the bear trap for an insta-kill melee prompt. Collect everything before Dr. Salvador. Get as close as you can to him with the Sniper Rifle, aim at his head. The moment you see him start the chainsaw, shoot him. This should stagger him and you can melee him into the explosive line. Alternatively, shoot him and run past him. He'll blow himself up. You may or may not finish him if you want his gem. Get inside the house bathroom and you should get a knife prompt to insta-kill the guy in the toilet. Juke him around with the dinner table and complete the Chapter. These changes could either end up saving you some time (1 to 2 min, tops) or lose you some time (1 to 3 min, tops). Either way, you should end up with more ammo and some extra healing sprays. If you are extremely confident of yourself, you could potentially switch out the Chicken Hat for either the Deer Antlers or the Wolf Tail. Fantastic guide overall my friend.

[@davidsepulveda5812]

Hey bro! for your first points I did similarly, I entered the cabin before the village's gate and theres a way to do so, look at the floor, for some reason would make you either faster on close evasion, or would keep the villager to throw an attack, then you run pass him, circle fast around the room, and go out, worked for me 4 out of 5, of course I wouldnt call it something a rookie would easily do, but it helps. I dont share one of your points tho I feel like running out of bullets completely on purpose on the first horde, would be kind of problematic (they mostly just dropped me pesetas) I could stay at the top and kill everyone without falling, using bullets, but as soon as Salvador was climbing, a grenade, this kills everyone right underneath you, and take him off the ladder, so you have your options open too mmm but anyway thats very subjective on each playstyle, I have my own gameplay changes through the walkthrough (which is amazing ) tbh is very interesting how everyone manages a way to cut through with different tactics.

Man, I'm going to be honest This is probably the hardest thing I have ever done in a videogame ever, even completing God of War on max difficult was easier than this BUT! If it wasn’t for you, I could never do this, I just finished in 3:48 and the most difficult part was the zone after the first time you see the merchant (IT WAS A HELL TBH) or maybe I'm just unlucky hahaha Anyways Thanks a lot man! Your guide is top tier and I really put a lot of effort on completing this just to not play the Hardcore S+ and Standar S+ (Im too lazy so I went for the most difficult one and get the others at the same time) Thanks man, thats all, thanks! PD: Advice for anyone trying this aswell (it worked for me but maybe it wont for you) You dont really need to upgrade the Chicago to level 3 or more, just save all the money you can to buy 3 rocket launchers: One for Salazar, One for Krauser and One for Saddler and also, save 2 big grenades for the chapter 15 skip, It will save you a lot of time and effort Please people, Follow exactly what he says, save at the same point he does, he is really doing it right you just need to keep trying

Amazing walkthrough of this run. Got my cat ears earlier today using this (specifically for the later parts of the game) and everything was well explained and made it easy to get this done. I even learned new strategies for different parts of the game that I will probably use for as long as I play this work of art. I will definitely recommend this vid to anyone else I come across thank you for this Neon

[@CostelloDamian]

21:16 you can shoot the plank on the well to your left to get the treasure above it. If you do it from the distance (same place you shot the first treasure) you will not trigger the chainsaw and can proceed as per guide. Make sure you are not getting any closer or the shot will trigger the chainsaw. I hope it helps. Great guide!

@@closedlane5027 maybe but they do not enjoy the game. Finishing it yourself is way more fun and you feel like you accomplished something. For me namely, I finished the platinum 2 days ago and it really meant a lot to me because RE4 Remake became my favourite game of all time ever since my first playthrough. So doing these challenges is a way of satisfaction and kind of a way to feel proud about myself. So to respond to your answer, I believe people care about it and wouldn't even pay for the achievements if they were true gamers because what is the point of buying a game as a gamer if you are gonna give it to some to unlock everything for you. Might as well gift them the game

Useful thing I noticed about the Del Lago fight in my run, follow where it goes to avoid the stuff in the water. If Del Lago goes either left or right of an object then follow it. I noticed this I never got hit by that stuff it helped a lot. Annoyingly there will be times where it’s a bit difficult to tell which side it went but try your best to pay attention to it’s tail fin or the waves it leaves behind to help. Hope this helps someone.
