Is It Possible to Beat Lego Star Wars: TCS Without Touching a Single Stud? (Original Trilogy)

Part 1: • Is It Possible to Beat...
Update - - - The new total stud count is 5 less than the number in this video. I was able to get past 2 studs in Episode 1 Chapter 2, the first two studs I said were unavoidable back in part 1. And I was able to avoid 1 stud from Episode 3 Chapter 6 and 3 from Episode 4 Chapter 5. Those last 4 were all studs you spawn on when you enter into the level or a section of the level, and they can be avoided by swapping to a different character immediately upon loading the level. But this doesn't work for the other times you spawn on a stud, only these 3 instances (at least in story mode). However, I also incorrectly stated 2 studs must be touched in Episode 6 Chapter 3, when 3 must be touched (all 3 on the launcher thing).
This one was a bit of a doozy to make. The original trilogy levels are definitely harder to get through without touching studs...
Studs can be found all over the place in almost any Lego game, including Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga. That is usually a good thing, but it becomes a major problem if you want to beat the game without touching a single one. Why would you want to do this? I don't know - just for the challenge of it? It doesn't matter. All that does is completing every level without touching a single stud. That is our sole purpose in life from now until you finish watching this video.

[@FinkleWalrus]

At the start of part one, he mentions that he doesn't care about the value of the studs. For those that are curious, based off of the footage for both parts (including the corrections for part one), the stud count is as follows: Episode 1 - 9 Silver, 7 Gold. Value: 790 Episode 2 - 13 Silver, 11 Gold. Value: 1230 (Footage showed only 2 gold studs left on 2nd chapter for the correction, hence the extra stud) Episode 3 - 31 Silver, 27 Gold, 1 Blue. Value: 4010 Episode 4 - 30 Silver, 10 Gold. Value: 1300 Episode 5 - 19 Silver, 11 Gold. Value: 1290 Episode 6 - 31 Silver, 16 Gold, 2 Blue. Value: 3910 Across all the levels, Sovern collected 133 silver studs, 82 gold studs and 3 blue studs; for a total value of 12530. Loved the video btw, keep up the amazing work.

[@Luke-md3nq]

thomas downey he 217 you got 218

[@FinkleWalrus]

@@Luke-md3nq I know. The reason why I got an extra stud is because in the footage for the correction of chapter 2 episode 2, he says you get 9 nine studs (which I believe), but shows 10 being collected; hence the extra stud overall as you can't determine the exact value of said extra stud.

7:22 If you double jump with Han at the last possible moment, his second jump goes more horizontally than normal. 11:03 You do not have to use the panel if you space your double jump correctly. 12:17 You can skip the panel by jumping off it as Luke. 13:36 You can use the B'omarr Monk to jump over the transition to go under the entire room. 14:15 You can skip the levers with a precise jump as Luke. 15:07 You can skip this room with a very difficult out of bounds. 16:03 You can skip the hatch by jumping off the torch. You can probably skip more with transition skips. All Jedi, other than Vader and Luke, can jump farther on the Wii version, so you might be able to skip some more on that version. Anakin's Flight, Mos Espa Podrace (Original), A New Hope, and Gunship Calvary (Original) also have Story modes.

I can’t even imagine how hard that would be, considering that as technology has advanced the amount of studs in the each lego game has also massively increased. Force Awakens has soooooo many studs. I’m taking a guess that the Skywalker saga is gonna have like 5x the amount of studs that episode 7 had because it’s now on the Xbox Series X and PS5. God have mercy on Sovern’s soul.

Maybe when you use C-3PO or R2D2 for the droid panels to open locked doors n such, as soon as you click the button to activate the panel quickly switch characters so they go through the animation and activate the door as well as avoiding a stud?
