[@BlackOrkid777]

I had the opposite experience, for some reason the beginning part of the haligtree killed me more times than melania did. Only boss that took me more than like 30 mins was Radahan. He took me 2 hours, that was brutal.

@@BlackOrkid777 I struggled with him too haha. It's weird though, after that I was doing bosses at a good pace until I got the that black blade guy. I actually nearly uninstalled the game in rage with him haha

[@GodsDissapointment]

@@BlackOrkid777 yea I had way harder time with Radahan and other bosses. then I did with Melania. I think its because Radahan you have to know hi s pattern as he delays his hits so much only for them to come out lightening quick. Same with other bosses. Whereas melana came out the gate swinging fast as fuck and allowed me to go back to turning off my brain and just reacting. That probably also part of the reason people found her so difficult to fight. The whole game basically trains you to not react and actually learn the bosses patterns and Melania comes in and says "fuck that if your thinking your too slow".

@@virtualmartini no1 said it was hard

[@TheTrueVirus22]

@@virtualmartini well that is a stretch because of course repetition eventually makes a hard thing easy. Not every strat is necessarily hard to do but some are. So i would say taking everything together it is hard to do a speedrun because you need to learn everything, apply it and you also need a lot of patience which is like the most important component. You will play the same game on end and eventually it comes down to seconds and you will have countless runs where some dumb shit happens that makes you restart again. So yeah it is tons of repetition but that doesn't make it less hard.

@penguinz0 for the Godskin Duo's rolling attack, if you manage to get to the side of the roll you can just target lock and strafe in the opposite direction he is rolling if you are close enough because his turn speed is not high enough to catch you. It's really hilarious dodging it that way and doesn't require panic rolling (except maybe the first time if you are too far away when he starts it). Although I haven't tried it, but if his turn speed is truly low enough you might be able to just get close enough to stand still and maybe get some hits in.

Specially now for guys like Dist, he's got his runs so clean now that if a bosses AI doesn't do the right attack or he misses one attack it can literally kill a run and even on the best of runs because you reset for small mistakes fatigue becomes a thing and then mistakes happen even more. It's really a true skill to do these. Yes anyone can run the game fast using these methods and skips but you might cut your runs down to a few hours.

It’s been almost a month, and I still can’t beat this game.

[@m.letizia5821]

It's ok,take your time,eventually you'll do it :)

[@m.letizia5821]

Yo what's with all the bots in the comment section?

[@darkstar8196]

Comparing yourself won't help. Most people with a job probably haven't beaten it yet either.

[@daffaagung]

I still haven't bought the game, don't worry lol

[@TheBrightlord]

Try to put all defensive talismans on and go for light equipload or put on bloodhound step itll be a little easier for you to dodge attacks best of luck sir

[@r.j.tammaro8383]

It’s so weird that both Sens/deathcam skip AND Wrong Warp are back when to my knowledge they are just in DS1 and not present in 2 or 3

[@kkronkk]

Let's be honest- Charlie could beat any speedrun record without even breaking a sweat. No wonder Charlie has never been invited to a Dream manhunt. Dream would be slaughtered within seconds.

[@acornbird]

please just get off this website

[@awildhumanoid5436]

can't wait for summoningsalt's "the history of Elden Ring speedruns"

[@KingXOreo]

Hey, haven't played but I have a question: Why do some bosses not attack when you're wailing on them?

[@spoderbas5550]

If you get into their arena in the not intended way they don’t register that the battle has started yet so they don’t do anything

[@everysinglepoop]

What the other guy said but also a couple of bosses can just glitch out and freeze (or at least could of if the patch fixed them)

[@CinnamonToastKing]

Unless this is an older video pre patch the weapon buffing doesn't effect spells and skills anymore. Also then just assume he is playing an unpatched version.

[@cheifwaffle]

Suprised how good he is at elden ring. So used to seeing him play games badly lol

[@griffisyt]

He’s a souls vet

[@cheifwaffle]

@@griffisyt i know. I was just used to his old videos where lazily plays games

[@kidnamedfinger3958]

It's crazy how fast the records have changed in such a short period of time.

[@prawngravy18]

Not really. There are a lot of skips.

[@kameronsandifer7]

@@prawngravy18 yeah but it went from 50 min to 28 in less than a week pretty much the same route

[@foxy3.o891]

He acted for meat canyon:"D

[@Cam-on2jw]

i’ve never played a dark souls-type game, but charlie’s gaming skills look crazy in this

[@rionn2]

Considering the world is 4.5 billion years old, the difference of the current world record speed run and Charles' personal best is negligible which means that Charles is also the world record holder. Congrats bro!

[@joab757]

About to get crazier. D is gonna have to find a new weapon after patch today

[@spunchbob4642]

anyone know what armor hes wearing at 2:24

[@ibonk9673]

carian knight armor

[@R3M0RSE]

The same armor he grabbed at the tombstone before he was grab dropped by the skele

[@ethanjuice]

that godskin duo is freaking insaneo style for sure

[@L33Tbii]

don't get discouraged, you can do a way better run, I want you to succeed in this speedgame, you have the potential to really get good in the leaderboards! gamermode charly!

[@CZProductions]

The all remembrances Speedrun category is the best one out there, don't @ me

[@targetecho27]

There's an easy radagon cheese if you strike before he turns around, why is no one doing this in speedruns it's infuriating!!!!

[@aeryonyx4809]

The recent patch fixed the royal knight determination glitch as well as nerfing hoarfrost stomp, I wonder how much that’ll effect these speed runs

[@thedarkyoshi1337]

Wow! Charlie might be the most talented gamer of all time! He truly has achieved turbo super barbarian status!

[@ursaminor2732]

bot comment

[@N0thing2SeaHere]

They nerfed hoarfrost stomp's damage and speed. I wonder what the new run weapon will be.

[@FroggyTheNinja]

It's insane how your average joe beats this game in about 60 hours but then you have people that beat it in under 30 minutes....

[@FroggyTheNinja]

@@sleepykyokoxoxo I'm an average Joe and not a souls elitist. So you're wrong.

[@Condor_]

Some of these strategies died today with the new update, like the nerfs to Hoarfrost Stomp. I'm looking forward to seeing how people adjust.

[@philmur18]

They might just play on the previous patch. Many speedrunning communities do that after patches

[@justusgordon-tilo5930]

Imagine spending years on developing a game, all the time and care that your team put into making it one of the best mechanically, huge map, revamped bosses… Then someone beats it in 35 minutes.

[@profanemagic5671]

tbh, i'd feel honored. Putting hours into speedrunning is still spending hours on the game, even if it might not be 1 playthrough.

[@autonomic471]

Devs sometimes purposely code things specifically with speedrunners in mind. IGN has a dev reacts to speedruns playlist and they seem to love the runs

[@matchington1148]

@@autonomic471 i love that series. The OG creators of Halo CE reacting to a speedrun was my favorite

[@shogunpug4071]

Speedrunning isn't disrespecting a game

[@Foeisudhxj]

It would probably be more disheartening if it was one of those glitch abusing speedruns where they do some flashy trick, clip through the entire map and fling themselves at mach 689 thousand and then beat the final boss by smashing their keyboards with a hammer and closing and opening the game repeatedly. and then get a 20 second world record for a game with a 200 hour long main campaign. Like imagine spending years to make a game as perfect as possible and then you see someones live stream is entirely dedicated to abusing all of the flaws in your game.

[@MucketyMuck]

People already speed running this and I’m still stuck on Radahn

[@lemonkes8618]

Can anyone explain how he does so much damage against beast clergyman with the frost stomp.

[@agentace1476]

Not anymore

[@alexandersoeder3891]

hoarfrost just got nerfed but it was insane prior to it, that's why he was doing so much damage

[@lemonkes8618]

Oh ok thanks guys

[@Umezete]

Frost might be bugged too, it feels like EVERY enemy is weak to it. Add in how frost stacks bonus damage and hoarfrost can double hit and it was a very op weapon art.

[@daftmi9hty327]

On a whim I decided just to see how quickly I could beat the game with out any prior knowledge of the speed run routes I beat the game in about 5 hours I'm gonna have to try out the speed run strats look fun
