@@restlessfrager Speedrunning is just about the coolest and most recognised thing outside of the gaming community. We’ve raised so much money as a community at SGDQ. There are bounties put on discovering new optimizations. Id rather be known as one of the thousand or so speedrunners who earned a world record than one of the million or so random office workers. And does it really matter if you arent known? If you make money off of what you love to do, playing games, who really cares about being remembered? Technically, landing on the moon was an arbitrary achivement. What was even the point of going to the moon? What did we really have to prove? By your logic, that isn’t history. Nothing is history, if the world will end. So I say make “history” in your small community rather than focusing on merely earning money in a boring job.

[@Krzyhau]

Something that should've been mentioned in this video and may confuse some people is that the main category back then was Single Segment, where we couldn't use saves at all, meaning that this kind of a thing kills the run instantly. Today, with NoSLA (No Save Load Abuse) as the main category, the softlock itself wouldn't be that painful, since loading a save file made before entering the chamber would easily avoid it. Another nitpick is that the frankenturret pushing the other one onto a button is not a physics object, but an animated one, with exceptionally broken hitbox, which you can see at 9:02 in the video. This is the reason why it can push a physics object with such big force - animated object don't react to physics objects, they simply follow the pre-made animation, and if anything is stopping it, they just push it away.

[@CantEven]

You have a decent point about pointing out the category difference; missing cubethrow used to lose 50 seconds, now it loses like 5 at most. While Msushi probably could have brought this fact up, I think the specifics on how the frankenturrets fling each other might have been a little too specific to mention as anything other than an aside, especially given Msushi's relatively casual audience; at a certain point you have to draw a line on how much information is in the video, otherwise you have a 2 hour video Hey, at least he gave you route credit though

[@Krzyhau]

@@CantEven Well, yes, I understand the video format Msushi goes for, but it's still nice to point stuff out for more curious people in the comment section. The frankenturret thing I mentioned is by no means a major misinformation. As a side note, I wish there were videos going in-depth into some mechanics of this game. While it is extremely nice to have videos like the ones made by Msushi, which are a great introduction to Portal 2 speedrunning scene for people who aren't really aware about what's going on in there, I always wanted to see videos presenting all the technical details in the nice way, something like you can see on pannenkoek2012 channel.

7:56 anything can happen with the power of friendship

[@AdamHolland-Adz]

I like the ending message. Even when speedrunners claim that a record is unbeatable or dead, someone will find something to change that, and the grind starts up again. Never give up, even when everyone else says to.

[@monkeman1519]

SO curious. It’s always fun to learn new things about Portal 2. It feels like such a rarity that I hear anything new to my ears

[@yellownomadglitch3309]

I thought it was someone else when you talked about "Msushi" , I would never think to talk in third person like that.

[@mr.dinosuar7333]

the chances of this happening while the player was on a huge world record speedrun... damn

[@starwarior8760]

Congrats to this Msushi guy, he/she seems like a good speedrunner

[@kurzackd]

"Random", you say? "Bad luck", you say ?? I say this: Someone over at Valve was feeling in an especially trolly mood that same day... ~_~

[@dhan07404]

The one time wheetlys invention actually works it's to ruin a speedrun Seems about right for him

[@Lemmons_]

Can't Even is Dream confirmed

[@juilenwooten8985]

Cant even dosen't cheat tho

[@CallumsArmy]

and his fans aren't insane for him

[@average7557]

and he didnt make the begging for subs trend

[@PhiAce_0]

Except the opposite

[@Apotheosister]

They probably didn't exploit they're fans obsession with them.

[@Freddie_06]

10:12 Right when he went the the grill, my keyboard rgb turned off.

[@andrew_cunningham]

This sounds like a nightmare you'd get after weeks of sleep-deprived grinding. WR pace, but the cutscene softlocks, and suddenly the walls of your IRL house fall away like cardboard to reveal you're at AGDQ, and you're jolted awake by the deafening voice of Spike Vegeta screaming "THaT'S NEvER hAPpEneD BEFORe!"

[@9frames590]

I just want to say I brought this video up to some friends about my abysmal rng in other games and how it is statistically impossible for me to get something with a 1 in 7 trillion chance of happening and how that I magically have that bad of luck.

[@cadetkohr5508]

"those speedrunners were Can't Even and Msushi" I think I know that last one from somewhere.

[@nodvick]

the odds of this is approximately 1 in 177 billion, with a B. In other words, can't even obviously manipulated his game files to accomplish this soft lock.

[@Dacciox]

the classic reverse dream luck

[@lemon_boy577]

dream gets softlock everytime he speedruns portal (he is just so lucky)

[@Dr_Doctor_Lee]

fascinating, how, back then, history was written with blood and guns, and today, it is with time and software

[@plasticupkake]

Msushi: "you can't just kill god" Nietzshe: am I a joke to you?

[@CCheukKa]

It's so weird to hear him talk about himself in third person

[@gavinrolls1054]

I remember getting this softlock on my 2nd playthrough.

[@justinnadin894]

:/ oof. Sry.

[@Doseplays1]

I have this happen in a run, I never knew it had happened before, much less on the most insane pace ever.

[@pontosanaz6485]

I like how all of Can't Even's clips are in 360, with no audio, two whateverthehecks in the bottomright corner and with all of the timer in comic sans

[@pandemicaunt6341]

I watched this for 3 times already and it's so good, I will watch it again

[@mrlazycrazy]

everybody gangster until 2 frankenturrets accidentally touch

[@Blastkin]

"they're possibly 2 of the best portal speedrunners ever" thats called narcissism

[@BaronSterling]

Its not narcissism if its true.

[@cobaltdeleon]

That's called facts

[@Wapako]

Isn't that weird to talk about yourself in the third person ?

[@Kingbee642]

The video won't load but I swear if this is about two fraklin turrents using the power of friendship and the power of RNG to do a one in a billion chance glitch to softlock a perfect speedrun that would've set a WR for Portal 2's speedrunning I'm gonna lose my mind

[@StaticOverTheRadio]

I have played P2 about 200 times through and I’ve never encountered the soft lock fortunately, I have however had frankenturrets kill themselves immediately upon the door opening to the chamber, which I think is pretty humorous

[@bigcesar7106]

"he is just unlucky"

[@mailingcat]

I wonder who this “MSushi” is, seems like a cool person!

[@Mathias-cq4gl]

Msushi is one of the best speedrunners ever" -Msushi

[@theorang1]

You people won't believe me but before i got the game i watched this video. I thought, "woah, thats cool. imagine if that happened to me!" When i got to Chapter 8, while i was on the catwalk, i heard wheatley say, "Yes! i knew you could do it!" Wait a second... I entered the room and sure enough, the panel was up and i was softlocked. Thanks, msushi.

[@L0op]

it will never cease to amaze me that the dialogue in Portal is actually bound to the characters, in this case a potato that's attached to the player. That's such an ass-backwards way to do it, but it feels right, and it leads to these half-realistic glitches, that makes the game feel just a bit more alive every time I see one.
