Sonic 3 & Knuckles - All Emeralds Glitchless Speedrun with Sonic (100%) in

[@Werster]

As mentioned in the description, given I am using my own stricter ruleset for "Glitchless", I am not labelling this as a "WR", because really I would just be competing with myself, and I think that would be rather self indulgent. This is however, the best run (it's currently faster than the runs that use the more lax ruleset too)

[@TonightStarfall]

Good record though

[@antant6217]

I greatly prefer glitchless. Screen wrapping is very boring when it's done so many times.

[@MeruXYZ]

As someone who grew up with S3&K, this is exactly how i would beat the game near daily. (Obviously not like THIS). But all emeralds, as fast as I could. Gotta love hypersonic, and gotta love Werster. Cheers, bro this run was insane.

[@DidgeridudeEX]

Wow those Special Stages are giving me a headache. I'm most impressed by how you managed to navigate through the Red Spheres. Kudos Werster.

[@MWregi]

came to see impressive S3&K gameplay, got hooked by impressive blue spheres gameplay.

[@AllThisOverASliceOfGabagool]

I love the absolute sheer disrespect in the special stages. A few of them I was just pissing myself laughing because the skill on show was insane! I've tried so often to jump over rows of red spheres and every time I die. Frankly, the whole thing is crazy and to have the stamina to put it together in a 70 minute run is equivalent to playing three of Beethoven's most complex piano sonatas back to back without any noticeable mistakes. Absolute artistry and shows off Sonic 3 & Knuckles at its best.

[@josh1234567892]

Kind of interesting to actually see the level design on this game for once lmao

[@JoeJaJoeJoe]

Those special stage routes are WILD! Really creative pathing and super tight jumps over red spheres

[@Crohbar]

The only true competition is against the self. King shit.

[@Ryzarck]

looooooooooove the movement in this run. So many tight windows on platform cycles its insane. Great job dude.

[@nachorodriguez6380]

This is a lot more fun to watch than an any% glitchfest. Great job!

[@tito9107]

This was peak sonic! Loved how hypersonic essentially had all 3 element abilities 🤘

[@theancientsam]

i like how knuckles seems to be helping eggman as a joke, he tries to trip sonic up and cant even keep a straight face lmao

[@thatashgirly]

it’s like when someone’s about to tell a joke that they can’t help but laugh at before they can even say it. i can totally imagine knux thinking “this is the funniest thing ever watch this”

[@byronnelson9551]

This was very satisfying to watch. Thank you Werster.

[@HyperSonicXtreme]

43:36 *AND THIS…IS….TO GO….EVEN FURTHER BEYOND!!!*

[@PedroMasiero]

I feel like this is as we were watching Sonic himself storming through the levels. Fucking amazing!

[@norfairaffair]

19:53 perfect silence

[@violettflower]

Me ha dado cada paro cardíaco. Qué buen video lptm

[@tafkajimmyfish]

These ost's slap so hard, I wish they had gone with something longer than 4 seconds for the super sonic theme

[@hectorsuper]

used theme of speed o the super Theme prototype used sonic 3 complete and sonic 3 Air

[@iurk0_streaming]

I didn't even know that the bonus stages could be optimized to that level

[@Shyguy71588]

Good stuff Werster

[@FlyingRaccoon-v9z]

Holdup, you can change the direction on hyper sonic’s boost? 43:38

[@notsoawesomeone]

Alright... now with all perfect blue spheres lol

[@theancientsam]

how come knuckles doesnt use his tower destroying bombs in any of the future games lol

[@charliegreekdominos69420]

Dr. Robotnick probably made it and gave it to him.

[@SoleDecembr]

I’ll never understand glitch runs, These runs however 👏

[@uyhawirt]

My childhood, beautiful game 😭

[@megabit95]

29:32 Shadow!? O.o

[@Chad_Thundercock]

As evident by the beginning of Angel Island, Knuckles is stronger than Super Sonic. Canon.

[@MrSparkle404]

When did Werster start TASing these game?

[@Convergant]

Is there any significance to the order you get the super emeralds in?

[@Ahamkeira]

the hydro city 2 route is so cool

[@mh123_yt]

What did you use to play the game? I've never heard the drum samples sound so pronounced and punchy before!

[@partyfoxdavy]

Crazy awesome!

[@MangG0d]

43:28 🐐Legend🐐

[@IronHelpsUsPlay]

Isn't a bit strange how a straightforward punch from knuckles is able to make Super Sonic regress back to blue Sonic?

[@그녀는용-n2x]

your respect

[@theancientsam]

1:04:49 lol sonic wyd

[@domikarus5237]

54:00 I once died to this boss as Hyper Sonic when the stones returned

[@damin9913]

I still play sonic 3&knuckles the game had so much fun too it

[@Bobjamz3.0]

I'm watching this on sonic and knuckles 30th anniversary. Well the 30th anniversary of sonic 3 and knuckles lol

[@theancientsam]

i never thought the super sonic theme song would get repetitive but damn xD

[@Andyw00Hall]

There should have been an option to revert the music to normal level music when in super/hyper sonic

[@theancientsam]

@@Andyw00Hall 100%

[@theancientsam]

the story in sonic 3 and knuckles is literally better than most AAA games today lmao god when will the dark age of gaming end

[@AonelEchi]
