Spyro: Year of the Dragon 117% speedrun in

[@pudstricken272]

I have played this game a countless number of times and I have never ever heard Hunter say "eat my skate dust" in the Lost Fleet race

[@Harvenger11]

Watching in 2024. Love this game so much and really enjoy watching old PS game speedruns for a hit of nostalgia. Thanks for this, and the commentary, loved it!

[@Tryptameme]

Spyro speed runs are so impressive to me.. literally memorizing a route for the entire game, knowing where every single gem is, and the exact path to take to pick them up. Plus the movement/camera in this game is pretty aids, mastering all the movement glitches and never making mistakes is the cherry on top

[@SleepyAngelMMD]

Nitro is at it again!! Never get tired of watching the Spyro 3 speedruns!

[@pikaboyouu1747]

really impressive run, gg !!

[@pollege6579]

This is my lullaby everynight

[@CaioAletroca]

Hey!! Late to the party but amazing run!! Gonna say that you broke me in Enchanted Towers when you said all hunter lines precisely including intonation and audio cuts lol kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

[@hypnotised-clover]

51:20 WOW! All of my life, I never knew you could actually avoid the TNT barrels, I always thought they were just some cheap, unavoidable damage, and I just let Bentley get hit.

[@DovydasRybakas]

Surprising cause I knew as a kid that it worked lmao

[@thetransavenger]

Omg same I was so upset I didn't figure that out when I was younger

[@paloozaboy3791]

This is just like knowing that you could spin those stupid logs from the level Ruination in Crash 2, for a beginner those gorillas can be a pain in the ass if you don't know that trick lol

[@EVENo94]

@@DovydasRybakas I mean, you have two buttons. If first one didn't work, second one have to.

Hi Nitrofski. I'm Alessio from Italy. I played Spyro since I was 9, now I'm 21 and I never stopped playing this beautiful game. You are very, very awesome in playing this speedrun, and you gave me so much inspiration that I'm here to inform you that I'm going to start speedrunning Spyro: Year of the Dragon following what you do in this video. I know all the polygons, distances and have an accurate eye for collisions, I also DREAM ABOUT it some night o_o . I'm fully in, just have to learn all those modern things like double jump and so one... Wish me good luck ;) I WANT THAT RED GEM! x)

[@roxypillitu9381]

Buona fortuna! Metticela tutta

[@veloxplayer098yeeeah7]

Ciauz Alessio, come procede?

[@alessiomaffezzoli9143]

@@veloxplayer098yeeeah7 Ciao. Attualmente ho preso un'altra strada rispetto a ciò che scrissi in questo commento. Mi sto immergendo in un mondo fatto di matematica e informatica. Sto elaborando un algoritmo che permetta di mappare tutte le gemme , le uova e gli ostacoli nel mondo di Spyro 3, in modo da calcolare matematicamente la miglior route in assoluto, al fine di avere finalmente la TAS perfetta, a discapito delle TAS fatte fin'ora, basate solo sull'intuizione. Se solo la community di Spyro non fosse così tossica, magari avrei ottenuto più supporto, però diciamo che sono a buon punto. Nitrof ovviamente si salva, lui è sempre stato pacato e molto supporter della mia idea.

Impressive stuff man. First time watching a speedrun of this game and its really awesome seeing the level of technical abilities and parkour skips.

[@GreenApple968]

Could we please have a moment of silence for the poor defenceless frogs who were mercilessly killed at 2:05:12 and 2:05:14. There they were minding their own business when they were killed in what was an act of cold blooded murder. RIP the frogs. :( Seriously though, great speedrun. I just finished watching your 2:55 speedrun and then I was presented with a 2:52 speedrun. Keep up the good work. :)

[@black_caty]

Amazing run, dude ! GG !!

[@meestersecure9060]

I would be second guessing myself on whether or not sparx picked up the gems lmao. Nice run

[@foreveryoung1215]

Me too! How did he know!!

[@otrot1601]

What is the reason for spitting flame when gliding?

[@Hyperlink1337]

was replaying this for the first time recently and wondered how a speedrun would look for 117%. some really impressively tight movement for how sloppy these characters control, really funto watch

[@LarsTheFox]

Great run with some nice surprises!

[@bwoooooooooop]

He's done it again! Love it man

[@this.is.the.bubble]

Having completed this a few times though the reignited trilogy version I am in awe 👏🏽 I wish I had that type of memory and skill...

[@BansheeNT-D]

My favorite Spyro game.

[@AlexanderTalavari]

This was such a treat to watch and congratulations on your WR. Something that was asked on the stream but being on WR pace it's understandable you didn't pay attention to it but on 2:22:36 why the game said you already had the egg?

[@i-work-at-enron]

Imagine how faster this would be if you could still do the Ripto's Rage double jump

[@ladygabes5558]

Literally destroying those numbers. Goddam

[@Chicenk]

this is more satisfying then anything i be ever seeing

[@TheFiercestCreatureInTheWorld]

Seeing him deflect the barrel at 51:20 blew my mind, I always just used to tank those as a kid.

[@Kranjcan27]

Damn haha we all didnt knew that

[@uriboyka6375]

happy to see you again, I hope you would do speedrun for Spyro reignited trilogy

[@Nitrofski]

I have no interest in playing the reignited trilogy in a speedrun context. The original games are far more fun.

[@WEAREALLJUSTMEAT]

Insane wr bruh

[@DoweDowDow]

Jesus Christ, what a game this was…

[@admiralfoxarium8833]

2:37:27 he breaks a underwater vase but also break the one next to it. but he never touches the one next to it. the other vase shatters without him even close to the hit box. something is not right here.

[@DovydasRybakas]

We need another 117% TAS with all these new methods.

[@v6sy6]

21:15 BRO HOW?

[@pollege6579]

Aww i want to see more runs from this dude

[@ladygabes5558]

I LOVE HOW YOU NAMED THE THINGS IDK HOW HTEYRE CALLED SPYWO THE DWAGON

Just noticed you're wearing the same shirt as in your 2:59:56... Guess that's your pb shirt for S3 😏

This was awesome

[@infuriatejke]

this is so goooood!

[@kamil2308]

Sorry for my english, im from PL Watching this run couple times, can u tell how u do this sick run on Agent 9??

[@vincmentaria]

what is the use for L2 and R2?

[@alittlelofy]

please also play Reignited spyro

[@EdyGlockenspiel]

17:09 what in the actual fuck did he do to get that to happen?? How did he get thrown up into the air so damn high??

[@jasonsmith8802]

2:22:36 Why did it say he already got the egg?

[@bwoooooooooop]

It's just a glitch :)

[@justlookaroundpeople]

Very Nice!

[@musica00-7z]

30:08 I paused the video to match the lag in the TAS

[@eduardoguizarperez8417]

Amazing.

[@Elboy522]

Lotta blurred comments during lost fleet

[@finnmckinlay]

yeah what's with that?

[@hypnotised-clover]

What version of the game is the speedrun done on? I know there's quite a few versions, most obviously with the music.

[@Nitrofski]

This is done on the NTSC 1.1 (Greatest Hits and Collectors Edition) version. It looses me 20-ish seconds over someone playing on the original NTSC 1.0 version, since 1.0 does not get the cutscene before Spike and can exit out of Speedway 3-4 seconds earlier.

[@hypnotised-clover]

@@Nitrofski Why is NTSC faster than PAL?

[@Nitrofski]

@@hypnotised-clover load times exclusively

[@hypnotised-clover]

@@Nitrofski So, you run on a PS2 (fastest disc speed setting on?) or a PS1? I thought you ran on emulator. Is there a reason you choose to run on the version which gives you a disadvantage or is it simply because you only have a copy of that version?

[@Nitrofski]

@@hypnotised-clover Yes, PS2 with FDS enabled. I run on 1.1 because that's the version I got as a kid and I'm using the same disc to this day. I never felt the need to buy the faster version, and playing on 1.1 I even get the complete soundtrack 🙃

What makes lost fleet so hard?

Is this the original version or the remastered one ? I assume they will differ in times to complete

Nope, you don't need them either in Reignited, but you can unlock the galleries
