Super Metroid - SPEED RUN in

[@teckworks]

The Hand Cam makes Zoast look like he has a huge head and tiny arms.

[@heywoodjablowme1624]

I just finished a 100% run of Super Metroid. Only took me an hour per day for 2 weeks.

[@darazmes]

jajajajajajaja

18:47 blueglass actually trying to correct Zoast about Super Metroid!! Un-fucking-believable!

[@notpsicoh2107]

he was pretty sure tho

[@GearedCookies]

There should be a donation incentive to make Blueglass shut up in these situations. That would probably make millions! :D Regardless, great run by Zoast as per usual. What a God.

[@Mikey6119x]

damn that dude in the red right behind zoasty looks like hes going to explode if he doesnt try to spew out random super metroid tidbits its as if he wants someone to be like you know more than zoasty !!

[@stevethigpen6242]

Truly annoying.

[@Empolo18]

I feel bad for the guy on the couch with the hat. Having to look around the player. Also what's up with the pink shirt guy blurting in all the time? He needs to be quiet. The runner and the other two guys are doing just fine explaining what's happening in the game.

[@DerekPlaysChess]

I agree. I appreciate him being there and supporting but he seems to lack basic social niceties.

[@rgeluzable]

Gamers aren't always the most socially suave based on what we're used to seeing on television. He does make some good points that Zoast happens to agree with. If anything, a lot of people on KZbin just watching can learn a lot about respecting people that are different from them.

[@DeviantDespot]

Have an autistic friend just like him, so I make the assumption some similar situation is going on. Takes some time getting used to, but he is probably a really nice guy.

[@xnreyescj]

Guy with red-ish shirt on the couch reminds me of Bobcat Goldthwait.

[@samuelhayden8665]

I remember using this as a guide when I first played super metroid because I had no clue what to do. I was like 9 or 10 at an after school program and I would have 1 tab with a super metroid emulator and another of this video. Seeing this now makes me realize just how far we've come with speedrunning. Normally where you would do a moonfall to get to the bottom of the room right before the nes mother brain room, Zoast didn't do it, either because he couldn't (which I doubt) or because it hadn't been found yet. Zoast even did Kraid first instead of Phantoon, and it's moments like these that show you just how different 2013 was compared to 2023.

[@sh7eug]

Thank you so much for this run. While I will never be this good, this route was a huge help. Been playing this game for about a month. Took my 100% in game timer from 5:00 (for my first run) down to 1:08 in game timer for my personal best run today. (Not sure what real time would be) I think if I want to get better, I'm gonna have to get off my ass and really learn damage boosting, shinesparking from a jump and get way better at mockballing. And super short charges. Not sure if I have the manual dexterity to get that good.

[@greecoboost]

OK, come on...I have to say it: You *know* that at some points during the run, the people in the room were all thinking "Dude..pink shirt guy....Shut. The. Fuck. Up. and let the man do his run!"

[@TheZachorios]

The amount of skill Zoast has at this game left me in awe!

[@BloodPlusPwn]

Yeah, Blueglass is annoying but the dude is always going to be there. Really, the only thing that annoys me is when he argues with a guy like Zoast about something in Super Metroid lol I just say let the guys like Go1den talk about the game since he actually plays it, or Zoast if he prefers.

[@DiggyNutz]

I dislike his voice...but he is prolly a good person at heart.

[@warriortoad8109]

Mceb

[@Zerox367]

This speedrun is insane! Props to zoast on this one.

[@K100music]

Blueglass come on man shhhhhhhh you don't have a mic and the other 2 guys were clearly put there with mics on to talk us through the game.

[@forumrabbit]

Except they weren't talking most of the time. If you're put on the couch you're expected to explain shit for those who don't know all of what's going on, and when no one else was doing it BG stepped up. He knows when to be quiet based on the fact that he supports nearly everyone's run by showing up unlike lots of people that only show up for their own run and maybe 3 or 4 more.

[@K100music]

forumrabbit They weren't talking because Blueglass kept talking over them.

[@GearedCookies]

K100 ^ This times infinity. Blueglass may be a nice guy nobody is saying the contrary. But he NEEDS to shut the fuck up, even the runner was annoyned, hell everyone was annoyed at Blueglass for talking so damn much and trying so hard to be funny. He knows when to be quiet? Fuck no he doesn't, the guy has NO IDEA of when to shut the fuck up and that's a fact, whether he's a nice guy or not, he needs to understand that runners/viewers don't enjoy his constant bickering. Hell I even remember a Metroid run where there was a guy that told Blueglass to keep quiet because he was giving off WRONG information about a certain trick and Blueglass kept disagreeing and saying that he himself was right. I kinda had to mute the video sometimes because I just couldn't take it and I am a not easily annoyed kind of guy.

[@dept-7443]

forumrabbit 53:28 yeah, he really knows when to be quiet

[@humblepie9906]

This is how it used to be when I got a new nintendo or super nintendo game back in the days. Everybody just watching , eagerly awaiting for you to pass to the next level, and to be honest gaming was kids or nerds in those days(1980's and 1990s). This is really cool! Super Metroid took me months to beat.

[@Navifaerie64]

They should do a donation pool for Blueglass to remain silent. On a serious note, I get commentary for people who don't know the game, but I specifically remember for the Zelda II speedrun that he was talking about stuff that anyone who looked it up on GameFAQs would know.

[@redhatcore]

Just finished this game at 100% for the first time ever. I followed this video as a guide because it was this video that inspired me. So many of these tricks were very hard for me. My childhood can sleep now. Thank you Zoast. xD I totally saved the animals doe.

[@remrinn]

You can just tell that blueglass was getting on zoast's nerves lol

[@bandido649]

he didn't give me that impression, in some cases he jumped in the conversation which blueglass started. but thanks for creating drama

[@bandido649]

thanks for making a big deal out of it. blueglass is a cool guy regardless

[@mla7071]

[@Jasler7]

Zoast is concentrating. It has nothing to do with Blueglass.

[@TheToAsterTacO]

I had no idea what was going on but I loved every min of it!

So much hate for poor Bobcat Goldthwait!

[@josemigueltavarezjimenez3967]

[@Chris349]

Awesome run. I remember playing this game as a kid and really enjoyed watching this. As for all the people hating on Blueglass, I think you are being a little harsh. Sure his laugh and random comments got excessive at times, but he was really the only person who was keeping the commentary alive.

[@Fireball_Roberts]

The most amazing part about this run is how he was able to maintain concentration with that annoying neckbeard flapping his gums.

[@annabelleautumn5859]

I came to the comments looking for someone else bitching about him 😂

[@Persiana]

The guy in the pink shirt is obviously trying too hard to be funny, or noticed by anyone else in the room. It makes me kinda sad, but at the same time I want him to do a speedrun of Live Action Russian Roulette.

[@greecoboost]

I honestly laughed out loud at your comment. Not the internet kind of "LOL" but an honest to goodness laugh. Thank you :-) You win my +1

[@Xxrooster138]

Dev n says the guys responding to a three-year-old comment

[@retfarcimak]

Here's a few things I've found. GRAPPLE BOOST: grapple a block or a ripper V. 2, press down to make the beam longer, swing until you have a lot of momentum, and release. This makes you go faster then a normal grapple. WATER SKIM JUMP: you need the space jump for this. Go to an area that's deep enough to make the space jump turn into the somersault you have at the start (can't use the gravity suit for this) but still get into the air from jumping. You will only be able to skim the water while space jumping, but the animation is of the somersault. EARLY WRECKED SHIP (KINDA): you can access the area before the wrecked ship at the start of the game. Wall jump off the side of the platforms and change direction so you land on them, repeat until you reach the top. Jump off the right and you will be by the door leading to the wrecked ship.

[@denvames6048]

I hope Blueglass doesn't take these comments to heart on here. A lot of people don't understand certain medical conditions and often times just want to put people down to make themselves feel better. Obviously he has a neurological condition but all in all seems to have most issues under control. Yes his voice is naturally louder than most, but so what? Maybe accepting people for who they are, clearly nobody running the games or sitting in these rooms have a problem with him being there, so why should the viewers. You can mute the video you know?

[@jmeador85]

It's not that he's being too loud, he's just talking a lot. You see Blueglass in a lot of other speed run videos from this event where he doesn't say anything more than "Blueglass" at the role call. He just got really talkative in this video. :P

[@stephenabayless3590]

Joseph Meador Yeah, but dude, he probably takes medications for different issues. There are a lot of side effects.

[@greyfox37]

To those defending Bluegrass: I don't care if he's a nice guy, how much he donates, how intelligent he is about games, etc. He is annoying and he keeps butting into others trying to talk. Good deeds, intentions, etc are great and all, but if you're annoying regardless, that's the way it is

[@Hillooish]

That damn Blueglass..

[@inujosha]

For a planet of monstrous aliens, Planet Zebes sure does have some nice elevators and doors.

[@jcdr]

Too much bashing for Blueglass, aside the awkward laugh he's a pretty nice guy and he's in a lot of other runs which shows the support he tries to give to all the other speedrunners

[@PolosLetsPlays]

I never think he's a bad guy but his laugh always ruins it for me xD if i hear it too much i have to switch it off. Nothing against him as a person but hot damn xD

[@Earthboundmike]

That's certainly more rational then the other hate I've seen going around for him. I don't get it. He's not being an ass he's just maybe a bit off on his social skills and lets be honest, most of us are. I felt sorry for him more then anything.

[@diegoleal1207]

Jcdr Jcdr being nice doesn't exhume you from being critiziced, he may be nice, but he's still annoying and unfunny

[@justsomenerd8925]

Being nice doesn't really mean shit in the real world. Cool story, he is a nice guy. He is also annoying, and has the social perception of a rock.

[@reflectionist]

Also, holy shit the blueglass hate. They aren't commentating for each other's benefit. But when someone is capable of bending an SNES game over their knee and just start busting ass, yeah, some techniques may need to be explained. Otherwise its just wanton abuse. I dig Blueglass. Some of you guys might find him annoying, but I thought the commentary helped.

[@chara2038]

I liked BlueGlass comments, he actualy gives a lot of interesting info about the run! its much better than incovenient donation readers (not all of them, some are pretty good at picking comments and finding time to read them, but some, are horrible like _"my granpa died of cancer" folowed by claps_

[@tylerlewis1190]

[@adnromero18]

I knew even before looking at the comment section, that their'd be comments about the Red shirt fuck lol

[@SuperDicasxp]

My 100% record in this game was in 1996 1:29, but I spent 10 minutes reloading all the weapons in the room before the piterodacter boss to defeat him. I never had a Snes, I only played in the neighborhood playgames, there were a lot of players, so we exchanged game knowledge. I thought I had the world record kkk, I stopped playing SUPER METROID at least 22 years ago, but this 1:29 record was great for me. Today I do not remember anything!

[@houseofshadow6380]

[@BlackKoiRecords]

Lastly. When people open this video, the last thing they want to hear is commentary from some other dude who doesn't know sh1t about super metroid. I would have left this video because of him alone. And you wonder why people do not like him nor his voice. I know this is a year ago, but please stop sticking up for wrong behavior.

[@alphaenemy]

Your assertion of my idiocy us based on one point of criticism leveled at your excessive vitriol over a guy that comments too much about video games in a vocal register that you can't accept. I've considered the source and simply can't take offense. It would be a form of bullying, and I won't stoop to your level.

[@BlackKoiRecords]

Understood. However, you did the moment you proposed a comment to my simple statement. At then end of the day, you did not have to say anything which showed your personal aggression towards me. I took that Defensively and went against you in a negative fashion, for that I apologize. Alphaenemy, have you ever had some talk while you played a video game? Have you had someone criticize you whilst you played such game? It may be in positive intentions, however, it may come off disrespectful to most, hence why I said this video may turn off newer or future viewers.

[@BlackKoiRecords]

*someone

[@greecoboost]

BlackKoiRecords I wish more people had that level of self-awareness and humility you've shown here. The kind where one apologizes, not letting stubborn pride get in the way and not clinging to one position out of spite. Much respect, man.

[@Purrebark]

alphaenemy I like how in your first comment you wrote your shit like a normal person would, and when BlackKoiRecords insulted you, you immediately made this try-hard comment to sound more intelligent. Embarrassing as fuck to read your comment dude. "I've considered the source and simply can't take offense". You clearly was offended and saying "I've considered the source" where there is no point in writing that, and using "vitriol" as a word of choice, just made you look like an idiot. Deliberately using "fancy" words doesn't make you look intelligent.

The guy in the pink shirt is Blueglass, he's one of the most annoying guys at those events. Most annoying voice and laugh. There really needs to be a Mute Blueglass feature at the next event.

[@SuperDicasxp]

My record was 100% in this game in 1996 1:29, but I lost 10 minutes of game killing insects, in the room that is before the head of the pterodactyl, I use it, so you can carry all weapons to defeat him. I never had a Snes, I always played in neighborhood playgames where there were a lot of players, so I exchanged a lot of knowledge about games. I thought I had the world record in this kkk game! The pair of jokes or SUPER METROID is under 22 years old, but this 1:29 record of mine was great for me at the time. Today I do not remember anything!

[@krisnyc9134]

if you don't save them then you didn't collect them which means it's not 100% technically

It doesn't affect the item-collection percentage, which is the agreed-upon standard for "100%."
