[@Fenrirmaster30]

This and Super Metroid are so fun to watch speedruns of, so glad that the Super Metroid Impossible run that Oats did at GDQ a few years ago appeared in my suggestions one day and got me interested in watching speedruns more

[@spaceonisorceress4406]

Yeah they're gonna have to change the name of that one to Super Metroid Improbable.

[@SebastianMikulec]

Oats just casually OBLITRATING the WR on his first try. No big deal.

[@ArtemisWasHere]

Well, everyone is focusing on normal mode, the hard mode records are not as impressive as the normal mode records Oatsngoats regularly runs normal mode and has the world record for a while So hmm attempting hard mode and getting the record is simple

[@hellboy19991]

@@ArtemisWasHere nobody runs hardmode because it doesn't offer anything interesting. 0% is arguably the most interesting because it necessitates no-hit gameplay since everything from the midgame onwards just oneshots

[@RealLockheedMartin]

@@deadrabbit7418 0% is no optional items acquired. No tanks, no missiles, etc. That means you have 99 HP and one health bar.

[@NarutoUzumaski]

[@choconatic]

Anyone else crack up laughing at the "heavy left foot" part at 42:48 ? Samus looked so ridiculous, I can't believe that's an official animation! 🤣

[@ElZamo92]

That was actually not animated manually, that is what we call “inverse kinematics”. The way it works is that the environment moves the limbs. In this instance the foot isn’t moving the switch, but the other way around. What makes the switch start to go down is for Samus to be in contact with it, so one foot is enough to start the switch animation which in turn animates the foot. Do not ask me how I know this since I have never ever in my life animated anything other than maybe a flip book in the corner of a notebook.

14:08 - How was the handsome runner described? Dashing!

[@chanceneck8072]

Holy shnykes! This should be world record by a long shot. The top ranked hard mode time currently is a 1:27 !

[@marcoscabezolajr.8408]

My best record is actually on Hard mode. 02:10:03

[@MikeMassey1983]

Cool.

[@Zyborggian]

Hahahah another streamer I know 66Samus says Holy shnykes a lot

[@josephhawkins7974]

I kinda love that you keep talking about this as a meme category and then ten seconds later talk about how crazy the damage you're taking is.

[@jotarobogard]

This man really beat the previous WR by over 10 minutes

[@chrisandrew7577]

I just beat the game yesterday. Took me over 10 hrs and I'm stoked for run number 2

[@SubliminalXIII]

KEEPIN THE DREAD DREAM ALIVE!! The G.O.A.T, is always OatsnGoats!

[@RodH-pj1py]

Hahaha the roach song while samus rides the train got me

[@FelipeWalker2]

Oats, I usually don't comment on these, but this is bar none the hypest fucking shit I've *EVER* seen when it comes to any Metroid speedruns. Is every Any% run like this?????? I was glued to the screen since the beginning. The movement in this is out of this world.

[@francescodibuono6344]

This was amazing! Congrats!

[@EnormousKingCrab]

Oats you should start every wr run with you talking about how your pickle was hanging out

[@nicke.8622]

Samus' movements are so mesmerising

[@Feever1999]

Now that the Dread difficulty has been released since the 2/10/22 direct, are you ready to challenge yourself in achieving a world record without getting hit once? 😏

[@willkra]

The masher strikes back! Nice run Oats!, but kind of dissapointing that hard mode doesn`t offer more.

[@willkra]

The run was actually amazing! Commented too early. Relatively seen probably the strongest MD run this far(all categories included).

[@marcoscabezolajr.8408]

Hard is true to its name when it comes to bosses. Golzuna has an attack that does 6 energy tanks of damage!

[@King_Firebrand]

You love to see it! Congrats Oats.

[@WhiteboyUltima]

Congrats Oas!

[@chrismyghostwriter]

Holy shit, dude! That was amazing!

[@joebeezy9471]

Holy hell Oats!!! Awesome run!

[@bdhdr4226]

What's the time difference in grabbing the missile+ in burenia vs doing shinespark there and grabbing the missile+ in gavhoran after supers? I prefer shinespark strat in burenia so I like how you do it, just curious if the time comes out similar.

[@forgiveman]

I have just finished played Dread for the first time, so I am now checking speedruns of it.

[@darksoulist5945]

Shout out to the guy that incoming hard wr not even 2 minutes in lol

[@sagen888]

Keep rollin' rollin' rollin'

[@Quasicrystal37]

Woah. Truly the goat!

[@psychotheunsane4542]

Hard difficulty only doubles the damage enemies deal. They still go down in the same number of hits as on normal. If there were a "Dread" difficulty, it would halve the damage you deal to enemies, as well as retain their doubled damage to you. Better stock up on at least 100 missiles for Raven Beak...

[@user-xl8cg1bz1f]

I just heard "A new record" in smash bro voice 😆

[@milktea8287]

Sorry you probably get this question a lot but how do you not take heat damage at 26:20 ? I can't seem to find any info on this

[@justdave9610]

Gg oatsandgoats nice run man

[@Faxanadu_]

Congrats, sir

[@atlys258]

lmfao that proposed "nightmare mode" is quite an interesting p2w model 😂

[@Ilovewatchingsupernaturalparan]

I love this game sooo much.

[@TheRealVyke]

My hard mode time is better than my normal mode time

[@mattmatter5643]

Here I am flying around ravensbeak rapid fire, when I could just fire back or stand still lol

[@Ilovewatchingsupernaturalparan]

Samus becomes sooo dangerous as the game goes on.

[@Metafluxx]

Epic WR Oats ! Hope to catch you live on twitch again soon.

[@waynetemplar2183]

New world record? Congratulations Mr Oats.

[@tobi_versace]

The turbo controller was a good idea

[@neochozo]

Jesus, WR by 12 minutes? Goddamn. Congrats Oats!

[@brycemattson4913]

Makes sense. Nobody can match your mash, so more enemy health means you’ll excel

[@brycemattson4913]

Wait do the bosses actually have more health? Or is it just more damage? Doesn’t look like extra health as I’m watching

[@tehquiper6796]

These techs are making my jaw drop... pls stop before I contact a physician

[@chesterstone2024]

nice time:)

[@jetzzfan]

KRYSPX at 1:43 called it

[@SharkXOmega]

So, we've literally gotten to the point where every main boss in the game is skipped huh? I don't even think Super Metroid ever pulled that off.

[@JC-zn4pk]

FASTER OATS, DEATHLESS, BREATHLESS

[@consolemaster]

Metroid and Castlevania plays quite similar

[@murmirr]

[@SolidusSnapes]

So happy oats got a wr in dread. Immortalised. Has he got one in normal mode tho?

[@justdave9610]

He had it for about a day recently

[@eggsaladman9]

He has had the normal any% record, but not at this moment. All the records have changed hands quite a bit since the game is new and more tricks are being found.

[@danielberrett2179]

Congrats. lets see how long it stands!

[@leafypotatostyle]

What’s your favorite color of soup?

[@ammakko]

I only have 20 min, can you finish the game in 20 in plz?

[@joebeezy9471]

How did your first attempt at invincibility not work? Weird

[@Lastratio]

Damn this man playing like he uses TAS

[@patrickfarrell7963]

Congratulations! I know other people are going to be gunning to take the world record from you which is to be expected. I'm looking forward to a stronger number so not only will you end up creating a world record in the future you will create one that will Mount you on that first place pedestal for a good solid amount of years. Dream big or DreamSMP as I like to tell my son just to mess with him (my son acts like he's insulted when I say this to him)

[@nevanito]

I have one question about this games speedruns that I never understood. Why do runners reset from boss 3 times?

[@Zeldarino]

It's to reset the melee counter tutorial flag to set up the camera lock glitch for early screw attack.

[@GoldenG00s300]

Future GDQ run? 🤔🤔

[@HolyNickTheHobbit]

So dies anyone know if spamus100 ate the shoe like he said he would

[@shaoronmd]

You always say that you don't use turbo, but how come you never record a video of your hands pressing the button really fast? It would take you literally seconds to make a clip to debunk the accusations. Just stand up for a second during one of your streams and showcase your button spam so a viewer can clip it.

[@Oatsngoats]

Already did. We joke about this shit like 500 times a stream because i've shown it so many times and have a clip showing how I mash but you know... looking for that takes effort.

[@MrCharly780]

Its a meme on his stream, he has shown he can mash like a madman. Also congrats on the record Oas!

the only thing i would like to change add to metroid dread iz....when you charge your beam and or go into a spin jump you can simply touch the enemy to kill them if they are weak enuf....hence you dont need to shoot beam cannon in spin jump

I think he means it would be good if you could just charge up your beam and run into weak enemies to kill them or just spin jump into them without doing any beam charging (a bit like Mario does but without the spin). That's not the Metroid way as it has to be charge the beam plus spin jump to kill enemies aka the pseudo screw attack

[@markroyds23]

Do these speed runs count if you're just exploiting glitches 🤣

Yes. There are many different categories of speedruns for pretty much every game.
