[WR] Ori Will of the Wisps 100% speedrun in

[@Freekywill]

Just finished 100% this game on hard and I must say this is my favorite game of all time. The art and music and story and gameplay, it's all just so perfect

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

same here, it's my favourite ever game! i am in love with the movement

[@greenheart5334]

I didnt finish yet and it already is best game i ever played.

[@greenheart5334]

Just came back to say i finished it twice. Best game ever for me so far, but might be topped by upcoming Psychonauts 2. I don't know, it looks absolutely insane on current gameplays, but who knows how would it end up?

[@Nova5s]

Even better than Hollow Knight?

[@tooth2887]

47:39 that entire sequence is supposed to have the enemy be partially visible the entire thing I believe, but you did it so fast I barely even saw the thing. y'all speedrunners got SKILL and it is awe inspiring.

[@Ray-Zide]

Amazing run!

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

thank you!!

[@adamwood7743]

It was the glitch at 33:10 that explained everything to me. How did you get Launch so quickly? Now I know!

[@HoobriBoobri]

this plaing was awesome so nice video!

[@anthomeeko]

Jesus.. very impressive dude. You'Ve got them Moves O.o !!!

[@yougetagoldstar]

Just so you know, you can just say, "very impressive dude. You'Ve got them Moves O.o !!!" and convey the same message. No need to misuse the name of Jesus as though it's a word you can just use to express yourself and attach no more meaning as though it has no greater meaning. You should find it curious that people constantly misuse the words "God" "Jesus" and "holy". If you want better reasons why you shouldn't misuse those words, read the one book that can tell us what those words stand for and why they are sacred: the Bible. Such words were not created so that we can merely use them as expletives or intensifiers. If you wouldn't strip your mother's name of all meaning and significance by using it as a mere expletive, you shouldn't do so to the name of Jesus. If this offends you, just think of it as friendly advice. The bad habit of misusing the words I listed has always generated that kind of response from those who know why those words are sacred, and you happened to adopt that bad habit. And so whenever people take on that bad habit and someone corrects them, they think, "What? Why is this person scolding me? Everyone speaks this way." But that happened because they took on a bad habit thinking there was nothing wrong with it. You probably didn't even know what you were doing when you took on that bad habit, but you just adopted it because you heard people do it so many times as though there was nothing wrong with it. But it's important to know that it's possible for a lot of people to start doing bad things. It's possible for them to do those bad things with no shame whatsoever and that can cause people to think that there is nothing wrong with those bad things. But that's just the act of mistakenly equating someone's wicked comfort with doing bad things to the notion that those things are now okay if someone feels comfortable doing them. That's an incorrect way to determine whether something is right or wrong. It would actually speak well of your character for resist the pressure to do as you see what other people do.

​@@yougetagoldstarbro made a whole essay to reply to a KZbin comment

[@nathanielyao3525]

You're crazy.

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

[@CraftMojo777]

How did you got launch so early? Do we need all 3 wisps so we can proceed? The path has been blocked by a large rock.

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

So the way that works is using a trick called Feeding Grounds Skip. By making sure to either land pretty far into Feeding Grounds OR by not landing at all, it's possible to skip the cutscene that starts the stealth section. If you do this, Shriek never calls down the large rock, and you can go to Willow Tree early I do this at 33:10 in the video If you have any more questions let me know!

[@jdp_ee]

you got me wanting to buy this game it looks so pretty

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

It's my favourite ever game

[@vulblhotdiessfi]

I am painfully late and just got this for my birthday, but KZbin doesn't do this game justice XD. the graphics on highest setting with 144fps is an experience like no other, even looking at 1080P makes me sad

[@xanschneider]

@@vulblhotdiessfi Graphics?? what makes me sad is how he jumps with the attack jump combo thing which I didn't even know existed, and me, all my life jumping like a regular guy.

[@AlejandroLamKhoa]

I'm a big fan of your speedruns. Great WR! I really enjoy how fast you kill the bosses, especially Kwolok and Mora.

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

Thank you! That's cool to hear =] Yeah, in 100% you kind of just annihilate the bosses haha, it's fun

[@AlejandroLamKhoa]

Skarfelt are you going to do the 100% on hard mode as well? I was wondering what the differences are between the normal and hard mode and if you expect certain sections to be dealt differently in hard mode.

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

@@AlejandroLamKhoa I'm not sure, I'm not super interested right now. Main reason is that stuff costing more on Hard mode means you have to grind for Spirit Light to be able to afford all of Opher's weapons for it to count for 100%, and that's just not super interesting. It would be cool to fight the bosses in a different way, though. There is a category called OWLS (i forget what the O means, but basically it's just getting all the Wisps without spending Lights or getting Shards), and that's played on Hard mode. I'm somewhat interested in that, but I'm still gonna play 100% Normal for a while to see how good I can get my time

[@AlejandroLamKhoa]

@@TeslaSkarfelt that category sounds super interesting. whatever you choose, I'd be looking forward to it. awesome stuff!

[@willdieinsun3454]

I absolutely love Ori and have been interested in learning this speedrun for a while but I'm honestly not quite sure where to start, do you have any recommendations as to where to start learning some tricks while playing? Absolutely amazing run!

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

thank you so much! The first place to go is speedrun.com. In the guides/resources tabs on the left, you'll find a bunch of different things for help getting into different categories - I personally have guides for both Main Quest Order and Any%, and there are guides for other categories too. www.speedrun.com/ori_wotw For 100% specifically, there's no full guide available, but there is a route document available in the Discord. In general, the Discord is extremely useful, as people are always happy to welcome new runners. discord.com/invite/aSz79M4 Also, I'll be doing a marathon run of 100% in just over a week. For that run, I'll be explaining how everything works as I get to it, so that may or may not be helpful to you. If you have any more questions, please lmk =]

[@TINYTINEY]

Hey i can’t get the route document because I’m not allowed to have discord and I have a Xbox one and I’m not quite sure how to record speed runs on there. Like do I need a timer and if so how in the world do I get it?

[@Nat_the_Chicken]

@@TINYTINEY Bit late, curious if you ever figured any of this out and did any runs. But I believe in order to submit a valid run to the leaderboards, you'd have to use a capture card, route it into a PC, and run your video recording and speedrun timer programs on there. At that point it's probably worth just getting your hands on a PC copy of the game, especially since I believe there are less annoying glitches than on console. Either that, or just speedrun the game for yourself and see how low you can get the time on your file.

[@xqzyu]

Hey I was wondering, at around 29:00 how or why does ku show up to where you can get on her? You can’t get off right?

[@veljkojankovic3718]

9:54 how did you jump like that?

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

pressing Sentry and Up Slash on the same frame will make you rocket into the air like that, it's called a "Sentry Jump"

[@veljkojankovic3718]

@@TeslaSkarfelt its fascinating that you can do that move at the beggining of the game

[@gameandmore-1]

crazy and classy

[@Alianger]

9:53 Is that still in the game? How is it done?

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

Yup! If you press Up Slash and Sentry on the same frame, Ori rockets into the air. It's actually very easy, hence it being the main movement tech That's only grounded, though - in the air, you have to do Sentry then Up Slash exactly 3 frames later, which is a lot more difficult, so we tend to avoid that unless necessary

[@Alianger]

@@TeslaSkarfelt Interesting, I'll have to play around with this. I'm on my first playthrough still and was curious about sequence breaking.

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

@@Alianger Ah yeah, this is a very powerful sequence breaking tool for sure lol. Generally the game still won't let you do stuff MASSIVELY out of order due to story triggers you need to hit, but there's a few that can be bypassed that allow you to break the game (hence Any% is 25 minutes No Out of Bounds, and 15 with clips) Hope you enjoy your playthrough though! This game is a joy to play =]

[@Alianger]

@@TeslaSkarfelt Thanks, really enjoying it so far. I was honestly a bit skeptical about a more combat focused and hollow knight inspired sequel to Ori 1 but it's great so far. Will get back to your run when I'm done. :)

[@Indoor_Carrot]

How do you do that long jump trick with the flame torch at the beginning?

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

If you just spam Up Slash with the torch, Ori will basically hover and not lose height

[@bens9422]

How do you run all over thorns and not take damage

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

It's a glitch called "Godmode" that I set up at 23:50. If you drown, and then hold Bash during the drowning animation, you become fully invincible until the next time you either Quit to Menu or Bash again

[@FrankDag]

26:00 no idea how you're not dying here.

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

It's a glitch called "Godmode" that I set up at 23:50. If you drown, and then hold Bash during the drowning animation, you become fully invincible until the next time you either Quit to Menu or Bash again

[@nathanreeder9716]

you might already know this, but you can break some barriers from the opposite side. I found this out in my first time playing, I thought the game was bugged and that was how you were supposed to do it xD. (Use spirit smash/hammer btw)

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

Ah yeah, we had a vote and decided it was considered out of bounds, so it's banned in this category. 100% Easy is played without that rule, though, so those runs will break barriers from the other side like in Wellspring (they normally use the Shuriken as it's the fastest way to do it)

[@omfkew]

wow how do you jump so high :O

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

it's this real cool trick! so if you stay up until 6am then randomly decide to do a hundo run anyway, it lets you jump high! hope this helps

[@Nat_the_Chicken]

@@TeslaSkarfelt Reading all your helpful explanations in the other replies and then seeing this made me snort loudly

[@cold_stone22]

how do you that sentry jump while in the air? the ground is quite easy, but the airborne version, i still couldn't get it.

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

For the aerial version, you have to press Sentry, then press Up Slash 3 frames later. It's frame perfect so quite hard, so I typically don't go for it unless it's necessary

[@cold_stone22]

@@TeslaSkarfelt just figured it out. thanks bro. and also, is that a glitch that becomes invincible by bashing before you died by drowning?

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

@@cold_stone22 Yeah, that's called Godmode. Basically you drown, and then as you're in the drowning animation, use Bash. You'll be invincible until you either Bash again or Quit to Menu. If you want, I can send you a link to the full route for 100% in the Discord (I think the Discord is in the video description)

[@Nat_the_Chicken]

@@TeslaSkarfelt Proud of myself for figuring out how godmode works just from watching this run. When you were in mouldwood and accidentally lost it, I noticed a minute later, then remembered you commenting on it ("I think we're still fine") before the shrine, so I tried to guess what canceled it and realized it must have been accidentally bashing. I figure when you bash during an extended death, a flag is set that you're mid-bash, and that's what makes you invincible until you bash again and the flag is reset. I had also already guessed that qtm reset it earlier because warping didn't, that means it's not fast to do the whole run with it on because you have to watch most of the cutscenes. Neat stuff.

[@warcatbattalion]

how were you able to swim through murky water?

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

There's a glitch called Godmode which makes you invincible. Basically, as you drown, Bash off an enemy. Until you Bash again or Quit to Menu, you're now fully invincible. It's why I go back to the Regenerate tree just before that.

[@lassebrun84]

How in the hell do you jump so high with the sword???

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

It's a trick called a "Sentry Jump". I have a movement guide available here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHbWmJikq8elbpo&ab_channel=Skarfelt

[@lassebrun84]

@@TeslaSkarfelt thanks

[@fogstorm5531]

Why do you quit to the main screen and then continue?

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

Ori uses a loadless timer, which means that it takes out all time spend loading. This includes time quitting to the main menu, so sometimes it's quicker to do that rather than watching a cutscene

[@lilflamel5237]

01:11:31 chinese ?

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

if you quit to menu very quickly after loading in, it overlays all the title screens on top of each other, and the Chinese one is the most clear

[@Acyris]

Is Sentry Jump a bug?

[@TeslaSkarfelt]

It was something unintended that was found during testing, but they left it in cuz they thought it was cool
