I just want to remind everyone: there's a much nicer video of this same speedrun available here: ua-cam.com/video/rbQj5NiQ4L8/v-deo.html Also with commentary, with fixed font, and 50fps instead of 25fps!
not sure how good a place this is to ask, but......... is there a possibility of Final Fantasy XAT being put up for download again? all the links are dead
@@fweged4353 Oh wow, amazing that you remember that. Yeah, we have the download for that, we're planning to put it up again. I'm not sure if you are an old GW/Gaming World member but if you join the Discord ( discord.gg/Ysy8TSNYVP ) I'll get you a link to it when it's uploaded
35:10 It entertains me greatly to notice that both Super Metroid and Cave Story have an item-guarding miniboss that's skippable by just exiting the room fast enough.
I actually really liked this. I watched all of it. I usually don't like TAS, but I really appreciate you putting in the silly comments and extra pointless shootings to be an entertainer rather than just a showoff.
The nature of TAS is to be a showoff. That's where the entertainment comes from lol. Still, you're right about him doing a really good job of making it more entertaining than most TAS. This is still my favorite TAS video to this day.
@@PastelPiku yeah, anyways there's that kind of TASes that are literally showoffs, "playaround" i think they are called Btw mind linking your pfp? I like it
To whoever posted about the 4th ending being a possible TAS goal: sorry, I accidentally deleted your message. (Clicked the wrong link, UA-cam didn't ask for confirmation and I can't undelete it because this site is horrible.) But in any case, the infamous 4th ending is a mod. The video describing it as being real was an elaborate April Fools joke. It's a very well constructed mod, though.
There should be some "Let's TAS" channel where they make commentary TAS like this. I love how this dude explain why he does this and that when most TAS-er don't
"I wish Quote could carry more dogs at once." Wish granted, that's now in the Switch version! Also, you can skip cutscenes to make them go faster, making the Switch version the definitive Cave Story experience.
That was a really good move on the part of the person who made the April Fools joke, because it instantly rebutted everybody who actually took the time to try (and found it to be fake). It's called "moving the goalposts". Since 17 minutes is almost impossibly difficult, virtually undoable without TAS tools, no one could test it anymore. Even the SDA speedrunners, literally the world's best gamers, were about 6 minutes too late. So the 17 minutes thing was just a trick, and it worked really well.
Thank you. I kept seeing people saying they like the commentary and it says commentary in the title but I didn't hear or see any text so I thought the poster took out the commentary.
Awesome and fun to watch. I always admire the amount of work and skill that is put into TASes like these, and the author's comments were a nice bonus. When even the creator of the game is impressed, you know you did a good job!
The movement with both the Machine Gun and Booster is like watching an elegant choreography, it almost makes me wish the Booster 2.0 was unlocked sooner to see how you could've glided through earlier sections of the game.
At 13:50 the player switches to the rocket launcher at the last second to make it look like Quote just blew the door down with his gun. Wonderful touches that make this playthrough awesome!
This is one of my all time favourite TAS videos (other favourites being Super Mario 64 "0 star" and Super Mario World "96 exits") and also one of my all time favourite games so it makes me really happy that this was the first ever TAS of a windows game at tasvideos
I had no idea what this game was. I dont understand a letter of japanese/kanji but your comentaries made it just as entertaining as a MMX TAS, a game which i love and know inside and out. I wish more TAS players used it to describe the tricks they use, otherwise its easy to mistake damage taken for randomness when in fact it is extremely calculated. Thanks!
They're probably talking about the Mimiga mask ending (which is a separate achievement in the Steam version). It's not the ending you're talking about, that one's definitely a mod. A very cool one for sure, but TAS runs are generally only made from original, unmodified versions of the game. See x.co-wA24 and x.co-wA2C (replace - with /) for more information.
It goes one further than slow motion, the game is paused and they play the game frame by frame and imput commands on the frames that are needed accordingly for the 'perfect play'. They also use savestates to overwrite any mistakes, anywhere, at anytime.
I think my favorite part of this by far would have to be the fifth dog. Like Quote just shows up at this frail old lady’s house, sees that she’s been beaten to a pulp, steals her dog, and runs off in a murderous rampage
The interesting thing I've found about the soundtracks (Original vs. Remastered) is that people who started with the original game prefer the normal mixes whereas those who started on the 3DS, on Steam (post-remastered-OST patch) or by just hearing just the music (e.g via YT) prefer Remastered. They're both great, and differ substantially in some regards, so to each their own. I guess the one thing fans of each -can- agree on, however, is their distaste for (most of?) the Remixed soundtrack...
It really is astounding just to what level this person has mastered the game. Even if I got to a really good level where I could easily beat the game without dying, the author of this would still be on an entirely different level.

TheSuckerOfTheWorld Yup.
The Bomb Torizo or the Golden Torizo? It's been so long since I played Super, I can't remember which one.

A lot faster...

I love how you rampage through everything like a boss

Pretty sure that's just a Cave Story+ feature, I know I did it on steam and it may have even been possible on the enhanced version for the Wii.
@@TheTrueNehme nope. ive tried to hold multiple dogs on pc cave story +. it failed me
"Quote murdered Toroko!"

this is my favorite TAS i've seen so far. i've watched it all the way through at least three times.
It looks really fun to use the unlimited booster.

For those of you wondering about where the commentary is...

I realized that 7 min into the video.
Thank you. I kept seeing people saying they like the commentary and it says commentary in the title but I didn't hear or see any text so I thought the poster took out the commentary.
I'll be honest, I've watched this way to much. About 5 times its so good

Epic dialogue time save at 4:00
I really enjoy watching TASes in general, but the commentary on this one made it top-notch. Incredible job.
this is honestly one of the all-time great TASes for me
16:16 *C R A P F I R E B A L L !*
42:21 to 43:06 pretty much sums up the whole video
The commentary delivered here makes it always the most entertaining Cave Story TAS to watch
That commentary is a really nice touch. Great speedrun all in all.
Congratulations, you have successfully owned Cave Story. I can't even beat it without time constraints...
Holy crap! So many shots fired! Taking hits to your advantage, and you killed (mostly) every boss really fast! I give this 10 tas' out of 10 tas'
I love the commentary, probably the best and most informative tas I've erver watched. Thanks for sharing.
Wow. The commentary makes the TAS that more awesome.

The part where he got the fireball and switched between the two weapons was priceless
the final cave .... its like he didnt think the ogre boss existed
Yee
epic TAS, well done sir. and i wish every TAS had commentary that was as useful and funny!

Amazing to see Cave Story played like this...
I never even considered multiple weapons at the same time!
Awesome TAS!
thanks to you i was able to get the best ending...i used your video as a walkthrough
No Polar Star tho :(
@@Quickness_Fitness well the spur isn't necessary, but yea it does feel wrong to not go for spur in a best ending run.
Well it's more than I was ever expecting from a Cave Story TAS. Well done.
its been years but i come back to this video, its very satisfying to watch
This is truely an amazing TAS
i always go back to this tas every year. I really like it.
If all the killer robots were like this, then I can see why everybody would be afraid of them.
Yes
that shoulder pumping comment is GOLDEN, especially for someone who loves both Cave Story and Super Metroid
Man, I love the little notes you add, more TAS runners should do that.
This just might be my favourite TAS ever. Of all time.
First CS speedrun I've seen
Game still amazes me after all these years
This is a tool assisted speedrun. You should look at the WR best ending speedrun by periwinkle. It's a 55:47
Dude help, i watch this more than 10x in a day
Holy sheet you're maybe that Arthur?

every TAS game never failed to amuse me XD
My jaw completely dropped in the last cave run.
TAS really shows you the true reactions a robot like Quote should have
actual menace.
I'd be dead at 0:20
The CC commentary is hilarious.
42:16
Wait that’s illegal
Commentary and the fact that all 3 levels of the blade have an use, are very interesting. I

Imagine if cave story had a speedrun mode were you only have 1 chance, you cant die or else your time wont count, and the timer is automatically on
Looks like Quote got aimbot installed
Thanks for the autor's comments.
Sue's got the teleportation glitch DOWN. Just goes to show how Mimigas are the best speedrunners.
This was prolly as entertaining as the speedruns of sonic 3 and knuckles run. Good showmanship.
so much subtle stuff in this. props
Great TAS, and great commentary. I just wish some of it hadn't gone by so fast, it was hard to read quick enough.
This video has the highest resolution I've ever seen.
29:59 "Boss: Airlock Door #4 HP:40" I laughed way too hard at this
one of the speedruns I've been looking forward too
It takes much longer to reverse your course horizontally in mid-air, which he'd have to do if he didn't land there for a brief moment.
Having a machine gun doesn’t matter when you have the power of button mashing
