Tiso: hey elderbug Elderbug: yes, Tiso? Tiso: you know that bug that entered hallownest like... an hour ago? Elderbug: yes, what about him? Tiso: he just destroyed the f**king sun.
It took me three months to unlock AbsRad in the last pantheon and I've been grinding her for two weeks now without a single kill. At least I got to phase 5 two times.
Remember, he had months of practice for that one hour of speedrun. I'm sure if you try beating Radiance again, you will kill her(?) much faster than the first time.
I love how this run is almost exactly twice as long as the any% world record route. This ending requires much, much more, and yet it's been fine tuned to this point. Awesome
My run for the true ending, non speedrun was 100 hours.. though, i also did all the side quests. Like killing all dream bosses, i did Seer’s quest, squeezed all dialogue out of npcs, the grimme troupe quest, ect.
One grudge I've always held toward Chinese translation is they present the intent hidden rather than leaving the player guessing. In English it's much more subtle. In Chinese "no cost too great" becomes "No matter what cost, leave no room for mercy."
Yeah. Seems like all translations are kinda funky, since I play in spanish and while the dialogue is mostly accurate and sounds nice sometimes ive seen incorrect capitslization (for example with Grimmchild charm it doesnt capitalize Grimm, which is a name and should have a capital G) or something like in Quick Slash charm, which says something about imperfect nails that still "long to be wielded", as in they want to be used, but in spanish they use the word for long as in measurement: "they are still way too long to be wielded"
Played Hollow Knight in Russian translation. It is mostly very good, but, they perhaps cared more for text to apear beautiful and epic, than for actual information. So, they mistranslated the kingdom's egdge's lore tablet, making to search for mister mushroom in places, where he never was.
@@luxblitzar8718 I played Hollow Knight in Italian and while I haven't cross-checked the Italian translation specifically, I can totally see how a mistake like the one with the word "long" was made in Spanish and I find it hilarious
@@christytrisshoffner9697 it's called true ending because it's literally the true ending, by killing the radiance you also kill the infection, meaning that it's the true ending of everything, if you take the radiance to you the infection will never end and you will break at some point as you dont have the void heart, it's called the true ending because it's the true ending for the radiance and the infection
@@guaxinimdomato5825 What about pantheon 5 ending? Does that count as "true"? Radiance is dead and infection is gone but if you don't give delicate flower then the abyss will go on a rampage instead
Just incredible. This period of December 2019-January 2020 is quite great for speedrunning because TGH runned 202 berries too. Congratulations with world record!
So I thought that this was a NKG speedrun literally until time and was confused almost the whole way through with what was happening... never thought to check the title. Great run, grats on WR!
If you go up the shaft that has a lot of mushrooms in the background, you will eventually reach a room at the top that has a stag station in the upper left corner.
I just watched the SGDQ and previous WR speedruns a few weeks ago, and was just thinking to myself a couple days ago I'd like to see another WR pop up, thanks for that.
Okay this is really impressive good job! 👏 Also Team Cherry doesn’t call any of the endings “the true ending” all endings are canon, they said. But yeah doing the dream no more ending in almost an hour is incredible
@@monkeu2536 I know you're replying to this comment talking about the fight in general, with all the tools in the game available to you, but the TE Radiance fight is actually extremely difficult. Shade soul is obviously much harder than shriek to use against the Radiance, and only having five masks so a leeway of two hits really doesn't help. On top of that, you need to go fast with the pressure of losing an hour of progress if you die. What's in this video is still incredible
I might be in the minority, but I really don't love patch 1.2.2.1 runs. I think Team Cherry made some stupid decisions in intentionally removing skips in unnatural ways (like preventing you from hopping over to the Blue Lake early on your spirit), but I'd much rather see innovation in a game like HK than these constant grinds through old patches... Still, an incredible performance from Mon as always.
Wait, they removed that? Why? How is that skip more problematic than any other? You can still get the shade cloak before both the the crystal heart and the monarch wings... I know because I did that myself a few days ago.
Im honestly very glad that its in a language i'm not familiar with because than the dialogue is still new to me and interesting. Ive already gotten this ending, but i haven't gotten the pantheon ending. Although I have seen them do a play-through of all of the pantheons I am still new to the dialogue and can still experience it for myself one day.
Elderbug: "little one, the faith of the world rests on your shoulder. The path you will travel will be a long and treacherous one; which might take months, even years!! *One Hour and Six Minutes Latter* Elderbug: "WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!!"
After 2 hours tryng i gess I beat radiance for de First time (9 masks, 3 vessels, pure nail, unbrekable strenght, Quick slash and mark of pride) I almost died, and you do this with 5 masks, dude I'm Sad now
The guy could have just said nope to false knight because of the weak door but hey can’t blame him for taking half the time to beat the game then it took me to beat the radiance
seeing people saying "silksong when" in his chat and people responding with "soon this year" is funny cause this happened 2 years ago and still no silksong
Tiso: hey elderbug
Elderbug: yes, Tiso?
Tiso: you know that bug that entered hallownest like... an hour ago?
Elderbug: yes, what about him?
Tiso: he just destroyed the f**king sun.
bruh it's took me a month xd
@Garfield Lena lol so did u find smt ?
@Tahseen Rahman xD
Elderbug: what's the sun?
Imagine a kid showing up and 1 hour later theyre dragging the corpse of a god behind them
This guy spends one hour to get from the start to the true ending.
It took me over four hours just to kill The Radiance.
It took me three months to unlock AbsRad in the last pantheon and I've been grinding her for two weeks now without a single kill. At least I got to phase 5 two times.
Remember, he had months of practice for that one hour of speedrun.
I'm sure if you try beating Radiance again, you will kill her(?) much faster than the first time.
it took me four hours to know what i supost to do after hornet
These are the facts
You know what they say, third thousand times a charm

You didnt get the elderbug WR, all other categories are invalid
now i realise that my run for the true ending lasted 27 hours
Mine was 43.
It was a casual first playthrough.
My run for the true ending, non speedrun was 100 hours.. though, i also did all the side quests. Like killing all dream bosses, i did Seer’s quest, squeezed all dialogue out of npcs, the grimme troupe quest, ect.
My 1st speedrun attempt for true ending was 17 hours AMD this guy gets 1 hour watefac
my first casual playthrough was 43! (only really did it once)
Mine was about that same length.

So many minor mistakes and still got WR
Thats nuts
Congratz mate, here's to breaking the WR again! 🥂
Hornet : Noooooo, you can't just teleport from abyss and skip dialogue with me!!
Knight :Haha, menu go space-time travel
"This calls for a reset"
This didn't age well.
Aged like milk
So I thought that this was a NKG speedrun literally until time and was confused almost the whole way through with what was happening... never thought to check the title.
Great run, grats on WR!
He beats the game in an hour and I can't even get out of the city of tears
If you go up the shaft that has a lot of mushrooms in the background, you will eventually reach a room at the top that has a stag station in the upper left corner.
Took me 3 hours to figure that out. The city is confusing.
While he is an incedible speedrunner, he also seems like such a nice guy
The man,
The myth,
The LEGEND!
I can literally spend a weekend replaying this game in full and you did it in what used to be the record for an any% run
I love your work dude, a year ago you inspired me and i started learning to speedrun HK, a year later you still make me want to be better namaste dude
Oh shoot, just finished your 112% All Bosses speedrun and you post a true end speedrun! Nice.
I just watched the SGDQ and previous WR speedruns a few weeks ago, and was just thinking to myself a couple days ago I'd like to see another WR pop up, thanks for that.
My man parried his Shade's nail slash to sequence break! You ARE the pure vessel!
This dude finished the game in one hour...
*while my dumbass took 3 and a half hours to just beat nosk*
It me 2 hours to beat moth but it felt like 30 minutes
Okay this is really impressive good job! 👏
Also Team Cherry doesn’t call any of the endings “the true ending” all endings are canon, they said. But yeah doing the dream no more ending in almost an hour is incredible
There is only one ending that says "To be continue" which is actually one with flying mushroom.
Thats what the category is called, he didnt just name it on the spot, and also the category was named when there were only 3 endings in the game
jesus this is just turning into monstahler and fireb0rn fighting
I would have loved to see a race between them at AGDQ.
nomal player: oml radience is so hard
speedrunner: die moth

I mean it was kinda underpowered because of abyss shriek and spell twister but still a cool boss

Eyy ur back. Thanks for keeping the game alive for me :). Congrats on ur record too!
bruh i love speed runs. you turn to check your phone for a sec and they've completed the game
Now stop bullying hornet like that, she saved you from THK to an even harder boss.... Wait nvm, maybe she isn't the best bug in the kingdoms
Well done ! Also first time hearing your voice its way better with a commentary 😊
congratulations for the fast race, I respect your work a lot. your skills only prove how much you love the game. success!

Shouldn't he have been stunned by falling too far?
Read description
It's sort of rng if you get a hardfall or a softfall like I got there
Most of the times you get a hardfall, I just got lucky
@@MonStahLer
Thanks for explaining
After falling asleep two times in a row trying to watch this, I'm happy I finally did because this run was epic.

This Man Did In Fact Said Fuck You Hornet.
I have realized at the beggining in the chat someone said happy new year.
Now reading that in November is just like 👁️_👁️
This is some insane skills, very good jobb!
Good thing there's commentary. I hate watching wr run with no one talking
I’m honestly just happy he isn’t screaming every 2 seconds like lots of other streamers
@@sloopy5672 that too
20:51 that blowed up my mind. I haven't thought that there is a charm up there.
LOL at chat, it actually did sound like Hornet said "Git Gud" though
Anyone care to elaborate if this was intentional ? Or is it just our destroyed self esteem speaking
hey its a meme do you not know HK humor
nice to see you still running! grats

Hey, I saw your comment on the Fire vs Vys race
Psychiatrist: so where did your anxiety start?

Congratulations on the world record. You had a few small hiccups and some bad patterns but overall, it was an excellent run. Well done 👍🏻

Good to see you back!
"fuck you Hornet"

Don't matter who you are or what you are doing, skipping elderbug gives me the feels :(!
Unbelievable man I haven’t even encountered a few of these enemies, now I have to find them
Starting the new year off with a bang aren't we?
my god dude take a break from this game you've gotten like a billion WRs
My first play through (which I still haven’t beaten yet) has been going on 100 hours.. 😳
It took me a day to try to get out of forgotten crossroads
did you get cornifer map?
32:09 Umm I distinctly remember the the elevator to watcher knights being 2 floors above the sentry guy
this man did this in an hour, while im here with 7 hours trying to get more strength before actually doing the dream no more stuff 💀
'whats the hardest category'
your talking to the only runner to ever complete max % 0 geo
you speedrun true ending faster when i complete any on 2 min...
This mans be beating the game in an hour while i have my unfinished 30 hour save file...😞
imagine he took a detour to the path of pain just for the extra lore. either his speedrun would be ruined or he would boss it.
didn't say hi to elderbug so the run doesn't count
Everyone sub to this man right now or forever have your soul damned to Tartarus
Your crazy with the controls
我覺得我玩的遊戲跟你的好像是不同一款，你太強了
I have spent 10 hours in the game and I just got the lamp. I don’t know what order I did anything else in

What do you think the lowest time that can possibly ever be obtained for this run is?
If someone grinds the category enough, I think a sub 1:05 would be possible (assuming no new strats get discovered)
rip vysuals
But GG anyways!

True ending? Apologies if I'm wrong but isn't the true ending acquired after defeating Absolute Radiance in the Pantheon?
