It's interlaced. To go into specifics, the recordings from the new HD PVR are super interlaced but it's easy to fix through a couple settings in Sony Vegas. Looks like I forgot to switch the Deinterlace Method from "Blend Fields" to "Interpolate Fields". Forgetting to Disable Resample is bush league! Anyway, it's a new recording setup for me so there will be occasional growing pains. I've already tweaked my settings a lot since I've recorded this one and they are coming out much clearer.
I've been a sub since the year this video was posted, and now, at 2019, I can say this is one of your best showcases of great gameplay in all your career! Great Job! I'm glad to be a Fan! :D
I realise NL is probably never going to see this but in case he does, this episode isn't currently on the Spelunky playlist, if it could be added then that would be great :)
Just a few tips: 1)The giant frogs drop spring shoes sometimes, not every time you kill them. 2) The mammoths drop the freeze ray, again only sometimes, but it is a useful weapon after you use the Ank. (One hit kills Anubis 1 & 2) 3) YOU DON'T NEED TO DIE NEXT TO THE MOAI (Head that gives you Hedjet)
For the daring and agile, if the ghost passes over gems, it turns them into diamonds of higher value than what you would normally get for picking them up, even if they are in the ground. Doing this deliberately is known as Ghostrunning, and can result in astonishingly high scores.
3:22 Sacrifice damsels as much as possible! that was a really easy one. 4:25 There was no altar, but it's good to search the rest of the area first just in case. 5:15 Given your rope count, it was easy to check the keg area, and that was where the altar was. 13:28 You maybe count have gotten the emerald if you jumped from the ladder platform. 17:15 Another case of possible sacrifice. 24:15 LOL I might seem like a broken record. Sacrifice chance! 29:30 DON'T USE ROPES
The only reason I would ever consider not jumping into the abyss at this point is if I had a parachute and wanted to keep it. But most of the time, I just take the plunge.
NL, you make our lives more fun and easy, and help us get distracted from the bad stuff for once. We get back home and get to relax and recall that we have a sense of humor :) who told you that you don't contribute to society? your grama who wanted you to become a lawyer but would compromise for doctor?
Nice job Ryan! You've really progressed so far in the past few episodes. The ghost dodging and Olmec fight were impressive to say the least. You'll get to hell next episode! I know it.
...And that's why Ryan said on Twitter that this would be a much beloved run. Because he was off by a hair. And then a frog killed him for his insolence.
Yeah, it's the only one for PC. The XBLA version hasn't that much new stuff in it, mainly just graphics. I heard there is coming an update for the PC version though, but I'm not really sure.
To get to hell Olmec has to fall over the door so you can stand on his head and enter, even if the frog wasnt there you still would have missed the door.
This is still my favorite NL series but I just gotta ask. whats happeneing with borderlands 2 (I dont watch saving progress so if they mentioned it I wouldn't know)
NL, i highly reccomend that you use the temple shortcut to get some practice fighting olmec again. you should never have to use his stomps to get down to hell either, just lure him to the side and use your bombs to bomb a hole down
Man...he could have sacrificed the entire village to the goddess, Even monty and killed the rest and sacrificed again, he would have tons of life! Also, one thing he could do to save monty in the middle of the level is to put him into the worm tongue, he will be by the exit even he didn't walk inside with him.
I had 2 spectacular runs in a row (one was 70 paste bombs,jetpack and beating Olmec) and another was 60 paste bombs but missing the city of gold. It felt good to have that many bombs twice in a row though.
I wonder what his logic was as to not using any bombs to get to Hell instead of waiting for Olmec to do it for him. He made things so much harder on him :P
It would've been a hell of a lot less harrowing if you just had Olmec way off to the side where he would stop jumping, and used your TWENTY FIVE BOMBS to create a path to the door...
olmec needs to fall into the lava so you can use him as a platform to get in the door. so he cant just bomb down unless he blew a hole big enough for olmec
I don't get your obsession with the cape, NL. There is NO WAY you will be beating the final, final boss without a jet pack. TL;DR: NEVER INVEST IN A CAPE IF YOU CAN GET A JETPACK!

I guess I'm in for a good episode, hype!

there are some pretty hilarious monty deaths in this episode
Loved how you were able to evade the ghost to get the idol and monty as well as the udjat eye! Nice one!
That ghost evading on the first run. You made me proud, Northernlion. You made me proud...
This run made it really noticeable: Ryan really has gotten a lot better at Spelunky.
It's getting better all the time!
The description of the video made me think of my favorite band. Now i have to listen to musik after this....

I love the Dark Knight reference in the video description :)
yes he does
5:05 level needed Benny Hill music in the background.
Easily the best video of the series.
The "It smells like wet fur in here" level music is chill as fuck. I like it.
And now the best troll of the year: *drumroll* The frog from spleunky! *cheers*
Ah hell yeah
NL, you make our lives more fun and easy, and help us get distracted from the bad stuff for once. We get back home and get to relax and recall that we have a sense of humor :)
who told you that you don't contribute to society? your grama who wanted you to become a lawyer but would compromise for doctor?
it would have been hilarious if the frog was not there and he just jumped into the lava XD
NL: "...our beautiful dog friend here."
Me: "Wow, he actually treated Monty with some respect there"
NL: *Throws Monty right on the spikes
Classic NL lmao
Wow, that was actually a pretty good run. Was really fun to watch. ^^
the pvr capture is so nice and smooth x3
Flawless? Wow, that makes me feel special. Though, once I got the hang of it, it wasn't all that difficult to repeat.
Nice job Ryan! You've really progressed so far in the past few episodes. The ghost dodging and Olmec fight were impressive to say the least. You'll get to hell next episode! I know it.
"Don't be an idiot and like...mine that rock and accidentally hurt yourself" - The Northernlion Story
so many chance to sacrifice all that good stuff just flying by
Lol that frog was so "That's what you get for killing my ancestor in the jungle"
Lmao
17:54 I refuse to believe that pun was not intended...
...And that's why Ryan said on Twitter that this would be a much beloved run. Because he was off by a hair. And then a frog killed him for his insolence.

Well, there's my laughter done for the month.
"Maybe tried a little too hard on that one." - The Northernlion Story
To get to hell Olmec has to fall over the door so you can stand on his head and enter, even if the frog wasnt there you still would have missed the door.
Finaly Ryan, you are making long videos!
one in a million shot doc!
was that from the proctologist episode?
i cried at the end
I saw this episode's time and assumed it was a failure compilation. WHAT LITTLE DID I KNOW
29:20 he uses 3 ropes and a bomb to kill himself... wow Northernlion.
Well done northernlion you bought a cape on the black market when you had enough for a jetpack!
remember that olmec has to be right underneath the door to hell for you to get in, not just being next to it.
60 episodes and you still don't know that you can throw things up.
This is still my favorite NL series but I just gotta ask. whats happeneing with borderlands 2 (I dont watch saving progress so if they mentioned it I wouldn't know)
that wasn't why i chuckled, if you don't get it, it's probably for the best
NL, i highly reccomend that you use the temple shortcut to get some practice fighting olmec again. you should never have to use his stomps to get down to hell either, just lure him to the side and use your bombs to bomb a hole down
awww dude that is all the sadness. i want to see this happen!
You're getting better
Woaaaah the altar in the first jungle level... you couldve sacrificed like TEN dudes on it...
Man...he could have sacrificed the entire village to the goddess, Even monty and killed the rest and sacrificed again, he would have tons of life!
Also, one thing he could do to save monty in the middle of the level is to put him into the worm tongue, he will be by the exit even he didn't walk inside with him.
26:29 i chuckled a bit when he said that.
Thinking "Oh my god he's an idiot " 17:22 "we are going to have to use a rope because I'm an idiot.
I completely agree at 24:11 !
Episode 58: The Northernlion Story.
THIS IS THE RUN
liked this just for the "you fool" part
Frog,you saved us all.
Most exciting episode yet O_O
At least all that running now has some sense of speed to it, motion blur and stuff like that. The effect that look that bad.
As yen50414 said, he acts as the floor to the door above the lava
yes
He's not trying to beat the final boss, he's trying to get to Hell.
I had 2 spectacular runs in a row (one was 70 paste bombs,jetpack and beating Olmec) and another was 60 paste bombs but missing the city of gold. It felt good to have that many bombs twice in a row though.
That frog trolled the hell out of you.
Murder frog!
7:08-7:21 you read my mind, but it's okay, no harm done.
The frog of doom
The frog was like, oh no you didn't
He already did that once by accident and said oh i guess i can save my time from now on... guess not
Somebody once told me the world was gonna roll me.
Jake Bomb ok...
That frog just fucked his day up
He wouldn't have been able to go in anyway, Olmec wasn't actually in front of the door.
So freaking close!! I can not believe it. I dont understand how your controller is in one piece after that!!
Best of luck next time!
Way better episode then 57!
AHAHAHAHAH DAFUQQQQQ you are the unluckiest guy in Spelunky xD
Lmao poor guy.
Twice too!
You can win more than one item from the gambling dude, as long as you continually win the item.
why is all of northenlions comments hate and omg why didnt you do that..... Pls be happy of the content he is giving
Twitter told me this would be a fan fav, hope it's true :)
It is!
Can you keep your equipment if you jump into the abyss instead of dieing from fall-damage?
At 20:05 I was thinking "USE THE FUCKING CORPSES TO SACRIFICE TO THE ALTAR"
Damn man! You missed a really big sacrifice chance on the first jungle level, Kali is not happy!
I wonder what his logic was as to not using any bombs to get to Hell instead of waiting for Olmec to do it for him. He made things so much harder on him :P
dog murder ahahahha lol
i feel the need to report you to PETA for all the monty slaughter in this video lol
Frogs the troll engine made flesh.
It would've been a hell of a lot less harrowing if you just had Olmec way off to the side where he would stop jumping, and used your TWENTY FIVE BOMBS to create a path to the door...
agreed
Dat frog man. Dat frog.
five sacrifices 5 hearts
That goddamn frog!
nah, i'm pretty sure olmec has to form a platform to stand on to get into the hell door. so the chance was gone anyway
It doesn't matter he got to the boss with plenty of ropes and bombs.
which is what the guy was saying he should do
olmec needs to fall into the lava so you can use him as a platform to get in the door. so he cant just bomb down unless he blew a hole big enough for olmec
NL just because you fall into the abyss or on spikes doesnt mean you wont get into the head!
God Northernlion! You are cursed never to go to hell!
Oh-My-Fucking-God... SO CLOSE!
OH CMON why?!? This end was just unfair my heart was pounding the whole olmek fight
I don't get your obsession with the cape, NL. There is NO WAY you will be beating the final, final boss without a jet pack. TL;DR: NEVER INVEST IN A CAPE IF YOU CAN GET A JETPACK!
