the real hero of this run...is the commentary. man, that spitfire commentary that's actually very insightful, close to no mispronounciations and minimal ums while keeping up with the tempo of tasbot is just more amazing than some of the speedruns I've seen
I logged in UA-cam just to comment, "i don't understand why people enjoy watching things like TASBOT," but after reading your comment I have a better understanding.
I read this comment before the video, and was like pfff. Yea another exaggerated comment... glad to see I was wrong, he was crystal clear to understand while maintaining a high speed of commentary to keep up with the gameplay wow.
@@casualcgrain7835: Outside the context of TAS, "Real Time Attack" means not using the in-game timer (and in fact, most speedruns are RTA). In the context of TAS, "Real Time Attack" means normal (non-TAS) speedrun.
RTA means timing method. For example, take classic Sonic games. In-game time runner would go as fast as possible, finish a level under 30 seconds and wait for gigantic countdown of bonus points. RTA runner would wait for 30 seconds on timer to not get that point bonus. TAS could target both.
When the bot desync, they were really chill about it! If it was me, in front of all that crowd, and a device of mine failed in front of everyone, I would've started to panic immediately. Those guys can talk to a crowd better than the Diablo Immortal dev team.
@@exantiuse497 Definitely not intentional. I was having trouble right before we went live too. I shifted slightly in my chair (you might even be able to spot it in the video) and that's all it took.
After watching a couple playthroughs of this game give crazy props to the guys that designed this tas. Reg levels are insane but that bowswr kill was epic
i actually did the harmless enemy glitch on accident in star world 4 and immediately called my friend to brag that i found a glitch without using the internet
"Casual player will most likely never beat it, even with save states." If only because by the time they beat it, they aren't really a casual player anymore.
12:06 "I always bring two of everything" so you always bring 2 TASBots? 🤔 (edit) when you have a TAS, the estimate is the time it takes for that TAS to be completed, always. (at least that's what i think it's supposed to be like) (edit #2) 31:00 guess I was wrong....
This is so amazing, i hope to see more bots play different games, maybe even online multiplayer games (Brawlhalla, Super mario maker speedrun any level, Racing games, Multiplayer Shooter...)
Shadowgaming105 I don’t know if it’s satire, but from what I’ve seen is that they program a bot to press button at frame perfect inputs so you can get the best run possible at the time.
Yes, this way you can make some crazy things. This run is not particurlarly entertaining, my personal best is the Monkey Ball one and the one where they made Super Mario Maker in SMB
I bought a cartridge of this game... biggest waste of money. I can't even get a save file going because I can't beat the first level. Worst part is, I don't know if it's a version that saves after every level either.
DynVec Real Time Attack. Basically means when real people are playing, it’s RTA. If something is RTA viable it’s means it’s possible for a human player to do
Holy Moly how does this device work? Does it play the game just on his own while reading possibilities or must all of this be scripted by human? I mean it plays more accurate than any human LOL
you might have learned the answer in the last 3 years but if not: it's basically like those punch card music players. It plays back inputs programmed into a perfect sequence by talented people with access to tools that let them run the game in an emulator with pause, rewind, and frame by frame advance, plus the ability to make macros or directly edit button presses. Getting it to work with real hardware is the hard part since real hardware usually has tiny bits of lag in loading compared to a modern pc, some of the tas emulators have built in emulation so accurate these are built in, but desync is always possible since tasbot can't see the screen or know that it is out of sync.

I specifically asked GlitchCat7 to come provide commentary because I knew I couldn't do it justice on my own. He nailed it.
@@dwangoAC GlitchCat is great. He's a really chill dude and always entertaining. That's why he's the only person I sub to on Twitch.
I logged in UA-cam just to comment, "i don't understand why people enjoy watching things like TASBOT," but after reading your comment I have a better understanding.
you know your rom hack is hard when even tasbot dies
This is one of the most impressive displays of commentating skill that I've seen for a while!
Glitchcat is amazing
I read this comment before the video, and was like pfff. Yea another exaggerated comment... glad to see I was wrong, he was crystal clear to understand while maintaining a high speed of commentary to keep up with the gameplay wow.
When tasbot desynced I seriously thought it was planned and something crazy was going to happen since they always do that with tas bot runs.
In case you were wondering and scrolled down to the comments, RTA stands for "Real Time Attack" and refers to a non tool assisted playthrough.
Doesn't RTA mean real time actual which refers to just a pure timer running, no pausing during loading or anything.
@@casualcgrain7835: Outside the context of TAS, "Real Time Attack" means not using the in-game timer (and in fact, most speedruns are RTA). In the context of TAS, "Real Time Attack" means normal (non-TAS) speedrun.
I thought it meant 'Real-Time Action'. Not much difference though.
Mambodog 532 i thought it means real time attempt

Do you guys not have TASBots?
It desyncs at nearly every GDQ so they are used to it by now.
I was 100% certain when they said it desynched that it was intentional and they were just setting up something insane lol
I mean... it ain’t hard compared to how bad that went
@@exantiuse497 Definitely not intentional. I was having trouble right before we went live too. I shifted slightly in my chair (you might even be able to spot it in the video) and that's all it took.
There are two levels of TAS bot
Absolute god
And
Potato when desynced.
Normal TASBot is basically Neo in the Matrix
100% agree
These are the same bot.
11:00 That head pat made me adore TASBOT. >u
Sadly, no Mario 64 jokes when TASBot walked backwards up the staircase in the autoscrolling level.
yahoo y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y yahoo
*Mario starts BLJ-ing upstairs*
Crowd: *0 reaction*
Tas Reach the same level where it stopped on the first run: 20:22
Thanks (:
Thank you good sir, very helpful
The real hero
Doing gods work
youre a good person
Shoutout to Ryukahr who beat the final boss in 1hr 7 minutes was really something to behold
"Are you mortal?"
"I hope so."
Oof big mood.
who
do you mean?
i like how the timer's background is the same as the numbers showed, but in binary
Man, this TASBot guy is really good!
After watching a couple playthroughs of this game give crazy props to the guys that designed this tas. Reg levels are insane but that bowswr kill was epic
Runner introduction starts at 3:33.
Run starts at 4:00.
Successful run (post desync) starts at 13:26
...But you should watch the whole thing anyways since they commentate different things both times ;)
See Carl, all you have to do is this
Ayyyyy
i actually did the harmless enemy glitch on accident in star world 4 and immediately called my friend to brag that i found a glitch without using the internet
FE0 points.
Just ugly amounts of points.
Me gusta
TASBot be like:
Walls? Oh you mean thoose pointless objects that anyome can go through
23:40 Carl Sagan spent 18h on that lvl feelsbadman
The TASbot did a fat BLJ through half of it
There are other people who have played this game. Ones that did not give up too.
@@hlantian7563 not to mention rta speedrunners
Love that TAS backup strats is just getting new hardware
Damn the Swag at the end is beyond belief. Loved the run, one of THE runs someone should watch if they want to get into the gaming hobby.
TASBot is a ROB unit? Awesome!
Kaizo: We have devised the most evil...
TASBot: Physics? What’s that?
*proceeds to use anti-gravity in super mario bros. 3*
Thank you for showing controller inputs!
After this day, Bowser retired and moved to Florida. He didn't want to mess with Mario anymore.
Thats PRESIDENT Bowser to you.
All hail TASBOT! TASBOT is love! TASBOT is life!
i feel like there should be a time tag in the description that the run re-syncs and restarts at about 13:10
7:11 Yahoo! Yah-yayayayayayayayayayayayayayahoo!
that donation at the end was amazing
This run is fanTASstic!
Its GDq time boys
Oh no! Quick, run from its GDq time boys, boys!
This was such an interesting TAS! I don't think I have seen a lot of those stats before.
the 2 things that are certain in life:
You will die
tasbot will de-sync at some point in the run
Up to 70 hours to complete... if you're really good. Casual player will most likely never beat it, even with save states.
"Casual player will most likely never beat it, even with save states."
If only because by the time they beat it, they aren't really a casual player anymore.
11:00 That's the cutest thing ever
Tasbot normally: absolute robot
tasbot when desync: potato
12:06 "I always bring two of everything"
so you always bring 2 TASBots? 🤔
(edit) when you have a TAS, the estimate is the time it takes for that TAS to be completed, always. (at least that's what i think it's supposed to be like)
(edit #2) 31:00 guess I was wrong....
6:16 i guess he means my hero BarbarousKing
Glitchcat’s commentary is almost as impressive as the TAS.
clever way to shave frames off a tas by damage boosting while a setup is playing out so you dont need input. cheeky buggars
that gasp sound at 9:55 spooked me
After watching item abuse this seems like level 1-1
So actually TASbot needed that save...!!
7:11
tasbot does the BLJ in 2d mario
YAHOO!
This is really nice!
I like that people will clap for a computer playing a game.
It’s cool that’s why
This is so amazing, i hope to see more bots play different games, maybe even online multiplayer games (Brawlhalla, Super mario maker speedrun any level, Racing games, Multiplayer Shooter...)
Whoa!!!
So epic!!
Dang Rob is really good at Mario
Sadism before Mario Maker 2 made all levels this way.
Kaizo God
11:30 PooStomp
I can do that! just mash the buttons at the speed of sound! it's simple!
Dode is TASBOT confirmed.
So is TASBOT just a board that activates the inputs of the controller with pre-programmed electrical outputs?
In part also there is a signal that gets sent back to the bot so it knows when the frames fire.
Shadowgaming105 I don’t know if it’s satire, but from what I’ve seen is that they program a bot to press button at frame perfect inputs so you can get the best run possible at the time.
Yes

lettuce
The honey badger commentary was underrated
The desynq that screwed it up xD
TASbot didnt even beat the estimate
I think the timer was off when they started after the desync
7:11 Wait can we
blj in super mario world?
Makes me so sad to be old enough to have played this game when it first came out and still have no clue of what this kids are saying.
Finally!
7:11 Shout out to Super Mario 64 BLJ
Whistlecube Shoutouts to Soompleflops
6:10 Wooooh Calco!!!!
What is this magic that I am witnessing.
Sooo is this a reupload? I am having serious deja vu watching the game and hearing the commentary.
I bought a cartridge of this game... biggest waste of money. I can't even get a save file going because I can't beat the first level. Worst part is, I don't know if it's a version that saves after every level either.
FeelsBadMan
Did you think it would be easy?
i think like 10 persons have beaten the game
how do you buy a cartridge of a rom hack
@@soup6478 its like buying Gameboy games of fleemarkets. I used to buy some as a kid, Got home exited as hell and then seeing it was a copied one
What does RTA stand for?
Sh4dow sight real time attack
I watched the whole thing and I have one question. What. Is. THIS.?!?
What the hell did I just watch
Oh My God
Nice
Last level gimmick remind me of the last level of Celeste, with the switch to change the lava.
Yoshi dont care
what is that controller called with each lighted button reflect the players presses? Where do I get one like that?
It's a display board. Custom made for tas playbacks. I think the design might be on GitHub?
GlitchCat is a major nerd
oooh! it's a robot...
that wasn't very clear 😅
It's literally called tasbot
It's also not even a bot people just slowed down the game to use inputs at very specific times but played back in real time
5:31 What does RTA mean?
DynVec Real Time Attack. Basically means when real people are playing, it’s RTA. If something is RTA viable it’s means it’s possible for a human player to do
So they just neglected to mention that Ryukahr beat bowser in 1hr and 6 minutes?
I don’t understand is that robot playing
No. It's people slowing down the game to do inputs at very specific times then played back in real time
What does his shirt say?
My shirt said Jesus saves at the end of each level.
Anyone know what RTA means?
real time attempt
Love that Dark Souls boss at the end.
Holy Moly how does this device work? Does it play the game just on his own while reading possibilities or must all of this be scripted by human? I mean it plays more accurate than any human LOL

So what *exactly* is TASBOT?
友人マリオォォォ
Noob didnt even got the estimate time :D
this makes no sense
...to you.
kkkaizoooooooo
gc7Kitty
Can Tasbot kill the animals?
Tasbot will always kill the animals to save the frames.
no u
26:04 apparently Mario is an ugly Spaniard. (FE0 could be seen as Feo which means ugly)
Does this SMW kaizo was playen in real-time by the TASBOT, or it was recorded before? who knows? :O
The exact buttons to press at the exact time are recorded beforehand. These inputs are played back in real time.
