Try it out. It’s actually legitimately beautiful and mind shattering game. At the train, you’re supposed to put in a specific code, where it will take you to the next section of the game, and then you’ll come back to the train, punch in a new code and go somewhere else, but apparently the devs allowed players to punch in any code for any section, so this speedrunner skipped the majority of the game.
You can spend thousands of hours playing the game, doesn't mean they take time enjoying the game. Their goals is to get the fastest play, not to enjoy the game.
@@mineralwoteh9059 most speedrunners have loved the game and played through it normally many times before speedrunning. Also speedrunning counts as enjoying the game.
That's the thing, the speed runners have played so many times, they don't need to stop and smell the roses. They already have.... Its a compliment for sure, not an insult
@@_Twink yeah they only want world records that's why they spend thousands of hours grinding in games that they don't know. hey... crazy idea but... maybe... they just actually like the game? impossible
@@holidaycomplex Lol did you even read my comment? Somebody is a little slow. Anyway he's posting like 8 speed runs a year. There's no way he's playing "thousands of hours" I'd be very surprised if he got near "100"
I swear this is the best game concept I've ever seen, it's a game about that thing everyone did as a kid with their imaginary little stick dude out the window of a car
there is no insult to the developers speedruners spend a lot of hours looking at every single detail to make the run as efficient as posible every minute of development work is appreciated and carefully analyzed
Kinda sorta usually,comes down to a collective of people random experience that where a bug or a freak accident that created a faster time in an area. Just comes down to a person who’s half decent at the game to pick all that fastest methods together and play the game. Dark souls one is the prime example before the sen glitch was found the best time was roughly an hour. I respect speed runners for there time just hate when there videos get crazy traction and are the first things to pop for a game.
There is a little insult to skip all the scenery and stuff they all put effort into I guess. But at the same time these speedrunners are people who have dedicated a lot of time to the game and in a way it's flattering to the developers for someone to spend so much time and effort into playing your game to play it as fast as possible.
Also speedrunners generally only run games that they really enjoy and don't mind putting 1000's of hours into. If they wanted to insult the game then they wouldn't speedrun it, and would run a game they enjoy more instead.
" this is where you're supposed to take your time and look at everything" Trust me, most speed runners have looked at everything in games more than anyone else.
love devs who appreciate speedruns of their game. like yeah, you spent a lot of time making it for people to enjoy so you want them to appreciate it but...you made it for people to enjoy and sink time into and, honestly, speedrunners spend the most time and appreciate all the intricacies the most
@@devinrenteria8965 single player puzzle game vs online multiplayer If MW's campaign took you 80 days to play through on your first attempt, I think you need help
This game is such eye candy. Feels like there's a real lived-in world surrounding the puzzles. Also, I think speedrunners would be valuable personnel to hire on as playtesters if that's not a thing already. Then devs can work with trusted members of the community to decide what glitches/tricks need to be ironed out and which ones can be left in for runners that won't break the game for the average player.
Devs really need to remember most the people who chose to run their games are usually massive fans who played through their game multiple times; not to mention observing every aspect of it's design with the intention of playing it MORE. They didn't ignore anything; they've seen it a million times. It's a statement of love.
Always remember, speed runners already appreciated your game over and over again, what you see its just the final culmination of the hard work of playing the hundres of times.
probably because a. most people never heard of the game and b. compared to other speedruns with crazy stunts, exploits etc, this one is kinda unspectacular; he's playing the game as intended, just with no wasted movements.
Every one of these videos has people saying "oh THESE devs are so great, they are happy for the speed runner. OTHER ones get so mad" uhh give me ONE video where the dev is pissed off at the speedrunner on this channel. Come on now.
Usually those devs dont do reaction videos, they just get mad at speedrunners online and patch out speedrun tech for no reason, call speedrunners cheaters, etc.
I have never heard of this game. It is an amazing concept! I really hope IGN continues to do these. They have introduced me to some really amazing games! Also, I love the commentary by the developers of the games. Great stuff!
salute to the devs for thinking outside the box when making this game. salute to the speedrunner for thinking outside that box. tons of brilliant creativity in this video
I guess for the developers this is what it feels like when your child brings home a partner you don’t approve of but accept in the end because they love each other
As a speedrunner of other games, I wanted to respond to the comment about how it's an insult as well as a compliment. It may seem like we're skipping all the hard work you've put in and the small details, but truth be told no one spends more time in the game (other than developers) memorizing every detail, learning every path, and enjoying the general gameplay than speedrunners. I speedrun Portal 2 and I know more about that game than anyone who has just played it through casually! So please don't be offended, lol
The attention to detail in the world built around the signs here makes me wonder which of the devs has experience in that type of work environment. Often in video games, things are too clean or too purposeful in areas like that, but they absolutely nailed the look and feel of manufacturing / warehousing. Just the little idiosyncrasies of peoples work stations, how there is just random cleaning equipment and forklifts parked everywhere, "borrowed" office furniture, stick notes on everything, etc...
I noticed a lot of doves say all my hard work goes unnoticed. But you have to think about how many hundreds or even thousands of times these players put into their game. The hours and hours. I promise, they've noticed all of your hard work.
really great game with excellent puzzle design, not overly easy but nothing that actually stumped me until the final puzzle on the rooftops. really great escalation of the difficulty curve throughout and it hits the sweet spot for number of levels/gameplay hours
Thanks a lot for featuring my run! This was really fun to watch.
Helluva run man keep it up, you were blowing their minds😂
You heard them moose. Get sub 10
Amazing run man
Cmon IGN. Pin the man's comment!
how many attempts did it take you to get here?
YT recommended: yo fam here’s a speedrun of a great game you never heard about
My thoughts exactly
I was surprised because I've been following this game 's development since 2017 and the game has been released for over a year now
Exact same thing happened to me with superluminal

You can spend thousands of hours playing the game, doesn't mean they take time enjoying the game. Their goals is to get the fastest play, not to enjoy the game.
At first they enjoy the game
At last they just complete it in the least time possible

That happens when you don't randomize passwords
Prey (2017) flashbacks
or just when you allow them to be entered non-sequentially
These devs were really friendly towards all the exploits and things. Some devs get real angry lol.
Like which ones?

It bugs me that the audio is slightly desynced
I'm wondering if it's intentional because it reduces the delay of their reactions.
@@Kenionatus Nah, they reacted seconds before stuff happened so it was hard to tell what they were actually reacting to
i think its a group of people watching this on some kind of zoom call

It would be neat to have them meet the speedrunner right after they react.

Cant we give them speed tickets too?

Great video! Seemed like their audio was about 1 second ahead of the gameplay though
This game looks great, didn't even know it existed.
13:20 its not a insult speedrunners have probably watched the game from every point of view thats why they know your game better than developers
I love these!!! Thank you for brining more back!
Awesome series! Please continue these! Also, maybe you could have the Devs zoom call with the speed runners for any questions or compliments?
Honestly my favourite series you guys do

What an amazingly creative game!!!
Just beat it on Xbox thanks to Game Pass. Super neat game, perfect Game Pass addition. Loved the final sequences. Took me a bit over 4 hours.
It's no insult.... Speedrunners spend more time replaying your game than any other casual players ever will. It's simply a compliment.
Glad you started these back up
Whoever synced the audio on this one really dropped the ball.

Ok we will.
Solid vid guys, I'm excited for the future episodes.
Many more to come! There alot of past episodes too if youre interested!
First time seeing this game, and just have to say, what an innovative game... Very freaking cool.
Honestly, one of the best puzzle games I I've ever played. Very challenging, but never do much that you tear out all your hair from frustration.

Put soooo much time into this game.

Devs- “He didn’t get it in under ten minutes so I’m disappointed“
Moose- 🤦♂️ time to devote myself for a sub 10 minute run
6 years of work ran through in 11 minutes. A modern day time traveler
13:35 sounds like a challenge!
Played the game a while ago, and its always amazing to see what speedrunners are able to do with it!
That looks like a great game concept. I’ll look out for The Pedestrian.
One of them has James Willems' laugh from funhaus!
It is hard to watch him skip all the details, but if he came this far he almost certainly took his time the first time.
What cool background graphics for such a simple game
What a cool game this is! Thanks for making this appear on my radar.
Speed run is more like a dance. We practice the step until we master it.
You know what, speedrunner did their perfect playthrough after couple run
Thanks to the developers for the spoiler alert I’m enjoying so much the pedestrian that don’t want to lose that ending.. so much puzzles ahed tough.
POV: you are watching a speedrun for a game you never heard of
I love the graphics and music so much, respect to the staff
I love these guys reactions, their not like oh we need to fix all these things, more like wow he so smart and genius!!! How all developers should be
read the title and expected some guy bobbing and weaving between a bunch of cars
Reminds me of a certain, lonely SCP
Damn this game looks cool
Wow what a crazy looking game
Never heard of this game but it looks so cool
This game is underrated.

I actually thought this vid was actual pedestrians running across a crosswalk.
The developer of actual pedestrians doesn't really do interviews, especially after his son got assassinated
Very calming and beautiful game thank u .
Great commentary by the developers
The music in the game was amazing
He's jumping and hitting the roof to speed himself up.
