Cool video. FYI there was a simpler way to deal with the trash compactor grate. After picking up the crowbar you can jump off a crusher, crouch while in mid-air, and land on the grate; it will break under your weight. Fat Gordon strats. Obviously it's not intended, it's a NASTY softlock if you don't pick up the crowbar.

As soon as i saw that you planned those monorail jumps just to push a button, i realised you were very dedicated to the video, and deserve more likes and subs. I am proud to join the ranks!

10:24 that elevator actually is bugged REALLY bad and can sometimes kill you as if you got crushed by it if you stand in it the wrong way, which can be INCREDIBLY annoying since you can get killed unpredictably for seemingly no reason good thing it can also happen to enemies lmao
Imagine being in the shoes of one of the soldiers Gordon kills by the dozen: it's already crazy enough in normal gameplay where a single scientist running around with a crowbar decimates your entire squad, but if he does that while completely locked in a single direction from the waist up, ducking and weaving like Neo just to position people in front of him and blasting them in an instant... It's even more imposing than if he was T-posing the entire time, which is also a pretty hilarious mental picture.
boy you get some interesting people in your chat, Red was terrified about how often you saved and Marryl just had to sing his heart out on the spot or he'd explode

@@rompevuevitos222 It doesn't abide to the same artistic styling of the original models and as such they detract from the original mood and intention of the game. That's all there is to say about it. Every HD model option/mod that isn't strictly the same but with more polygons has that same problem, case in point, the HDTP mod for Deus Ex, completely changes how weapons and their animation look like, some for much worse, and is a requirement for pretty much every mod out of there for the game. It detracts from the original experience.
There are many hilarious clips and demonstrate the bugs, including soldier with arrow on knee, friendly fire, "video game" joke, and speedrun tricks. Nice edit!

10:42 Interesting, considering I had an issue where this panel flung me up into the air, crushing me on landing. It happened like 2 or 3 times before it randomly worked again.
This reminds me when I beat Half life 2 and episode 1 with a mac trackpad. Legitimately I only did it because I didn't have a mouse. Edit: To clarrify, this was years ago before I got a mouse to play games on my Macbook, I didn't intentionally play half life 2 with it, it was rather something I had to do.
@@thuslyandfurthermore Thats impressive, I had decent fps when I played it. I think. The game ran well for me, if the game lagged constantly I would of gave up.
If you were playing on latest Steam version, why didn't you set your max FPS to 1000 to get 10 times as much HP from the infinite health door in the same amount of time?
Imagine you are one of the heavily trained soldiers, spending about a quarter of your life training. Only to be pointlessly killed by someone who is playing the game without a mouse
Gread video, really love this challenge and the creativitiy needed to make it work in some places. I recently did the same thing as part of a livestream and I had to cheat in 3 or 4 places, because I didn't find a way to do it(or didn't want to waste too much time hehe) so it was exciting to see how you managed to do it. You can definitely do a lot more speedrun strats as well, for example Powerup skip is big. Or on the IHD map you can use a grenade to get up onto the roof (before the snarks) and skip a big portion of the map. Do you know how long it took you to finish the whole game? Thx for the content
Gordon, the theoretical physicist smarty pants science man, throwing a grenade in a vent he is also in, because he really doesn't want to turn his head a little bit.
In order to do the We've Got Hostiles skip you need to save in the elevator before the map change in order to preform what's called an AI abuse. An AI abuse is essentially an abuse of a glitched mechanic where all NPCs can open any door. However, if the map is reloaded the glitch resolves itself and the skip is no longer possible, which is why you need to save in the elevator before the map change. Beyond that it's just a matter of shooting the scientist and blocking him from going into the trip mine, which is as simple as either closing the blast doors or just standing by them.
Also the Dam skip you were trying to do is only possible if you tau jump or damage boost across the canyon, after that you need to break the fall damage somehow which I believe is easier done via a ladder located around there. I would not say that skip is particularly practical given the circumstances.
I'm curious why you didn't get the gun that the alien soldiers use. I don't remember how you get it, so it could just be impossible/highly impractical, but the ability to have a gun that aims itself doesn't seem like it'd be too lame. Maybe lame when combined with the infinite health glitch, but once you actually started getting to normal health again...
if you meant the hivehand, you get it in the middle of surface tension after going down the lift inside the room full of trip mines, if you somehow don’t get it (it’s pretty big and hard to miss) you can find another one in lambda core near the end of the chapter, inside one of the small rooms full of weapons and ammo
>Yes I just used tripmines on snarks you mean to tell me you don't do that on the snark nests in that one map? That's probably the best way to deal with them since you can trip the laser from far enough away that the snarks don't bother you, and conserve your satchel charges in the process.
