I love that Joker here directly calls out Speezy for skipping to the solution before he even saw the problem by going directly to the roof instead of trying to save the hostages downstairs. Shows how good the devs are for planning that someone would use the easier route on their second playthrough.
Cool
I honestly got that dialogue the first time I ever did it. I was so confused by it.
@Tyler Underwood g gughgu is fight😮your y
@@christopherchildress1877Yes
Already knew this because I have played this game like 500 times. But nice for pointing it out for people who didn't know
The concept of Batman telling some dude "Please stop talking to me dude, I'm tryina go fast" is just so great
Its like Batman is tired of rescuing Gotham 😂
“I need to get this done as fast as possible, so please _shut up._ “
“Why do you need to leave so soon?”
“ _It’s soup night._ “

i see lego batman doing this
What time at the video was you at
Honestly i just love this type of speedrun video, your longer ones give me more to watch, with minimal cuts, and it makes this whole experience much better. It just makes me wish you had a VOD channel to watch.
he literally does?
@@xburrito ayo then can I get the link
@@CaptianChaosMan EaziestSpeezy, should be the one
Edit, I was wrong, just search the yt name with VODS, should be there
One thing I love about Arkham Asylum is how subtly unsettling it is compared to the other Arkham games. I think it's mostly a compilation of small things, like the way you run into fewer and fewer friendly faces as the game progresses until there seems to be none left, the Scarecrow scenes, even the little jingle whenever they say stuff over the PA system. It all just makes you feel more and more alone and hopeless as things progress, and it's creepy in a way very few things are to me. I normally find scary and horror movies to be genuinely boring because they just don't frighten me or bother me at all, but Arkham Asylum hits me with a weird feeling of dead that almost nothing else has ever been able to.
I recommend you play Portal 1. As someone who has played both, I can guarantee you're gonna get that same, or at least similar, sense of "dead" and hopelessness.
BloodBorne. Play it, you'll love it.
@@ascii8229I've played both, loved them... never found it unsettling at all tho. Interesting
I think something was lost in the wider, open world of the other games. The tight corridors of the asylum, seeing less and less friendlies, Scarecrow, that entire glitch sequence(seriously cannot express how good that was), Croc's entire incredibly tense fight and the way he was teased earlier through the game. It really gives you the opportunity to be Batman, hanging from parapets and diving down on unsuspecting goons. However, it also shows you just how tense and dreadful it all is. How Bruce constantly looks over his shoulder, around every corner, checking and double checking things. Hell, some of the details and easter eggs you can find yourself are unsettling as hell.
On top of all that, it's all packed in so tightly and so seamlessly. It's genuinely a perfect game imo, a true 10/10.
There’s 1 long comment and 1 long reply
Watching Speezy makes it plausible that Asylum happens over a single night.
fun fact, I'm pretty sure it's been confirmed that Arkham Origins happens over a period of about 6 hours, and that's roughly how long a 100% speedrun of Origins lasts. (though it's closer to 5 and a half currently)

@@SkyeFyre2131WTF WHY WOULD THEY INTRODUCE BRUCE AS KAIZO MARIO
I really wanna see this guy speedrun a hitman game
not as long as you would think. especially this game
U can't
How about Arkham City or Knight, they would probs be way more brutal, especially if he goes for 100%
@@hassanawdi3793 why not
That's a bad idea
what I like about EazySpeezy is that he actually explains the game's lore and backstory and whats going on for people who have never played it
I find it very funny listening to him explain batmans back story like it isnt the most well known backstory other than spiderman and superman
@@richiepayne7226 of these three i only knew spidermans backstory, and i gotta be honest i thought by that logic batman was bitten by a bat and i guess superman got bitten by another super hero
@@jewosjowos2832 Spider-Man’s backstory is simple enough. Peter Parker, on a school trip, gets bitten by a genetically-enhanced radioactive spider, giving him superpowers by morning. He initially exploits this power set, and intentionally ignores an active crime he witnessed, which through sheer unfortunate coincidence ends up with his uncle dead. Having learnt his lesson, he goes on to use his powers for good. Batman is a little different. Bruce Wayne, a young teenager, is exploring a cave during summer vacation. The cave, being a cave, is full of bats. Unfortunately, Bruce lives in Gotham city, a horribly crime ridden and corrupt city, where it’s always raining, and every building looks like it belongs to the Addams family (so, think Detroit) and one thing that Gotham is known for is its horrible techniques when it comes to disposing of nuclear waste. And who just so happens to have gone into the nuclear waste cave? That’s right! Bruce! He walks in, gets attacked by several bats, and walks out looking like he got mugged by vampires. By morning, he realizes that he now has bat-themed superpowers! He initially exploits them to earn cash, cheating at sports games and such. On a walk with his parents, they ended up getting mugged. Bruce didn’t utilizes his powers because he knew his parents would realize he had used them to cheat at sports, and through brief seconds of inaction, Bruce’s parents were shot, by a distinctly NOT radioactive bullet. If it WAS radioactive, they would have gotten bullet themed superpowers. Bruce vows to beat the hell out of every criminal he meets. Finally, Clark Kent, an orphan, was adopted by two loving parents, who lived in the countryside. Clarks parents often warned him of terrible beasts out in the woods, such as Bigfoot, or the Moss Man, or even the Mystical Accountant. Despite the warnings, Clark decided to go out into the woods at night with the exclusive purpose to find at least one of these creatures. Low and behold, he did, in fact, find the mystical accountant. And, of course, if bit him. Running home, Clark discovered that he started to develop magical powers that were, for whatever reason, thematically unrelated to the mystical accountant. He could fly! He could lift boulders! He could shoot lasers out of his eyes! And he could breath, really, really hard! He took on the name Superman, as he couldn’t think of a unifying theme that would tie all of his powers together. His parents were fine, though. They weren’t murdered.
@@jewosjowos2832 If you still haven't learned superman's backstory, I think he's like, an alien that got sent to earth as a baby? Like his planet was in danger and so his parents just... tossed him out there. Anyways I hope this helped and that I wasn't drastically far off (also the idea of batman's backstory being getting bitten by a radioactive bat is legitimately so hilarious I wish it were true. I'd say the same for superman)
Yes and he is also funny.
As a huge Vent-Fanatic, the progression of the Vents in this game tickles my fancy ever so tenderly.
Batman is being so sus in this game with all the venting.
I remember playing this so much after school as a kid. I miss those days so much
My dad got arkham city and asylum both game of the year editions, so with city it gives 3 discs
Arkham origins is 2 disc's but arkham city and asylum are one disc each
Yo saaaame
I feel your pain buddy
You can literally still play it
The Arkham series is one that will stand the test of time for millenias to come. One of my favourite representations of the Dark Knight, hands down, and you handled it splendidly. I'd be willing to bet Bruce is the sort of person to speedrun up and down Joker's scrawny butt with every opportunity he gets. "Every second is another potential life when it comes to his brand of villainy" and all that.
this comment is amazing
I reckon this epoch of civilization will be long dead in 2000 years time which is what millenia implies
@@ThePresidentofMars
I pander to whichever side of this epoch doesn't wake up and decide to poopoo in people's cocoa puffs over a word. My bad, your majesty.
It became a poetry reading
@@AyEmEl💀💀
I cannot imagine the amount of time spent trying to learn all the routes
Whoever put down the riddles in these stupid locations while making sure some of them are really obscure deserves special place in hell.
Well I've played this game so many times I pretty much remember every where to go
you should see gta 5 100% speedruns
From someone who has ran this category and game for a good while it really doesn’t take that long to learn.
@@kalxys how tf you can remember the routes before killer croc and Poison Ivy levels? This is where you get most of the equipment and because of how Poison ivy level is all plants, it makes some of the riddles and trophies hard to remember.
The fact that you can skip Riddler's introductory monologue is really funny and also very in character for Batman
35:31
Tip:
When u enter the library to save the hostages. U can actually skip the brawl with the inmates and just grapple up to the top. Joker will also react to this and say a new line that goes "Reading the last page first ?" This game is truly amazing back in its time
you will have to fight them later.
i love the small detail of batmans cape slowly becoming more ragged throughout the game. theres just so much thought put into this and it pleases me.
when i watch him i remember the good days when i 'm playing asylum and i'm always lost in the map
Lmao same
for the past 2 weeks i just been binging all your speedruns, my friend you are amazing!
Bro using bing 💀
@@MiksonPLL what?
@@Dctctx I just been “ binging”
Binging as in “binge watching”
Wow, that 3rd Scarecrow encounter... WHen I was playing this game with my brother, it was so cool and surprising and scary... You've just unlocked a forgotten memory in my head
Well done! Now you’ve gotta learn Arkham City. From personal experience, that 100% run is SO much fun.
I bet someone is going to say something like: what are you doing here ClownPuncher
What are you doing here ClownPuncher139
Well if it isn’t UA-cam’s biggest Arkham fan
i used to play arkham city so much before my ps3 broke i used to speedrun the game in like 1 hour(prolly not a wr)
@Winnerlol my PS# still works and the one hour is just story Mode and without glitches right.
I remember when asylum came out. I turned 7 that year and stayed up until 3 in the morning playing it. The Scarecrow jumpscare in the morgue used to scare me every time...and i always had to ask my dad for help with the Bane fight
LOVEEEE this style of long form commentary on speedruns! Arkham city next!
I don't think he's coming out with Arkham City 😞
Cant wait for the 9 hour arkham knight 100%!!
"If someone is trying to attack you, attack him first"
-EazySpeezy
29:48 has some serious vibes for silly banter.
'He's gonna get up here now isn't he...'
"Look, pretend you don't see him, an maybe, we don't get beat up an sent flyin off this thing."
'Will that work?'
"He's a speed runner, we don't mess wit him, he won't mess with us."
I like how you refer to the Joker teeth in singular when you're targetting only one set of teeth
Would absolutely love to see you speed run the other games in this series!!!
2:06 telling Harley Quinn to shut up and respect his grindset is crazy
so this is how batman canonically did all of this in the same night
Still one of my favorite superhero game series of all time
36:15 that Joker line actually plays only if you go upwards, and it's referring to the fact that you anticipated his trap (maybe after seeing it in a video). That's pretty cool.
man this game continues to age well. excellent run
The fact that Batman in canon probably does all this in probably about the same time as the speed run (plus dialogue duh) is actually pretty cool
I didn't realize this was always live commentary. Damn man, I would go insane trying to record this. Good job!
I don't think this is real time commentary. There are regular cuts in the footage while the narration continues. The speedrun is also longer than the video.
I don't really blame the Riddler. If I hid trophies and riddles in dangerous, sealed, and all around difficult to access locations such as a tall land formation in the middle of a huge body of water, only for all 240 to be found, I'd probably get at least a little upset too.
Who's watching this after Kevin Conroy passed away?😔 Rest in peace legend, rest in peace Kevin, rest in peace Batman🦇❤
Loved this video! Something about this long format with a lot of details was really great to watch! If you ever do the rest of the series of just other, similar games, that is a guaranteed watch for me!
37:56
Batman's family gets gunned down in an ally while he watches
Speedrunner:"He probably should have gone to therapy like 3 times"
Considering how much of a freeform parkour game this can get...I can only imagine what the experimentation was like
i am a HUGE arkham head so this was really cool to see one of my favorite youtuber play this game. please play the other games, they are even better than the first
This is such a good game almost gives me a tear to my eye remembering it

I always respect speedrunners for doing what I can never do...be good at a game
Weird thing I've noticed in my playthroughs of the game, especially because you mentioned a heart monitor yourself.
There is a few instances where Joker threatens death on his men/their family, and like their heart rates never change. I know it is supposed to be used for the stealth sections, but it is still kind of funny to me that they didn't explore using it outside of those brief moments.
reminds me of a quote i read in a book, where someone used something like heart monitors on fighter pilots, and were surprised to find that landing on an aircraft carrier, especially at night, was more stressful than COMBAT!
15:33 in this room, you can get the remote controlled baterang, knock the guy down, and hit the switch woth the rcb, and itll clear the whole room at once
I gotta say its really impressive how you are able to learn all these runs and execute them at a good level
1:37:12 "Well, good luck to you, toots. I got an army, a city-sized dose of Titan and a bag of weed killer."
The ultimate arsenal, how will Ivy beat it.
I remember playing this game when I was like 7 or 8, and the psychos scared me shitless so when they all got released onto the island I was so scared I took a break from the game for like 2 weeks before coming back to finish the game 🤣
Rip to the guard who thought mentioning he has a child was going to make any difference to the people that are locked up in arkham because the death penalty doesnt exist
Please do the whole series this video was awesome!
If he ever did, Arkham Knight would be like 10 hours lol. But I'm here for it
@@Official_Fuze Actually, going 100% Knightfall Protocol takes 49 hours.
@@connorinuzuka8319 gah dam. I'd still watch that whole thing
@@Official_Fuze That's if you don't know the shortcuts. In other words, if you do New Game+, you start with the fully upgraded Batsuit, which allows you to take out up to 5 enemies at once
This video is so enjoyable for some reason even after beating the game multiple times I just couldn’t believe you could do it that quick tbf. Also you finally collecting that trophy made me happy 1:42:52
yup :)
Vents: *exist*
Batman: It's free real estate.
36:17 he calls the chandelier by the pokemon's name, chandelure. The captions even agree. Love it.
I just love watching man: ham aslume speedruns.
You probably won’t see this because it’s super late after you uploaded the video but at 1:32:00 you talk about how you don’t like that Batman didn’t bring all of his stuff and they actually in one of the games explain that. The reason why he doesn’t bring all of his gear with him is because he has way too much gear. Like he has a lot of equipment that he doesn’t bring to specific areas until he thinks he needs it just because he doesn’t have enough pockets in his utility belt. so he prefers to leave all of his equipment at home and then when he thinks he needs something badly he ask One of the bat family members to send it over to him. And it definitely makes sense when you try to count how many different gadgets he has throughout all of the Batman games.
Oh hi speedy easy
Ayyy based pfp
Whats your pfp from

@@JaxonCooper-tk3ei no? Are you stupid?
Your greatest feat in this video is how much you talk and not run out of breath and also being able to focus the entire time it’s so impressive to watch
And I just realized this is like almost as long as The Batman (2022) lol
Really cool speedrun and a long video, huge W.
29:45 "I'm hired to shoot everything hing i see, not everything thing i hear"
"we will see my dad, then my mom, then my favourite parent, scarecrow"
i spitted my drink out for that one
45:03 seeing him miss a single tooth made me scream, thank god he came back 10 seconds later to get it
The Batman who *VENTED*
58:36 Never actually realized, but JESUS that's dark. Like legitimately might be one of the darkest easter eggs in the entire series.
If you're curious as to why, read the comic that inspired this game "A Serious House on Serious Earth" because I don't believe the backstory is FULLY explained in these games.
The 100% speedrun for Batman Arkham Knight is completely revolved around the Riddler due to the fact that you can skip all of his dialoge by letting an unsolved riddle play while he's talking. This is even more important when it comes to the 240% catagory.
Watching you miss that joker teeth at45:05 was PAINFUL
I had an adrenaline spike at 45:03, missed the joker teeth. Imagine if that messed the whole run up.
The fact no glitches were used makes this the best speedrun I have seen so far, I am no fan of the glitches.
Lets get A W for the time and hard work it took for Speezy to do this.
I just beat this game for the first time today so it's really interesting to see someone play through it in a completely different way
Funny, I had just finished watching a 100% walkthrough when this came up, UA-cam really wants me to be a Batman fan.🤣
Joker be like "Its the Joker, baby" and I be like "I don't really care"
Thats literally the average Batman and Joker conversation 😭
Ah yes another absolute banger of a video from EazySpeezy!
I love the commentary Easy does.
I don’t know why, but I find it hilarious of his take on what’s happening in the game.
honestly 😭
Do you commentate these live during gameplay? That’s awesome! Always appreciate someone who is able to remember all the details of the run while still being able to entertain/explain the process❤
the voiceover is done post recording, when the video is edited
Please do all of the Arkham games!!!! I love watching speed runs of these games specifically and you are easily the most entertaining speed runner. City, Origins, and Knight. You are awesome man keep up the good work!
Many people, including me, say Origins doesn't count as part of the Arkham series because it's not made by Rocksteady
@@connorinuzuka8319 I mean I can see the reasoning but even Rocksteady included the origins suit, villains, and many references to the game in Knight so even they see it as canon. I see where you are coming from but I just know it’s a fun speed run and thought it would be cool to see him do.
R.I.P Kevin Conroy my Batman
I never knew I could speed up that first Zaaz part. That’s gonna help so much in future playthroughs
Would love to see you do more games like this love watching them! The batman games are so much fun!
You're the first person i've seen to be this stressed out at Killer Croc 🤣
i don’t usually ever like or comment on youtube videos. but i’m glad to see you do this. i LOVE the arkham series and would love to see you do this for all the other arkham games too
God I love this game franchise, definitely one of my favourites ! I really hope you speed run the other batmans, loved this
Speezy every 10 seconds: I love Harley Quinn
hes just like me fr
What about Ivy tho
With the weirdly placed question marks, finding them without a guide was mostly a matter of running around with detective mode on (or flying around where possible) until I spot the paint. It took a while when I was younger.
One of the games I loved playing as a kid. Love your videos
45:03 my heart sank as your ran by the unbroken tooth
We got to appreciate the amount of work and tries this must have took. Thanks for putting out this great content
as we can see, King Bach has presented a rather large spoon to his friend. The humor in this video stems from the fact that King Bach would like to eat ice cream but his friend retorts at him, saying he can only have a spoon full, nothing more. Bach then suddenly changes his expression and body language and reveals that he is indeed in possession of a spoon. And not just any spoon, it is a massive stainless steel spoon. This is funny because you would never expect someone to just be casually in possession of a massive spoon to eat ice cream with. It is completely unorthodox and uncalled for. This is why the video is so humorous and was put on the 2012 Epic Vine compilation playlist on UA-cam.
I know that this probably won't happen given how long the game is, but I would like to see an Arkham City speedrun. Not necessarily 100% given how that would probably take an entire day, but the main story would be cool. I understand if that doesn't happen though.
That could take 1 and half a day by the absurd amount of riddler trophies
Thank you for making longer content. I know most people hate it but I love It
I never able to watch 50+ minute videos but I was able to watch this and it was very relaxing well made and done! Keep up the amazing videos ❤
This is ironically probably how it felt for all the other characters in the arkham asylum. batman just speedrun destroying all your evil plans in a little over 2 hours
Really great run. Amazing you commented all of it. Great game Atwell. Surprised 100%ing this only can take 3 hours lol
as a vet to this game, seeing you play this game makes me hope you play the other ones aswell, but still i love this game just as much as the others
This video really makes me *feel* like Bat-Man
This game looks so much better in a higher frame rate. Just got the platinum for this game and it was such an experience lol.
I started with Arkham Night and became a fan of the games. Never got to play this, but this speedrun is great for me to catch up lol
I also started with Knight
I'm late but same
I started with Asylum, currently playing City and soon will move on to Knight
@@UndertaleFan-cx2mc enjoy the journey my friend.
@@KaranChauhan-rf8wt Thanks
Arkham Asylum was impressive for a game made in 2009 and so far is my #1 game of 2024
But I’ll see how Arkham City does for me as I move on, since I’m 56% through the entire game now, trying to get EVERYTHING on the map
I actually remember when I played this as a kid and at night around 2 am the glitch part of Scarecrow happened. The game got me so well with that and the morgue section of the dead parents. It is a horror game. :D Also I remember I actually did 100% the game I don't think I used the internet, only used the in game secret maps to figure out stuff, but it was like 10 years ago so who knows. Thanks for the speed run now if I want to play Arkham City, I do not have to play Asylum again for the story! :)
"im not crazy, im batman," sure sounds like something a crazy person would say
I’m surprised a 100% speed run doesn’t involve all the challenge maps. Those were so fun and so frustrating
"He's like, yo! Look at my dude!"
That's how you get arrested Joker...
I'm probably the only one that always checks my phone while watching this video cause the Arkham Alarm is my alarm tone which confused me so many times.
Nah same here man aha
When I saw you missed the third joker teeth at 45:00 my heart dropped I hope you get it later on in the run and it doesn’t ruin shit
Edit: OK you got it like half a minute later but still my heart dropped a little bit XD
4:10
Why he is standing there? IS he stupid? Dies due to lore reasons.
