I want to tell you, by your effort and your hard work into TASing this game, you made at least one person happy. And I'm 100% certain I'm not an exception. Keep it up! ❤
No, you are not the only one who appreciates the effort this person made, Metroid is my favorite saga and finally seeing a TAS of this game fills me with joy
2:26:48 lol, that's amazing. This is my first time watching a sequence break of this game, it's great. Thanks for all the effort put into this, I've wanted a TAS of this game for very long
Never been as confident in my masculinity as when I got the feeling I did from watching TAS-level welding. The boosting through the Seeker Missiles area was also pure dopamine. Thanks for making this!
After looking around a bit, I may have found an explanation. The way the hyper ball puzzle works is that it has a counter that increases by 1 every time a orb is destroyed, and goes down by one every 3 seconds. The intended solution destroys all nine orbs instantly, which reaches the required number.By getting out of bounds however, they manage to do a trick that lets thm increase the count by 2 every 3 seconds, meaning they only have to destroy one orb 9 times to get through.
Not that long tbh, i took the route used in regular 100% speedruns and asked the world record holder if they knew any optimizations or strats too difficult for RTA speedrunning. I think the route flows very well, except for that one missile at the end of Elysia 1, but you can't really avoid that with all the other optimizations done in this run
Very, very far out of bounds there is an invisible connection to the spire room. Touching the trigger activates the cutscene which usually starts after depositing the bomb.
Too many coincidences. The timing, the previous Metroid titles release, the rumoured switch 2 dev kit that arrived in Spain in 2023 which just so happens to be same location as Mercury Steam the studio that made Metroid dread
Ich kenne dich noch von den MaskedKirby Zeiten und deinem Prime Trilogy let’s play. Existiert zwar alles nicht mehr, aber Erinnerungen bleiben. Ebenso weiß ich noch wie du nie bock hattest Prime 3 zu speedrunnen. Hat sich wahrscheinlich durch aktuelle technics geändert die denen der anderen Prime games ähneln?
First some general tips: - unless you're doing low% or some stuff, get all the Energy Tanks - it's better to play slower without getting hit than rushing and taking damage all the time now a few things for the phases: Dark Samus - use X-Ray when she splits up - destroy the pillars, they give you health drops AU313 - dodge the laser attack, it deals way too mush damage on hyper - when it summons the 3 Dark Samus closes, use Hyper missiles to destroy them Head - use screw attack when it does the spinning attack on the ground, you can stun it if you manage to hit it - again, if you have enough health, play slow and defensive
2:19:35 How did your missile create an ice platform before defeating Rundus? The doors I can understand as being simple reskins, but does the game expect you to have them just that hard?
@@y45uh1k0 in corruption your missiles have like 3 stages of upgrades Normal -> Ice -> Seekers similar to the beams (Power -> Plasma -> Nova) So After collecting Seekers, you get the ice effect for free
If only this game had been made without the motion control gimmicks and without trying to push the other stupid Hunter characters they were trying to merchandize it would have been a 10/10. I still enjoyed it, but goddamn the other hunters from the DS game being there was so annoying.
I agree on the motion control part, but Rundas is a homie and the Metroid Prime speedrunning community made Ghor a meme. Gandrayda can go to hell though.
They're obvious glow-ups. Rundas is Noxus with the freeze beam, Gandrayda is Sylux (I'll believe that was his ship in post-credits when he shows up in 4) and Ghor is a more robotic Weavel. I identified this immediately as a kid. @@MaskedTAS
@@brokenbutterfly5589 They're still not the same hunters. Though you are correct with the ship in the secret ending belonging to Sylux. It's all but confirmed that he will be the main antagonist of Prime 4. I'm absolutely looking forward to that!
2:26:47 everyone in the discord call when that one guy makes the hottest and worst take of the night
Good Luck Samus
@bobbybero7452 ❤
AU: samus I see you are crawling in the walls of elysia, please go check the gfs valhalla
Samus: no
AU: ok, good day
I want to tell you, by your effort and your hard work into TASing this game, you made at least one person happy. And I'm 100% certain I'm not an exception. Keep it up! ❤
Thank you so much for the kind words
No, you are not the only one who appreciates the effort this person made, Metroid is my favorite saga and finally seeing a TAS of this game fills me with joy
Metroid games are just so different compared to everything else. Especially the soundtrack. This was an amazing run.
Tbh Prime 3 has a lot of bangers but it also has a lot of penis music
Finally a Corruption TAS I've wanted this for a long time from someone!
-SAMUS! This is Admiral Dane.
Samus: 🥱
Watching speedruns, especially of Metroid, is pure ASMR for me! Thanks for uploading!
2:26:48 lol, that's amazing. This is my first time watching a sequence break of this game, it's great. Thanks for all the effort put into this, I've wanted a TAS of this game for very long
Wow, this whole TAS is incredible. I never thought I'd see the day Prime 3 would be busted open like this.
My favorite Metroid game ever, what an awesome speedrun.
3:02 I am surprised with how fast you twisted that, that it didn't just twist right off.
Although this took a lot of work, but I bet we agree that this TAS run of Prime 3 will sure make people feel impressed and happy at the same time.
Never been as confident in my masculinity as when I got the feeling I did from watching TAS-level welding. The boosting through the Seeker Missiles area was also pure dopamine. Thanks for making this!
How do you only have 997 subscribers? You should have more than this because this is amazing.
History has been made.
I like that OoB stuff is very different for each of the Prime games
Honestly this is the first Metroid Prime i played and finish 100% and your run is incredible !
The visuals of this game: 🌞
The lore: 🌚
i like how there are two samuses, pause at 1:44:58 and i have no idea what caused that to happen
I can't believe I never noticed that
i know its TAS but damn....my whole childhood reduced to less than 3 hours.
What even happened to Rundas? Was alive one sec with a full health bar then popped.
He was killed by the elevator
It's rare to see segmented TAS runs, didn't know Prime 3 was so prone to desyncing.
I managed to fix the desyncs in my newer runs using a newer Dolphin version and probably due to better settings
How in the world did 31:45 count as solving the hyper ball puzzle?
After looking around a bit, I may have found an explanation. The way the hyper ball puzzle works is that it has a counter that increases by 1 every time a orb is destroyed, and goes down by one every 3 seconds.

How long did the routing for this take
Not that long tbh, i took the route used in regular 100% speedruns and asked the world record holder if they knew any optimizations or strats too difficult for RTA speedrunning.
I think the route flows very well, except for that one missile at the end of Elysia 1, but you can't really avoid that with all the other optimizations done in this run
2:54 wait you can despawn Ghor?
wwwhat is goin on at 1:06:50

37:41 how did you open the ice missile door with a normal missile 😮
Ice missile doors in Elysia are a lie. They're just regular missile doors with a different texture

Did I miss when you got the green beam?
I got it the frame before I died at around 1:36:40
Anyone got any tips for the final boss on hypermode? I beat it once, ever. And then I deleted my save T.T
First some general tips:
- unless you're doing low% or some stuff, get all the Energy Tanks
- it's better to play slower without getting hit than rushing and taking damage all the time
now a few things for the phases:
Dark Samus
- use X-Ray when she splits up
- destroy the pillars, they give you health drops
AU313
- dodge the laser attack, it deals way too mush damage on hyper
- when it summons the 3 Dark Samus closes, use Hyper missiles to destroy them
Head
- use screw attack when it does the spinning attack on the ground, you can stun it if you manage to hit it
- again, if you have enough health, play slow and defensive

@@MaskedTAS Oooooh I see, thanks!
ship missiles? do you actually fight with the ship in this one?
There are a couple fights where using ship missiles is faster than any other methods, most noticeable in norion cleanup near the end of the run
2:30:14 Excuse me, WHAT ?
2:13:58 me on december second😂😂😂
SPLICED!!! CHEATER!!!!
CHEATER CHEATER CHEATERRRRR
You beat me to it lol
Doesn't work
this serious or?
@@amethyst6965 Nah we are joking don't worry ^^
Wait, what’s the point of regrabbing it at 47:04?
The next room loads anyway so there's no time lost by doing this
@@MaskedTASah I see that makes sense
Also, what happened at 2:21:09? Did Samus just kill Rundas with her presence? Lmao
