Hahahah everyone legitimately stopped didn't they.
Too funny. What a fantastic stream.

Shaving a quarter of your time off in just over a week is amazing. There's still a few little things that can save time, but a lot of it is RNG. I'm not sure on what the best time is on this type of run without glitches, but I reckon you would push it. https://www.speedrun.com/metroid_nes#All_Bosse...

Thank you so much.
This is only the start.

Live on the stream last night.
We can go quicker with this route, but not much.
I fancy trying sub 36 then move on to a different path.

Going for under 40 minutes live.

Bad luck on the Varia suit but a solid time overall.
New Kraid strats and a great ending really helped.

I watched some of the recent stream and it was devasting some of the bad luck you were getting at times. The RNG was really unfair. Sub-40 next time, I'm sure of it! Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I'm not a fan of glitches being part of speedruns. I know a lot of these take skill to perform, but it's...

Had a few decent runs, including my final one in which I got to Motherbrain and ran out of missiles, missing the kill by one shot.

We'll get it next time!

Personal Best Recorded Time - 40:30

Going to livestream tonight at 6PM BST over on Youtube and try and get Sub 40 Varia Suit.

Nah. The category I'm playing (deathless/all bosses) is in 18 minutes and uses loads of door glitches, which I do think are cool but feel a bit game breaky to me. I want to do sub 40 Varia Suit and then see how low we can go without it. Should be a lot of fun. Glory or insanity awaits... Why not Al...

Going to try and do this live tomorrow night.

All Bosses/Deathless/Sub 40 Minutes.

6PM BST, I'll have a few goes at doing it on a livestream.

Didn't record it but I know it's possible now.

I'll record a sub 40 then we move onwards....

Thought I'd make this thread to document my progression through Metroid All Bosses/Deathless, as it's not fair to keep spamming the other thread with it. The story so far: k1oovfIx-CQ 55:24 - Kraid first. Few disasters p09BRyVI0Vk 47:28 - Ridley first. Few less disasters. https://scontent.fbhx4-1.fn...

k1oovfIx-CQ Live now. So much fun doing this. So many more clears to do as well. Great work! I saw your name on the speedrun table after this run. Is this a new focus for you now? I know speedruns take an insane amount of dedication, but it would be great if someone I actually watch reguarly moves ...
