The fact that there just happens to be a glitch that skips every boss, but it's not just the same glitch over and over is actually wild.

And you still get.to beat the bosses as if you are visiting their room for the first time!
Alucard wasn't actually granted immortality by being half-vampire, it's just that everytime Death comes to claim him, Alucard rudely leaves.

Did Death try to disguise as a Jehovah witness?
Two things I learned. 1: Video games are held together by tinsel and gum 2: you have a pretty good impression of Death's voice
Love Richter with a glock in the opening sequence!

The Lesser Demon in the Library is special. Lesser Demons do show up as regular enemies later, but only the one in the Library can summon Mudmen. And that Library Lesser Demon summoning Mudmen is the only way to encounter Mudmen, for those looking to fill out the bestiary

Yeah, this games plays loose with monster ID. I remember trying hard to get a special (strength?) ring, only dropping from one monster. Welp, turns out it does NOT drop from that monster's 1st placement, only the much later 2nd. They are not really the same monster.
Loved the jokes sprinkled in throughout, and all the details of how to perform each trick and background info were a lot of fun to listen to.

I agree. The details and background info make this video great. The effort was totally worth it.
"Die monster." *pulls out a handgun* well played, Richter. well played.
Need me some of those death skips in real life, imagine the grin reaper shows up and you just fly past him so fast from out of nowhere while he's on his way to you that he can't even chase you? Or he's coming at you and you just slam a door into yourself and disappear and he's just like 😢
This is one of your best videos, fantastic job man!

OMG! The Death Skip was so great they released the sequel??? Whaaaa Really good video!
Detailed, informative, and entertaining; packed with clever jokes and top-notch narration. If only I could use the Duplicator to give this infinite Likes, haha. Stellar work, DB!
The Richter gunner caught me off guard. Good one DB

Richter with the gun was just brilliant. That vsauce transition was on ppoint. Really loved the video and all the funny edits in-between.

Edits getting more engaging every time! Real fun video DB
I burst out laughing at the introduction of the "big toss" exploit. This kind of utter nonsense is why I love speedruns! 😂
It's helping me learn shift line, I watched it twice and will watch it again and again I think. Would watch more
Super cool video. I would love to see more vids like this.

15:55 crap! Had to pause the video until I stop laughing! 😂
I miss thouse times when Pachinkonami made games and not only gambling machines. BTW i love the Speedrun community and how all this things are discovered and shared is so awesome
I never knew that there were glitches to make you go out-of-bounds like that. This really makes the game more interesting to play again.
Amazing play as usual! Also loved the voice over explaining what's going on in more detail.
This was awesome, I liked the quick explanation of the tricks as well. Great job with this video!
Fantastic video. I really appreciated the detailed explanation of all the skips. Keep up the good work.
I seriously love videos like this. I enjoyed the amount of information on the glitches used.
the run was great, but the jokes and editing made it better. good job, DB.
NICE COUNTERPLAY! Also nice editing
Thank you for this super high quality SOTN content !!
Loving the edits and jokes you added, not to mention the pretty clean run you did. Congrats man!
Amazing! I didn't know there was this category of speedrunning, loved it. Amazing video and GG
0:58 - lmao the "DIE MONSTER" please make that a feature on your live stream for donos or something lmfao
This video was entertaining throughout, I love the detailed commentary! GGs on the run
Such cool format, I love it!
NICE COUNTERPLAY
Amazingly good video; humor and facts from my favorite videogame. Keep up the fantastic work!
I love speedruns and I love Castlevania. Never thought to look up anything SotN speedrun related. Thank you recommended! Also fantastic video! I never knew there were this many glitches in SotN!!!!
Well DB did say this channel was going to get better quality videos And damn right he did make better quality videos, it was fun watching
This video was awesome! Great breakdowns of the cool skips!!!
Epic video! Love to see this!
Very informative video DB. You can tell you poured a lot of time to make this one. Unrelated, but I struggle to pull off a single wing smash let alone managing to chain multiple wing smashes together.
yo I love this video, would be great to see more like it!
You did a very good explanation in this video and an awesome run!
I finished this game upwards of 25 times and I didn't knew at least half of the glitches you used for this single run, lmao PS: Also, this has to be the best speedrun video-essay I've seen. Just the highlights, and explanation of how and why for each glitch (and holy fuck, there's a lot of them) AND top it off with great humor. "Ah, Alucard, we meet again. Goddamn it, he left again". Absolute gold.
I love your commentary on this. It was funny as heck
Neat explanations and a very fun video overall.
Best video so far imo. Keep it up dude! congrats!!! ps.: eletric bugaloo gets me every time lol

I know this is my 3rd comment here. But can't help but praise the significant improvement on your edits, DB. This is by far the most creative, funny yet informative video you've released yet.

Awesome video keep em coming.
This video is a masterpiece, you outdid yourself.
Nice edit! Well done explanations

This is so cool! I always wanted to try something like this with other metroidvanias. Also, algo boost! :)
And I thought Super Metroid’s RBO was nuts, what a crazy run congrats on another WR
Well done dude that was slick!
You always bring back my love for this game. Thanks so much for what you do…
Great run!
I'm actually super interested in RBO runs for any game. Thank you for posting this
Great video. More of this pls
14:44 LMAO such a good Vsauce reference
What a walk through of complicated techniques. Impressive!
big toss sounds like a very cinematic mechanic, kinda love it. Makes me think of fights in manga.
Had watched SotN runs for like 15 years, yet while got the grasp of what was happening due to old sites like Game FAQ, didn't really understood what was happening... Till today Heck, didn't even knew about powerslide... Overall superb video
Excellent video!
1:00 I laughed so hard lol
That "Die Monster" bit at the start killed me.
Always love my db upload
commemtary for your narative of this extream feat of gaming prowess is, as usual, OUTSTANDING! [Shao Khan] you are one of a kind DB, hope you, yo kitties and yo momma are all doing well// have a great day

Olrox isn’t squatting, Dracula is just letting him wait for his son Xorlo in there. No big deal.
Dang speedruns of SOTN are radically different from a normal playthrough
another ace video!

that Richter with a glock, took me by surprise ngl.
I just love it when DB conquers or steals a world record and now winning bounties hell yeah
It's crazy how useful that death skip is. I've been stabbed six times this week alone but i keep dodging him.
Wow, what a champ, im just amazed to the bone just like a kid :0
hello, this video both showed up in my home page, my recommended, and my notifications. nature is healing. . . sort of.
this is amazingly made holy shit
Remember "don't let the bodies hit the floor."
I am just now realizing how much vampire survivors is inspired by castlevania LMAO
Nothing like been Dracula's son to disrespect Dead like that "You work for us, you have no power over me"
Goddamit! 8:40 that was me XD Also, mom wants to know if you're calling her or not.
