It's fun to watch NMG TAS runs that don't noclip through walls, styling on bosses with sublime technique.

Ah yes, Soma is back. Hopping around like a Flea-man in 4k.

Sky fish be like: Woah! what was that?!

Soma isn't Dracula reincarnated, he's just juicing real hard.

You just moved into your sick new castle and some angsty teenage schoolboy starts wavedashing up your stairs towards you. What do you do?

GBA doesn't even output at 240p, its native resolution is much worse: 240x160! 4k obviously wont help a game like this look any better but the reason encodes all get the 4k treatment is because of the way KZread works: higher bitrate source material makes YT allot more bits to its own encoding, so you get less compression artifacts at all resolutions as a result.

Soma wore the "Casual Clothes" for basically the whole run. Dracula just got shit on by a college student in basketball shorts.

I just love this game too much, honestly.

These TAS's have already been encoded, just not in the highest quality. These new encodes are to enhance the presentation.

@GreenZinfidel

3 жыл бұрын

There was a reasonably high-quality encode of this TAS that got corrupted by some changes that KZread made to the way it serves video a few years back, and that corruption was only noticed (or at least, logged publicly on the forums) recently. There's a list of encodes that need attention that publishers work through as they can and it just took until now for this TAS's turn to come up.

This is why you don't brew your coffee with redbull

Loved the gameplay and played myself as well (finished) but I can't stop thinking where does the Castlevania style (effort) was put? You have literally different styles and characters yet they still feel like Castlevania but when I see this game or Dawn Of Sorrow the level goes like from 10 to 6, and I liked OoE and PoR which are very similar but again the story just like the "color" and not talking about the OST falls terribly, Julius seems very useless even if he was being helped by Charlotte to kill Vlad in 1999 game that never came either, so not so sure if I am the only one or should see the game in another perspective?

Man this guy is so slow “Press L to back dash” The TAS: “ Movement aquired”

Omg

Can we please, as fans of speedrunning and Castlevania, come together and popularize "No-Back-Dash" speed runs? I know it's not as fast but my ears bleed whenever I watch a speedrun like this, especially when I can't hear the great music!

I never played this but it's cool and funny how to speed run this game, Im sure your thumbs is hurting after you finish thus speed run

This is a Tool Assisted Speedrun, all the commands are pre-programed by someone going frame by frame through the game to stablish the fastest time they can run the game in, but I'm pretty sure RTA runners also use a similar technique, just not to the crazy extent of a TAS imputing at 60hz
