CALL OF DUTY: WORLD AT WAR SECRET ENDING REVEALED 16 YEARS LATER!!! KILL GENERAL AMSEL EARLY! Casually Clutching 2024-04-01 | I'm starting to run out of campaigns to do these for help
Crash Bandicoot 2 NST Any% Speedrun World Record in 39:47 Casually Clutching 2024-02-14 | This run was okay, then good, then barely scraping WR. Please don't watch me try to navigate the warp room after a cutscene, I somehow have forgotten to learn to do that properly for N. Gin and Cortex a ridiculous amount of times now.Honestly this could be beaten on a random Tuesday afternoon, but it's WR so I figured it should go on the main (my second channel is youtube.com/@clutchingsstuff btw).A 39:2X would be a really good run for this category. If somebody very good at the game felt like being very stupid and risked the best pace out of Bear Down ever for the 5% chance at saving 23s in Tiny Tiger (with a 95% chance of killing the run), then a 38 is honestly not even out of the question at all.I'm leaving this run here for now, I'll probably pick the category back up again when it's beaten, but I have too many categories I want to play and too little time to grind this down without something else making it interesting besides a new 10s barrier every other month.Realistic timesaves in order of significance:Dr. N. Gin - 11s, I missed double arms and fudged the entrancePiston It Away - 6s, I missed God cycle. Still managed to catch second depsite the many errors, but the ending was also slowCrash Crush - 6s, general slop, and missing some minor tricksCrash Dash - 5s, missing the easiest hob ever at the end, and missing some other actually tricky stuffCold Hard Crash - 4s, I missed the infinite slide glitch during the 2D section, plus some minor slopRoad To Ruin - 3s, mostly from the small detour for the second maskDr. Neo Cortex - 3, I played far too safe and fudged the entranceThere are less significant things too, but that's all the "big" stuff. This could honestly use improving, but I'm just not going to force myself through that right now... probably.
CALL OF DUTY: BLACK OPS 3 SECRET ENDING REVEALED 7 YEARS LATER!!! KILL TAYLOR EARLY! Casually Clutching 2023-04-01 | Lore-accurate answer
Crash Bandicoot NST Any% Speedrun Former World Record in 40:48 Casually Clutching 2022-07-01 | After 4202 attempts, & 1597 hours on this game on Steam, I did it. I am relatively satisfied with this run, sorry about the pop-off lol. I would definitely like a 40:3X or perhaps even better eventually though. If you have any questions about the run, want my splits, or whatever, feel free to leave a comment or contact me.I'd like to thank the Crash HD Speedrunning community for making this accomplishment not only possible, but enjoyable to attain along the way. The surface, the run you see, it doesn't even come remotely close to showing just how much of a community effort it really took to push this game down - I can thank Diggety Dave for finding the Diggety Dive on Generator Room. WingKn0x for discovering how floaty jumps work & opening up new possibilities such as some of the tricks performed in the creek levels in this run. Tavin for discovering the first known method of making the Sunset Vista hyperjump consistent. Batake & Serenade Yuuki for discovering the stair hyperjump in Slippery Climb, then Silver106 for discovering that you can phase with this hyperjump. CameronVengenz for discovering the Koala Kong glitch, then Boolarbear for making 3 damage Koala Kong consistent & helping us understand what causes 1 damage a whole lot better in order to avoid it. AustinOblivion for discovering fast Brio strats, then Raymandicoot1 for discovering a visual cue to make said strats easily consistent. All of this, among many, many countless other contributions, such as minor timesaves, discoveries, or competition to push the game along the way has helped this speedrun come to fruition. This run - as is every run - is a culmination of a tremendous community effort, & for that I am forever grateful to anyone & everyone who has been a part of this community, thank you.Here is a link to the Crash HD Speedrunning Discord Server: discord.gg/aGjpE6eThis was a part of my "40 Grind" on my Twitch channel, the grind took 80 days of doing any% speedruns in order to obtain the sub:41. You can follow my Twitch at twitch.tv/casuallyclutching, where I will continue to speedrun Crash NST, perhaps among other games in the future.I also tweet sometimes at twitter.com/CasualyClutchin.My Discord: @CasuallyClutching FAQ:Q. Why do you get the green gem in The Lost City?A. This unlocks a major shortcut in Castle Machinery which essentially allows you to skip the level, so it becomes worth it to spend the time of going for the green gem early in order to make up for it with this shortcut later.Q. What was that in Koala Kong?A. The Koala Kong skip is a trick that can save up to approximately 30 seconds (timesave varies due to RNG). It is done in 30FPS by jumping into the large boulder when Koala Kong throws it, then going backwards immediately upon Koala Kong damaging you. Somehow this causes a phase to get past the invisible wall that separates Crash from Koala Kong, Crash can then, for some reason, increase the amount of damage he does to Kong by spinning him directly instead of spinning the boulder back at him. Here is an exemplar for the three damage backup: youtube.com/watch?v=yOMgGSLH8bcQ. Why did you go flying in Slippery Climb & Sunset Vista?A. A hyperjump is a glitch commonly performed in C1 NST speedrunning by either (a) bouncing into a small gap from a box to a pullboard or rotating platform while the pullboard/platform is in some way in motion whilst mashing/holding the jump button or by (b) Bouncing/jumping into an unmovable damage hitbox & mashing/holding the jump button ~ at least, that's how we're pretty sure it works.Q. What is a floaty?A. A floaty jump is a jump where Crash is in the air for longer than normal. Crash has floaties upon loading into a level, & they are removed as soon as Crash spins in the air, once Crash spins in the air, the only way to get floaties back is by exiting then re-entering a level (yes, this mechanic is precisely as odd & stupid as it sounds). In this run, floaties are carefully kept in the levels Upstream, Up The Creek, & Jaws of Darkness. There are tricks in the first two levels mentioned that are borderline impossible without floaties, but in Jaws of Darkness I keep floaties out of personal preference. Here is a comparison between floaties, & non-floaties jumps: media.discordapp.net/attachments/970013854711042098/970035649354809474/Floaty_Guide_for_Yuuki.mp4Q. What is Nokia Skip?A. The greatest skip in the game. It saves 2 seconds by making an earlier pullboard cycle if performed correctly. In this run, Nokia Skip was performed at 15:34Resources for major glitches & other miscellaneous timesaves in this speedrun can be found here: speedrun.com/crashnst/guidesThe community gold spreadsheet, where you can see how fast a split can be, & if compared, my timesaves in this run: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1sUgD7P-e36WI9JWWEgCfu_og-gEV9CQy7P0ILk9PazQThe leaderboards: speedrun.com/crashnst

Crash Bandicoot NST Any% Speedrun Former World Record in 42:07 Casually Clutching 2021-08-31 | THIS IS NO LONGER WORLD RECORD! The current world record can be seen here:speedrun.com/crashnstDISCLAIMER:This is a reupload, and has music playing over other music at some parts, and very small portions of audio cut out so that I don't get claimed. Sorry about that.This run is dedicated to the previous world record holder with a 1,117 day long reign, AustinOblivion. Without his help, I wouldn't have been able to make this achievement. twitch.tv/austinoblivion_I also appreciate the entire Crash HD Speedrunning community. The community has only been great to me since I started speedrunning this game. A link to join the server can be found on the leaderboards. I'm also beyond more than happy to help out anybody getting into the game, feel free to drop a comment or add my Discord; CasuallyClutching#5527It's a little bit embarrassing that I couldn't do math for a huge chunk of this run, so I didn't even recognize it as world record pace until The Great Hall. Excited to improve upon this and run other categories/games alongside it, such as All Gems and CoD: Zombies :)This was streamed to my Twitch channel. I'm responding to chat a lot in this video, the context of which can be found here: twitch.tv/videos/1130192024FAQ:Q. Why do you get the green gem in The Lost City?A. This unlocks a major shortcut in Castle Machinery which essentially allows you to skip the level, so it becomes worth it to waste the time of going for the green gem early in order to make up for it with this skip later.Q. What did you do in Koala Kong?A. The Koala Kong skip is a trick that can save up to approximately 30 seconds (times vary due to RNG). It is done by jumping into the large boulder when Koala Kong throws it, then going backwards immediately upon Koala Kong damaging you, then going forward again. Somehow this gives enough height to get past the invisible wall that separates Crash from Koala Kong, Crash can then double the amount of damage he does to Kong by spinning him instead of spinning the boulder back at him. Here are a few resources for it, such as tutorials and a way of doing 3 damage as a backup; youtube.com/watch?v=78luQY-DO5E, youtube.com/watch?v=nqHfFgJIwSs, youtube.com/watch?v=yOMgGSLH8bcQ. Why did you go flying in Slippery Climb?A. A hyperjump is a glitch commonly performed in C1 NST speedrunning by either (a) bouncing into a pullboard/rotating platform while the pullboard/platform is in some way in motion whilst mashing/holding the jump button or by (b) Bouncing/jumping into an unmovable damage hitbox and mashing/holding the jump button. Here are good resources for the concept of a hyperjump; youtube.com/watch?v=vntmOkCPUZo, youtube.com/watch?v=kWrnEUXIBnYQ. What is Nokia Skip?A. The greatest skip in the game. It saves 2s, by making an earlier pullboard cycle if performed correctly, which, unfortunately, it was not in this run. clips.twitch.tv/CrazyOnerousLaptopDoubleRainbow-axVg-1El-oKLKCzfRealistic Timesave:Native Fortress: +2s -Not being fast enough to get the mask along with the God cycle in order to damage abuse a flame to skip a pullboard cycle in The Lost CityThe Lost City: +12s -Missing God cycle, missing Nokia skip very badly, messing up in the Brio bonus, messing up in the Tawna bonus.Temple Ruins: +4s -Taking damage on a flame, therefore missing out on mask form and missing a cycle.Sunset Vista: +11s -Missing the hyperjump, not getting a second mask to damage abuse in Heavy Machinery.Koala Kong: +4s -Not incredible RNG, waiting out the invincibility-frames to avoid potentially only getting one damage instead of instantly spinning, subpar menuing.Heavy Machinery: +2.5s -Extremely sloppy final climb.Slippery Climb: +11s -Not taking the bird hyperjump all the way to the roof, therefore having to drop down and get the backup damageless hyperjump instead, the process of dropping down to get it was extremely sloppy.Lights Out: +1s -Barely catching a good cycle, missed the portal at the end initially.Dr. Nitrus Brio +3s -Terrible RNG, got a bad frame doing the exploit where you jump on his head during the transition, so he walked forward for a little bit before opening his hitbox to be damaged again.Total Realistic Timesave: 50.5s.I could realistically push this category down to under 41:30 eventually, although it would be quite hard. Will have to see how I feel, will definitely push it down further from here though.Community Golds Spreadsheet:docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1sUgD7P-e36WI9JWWEgCfu_og-gEV9CQy7P0ILk9PazQ/edit#gid=0Follow me on Twitch for more Crash/Zombies speedrunning livestreaming content:twitch.tv/casuallyclutchingMy Twitter:twitter.com/casualyclutchin

(Former-WR) Mob of the Dead Easter Egg Speedrun Solo in 21:52 (Black Ops II Zombies) Casually Clutching 2020-09-23 | This is no longer WR, the new WR will be shown at the top of these leaderboards:zwr.gg/leaderboards/bo2/ee-speedrun/mob-of-the-deadAt this point good RNG is required for a run, so good that there's less than a 1/15th of a chance of even getting a run past 3 minutes. RNG as good as this? Much, much lower. So I'm done with this until it gets beaten. :)Follow me on Twitch to see when I run Origins in the near-future! (Updated 21/04/2021)twitch.tv/casuallyclutchingThanks to Blaidan for the strategy I stole: youtube.com/user/BlaidanMCThanks to mmjp08 for sharing his tips and findings with me: youtube.com/channel/UCgtkyG1bpG9Fx3RuTzajL3gPlease visit both of these channels ^ :)FAQ:- The solo Easter Egg speedrun is impossible on this map. We consider the solo Easter Egg to be finished when your screen goes from black and white to colour after you're finished listening to the final audio powerup, as this is the last step possible on solo. On all co-op speedruns the clock finishes when the real Easter Egg is completed.- I play on Plutonium, which is a modded version of Black Ops II Zombies. The only aspect of it I used was the fast restart. Using Plutonium without changing relevant game files does not invalidate a speedrun.- This took 1007 attempts total since Blaidan released his new and superior strategy. More than half the restarts were done in the first few seconds of the game.SOCIALS:Twitter: twitter.com/CasualyClutchinTwitch: twitch.tv/casuallyclutchingSubscribe if you were entertained, and despite the massive drought of videos, expect more speedrunning soon as I want to start uploading PB's as well.
