Ugh… I'll definitely listen to this in the background. 😀 This is insane!
I was thinking about the speedrun type that I'd be the most interested in doing myself, I'm sure others did it before in some form, but my idea was…
Identify X number of ghosts on each map on a certain difficulity in a row without leaving through the menu, misidentifying, dying, or using any glitch!
The easiest would be 1 ghost per map on Amateur. The absolute maniac version would be something like 10 ghosts on each map, on Insanity, or on some higher custom mode.
I'd also put the maps on "shuffle", so something like using Wheel of Names to go through them one by one randomly instead of repeating the same map X times before going forward.
Also… that would be pretty much so hard that I'd not even try to speedrun it. It would be a great challenge on its own just to complete something like 5 per each map on Nightmare without any mistake.
I really think you're onto something here. You've found a genuinely fun way to RTA a game where speedrunning previously didn't make much sense by significantly upping the consistency requirement, which is the most fun thing to watch in a speedrun. I wanna see a world where people stop trying to showcase speedruns of this on a per-level basis and focus more on this type of skill expression. 10 ghosts, 25 ghosts, 50 ghosts, 100 ghosts would be significantly more interesting categories than the current Individual Level or Off-Category runs that people have tried out. Big respect!
Healthcare workers hate this one trick 3:02 – /s 😀 – love the vids, keep it up Psycho!!!
Loved watching this on Twitch! Watching again here!
I think the first one was a Hantu since it never sped up in LOS.
You had so many non hunters this go around. Waste of time ghosts 😂
Also, I love the shirt. Do you have a merch store??
*big enough screaming
does anyone know how 48:50 was a rev? I thought they speed up in line of sight but I don't see the ghost on his screen
this is my favourite way to play phasmo at the minute!!! Its such a challenge for when you finally know some ghost quirks
next challenge: earning the money lost.
In x24 challenge I found that Yokai doesn't hunt immidiatly while you entering the map or duration between the hunts longer than other ghosts have. Could be a tip.
You are doing amazing keep it going
Would be interested to see how timing would turn out on Woodwind (faster setup + easier to observe the ghost IMO).
If going for XP at least, Woodwind has way faster reps.
Cool, caught the tail end of this run live, now I can see the whole thing! 😁👍
12:40 "I should talk less so I can hear better!" LOL, you know that ain't gonna happen! 😂 Nothing short of hiding during a hunt will have ye be silent. Methinks when DK added the ghost ability to hear ya, I bet he thought "Those Phas Content Creators gonna LOVE this new feature!" 😈
great content, great job! I think it might be start of great series of other crazy challenges 🙂 I would watch the heck out of those! love from Poland ! 🙂
45:05 Ye keep calling those normal speed ghosties "Nothing Special" Be careful DK MAY add that expression to the list of expressions that'll increase the likelihood of the ghosties reacting faster.😆😉😁
56:30 This ghostie may not be nuthin special, but I heard the potato go HOH inside the cabinet. 😆
01:00:25 "I'm going to lose lots of money during this run." I noticed sciencing Phas tends be an expensive proposition. Altho losing 10k in a single 5.5 hrs run gotta be a record in one way or another, LOL! 😆
01:07:07 You're nothi… (smudges) You're an Obake, KILL ME! (Ghost runs away) Psycho chases ghost yelling KILL MEE! 😆😂🤣😅😁
01:14:22 Why did you die? Because it's faster than going back to the truck? Naaah, just admit it: yer too impatient to exit the round normally and find out whether ye called the ghosty correctly! 😆😂🤣😅😉😁👍
Imagine you're a ghost and a random guy just sprints into your house. He calls you names, says you're nothing special, then disappears into thin air.
In round 3 how did you know it was a Thaye and not a Moroi?
Oh my god this man has unlimited free time 😂
02:21:50 You do realize the more ye talk/think about peeing, the more ye end up feelin like ye NEED go sooner? 😆😂🤣😅😉😁
cant believe i listened to a potato saying your not special thanks bye next for six hours haha, this was actually an insane time tho cant lie
03:01:30 So THIS is the infamous pee break I've been hearing about when I jumped into the chat during the live run of this speedrun! Ye said lost one minute? Nah more closer to two minutes.
Spoiler alert…
Ye peed on yer time and missed 5hr 30mins by almost a minute! LOL 😅
03:19:17 20 seconds to mare flipping light switch back off. Yup fastest ID round! 42 seconds total time between landing in van to end run data screen.
03:21:15 +1 on the looping guide! You're better at explaining the process of looping than I. I just do it the way I've worked out which i think is non-standard due to me being effectively deaf in one ear and half deaf in other ear. So no directional hearing abilities, monophonic hearing.
03:21:45 OMG, I've seen ya looping ghosts around that itty bitty coffee table in Tangle living room. Once with a freakin REV no less! 😱 I've managed a normal ghost, but never had the balls to do a Rev around that lil' table!
Maybe a Ghost streak challenge in the future? How many Ghosts in a row without error? (1 Evidence or something not to unfair)
Btw the death animation scene is loud and pretty annoying for me so i have to skip it (just a heads up)
gg my dude
Truly a man worthy of his name
05:19:10 Now I see what ye meant by saying "ANOTHER raichu?" By my count ye had at least 9 or 10, many of them in the last 2 hours or so. And an awfully high ratio of "normal ghosties" instead of the easily IDable ghosties during a hunt, over 2:1 ratio during this run. What's funny is that until now, the ratio was closer to 3:1 normals. 😅
05:20:10 You'd be so pissed at you taking a piss? 🤪😆😁
05:30:24 GG at IDing 100 in 5:30:55. If ye haven't pissed off, ye'd be almost a minute under 5:30. 😱
Still, tis impressive that ye did as well as ye had, considering the absolutely CRAPPY RNG ye got by getting over 50% normal ghosties. Altho ye had many sections where ye had long runs of nothing but normal ghosties!
If you keep doing these I feel like a split every like 25 ghosts might be cool to see if you are ahead or behind of your previous runs.
Can you provoke a hunt by calling its name? Might save some time? (for sub 5 hours :P)
That mistaking jinn/ raiju… I know your pain. I was smashing out levels before I left on holiday and I fooled myself twice by turning off my light exactly as I broke line of sight.
What kind of timer do you use in the top right hand corner? That would be amazing to have for things like smudge timing for spirit test?
