Would you say this video is informative and interesting, or pointlessly autistic?
>>323956537
All that trouble to just to beat the level in a few jumps.
Nothing is worth that much pain
>>323956537
It's pretty goddamn interesting. I am seriously amazed at how anyone can possibly figure all this shit out.
I checked out his other videos, but it was mostly dull and repetitive. Way too much focus on minimal A presses.
>>323957310
>what is TAS
Nigger you don't know.
>>323956537
I watched this a few days ago
he basically describes how he got that to work in minuet detail, so to answer your question it's all fucking 3. If you watched the original video you'd probably wonder how the hell he did that (the informative part), how Mario gains speed, and how objects react to him/how collision checking works (the interesting part), and how much time he spent gathering all that speed so he could teleport through those meshes on the hill (the pointlessly autistic part)
doesn't make it any less cool though, Mario 64 is still one of the best 3D games of all time and lot of love went into designing it. How do you think the programmers would react to seeing someone master their creation? It's their life work
Yes
>>323957310
People have been doing things for the sake of doing them since before you were born.
In fact that's probably WHY you were born.
>>323957365
His video on max coin counts is pretty fascinating.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dokE1J5wlhE
>>323956537
Great video, very well edited.
It's interesting and informative and incredibly autistic
advanced autism
Interesting
I mean I know it's autistic to get into shit like this, but I don't care. Little technical shit is kinda cool to me.
>>323957453
sauce on this autism? I need some cringe
>>323957670
>OVER 12 HOURS TO GET 1 STAR
FULL AUTISM
>"it's only a half-press because I hold it down for a long time and it doesn't count as a whole press unless you release the button"
>releases the button so he can press it again to get the star
Does he not see the flaw in this?
>>323957453
I wouldn't call it autism, but strong christian brain washing.
I been around enough crazy christian, to know how quickly they lose their shit.
>>323956537
Well. I guess it's interesting in that it sheds light on some mechanics.
But beyond that, holy autism, Batman.
>>323957964
>releases the button so he can press it again to get the star
He didn't tho
Why not both?
It's incredibly interesting, and incredibly, incredibly autistic
>>323957836
This kid is fun at parties
>>323956537
autism and interesting
>>323958138
He explained it as 2.5 A presses, the first of which being the so-called "half-press", so he would indeed have to press it two more times, which means he released it, making it, by his definition, a full press
>>323957453
The camera vibrating fucks with my brain.
>>323956537
Pure concentrated autism but it was a really interesting watch.
>>323957948
he does it on an emulator so he speeds it up, it probably takes him more time to do the calculations than to actual put it all into motion
>>323957836
dont leave me hanging this is some quality autism i need to watch
I find it interesting as a concept, but not interesting enough to watch the whole thing.
I think a parakeet on a tennis ball is pretty interesting, too.
>>323958284
2.5 was for Wing Mario over the Rainbow, not Hazy Maze.
"Half" is only indicated for these single star videos, in the full game run a half press will be part of another full press.
>>323958518
https://youtu.be/h1QEIu6jgkk?t=33
>you will never be this excited for a consumer product
>>323956537
This freak has done this for every level in the game more or less. He's a complete and total loser. Even if you love Super Mario 64 there's no reason to waste hundreds of hours trying to beat every level in some obscure obfuscated way.
you're asking a weird question.
to anyone who doesn't get speedrunning, they'd shut your video off in 30 seconds and call you a raging autist.
for someone actually interested in speedrunning, it was informative and interesting, if not a little too verbose / drawn-out.but in all honesty it's the speedrunning category that's autistic and any talk of shaving off 1/2 of a button press is going to come off as autistic no matter what.
>>323957310
>a few jumps
He did it in half a jump
Don't feel like watching it again to see; How does he actually jump from PU to PU without just going crazy and sliding everywhere? Does he press b or something and near instantly teleports? I'm guessing he used a lot of save states to trial and error the exact locations and stuff
>>323958626
>2.5 was for Wing Mario over the Rainbow, not Hazy Maze.
Doesn't matter, the same principle applies. He shouldn't be dead fucking wrong when he's explaining it. Does Hazy Maze END with the half-press or does he have to press A again? Because if he EVER releases A before getting the star, then, by his definition, it is a full press
>>323958827
What happens is, during that whole segment, his speed is gradually decreasing, and once it reaches the right number, the game THINKS that Mario is on his way to solid ground, so he warps from spot to spot as soon as his speed falls to the right point.
He needed the 12 hours to get his speed high enough to make his route without building any speed in the middle of it, see.
i respect anyone who can dedicate that much time to something so silly. i doubt i'll ever love anything as much as that guy loves TASing SM64
Also as a side goal, this guy brutally raped emptyhero's slowrunning record
>half-press
You can't 'half-press' something. To press an object is to exert force on it. Letting go of A is 'releasing', not pressing.
He could claim that he beat the level without pressing A since he pressed it before entering the level.
Still an interesting video, though.
>>323957964
>>323958284
>>323958854
He pressed a before he entered the area, and let go right at the end. It's called a half A press, because if it were a whole A press he could use that initial jump from pressing a to gain some height somewhere. "0.5 A Press" is basically just the name given to this harder category where you never actually get to press a to jump as he was already holding down a before he entered.
The only thing that would impress me is if the guy 100% the game without dying and with the screen off.
This is babby loser mode.
>study a game and cheat at it to do stupid shit
>instead of playing and breaking a game you don't understand
Fucking bakas
>>323959105
Oh right, I forgot about the whole collision checking thing, I understand now. Thanks anon.
>>323958854
Presses a, goes into the level, then releases a in the level. When you look at the complete run, it would be one press; press, hold, release. If you look at the level by itself, like in the video, it's a half-press; hold, release.
>>323958854
>>323959319
>guy fucking explains in depth for 5 minutes the difference between a full and half a press
>retards on /v/ still can't understand what he's talking about
>>323956537
>>323959465
He's talking about bullshit
He's pretending that the button was just held down on it's own and he never pressed A to jump like only a few seconds ago
>>323956537
this is autism of the highest form and i don't give a fuck about some 30 year old shitty mario game so its ont interesting
it is pretty autistically informative though, i'll give it that even though i only watched 1 minute.
>>323956537
I like this stuff. I love this guy's 255 coin limit video better. It's just cool shit.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dokE1J5wlhE
>>323959465
He's pushing a flawed definition. Just because a radical liberal spends an hour explaining how gender is a social construct doesn't make it correct.
The guy in the video is using a technicality to beat the level without pressing A. He releases at the end, which is entirely different from a press.
>>323959596
Are you completely 100% retarded to the point you can't understand basic logic?
>press A to jump into the level
>never release the button until you need to jump into the star
>release A
>jump twice while only pressing A once.
>each jump is half of the button press
Shit is fucking simple
>>323958672
kek
No anon. This isn't autism. Autism is something that only exists in medical books or on TV dramas.
This is deep love.
>>323959596
he never said anything like that dumbass
Press A at some point in the castle - | Enter Level | - Hold A - Release A - | Complete Level |
For a full game play, including castle, which this will be a part of, it'll be a full press. For this specific star, this level alone, it's a half press, because he never actually pressed the A button in the level.
>>323959815
ok now you're arguing semantics, and by you're retarded logic it's even more impressive as he's gotten the star with 0 A presses.
>holy shit this is pretty fucking autistic
>get to the part where he waits 12 hours to build up speed and starts talking about parallel universes within the game
>brain explodes
>>323959776
guess what? not only is this video 25 minutes but he has dozens of videos like this.
he's done this for almost every level in the game.
>>323957836
He's having a great time I betcha
>.5 button press
>he pushes B all the time
Shit video tbqh. If you push B to function as A, it really doesn't matter. Pointless, retarded gimmick.
He's interesting. The normies on /v/ don't understand being really interested in things. They are boring people who are disinterested in everything and view interest in things as weird.
>>323960096
B doesn't jump you fucking mong
>>323958720
There's no "reason" to play any game, anon.
>>323959989
>he never actually pressed the A button in the level
No
Fuck this BULLSHIT
You can't just say "what happens outside the level doesn't count", when clearly it's just as necessary as anything else when it comes to completing the star using this method
Might as well say "I beat the game in under 1 second. Oh, the several hours it took me to get to the ending don't count though"
>>323956537
guy speaks with a gay lisp, so yes, it's autism
>>323960152
You do a kick that's the equivalent of a short jump.
>>323960051
It's even more impressive when you realize he only works on this shit like 1 day a week.
He's a full time teacher and goes to college part time working toward a graduate degree in computer science.
>>323956537
Why dont you state your opinon OP, I bet you like the video but are too much of a tool that you want /v/ yo tell you If you should.
>>323956537
>you will never push against a wall for 12 hours to build up enough speed to travel to a parallel universe

Are you 100% literally mentally challenged to the point you can't understand what's happening?

OP is the YouTuber who created it and he posted here to get more clicks
>>323960026
> it's even more impressive as he's gotten the star with 0 A presses.
It is. That's what I'm saying.
I'm just pointing out that there's no way you can 'half-press' something.
>>323956537
This is Ulilililililililia-tier OCD
>okay he's talking about what a half press is

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8TGalu36BHA
If this is autism then it's the beautiful kind.
>>323960415
I understand. But it doesn't make me disregard the initial button press and I don't see why anyone would
>>323960623
because you're a complete fucking imbecile who doesn't understand this is a single part of a full game run.
God damn the word autism has been used 50 times in this thread but it applies to you more than the guy in the video.
>>323957440
>master their creation
More like he mastered the way the system hardware rounds up floating point operations. It's autism not the love for the game design or the game itself. He might aswell try o fuck the cpu
>>323960623
It's because it's considering a full game run.
A run of just this level necessitates a single A button press. A run of the full game would have had an A button press prior to the level, so he'd just need to continue holding it down, and wouldn't tack on another button press.
You round down with a full run, and round up with a single level run. He explains this.
>Mario can build up so much speed that he can go to parallel universes
How can Sonic even compete?
>mfw casuals on /v/ still haven't beaten the game using only 1 A press for every level
What's your excuse
>>323960834
>It didn't count
Whatever. Why not just pretend you didn't even pull off a half-press at that point? Just tell everyone that one didn't count either and you never actually pushed A the entire time you played the game and in fact you weren't even holding the controller
>>323961126
kek
>all these niggas acting like a half press is some unbelievable concept
it's so fucking simple I don't get why you can't grasp it.
>>323960809
his youtube channel is watch me rape Mario 64: The Movie, he made a game out of playing a game in a very strange way
I just wonder if he has a job IRL and what else he does in his spare time
>>323961159
Who are you quoting?
i love this video
he should write a sci fi movie about video games
>>323956537
Why can't it be both?
>>323956537
It's applied autism
>>323961159
>>323959465
These are the kinds of people that just write off the video as "autism" and leave it at that
They aren't exactly interested in actually trying to understand anything that isn't an ebin meme
>>323961301
He's a full time teacher, and takes college classes part time working on a graduates computer science degree
Imagine all these nerds invested their autism into rocket engineering or cancer research.
>>323961321
Have you read this masterpiece?
>>323961126
yeah well, i bet you had to TAS it.
>>323961708
forgot the pic
>>323957964
he pressed b while holding a which triggers an air kick
>TAS
Literally doesn't matter at all. Entire shit is ruined because he had to cheat to do it.
>>323957475
W-what?
>>323961928
Now this is autism.
>>323959596
okay I'm gonna try to break this down for you as simply as possible.
>>323956537
This guy could work at NASA.
Instead he does this
>>323958672
Do you think you could get the same reaction out of him if someone could show you a high-end desktop PC?
>>323962383
>this guy could work at NASA
Then what does that make the people that developed the game? Gods?
People dick riding this faggot fail to understand that he's involved in a community of hundreds of people that all find tricks to exploit. He didn't do this shit on his own.
>half a press
okay i get it, but why
>scuttlebug phsics
interesting, but what's the application
>movement
okay that's cool
>"now we're going to wait 12 hours to build up another speed"
paused to comment here...what the fuck is wrong with this person?
>>323956537
So this is how the competitive community for non-Versus games look like? It's not bad, it's just oddly different.
I knew the backwards long jump works because there's no cap on Mario's backwards speed, but this is on another levelof autism.
>>323961839
Nah, only saw his videos.
what about the documentary they were shooting?Did it got cancelled?
>>323962383
If he worked at NASA he probably wouldn't get far because he probably wouldn't care.
This kind of logic is so fucking stupid. Just because someone knows something inside and out doesn't mean they could easily apply that to anything. Being smart is 75% caring enough to learn about something. If I only cared about discovering mario glitches that wouldn't do me much good in an anatomy or biology course.
>>323957475
I want him to do more commentary videos where he explains glitches.
The in-depth explanation of binary was probably unnecessary but at least it's a good lesson. There's also this one that's pretty good:

>>323962703
>parallel universes
jesus christ what is fucking happening
>>323962383
so he shouldn't be doing something he enjoys, but instead something you would enjoy
>>323960484
>I'm just pointing out that there's no way you can 'half-press' something.
Yes you can, if your definition of 'half-press' is the same one as the one in the video.
I want to say this is not video games because everything about it is so far removed from the realm of video games it can't possibly be treated as such.
Pretty interesting stuff though.
>>323962383
Fuck off. He does what he likes.
>>323960623
I explained why in a different post. It's because the initial button press wasn't in the course, so he doesn't actually get to A jump within the course. In this way what we'd call a "0.5 A press run" is harder than a "1 A press run" because he doesn't actually get to jump using A while in a "1 A press run" you do get to use that initial A press to jump somewhere and give you some height..
Damn interesting.
>>323962947
>jumping
why bother
>>323962947
now im missing this dude's commentary
what the fuck is happening
>>323962995
Do you believe IN SOCIETY'S LIES?
>>323963271
But he pushes B which is the equivalent of an A jump, so the entire premise of this shit is retarded.
>>323963337
This guy's description of how things work gives me ASMR
>>323963271
>because the initial button press wasn't in the course
So what? His arbitrary rule about pressing A before entering the course is supposed to mean something to me?
It's bullshit. He fucking pressed A, and everyone in this thread knows it
>>323956537
Is this the new Ulililia?
https://youtu.be/0NA_Nq7oZZU
I guess Mario really WAS training for the ninja warrior tournament...
>>323957836
If he keeps doing that for 12 hours he builds up enough speed to get to a parallel dimension.
>>323962995
Tool Assisted Superruns, anon
It's for a challenge, basically. Like a nuzlocke run but without memes and with an extra serving of cool autism
>>323963452
If B is equivalent to A can you do the whole game just by pressing B?
>>323963510
You might be even more autistic than that YouTuber, anon.
>>323963452
>Pressing B is the same of an A jump
Can you post a 25 minute video proving your claim?
No you cant because what it's not true
>tfw he'll never be able to kill the mystery goomba
>>323963662
Yes, if we want to go autistic enough.
>>323963737
How is he jumping in the video if he's not hitting A? Because B lets you jump while moving.
>>323963510
why is this so hard to understand
>>323962325
>>323963510
I just explained why it matters, jesus christ
it's because if he had pressed A INSIDE the course he'd get a "free" jump
in a 0.5 A button run (where he presses A OUTSIDE the course) he gets no "free" jumps and has to rely on the little B button hops instead
>>323963756
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEBMaAoKRvw
>>323963834
So pressing B is the same thing as pressing A? I'm just making sure I'm following you properly here.
>>323963365
DO YOU BELIEVE IN THE LIES OF SOCIETY
>>323956537
>I build up speed for 12 hours
>>323963984
It's the equivalent of a regular jump with A, yes.
>>323956537
>12 hours later
Is this nigga serious?
>>323963510
>He fucking pressed A, and everyone in this thread knows it
He knows it too, but he pressed it outside the level, so the A press will count for outside the level, not inside.
If you want to choose a completely different counting system where your A press is counted only when you release the A button, then the segment before the level will have one less A press even though he pressed A but didn't released it. Same problem.
>>323963913
>0.5
Stop saying this, he pushed it once
>>323964080
you're joking, right?
If the B button was the same as pressing the A button then he wouldn't need to do this shit that everyone is calling autistic just to beat a level.
It may be autism but he's not wrong about the A press.
The A is pressed before the level is loaded. In the level itself he only uses half of an A press.
It's reasonable and logical, but I don't expect /v/ to accept it because we're faggots.

Are you that autistic you're responding without seeing the video?
>>323964196
>The A is pressed before the level is loaded.
So? He still pressed it. That's all that matters.
I don't know what fucking magic shit you guys think entering the level does that suddenly makes you disregard everything that ever happened beforehand
>>323958754
>half a jump
autistic
>>323964336
>He still pressed it. That's all that matters.
Yes, all that matters is that he pressed it before entering the level.
>>323964164
As I've said several times before, a "0.5 A run" is just the name that makes the most sense to describe not actually getting to press A while in the level and instead having to rely on only holding it down. You might just be trolling me at this point, and if so, good job at triggering my autism so hard.
>>323964336
>being bad at math and logic
>>323956537
Interesting and autism. He's done this to the entire game, SM64 in 35 A presses.
>>323961671
>rocket engineering
John Carmack did that for a while
>>323964186
That's my argument. It's retarded. You can see for yourself, how is he jumping in the game? With the B button. So he literally gimped himself for a retarded ".5 A button press" even though he's hitting B the whole way. AND it's TAS on top of it.
Just not impressive to me.
>>323963607
video games aren't challenging enough for some people
they have to tie a Black Mamba snake to their dick and shove a controller in their ass to make things more difficult
>>323963916
This is like quantum physics. Truly bizarre.
>>323964538
You have to hold a to do the b kick.
I'd like to have that dedication in my projects
>>323964538
But you can only do certain jumps by pressing A, no matter how much you hit B it won't be possible to do them.
Pressing A and pressing B isn't the same.
What the fuck did I just watch?
>>323964336
stop thinking of "0.5 presses" as a number. it's just a label to describe a more abstract concept.
important thing to understand here, is the difference between a full run and just the level. when you're looking at just the level, obviously you need an A press. looking at the full run, however you dont have to press A inside the level at all, it was pressed before the level, and counts for the previous level's A presses.
the reason he doesn't say "0 A presses" for that level is because yes, it was pressed at some point. it helps differentiate between a level that ACTUALLY involves 0 A presses, and levels where an A press involved is actually pressed in a different level
do you understand yet? let me know if you need me to try to explain it to you from another angle here. i can draw pictures if you'd like
>>323964231
I think it's beautiful. He has such an indepth understanding of the game that he can do things that are all but impossible for us to comprehend. I've watched his other videos. I have never seen Mario speed runners do things like this before.
If you showed this to the programmers of Mario 64, I'm sure they would be amazed and want to know more about it.
>>323964730
I never said they were equal, I said they were equivalent. Hitting B let's you get a normal A jump. Of course they don't function exactly the same.
>>323956537
That was beautiful. Why aren't we distributing this autism stuff to everyone worldwide so we can evolve and be a species where everyone is autistic?
>>323964336
the dive and air kicks won't work unless he's holding A, he should have really called the videos "Mario64 while holding A most of the time"
>>323964614
And fun.
>>323964538
>Just not impressive to me.
This motherfucker figured out how to warp through parallel universes after building up speed for hours and you just want to split hairs
>>323964978
some people would rather eat mcdonalds and post on twitter

it's...nice, anon.
You're right, this shit is...
It's digital magic.
>>323964978
This guy gets it
>>323964854
It sounds like a math nerd trying to glorify the fact that he didn't jump, and he thinks so highly of himself that he has the audacity to claim that his initial button press doesn't count because he was outside the stage when it happened
>>323964927
>Hitting B let's you get a normal A jump.
No it doesn't.
That's why they're not equal or equivalent.
>>323965061
He didn't, someone else did. He's explaining how it works for his retarded run. Keep sucking his dick though.
>>323965061
He didn't figure it out. His videos are all bases on years of accumulated discoveries of others.
Anyone have any other vidya channels like this they can recommend. Just real dry dissertations on games with nothing but footage and adequate visual aids. No frills, no self-footage, no sketches, no memes and other shit attempts at humor. Just talking about games.
>>323956537
>that one where he gets the star on top of the snowman in Snowman's Land without an A press
>>323965159
it's more used to relate to a whole run overall. doing that star will not incur any additional presses over a run.

His voice is totally unbearable so I won;t watch this video even though I might conceivably find some of it interesting. I cannot stand people who sound like this. Super Bunny Hop is another piece of trash that sounds like this and I hope they are all dragged into the street and shot like dogs.
It's pretty fucking awesome. This guy's so much better than Ulillillia, since at least he has a lot to show for his work and how much effort he puts into every little thing.
Uli just has some demo that won't come out until 2020, and he played a lot of bubsy 3d.

You didn't see the Morpheus meme?
Or did that one not count because he did it before he entered the stage?

>>323965159
Do you acknowledge that this run would be much easier if he was allowed to press A during the run to get a jump out of it? If so, do you understand that a run in which he starts with A already held down is more challenging than one in which he's allowed to press A in-run? That they are basically different runs and have to be distinguished?
>>323956537

As far as I understand it, Mario went so far out of bounds that the collision model started glitching out and wrapping around.
>>323965159
okay pictures it is then
>>323965674
No it doesn't.
>>323965951

it's like the whole "half an A press" thing. It's just a term to describe a concept in a way that makes simple sense.
>>323965996
Yes it does

>>323964927
>Hitting B let's you get a normal A jump. Of course they don't function exactly the same.
Have you ever even fucking played Mario 64?
Press B while holding A lets him do a little Kick, but B doesn't make you jump like you seem to believe
>>323965674
It literally does not. You're either baiting or aggressively autistic.

Autism has evolved.
>>323965883
I understand he is doing it because it's a challenge.
I don't understand why he pretends that his button press doesn't count when he's outside the stage. He pressed it, it doesn't matter what part of the game he pressed it in. To say that it didn't happen is bullshit.
He pressed the A button. 1 time. Not a half a time.

I bet you're one of those fags that insist on calling them Seastars instead of Starfish.
Is Mario the most powerful video game character ever made? I mean, Mario can literally travel to a parallel dimension if he walks in place long enough to build up enough speed. He can also kill the sun, and there will still be daylight.

Definitely pointlessly autistic.
>>323965687
Uli deleted his youtube, did he not?
>>323966264
>I don't understand why he pretends that his button press doesn't count when he's outside the stage.
Nobody's saying he didn't press A. Notice it's called a 0.5x A press run, not a 0 A press run.
>>323966307
This is about A presses, not jumps. Your autism is out of control.
>>323966307
No one is talking about jumps, what matters is the number of times he presses A.
Is the video called
Watch for Rolling Rocks - 0.5x Jumps?
No, it's called Watch for Rolling Rocks - 0.5x A Presses.
>>323957836
Is this the "it's a meme you dip" kid?
>>323965687
You're forgetting that Uli grinded to level 99 in the very first zone of FF7.
>>323966553
>>323966545
And I'm saying the no A gimmick is retarded if you're going to use B as A anyway. It's a pointless gimp, on top of being TAS.
>>323966495
>he doesn't know how TASes work
I guess /v/ really doesn't know anything about videogames.
>>323966525
he switched to Daily Motion because he hates Youtube.
>>323966545
>0.5
No
there's no 0.5
You either press the button or you don't
I don't give a FUCK if he enters a new area while holding it down, he still pressed the goddamn button
>>323966803
shut up already, faggot
HOLY SHIT THIS FUCKING DUDE
>>323956537
Absolutely all of the above. Would watch more.
>>323966803
It's not my fault you're too stupid to understand half a press.
>>323966803
>he still pressed the goddamn button
But he didn't press it on the level, "Henry".
>>323966803
I agree with you. If he pressed it down and held it for the entire level to have the effect of the button, it counts as a full press when he lets go.
So it would be one long half press, the entire time he held it.
>>323966720
TASing doesn't automatically find you a path through 6 QPU-aligned random triangles in ascending order that lead you to a fucking elevator.
>>323966713
>>323966307
I'm not defending the guy, I'm just calling you a retard because you don't know how the controls for Mario 64 work.
If you weren't such a sperg you'd have realized thats why I posted the controls for you, you melon.

>averageappleuser
>>323966803
I think I found the real autist here.
>>323966720
If he used TAS then it's still autistic and even less impressive.
Either way, it's a shitty waste of time.
>there are people who, instead of playing lots of fun games, would rather spend YEARS on just one shitty Nintendo game to get as good at it as humanly possible
>>323966474
Goddamn it henry yoshi... :(
Can you imagine how much of his life he spent and is spending on not only making this video but playing this game?
>>323966803
>No
>there's no 0.5
He clearly defined what 0.5 is in the video, so there is a 0.5.
Answer me this: Did he press A outside the level? Inside? Both?
If you want to say both because he started to press it outside, kept holding it and released it inside the level, then you see that when only considering what happens inside the level there is only 0.5.
>>323967045
Fascinating. You have a blog?
>ITT
>>323958556
>I find it interesting as a concept, but not interesting enough to watch the whole thing.
It just keeps getting better and better as he goes on.
>>323966803
I dont know how to explain it any more clearly.
If he went from the beginning of the game to the end, its one button press.
but segmented within the confines of this one level, like an IL, its .5, because you pressed A earlier, and didnt need to release it.
>>323966713
>using B as A
Those buttons do completely different things. Have you played Mario 64?
>>323967250
>humanely
No, as TAS as possible.
>>323966803
Yeah, this entire chain of posts IS pointlessly autistic.
>>323966992
>to understand half a press.
There's nothing to understand. There IS NO such thing as a half a press.
He is only calling it that to make himself seem cooler in his fucking video. Calling it a half a press to make it sound impressive as if he managed to complete it with less effort or something. He didn't. He pushed the button. He wishes he didn't. But he did.
>>323966803
you're more autistic than the guy in the video
>>323967359
If you hit B, you do a kick jump. He used that to jump instead of A. It's a retarded gimp for no reason.
If he didn't press any buttons and it wasn't TAS, then I'd be impressed.
>>323967107
And people should only spend their time with fruitful pursuits, like posting on 4chan!
>>323956537
this is very impressive. it's sad how determination and passion is marked as "le autism" by retards these days.
>>323967380
>There IS NO such thing as a half a press.
Sure there is, he explained it perfectly clearly.
>>323967380
>as if he managed to complete it with less effort or something.
That is literally what 0.5 A press does as opposed to 1 A press. If he presses A inside the level (as opposed to having it held down as he enters), he gets the full height of an A jump. You can't really be this retarded.
>>323967537
Posting on 4chan is more fruitful than playing video games, yes.
>>323967589
He spouted bullshit and you ate it up
