Harry: murdered, dead, bleeding on the blankets.
Heather: executes a 360 quickturn cancel to leave him behind in record speed

Ok I really like this narration style, rather than being a strict serious script it feels like having a friend casually explain the game for you and it's a cozy and comfortable experience. Bringing up the konami announcement subject added more to that feeling. Comfy and really interesting ☺️

Ty for continuing the yearly tradition Ricky. These Silent Hill runs are always a treat to watch

Imagine a horror game story with a speedrunning protagonist. The monsters are popping out of every corner doing their level best to scare the protagonist, who is beelining right past them without sparing them a glance, let alone shooting at them, to the hidden hallway the protagonist should have no way of knowing exists, before stopping and intentionally dislocating their ankle to turn 270 degrees in 1/30 of a second to enter the hallway with no decrease in walk speed and no signs of pain despite their feet now facing two different directions. Later, the protagonist is trapped in a locked room with monsters slowly approaching and a creepy monologue in the background when suddenly there's a rapid clicking. The monsters look to the protagonist whose hand is a twitching, inhuman blur as they turn the knob to the locked door 60 times a second, waiting for the first frame after the monologue to open it. Then they notice both hands are on the shotgun the protagonist is holding. Halfway through it starts getting really freaky when the protagonist walks into a room, turning to face one particular corner and continuously walking into it while hopping in place for 37 seconds, then suddenly twisting into a pretzel *still* with no apparent signs of pain and passing into the wall while the monsters stare on, horrified.

Also: 42:27 If you're reading this Mr. ThaRixer, it's pronounced 'tair-oh' cards.

I would watch so many more random Speedruns of games I've never played if they were narrated like this. Knowing what is going on and all the techniques being used just kept this interesting and addictive throughout.

Now THIS is a FULL ANALYSI.. oh, the game's already over.

Your scripts are great - really enjoy the cadence of delivery. Clear concise and with the right amount of pauses to give some space. Keep it up!

I have to say, as someone who isn’t really in the speedrunning community, your channel is probably my favorite on YouTube right now. These videos are so well done and I’ve watched each like 6 times now. Hope you are doing well and I can’t wait to see future content! Also it’s criminal you don’t have more subscribers!

I'm in bed with a high fever listening to an explanation of a Speedrun of a game from a series I've never batted an eye at. And little by little I feel my self getting better. Your videos are truly incredible 🙏

Regular gameplay: A nightmarish psychological horror.
Speed Runner gameplay: A brisk jog through Detroit.

[Rooftone]

I really enjoy how the in-game timer inspires different strats to what the usual overlay/out-of-game timer would.

[AngelofGrace]

Oh shit, I discovered your channel really recently, and watched your other silent hill speedrun videos a couple of weeks ago, so it's very cool I managed to catch this one as it was uploaded!

[ahairylobster]

I can't thank you enough for the detail you go into on these vids, it really does help people who are completely new to the runs. Worked wonders on the sh2 vid and now this one is just as good if not better.

[manatee]

Honestly, I'm intrigued by silent hill f. The final shot of the trailer is really chilling and unexpected. I honestly thought they were just gonna play a jumpscare

[Pigeonscrapper]

6 months no video. My heart hurts. Please release something?!?!?!?

[VoermanIdiot]

I genuinely treasure these SH speedrun explanations as some of the highlights of youtube each year for the past few years now.

[tylerlindsey]

People will never appreciate how insanely hard just the movement is in this run. Big props

[kudosensei]

I was literally about to sleep but stupid me checked youtube before doing so, well while it's still Halloween...

[zenkichihitoyoshi]

And here it is, the promised video! Thanks Ricky, was really looking forward to this, your commentaries are endearing as always <3

[sirteabag]

perfect timing for this video with all the new silent hill hype.
