Yeah, the game is broken, the game is very broken. We’d already known that bosses will deload and fall if you can get far enough away because we’d done that with cheat engine or the Pegasus glitch where you can make your horse fly. But he got a zip that was just crazy far, so he went back to see how that happened, and found he could just get a ton more distance if he did this. I believe it was Seeker, who was just playing around with macros and different things, or he might have just been doing it by hand, I’m not sure.
Mega zips were found just by someone playing around. But the bosses stay loaded in, so they just fall to their death. This gets us far enough away from the Capital of Ash, the final area of the game, that it de-loads the area. We don’t know what, but that’s what happens.įor a mega zip, you do that, but you also perform a second sort-of-frame-perfect but not quite input of walking forward, and then the distance just goes 10 times as far. First, to explain what a zip is: You block and then, 2.1 seconds later, you walk forward for a specific number of frames, and the game just kind of teleports you forward with super high speed for some reason. So mega zips were discovered and now you’ve hit a sub-13. That was 18:25, that was back before we found these mega zips, so that was, I don’t know, a week ago, roughly. By the time you’re reading this, that record will most likely be considered slow, because, as Mitchriz told me, Elden Ring‘s speedrunning community simply won’t stop improving.īefore you did this run, you had another that was fantastic that you couldn’t count because a minute of it wasn’t recorded.
Distortion2 would then crush that time by beating the game in 8:56. By the time of writing, just three days after our interview, that record had been left in the dust thanks to a new strategy that let Mitchriz beat the game in 9:40.
