DUSK - Speedrun in 16:56 (World Record)
55Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the near perfect DUSK speedrun. I used all kinds of optimisations I knew of, I went for some of the riskiest movement lines there are, like on E2M6, and of course we got the best luck on the final level with Jacob. All those things combined allowed me to break, probably the last, minute barrier in this game, I highly doubt that there's a way to hit 15:xx. So, with all that said, I think this is pretty much the end of this category, and what I mean is that all runs that will come after that will use pretty much the same strats and the same movement lines etc. And perhaps somebody beats this run at some point (I'm not saying its unbeatable, just saying that it uses all the best strats and the best movement lines that community has come up with throught all those years), but it will still use all the same things that have been shown here, unless there's a new movement tech discovered or some kind of new major trick found in the game that is. So, to wrap this text up, I think, first of all, I should apologise for a ton of waffling in this run, so I would recommend you using the timestamps below if you can't stand all the blabbering that's happening in here. And, of course, as always, I hope you will enjoy this run! Thanks so much for reading all this and watching this beast of a run! GG!
