Hideous Destructor | Diabolus Ex | No Failure Run
159Inspired by ICARUSLIV3S when he played Hideous Destructor and Diabolus Ex together, resulting in a not so amusing sight, followed by vitriol in both stream and chat. Unpleasant stuff, basically.
Decided to try out running these two together without the ceasing of the player's heartbeats in the progress. Did it with some success. Hideous difficulty & Rifleman start class.
I'm silent in this video. Sorry if anyone's expecting commentary.
Initial practice run was me trying to 100% the level, failed constantly thanks to the cyberspace snipers + cyberdemon (though still managed to get to the exit). Once I figured out that I could shoot through the glass, I think it only took 2-3 full retries (all failed on the roof assault) before I finally managed this particular run.
I originally played this using the -record command, which means that this thing playing right now is a demo recording of my past success, you'll notice that the inventory on the bottom right doesn't change thanks to the playback, though I'm sure you can figure out what I ended up using in the playthrough.
Had to evade some areas thanks to their high threat levels (the first cyberspace area also sometimes crashes in HD, and saving + loading usually screws up the demo recording), so, technically not a 100% run, sorry about that.
