  • We've seen Ratchet & Clank 3 beaten with only the Wrench before, but what about a weapon that is techically weaker? Today, we find out how hard it would be to beat the game using only the Plasma Whip!
    DETAILED RULES:
    - No weapon listed under the "Weapons" menu may be used at any point, other than the Plasma Whip.
    - If an item or gadget listed under the "Items" or "Gadgets" menus is capable of dealing damage, use of that item or gadget to deal damage is prohibited (specifically in this case, the Refractor gadget).
    - All upgraded forms of the Plasma Whip (specifically V2, V3, V4 and V5, a.k.a. the Quantum Whip) are allowed.
    - The Omniwrench may not be used at any point, except to turn bolt cranks.
    - Anything other than the Plasma Whip capable of dealing damage is considered illegal unless deemed necessary to progress (turrets, vehicles, etc.).

    It took me a few playthroughs to get into it, but discovering the V5 Quantum Whip was a match made in heaven for me. That wave it sends out that can stun twice? Beautiful. One of my favorite UYA-exclusive weapons in the game.

    This actually shows a huge problem the Ratchet series developed, weapons you start with quickly become useless, where as in Ratchet 1 most weapons can be used to great effect

    • @roberthouse4817
      @roberthouse4817 Před 2 lety

      I would have to disagree, mainly because of my playstyle, I usually use the weapons that match the specific criteria, like if there are ranged enemies I'll usually use the beginning Blaster, but if there are a lot of them up close I'll use the bomb glove or something to that degree, or the whip :)

  • @Alex-ex8ob
    @Alex-ex8ob Před 2 lety +1

    Nice to see you trying to do a whip jump at 15:11. I assume you were mashing circle a bunch and wasn't sure when to stop. In speedruns, we use the whip jump to go from the elevator area straight to the ship, which is an even bigger corner cut than you tried showing off. The reason things were weird afterwards is because the game saves your position upon triggering the cutscene as your spawn point, so it's mainly just the way the game was programmed. Good video man.

    • @matticusomega
      @matticusomega  Před 2 lety

      Yeah, I was a little late on performing the long jump out of the initial swing. I really wanted to skip from the ship to the elevator platform, but given that PAL Charge Boots don't carry as much momentum, I couldn't make it work. Maybe if I could chain a Hyper Strike onto the end, but disallowing the Wrench in the way I did made that a non option

    If I had to guess, the reason they had two flags for the gauntlet is because they were likely aware of the neutral long jump would allow players to easily skip the chopper boss, so they had a flag for getting the Courtney Gears cut scene, and a flag for the boss being dead.

  • @Kyronea
    @Kyronea Před 5 měsíci

    I'm sure by now you've seen The Golden Bolt's retrospectives on the R&C series, but just in case, the reason Daxx is coded as is was due to a limited stretch of time for making that entire level, which is why parts of it is lifted wholesale from a level in Going Commando, and other parts are janky as all get out programming wise. Like the entire game, the developers, to use their words, were crunching pretty hard to get this game done as quickly as they did, so stuff like this snuck in.
    It's also one of those things where the intended developer path for 99% of players is for them to kill the boss, then be able to proceed to the cutscene that finishes the mission, and because of that, there's no need to worry about people bypassing the boss. Doing so requires abusing a number of glitches that most players wouldn't ever encounter, and playtesters wouldn't have had time or the wherewithal to manage.
    Also, if you'd like an interesting challenge, what about trying to do Tools of Destruction with only devices?

    I'm going to be honest, Ratchet & Clank Up Your Arsenal is my absolute favorite Ratchet & Clank game, and I had absolutely no idea that the plasma whip had lower damage than other weapons, I just use what I feel is needed at the time, ranged weapon for ranged enemies, so on and so forth, the plasma whip has always been my favorite weapon just because it's a good medium and close-range weapon with high damage and strong AOE and ammo is easily obtained

    You know you could have used ratchet himself to destroy boxes at the start when you needed money. Just equip thruster pack as a replacement for heli-pack and charge into the boxes, it destroys them and you dont use wrench so it wont invalidate the run.
