Smaller channels, especially those that have been around a long time, have more dedicated fanbases. It's pretty much all fans, so we also dont want our "star" to be shilling a sham that was exposed 6 years ago. Now that people have forgotten about their Xwitter "cancelation", CZcamsrs are just selling out. We dont want that for our favourite creators
Please don't shill BetterHelp. They're awful and their reputation is actually worse recently.
THAT SEGMENT IS 1 MINUTE THAT'S LESS THAN 3% OF THE VIDEO LIKE STFU
You have to understand a lot of people are still under contract with them, there are better ways to word this
Alright, I'm behind the times; what did they do bad? Because I used them for a little while a few years ago and it was easily one of the best therapy experiences I've had. (Though, that was due to a very good therapist, not anything particular to the company itself.)
@@AlexReynard the couple peopleI know IRL that used it found great therapists there too.

Sadly he knew
He knew and is trying to downplay it LMAO
I just learned about it from this comment section.
@@mistermista2927_hopefully_ that is just the terms of the sponsor requiring him to, or at least not giving him money if he doesn't
Don't know who here will see this, but want to say I ALLEGIDLY had a conversation with Kosmic and he ALLEGIDLY told me his thoughts on the BetterHelp sponsorship. He took the sponsorship a couple months back and the research he did on the company said they only hire licensed therapists now and paid people millions of dollars in refunds to people who were unsatisfied with their services in the past, so he thought they changed for the better. He also had someone in his personal life say they used BetterHelp and that it helped them a lot. With this information, he felt comfortable accepting the sponsor. He also was happy to not just promote mental health, but to also get paid promoting something he cares a lot about. He also tried his best to promote it in the video as just an option; not a substitute for in-person therapy. After the video's release, he saw the negative attention the sponsor got. He tried to explain where he was coming from in the comments, but admits he didn't do a good job, regrets the way he talked about things in the comments, and those comments have since been deleted. He wishes he could talk openly about all this, but unfortunately he and his family can't afford to lose out on the sponsor money, so he has to stay quiet to avoid any complications. Sometime in the future, you may see a proper response to this situation from him. This debacle very much took a toll on him, because he does truly care about his audience, and is upset that they are hurt by his sponsorship in this video. I can confirm you will never see another BetterHelp sponsor on this channel. If you have any questions, feel free to reply to this comment. Have a good one.
Thank you for explaining. I really hope this is true
Thank goodness
Thanks GTAce. Good luck with your runs!
Thank you. I'm hoping this turns out true and we can all move on.
Personally, I'm of the mind that forgiveness for a genuine mistake is just one genuine apology away, no matter how long it takes.
Yeah, I personally reached out to him as well on Twitter and got a response like this. He seemed very down to earth and admitted to making a mistake and wishing he could go back.

The FTC has a pretty well encompassing article on how Better Help broke their privacy promises and expectations. It also includes a link to the original complaint form (it's a whole bunch of legal jargon so I'd just read the article)

@@vyor8837 It's HIPAA, but why does that matter?
@@jordanbtucker because the only thing they sold were... results from surveys they offered.

@@vyor8837surveys they promised the answers to would be kept private and only used for helping determine therapists to match you with? Yep, that makes it A-OK!
Atleast this sponsorship had the unintended effect of letting the less informed of us know to avoid better help at all cost
Yeah, I did not know they did that, thanks for informing me ig.
Dunno about everyone else, but I knew as soon as I saw an ad for therapy lol... what honest person would be advertising therapy services in a CZcams video aimed at gamers?
The fact a nearly 40+ year game still is not beaten in the fastest way possible is amazing
A comment not about betterhelp?!
almost no games are! Kosmic has another vid where he talks about the conditions that make it possible for a game's RTA WR to match the TAS and how SMB1 sort just BARELY meets those conditions.

@@Lou-yf1jo the speedruners...?

Okay, listen. I respect getting upset at betterhelp. I don't respect taking your hate for betterhelp out on content creators. Just because he took the sponsor doesn't mean he actually supports them. There is a whole other 98% of the video! Kosmic is one of the most respectable people I know, and putting shade on him for his sponsor when it is 1 minute in a 36 long minute video is just silly. You would be better off going somewhere else to talk about this issue.
@@wesleyandrews7212 "just because he took the sponsor doesn't mean he actually supports them." that doesn't make it better at all

Oh no, a youtuber I like taking a sponsorship to keep making videos I enjoy for free. I'm mad that I had to skip through 60 seconds of the video to enjoy the rest of the 35 minutes.
@@MrKylederp tell me you know nothing about betterhelp without telling me you know nothing about betterhelp
Really good video, but like a lot of people, I'm very disappointed in the BetterHelp sponsorship, especially as someone who cares a lot about mental health. However, knowing Kosmic personally, I'd like to believe it wasn't promoted maliciously, and more came from a place of either being misinformed or not knowing their history. The criticism is obviously valid, but the ridicule seems a bit intense. I hope the takeaway from this is to just not promote this company again in the future.
I'm very disappointed in him defending it in the comments. I understand the contract is probably requiring it but I can't watch this content knowing he is (now) knowingly promoting a company that preys on the mentally ill. Almost everything about betterhelp online is extremely negative besides content sponsored by the company, which tells me that he either didn't do his research or did not care. I understand he probably needs the money, but I feel that at least a large chunk of the response is justified. I should be clear that I am normally extremely ok with sponsorship, people need money to make the content and I respect that
@@corgihero259 Unfortunately at this point it's just a lose-lose situation. Playing devil's advocate and assuming a lack of knowledge up until now, you either upset a chunk of your community or lose out on a huge chunk of income (and potentially face legal issues?). It sucks that overall one of those things is far worse than the other, which is why there may not be a proper response. It's also natural to speak out against defamation of character. I'm not gonna pretend I know truthfully what he thinks about all this, but it is a shitty situation for everyone involved and the best plan forward is to just not have this happen again.
@@GTAce99 agreed. I've seen some people remove this sponsor from videos after the entire thing with them, but kosmic probably doesn't have the resources to do something large and legally complex. I do hope he doesn't take any sponsors like this one in the future

15:15 honestly, I think people who explain the glitch levels this way are missing the point.
I believe most people think that when a level is stored in a game, there's something like a big picture, like the level maps you see in strategy guides. People think the game takes this map picture and loads it into memory.
For these old NES that's simply not the case - there's not enough memory to actually store level data like that! So what did they do? *They made a level generation program*
Level data is simply instructions to the level generator to tell it what it needs to create next (ie create a bunch of blocks with goombas when this point is reached by the player.) Glitched levels are simply bad instructions to the level generator program.
This is completely correct, but it's a good "first approximation" if you're not going into a full explanation like RGME did.
@@MrCheeze completely correct or completely incorrect? How off base am I here?
@@universalpersonI'm saying you have described things accurately, BUT ALSO, that it's fine to use the inaccurate version for people who really aren't familiar with this at all.
A generator program or a picture is the same thing in the end, just data that is compressed or not compressed (lookup Kolmogorov complexity for instance); it doesn't really matter how exactly it's laid out in memory besides knowing that a random mess is getting interpreted as level data
@@SpeedcoreDancecoreIt's really not the same thing. It limits the set of possible layouts that can be stored. That's why even the fully glitched levels look kind of like levels and not like a completely random assortment of tiles and sprites like level zero in Pac-Man.
was sent this video specifically for the Famicom Disk System explanation and yeah it's a solid simple explanation that it's an add-on for a console and not a console of its own (albeit I'd put an asterisk on the FDS working on NES cause pin adapters and expansion audio) and the tone of your voice explaining the differences is pretty telling just how many times you've had to give this talk in the past
Amazing explanation of the original minus world clip
Fun fact. Rather than nothing, Nintendo considers that blank number before the dash a "Space". That's why their convention that they ran in Japan for a long time was called... wait for it... SpaceWorld. It was a reference to the glitch.

I wonder why it doesn’t give a memory index out of bounds exception and crash the game. Perhaps the developers never implemented code to prevent this. Often times a glitch isn’t anything wrong with the code at all but simply an outcome not desired by the developer, hence it is prevented from happening.

I know that betterhelp isn’t a good sponsor and that defending & supporting it is dangerous, which is why i think kosmic should be criticized for promoting it. But a lot of the ppl in this comment section are acting like kosmic is a terrible person in general for this. Yes, he is in the wrong. But you need to understand that content creators cant be perfect role models all the time; they can be wrong, just like everyone else. I’ve watched kosmic for a few years and he just seems like a good person overall, never getting into any controversies or anything. I don’t think he is doing this out of pure malice against his fans, nor is he just blindsided by money. He is simply in the wrong about betterhelp. Again, i think he should be criticized for defending it, but he shouldn’t just be bashed on like this. And, if you don’t wanna support betterhelp, that’s fine, just don’t support this video. But he doesn’t deserve to be completely unsupported overall.
HE IS THE DEVIL
I initially posted a reply but deleted it to write something else.
While I don't believe Kosmic is purely malicious for doing this, I think it's justified the reaction it's gotten and that unsubscribing from him is also an understandable reaction. BetterHelp is not a trustworthy company, they have clearly shown they will lie for profit until the law gets involved, and it's entirely possible they are just doing something else malicious or even continuing to harvest user data against their claims but more secretively.
Kosmic is willingly advertising a dangerous product and refusing to take action after learning about this. I understand this was not done out of malice, but it's absolutely valid to protest.
Sorry I forgot about content creator's feelings, I was distracted by people getting life threateningly worse help.
Also he's genuinely defending them in other comments.
@@pafnutiytheartist i’m not trying to defend his opinions, also i did talk about him defending himself in my comment
The "you did a thing you weren't aware was bad, so now you're bad" mentality isn't good.

21:17 Princess Peach just hanging out like it’s whatever lol.
edit: the fact that you're going as far as defending them in the replies has led me to unsubscribe. less than a year ago, the ftc took action against betterhelp to make them stop sharing sensitive user data -- for a therapy platform, that's absolutely unacceptable to do, and they should not be trusted because of that. i don't want to doubt you're a good person, and money being a concern is very valid as well, but in the future, looking into your sponsors more may be a good thing. in the end, though, this all has left a bad taste in my mouth, and if you look at the comments, others feel the same way.
original message: was excited to see this, but i guess i'm not going to watch it because of the betterhelp sponsor... hopefully you're just locked into a contract or something, but there's a lot of stuff going around about their business practices being shady. (as well as at least one case of a gay man allegedly getting a therapist telling him to be straight)
there's a page by the us federal trade commission about all this if you'd be willing to look.
I would assume BetterHelp would revoke the sponsor if he started going against them in the comments. He probably has to if he wants to keep the sponsor.
@@BigShitterDeluxehe could have at least kept silent, then, or alluded to his hands being tied by being under contract instead? i don't really understand the benefit of actively defending them in the way he has personally -- there's room for nuanced takes at times but with a company fined for millions i would say he's grasping at straws a little here.
@@BigShitterDeluxe he should have demonstrated basic morals and not taken the sponsor in the first place. I don't think "noooo if I say bad things then I won't get the scam money!!!" is a very good excuse at this point
@luciasarchives
I looked it up - the FTC thing you're talking about was published 2023, but is regarding practices from 2020 and before (about making money off of emails for advertising purposes, if I understand correctly). But the FTC gave instructions on how to do better, and there's no indication that BetterHelp hasn't followed through.
The other issue I've heard of are the bad reviews about BetterHelp therapists, but I heard BetterHelp has improved since to minimize those. In any case, there are also good reviews & stories, too. Kosmic in a comment elsewhere said that he'd heard of good stories. Should we ignore all the people that have been helped because of a few bad therapists?
I looked up hopefully more recent reviews and found an article from healthline which found generally positive reviews.
Are you going to cry about it?
Speedrunning really is an artform.
This was one of my favorite videos of yours. Awesome job, man. Niftski is unreal.
As soon as you showed the NES my computer bluescreened...love when it does that.
NOOOO BETTERHELP GOT HIM
april fools
He's always shilled this
Just enjoy the video
Even if BetterHelp has supposedly changed, (which I am very skeptical of considering the only thing I can tell that BetterHelp has proven is that they're more than willing to engage in immoral practices and lie if it means they can make an extra profit) i'd still argue against letting them sponsor your video. All that's showing other companies with ill intentions is that you can keep your company afloat and get CZcams sponsors if you apologize and seem sincere enough, which could lead to unfortunate consequences in which companies called out for similar situations get some PR to write an essay about how sorry they are, and then just go back to harvesting data like nothing ever happened, maybe a little more secretive this time.
Couldn't agree more, well said
This is such a a good take
Google "BetterHelp's Response to the Recent FTC Settlement" and read their response where they claim they did nothing wrong and are being singled out.
I can guarantee they have not changed. There are still reports of new users suddenly finding their info being used for marketing towards them... As in users that joined in 2024.
It's interesting to think this category is short enough that a truly perfect run, tying the TAS, doesn't feel out of reach.
(By the way, there are even faster game completions possible if you allow the more dubious technique of swapping to another cartridge and then back.

@@JustJoshIsUnavailable Because it's harmful to others? If I say "I'll give you $50 bucks if you go steal that guys wallet and give it to me" would you also say "ehhh it's not a big deal, he really needed the $50" - because that's what this sponsorship is. It's taking money to willfully manipulate and scam other people out of their money. So naturally, when a content creator agrees to that, people lose respect for them and get upset.
And if anyone is doubtful or thinks "it's not that bad" or "how could anyone have known" etc - just google BetterHelp + FTC. They've already been in legal troubles and media scandals over their practices. What they are doing IS illegal and they HAVE been punished or reprimanded - it's just they have enough money to keep going and trying to sweep it under the rug (which Kosmic - and any content creator who accepts their offer - is directly helping them to do).
This might be your best breakdown video yet! Thanks for it also your awesome!
This is such a well put together video Kosmic! Great job!

9:08 oh my god, the crowns in super mario 3d world when you get to max lifes is a reference to super mario bros!!!
Yep!
Brilliant job with this video! Very inspiring!
Thanks to the speedrunners and their passion... and borderline crazyness at times. :)
The Minus World is a very interesting idea. It's one of the first recorded gaming glitches, and more things are still being found today. It's amazing how a 35+ year old game can be pushed to such an inhuman degree to do amazing runs.
Great video. Thank you, thank you, thank you also for the simple act of pronouncing Super Mario Bros. correctly.
Minor correction: The 36th character in the tileset would actually represent 35, as the first character is 0 and there is no "0th world".
Great video! Haven't yet been able to get the no-brick-break minus world clip. But your dive into wall clips turned on a light bulb and I'm gonna go for it with new perspective.
5:09 i think the reason the game disables collision at the top of the screen is to stop Mario from banging his head on the ground tiles at the bottom of the screen (as their collision likely wraps around to the top of the screen). Just a theory though.
Good theory, but it doesn’t seem to be the case. I tested removing the check and he doesn’t bonk his head at the top
However he does hit the bottom of the ground tiles if you remove the checks for being offscreen and being at the bottom
This guy isn't complaining about the better help sponsorship, get him!
@@Tech35_bro chill
My guy, betterhell!?
That was a typo, but I'm keeping it
Nah it's appropriate
“Shoutout to Dan Salvato for this chart” Dan Salvato? The Dan Salvato of DDLC fame? Omg it is wow
Yep. He was actually a Super Smash PM (modder? creator?) before DDLC, and there’s at least two easter eggs to this fact in DDLC. (I think I may have heard that they were patched out for some reason, but you can find them in older compilations or on wikis.)
such a good video, as always. ive never seen this speedrun category at all and the way you built up the story was fantastic!
For confused fans wondering why this video is getting hate:
It's the sponsor, BetterHelp. Do not use their service. They have been known to record what you say to therapists and sell it to advertisers, along with a whole lot of shady garbage.
I frankly have no idea why Kosmic would accept a sponsorship from these people, but I hope it gets clarified soon. It may be a lack of due diligence. Don't assume too quickly
Stop being weak and deal with life on your own

more like wetter help, bc you’re stuck in an endless water level
Bruh everyone talking about better help like it's the devil and everyone know about it. Whatever they did. I belive you.
But please. I didn't knew about thoses issues and I'm cronicaly online. He made a sponsorship, and honestly considering his content it's probable he did a research on what he was selling. Again considering his content if he closed the deal it's probably because he didn't found anything against them.
So pls don't act like it's so far spread around that everyone know about it. You are just hurting people.
Hey love the video! The content is awesome and I learned a lot.
0:55 Just forget the words and sing along~
not betterhelp bro....
I'd love a breakdown on why the keyboard is considered legal. Not because I think it shouldn't be; I'm just curious.
Keyboards are legal because the rules dictate that you are only allowed to perform inputs that are possible on an NES controller. With that rule in place, it's essentially just a custom controller with buttons rearranged in different physical locations.
@@jordanbtuckerWhat would be defined as/an example of a keyboard-only input?
@@GreatFox42 Being able to press both left and right on the D-pad. It has advantages in certain circumstances, but it's not possible on an NES controller (unless it's broken).
@@jordanbtuckerThank you for the explanation.
so why is keyboard legal? you just told us that you can do illegal controls on keyboard (left+right, up+down) , but have not explained why keyboard is legal (wich is still strange since it can do illegal moves)
no wonder it's so hard to make a satisfying platformer, you have to cram so much in even in one this simple, just to keep it smooth and pleasant. and we never even noticed, we just noticed when worse games didn't manage it.
I remember first being fascinated about the minus world back when I first saw the original JWittz video back 10 years ago! Still one of my favorite video game glitches of all time! Great video!
Better help is a scam.
Betterhelp is not a good company. Please don’t accept their sponsor ship
How do NES speedrunners practise? Is there such thing as a physical save state adapter cart?
Thanks for the timestamps in the list of soundtracks used in the video.
Dude I dig how you've been branching out into more historical/explainer vids. They're really great, good job man
fun fact super mario bros. can be completed under 65 million hours
no really? i thought the max was 1234567898765432345678 million hours
Kosmic actually did a “slowrun” of the game before. A lot more interesting and technical than you would think.
Thanks for recommending Displaced Gamer's video! Liked it quite a bit.
Nice video, also nice to give the list of musics you used!
Betterhelp literally scammed a friend of mine irl, really devastated to see the sponsership, but I get times are tough.
That's... all sponsors though?
Displate products don't hang on walls, you have to buy extra magnets. Raid Shadow Legends is a pay-to-win service. BlueChew doesn't actually help you get hard. NordVPN provides no extra security whatsoever, it's just 200 bucks for an illusion.
Putting aside the sponsorship, this is a pretty fun, informative video. I do enjoy it when Kosmic shows more personality and gets his style of humor in, too. More videos like this is always welcome
finally, someone who is sane in this comment section
22:42 "Ohhh right on the lips"
My goodness Kosmic 😂😂
"The developers DID make them." (Blaster Master music starts). Epic.
A warning that Better Help has been known to sell confidential user data without consent, and overworks/underpays the therapists it hires.
They're also not sorry about it. Google "BetterHelp's Response to the Recent FTC Settlement" and read their response where they claim they did nothing wrong and are being singled out.
