People who weren't there for the stream don't know how long we sat on the opening with Zote just humming because Skurry did their whole intro on mute

9:42 I find it both hilarious and entirely expected that following Zote's precepts down to the letter means leaving Zote himself for dead

The irony that Zote's precepts prevented his rescue

Illegitimate run. Precept 15: "One foe, one blow". There were multiple foes you used multiple blows on. This can be solved, however, with precept 33: "Show the enemy no respect". You can mod the game to give yourself infinite damage so you can follow precept 15.

I’m sweating over how skurry fights the dreamers since Precept 56, “do not dream,” is a thing

would love to see a 57% speedrun which is just like any% but you have to obey the precepts

This run is illegitimate! "Eat as much as you can" was definitely referring to getting all Rancid Eggs!

Skurry: just wants to obey all precepts Chat: "stop lingering"

If Zote has a "Dont trust your reflection" precept, that probably means they've had some close encounters with Nosk does it not?

Elderbug: *breathes* Skurry: WE MUST CONSULT THE PRECEPTS ON HOW BEST TO DEAL WITH THIS SITUATION

I like how whenever zote looks up it completely cuts one of his horn/antenna things off

Always wanted to do this, but precept 15, “One foe, one blow” always prevented me.

9:42 hmm I've reached the conclusion that seeing your doppelganger stare you in the eyes while being mauled to death by a wild animal and then run away would be horrifying I think

I was going to grill you about Precept 40 (obey no laws but your own), since you are following the precepts of Zote, only to see that you are playing as Zote. Good job avoiding my semantics today, Skurry

“One foe one blow... but only sometimes” -Zote the Skurry

Now this, is the TRUEST ending

16:41 the beat drops right after Skurry says “Eggshells are brittle!” and it makes such a dumb line seem kinda cool.

Zote: Precept 49: statues are meaningless Also Zote: *has a statue of himself in godhome* Zote: my goals are beyond the meaning

"Ah! My weak point! My entire body!" Same energy as, "You just gestured to all of me."

I don't know why but the recurring "always be rested!" is so delightful to me. just instant serotonin.

skurry facing a crisis and going "we must consult the precepts" has the same energy as that dude from The Office who goes "use that rush of fear and adrenaline to sharpen your decision-making!" lmao

A… decent attempt, cur. I am pleased that you did not get in the way of my prey and I this time. It would not have have ended well for you if you had

Skurry has finally followed the holy text to the letter, they will now recieve the devine reward of SS release date

I can already tell this is gonna be great, especially with chat saying how it was definitely the first try in the beginning!

I think freeing the grubs would also break precept 53. Keeping the grubs locked up is the desire of the collector and you do not steal the desires of others.

"Some kind of a salt lamp?" I died Skurry roleplays Zote to perfection

11:22 Skurry just opening the Leg Eater shop menu, seeing fragile greed, then whispering "god damn it" just killed me

Finally, a run following the real guide.

i just love how you can see zote even in just that picture when you get abilities. hilarious details.

I like how the precepts range from actual good advice to really obvious to absolute dogshoot

You also followed a 3rd Precept when killing Myla “Show your enemy no respect!” : D

"Precept Fifteen: 'One Foe, One Blow'. You should only use a single blow to defeat an enemy. Any more is a waste. Also, by counting your blows as you fight, you'll know how many foes you've defeated." You failed after the first swing, for shame.

The chat spamming ellipses while Skurry was swimming killed me lmaoo

skurry's content is the best, their voice is so calming

The fact that skurry was able to name most of the precepts is impressive

I love the 57 precepts of Zote! I literally made my brother read them out loud once.

Zote's weakpoint being his entire body is so true.

I just want to say, Zote was actually right about one thing: Never trust your reflection. *Guys, Zote just predicted Nosk*

If Skurry/Zote meet Zote and fight, does space and time explode since you can't be stronger than yourself and they share the same desires?

I've just realized that Zote's precepts are like the hollow knight equivalent of the sigma male rules.

Run invalid, "Precept Fifteen: 'One Foe, One Blow'. You should only use a single blow to defeat an enemy. Any more is a waste. Also, by counting your blows as you fight, you'll know how many foes you've defeated."

precepts not in this video: Precept Thirty-Four: 'Don't Eat Immediately Before Sleeping'. This can cause restlessness and indigestion. It's just common sense. Precept Thirteen: 'Never Be Afraid'. Fear can only hold you back. Facing your fears can be a tremendous effort. Therefore, you should just not be afraid in the first place.

Ok so who else held their breath during the blue lake segment?

One Foe, One Blow. Therefore if it takes multiple blows to defeat an opponent, that opponent is actually just several smaller opponents.

the hidden lore from a vod watcher: skurry didn't realize they were muted the first few minutes XD thank you for the video skurry!

You can already tell it’s gonna be a banger

“always be rested” says zote the guy who’s mask looks tired

I can’t believe the precepts are functional in gameplay. I know what I’m doing next play through

This would honestly probably be harder if you did the opposite of each precept No resting Must keep cloak wet Up is down, down is up To name a few

I absolutely love how they left Zote and Bretta to die in the precept% speedrun

petition to rename the "57 precepts" to the "Sigma Grindset"

This is how the game was meant to be played

myla:just mining skurry:*attacks first* myla:*attacks back* skurry: "self defence!"

Next time I walk past a bench irl I’m gonna say “always say rested” and rush to sit down

Precept 42 is genuinely good advice for this game. Save for what you need then spend, hoarding just leads to disappointment when you lose it.

Okay, now make Precepts% a legitimate speedrun category

I love that they photoshopped the zote eyes every time they learn an ability, it's so funny and also shows how much care is put to the videos and the editing!

I like how the chapters are divided by precept, well done. Also "this is a strat... Known as... The zoomies!" Was v unexpected and adorable. V good

What I’ve realised watching this is that most of Zote’s precepts are actually not half bad advice

Now make a run: "obey no precepts" ;) This should be challenging and invoking creativity :)

12:56 “I must expel the liquids” That is my favourite line 18:07 Zote cannot withstand the dreams

The best part of this is how twitchy the Zote skin is. It really fits perfectly.

It’s surprising how many of these precepts are genuine advice that you could honestly follow. I’m hella impressed.

Skurry's delivery of this entire stream was amazing - oh and the video editing is better than ever, great work skurry's editor

This is the best. One question. How many zotes did you kill in The eternal ordeal.

he followed precept 15. he never attacked the enemies, he just identified their weak points and hit it on the last attack

27:34 POV: You're a dream stan

3:15 “obey no law but your own” Wait thats a loophole! If you dont follow this rule you are doing the rule but then you arent because you are obeying?

"for glory!" *jumps down a well*

precept 3: always be rested... now we know why he keeps getting caught... he always has to rest... even if the only place to rest is in jaws or a spider web he never needed our help, he was just resting

18:27 illegitimate run. You didn't stay rested 19:24 illegitimate run. You didn't dry your cloack

the ‘god damit’ after realising they didn’t have enough money for strengh was gold

Exactly the type of content i needed to see today

This was great and hilarious!! You did a GREAT job of somehow fitting all the precepts in!!

Consult the precept You remind me of a space marine who always must read the codex astartes

up is up and down is down. that means you gotta use arrow keys only, no wasd no spacebar.

Precept 58: Never forget that skurry uses they/them

I love how when you said "someone that you might know" zote in the backround theme coughs a bit as in saying "its me!" XD

no one: literally no one: no one in the entire universe: skurry: STAY RESTED

Fun fact: They had to redo the intro because they were muted at the start

You know, when you think about preset 56 being "do not dream" does not really count since its not really the knig- i mean zote's dream

"I must expel the liquids!" Violently throws up a ball of liquid into the horizon

no one: skurry: STAY RESTED.

6:09 this message was approved by God gamer fireborn

I get joy out of seeing Zote’s head on the ground- _he’s not a favorite-_

YEAHHHH I was waiting for this after watching the vod!! Great video!!😌

I discovered this channel just 2 days ago and i already love it, you're doing a great job!

11:27 That silent, defeated “goddamnit” absolutely got me.

all this video taught me is that zote's precepts are actually useful

You really do brighten my day, this was hilarious.

6:14 The sound that the grub made when they left it was so sad...

Great video! I am really enjoying it, thank you =)

16:25 lovely chat colours Precept 45, eh, Zote?

This is top-notch content right here. It has won my heart towards your channel and my subscription, Skurry. Keep up the great work!

"Oh no, mothers!" -Zote the Mighty, knight of great renown

So proud of you for helping Soul Master's egg crack! You're such a good friend!

Precept Fifteen: 'One Foe,One Blow' You should only use a single blow to defeat an enemy. Any more is a waste. Also by counting the blows as you Fight, you'll know how many foes you've defeated. You first loose this challenge at 5:09 when wasting your time and striking the Aspid twice. You are a shame to all of Zote kind.

This was the most fun i had watching anything in a long time. Good job Skurry, this was awesome

this must've taken so much prep, was really fun to watch :D
