Here's that link that I said would be in the description but I put it here instead: https://youtu.be/YYNqBxPo1Uw

Seems like a classic Steven Universe episode. Decides he wants to be an edgy loner kind of hero, and it starts out funny, but it causes him a lot of grief, so he learns the valuable lesson that it’s okay to get help from the people you care about.

This time, friendship is weakness, friendship is overrated

I think we all learned a valuable lesson from this video....
"Steven universe: save the light is a perfectly programmed game with no flaws"

Bruh if Steven just had his ACTUAL CANON POWERS like floating and bubble boxing gloves, pretty much all of these rulebreaks would just vanish

Having to focus on making sure everyone else in your party is at full health while refusing to actually have them contribute to the battle, ironically enough, sounds EXACTLY like something that would happen a su or su:f episode.

If you heal the prism knight when hesonite is hitting them , they give hesonite a crazy big defense debuff
Which maybe could make your hell a bit more tolerable

I like to think that Steven getting up so close against Squaridot is because he's actually a big fan of some Dead Man's Volley, and trying to be anti-Power of Friendship has in turn made him overconfident in his capabilities with it

I misread the thumbnail and thought it said 'i dont need Mayonnaise' which intrigued me enough to click on the video lol

I still think Steven would try a challenge like this. Not because he doesn't value friendship, but rather the opposite. He wants to know about his friends because he cares about them- so he would do like, a solo run of a single dungeon with every character, to find out where they struggle and where they excel, so he can put them in a party with people where they truly shine.

Maybe the real light was the friends we ignored along the way

You can shave a rulebreak off with the light dew by doing a set of movements to hop up the rock on the left back of that cliff where the chest is and using it to hop over to the cliff. Speedrunners use that trick to shave time off the run! (Figured it was worth bringing up since abusing level geometry to try a skip of another character was brought up other places but not there.)

39:59 Looking at Peridot and Garnet's levels basically had me yelling "IT'S OVER 9000!"

There should've been a reference to "It Has To Be This Way" during the final battle with Hessonite.

I remember when I challenged myself to beat the game with only Connie to prove how good she is, I sorta regret that a little

Fun fact. In some areas if you bounce the enemies off the platform with steven they don't die but instead follow a path to try and get back up the platform that everything ells is but this can take really long as they have to do a whole platforming section or they just get stuck

Wonder if this challenge would be more viable with Unleash The Light?
iirc Steven has more attacks in that game and there's less things requiring the use of other characters

Steven: Gets shot by 24 snowballs and gets knocked down
Also Steven: Oh hey! A huge laser! Cool! Time to totally not care at all!

Twilight sparkle: friendship is-
Steven: weakness

2:09  its like he was in some kind of...snow grave
