Key Takeaways

When you think of Borderlands 2, most of you probably think of massive explosions, guns everywhere, slightly dated jokes, and a horrific movie that you’d rather everyone just forgot about. It’s the kind of game that thrives on chaos, throwing legions of enemies at you and having you spray bullets all over the place to take them down. It is not a game that many would expect could be beaten without getting hit a single time, but one streamer has managed just that.
Earlier this week, a no-hit streamer called HeyBlasty shared a video of their triumph via their personal Twitter account (thanks GamesRadar), in which they very quickly and efficiently take down The Warrior with very little effort. To be honest, if you’re completing Borderlands 2 without taking damage, then you probably know the game inside and out at this point.
Borderlands 2 Fan Spends 800 Hours Beating The Game Without Taking Damage
In the tweet, they claim that this victory came on their 112th run of the game, which is no small feat when you consider just how long Borderlands games can actually be. Not only that, but they reveal that it took them a whopping 826.8 hours over the course of 9 months to achieve their goal, which is a level of dedication to one game that is honestly astonishing. You can understand why HeyBlasty calls it their “proudest achievement”.
HeyBlasty now goes into the Hall of Fame for players who have beaten games without getting hit, alongside other legends of the industry such as Twitch streamer Seki, who managed to beat Elden Ring in less than 3 hours without taking damage. Other legends include speedrunner Samura1man, who claimed to be the first to beat Twilight Princess without taking damage, as well as a speedrunner called Hayete, who managed to beat Star Wars Jedi: Survivor on Grandmaster difficulty without taking damage, just a couple of weeks after the game launched.
Borderlands 2 picks up where the original game left off. Double-crossed by Handsome Jack, the Vault Hunters must seek revenge and liberate Pandora from Hyperion.
