The limitations on what you can't use on NG ILs would be...later boss weapons, wigs, and ripper before Monsoon? Anything else you could just farm VR missions, or even just the previous mission repeatedly to buy. This seems like an annoying novelty at best.
Making an src account months late to be mad about an issue you only care about because a youtuber told you to is pretty crazy too imo.
What you're essentially asking for is a category where the determining factors are whether Mistral's barrel explodes, whether Mistral skips the second phase slide, whether Monsoon does a melee attack at the start, how lucky you get with prethrowing grenades on Monsoon, whether your save file doesn't have HP upgrades, and how good you are at Armstrong.
All the boss strategies besides Armstrong are very simple and mostly animation-locked in terms of speed with just an hour or so of practice.
The run described in the video that you have linked has never been submitted, or approved, for this leaderboard outside of the segmented category.
Hi, sorry for the delayed response, I wanted to wait to see if there were still any objections. The category has been added. I'd add your run to the leaderboards but it technically doesn't count as new game (it does not receive a tutorial prompt after the first fight in R01, for example. A new file that at least hasn't gotten that far is required.) Good luck on your runs!
Also, the timer starts at .91 due to the autostart, which presumably doesn't work on the modded version. You can undo this by turning off the autosplitter under edit splits and "Start Timer at" back to 0.
You are performing the inputs too early. You'll notice that in your example, Raiden stalls midair after pressing ripper mode for nearly a third of a second. Wait until the first swing is completely over, and you should see (slow but) fluid movement from when you perform the input.
Refusing to use someone's preferred pronouns when directed to do so, and instead dropping a paragraph about how they're not performing gender correctly until they explicitly confirm to you that they are trans, is transphobia.
Can't believe I was made to log in to this hellsite again but: Yes. Transphobes get the boot. Obviously.
It's as minor as any timesave can really be when you do it through the whole game. Don't worry about it and do whatever you want.
No, it's not against the rules.If anything it's on the lower end of OP compared to Pincer and Fox Blade. Beatrix even theorized that the run might be faster without it.
I'm not sure how it keeps happening but I gave up and made it infinite.
Just gonna hit everyone up with the casual reminder that having a framecap rule for the sake of fairness is entirely reasonable and justified.
tfw you will never be as originally hilarious as my boy Gyoo
