United StatesThat’s very good! Not much time lost.
That top Magicka pattern can be done, but that’s a really unfortunate one. Could get a good time with it, but it would have to be seconds slower than the best possible pattern, as hitting her requires her being at a specific point in her animation.
Excellent research! Did I understand that right, that you can manipulate boss rng by waiting at the start menu?
I have some questions in regard to your rat fights. Are you reacting to his rng and fighting him differently depending on what he gives you? Or are you manipulating him somehow? A couple of your strats I’ve never seen before.
Impeccable routing improvements. You could definitely make this 7:5x if you wanted. Haven’t seen such clean execution since Endy and Garadas. Great job, man. Thank you for keeping this game alive and improving my routes.
Wow! Incredible routing, and great execution. Took this category to a whole new level. Grats!
I’m not entirely against adding it. The bad ending run was just beaten not long ago after seven years. So you never really know what might gain a little steam. If it comes to some kind of vote, I’d vote yes.
I wouldn’t have any issue with it, personally. I don’t have a competitive time in this game, so take my opinion with a grain of salt. At the very worst, if it’s controversial, a category could be created and should be sufficient for both camps, imho.
All my DuckTales streams are muted. It’s definitely a thing. The game video only for verification is perfectly fine. Getting parts of streams muted for DT audio has been happening as long as I’ve been running it.
Hey, congrats! Having seen this new route, I think this can be completed much faster now. So glad someone’s running this category!
It’s no problem at all! The categories can be a bit disorienting.
There’s been a pacifist run for quite a long time. You’re welcome to submit your run to that category. The current record time is 8:03 by EndySWE.
If you’re interested, there are also good and bad ending categories. The bad ending category I put a lot of routing time into, specifically.
I love to see new names on those leaderboards.
I agree with this except only Chip runs should count. :P
I say absolutely, let’s do it. Are there any points in the game where you need to use tail? I honestly can’t remember.
There’s no difference in the categories when the top strats are being used, so we collectively decided that separate normal and difficult categories aren’t useful. We had them as separate categories for a number of years. It doesn’t make much sense to add a category for the purpose of using slower strats. However, if you wanna try a fun secondary category, I recommend the bad ending. It’s a lot more involved in what you need to consider to complete the run.
Tootoo is correct. It’s the lateral movement that will cause you to take hits from the bosses. You can really take advantage of this, and sometimes seemingly move through the hitbox as long as you’re pogoing in a directly upward trajectory.
