United States@XanderIsALoser Might be a consideration in the future. I have no idea myself if even Ratbeard% should stay on the boards because nobody besides myself has run it in the several months it has existed.
On my game, Pirate101, I remember thinking the boundary for Fin% was just under 13 minutes, but shocked myself by getting a 12:31. Isn't directly related, but then another person by the name of ImPoop began running the game as well, I thought the boundary was just under 12 minutes after he started to take the record down close to that range, but another shock happened when he got an 11:26. Then that record stood for a year before it was beaten about 3 and a half weeks ago, so I guess that record was good.

I think currently HL% Current is the main thing that is still needed and most likely will be for a decently long time. All other Legacy WRs have been beaten on Current. I agree with Tech's suggestion to still have it as a variable but not as a subcategory. Maybe until EU gets the update there could be a subcategory for EU potentially because despite it being the same as Legacy, it is the only one possible to run currently.
Yeah, currently I'm less motivated to run especially with the update and the fact that I'm more motivated on a different game. From a Producer's Letter I think I read, it seems they intend to continue the changes and bring new stuff to other streets, which would further kill my motivation. But I agree with the fact that this is probably a better idea than the carry co-op idea, and could maybe revive my motivation if it was added.
Don't know, I haven't done runs in a while, but I could do one eventually (I'd leave the timer and recording on and take a break if I had to, I think that should be fair game) Also, maybe a co-op could be considered if all people started at the same time and were all on clean characters. (and maybe all provided video) This would be tedious on verification though and maybe would warrant more mods.
another thing to consider would be the fact that yeah there's another game with a ridiculously long speedrun but this game is not particularly popular in terms of speedrunning and the categories only go up to 1 hour at most currently so the category would likely go unran.
Did some runs of General Akilles% yesterday and my current PB is 22:33 (4 minutes away from old version WR on a pretty good run, and 2 seconds better than my old version PB, but my old version PB was really really bad). I'd say it's probably best to change all categories into legacy and current.
Yeah legacy and current seems like the way to go, I agree with Tech's suggestion. We'll need to do some testing before implementing it, though.
There is no official Discord server currently to my knowledge.
Basically this would be trying to complete the tutorial as fast as possible. It's an interesting idea and I might add that I have no idea why this isn't a thing yet (This would also be an IL category)
It would be better if you would post this in the game's specific forum: https://speedrun.com/darksouls2/forum There, you would find more people who would be able to help you.
Final update: Managed to search up a solution! (Turns out many people have had problems with Fusion appearing in OBS before) I just had to disable aero in Fusion.ini.
