While fighting the Ghoul Boss on my Hard mode playthrough Aerith was grabbed by the boss while in it's incorporeal stance while being simultaneously hit by 2x Firaga. (I believe I staggered him).
Because of the height of the mob when Aerith was grabbed it pushed her through the ceiling of the arena and the final cutscene in the warehouse began to play.
After the cutscene all 3 characters were in combat still but located at the exit to the facility. I have been unable to find a way out of this scenario as of yet, but I thought I'd drop this info here for y'all. Initially the game freaked out and crashed, but it does create an auto-save, so you can reload the point and it seemed stable after that.
There's potential skip if necessary (doubt it), but also as a warning to make a safety save before the Ghoul boss until someone finds a way out of this.
PSP/PSV aren't options when submitting a run. They need to be added before you can submit that platform.
May need to ping an admin that the leaderboard moderators don't appear to have any interest in moderating. They're logging in, just not responding to topics.
Funnily enough I helped attempt to route this almost a year ago. Roughly the same time this question was asked.
The results and thoughts of which can be found here: https://forum.speeddemosarchive.com/post/azure_dreams_1002.html
I was actually thinking about bringing this up also. I'm going to be learning the run and because I only have access to the PSN version (EU), I'll have to run on a PSP so that the game is at normal run speed.
Any chance we can have PSP and/or PSV added to the run submission Platform?
