Is S-Rank really enough of a difference to be considered it's own category?

Personally I would replace S-Rank with Glitchless, then below have seg Any%/Any% Glitchless

Spain

Why? S-Rank can be achieved with the same bowgun glitch and it's a different route for the first part.

And there was more S-Rank runs but the wikia page was deleted before they got posted here.

Add segmented any% anyways, seeing how the other games have 5 to 10 categories this would do no harm.

The only thing that is different is giving the meds to rodrigo and not using any fas. To me it would just look better if it was replaced with glitchless

Spain

Who asks for glitchless anyways? There's absolutely the need to remove S Rank in order to add Glitchless? Sigh.

There's actually more S-Rank runs than Glitchless, they're just scattered around highlights and YouTube now.

Ireland

There are only 3 on YT.. It would just look better with a separate glitchless category that's all

Spain

I am totally ok for a Glitchless page. Removing S-Rank is bullshit though, just that.

Why not just combine S-Rank and Glitchless into the same category? Then the route would be radically different enough to justify having both these stipulations.

No FASĀ¤ Kappa

Shut up, Trance :(

Yeah, Liv, I see that, and it'd be up to Zenix if he wanted to recategorize his run as just a regular glitched for the sake of altering categories or not.

I think it'd be a fun addition to the lineup.

S-Rank + Glitchless as the category sounds interesting tbh. But still I don't see the point to get rid of S-Rank with the glitch. Seeing other games it will not be a problem to just add 2 more categories.

Then again I honestly think we should discuss changes and new speedstuff for this game when it becomes more active (with an eventual PC port hopefully), not now. Me and eventually Trance doing runs now and then is not going to be enough to call this game "alive" speedrunning-wise. We need actual interest from the people in the game itself, and more categories changes won't be enough for that.

Game length and the particular bullshit regarding hitboxes from zombies and bandersnatchers are one of the main reasons this game is still obscure in number of runners imo, but essentially the huge game length is a problem amongst classic RE runners.

Can i sumbit emu run?

Ireland

Of course, just as along as it is not the TAS run Kappa

Zenix, why did you hide my glitchless run? I think, it is different run OpieOP

Spain

What run? I think I accepted a run of yours a while ago :/
