Indiana, USAThe category has been added. I really don't like those BotW timing rules (I have a lot of thoughts on how the 3D Zelda community defines their categories but that's for another day), so I just allowed unlimited segments without real-time constraints, but with a minimum segment length. The timing rules and wordings are negotiable, but I purposefully made them as inclusive as I could without inviting way too much savescumming. I figure if so many people start running DWM2 that someone runs Max Catalog in ways that oppose the spirit of the run, we can revisit the definitions.
I've been mulling this over, and will try to post my thoughts at some point this weekend. tl;dr my only issue is with the breaks/timing rules. They're just weird. I might want to research some other games with long runs, maybe some RPGs specifically, and gather some more opinions. There isn't a good DQRTA precedent to follow here, but at the same time, I don't think DQM2 Max Catalog really needs to follow or set a precedent; it's not so hot a run that if DQ12 Any% ends up being thirty hours long, we'll feel a need to use the DQM2 Max Catalog rules as a starting point. So I should stop overthinking this, I guess. 🤔nervously glances at thousand words of incoherent rambling he's written up so far
I've updated the category rules for both RETRO categories. Square-Enix's streaming guidelines don't seem to mention not showing the ending/credits anymore, so I've removed that part, but left an explanation of when timing starts and ends. If you want anything else changed, or more translations added, just let me know.
Updated YT link from "/live/" format to "/watch" format so that it embeds in SRC properly.
Run originally submitted as Dragon Quest; corrected to Dracky Quest.
Sorry for the late reply. I created a new category to separate glitched runs from manipulated runs. "Any% NMG" (No Major Glitches) is now intended to be like Nico's "通常ED" category. "Any%" allows RNG manipulation/situation reproduction and other glitches and sequence breaks. If we need it broken down further, we can add more categories.
Created a true "Any%" category for this run, as it appears to use RNG manipulations, and verified it. I'm not the most knowledgeable person on DQ6, but this run's been waiting in the queue for almost a year.
Changed submission video to the YT link because the Twitch link seems to have expired (twitch.tv/videos/2139471655?filter=archives&sort=time - perhaps this was a past broadcast link instead of a highlight?)
Agreed, and moved to a new Professional category.
Per a discussion and survey held in the DQRTA Discord server last month, we've updated the rules for the following English-language Dragon Quest games to allow the use of turbo controllers:
Dragon Warrior IV (NES) Dragon Warrior I (GBC) Dragon Warrior II (GBC) Dragon Warrior III (GBC) Dragon Warrior Monsters (GBC) Dragon Warrior Monsters 2 (GBC) Dragon Warrior VII (PS1) Dragon Quest VIII (PS2) Dragon Quest XI (All Platforms) Dragon Quest I (Switch) Dragon Quest II (Switch) Dragon Quest III (Switch)
Allowing turbo, at least for systems that have controller ports, will be the default/standard going forward for RPG-style Dragon Quest games, but all games are still free to change their own rules by runner consensus. Games that have have new manipulations or glitches made RTA-viable due to the allowance of turbo may have new categories created.
A summary of the community discussion and survey results can be found in the DQRTA Discord's #announcements channel. The general response was overwhelmingly positive, except for runners of NES 1-3 (still positive, but not overwhelmingly), so those games are currently the exception to the new standard. The more traditional RPG games were the focus of the conversation, so other spinoffs were not changed, and the (3)DS games were left alone due to there being no easy way to play with turbo on-console.
