Couple questions

United States

Hey, new to Drakengard speedrunning and interested in learning this game, just wanted to ask/mention some things.

First, I saw a forum post saying that ILs will be added - the post was made about 2 years ago, but currently the only available ILs are the DLCs. Are the main game ILs still planned to be added?

Second question, presumably "official console hardware with no modifications" means no SSD even if CFW isn't used? I would be running on emulator anyway since I have the disc version on console, but it seems odd to me to require longer loads and makes that version of the game arguably not worth running at all.

Third isn't really a question, but the Discord link doesn't work, otherwise I would have asked these questions there.

Thanks in advance!

Oh it seems like the link broke very recently, it was working not long ago. Thank you! I will change it now. We haven't added ILs for the main game as the topic haven't been brought up, I been wanting to change the Sisters DLCs to be it's own category since as of the moment, they are a bit hidden in there and we could do something about Main Game IL's instead if there's enough interest!

As for the console, that rule was made before I was a mod but it probably has to do for better fairness. That being said, there have been a couple out of date rules that I updated recently and I know a few people have modified consoles regardless so I'll see if we can talk that as there aren't many console players anyway due to the game having an insane better performance on emulator, making it more consistent.

Thanks again for pointing out the link was dead!

@Art_Izon a lot within the community has changed since then, Back when I was involved with the game and board more I was the only one working on IL's at the time and then we had several people wanting to run the DLC so thats kinda where things changed once more devoted and interested people came to start speedrunning with the improvements to Emulation being surely needed to make it more accessible and consistent as @IntonerAlice as pointed out. Rules will always change or evolve since back then it was only around 3 or so people and nothing was ever concrete nor should it be. Many new things have been found since then so as with that many changes have followed thanks to all those that have been around working together.
