Hi, is it correct that the All Classes category for this game is NG+ (saved data use is allowed)? Also, are there any plans to create a new New Game category just for All Classes?

https://www.speedrun.com/ffxv#Console_Royal_Edition Hello, I'd like to hear from you. I'd like to talk about the LeaderBoard in Final Fantasy XV." For some reason, only Category in "Console (Royal Edition)" shows PS4 Pro records by default. I don't know why this category only shows PS4 Pro records, since other categories show all console records. I contacted the moderator, but they said they don't know the cause, so I wrote here. I'm sorry for your time, but please check it out.

初めまして。 記録の承認、及びJPカテゴリの新設、ありがとうございます。

さて、表題の通り質問がございます。 私が走行したときにはUSカテゴリしかなかったため、そちらのルールに準じた区間のタイムを計測していました。（名前の決定～Dark kingを撃破） しかし、今新設されたJPカテゴリのルールでは「電源投入～The end」となっています。 １位の記録は「タイトル画面のボタン押下～The end」 ２位の私の記録は「名前決定～The end」（The endのタイミングの補正、ありがとうございます。） ３位の記録は「電源投入～The end」となっています。 このように、区間がばらばらになってしまっているのですが、どれを基準にすればよいでしょうか？ もし、「電源投入～名前決定」までの時間計測が必要な場合、私の記録は＋５秒ほどの追加が必要になります。 これは、連射機を使用して最速で名前を決定した際の平均タイムです。

また、日本のRTAではThe endの描写が始まった瞬間にタイマーストップではなく、The endのペンが動き終わり、ボタンを押して黒枠を消した状態でタイマーストップとなっているため、過去の日本の走者の記録とも違っている状況になっています。

Nice to meet you. Thank you for approving the records and creating a new JP category.

Now, as the title suggests, I have a question. When I drove, there was only a US category, so I timed the sections according to the rules of that category. (Deciding on a name ~ defeating the Dark king) However, the newly established JP category rules say "Power on - The end". The record for first place is "Pressing the button on the title screen - The end". My record for second place is "Name Determination ~ The end" (thank you for the correction of the timing of The end). The record for third place is "Power on - The end". What should I use as a basis for this? If you need to measure the time from "power up to name determination", my record will need an additional +5 seconds or so. This is the average time when the fastest name was determined using a serial shooter.

Also, in the Japanese RTA, the timer stops when the pen of the end is finished moving and the black frame is erased by pressing the button, instead of the timer stop at the moment when the drawing of the end starts, so the situation is different from the record of Japanese runners in the past.
