On another topic @ep3o @Monojira please fix the leaderboard remove the in game time and keep real time as the only attribute.
First place right now is 18m but he is second because of his in game time does this look like a good leaderboard?
I can literally right now get in game play the first ever run on king of ireland get like 2 hours on it and be first place cause i have the least amount of game time.
@YummierGravy i get what you are saying i was just thinking that would save time instead of reloading over and over for that "perfect" starting point but thinking more on it i could definetly see some competition here maybe between the diplomatic education route and military education route.
The same guy just made a 2h29m times are dropping fast.
I just checked youtube and saw someone beat the game in 3h11m makes me feel like a chimpanzee for failing to beat the race mission on hard for 3 hours.
Looks like it's gonna get interesting soon.
Cause the racing mission is a huge obstacle in my eyes.
Also dying in this game is really easy on hard difficulty even when you try to just run past enemies as quick as you can.
I doubt people would enjoy speedrunning on hard and we would only see it done on easy but i don't know.
Would love to hear what you guys think on what realisticly fun speedrunning on this is gonna look like.
I think the speed running category for king of Ireland is too broad and has some rng built into it .
Would be better if you would only be allowed to start as a certain count or better off only able to run a save file with the exact same setting .
So there would be no difference in what education, troop amount , council a player has.
This would lead to friendly competition trying to see what people could come up with to shorten the time of each run.
