Germany@Scientific_Guy No, first visit means you don't leave the kingdom at all until you're finished. Like the Seaside/Snow/Bowser's painting in NPG, the painting is always excluded because the intended way to get that moon isn't available firstvisit
Obviously, like everything else on this board, this suggestion needs runners (or 2+ former runners who have lost their vids)
Would probably be at the top of the IL board. I could see myself running that, good idea!
Peach% is a postgame category that remains interesting because we disallow warping to checkpoints - that way it keeps decent amounts of movement and routing rather than just being full of downtime
Farming 12.6k coins after Any% currently takes about 15 minutes thanks to LBW. With Hide it, you won't even have to play much yourself. You still need an Any% file and have to get a few checkpoints ofc
Btw Peach% bans warps, so the only thing you need is World Peace
Well this is one fight per boss, the AUM painting would just be a second Bowser fight which imo isn't really necessary. It's still all bosses with 1 Bowser fight
Is Madame Broodal refightable an unlimited number of times? This sounds like a well-balanced category to me, where you fight each of the bosses exactly once
Iirc some pro did Intended% and it took 2:45 hours or something. So, a lot. Most of that time save is probably cutscene skips and kingdom peace skips
This would be a longer version of Any%, with more unskipped content. Do not compare it with Minimum Cap Throws.
It would be fast to have peace in all kingdoms, so that you can get moons from the moon rocks and just generally have access to more moons. Story moons are typically slow anyway because of the long cutscenes
That's called NG+ and has been considered in the Discord
Both the Minimum Captures and Low Story scores would be revolutionized by such a glitch
Good. Can you open Happy Glass and compare some levels, especially level 3, 60, and 63, against my speedruns?
Amazing! Huge thanks for the very welcoming tone! The last speedrunning community I joined (Happy Glass), I just couldn't seem to find a connection. I hope this speedgame can develop into something!
The Discord server linked on the left does not seem to be focused on gaming, let alone speedrunning this game. I suggest moving to the following Discord Server, as it has been a successful hub for the speedrunners of series like Starcraft, Command&Conquer (until recently), Age of Empires, and Warcraft: https://discord.gg/557sjsu
In (01)Vestholm and (15)Vestholm, you don't actually start out the level by having control over your settlement, but rather with only a Knight. I suggest changing the wording to something less misunderstandable like "Timing starts after the last loading screen before the mission".
Actually, optimally it is only around 3 seconds slower than doing Luncheon normally, because it allows you to skip 2 slow Story moons. However, it is also much harder to do optimally so nobody even considers practicing it right now
If you like to look at the 1P WR for Star%, you can do the same as Fearsome and just select "No" in the filter options for 2P
