As a foreword, I'm not really a speedrunner, I just thought I'd share this because it might lead to some kind of skip in the future.
When playing casually, I found that it's possible to make the "load game" dialogue appear twice when loading a save.
Just select your save, and then mash A and UP as fast as possible. If it's fast enough, when you hit the Load button, the dialogue will close and the game will load, but then the "load game" dialogue will appear again. Both load and cancel have the same effect casually (it just loads the game as normal) but it's possible that if you press load on both of the dialogue boxes there could be some double-loading kind of stuff.
Again, I haven't tested any side effects of this, not that I would even know how to. It's possible that pressing load twice does the exact same thing as pressing it once, but depending on the game, small things like this can sometimes be gold mines for strange bugs and glitches.
Here's a video of me executing it (yes, I'm using the Tales of Zestiria Fix mod, but I set my FPS to 30): Things get especially interesting around 1:55
Does this mean that you aren't allowed to run or does it mean you aren't allowed to autorun?
