To my understanding the M9-2 is taken because it’s faster to just take it by mashing instead of managing the inventory. It’s not used for anything I recall.

As for the micro-uzi, unless the route was changed (and maybe it was), I always did all 3 upgrades regardless of which weapon. The difference comes in day 5, when you go to warehouse. If short a tool it generally means you missed one somewhere. Don’t think I ever found myself missing one.

Again assuming the current route hasn’t drastically changed

Hey there! FFV discord is the general FF Speedrun Discord. It does not have it's own Discord at this time.

Feel free to join the discord if you need any advice or anything!

hey hey! Yep this is the correct place for submitting runs. All Console runs are together in 1 leaderboard since no one has run console since the original release really when it was PS4 only I believe. PC came out a year later and most runners switched over there. Switch dropped in 2018.

JP is already a separate category for the game

Yep! It’s linked at the top of the page with the discord icon. Near the follow button

Hey there! While I do enjoy the dedication and such for the time spent doing the run. The run would need to be done in 1 single setting and there appear to be breaks. Plus there is not an agreed upon timing for Start or End. In addition there is a lot of other content going on, like Just Chatting and GTA

Plus watching part of the video, it appears to be more of a Casual Playthrough since all cutscenes are being watched vs actually speedrunning being done in the game.

Once leaderboards are fully open, we're happy to have people submit runs that clearly showcase an attempt to speedrun game.

Hey duders

It does work with Steam version since we have a few runners using it on Steam. Try joining the discord and asking there and we can provide guidance

Nothing wrong with Meme categories :)

if the 2 Gotters you received are from the Yuffie section only then it is allowed.

What isn't allowed currently is using 3 Gotters in the Main campaign because it requires beating Yuffie DLC first then beating Weiss and on PS5, Intermission isn't free like it is on PC.

PC rules and boards are being figured out currently still while Load remover is being worked on, but if it's the double Gotter from Yuffie's side only then it is allowed

but if people wanna do runs and get them posted, we can always look at getting them up sooner in theory but you'll wanna do another run once the Load Remover is out

Hello! so for splits, I used Livesplits and they have a feature to download ones from this site. I did that to get them.

If not you can look at any of the videos and just copy what you see there.

I also used the guide in the section when I learned this run and just adjusted accordingly from experience and wrote my own. The ones in the Guide section is definitely written in a way that works better for someone who knows the run.

I recommend watching along side a video and learning from that as well for pathing and such

I recommend joining the FF Speedruns discord as well https://discord.gg/kfdrfWm7 we'd all be happy to answer questions in the moment.

Look forward to seeing how you do!

cool beans! thanks for the information

So I own a physical US copy but I understand Japanese is faster. Is there a guide for getting a digital copy of this game from the Japanese PSN store that one can use or follow?

Or how does everyone else who plays the Japanese one do it?

(Future Runner for this game, just looking to get set up at some point)

awesome thanks!

Hello there! I was curious about something. I noticed a few runs submitted using the emulator.

Is there a list of emulators we are allowed to use somewhere? I currently have Bizhawk installed on my PC
