The first TRUE Lunar: The Silver Star 100% speedrun (Live at Completithon 2021)!
I'm really glad I broke the 5:30 barrier on this run because if not (or if I ended at close-to but shy of a barrier I would've had to keep running this).
This was a really good run though. Sure, it wasn't 1000% efficiently-routed, but I doubt routing type mistakes would have saved the run more than 2-3 minutes.
The only thing that was a big time waster was a rare spawn in Black Dragon Cave not showing up for a few minutes.
Luna could have also gotten Destruction a level earlier which would have been cool (I think it's a possibility at least).
Either way, I remedied my old missed cutscene issue (the Shrine Donation jingle) and I broke a major time barrier while streaming to a live speedrun event.
I am very satisfied with this run.
That said, I'm pretty content to leave this category as-is for the future runners of this game.
I'll eventually make a list of all the missables and necessities in the run...but...AAaahhhh...
Thus falls another huge barrier.
This time will never break the 5 hour barrier, so I have nothing left to strive for in that regard. (And if it does, bravo future runner, you are a legend)
It has been quite the journey for what I made as a cheap meme category.
The future may hold some new discoveries, perhaps a sub 5:20 or (SHOCK!) a sub 5:15 even...
But it won't be by me.
...I still have the sub 2:45 and 'most time cut' records to conquer.
Until then...
Wait for me, dear Luna...
I'm on my way.
