Hello! I've been considering getting into speedrunning, but not necessarily a competitive sense because then I have to learn hard frame perfect tricks and the like (like nut jump if I wanna min. cap. in SMO), and play the same darn game over and over and over and over and I get burnt out on some games pretty easily. Any suggestions (games, overall tips, setup (no seriously I have never touched anything like this before), anything)?
