Very surprised I cannot find a run of this game...

...Phantom Dust!

I am legitimately shocked that no one on here or youtube has run Phantom Dust. It's such a great game and although it has just a cult following, it's not super obscure or anything.

Has anyone considered this? Are there runs out there that I just haven't found yet? Let me know your thoughts on this, because I'm heavily considering it, although it would be my longest run yet, by far.

At a glance: a few years ago somebody was talking about routing on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/speedrun/comments/6ehoiw/has_anyone_ever_tried_to_route_the_campaign_of/ And somebody else was talking about requesting it here: https://www.speedrun.com/Speedrunning/thread/89hjs

As far as I can tell neither of those people went through with it, and I don't see any evidence of anyone else doing runs.

It shouldn't be that surprising that it hasn't been run though. I'd never even heard of the game until just now, and its original release wasn't exactly successful (it only sold like 50k copies in NA, and even less in Japan). The remaster fared much better (and is apparently free nowadays), but I'm getting the impression that the multiplayer was always the more popular aspect of the game.
