I think there was a different forum talking about this, but anyways idk you don't many bosses, you can do wooded reroute and do the other 3 moons to skip spewart, and you can lake clip and pretty much any other bosses are required to get the moons and that's what they do in any% so it's just basically any%
Even if you didn't do Lake Clip, Lake probably wouldn't be that much longer.
Nice idea,BUT ou have to complete the moon cave,wich you can skip in speedruns. A speedrun of this category is such impossible to subhour,but can be possible under 1 hour and 45 seconds.
There's not. There's an invisible wall across the gap, and Bowser won't load in if you don't collect the moon.
The affected kingdoms would be Lake (for most top runners), Wooded (for non-top runners), and Luncheon. Not a big difference, but seeing how it rewards Lake Clip and Nut Clip while still being unique in one kingdom, it could be interesting.
If you expand the idea to Minimum Story Moons, you add a mandatory Flower Road Skip in Wooded, and the Bullet Billding route in Metro should become appealing again. Snow will get a unique clip as well, and reward Snow Dram more.
So to conclude, Minimum Story Moons would reward some advanced potential Any% tricks more than Any% itself does. This is close to the effect you would get from the way more boring Yawn%, and it could very well be an interesting category for both show-off and practice.
Yes it is, that's was the whole point of this category and this thread. Were you paying attention?
