WR for Plumaxia and Melcosia

I hope I'm not being bothersome! The current Plumaxia and Melcosia any% records are 31:25 and 1:53:33 respectively.

However, the Walsamer WR by hewhoamareismyself clocks in Plumaxia at 23:42 and Melcosia at 43:04.

Which times would officially count?

Oh boy I don't have notifications for these I should fix that.

The PC version has a bunch of faster stuff so the way we were doing it early days was my runs were different because even though the times were faster, the game has you keep going. It doesn't end there and the goal is to beat the game. If you beat the first 3 worlds and don't get an end cutscene, it's not plumaxia%. This was a temporary solution for 2 people that played the game and one who never submitted a run but had strong opinions, and of course a temporary solution is never changed until absolutely necessary.

I'd invite more discussion if people have opinions. The community was 3 people then, and only one of us is still around. To say that that original opinion matters more because I registered this game would be silly.

I see.

It makes total sense to me to have "Plumaxia (PS only)" and "Melcosia (PS only)" since both of them trigger cutscenes on the PS. And then a "Walsamer (PC only)". I never quite thought of it that way, that the triggered cutscene would be the end.

I'll have to redo my runs but I'm totally cool with that. I think it just wasn't clear enough for me the first time.

Hi there I was just going to suggest splitting the leaderboard into PS and PC but I was beaten to it. Congrats on the runs though Dave :)

Thanks Plushy! I didn't understand all the differences between PS and PC but now it makes way more sense.

I just did a run for Plumaxia on PS and hooooly moly I've got some work to do....
