So for everyone curious, I did an NG+ run with the autosplitter last night, and it works pretty damn well. The only sorta issue we noticed is that NG+ starts as soon as you load the file, instead of after you confirm your difficulty like on NG.

But everything else works great. Couldn't be happier with it.

Here's the run itself:

And here's the NG+ vs. NG start time comparison: https://streamable.com/1oicmp

I'll give it a look on NG+ here soon!

I didn't even know there WAS a discord that talked about T0 outside of Suzaku Peristylium, so that's pretty wild.

Thanks for the info!

For the record, I'd LOVE to see LRT become a thing for this game, it'd breathe a bit of life back into the speedrun for sure.

They're counted as of right now. There aren't any sort of load removal tools or autosplitters for T0, and given how criminally underloved this game is, probably won't ever be any.

No worries, had a friend in the T0 server clear this up for us a bit ago. I think a bit of my confusion came from watching Golbezz' old WR run at first and just assuming from his run that CCs were mandatory. I think he mentioned something to that effect as well, but I may be misremembering.

I do think it could stand to be made a bit clearer on the boards themselves, but yeah! Looks like the re-route is on! I appreciate the clarification!

I noticed on the PC Agito NG+ record that some of the missions weren't the Code Crimson missions. I thought that was mandatory for NG+ runs? Could us NG+ runners have been running faster missions, like Big Bridge, instead of the 30 minutes guaranteed Chapter 6 mission all this time?

Not to take away from the record, but I'm rather confused here.

Gotcha! A friend has been convincing me for awhile now to properly run this, as it's my favorite game of all time, and I just wanted to make sure I wouldn't be screwing up right off the bat by making use of that.

How about the 2x/3x speed modifier on PC? Is that allowed? If so, is it only on certain places like the world map?
