To anyone who hasn't seen the announcement on Discord, we've finally created the new leaderboard for CSR. Thanks to everyone for showing interest in this category so that it could be established! Please submit any runs using CSR version 0.7 or above that you'd like to see on the board at this link here: https://www.speedrun.com/ff9?h=cutscene-remover-any-no-major-skips&x=7kjygpxk-ylpgk0jl.192x60jq
Hey, I'm just seeing these replies now. I was running this game on macOS before, which might not have access to the downgrade on Steam. I still think that a new category would be cool for the final version of the game, but I'll definitely give the old version a shot now that I'm on Windows, thanks so much!
(alternatively, I might have been spelling it "millenniumedition" before without realizing, lmao)
What are people's feelings about running this game on the current Steam version? I was writing a route for myself based on SleepeyBunney's any% no HAP skip guide, and I got my time just under 18 mins after a few tries without any major mistakes.
I think the biggest time loss is not being able to condense chapters 1 & 2 into a single segment. I can't report Dylan for content infringement in chapter 1, only for malicious software since that's all he has in his FLIST, so I have to play Outlaw to trigger the first time skip, then report him for the content infringement in chapter 2. There are other time losses which have been noted already, like having to visit the two L&F pages in the present day to trigger Samantha's emails.
Anyway, I was wondering if there's interest in accommodating newer versions of the game in some category, especially since the guide for downgrading versions on Steam no longer works (at least not for me). Thanks y'all!
