A few notes:
• After getting my previous world record of 58.8, I discovered a few new pieces of tech that would help runners beat me—most notably, the get rock method at Toro's door. This helped swimfan get a 57.5, and his video can be found here:
• In response to losing the WR, I literally discovered four new speedrunning techs in a single day (safe archery range route, stag pattern, consistent Antwerp door, and a one-click exit from Elsa's room) and went on to beat swimfan with this 56.2—all in less than 24 hours.
• I originally unlisted this video for two reasons: I wanted to get a 55.x, and I wanted to record my live mic (which I haven't been able to do as my external sound card exploded). However, with QfG4 being as broken as it is, and with QfG2 having more people looking at it, it'll be a while before I can get back to QfG1, so I decided to just publish this video now.
• I do think 55.x is possible, but it all depends on Elsa's damn framerule, which is random. You can just lose a full second in her room and not be able to do anything about it. Hence, it might be a while before 55.x is a reality.
• Still though, what a time.
