As always, it depends if anyone wants to run them. With most obscure speedrun categories, they get added to the leaderboards after someone starts running it. |

... not "mine out a space the size of a chunk". Why are border offsets allowed? They should at least be a separate category. |

I think that would be faster, but it's so easy to get hit in this game that pretty much all runners want two cat suits for safety, so I think it's just nobody has thought of it? |

In general, the attitude here and in most speedrunning communities is that if you want a category to be created, you should start by actually running it yourself. Otherwise there's no proof that anyone is actually going to run it, and if a category doesn't have runs, is it really a category? |

The whole point of this is to clear up the Minecraft leaderboard I'm assuming, but none of the runs there have been posted here? That seems like it completely defeats the purpose of making this. |

I noticed the part about subtracting time for the DLC cutscenes is in the All Dungeons leaderboard rules and not in All Main Quests where it belongs. |

Forum: Shenmue Thread: All Cassettes runs? Started by: sporkaganzasporkaganza |
That's a shame. Oh, well. Shenmue is a game that really resists being speedrun, isn't it? |
Forum: Shenmue Thread: All Cassettes runs? Started by: sporkaganzasporkaganza |
There really aren't many good categories for Shenmue 1 because of the nature of the game - the lack of cutscene skips plus the forklift stuff at the end means a lot of "auto-scrollers". I've been thinking about new categories that might be worthwhile and one that does come to mind is collecting all the cassette tapes. There is some lottery RNG but it's pretty minimal compared to the prospect of say, collecting all the figures, and although not all the tapes are available from the beginning (it's date-dependent) all of them are available before December ends and the intervening days could be passed by failing the stealth section over and over. Plus, you don't have to play through the whole game, so the forklift would be kept to a minimum. This may be an interesting run, but I haven't played the game myself so I'm commenting from an outsider's perspective. Thoughts? |

I mean, if you take away the faster load times what's even the point of running the games on PC besides that it's easier to get? |
Forum: Shenmue II Thread: Re-release: New Game or New Game+? Started by: sporkaganzasporkaganza |
Huh. That's really weird. |
Forum: Shenmue II Thread: Re-release: New Game or New Game+? Started by: sporkaganzasporkaganza (edited: ) |
The re-release allows you to skip cutscenes, which is the only difference between new game plus and new game in previous releases. I've already noticed some re-release runs get posted in multiple categories, giving a false impression of some kind of difference where none exists. Shouldn't there be a standard? Unless there is some difference I should be aware of. |
