Since the easy mode skips a few parts of them game, should it be its own category or be taken out of the three, or even keep it in there?

I'm not entirely sure what the community thinks about easy runs. I think at one point we just concluded that easy difficulty wasn't allowed. Since, like you said, it cuts out a portion of the game. Not to mention that not all consoles offer easy difficulty.

I personally dont mind easy mode. It's nothing super serious in my opinion but it's an option in the game. So if people wanna play it, let them do so. There is nothing wrong with it.

In theory it's the fastest mode of the game. Just cause some areas are not included should not ban the whole category. New Game easy would be actually kind of interesting. You dont get the 19,5k Ptas from the knights room, so you have to use a different money route. I'm sure there are more differences to find out than just this, if someone would really route it.

Also if easy would be a real category it wouldn't change anything for other categories. I see no real reason against it.

Well if u have the steam version and live in america, u can play the easy version.

I think a glitchless category would be good to add.

Glitchless doesn't need to be a category to be runned. It's just it's not that much popular. I remember a Japense player P.Suke doing amazing no glitch runs, A-M was talking about him and using some of his NG normal strats for his Ng pro run. I don't mind about easy, people just run what they feel like. They are just 2 mains categories on this game caled Ng Pro and Ng +. Glitchless is kind of interesting but not much people tried it so.

As the official easy mode speed runner, I like it and think it would be cool to see more runs.
