FMV Skips

It can happen in The Legend of Dragoon speedrunning, due to the imperfect playback of the PS2 Slims emulation layers for PS1 games, that FMVs actually randomly go away. I have witnessed the same issue even on some PC Emulators to randomly occur which is one of several emulation specific bugs this game seems to have. Since that is unpredictable and not even necessarily due to bad hardware I suggest that we just add the time of the skipped fmv, should that have happened on a run. That behavior I am used to for example from FF7, a previous Any% Console WR was treated that way. I did thus accept kyos run and edited the time to match as if the opening FMV had played.

@everone for future submissions, if your run skipped a movie, just look at the WR to tell how much time you lost, add that time to your submission and add a small comment why submitted time and displayed time in the Vod dont match.

Greetz mates, have fun.

Thanks mees! Yeah I have a 50/50 shot of skipping the first FMV, I have no issues adding the time back on if an FMV is skipped due to whatever causes it!

Downvote ^ obvious scammer, must ban immediately.

This game on the PS2 is scary. Softlocks, credit locks, FMV skips LUL
