I haven't seen this before If you can return to the Main Menu at this time, you may press Continue to return to the check point, otherwise you may have to close the game unfortunately
If your PC have Nvidia's graphic card , check the Max frame rate and Vsync settings in the Nvidia Control Panel, and also check the monitor refresh rate.
The timing of the first cutscene doesn't seem to be affected by clicks, the black screen transition time between first cutscene more like depends on the loading time of the game
The schedule of my job is not fixed, so I can’t know when I have time to run it in advance. But to celebrate the game's release on Switch Platform, I'll try to find time to run it in a few weeks :)
I also encountered this glitch in Steam version v1.1.6 but after the update, I never saw this glitch again I was surprised to see it again on the Switch version
Hello runners!
About the timing of the stop of the timer.
Basically, since the establishment of the leaderboard, the rule have always said "Timing Ends when "Ultimate Point" ordeal Execution Completed."
It means that when the words "Execute Completed" appear on the screen after defeating Mephistopheles, you can stop the timer.
Maybe it’s because I accidentally pressed the timer late in the earliest submitted record and used this time on the leaderboard.
All current records under Full Game Any% PC didn't stop timing after defeating the final boss until the ending song starts.
So today I will make time corrections for the records that stopped the timer too late.
Full Game Any% PC 1st Place - Megshis 3h13m36s -> 3h12m56s
Full Game Any% PC 2nd Place - sachi_kudou 3h54m19s -> 3h53m39s
Full Game Any% PC 3rd Place - iceoffreeze 3h59m42s -> 3h58m55s (My record had an unreasonable loss of opening animation, so I added an extra 95 seconds to keep it fair)
If you want to submit a new record, please stop the timer when the last "Execute Completed" words appear, then you can enjoy the remaining time with Thelema and watch the ending scene.
Although not sure how big your guide is, I think it will be clearer to to split it into parts if you can, and post them on the Guide page!
Good job! I think if the run could get in 15 minutes, may have to get a perfect rng (like hit more critical attacks?) Btw, I noticed that if you want to show the imgur photo,the link must be i . imgur . com / . png
It sounds so good!
About photos, using imgur links is a good method cuz Speedrun.com seems to be able to directly show the content of imgur links.
Actually, I have found some detailed guides about this game, but most of them are in Japanese like this: https://gamekouryakuworld.net/crystar-topmenu/
I also thought about making guides in English here, but my English is bad, so it is very difficult for me. If you are willing to make it, it will be a great help for English runners who are willing to run this game!
Hi! Glad to see you are interested to run this game! I use Live Split as a timer so far, and this requires manual pressing during speedrun. If you mean an Auto-Split timer dedicated to Crystar,there's no one has made it yet.
So if you still want to try speedrun, you can download Live Split here: https://livesplit.org/
And this is Live Split timer segment file I saved for my Crystar speedrun: https://reurl.cc/3NbNQL
Hope it helps you!
When the corresponding language is not installed in your PC May cause the text display in the game to be missing
I see this glitch in oBRoGANo's record. But this seems to only affect the display of text
After comparing, I found that the reading speed of the game didn't seem to change any faster.
So even if you have this glitch in your record,it will still be accepted.
But I personally don’t recommend running in this situation (especially if you run the True Ending)
Because the text options in Chapter 4 will not be displayed, it is more likely to make you click on the wrong option
The timer starts after pressing the button is correct. So adding some more seconds on your final time is reasonable I'm sorry that my bad English caused a misunderstanding of the rule
I see you press the O button at 0:28 in the video and start timing at 0:32 So your final time should be 1h 00m 37s
Hope you can understand this change on your record Also thanks for your asking!
It sounds reasonable. The records of chapters have been moved to Individual Level Runs. Thank you for your suggestion :)
Thank you for providing this comparison Category has been separated into Switch and PS4 Also glad to see you want to try to speedrun this game Good luck :)
I noticed this in the new Chapter 4 speedrun record
There are 5 languages for game setting.
And I test the reading speed of all versions.
The result of the fastest is Korean version.
The second fastest is English version
Chinese version and Japanese version are about the same speed
I consider it may be related to the way how text displayed (vertical or horizontal) and the number of characters
Yeah! I think it is OK! Also glad to see console players join this game's speedrun. Good luck for your runs! :)
