SwedenA mantorok% run would be sweet, just doing the magick pool like rest of the run etc.
muppetsinspace, I'm watching your run right now and it looks pretty good, keep it up!
As for 100 %, yes, all the mentioned items should, imo, should you get in a hundo run, and as ZeldaPirate also mentions, the Max necropsies. Just to clarify shotgun/pistol would be all additional weapons that you can pick up, such as all the weapons in Michael, the firefighter's chapter, getting the elephant shotgun in Edward's chapter and such.
Something that just hit me, and would be like a meme, joke category would be like getting a specific sanity effect, one that doesn't usually appear, like the Hamlet one - Hamlet%. The funny thing would be that it has not (up until this point as least) any strategies to get a specific sanity effect, at least not to my knowledge.
Another would be All runes%, including doing the all three runes in one sitting, IE playing the game three times, if anybody wants to do it, of course, haha!

HI zuur024!
It brings my joy you've found this little horror game and interest in doing something with it, I'm looking forward to your progress and last but not least, good luck, man!
It's alive! (The forum, that is)
Yes, all these ideas seems to be an excellent way of creating new ways of playing it, any%, mantarok%, as well as indivudual lvls. I've been out of the game far too long, but I am still interested in all things you guys have to say about it, of course.
Hey there! Sure, that's sounds good, but what other criteria, like, skipping runes any other items or just like any but with the mantorok? And I guess that finishing the run with the mantorok and not just obtaining it and bam, last split?
All the best!
Cheers.

For some reason I can't see the orginal post, but I agree with Juikuen.
As I've brought up I've issues with loading zones with different wii's, gamecube and with different game discs so using an emulator would imo, be using it "lag free" in whatever sense you can call it that, I hope you get what I mean, haha!
I'm just glad people are interested in running it, feel free to ask any questions, here or to me somehwere in cyber space, lol.
Sorry for late reply but ESA is in Sweden, this years game submission is over but you can still sign up for just hanging around, out of the three years I've been there, I only ran one year, and might go over there this summer as well, it is a hoot n half!
There should be a ESA thread on this very leaderboard, cheers!
Yeah, I think so too! A Mantork% would probably be longer than Any% but longer than 100%, and my guessing is that after you get the rune in Lindsey's chapter things will not be that hard, although you have to concider the magick meter for some characters, which means you can't just use a Mantorok pool all the time!
I simply applied my game for ESA, then there are rounds in which games that are too long or whatever is cut, I made the first cut and since the run was not that long, it got accepted! It was a hoot n a half! You should come to ESA, Zpirate, even if you're not running anything, it's great to meet all kinds of people, runners of course!
I've ordered a new capture card so I might getting back into running as well (it's been broken for over a year, last PB was screeing the TV, old school, lol), although I have a shit ton at uni right now, too.
Maybe for the upcomming summer.
Please forgive me, what I was meaning to say is that I use the Xel'lotath rune and Chattur'gha is my main enemy through out the game, haha! But yeah, it is correct what Aditu is saying, hence using just that one.
Llyno talked about using Ulyaoth (maybe even does it in his latest PB?) because of reasons I don't remember now but he thought it was suppose to be faster actually.
I've thought about 100% for a long time, and in my opinion that in addition to the things you mentioned also including weapons and such items, EG elephant gun etc in Edward's chapter, crossbow in Roberto's and so on.
Also getting the enchanted gladius, which will require strats through out several different chapters.
Regarding other categories than Any% and 100% I've talked with Llyno about categories such as Mantorok% which will simply mean Any% with the Mantorok run and you don't have to collect all other things that you will be required for in a 100% run. I presented this category mostly for practice a 100% but without getting all the items, sorta of a test-thingy.
That's all I had for know.

So in my PB I use the Chattur'gha since the SDA run use that one, but I know Llyno87 been talking about using Xel'lotath instead, and ZeldaPirate not picked Chattur'gha either.
Discuss! I've not looked up if one is faster than another put if there's enough evidence I might change to whatever is fastest.

Greetings ZeldaPirate, and fellow Eternal Darkness speedrunner! First of all, welcome to the small, but cosy community that is speedrunners of Eternal Darkness. I'm glad you wanna be a part of it, doing runs, I'll look on your run soon enough, friend. :)
I made this speedrunning entry back in 2013, basically when I submitted ED for ESA that year (EDIT, it was 2014, lol), and ever since that it exist but barely alive, as you can see.
Yo, check also out the second active runner, Llyno87, he's a great dude.
HMU on whatever social media there is (I should be Zwajken, everywhere) if you have any questions, at all, and I will try to answer them.
Have a good one!

Hey, I'm also wondering about this. Would be cool to do runs on emulator since I don't have my N64 where I live and also the fact that my is PAL.
Too bad, Melis, too bad.
Paid for Housing and Mattress.
Just paid, also read several times, hope it worked out well, otherwise, contact me on every social media there is @Zwajken.
I might as well, although I don't speedrun any GTA games, hehe - https://twitter.com/Zwajken/status/489074130919358464/photo/1
