disclaimer: i am uninformed and have never even beat one way out, let alone speedrun it; i am uninformed.
currently for full game categories, runs start the frame you load in. i think it would make more sense for runs to start the first frame you move, so you can get energy before the run starts. speedrunning one way out isn't about answering questions fast, so it would only make sense for that to not be a part of speedrunning the game.
i'd love to hear other peoples' opinions on this.
Tbh I agree, I honestly don't know why retro made that the starting frame when the starting frame for Don't Look Down hasn't included answering questions for months now.
I agree with @calumm, idk why it is the frame you load in. It makes more sense to start a run once you move. How fast you can spam shouldn't be a contributing factor in your overall time
Ok this is like 2 months old but yeah we changed the starting frame of tutorial because we spawned in different spots and it was unnecessary RNG, so I don't see the reason why we shouldn't change it to first frame the barrier is broken
