Good day everyone who is reading this,

I wanted to start running Mercenary Kings Any% on stream for the time being, learning it from scratch and all. Now I got two questions, one concerning only Any% and one concerning all Speedrun methods.

1.) About Any%: Do you need to complete the tutorial or can you skip it by leaving back to the main menu and joining back to the character?

2.) For any run: What about the loading screens? In the Steam folder of MK, there is a launch option setter for the game, one including skipping loading screens. Is that allowed to be used or do you have to keep the loading screens running?
