Personally I agree with this! It also allows for documentation of these records. There is a few arguments to not make a leaderboard:
1 the RoA3 leaderboards are already online so recordtimes can be tracked ingame
2 there is at least 1 level with a restart-glitch allowing you to skip parts of the track because the castle is no-longer solid. This might require a leaderboardsplit or additional rules for this leaderboard.
There is at least 2 ingame leaderboards: The PC leaderboard and the Console leaderboard. I think this split is nessesary since the non-patched game on console has more momentum/max speed and some patched shortcuts.
I base this mostly on my own experience trying for the La Mancha, Egypte and Dover shortcuts and the grind for Sub 1 minute on Bologna. While WoodyX rampage has an easy-esk route for sub 1.
There is for sure a jump involved. The moment of impact on the stairs-bit (@22 - 23 seconds in the posted video) is a jump. As for hitting it correctly: The video attempt I am able to show are a 1 out of ~30 attempts to get over the wall. I do not know if the other runners have found a more consistent set up. For me: Jump into the stair-shaped wall and pray it works.
First up: Cool idea! Secondly tho: Our LB is kinda small and more misc categories might cause (near)empty places. Also, with my current Timetrial Grind, it would take me forever to get a good run.
Edit: Did an attempt that took 15 minutes, also stacked my Sum of Best with my timetrial PB's+10secs. that would be 10 minutes.
It is a Capcom game, so any platforms they support probably. It is available on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/587620/Okami_HD/
As a small note to the Trento comment: It seems that some timetrial levels do not have all of the castles walls extended with invisible barriers too (A timetrial of Wallachia that shows it: ).
The portal behind the gate is not disabled if the gate is undefeated. Video evidence: I tried leaping the castle of Sparta and encountered an invisible wall. Will try other levels and update if any are possible.
A second game-breaking clip/skip found in the RPS Final. In a good PB (maybe even WR) run, I skip a boss-hit cutscene and get stuck inside the pit.
Glorious Zeppelin and the Problem is shown at the end. I tried stacking into the smaller doll outside the pit but charlie can't reach there.. Game over
During a speedrun attempt I clipped through the railing after flying with the pelican. Doesn't seem to have any uses but a funny moment none the less.
Video: Clipping through near the end.
I got a sub 34 pace run dying by a double Out of Bounds clip during the Rock Paper Scissors stackbattle. First time I quit and reloaded and it happened again. Not usefull but odd to say the least. at the end (of course) around 33 minute mark.
@Guite, I see you look at the floor at some spots in the game and dont trigger the cutscene around that area (Wedgie-gate ambassador and station-3 entrance), are you skipping it by doing so?
