PhilippinesJust thought of opening this thread to put all random ramblings about speedrunning Persona 5. This should keep the other threads neat and to-the-point.
Rants, raves, celebratory remarks, I-finally-beat-my-personal-best, I-found-a-nice-route, and any comment about speedrunning can go here.
I'm placing this here to track and analyze times from previous runs. Entries coming soon.
