I love these dudes and all but the fact that he's "just" manipulating RNG a whole bunch and knows exactly what's gonna happen, even down to "hey this character is gonna hit their 2% crit chance riiiight HERE!" just kinda makes it boring. Like someone else said earlier, this is just a slow and manual RNG manip TAS. yeah technically this is really impressive, but in action its boring to watch like this required some serious game memory fuckery to map out all these actions to manipulate the RNG seed, godspeed FE nerds

s.i.r.e. posted:Is this one of those playthrough "speedruns" where there isn't much to speed the game up and a lot is determined by RNG? Well, all of the RNG is gone since the guy knows how to manipulate it. So it's technically way faster as a result but yeah, you're not going to be seeing absurd nonsense or non-stop action here.

Elliotw2 posted:who the gently caress would have this warped of an opinion I think that's basically Twin Galaxies' rationale. I think they still ban glitches in runs, which is why nobody gives a poo poo about them except when we get to mock them.

I love Fire Emblem, but it wasn't really made for speedrunning. Low turn challenges are much more interesting.

SRPG runs are either complete messes or planned down to the smallest movement, really.

Shame they are using the default Gameboy Player software and not the much nicer GB Interface with Swiss. That fixes all the blurriness the game has right now.

This is pretty much how I feel, I've seen and done enough RNG manipulation (quite a bit on this very game) that the novelty wore off pretty quickly and now it's just another hour of it Corek posted:Also I like the glitch where you can take control of the enemies that nobody in this thread has mentioned The enemy control glitch loving rules and you can do dumb poo poo with it like teach every single character in the game dark magic by taking away a monster's abstract attack from its inventory

The games that people can run blindfolded are also completely predictable abuses of the system. They generally just don't last 90 minutes.

Yea this run isn't any different to me than every other RPG speedrun I've watched. There is a huge amount of work done on the routing setup and an impressive amount of memorization to execute the route. Clinically I find it interesting, but it is mostly background fodder for me.
