This is my first TAS. So I would appreciate some feedback, it is not meant to be fast. I hope it's at least somewhat entertaining.
I will make always TASing, but not on TASvideos where you have an amazing privilege, so don't answer at this thread, because I go directly to do request for close my account.
I have to be honest with all of you. At the beginning this TAS wasn't supposed to be submitted on the site, it was a first Valentine's fool to make some love on this amazing site :D. For me, this TAS wasn't "serious" anymore even if I made the best as I can on (I could do better as well). But the community wants it to be published and she is interrested by my baby so I let you all, judges and the community, decide its future <3.
i really want hints
I suppose his means the DK run should have "uses a sub-optimal character" added, huh?
Note: This tag is only applicable if the fastest character is available for the first playthrough. This means that default characters are not considered suboptimal if unlocking a faster character entails completing the game at least once (see Second quest/Post-game completion).
I know this submission is probably going to go in Moons as a separate branch, but for Vaulting purposes (if the entertainment votes ever dropped low enough to put it there) would that mean this submission would obsolete the current submission with Donkey Kong?
I actually started out with the PS1 version and would say that the difference in difficulty is very minimal. But if you finish all five different paths you can unlock higher difficulties in the options.
However, when it was localized into English, there were a number of gameplay changes implemented by Working Designs, the American publisher. Working Designs was known to tinker with gameplay elements, usually to make them more difficult, but they really went overboard with this one. The very essence of the power draining mechanics have changed. Previously, you could use any of the weapons as much as you wanted - now, all weapons drain spirit power as you use them. To make up for this, when you attack enemies with the same class, you'll replenish your own Spirit meter in addition to depleting theirs. This is actually really useful in certain boss battles when your spirit is depleted, since you can just suck the strength back out of them. Additionally, some of the weapons in the Japanese version were pretty unbalanced, and this seems to be a way to keep players from abusing the more powerful attacks. Ultimately, however, the changes do more harm than good. Most of the weapons drain way too much power to be useful. It also pretty much forces you to drain every enemy before killing them, and potentially you can expend more energy than you replenish. It also forces you to use the weakest weapons in most cases, since that usually expends the least amount of Spirit. Quite simply, the game is already complicated enough trying to deal with the different classes - keeping track of ammo conservation just isn't fun. Furthermore, Working Designs upped the difficulty by increasing the damage inflicted by enemies, as well as making all of the items in the shops more expensive. The latter solves nothing - having to stop and cash bash enemies to be able afford upgraded weapons and health replenishments was already somewhat tedious in the Japanese release, but this just makes everything worse.
It's possible to shoot a single enemy multiple times, but is unnecessary.
As death animation varies on where they the enemy is hit, some deaths are faster than others.
Dang.... toward the end, (level 48) even looks difficult for a TAS-racer to win them! I'm wondering if they put level 48 in there as the "kill screen" for this game, thinking no one would beat it.
How about an "award that is not an award". Like no trophy, but only a mention somewhere in the forum.
In general, do you enjoy watching speedruns with glitches or without glitches?
And I'd replace Gradius with one of these: [2505] GC Super Smash Bros. Melee "Adventure Mode" by numerics in 10:23.48 [1955] SNES Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 "playaround" by SDR, Thevlackdemonn2294 & Dark Noob in 30:28.38 My vote is for absurd funny glitches of UMK3. I'm not picking Marvel x Capcom, because its rating is lower than any of the above.
I'm going to knack on the judgement here. I told you ThunderAxe to be careful with this submission. You didn't take my warning to heart at all.
Hello, i use Bizhawk 2.2.1 and with my snes roms the sounds jump approximately every 15 frames, i don't find a solution so i would ask you if anyone has a fix. Thank you for your help.
