Thoroughly entertaining, and speedy, so an easy Yes vote here. Always nice to see another SRPG TAS done in fine form---process of elimination gets it one notch closer to somebody giving His Dark Majesty a go~

A Yes vote, but like the others I badly want to see the rest of the episodes destroyed in this fashion.

Watched the entire thing today, reckoned a yes vote as a solid first foray of it on here---quite liked the Slots and Medal game doings, as well as generally commanding the battles along.

Yes for being speedy outright and the sheer entertainment of rolling in it 5-strong. Rough break on the abrupt end after the last boss kill though..

Just another person thinking this nifty in general and waiting to view an encode. Giant runs that don't wind up skipping much of a game in order to satisfy the "blazing through it" criteria tend to be lots of fun to marathon in my experience. If some ultra-perfect run along the same lines comes later, ok, that'll be cool for then and this for now---not to mention possibly inspiring other TAsfolk.

Right, I'm lost...even the daily Motion video is weird about it in the same way as the others....yet slightly better. As in, the character will just be walking, and there will be "beeps" or what have you that I could swear are meant to be menu selection choices, what I think are spell effects after the battle ends, etc. Less choppy though. I'm at a loss unless any other folk have any issues with it.

Gah, .ogv is the same to boot...seeking in VLC 1.1.0 doesn't help either. Weird, but I guess I'll just wait on that Daily Motion and such to check it tomorrow. Could well be some oddity on my PC's part despite it being modern and all.

Archive.org stream and the .mp4 playback seems busted or somehow the audio is ahead of the very choppy video. MPC, latest VLC, GOM....all the same as the stream?

Fantastic watch and a great job. A future where the rest of the Shining games are demolished in style on here is surely a cool one to keep an eye out for.

Yeah, definitely seems to be a sound problem as I've none either.

This was one of the most fantasticly entertaining TAS pieces I've seen---bolstered especially by the fantastic ingame music. Congrats on this fine success!

I think the audio might be a tad ahead of the video in this one....wasn't enough to totally throw me off though. Or am I imagining things?

Very nice run...I can't quite explain it but this game just seems to have a great "style"...probably some combination of the music and art for it. Seems like something that could've been a good franchise since it is quite different from Ninja Gaiden and the like. Excellent TAS.

Encoding seems to have been a bit muddled again. Worked perfectly in VLC...but anything else---not at all. (MPC, GOMPlayer, etc) Video was pretty cool though, congrats!

Nope...movie is seemingly busted. At best I can get it to start, but there's no sound.

I'd guess good potential for a Knife Wolf. His spin special is pretty well broken, even on a normal playthrough. Eq wise...I'd be pretty confident that luck manipulation on the forge could really break the game considering all the TAS magic out there.

Great job on this run! I used to have so much fun just screwing around and fighting everything back when I was a kid. Took me forever to learn how to deal with killing those claw wielding guys though..

Even if a bit off the mark in terms of TAS style-stuff, I think this is pretty cool. If you can ever manage a perfect full game on it...why not put it up on youtube or something? SDA might not work for the score stuff though, so I recommend www.vgmr.us Surely they'd like to have more fresh content.

Considering I was highly impressed by v1...v2 is pretty much a given to me. You already practically have to be operating on super-human levels just to get through the game the way ya did in v1...so cheers for transcending EVEN MORE boundaries in the gameverse to improve v2 so much and in such ways. Good luck on your future endeavors.

Highly entertaining run. Me and a friend actually tried something like this one summer on a real genesis when we were little...needless to say we didn't fare anywhere near as well.

Wow...I JUST got done watching the file. Amazing. If I had the power to vote, it'd be a definite yes to me. Sad to say, I may be the biggest fool here. Been using the site for over a year and yet, just now with this run, have I finally figured out how to get the game playback files to actually work. :smacks self in head and runs around site looking for other gems: Any plans to do the Mafat Conspiracy? Also, I highly recommend the Golgo 13 movies available in R1 to those that enjoyed this run as well as those that were lost. Golgo 13: The Professional and Golgo 13: Queen Bee (Professional is better IMO and closer to the feel of the game)

:) Duck Hunt was endless though wasn't it? I like my Shining in the Darkness/Wizardry example better. I think I see what you are saying a bit better though. A TAS of the NES Rampage....there's boring right there! I still think variety can't hurt though in the long run in terms of adding such a unique game like this though. Of course, how people wind up voting determines everything by the end of the matter. A time will come when all the "standard" games are exhausted for all intents and purposes...

Arbitrary time brackets seem a bit ridiculous IMO. There isn't really a game like this per se that I've ever come across...so I just don't see the whole "more than 10 min OMG BURN" arguement as one that holds any water. If there is that much of an outrage at a gameplay vid taking up nearly an hour...well...just don't choose to watch it when/if it gets published. This game is difficult and takes a LONG time to play through...we're talking RPG levels of time if you don't start the game knowing absolutely everything from a guide or something. Why wouldn't a superhuman playthrough of a game be at least interesting enough in and of itself to warrant not standing against it being posted? Same principle if some insane soul ever managed a runthrough of Shining in the Darkness or some of the Wizardry series. I'd think variety trumps obsoleting the same series of titles into the ground again and again as far as it all goes.

Hmm...something wrong with the Avi it seems. Torrent completed correctly and such but the movie cuts out at around 2hr 58min....no credits or anything. Awesome movie though from what I did see. Poo is the man!

Fantasticly entertaining run. I used to rent this game like once a month back when I was little...never managing to get very far but having a ball regardless. This has got to be a Nesvideos record for most beheadings in a TAS.
