Cool that someone is working on this one again. Things that I thought of while watching. I dont really see the point of talking to the statue, except for some meaningless text that takes alot of frames ;)
I want to add entertainment with references to ''the past''. Otherwise, the game is quite short
Try to setup some macros before entering the battle, they will save you alot of time while fighting your enemies.
for the first fight, macros take longer because it attacks igglanova; spawns have time to attack. maybe for the following ones. maybe for the second one
How come you didnt kill Hahn at the first Igglandova? He is kinda usless and even if you place him on defend he will first take frames, combat input and last steal your partymembers exp ;)
killing him takes more time than making him just stand him in defence. besides, he resurects before the 2nd igglanova fight
Try to walk smarter, like in a straight line. I know that you dont lose any frames, but it looks better.
i didn't test it, but i don't think it makes a difference. and since the characters move so quickly, this is convenient
Plan your lvling later on... and not like I did(Kill a worm, go to the inn, rest, repeat). Instead Kill the son-of-the-worm, teleport to the garage(were you find the landover), step on the healingpod and teleport back.
hun? SHould I avoid the sandworm or not?

to save time, i need chop chop for the uparupa; it counters any attack. I think the Worm does too. Using spells (even with Sten) uses more frames PLus, since I don't level up, I'm not sure Katt can do decent damage

In my test run, I survived the gremlin fight below level 18. BUt it was such a pain... I will keep Nina alive only until I really need warp. otherwise I warp with death

I had to cook again http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/1936197327/Breath%20of%20Fire%20II%20%28U%29.smv and it was worth it! I cut 9,5K frames from the previous cooking run. I got lucky inside the queen edit : and that's almost 11k frames behind the original run

i was thinking about the silvertusk sidequest (Myau) and the last job at the guild, mainly. and also the wreckage, right after we get rika SHould I get the robot's special weapons? These quests are long, but I can gain much needed experience

3, in fact (I'm also working on PS4). Doing the same one over and over again gets tedious

I do not suggest adding entertainment, you should try for the lowest time possible since this run is already going to be many hours long.
really? it's one of the RPGs I know of with the least battles. I should try with and without, I suppose

for the statue : I want to show as many references to previous PS as possible (entertainment). That's why my run might be longer than expected... for the macro : I can give it a try. Will I always attack the monster generating other monsters with vortex? for the killling off : that was actually much slower (over 200 frames). Maybe if I unequip him...
