#xxl-romastered

CaptainAhab
Simaf we need you to break WR !
Simaf
2nd place is still good tbh... To break the WR (for original XXL) would require a ton of regular practice. For Romastered, it would require even more patience...
Simaf
Btw, since Romastered came out, my motivation to run the original version got destroyed... And because most of the little optimizations were destroyed by the long dash, running the remaster seems a bit annoying and no brain to me ...
Martyste Tendertail
Yeah it's difficult to go back to running. Like, first you need to train to become at least as good as you once was...
Spinecone
while we're at it, how does the new passive lock in Greece exactly work out? I'm trying to activate it with the gladiator but it just won't happen unless I have like, only one try before having to start over from the save file
Spinecone
..oh nevermind I got it
Simaf
Yep Marty, ... you need at least 3-4 runs + a couple of hours of practice to get your level back.
Simaf
Plus, to have a chance to get a WR pace, you need to have an entire day off...
Simaf
When I had the opportunity to run, I only had the chance to do one run ...
Martyste Tendertail
Same than you...
Noxus94
Well, XXL R WR is still pretty free. My "WR" is also simply my only finished run
Noxus94
XXL Original is something else, obviously
Martyste Tendertail
Indeed. I'd make quick work of XXL R if I didn't have so many other things to focus on
Simaf
Well, Noxus, I wouldn't want to do a run that does not include any risk in it
Martyste Tendertail
Like, staying afloat with commission drawings. Trying to progress on Blender projects.
Simaf
I want a run to be fun to watch ... not an easy and no brain run
Martyste Tendertail
And I'll likely return to XXL / R once I routed them on my map
Martyste Tendertail
Or if someone would like to help me on that.
Simaf
That's my opinion and my way of thinking about speedrunning ...
Martyste Tendertail
All it takes is drawing a soft line on my map, and maybe stamp a few markers or colors to point out helmet amounts to collect, glitches to perform or seconds to wait.
