Nekin
well you can play and record the game, it does the job at least @Stinkek
Stinkek
Indeed...
Martyste Tendertail
Yeah, as long as you can do that you have all the tools to be a great speedrunner for this game

I'm actually very impressed by Julias setup tbh. I'm pretty sure my 12 year old pc wouldn't have handled the game so well and I'm not even talking about recording it at the same time 😮
Stinkek
Thank my Dad, it was pretty good for its time
louistik
Well tbh, this is one of the first game I had on PC back when I was a kid, and it was running on a 1999-2000 computer so I guess the game is pretty well optimized
louistik
but recording at the same time is indeed quite impressive
Martyste Tendertail
Indeed, XXL 1 is exemplary in optimisation. It runs butter smooth on my Toshiba L500 from 2006, who had quite a rough life.
louistik
And that's even more surprising than the game is actually very pretty for a 2004 game, I mean the textures are clean af
Martyste Tendertail
Well, some people in that time were criticising the emptyness of Normandy, but that's true, lots of areas are well detailed.
louistik
Ah yeah, Normandy is kinda empty indeed lol
louistik
but I find it more pleasant to speedrun than playing it in casual
louistik
I mean Normandy is not too tricky
louistik
and it has a lot of fun skips
louistik
Atm I really can't bear Egypt
Nekin
yeah it's the case for many people here ^^
louistik
Oof good to know I'm not the only one haha, indeed I noticed than even in the best runs, most of the struggles appear in Egypt
NoTeefy
Egypt is kinda meh in speedruns 😄
Stinkek
Egypt wouldn't be a problem for me if it wasn't for that cursed boat course
louistik
Oh yeah I actually lost too much life too many times on it
