NoTeefyAnd you can't eliminate all RNG factors out of a game. It would be the fairest (in theory) but not something you'd want to have in speedruns
NoTeefyYou essentially want to play the games as they are (out of the box) and that's it
ViGadeomesand we could actually investigate to discover why crashes and then trying to avoid them
NoTeefyThe only thing that should be mandatory for every game is a load remover because it's something you can't control
NoTeefy@ViGadeomes That's gonna be useless... They are random and caused by the engine overflowing
FailentinHuh... Okay, I can see where you're coming from, but still, I would have liked to at least abolish that annoying RNG factor... But I'll leave it up to the mods^^
NoTeefyI mean you could go even that far and program your own crash prevention / safety-watcher and catch all crashes, reinitialise the game and stuff without any "actual" restart of the game
NoTeefybut that would be a modification and mods are meh in speedrunning
NoTeefyif it's not for an own category
Failentin@ViGadeomes For the most part, crashes happen while you open the pause menu, for example when you want to do a cutscene skip
NoTeefyThe crashes that I experienced were super random and not related to the pause menu. It would just crash the game at certain points where the game loaded new stuff
NoTeefylike before cutscenes end, in loading states, etc
FailentinYeah, I experienced these crashes many times on Switch as well. But on PC, it happens much more often in context with the pause menu
FailentinIt's incredibly unlikely you'll get a run without any crash with the amount of cutscene skips in the current route
FailentinMost notably in the opening cutscene of Pirates Island

Martyste Tendertailoh shet that's awesome
Martyste Tendertailgood for SD too
NoTeefylol I always thought about that but never actually tested it
NoTeefyit looked too far away. I'm also pretty certain that this won't work in the original game
