I suppose the only way to really tell is both hand and face cams

Hi,

Quick question. Is the Tower of Babel Pairs mode leaderboard only available for 1p2c runs? The leaderboard features the dual runners but I noticed the main leaderboard is only solos

Slightly off topic, is the Sticky Keys glitch still working for you guys? I tried it recently and it wasn't working for me.

Traditionally on most speedrun boards if the run is actually being done there is a reason to add it. I would recommend showing Lurk if you've done any runs of this yet with 2p to see if it can be added.

Adding categories with no runs normally isn't a smart move however

We aren't sure if the IGT is reliable. If it is that means both emulator and console could be on the same leaderboard.

As well the standard idea is that if there is expressed interest in ILs they can be added, however expressed interest means someone is actually running the game since just saying one might is not enough to just have an entirely empty board up

You know Melee kills are the easiest part by far given that you can get all of them from the bug room right?

Another factor to note would be with the release of Full Body coming out there likely won't be too much interest in the PC sub category given people would likely be going to the new leaderboard that was previously talked about. It's extremely likely the Catherine Classic category will have little to no submissions given the state of it all.

The best method for me is delaying the monster potion drink and you can check immediately if she's in the top left corner

You need to slightly delay the monster potion used in the start of the level if I remember right

Another thing to mention is in many games with varying difficulty consider that a category can always become a thing if for some reason there is popularity for it.

Most people won't do Normal because Any% and Madhouse both do their jobs effectively while Normal just seems like a more annoying Any%

So is the rule for starting on 1B solely because the rockets are not guaranteed? Wouldn't this be faster regardless since you wouldn't be required to do 1A?

It's honestly best watching a vod. Ruadath's TAS or my most recent PB highlight it well. I also have a video on my channel showing it off. Describing it over text for the exact frame is not possible

You turn over the spawn point for Bobby

Everything should be in the S-Ending guide Text skip is action and item buttons together and then swapping item text

Really you just need to know how to do S, G, H, and D

PSX is not good for speedrunning so D won't be fun

Categories S-F traditionally are just S-Ending with different requirements

S: Truth From Dad, Bobby, Crow, 3rd Floor A: Truth from Shed, Bobby, Crow, 3rd Floor B: Any Truth, Bobby, 3rd Floor C: Any Truth, Bobby, 2nd Floor, D : Bobby, 2nd Floor E: Bobby, 3rd Floor F: Enter the elevator with no information G: All Friends Dead leave in car H: One friend dead leave in car

Glitched D : No friends die leave in car

Refer to my S-Ending Tutorial for the full route.

PSX/PC subtract entirely from the speedrun and I wouldn't recommend either one

PyramidK allow me for a moment to talk you out of doing PC

You will always be 7 minutes behind because there is an unskippable cutscene exclusive to PS3 and PC In addition to that you will also be victim of crashing all the time, I've had numerous runs crash at many different point in the game. There is also more lag somehow which can get pretty bad on certain sections of this game.

It is doable but infinitely better on XBOX360, But I do understand cost is an issue

Hi,

So I was looking into the run for this and I think I understand most of it, I've only been able to watch the marathon run so far but is saving using the menu save mid run to account for bad RNG allowed during the game?

I know plenty of games require single segment but didn't see anything listed in the rules here

Oddly enough the Elite Predator hasn't been much of an issue for me, holding right and spamming light attacks seems to dominate him every time. The others however I can't do for the life of me.

Would the barrels only be viable on full health?

Honestly for emulator I'd say either go the route of Haunting Ground and make it a misc category where it's entirely emu v emu, or go the Silent Hill 1 route and have all emulator runs hidden by default(meaning they don't really count) Emulation on a PS2 is not accurate enough to compare. More importantly games like Haunting Ground have a reason for needing an emulator category considering it's both hard to find and expensive. Clock Tower 3 is probably the easiest in the entire series to find and is normally like $15 + a capture card being $20-$40. This entire bundle is less than Haunting Ground pricewise.

Ultimately though this is a decision that should likely come down to Speedwerd, TheMixedHerb, DrWobblebottoms, and potentially Carci if he is still active in this game.
