Max score of 7325 and all Easter eggs (hopefully)!
I found it weird that I couldn't reload during target practice in the beginning (00:13:06), but I learned later (at the tournament) that I needed to click on my hand to reload.
A dialogue part went by too fast as I accidentally clicked the mouse at 01:25:33. If you don't care to pause or rewind, it said "But that's--". It still last long enough to be read for a lot of people I guess, but the speed I chose for the dialogues were the time it took for me to read it + a few extra seconds, as some people might be slow readers.
All the paths at 03:38:09, except Tuck's, leads to fail (04:22:24).
Runs really slow in some places, and too fast in others. A couple of places like the market and the Will-o-th'Wisps place was sped up during edit, 'cause those went like 3-5 times slower.
At 03:28:30 there were broken graphics this time around for some reason. I tried saving, restarting the game and load (not save states) and the problem remained.
I didn't get the best ending. One would think getting MAX score would lead to the best ending. I gave poor people gold, bought Marian a bunch of stuff, even saved her and other people. I felt like replaying the whole game and use a different walkthrough and hope for the best ending again (just so I could show it as an alt ending), but I did that in my old longplay of this game (only scored 6000 or something) and didn't get the best ending that time either. So, I decided it's not worth doing it all again (would be much faster this time though) as there is a chance I don't get the best ending again. It can be seen on YouTube anyway as others have recorded it. If one wasn't recorded, I would have replayed the game til I got it.
Depending on how well the player performs, there are four possible endings. Robin Hood can be hanged for his crimes, given a pardon but no other reward, pardoned and offered a job in the king's service (but denied Maid Marian's hand), or he can be granted a noble title and married to Maid Marian.
My main goal was to get max score anyway.
00:00:00 - Intro
00:07:10 - Game begins
04:22:06 - Death happens easily in this game, a lot of them are similar to others (a rock on the head, a hit from a staff), so I included one of each - shot, burned, rock (usually gray, but this one might supposed to be something else, so included this one instead), staff hit, sword hit, and just for the heck of it - a woman dying. Usually when/after you die, your team has something to say, so included one of those examples. There was one more death I wanted to include, it's Robin being hanged, but that would require me to replay the game and do badly to get that ending, so I couldn't be bothered (might be a quicker way somewhere, like being captured and hung as the game over death).
Some of the Easter eggs and other interesting/funny things:
00:10:55 - Forest pixie
00:20:08 - Talking to the sheep
00:37:26 - Talking to dog and duck
00:58:52 - Gays? / 00:59:53 - Larry
01:03:44 - Monty Python
02:13:18 - Attacking the tree. Showed the save/load feature as well while I was at it (and game over thingy)
02:27:07 - Talking to the mule / 02:27:55 - Former programmer for Sierra, and more.
02:59:26 - A fly on the screen!
