Full game playthrough (100% + true end):
Part 2 - A Gift from a fellow Crow
Death's Door is a game about a crow who can't fly (or swim).
...
Anyway... at some point I began to wonder... could a melee build actually be viable for an Umbrella run?
Long story short... it can. =) Things start off kind of slow, but the more you upgrade your melee, the smoother things will go!
...
BTW, this kind of ended up as a "not really a speedrun, but definitely faster than I'd normally go" playthrough... so if you've never played/watched the game, do be aware that I'll be skimming most of the dialog and skipping a lot of the optional things (like Logbooks) not required for a 100% run. ^^
Anyway, I had a lot of fun playing through the game again, so... hope you enjoy!
0:00 (11.1%) Hall of Doors
0:02 Ceramic Manor (1 Shrine, 1 shiny, 7 seeds, 6 pots, 3 energy, 3 keys)
0:17 Seed (9/50)
0:22 Pot (6/50)
1:15 Seed (10/50)
1:19 (key)
2:04 Pot (7/50)
2:52 (combat note: using stronger attacks to hit projectiles back will do more damage to the enemy!)
- I don't think harder-hit projectiles look any different... but there is a spot in Overgrown Ruins where the results are easier to see, so when we get there, I'll demonstrate it then!
3:19 (soul freed (1/4))
3:50 (used key)

12:33 (gameplay note: this is a shortcut to/from the room with the Door)
12:39 Seed (14/50)
12:43 (puzzle note: I think(?) this fallen chandelier is supposed to be a hint that the other chandelier can be knocked down)
- I suspect the reason why a lot of players (including me) had trouble figuring out how to get the item on the chandelier is because it requires a game mechanic (using your weapon to cut a rope) that isn't used at any point anywhere else in the entire game. =/
- IMO the previously-fallen chandelier being a hint probably would've been a bit clearer if that chandelier's severed rope were visible in the area above, but... ^^

30:12 Shiny Thing 8 (6/24): Rusty Garden Trowel
30:21 (hint system note: the Trowel is the hint system for finding seeds, but you won't be able to use it until much later (it only works at night))
