Eternal Darkness - Any% No CS Speedrun in 1:26:56
16I skipped 1:28:XX and 1:27:XX. I would call this the first really good run using Roberto Skip 2.0. I'm super happy getting a record just a few days before running this category at AGDQ.
If you're curious about the main trick used on this category (Roberto Skip) here's an explanation:
"The first part of the setup is on Anthony. We use a B-prompt storage and a Free enchant to store the last examine prompt of the Enchant Scroll. After that, we need to reach the next Alex segment avoiding every simple examine prompt, then we make a savefile on Alex and save it for the second part of the skip.
The second part is after Paul. Right after opening the piano, we need to setup for a cutscene restore on the Roberto page. To do this, we need to be able to do a Recovery explosion and enchant an item at the same time we grab the page, this can be done with some precise Free Dispels, after this we have an insta-restore close to the piano. The summon Trapper then is to store the examine on the painting, then the enchant item is to advance the examine one more step.
After this we setup Alex's position using the dining table, an ESS turn (yes, it works just like oot) and 2 neutral attacks. Now it's time to use the savefile after Anthony, we load it and watch a cutscene to set the restore point to the Tome room, which will cause a warp with the piano insta-restore.
The last step is loading the last savefile, do an overhead attack and then press B on an specific frame in order to open the examine on the tome room, this will trigger the Get Item Manipulation we set up previously in Anthony and, if everything lined up perfectly, will give us Peter's page."
"No CS" is short for "No Cutscene Storage". Cutscene Storage is a very powerful glitch that changes Any% completely, so we decided to make a different category that allows it. Here's my pb for Any% CS if you're interested: https://youtu.be/2sK6spl2A08 , And here's a TAS if you want to see how broken that category is: https://youtu.be/PjPPM2Ertlw
