God of War: Ascension - Eyes of Apollo puzzle speed strategy v2
This is a faster strategy for the Eyes puzzle, saving maybe 10 seconds over the first iteration. The inspiration for this came from the chinese Ascension speedrun (whose runner's name I still don't know). However, that runner didn't realize that the glass cube cutscene can be skipped entirely with a bit different route.
Start by pushing the block off the glass cube. Leave a Kratos clone on top of the cube to prevent it from rising up. Climb upstairs. Leave a Kratos clone on the conveyor belt. Okay... now you can multitask while the Kratos clone is on its way, so go to the lever at the left and pull it, then set everything up properly. If you don't mess up, there is enough time to catch the falling glass cube and solve the puzzle.
This route allows you to skip the cutscene you normally get when the glass cube begins to rise, which by itself is quite good. But it also skips having to checkpoint retry like in v1 route and makes the route more efficient in other ways too.
After solving the puzzle, you can still jump on top of the glass cube to start the cutscene (and the fight) that you skipped previously.
