God of War: Ascension NG+ any% RTA in 2:25:13 (part 2)
37This is a God of War: Ascension speedrun in the category New Game+ any%, done in one sitting, played by me (AKheon).
If I had to give a numerical value, I'd say I'm about 78% happy with this run. I get stuck on some skips as usual, but in general the good parts outweigh the bad.
I split the run into three parts to make uploading easier. This part contains Chapters 9 to 20, and the splits for it are...
Temple of Delphi (55:26)
Castor & Pollux (57:24)
Amulet (1:04:14)
The Grotto (1:12:31)
Prison (1:15:56)
Delos (1:22:37)
Rope (1:27:44)
The Gauntlet (1:31:21)

Chapter 9:
- I break out of the Manticore pre-fight cutscene because it looks nice and doesn't waste time to do.
Chapter 10 - 12:
- Slight sloppiness, but nothing to really complain about. Chapter 11 is skipped as per usual.
Chapter 13:
- I also break out of the Aletheia cutscene. A slight speed / entertainment trade-off.
- I get the long version of Shield Run at the Amulet tutorial fight skip, which is nice.
Chapter 14:
- The Cistern is one of the most difficult chapters in the game, and as expected, I fail a lot here. Another big time loss.
Chapter 16:
- The Cerberus fight. The bugmen take priority over Cerberus since there are so many small waves of them. Getting them all to spawn is what takes the longest here.
Chapter 17:
- Nice, got the new Martyr's Chamber skip. Although things looked bad at first.
Chapter 18:
- For some reason the Juggernaut fight skip is kind of tricky and I often have problems in it.
- I used a new waiting and retry tactic at the end of the chapter to avoid a deadly game breaking glitch.
Chapter 19:
- Failed in one of the jumps, kind of annoying.
- Skipped a part of the autoscroller and the tentacle cutscene. This seems to be a consistent trick.
- Have to wait in the menu before bursting in through the wall at one point or else the game hasn't loaded the next area and Kratos dies.
Chapter 20:
- Fight went pretty well. You don't have to switch to Javelin if you use Soul Rage.
