Jak No LTS - Analysis Study [ The Little Things That Matter]
:: Overview ::
I went over all of the tips MikeGamePro gave me to help me push for the 58:XX, but I also added some other insights I have learned along the way to get to where I am now.
Thanks to all of the Jak runners who have contributed to my knowledge base. I hope that this video is a useful resource for people and an eye-opener on some of the aspects of Jak speedrunning that isn't mentioned too often.
For the levels that were skipped, please use the resources below as they will fill in most gaps. When it comes to the other areas of levels I skipped, refer to other PBs to analyze movement and do comparisons. Speedrunning is a lot of skills combined and one of them is learning to use the resources available to you. :)
Also, stay tuned for future tutorials from me :)

:: About Me ::
I am an autistic person, gamer, and speedrunner that has a passion for learning all sorts of things about myself, others, and the world around me. I understand that this is a continuous process that I will take part in for the rest of my life. I strive to get better at all that I do and ask as many questions as possible. I want to share this process with others by making content and I hope that you stick around! I would love to have you. Your perspective has value here :).
