Lost Odyssey SS Speedrun in 8:04:35! (With commentary)
http://www.twitch.tv/potatohandle
My gaming project over the past few months has been routing a Lost Odyssey SS speedrun, and I've finally got a run worth showing!
This run started out as a race between myself eekcast and redbuddha; from new game until the end of disc 3, so there may be several references to that in the commentary, I decided to continue and finish the game after the race though.
Really wanted to break 8 hours, but a few silly mistakes on disc 4 prolly cost me. Still this run was much better than my last and includes using the risky but faster Luminous strategy.
Still far from perfect, but it's starting to get pretty tight now.

Technical notes about the "Single Segment" category: Saving is not allowed in SS runs, but I make two saves in this run. (I'm not submitting this, but I am aiming at the SS category if I ever do.)
- The first is because my disc 4 is ...funny. It works, and I can use it, but it never works during disc transitions. It's copied to my hard-drive, so I don't know what it's on about, but that's just how it rolls. But to get around it, I save at the disc change and reload and it works fine (At the loss of about a minute or two though).
- I also save just before the final bosses, this is merely so I can practice these bosses later with my current equipment, and also so I can finish the run for the twitch viewers if something goes wrong.
