Description:
First sub 20 minute run for Ultimate Doom on Ultra-Violence!
I can't believe it's been nearly 1.5 years since I did the 20m06s and just left it there. Was about time I bothered to finish this. Saving/loading is allowed for Real-Time Attack (RTA), though I never died so loading wasn't necessary, thus I get a single segment deathless run as well which is nice. In-Game Time (IGT) is not used since it's not possible to record all 4 episodes in a single demo.
The reason why it's taken so long for me to do this is because it's a rather unforgiving run with Episode 4 at the end so it's not very fun. I've seen other games with an episode format do them out of order, but that just ain't the right way to do it imo. It all comes down to the cyberdemon at the end of E4M6 if you haven't already lost too much time on E4M1 and E4M2, maybe if you have a good time you get a second chance, but usually the exact same thing happens and you die a few times and get 20:0X at the end.
Episode 1: Slow start, but went pretty ok otherwise. Lost a few seconds on E1M5, but that's to be expected.
Episode 2: Failed the jump on E2M2, it's pretty easy so that's a bit disappointing. Had a good E2M6 with the void glide and a decent switch press to make up for it. First try rocket jump on E2M7 too.
Episode 3: This episode is quite easy, went ok. I grab some extra cells on E3M6 so that I can clear out the lost souls on E3M7 before the exit jump, because it frequently fails because of lost souls.
Episode 4: Took more damage than I would have liked before getting to the rocket launcher on E4M1, but then I took no damage at all so it went really well. E4M2 is always very scary, but nothing went wrong. Cyberdemon didn't kill me immediately on E4M6 so that's as good as it gets. I wanted to load the quicksave just before the rocket jump on E4M8, but I went with it and I'm glad I did. Was close at the end there.
Thanks for watching!
