@@OneShortEye when King's Quest 2 and 4 WR history vids. You have every other game in the series except for those 2, and funnily enough, your videos were my main source of knowledge on KQ in general.

@OneShortEye Год назад

@@MDLuffy1234YT Good question. The short answer is, there are other stories in adventure game speedrunning that I find more interesting for the moment, so I don't know when I'll get to those two. KQ2 has roughly the same story as KQ1. First, people ran it without zips, then ChuckGrody and Lumophile routed in zips. There's lots of RNG. Then SantaClaus (of KQ3 fame) came in, optimized the zips, executed better, and brought the time down a lot. That's basically it. KQ4 is a great game, and the top runners are very skilled. And there are a handful of neat optimizations, but not a lot. Most of the history would just be: "they did it again, but a little faster." I'm currently finishing up a Monkey Island 2 video. There's a ton of neat history, with many twists and turns. Next up after that is Gabriel Knight 20th Anniversary Edition, which uses one glitch with hilarious results.

@Just.Kidding 10 месяцев назад

I mean it would max out at what, 8 frames? Consecutive frames of an identical input will register as a held key unless broken up by a different or blank input. So, 1. ESC, 2. Enter, 3. Nothing, 4. Enter, 5. Nothing, 6. Enter, 7. F3, 8. Enter would be the minimum possible number of frames unless new discoveries are made.

This went from an exciting new OneShortEye documentary into an thought provoking debate on the ethics of cheating and when it consumes the whole purpose of the speedrunning sport. Then the feeling creeps up that - after 35 years - this is the exciting return of _"CURRENT INSIDE COPY"_ with a new Space Quest expose, but that delight rapidly descends to a *bleeding HP Lovecraft psychological breakdown ambush from the space/time between 8 Bit!* That's an impressive 14 minutes my good man, And you know the perfect Sierra music and clips to build whatever mood you want. Props to RetroTKS also. This channel is a unique delight!
