TAS Destiny of an Emperor NES in 81:09 by Acmlm

All that busy work just to get Zhu Ge Liang. I remember when I played this it was the first major strategist and a "big deal". This speed run makes it look silly to have to do all the steps to get him. :P

This game seems more like just going through the motions and less entertaining.

bossing a shit load of rebel forces around

4 - I'm guessing the reason you used An Sha on the 2nd round so often was to clear up the Rebel Forces first.

5 - I was gonna ask why you didn't pick up Guan Xing and Zhang Bao, but it looks like a time saver, since the other Generals have more soldiers and you can avoid level ups.

6 - I was gonna suggest the bug exploit trick for items, but it looks like you barely needed a Nu Long or Chi Tu Mas. They're pretty useless when manipulating An Sha luck.

7 - Glad you left the ending credits roll! :)

Nice little speed run. Here are my comments:

1 - I was gonna suggest killing Yuan Shu so you wouldn't have to fight him later at Ji Zhou, but you ended up taking him down in 1 hit anyways.

2 - The battle at Chang Sha was cutting it close! ^_^' But it looks like it paid off in terms of speed.

3 - I was also gonna suggest the chapter 8 enemies in ch 3 trick to level up faster, but it doesn't seem like it was really needed.

HOLY CRAP! 11293 rerecord count! Some people have WAY too much time on their hand! No offense to TASers out there, but seriously, the only skill I personally see from a TAS is the skill of patience and dedication! But hey, I guess we are all guilty of wasting time with these old games, heh? :)

Also, wouldn't it be funny if you made this TAS for HOURS and then later you found out the Iron Ore was missing due to the item disappearing bug, and then you had to start ALL OVER? LOL!

@mzmexe I have seen ones with alot more than that.

this game locks funny

[rinkuhero]

it seemed like there was one level up near the end that was skipped -- cheating, or is there some way to skip that one level up text and not all the others somehow?

Looks like a nice little Dragon Warrior variant.
