Skyward Sword: Any% Test Speed Run - Segment 1

[snowyarticuno]

sweet I've been curious how quickly this game can be done

Say, does Hero Mode also get rid of stamina fruits here and there? I could have sworn there was one right next to the front gate of the academy

[LlamasInYourCloset]

@snowyarticuno for some reason that stamina fruit isn't there at the beginning of the game. later it is.

keep rollin' rollin' rollin' rollin'...

[KoopaKing321]

good start man cant wait to watch the rest

[2mmz]

how do you skip cut-scene?

[MrSpirittracks]

@2mmz Hero mode



[2mmz]

@MrSpirittracks ohhh, ok

[homestar52]

@ParaxZero By the way, your batteries are low in your Wii Remote.

[homestar52]

The uploader is good at this. When he/she dashes, they go to the VERY last part until they stop running. That takes some skill.

[homestar52]

What does Any% mean? I've been trying to figure that out... I could've used Google...

[ParaxZero]

it's referring to how many items i pick up, any% just means finish the game with any number of items (compared to 100% or low%)

[homestar52]

@ParaxZero Ok, but why do people not write/type any% or low% sometimes?Meaning, some people don't put any% or low% in the title or anywhere.

[Amatiramisu]

@homestar52

Some people are just lazy and do not put the % info in. In general, when that happens, you should assume you're watching an any% run. 100% and low% are usually special.

Also, everyone knows about Ocarina of Time :P

[homestar52]

@Amatiramisu Ok then. Not EVERYBODY knows about OoT.......

[Amatiramisu]

@homestar52

Oh my god, I feel really stupid, I totally spaced on my answer last time. I was dumb and tired and dont know what i was thinking. low% counts based on collecting as few items as possible, any% doesnt matter the number. sorry for misinforming you.

[ParaxZero]

haha, I read your comment yesterday and I was like "what"

[homestar52]

@ParaxZero Wait, which comment? The comment about dashing? Or the comment about the question mark? Or another one?... And can you PLEASE put @homestar52 in the beginning of your comments if you're replying to me??!! Or you can just click the reply button...

[homestar52]

@Amatiramisu Yeah, I got that. You basically said the same thing.....

[homestar52]

@ParaxZero There was supposed to be a space after the question mark in my other reply...... I like being proper....

[Amatiramisu]

@homestar52

To expand slightly on the uploader's answer, 100% is obviously self-explanatory, but the difference between low% and any% is that any%'s only requirement is that you beat the game, while low% requires you to complete a minimum amount of tasks.

If my memory is correct, an ocarina of time low%, for example, would have you complete all the dungeons and collect their key items, while an any% would see only the spirit and shadow temples complete.

[homestar52]

@Amatiramisu Ohhh.... Thanks for telling me. How'd you know I knew about Ocarina of Time???.....

[aleckermit]

The flight practice needed more slamming into rocks for irony, otherwise great.

[Paraxade0]

I tried that briefly but kept running into invisible walls where all the rocks were.

[MilesSMB]

Why did you slow down at 5:45? That cost you some time. :\

[Tamiss]

@MilesSMB Cause he failed there with stamina on his previous run on this segment :D

[aleckermit]

@MilesSMB

Hanging uses tamina. He reserved it perfectly.
