Secret of Evermore - (10/14) 100% speedrun in 2:04

This is a tool-assisted speedrun of Secret of Evermore, that aims for 100% completion in order to show everything the game has to offer, while still beating it as fast as possible. It also shows alot of speed tricks and rare glitches I discovered between 1995 and 1997 that allowed to shorten the completion time (which is only 2 hours and 4 minutes) even more - most noticeably the Atlas-glitch.

Conditions that had to be met for this 100% run:
- getting at least 1 of every item, ingredient, armor, etc.
- getting all alchemy formulas / spells
- defeating all bosses
- showing every sidequest / storyline

----------

Part 10:
Arriving at Ebon Keep through the prison. After finding out the true intentions of the evil queen, heading back to Ivor Tower through the Sky Tower to stop her. After finishing business, returning back to Ebon Keep.

Bosses defeated:
- Verminator
- Sterling
- Mungola

How did you/he figure out that odd way through the dragon-tower?!?! oO Or is that a mistake that you did fall in that trap door?

[rizer912]

[trollsnot]

You made that rat guy look like a rabite. I was stuck on him for ages :(

[scottimus432]

So if that's Cecil than the guy with the red beard must be Cid, right?

[dumbasshc]

I´ve just realised that he is cecil from FF4...That´s awesome..

[NathanWubs]

No, it is an improper emulations setup that causes this.

[eggory]

This game has the most beautiful soundtrack of any game. Too bad the bugs this guy is abusing or something is screwing it up a bit

[banifaire]

No... he told the blacksmith is actually Cecil from Final Fantasy IV (or Final Fantasy II if you're American)
