Tales of Symphonia NG+ Speed Run in 7:22:24 - Part 1 of 4 *READ DESCRIPTION*

*PLEASE READ THE VIDEO DESCRIPTION*
*SPOILERS WARNING*
*JTV LIVE STREAM: http://www.justin.tv/omegaevolution

Gonna take a saying from dagoldenclip2 and tell Sony Vegas and Youtube both to "feast on a million dicks".

The footage is taken from my live stream cause both Sony Vegas and YT didn't want the full video to be up in 1 segment, so this will have to do since I'm tired of re-rendering this and failing the upload. So in advance apologize if the quality is rather bad.

Anyway, this is a Single Segment (Beat the game in 1 sitting), Single Player, New Game+ (Grade Shop Bonuses) Speed Run of Tales of Symphonia, played on the Nintendo Game Cube.

Time Starts: at the Grade Shop Screen
Time Ends: when The Last Form of the Final Boss is defeated.

Run ain't perfect, there is a lot of brain fart moments (Renegade Base 1, Asgard, Temple of Earth, Temple of Lighting, etc), holy bottle trolling moments (running out right in front of a monster) and bosses that trolled me (Sheena 2 and Efreet comes to mind), but I'm happy with it cause I got the goal I wanted which was sub 7:30:00.

Its done in the lowest Difficulty setting to save time on battles (since it lowers the HP of the enemies) and skip all the dialogue/scenes that the game allows to skip (except for 1 piece of dialogue Kratos says against Kvar which I didn't skip on porpuse :P), the rest of the dialogues/skits/scenes that aren't skipped is because the game didn't let me skip them (Kratos' introduction for example... for some reason you can't skip it lol).

I tried to not waste much time on shops getting equipment, so most of the run I have very basic armor and mostly focused on weapons since they don't requiere much scrolling and they matter in killing bosses faster.

I think that covers most of it. Getting lower than this is definitely possible since, as I said, this run ain't perfect.

PS: oh forgot to mention this was done while racing this game against another user. TheOriginalFanatic:

Dunno if he will upload his take on this someday or not, thats up to him. (his is 10 minutes slower than me though so probably won't upload it)

Enjoy!

Nice video(s). I suppose it would be faster if we could skip scenes, but whatever.

And yeah, the quality IS pretty good.
