Derek Taylor:
Finally the end segment. This chapter is just crazy. There is NO perfect 5-4 ever. It cant happen. But I tried to get as close to it as possible. The start goes pretty well. I need to take alot of damage to lower the difficulty for the Saddler fight. I wait until the last area to do that because mike seems to help more if I do better. Dont know why. But I need that left tower to be blown up for me. The first area is pretty fast and all goes well. There is alot of running for the next minute or so. I collect the flash grenade in the prison area then exit. Next I ditman with my last hand grenade and run to the doors. That makes the key card guy head to me. This is where I need to take alot of damage to get the fast Saddler battle. I kill the guy and collect the card. I get hit around that time by an axe guy. I heal and switch to striker to save some time. Then I take 3 full attacks and heal. Thats 4 and it usualy takes 5 hits to lower the difficulty enough. So I ditman with flash and try NOT to get hit during that time. Then I let the shield guys at the end hit me before I enter the door. So thats 5 hits now. There is a gren herb in the next room so I dont have to access my inventory to heal this time. I also think this merchant is faster than the one at the start of 6-1. He seems a little closer than the other. But by being inthe YELLOW HP it probably didn't save me anything :) I dont save because it saves about 7 or 8 seconds by not loading the game up. Also I am pretty consistent with my Saddler strat anyway. The trick with the Saddler batle is to remember that you have to wait for the bridge to rise anyway. So speed is not important here. Thats why I knife the eye. Then run far back to avoid damage from the blast. It means 2 less times in the inventory. In the other runs they equipped the handgun to shoot the eye. Thats 3 secs lost for accessing the inventory. Then taking damage from the blast means healing. Another 3 secs lost. Then they wait at the bridge for about 4 or 5 seconds until it rises. So basically I use the 5 seconds to stop myself going into the inventory those 2 times :) Then I still make the bridge in time. Then there is the long run to the JET-SKI and finish. Enjoy :)
So I hope you all enjoyed watching this run. It might be stupid random and very annoying but I still managed to enjoy making this run :) I have alot of other speedruns finished and hopefully I can show them to you guys too. Thank you and if you have any questions about the run or want to know anything about what I used during it then just message me on my youtube page.
