Speed is everything!

I have beated the Gothic 2 The Night of the Raven run.
My time is 1:10:25.
But I used bugs and TheWonderer (The creator of the other run) did not used bugs.
So it is another class of a speedrun.

I have no solution, but i admire the problem.

Wow, that would be an improvement of ~40 minutes to the time of 1h 50m of TheWonderer. Too bad you waste a lot of the interest to this run by not mentioning this or which bugs you used and which parts you improved from the run of Wonderer.

Since it's a Gothic run, and a pretty fast one as it seems, i'll watch it. But it would be really great if you could point out your improvements and bug usage.

Hmm, the run seems not so bad, but also not really impressing, because besides from the shortcuts, that are possible with the going-through-closed-doors/walls-bug, you copied most of the actions from my run with just a few differences (more own ideas would have been appreciated), you even copied things that would not have been necessary in your case (like talking to Cavalorn, what is useless when you don't need to join the ring of water).

The trip with the dragonsnapper at the end is funny, but i don't think it really saves time, and it violates the game-borders.
By the way, before entering the valley of mines when you pass the first orc, you got hit by his weapon without losing health, are you sure you had no god-mode on here? Wink

@sorcerer: my time was ~1h38min, and the improvement is mostly the using of going through closed doors/walls (leaving out the quests/actions that would be necessary to get in properly), what i intentionally avoided in my run (although i knew it would save time), so like zero said, it's a different category of speedrun.
Anyway, a bugusing-run can surely be done in less than an hour..

Yes, first i wanted to copy the run just for fun. but then I found new tricks and shortcuts and used them.

No of course I haven't used a god mode.
