We should talk about this game. Why is it so slept on for speedrunning? Anyways I edited this post a lot. It was about a no damage speedrun but i had to change this post because i realize that it is impossible to do a no damage speedrun. Well it is possible but not for me at least or even the new world record holder Arbliterator cause he told me today when he was playing Tooie and it made me realize.

So I don't want this thread to go to waste and there seems to be no other Conker Discussion thread so I thought i'd turn this into one! Anyone got anything they wanna say about the game? I speedrun it myself and can tell you a good bit of info on it if you want. This game is seriously so awesome! I don't know why there arent many conker runners!

I don't think there's enough charact

You have to understand that this game is just not popular.
People tend to be more shy of emulator, because N64 emulators just don't emulate well.
Then there's the other option where you buy the cart, but it's been getting more and more expensive.

Also, could we avoid emulator talk on SDA? Thank you.

All the things

There's nothing inherently wrong with emulator talk. Just don't start posting links to ROM sites or the like.

Anyways, I think most people won't really go for a no-damage run unless it was inherently faster to do so. "No Damage" is just an extra arbitrary caveat to the standard any% or 100% categories. Challenge runs are fine, but if there's no defining difference to the run (what does this change about the run other than a longer route?) you're probably not going to get a lot of attention to it.

I don't think this will be getting any attention honestly. It's gona be so difficult to do no one will be able to do it. But I'm going to try to. I want to make a legendary urn. Well legendary to me at least. The worst part is that the War and Heist chapters at the end of the game because you can just randomly get hit by gunshots so I need to make consistent strats where Conker doesn't take damage. All runs are 100% for this game to because you can only skip one money stack and so we just grab it anyways. This will definitely be a challenge run and the guidelines are basically beat the game any way you can without taking any hits of damage anywhere, which is definitely possible just hard.

It's not that No Damage speedruns aren't insanely skillful, entertaining and so on, just that they don't get much attention BECAUSE they're so hard and so binary (either you have a completed run or no one cares). Watching No Damage speedrun attempts in OoT was amazing back when SVA was trying to get a full run without ever having to load a save due to taking damage. I think Kryssstal has gone for ALttP no damage speedruns as well, I'd love to watch that sometime.

I can't even stream anyways sadly Sad

It would be a youtube video probably. I don't even know if I have the abilities for it but i was working on it today. I got up to the first hay bot fight and got hit of course haha that part makes sooo many people rage. I will have to work on parts individually and make up ways I can avoid getting hit. Anyways thanks for even giving my thread a look guys Smiley
