Ah, yes. That strategy is exactly how I handle things in real life. When I'm trying to get to work and get through the work day as quickly as possible, I just walk up and down the stairs in my apartment 32 times. Then I collapse from exhaustion and wake up having completed my day in record time.

20:15 "The Chaos fight is highly unpredictable". You might even say it is chaotic!

Imagine thinking that bending the games randomness to your will with perfectly executed inputs isn't super dope

This was a super good overview of FF1 speedrunning - as a multi-FF1 runner I really appreciated the survey!
There is one note I'd say and it's that GBA doesn't just do the 15 puzzle for cash - it's for the Megaxilirs that the party needs to survive the Chaos fight, which requires hitting that many first place times in a row.
That minor detail aside, I really enjoyed the video (and many of your others)! Keep up the good work!

Still laughing at "Oops All Fighters!" XD Great videos, the speedrun commentary is fantastic.

As an avid MSX gamer and collector, I just wanted to note that capturing footage from an MSX directly is actually... super easy. Almost all MSX systems have composite output standard, and some models have RGB out and sometimes even S-video out. MSX2s also aren't prohibitively expensive, though Final Fantasy very much is, with the game typically going for upwards of $400+. However, since it's a floppy disk game, it's actually pretty easy to just find a DSK file of it on the internet and just write it to a blank floppy, or use a flash rom cartridge (think Everdrive for MSX) if you really wanted to play it on actual hardware.
Was cool to see it mentioned, though, and I definitely appreciate the deep dive you've taken with this video -- I just figured I'd let you know for the future, in case the MSX should come up again in your travels. ;)
(Also, I wanted to take this chance to talk about the MSX, as it's an absolutely awesome system to collect for, even if it can be a bit expensive. It's so plug-and-play that it honestly might as well be a game console; as a retro computer, there are few options I can think of that are easier to get into than MSX, and the game library for it is vast, interesting, and continues to grow by leaps and bounds every year since its modern homebrew scene is still VERY active and constantly produces tons of great stuff!)

I guess I didn't realize RNG manipulation was such a hot topic. It's used in tons of speedruns. I guess it's subjective but I figure as long as it is a human doing the inputs 100% of the time it's still legit.

Gyreâs FF1 runs at charity events are some of the most chill, easy listening runs out there.

It is I, Yoru Ecki. I really enjoyed this video, and I think your editing is getting even better, not to mention how strangely hilarious it is that people can supposedly save the world by doing stepmaster routines in royal places on multiple occasions. I do think that if anything, the fact you cover both the MSX2 and WonderSwan Color releases is amazing. Not many do that!
And now, with that in mind, Dan is canonically the strongest Final Fantasy protagonist in the franchise, seeing as he is able to save the universe even when bonked unconscious. Even I've studied his ways. Just because one is at the bottom doesn't mean you can't lift the top from under you.

The only trick you need to know about FF1 is you cross class your fighter into a fighter. Then your double fighter will be able to wield the sword-chucks!

A deep dive into FF1 step routing and rng manipulation for NES would be interesting. Great video btw.

The stack explanation at the two minute mark also explains how the spell WARP works. It makes the game think you went backward on the most recent screen transition. I think they caught it in testing by locking it to the wizards since you could use it to break the Citadel of Trials and the ice cavern. It's a common thing in the randomizer.

I love how there are so many different versions and they all have their own huge bugs.

Is "documentary about the specifics of speed running with synthwave music in the background" just a genre now? I really hope so. I like it. Maybe we could call the genre Salt-likes.

âWhy are you guys pushing the game to its limit? Just stop optimizing, youâre taking all the fun out of the game.â -People who missed the point of speed running and what makes it fun.

"This is cheating".
You seem to forget that cheating is participating in a competition and then using unfair tactics to gain an advantage.
But guess what? It's only unfair if the rules don't allow it. Speedrunning is literally built on the very idea that you can make competition out of everything and that's beautiful.
Yes, it may not be the kind of competition you enjoy; but guess what! There are categories for OTHER styles of play. It's not "cheating" just because you wouldn't play like that.
Don't get me wrong, I would never use glitches and RNG manip because thats not how I enjoy a game. But you know whats interesting? Hearing stories about people who DON'T play games like I do. A world I'd never discover.
And guess what, rules are constantly changing and people are constantly having to come together to say "this is fair and this is unfair"
This even happened with the high jump with the invention of the Fosbury Flop. No one did it before then someone did and they had to decide whether to allow it. Do you now hate the high jump?
Futurama has a scene where they confirm that all athletes are medically required to be on steroids. It was a great joke that played on your expectations of what we believe fairness to be. Obviously it was joking, but the message is the same.
As long as everyone is on a level playing field, then it doesn't matter what the field is. And if you don't like the field, then fuck off and find another one.

I love how about 20 minutes in you used Lufia 2 music. I didn't expect that, and it was really nostalgic, even though it was only for like one minute.

I've got the Windows Mobile version! It was, in fact, the only reason I kept my phone dual-booting instead of hacking Android onto it back in the day. Once I beat it (a few minutes at a time on the bus, so it took a while) I wiped Windows off and just ran Android exclusively.

My favorite FF1 speedrun is the earlier variant of the original Famicom, where instead of climbing stairs repeatedly to warp to credits they climb the stairs until one of the castle guards turns into Chaos, who runs away from the party's thief to secure victory for the heroes.

Edit: Tracks updated in description! Also. the Japanese letters were put into google translate and thatâs why theyâre so wonky in the video. Theyâll be handled differently in future videos for accuracy Thanks for watching!
