killamch89 Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Speedrunners push games to their limits with glitches, optimized routes, and frame-perfect inputs. Have you picked up useful tricks from runs of Super Mario 64, Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, or newer titles like Metroid Dread? How have these strategies influenced your casual play - skipping cutscenes, sequence breaks, or tool-assisted tactics? Do you think learning speedrun techniques deepens your appreciation for game design, or does it spoil the intended experience? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
