This is a much better run of my first challenge run of 4 knights taking on the world. It could have been better if my eye grind went well but that's the fun of the game.

Ah yes, FF1 NES' easy mode. Fun stuff.

Changing up which character attacked the Kyzoku probably actually helped due to how the RNG table advances.

Great run, great routing, love the commentary as well. I was wondering if it might be helpful at the certain times when you had dead characters and really wanted one of your characters not to get hit, you could stick a dead character in position 2 to further drop the odds of 3/4 of getting targeted. I know you have to spend the extra couple seconds each time to put the dead one up to 2nd, but it could reduce your risk of reset.

I'm glad that you enjoyed the run. I don't feel like that is worth it in the long run. The odds of being targeted will hardly change. the second guy would go from about a 33% chance to be hit to a 28%. The 5ish% change is not worth losing multiple seconds after every fight.

@@shanezell oh okay, I thought the change was more significant.

I wonder how much longer this would have taken without step routing? Especially the marsh grind, that would have taken at least twice as long. Are there any notes on how to manipulate all those encounters? I'd like to try this run at some point.

So the NES doesn't have random encounters, once you know where battles are going to be you can't just forget. Could I walk through the game is a worse way to make the game take longer? Sure I could but I don't see why I would want to do that. The idea is to go fast.

I'm pretty sure when I first replied that second part wasn't there... And no I don't have any notes for this route I did. But there are some guides here www.speedrun.com/final_fantasy_nes/guides

Are you using an emulator, and if so which one?

@shanezell Жыл бұрын

"fceux" is the only NES emulator that actually emulates the game properly. That is the one that I use and every TASer uses.

@@Sciffymcgoo splits are mostly just there to show progression and how good the time is compared to past attempts. Most of the time runners have them spaced out over the run.

Fighters are so unbalanced. My go to was 2Fighters, Red Mage and White Mage.

@shanezell 6 ай бұрын

Fighters and Knights are just required to have a good party.

Two fighters, two red mages. White mage is good early game, but has diminishing returns as the game progresses.

That's the issue with character names in FF1; you have to shuffle your party as their HP gain isn't a set thing. I've had a few nonsense names because of that :(
