Ff12 is one of my childhood games and alltime favorite, i played it like 4 5 times completly, wanted to play it again, saw ur speedrun, good job boy, now its like i played it again, just faster😂
Wow, even 3 minutes in I can really respect your character movement in x4 speed, especially in between the shops in rabanstre vaan loves to run into walls when I play xD
It's a really bad habit of mine. Tried to be less like that ever since this PB. The only reason why I, atm feel like I'd want to improve this to have less negativity in my commentary xD
at 14:37 into the run, I'm still in the opening graphics... and ur at the palace lol, and if I was skipping graphics and trying to just get through the game fast (ish) then i'd be in giza plains lol.
Im 3 years late but can anyone explain the speedrun categories to me? This is a 2 hr any % but the other any %s are like... 5-7 hours long? Is there a banned glitch or something? What am I missing? Ty for response.
Hi there! Yeah, It can get a bit confusing. So, there are 3 different releases of FFXII which give them their own Boards. Original on PS2, IZJS which only released in Japan and TZA. The 5-7h category is most likely the Original PS2 run. Since the remaster is drastically differrent from both the Original and IZJS, tza has its own leaderboard. I personally like both versions, but enjoy the PS2 versions more, since you have more freedom with the licenseboard. As to why the time difference: There are multiple factors as to why the time is so much faster. Most of those timesaves can also be applied for IZJS: - faster load times (only TZA) - Speed up function, makes the game up to "4x" faster (this is faster than the izjs speedup) - rebalancing of enemy stats - Introduction to Invisible weapons such as Seitengrat (Seitengrat is mega OP with 224 atk power and a 25% crit chance, and no licenses is needed to equip it too). That around covers the biggest timesaves for the run compared to Ps2. If you have anymore questions, don't hesitate to ask :)
You don't have to feel weird, thats just speedrunning for you! It's normal for runners to finnish a game when they speedrun in a fraction of time that it took them to beat it for the first time casualy. Heck, my first every playthrough of FFXII back on the Ps2 was over 200 hours and on said save I've never 100%ed the game. Enjoy your casual playthroughs and get curious about the speedrun(s) after, thats how I got about it :)
@@BlueHarvey man.. I'm so lazy or bored that it's takes the whole day for me to get to the next stage or place of the story, I mean it's enjoyable but guess I have some personal issues lmao
Original one? You mean speedrun the Original PS2 version? if thats the case, I've already ran the PS2 version. Dunno when I'll o PS2 again, there are a lot of interesting games coming out soonish which have my interest for running the game.
Thanks for the answer but what the hell were the designers thinking xD, how are you supposed to know that, why would you want to spawn a specific enemy in your game only when a character has 10% health ?
@@louismartin7608 the monster is like a scare/execution thing. it only appears once unless you bug the game by leaving the zone before it despawns. Typically the mob would spawn when you're low on health and running away from a different zone, and make you scared, but it's been manipulated into an early game power levelling and gil farm mechanic lol.
Hi, and thank you for your question. I habe to tell you I've already done a video like that. If you go through my video uploads, you will be able to see that I've already uploaded a tutorial/explanation on how to get it. Hope this helps :) (Edit) Heres the Link to the video. I only just now learned that you can copy paste links on mobile too xD th-cam.com/video/aXuVLJ6iH-c/w-d-xo.html
@@reubendeeley3830 In both versions its possible to skip the first Demon Wall. But killing the first Demon Wall yields benefits instead of running away. Thats why we kill it.
@@cantaloupeme I hate to answer it with this but, "Yes, but actually no". There is a RNG Tool avaialble to get the Seitengrat on PC, but it does read the games memory to see which RNG Position you are on (reading the games memory directly via a third party programm is not allowed for runs) whereas for the PS4 version, you can use the Cure values to see where you are at atm. I've made a video about it on my second channel, you can watch it here: th-cam.com/video/LoDkZm7iwJs/w-d-xo.html Edit: I want to add that, as of right now, it is not possible to do the manip without the Memory reading RNG tool. If you just want to get Seitengrats for casuals, the RNG tool shown in the video I posted above works just fine. Hope this helps :)
@@BlueHarvey for sure I don’t run FF12. (Enjoyed it too much casually and I like my speed runs around an 60-90 minutes usually). I enjoyed 12 years ago. TZA was a blast as well.
Its The Ps4 Version which makes it faster. There is a way to get Seitengrat on PC but its so inconsistent that its not worth trying. Whilst the Ps4/5 version has a consistent way of getting Seitengrat. Seitengrat speeds up the game by A TON!
This is for extra exp. If Larsa stays alive each character gets 1/4th of exp. If I rid of him, everyone gets 1/3rd of the exp. In short, you get more exp.
What!!! You know what speed running is? They literally do the same thing over and over and over trying to get a perfect run any little mistakes mean you have to do it agine and they do those shit over and over and over, you have no understanding what they doing lol

This game looked so good for the era it came out. One of the best looking games on ps2.
It does look amazing. But keep in mind that this here is the remaster.
THE best looking ps2 game
@@niveyoga3242 It does look amazing yeah!
Final Fantasy has always had cutting edge graphics for the console it's on, well since PS1 era anyways
@@joelabraham6834agreed. FFXV has breathtaking beautiful graphics specially its atmosphere and environments

I like the part where Balthier pretty much tells Vaan that Jules can't be trusted, then gives Jules the chops.
😂😂
Probably to prove the point to Vaan lol
@@shocktriple When they left bur omisace he's all like "TO THE CAPITOL!" "We go on foot." Then at phon he's like "Why the capitol?"
remarkable, I played through and played 40 hours and my mans does It in just over 2, WILD.
It problaby took him a lot more than 40 hrs to be able to beat it in 2.
Wow, even 3 minutes in I can really respect your character movement in x4 speed, especially in between the shops in rabanstre vaan loves to run into walls when I play xD
It's really difficult toncontrol him at 4x Speed. It took many many hours of playing to improve my movement!
@@BlueHarvey Gotta work on those keyboard skills now.
Bro, you are a LEGEND in my book ❤️🔥
The legend does it again! Kudos!
It's almost a requirement for every game that the WR must have the runner complaining about how awful their luck is, and how dead the run is.
It's a really bad habit of mine. Tried to be less like that ever since this PB. The only reason why I, atm feel like I'd want to improve this to have less negativity in my commentary xD

Gotta make some lofi music from this one as well! Great video!
I swear I wasn't trying to self advertise xD

what a legend
thank you!

Honestly seeing this makes me feel weird about how much it took me to finish the game

Speedrun on this game? I can't imagine the pain
Yeah xD

@@Omega-jg4oq It do be like that sometimes.
Giga chad
can you do the original one? anyways gg though
Original one? You mean speedrun the Original PS2 version?
if thats the case, I've already ran the PS2 version. Dunno when I'll o PS2 again, there are a lot of interesting games coming out soonish which have my interest for running the game.
Why is that Dustia monster appearing? Never saw it in my playthrough 11:22
It only spawns in that area and the spawn condition is for a characters HP to be below 10% of their max HP. Hope this helps :)
Thanks for the answer but what the hell were the designers thinking xD, how are you supposed to know that, why would you want to spawn a specific enemy in your game only when a character has 10% health ?
@@louismartin7608 Correction, it HAS to be under 10%. If it's exactly he won't spawn.
@@louismartin7608 the monster is like a scare/execution thing. it only appears once unless you bug the game by leaving the zone before it despawns.
Typically the mob would spawn when you're low on health and running away from a different zone, and make you scared, but it's been manipulated into an early game power levelling and gil farm mechanic lol.

@@BlueHarvey Sounds Easy 😉
Hi ! Is this a speedrun with Seitengrat strat ?
Hi! Yes, this speedrun is with Seitengrat.
before Belias, why do you fight the first moving wall and not just the second one? you can just skip it cant you?
I played on t he ps2 so i dont know if its changed. I always just ran back through the door to the second wall
@@reubendeeley3830 In both versions its possible to skip the first Demon Wall. But killing the first Demon Wall yields benefits instead of running away. Thats why we kill it.
World Record while wearing jammies. Maybe thats the secret to success.
Is the RNG the same on the newer generation consoles or are they slightly different than the ps4?
Slightly different. As in, on Ps5 you can still manip like you did on Ps4, but you need to consume more RNG to get to the seitengrat Rng value.
@@BlueHarvey Was a manip ever found on PC by chance?
@@cantaloupeme I hate to answer it with this but, "Yes, but actually no".
There is a RNG Tool avaialble to get the Seitengrat on PC, but it does read the games memory to see which RNG Position you are on (reading the games memory directly via a third party programm is not allowed for runs) whereas for the PS4 version, you can use the Cure values to see where you are at atm.

2 hours?! I dont even
Hope you enjoyed :) (sorry for my bad mood during the run!)

1:05:26 oof the 5% sonic fangs death strikes again
how did You make so much dmg on lvl 12 vs garuda
Seitengrat
Why is PS5 almost half an hour faster than PC?
Its The Ps4 Version which makes it faster. There is a way to get Seitengrat on PC but its so inconsistent that its not worth trying.
Whilst the Ps4/5 version has a consistent way of getting Seitengrat. Seitengrat speeds up the game by A TON!
Even faster seeing in 4x
Why does he always kill his companions like larsa and such lmao
This is for extra exp. If Larsa stays alive each character gets 1/4th of exp. If I rid of him, everyone gets 1/3rd of the exp.
In short, you get more exp.
this is not for europe
?
This dude just complains constantly. Every run, he is sick, or injured, or hungry... it may be true, but to just stop complaining.
What!!! You know what speed running is? They literally do the same thing over and over and over trying to get a perfect run any little mistakes mean you have to do it agine and they do those shit over and over and over, you have no understanding what they doing lol
