Lufia II RotS any% Speedrun World Record in

Game: Lufia II Rise of the Sinistrals
Category: any% NMG RTA
Version: NTSC-U
Date: Jan. 27th 2018
Since the real any% is just a menu credits warp this category is the main category for Lufia 2, "No Major Glitches". This category doesn't allow any gamebreaking glitches, big skips or sequence breaks but is almost entirely RNG manipulated by executing every screen without any mistakes on action inputs or movement errors.

Got here after watching DoctorSwellman's breakdown on the crazy credits warp glitch run. It's a lot of fun watching it being quickly played through without such major glitches, too.

Lufia II was the first RPG I ever really played all the way through as a kid, and it was incredibly influential to me. It's a joy seeing someone blow it away like this. Killer run bro, good to see this game getting the love I feel it deserves.

[@XaviarCraig]

Hah kinda of the same for me. It was first SNES game I ever bought! Initially I almost got talked into FFVI but the guy at the game store insisted Lufia 2 would be a better starter jRPG than FFVI. Looking back I can see why!

[@DaVince21]

Always loved how the navaroa fish sprite looks like every part of the fish that you normally wouldn't eat.

[@chrispysaid]

It always bothered me that Tia has the ABSOLUTE GALL to pay you less than what you're owed for the work you did, then flirt with you AND GET MAD AT YOU WHEN YOU TURN HER DOWN?? Like bro, maybe try shooting your shot when you're not _stealing from me_

[@DekarNL]

Love this game. Cool to see it being destroyed in just a few hours

[@Zheal]

Very fun, intense and super precise speedrun, glad you liked it.

Eines der schönsten SNES RPG aller Zeiten.. Dicht gefolgt von Secret of Mana und Terranigma.. Die SNES hatte schon einiges zu bieten.. Mal abgesehen von allen anderen wundervollen RPGs auf der SNES.. Bin aktuell alle mal wieder am durchspielen, ein hoch auf die emulatoren.. 😁
Deine speedruns sind mega, Stiftet einen dazu an das auch in Angriff zu nehmen, bis dahin erstmal Any % genießen 😁
Hoffe es kommen bald neue Runs, sobald ich in Gruberia auftauche wird definitiv die ahnenhöhle gesuchtet, ich mag sie ja mit Arty mehr, aber Dekar haut halt schon rein 😄
Bis dahin 😊
Ps
Wenn Maxim und Selan heiraten, plus alles davor und danach, da kommen mir jedes Mal fast die Tränen, wie schnell es Lufia schafft ne Connection zu den Charakteren zu finden ist einmalig 😊

It's always cool to see THE POWER OF ITEMS in the hands of something like this. Fighting? Grinding? Nah, just ITEM BAG TO THE RESCUE
I would be esctactic with just figuring out how to get the rare drops, like the Catfish Jewel, without rng manip; nevermind the best possible thing actually owning the game physically (with a console to play it) ^^::

I was looking for someone who sped run this game and you did a great job. I know your not currently working on this game but there is a glitch with the hammer item that can cause you to go from getting the 2nd engine straight to near the end of the game. It might save a lot of time, im not sure. But basically you can use the hammer animation and move at the same time, and there is a spot where you revisit that has a second trigger just past the first one your supposed to hit, but if you hammer move at that location, you skip over it to the next trigger which if i remember correctly sends you straight to the sinistral island.
I was curious if you were aware of this.

[@Zheal]

no i was not but it sounds very interesting. there is an easy way to ACE in this game so the actual any% is a credits warp. this here is actually no major glitches even though no one refers to it like that but a skip of that size would also rather be a major glitch. i'd be still interested to see it. you can pm me on discord if you want to talk about this

Lufia,Secret of Evermore and Terranigma iconic childhood memorys

[@PsychokoreUndergroundRap]

Every time.. i get watery eyes when Selan dies.. idk why i am so sensitive about that. Must be deep rooted abandoment issues or something.

[@Dekar92]

Warum steht in der Video Beschreibung als Game Secret of Mana? :D

[@Zheal]

korrigiert, danke

[@genautelevishn5999]

those are the games i grew up with
lufia, secret of mana and breathe of fire :)

[@bonesaw8]

What's up with always going to Save locations and entering the screen but seemingly not actually saving the game?

[@eyang7]

One of my favorite rpg! 👉👍✌️

[@megabyte6245]

do it again but all pets this time :D

[@Zital1992]

Wieso hast du den alle deine Videos gelöscht ? hatte heute vor deine Suikoden Reihe wieder anzusehen o.0

[@Zheal]

Im nachhein betrachtet hätt ich für die speedruns evt nen neuen channel machen sollen anstelle den alten "umzufunktionieren" aber der LP channel wird mittlerweile mit ziemlicher sicherheit nicht mehr weitergeführt werden also auch nicht wirklich viel grund ihn zu behalten

[@juanrosales336]

Hi, can you make some guide explaining the end of manipulation rng of this game please?

[@Zheal]

i am currently not working on this game but when I return I'll make a guide about the route and the manipulations. if you have any specific questions you can contact me.

[@erzengel222]

wie bekommt man die juwelen bei den bossen zu 100% xD ?

[@Zheal]

movememt und boss strats sind präzise geroute, so, dass man sie bekommt wenn man alles perfekt genau so macht
