Stuff like this shows how lucky we all are to be part of as active and dedicated community as this, with this, all 4 games will have a detailed and updated speedrun video guide/guide series of some kind, that's something that is VERY rare in Speedrunning

[@XXMARIOXX-dk4po]

all 3. 4 is non canon fanfic.

[@James352_]

@@XXMARIOXX-dk4po have you ever seen a 4 Speedrun? it's got some good movement and is a pretty cool run

[@djguldged1268]

THANK YOU

[@mikigzaielart]

Sly 2 is my favorite game ever. I have a huge urge to try to speedrun this game, but three things hold me back. 1: It's so long. 2: I am afraid I will ruin my immersion and perception of the game... 3: The technological side of things.

[@frizzuh]
