[TAS] Sonic Adventure 2 "Hero Story A-Ranks" in

[@Pixiuchu]

Edit 11 (2024/09/17): If you do not know what a TAS is - please check this video out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f5bXnGRjjMdqpbs Regarding Knuckles: I know where all the pieces are before the level even starts because I use save states to manipulate RNG and to scout out the level, and *then* I play the level. I must have at least a hundred comments about just Knuckles. Also please don't skip Eternal Engine, it's my favourite Tails stage and that is literally the only EE Skipless TAS that exists

[@samuelq618]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXrHqWqlopeclZI at this part would it not just be faster to have the tas go directly on the rail rather than homing attack all the way up?

[@Pixiuchu]

For the point bonus, it would not, because the game has certain triggers that need to be hit. That trigger is at the top of the rails.

Truly, though, I agree. What I learned from making this TAS is that the 2014 Hero Story TAS is possibly the craziest TAS ever. Absolute insanity on how patient they were, and they didn't even have the tools we have now, making their TAS all that much more crazy. It's the TAS I respect the most because of it. Top notch patience and skill. My TAS pales in comparison.

[@backlogrob8358]

What’s TAS?

[@MrX01011000]

@@backlogrob8358 TAS stands for “Tool Assisted Speedrun.” It’s when the runner uses various tools to make the game easier to speedrun, such as resetting, freeze framing for precision jumps, button presses, etc., and for manipulating things like random number generators in the runners favor. It is essentially a way to show the best possible way to play a game, but often only at inhuman levels of precision, speed, and reflex.

i missed out on you holy crap, beats the og tas by almost 2 minutes with all a ranks shows how much this tas has progressed

[@Pixiuchu]

I did not beat the OG TAS actually -- I guess this isn't very clear at all now I think about it and I'm sorry about that. The OG TAS had a 18:02 IGT, while this TAS had a 23:25 IGT. The difference between my title and the other TAS' title is that I used IGT while they used RTA. That's over 5 minutes slower. I estimate a good 180 Emblems-Hero Story TAS would be MAYBE a 21, but probably a low 22. I'm 9 seconds ahead leaving City Escape currently in a new version of the TAS. There is an extremely low chance the old 2014 TAS can be beaten while getting all A Ranks, and the only reason there is a chance to begin with is because the current TASers of the game have advanced a lot since then and because there is a trick in Eternal Engine called Bofa (for the fact you hit bofa (both of) the boxes) which saves about 32 seconds in TAS, but even then you'd have to spend half a minute whistle glitching and only save like 5 seconds. We'd have to be lucky to get sub 20 lol I guess we'll see when Hero Story is done... ...Except Hero Story won't be done until the end of Dark Story because of a new route that requires you to do Dark Story after half of Hero Story lol.

YO HOLY SHIT I FOUND IT ONE OF MY OLD CHILDHOOD GAMES I WANTED TO PLAY AGAIN

[@Pixiuchu]

It do be a great game :)

Speedrun Sonic scares me. He forsakes the enjoyment of loopings in favor of a few extra seconds. He's cold, calculated and probably sees the world and its people around himself as obstacles rather than living beings.

Touching. I like this comment.

11:11 I jokingly said “8 minutes? All I need is two” when the level started, I’m shocked to see that he didn’t even need 2 minutes

[@Flashguy4826]

That's WAY too fucking funny, because I was thinking the same thing!! "8 minutes? I can finish in two!" XDD

Sonic TAS videos are what shows Sonic's actual speed.

That Final Rush was awesome

[@khy6041]

Ikr 😂😂😂

[@ShoopDaWoosh]

I choose to believe Sonic's stages are just how they canonically happened. Just fuck-you speed. Especially Final Rush.
