Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age any% [WR] Speedrun in
Ойындар
PS5 saves time
Got the timesave from Unfying, had several big timelosses though
- 4 crystal in Giza
- several bad menuing and movement mistakes
- almost ripped in feywood in the way to Parimina rift
- Mateus almost killed the run
- lost around 1 minute on Slyt split.
I could probably try to go for 2:15. Dunno if I will

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.

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 :)

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.

@@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: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fqN4zbymZ8zdetY.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 :)

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 :)

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.
