I think it would have been informative to mention that exp 0 leaves you with 1hp when taking hits, to avoid one shots. It also adds a damage floor during bosses, so that they don't take forever. (If you saw a comment from me before that I deleted, I got confused and thought this was kh2 before actually watching more than a minute, whoops)

Sometimes I think back to people who did KH 1.5HD LV1 when it came out and just am so amazed by how they did it.

@@Xiaolruc Yeah, I mean I was one of the people who did it but our strats were so bad. It was just how it was at the time, just a guessing game.

Final rest on level 1 was so unbelievably horrible that I had to resort to speedrunner tactics. Luckily I wasn't speedrunning so I had access to better magic accessories, keyblades, and more cheer abilities so it wasn't as tight with the timings. Incredible that we've collectively decided that the best way to handle that fight is to force no interaction at all.

I’ve started my first play through of KH a few days ago and i love it

good video

I've been finally playing through this series (I always kept getting stuck at some point), and one thing I find quite strange is that the voices in this run are all in Japanese. I've been playing the original PS2 Final Mix versions (I'm through KH1, Re:CoM, and am in KHII), and my Japanese copies of the PS2 Final Mix games have English voices with Japanese subtitles. So I find it so strange that the I'm guessing 1.5 HD? version you're playing has Japanese voices when the original had English, even in Japan.

This gunna be good 😮!!!

Your dialogue's getting better, you're really good at making yourself sound very clear but maybe try and focus on making it sound less like your reading a script, and more like a casual conversation if that makes sense?

@ViolinSpeedruns

5 ай бұрын

Damage Storage does work with Summons, but doesn't work on enemies with less than 300HP, and LSB have pretty small health bars. Not only that, but Dumbo takes 3MP to summon, takes at least 10 seconds to summon, and require both Donald and Goofy to be alive 😅

@ViolinSpeedruns

5 ай бұрын

That's a good point, I just assumed people would know so that's my bad. Level 1 is hard because you deal pretty bad physical damage (even with EXP Zero scaling), and you die everywhere in two hits. In the speedrun, there are various moments where you can get comboed at random into death, and it's also hard to get a perfect run due to various RNG patterns from stuff like the Genie summon, Anti Sora, LSB, and so on. The Oogie Manor fight is a prime example of why the run is difficult, as I could've easily died in various spots if my party didn't throw me a Potion, and I almost died at the end.

@ViolinSpeedruns

...Wait, you need to bother to kill a few Shadows to make Sq- *cough* Leon to actually show up? I never knew that, I thought just stepping in the Third District was enough. Oh yeah and something to go over from what I know of EXP Zero: As long as you keep it on and never level up, you automatically have a pseudo-Second Chance. What I mean by that is you can't be one-shotted at least from full HP. Anything less might still get you killed, but as long as you haven't taken a hit yet, you get at least one. Just think of it as you always have 2 HP at all times since literally any healing outside of ball prizes is a full heal at level 1.
