You can actually use a pot to help get into the void space if you smash one while facing to the right of the first npc. The animation sends your character a step backwards into the wall, you just got to b hop at the same time you do it. I know it's pretty hard to do so most speed runners don't try it but it could save up to 2 seconds in the run.

Love how you nailed what a cutscene would be like, with the repeated dialogue and skip surrounding only an early part of the conversation! Felt very accurate, and that always makes these great!

5:00 at this point I would expect she say "this sword was carefully designed pixel by pixel, atom by atom to cost exactly 16 florins on sell"

That is a meta as hell ending.

Most competitions at a sufficiently high level require a frustrating amount of effort, but the sense of accomplishment of being the best at something can be glorious. Personally, I would not enjoy speedrunning, but I can get the appeal of succeeding at something difficult.

I thought there might be a plot twist ending that she was the player trying to get the player to take the sword to trigger a speed run glitch.

I'm always annoyed by the "speedrunners skip the game" joke. It's just not true, you have to LOVE a game and know EVERYTHING about it in order to speedrun. You think someone who didn't love playing twilight princess could have figured out that the "new item" animation was missing a frame which causes link to slide backwards ever so slightly and if you position him right when you pick something up and wait a few hours he will clip through walls? You would have to be obessive about a game to even want to do a run that required you to set the controller down for hours, and hit the button at the right second afterwards.

There are different kinds of speedrunners, as I see it.. Sure, a number of them are genuine fans, but there are also a lot of them who are completely indifferent to what game they're speedrunning. People with an interest in bragging rights, a sense of accomplishment, leaderboards, etc.. They'll either explore a game for glitches/bugs/efficiency based on that or look up what fans of the game have figured out.. They just have a different kind of obsession.
