[TAS] NES Dragon Warrior by RationalMonkey in
This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/4064M
TAS originally published on 2019-11-07
Dragon Warrior is a seemingly complex but ultimately fairly simple NES RPG. The character completes his quest at Level 7.
In this eighth published movie of the game, RationalMonkey ( tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/R... ) saves 00:13.39 seconds over the previous run ( tasvideos.org/4050M ), mostly by using wings in Rimuldar rather than a deathwarp. See the author's comments ( tasvideos.org/6535S ) for details. There are several things about this movie that might seem odd if one is not aware of them beforehand:
All unnecessary random encounters have been manipulated ( tasvideos.org/LuckManipulation ) into not happening.
The player dies several times in order to get transported back to the beginning.
Action commands are often delayed intentionally in order to manipulate critical hits and such.

I love the ridiculous amount of luck-manipulation in this TAS.
No wonder this guy is the king, if he can just veto death.
I like that the dragonlord keeps spamming stopspell because he really wanted to stop this bewicked magic which the protagonist never encounters anything😅
"By the way, did you happen to see my daughter anywhere while you were running around out there? She's been missing a while..."
King never asks "Why you are dead", he tells you "Y you are dead".
One year later: NESCardinality achieves this live on GDQ!
Real speedrunners don't need a princess.
Loved this game as a kid. Music was a particular fave, especially how the tempo of the music would get slower and slower as you went further and further down into dungeons.
One game I loved playing as a kid but could never beat because I never understood how saving on the NES worked for this game.
Bad ending because you didnt save your wife/princess lol. Nice run though :)
Me: how long have I been in a coma?
Everyone: There's definitely no more ways to improve this game.
Thou art a fool!
King: It will be a long and arduous journey, but the Dragon Lord
Dragonlord: "This naked, unarmed warrior dares to challenge me?"
Man, I’ve been grinding all wrong!
good speedrun dragon warrior eh the boots for fire good video
Like a BOSS!
Command?
So how did you become king?....
