I'm not going to write a thesis - short version is, it is NOT NG, it's NG+.
The Veteran background cannot be picked until the game has already been completed. Further, it's not just a random lore thing, it does give a VERY significant advantage to a runner (iirc about 30-50 AP, which can be distributed to any skill you want).
Whilst I congratulate the runner on their time, and am fully aware that I sound like a spurned lover (since yes, it was my time that got bumped) - Veteran in my view has no place being a valid NG choice.
If the category was "any%", sure, I'd cop it and move on. But the fact that it has been very specifically marked as "any% NG" broils me a little.
Hey there, I know that most of you are probably surprised to see any kind of activity here. I've become the new moderator for Alpha Protocol since the old mod, thevk, has been inactive for over a year and no longer speedruns anything. With that said, there's been a lot of problems that have bothered
