The most based post I've ever seen in the history of posts
yeah I think it should be added as a misc category.
In Celestial Ending as Confused mentioned, we run on a downpatch of the game where dissonance causes no enemies to spawn.
In general, sometimes enemy bosses do not spawn because of how the teleporter is positioned. Particularly Vultures tend to not spawn if the TP is in a weird enough position, presumably because the game wasn't able to find a place to spawn them in. In some runs you can see them spawn in only at one particular place. Unfortunately not having a boss can make the run worse since you lose out on a green item.
I disqualify this speedrun, as it uses outdated version of the game. At least this is not Risk of Rain 2 speedrun. Call it Outdated Risk of Rain 2 speedrun, that it will be fine. But don't claim it to be proper ROR2 speedrun. Do it on a new map, lets see how you'll gona get 7 mins.
Fake news, pods aren't real. I've never even seen one on stage 1, and everyone I know that runs has never seen one. Runs using pods are doctored and cheating. Sad!
