Soooooooo, Utopia City. Checked off the list for speedgames I've done now.
Overall thoughts? It sucks.
You may notice the first 16 minutes of the game are spent just killing enemies repeatedly. Now admittedly, maybe a more skilled player could speed things up by killing and grinding as they go along, but this game puts you in some pretty shitty situations with regards to enemy spawns, you are naturally going to want to do things the safe way starting off. This run was also hampered by me being a bit jittery this morning when I did the run. Guess I'm not one for morning speedrunning, even off stream.
You at least need the third weapon to get by. The 5th weapon seems to be best with the end boss... Except this time the sonovubitch did not die in the 5 rocket shots as I did it last time. I think I actually needed to aim elsewhere.
Anyhow... Screw this game.
