I was wondering who else if anyone is interested in glitchless, i want to do all missions runs but spending half of the game in an unloaded screen hopping around borders is really boring to me. Maybe even a category extension? w/ no OOB/skips/hover ect glitches.
seems interesting. I;ve dabbled with the idea doing an all missions deathless/hitless, etc with no glitches or OOB, so a speedrun without glitches im open to. But fyi, it would be very long, prob at least 3 hours even if optimised
hitless would be crazy! I had just found out about OpenGOAL and now that it runs well and doesnt crash I want to run it. Ill start seeing what All Missions (Glitchless) looks like.
Hitless (any%) runs have already been done by @septerna on base Jak II -> https://www.speedrun.com/jak2ext/runs/yod3x65m. I'm unsure if All Missions hitless runs have really been considered.
As for glitchless, since this topic often pops up across the Jak games, it's just very hard to reach a mutual conclusion on what a glitch really is. Is percentage-warping a glitch if it's just triggering a later cutscene? Are extended front-flips "glitches" if you're just doing a very fancy jetboard trick? Therefore, is hovering a glitch if it's multiple fancy jetboard tricks? It can be quite hard to reach a decision. So the answer to that is, feel free to make your own route and definition. Unsure if it will be a popular or accepted definition, but you are always free to do as you like on the All Missions leaderboards and submit your run as you please.
