Can confirm that yes, all the checkpoint restarts seen in mattmatt10111's runs can be used on console.

Understood, thanks.

Hey there. I got it in my head recently to go for the Glitchless NG+ record for Dead Space 3. I watched Mattmatt10111's WR run, and was confused when I saw him checkpoint-restarting to bypass a few lengthy conversations in order to open doors that are locked until those conversations end. Does that not count at a skip? I'm very new to speedrunning, so I'm still a bit unclear as to what does and does not qualify as such.

Please know, It is not my intention to accuse, or attempt to invalidate his run. I'm asking from a purely inquisitive standpoint. If this is a legitimate tactic, I'll be more than happy to incorporate it into my own runs.

I watched the WR run on mute, so If this was explained in the video, then I apologize for this post.
