Would the mods be willing to add a knife only best ending category?

Hi, GAMETORIANS -

Not really, because traditional speedrunning category definitions go like this, based on level of game completion:

low% = lowest item pickup/events. Knife falls under this category. any% = anything goes, as long as it's a fresh game, just trigger the ending. 100% = best ending. New Game + = bonus weapons/things carried over from previous save.

Give or take some variables. But Best Ending could fall under this.

As it stands now, it doesn't make sense to have a low% 100% category. There's no point in doing Knife Only Best Ending since the only real difference between Knife Only Normal and Knife Only Best Ending is the Super Tyrant (which even then can't be beaten without the Rocket Launcher at the end of the day).

In a run with weapons, you'd have to route around ammo pickups in such a way that there is enough to differentiate 100% and any%. In Knife Only, there's nothing there to differentiate it enough competitively between Bad Ending and Good Ending. We have enough categories, and nobody actively competes in it either. If there were more runners and they wanted to splinter off into a 100%, then I'd be for it due to popular demand, but I think there should be competition in it first.

Makes sense?

I understand
