Remarkable. So is this player performing all of these movements that change the RNG behaviour from (muscle) memory?

- TremendousJudge 8y agoYeah, pretty much. Speedrunning takes all the obsessive practicing of classical piano concert performance and applies it to video games. It's insane
- aidenn0 8y agoThey look down at their notes at several time, so not just pure memory, but it's still impressive. Also note that when you move the cursor in a direction that it can't move (e.g. off the top of the menu) the cursor freezes for an exact number of frames. So if you e.g. hit "up" then "right" the cursor will always move right after a specific frame delay. They use that in order to get frame exact timings that would otherwise be impossible (the "Command?" message also has a different delay, so they can combine the two to get to the frame they need). The memory is impressive, but belies the massive amount of trial and error that was needed to find the correct combinations.
