Is that just because no one cares to create a TAS for the game? I don't know anyway a RTA would be faster than TAS other than no good TAS exists.

- colechristensen 2y agoI’d say more like the TAS is outdated, a person can discover something new that the person doing the TAS didn’t.
- nextlevelwizard 2y agoBoth are a decade old. Looks to be posted within weeks of each other. If this is the best TAS there is for the game, it means that no one cares about the TAS.
- dezgeg 2y agoUsually the timing rules aren't the same for TAS and RTA, as TAS timing always starts at console power-on while RTA usually when 'new game' is selected from the menu.
- nextlevelwizard 2y agoYou mean "usually" in sense that for this game in particular or "usually" as in "most of the time regardless of the game"? Because I have never heard about TAS being timed differently than RTA in any other game, that doesn't even make any sense. Game is the same, why would you time TAS from different point than RTA? Whole point of a TAS is to show what "perfect" speed run would look like.
- dezgeg 2y agoUsually as in "most of the time regardless of the game", yes. Seems like a sibling comment explained this already in much more detail: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42082420 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42082420
