RNG MANIPULATION - SUB 3 SPEEDRUN - Hades Any Heat in

  • Took about 650 attempts, but I finally got the sub 3!
    Routed runs in Hades are Seeded runs with precise RNG Manipulation performed by the runner in order to get ideal rooms/enemies/boons/rewards to get the fastest run (in ingame time) possible. Routing is made possible through the use of mods, but legal runs must be performed without mods.
    Why so fast? So much Damage???
    This route takes advantage of the fact that bonus movespeed in Hades is multiplicative, so each ichor multiplies speed by 20% instead of adding 20%. This combined with Rush Delivery, Cluster Rockets, and plenty of Chaos Flourish boons, creates the monstrosity you see here.

      You memorize it after long enough, but it's also an ingame time category so you can pause to check your notes.
      When running this route we utilized a program called SplitNotes that superimposed notes over the gameplay for us & stream viewers to see. This was recorded offline so you can't see it but in the WR by Vorime you can see an example: ua-cam.com/video/BmSBaC4-Kds/v-deo.html

    • @cgull6980

      Yeah, some of our community members have tried doing some TAS work for Hades but the compatibility is just too much of a headache. They got as far as grabbing the first boon but everything after that just fell apart and was impossible :(
      TAS would enable in-combat RNG and stupidly fast and precise RNG manips which would be incredible.

      @@cgull6980 I think at that point it would be "easier" to emulate the entire console for TAS purposes because i imagine reverse engineering the game itself on PC would be too much work considering Hades 2 is coming out.
      I say "easier" because you hit many birds with the same stone.
      I am not tech savvy enough about the implications of doing with Hades alone but i am pretty sure it would be similar to implementing rollback netcode (for a single player game) as you have to implement savestate support which entails to basically rebuilding the entire game itself, insanely complicated stuff even if you were the developer.
      But who knows maybe in the future AI will do stuff useful for TASing these games, maybe they will be able to code the tools, hack the game for compatibility or maybe even play the games themselves

    • @cgull6980
      @cgull6980  2 роки тому +34

      Shooting everywhere: clearing shades away, since their movement calls RNG and puts you off route. Once they're gone, I talk to sisyphus and get the reward, which resets the RNG, now with no shades to screw things up.
      Codex - calls RNG when opening god boon menus, so it's part of the RNG manip, done once the RNG resets so the shades aren't a problem anymore

      The shades' movement increments RNG which throws off the manipulations. Getting the doors unlock resets it, so by clearing them out then talking to sisyphus you end up in a consistent state each time. After that, everything done is creating a precise number of RNG calls to receive a 10% movement speed buff from Bouldy, and make sure we end up in the correct room for the rest of the route.

      it's a separate category... nobody is pretending this is "faster" than an unseeded run, they're completely incomparable and take different skillsets. Calling it cheating is a huge disrespect to the dozens of hours of hard work the router & runners put into getting the run this way. How can it be "cheating" when it adheres to unique rules agreed upon by a community?
