  • DISCLAIMER: This is over 4 minutes slower than the 2014 Hero Story TAS! My title is written as IGT, while the 2014 TAS is written in RTA. If you want a more optimal TAS (that however does not focus on 180 Emblems), go here: • [HD 16:9] Sonic Advent... Thanks and enjoy the video!
    IGT: 23:25.75 -- 4:51.23 faster than the 180 Emblems World Record.
    RTA: 36:40.38 -- ~0:58 faster than the 180 Emblems WR.

    Recorded on Dolphin 4.0-4222 Lua Build. 16756 rerecords total.
    This is not very optimal. A good, optimal TAS would be under 23 minutes. This run is optimized for 180 Emblems speedruns. This is part of the 180 Emblems LOTAD I am making.
    This is a project that I started for fun. You can find all of my SA2B TASes in this playlist: • Playlist
    Looking at it, you can see how I haven't done much at all. I only did a few levels before I started working on this monstrously big project. I am very inexperienced with TASing in this game. You can see improvements as the TAS goes on, but I am still very much a novice at TASing this game. Because of this, this TAS will not meet all expectations. I do some TAS Bouncing, for example, but I don't do it all that much. I limit myself in the areas where I TAS bounce.
    As time progresses and I get more comfortable with TAS bouncing, you will also see me do it more and more. Next up is Dark Story, so I will not be touching the Bounce Bracelet whatsoever in the next few months until we finally reach Last Story. I will have to start from the beginning again when I reach Sonic's section for Cannon's Core, but I will get better!

    Edit 10: ok to be honest I got distracted with other stuff (namely Mario & Luigi: Dream Team ROM hacking), sorry no Prison Lane this month :(
    Edit 9: I can't pin this comment anymore :( also 1:12.32 City Escape - ruclips.net/video/Vk5IqstukhI/видео.html I know this was 2 years ago but Prison Lane video will be out by the end of this month January 2024 I promise!!!!1111111 love you all :)
    Edit 8: 400,000 views is a lot of views... it's actually at 420,050 right now lol and also thanks again also I am skipping edit number 7 muahahaha I'll be continuing the TAS don't worry, you can find updates on PixiuTAS' channel
    Edit 6: 200,000 views is a lot of views... achieved the same day I became an aunt. Wonder if it means anything.... also, thank you all!
    Edit 5: 100,000 views is a lot of views.
    EDIT 4: City Escape in 1:18.87 - it has officially begun! ruclips.net/video/x0Cvsos2Lrs/видео.html also damn 85k views is a hell of a lot of views lol
    EDIT 3: Thank you for 10k views btw!! I find it so cool to see the number at 10k views so thank you you're all awesome :) I'm working on City Escape still! And it will be at least 7 seconds faster than the City Escape in this run, it's beautiful :)
    EDIT: New TAS process has officially begun and after only 25 seconds I'm already 0.80 seconds faster! :D
    EDIT 2: You can find the progression of the new TAS here: ruclips.net/video/iRA3BTtNj8E/видео.html - I will try to upload every single day when I'm done with TASing for the day. Currently I have 30 seconds of City Escape done, spanned over two days, which I uploaded and put in that playlist.
    Original comment:
    I would like to post an update on the 180 Emblems TAS (as of October 23rd 2021). I haven't been working on the TAS for a while mostly because of a lack of time and motivation. Soon I would have an actual schedule so I can plan when I can TAS in the schedule. I will probably restart the TAS from scratch using a save file to get the Tails chao (It saves around 9 minutes, so... Useful to me!), and I aim to redo Hero Story by the end of next February. I should have every single story done by the end of 2022, assuming I can start TASing next November.
    Do realize that this project is a seriously big project, even when you don't optimize everything (And if you do optimize everything, expect to finish the run in 20 years!). I only started making this project because of a philosophy I have: if you want to see something but it doesn't exist, do it yourself. That's exactly why I started this TAS. And I still want to see it, and everytime I think about the TAS I do get a tiny bit of motivation. I will probably finish it one day. Just gotta be patient I guess.
    I will release an update of the TAS once I reach Green Forest or something. I will make Green Forest the benchmark simply because if I post an update at City Escape, I may still decide to go back to this TAS you can see in this video and give up the updated TAS in favor of efficiency, but if I make it at Green Forest I'll be pretty confident I can finish the entire TAS' Hero Story.
    Anyway, that's all from me. In case you haven't seen them yet, here are some of the levels from after this point:

I’m really hoping that Rangers has some acrobatic open-world mechanics where we REALLY get to see Sonic’s abilities more realized in the games.

    My favorite thing about SA2 is that in order to get an A rank you either gotta explore to find every ring, be really fast or you have to be *stylish AF*
    And with a TAS that can do anything with enough love and care you can really make the last option shine

      Thank you! It's funny because in reality this TAS didn't take me thaaat long and nowadays I could easily beat this time in TAS in like a week if I wanted to (although I don't really TAS as much and I'm not sure how I could place TASing in my schedule (though I do plan to place it somewhere in my schedule as I want to finish the 180 Emblems TAS some time in my life).
      Truly, though, I agree. What I learned from making this TAS is that the 2014 Hero Story TAS is possibly the craziest TAS ever. Absolute insanity on how patient they were, and they didn't even have the tools we have now, making their TAS all that much more crazy. It's the TAS I respect the most because of it. Top notch patience and skill. My TAS pales in comparison.

    • @Pixiuchu
      @Pixiuchu  2 года назад

      I did not beat the OG TAS actually -- I guess this isn't very clear at all now I think about it and I'm sorry about that. The OG TAS had a 18:02 IGT, while this TAS had a 23:25 IGT. The difference between my title and the other TAS' title is that I used IGT while they used RTA. That's over 5 minutes slower.
      I estimate a good 180 Emblems-Hero Story TAS would be MAYBE a 21, but probably a low 22. I'm 9 seconds ahead leaving City Escape currently in a new version of the TAS. There is an extremely low chance the old 2014 TAS can be beaten while getting all A Ranks, and the only reason there is a chance to begin with is because the current TASers of the game have advanced a lot since then and because there is a trick in Eternal Engine called Bofa (for the fact you hit bofa (both of) the boxes) which saves about 32 seconds in TAS, but even then you'd have to spend half a minute whistle glitching and only save like 5 seconds. We'd have to be lucky to get sub 20 lol
      I guess we'll see when Hero Story is done... ...Except Hero Story won't be done until the end of Dark Story because of a new route that requires you to do Dark Story after half of Hero Story lol. So by the time Hero Story is done, Last Story will be done very shortly after :)

      TBH I think Cosmic Wall is the easiest to get an A Rank on if you know what you're doing. If you DONT know what you're doing, Hidden Base is the easiest.
      Metal Harbor M4 deserves its' spot as the hardest though. If you can get that, you can probably get all the rest, lol.
      Glad you enjoyed :)
      edit: oh and the easiest hunting level to get an A Rank in is, to me, almost definitely Death Chamber, because as long as you can avoid death you're pretty much guaranteed an A Rank unless you take like 10 minutes.
      Actually I take it all back. The absolute easiest IL to get an A Rank in is Route 101 Mission 5. Why? Because it is literally impossible to get a B Rank or worse. You have 2:50 to complete the stage, but the A Rank requirement requires you to get 2:50 or below. Good game.
