[SPOILERS]
Loved every second of this game, I was prepared to run it just as a reason to continue being immersed in the visuals, but the more I played the more of a speed game it became. I am a huge fan of the "insecure" feeling of most areas in the game, if you want to wander into a softlocked area you can, but despite that, i never softlocked due to exploring. Makes the speedrun a minefield as well, and imo adds to the fun of running it. Being able to stop time with this gem was genuinely therapeutic, thank you.
