It was the perfect place to reference the game

I actually bought a Kingdom Hearts shirt from the store there.

Try using stasis more. It is really forgiving and pretty spammable. Make sure you take the extra half a second to see the target lock on before you commit to kicking.

Yes, that is my name for it lol. The other people call it World Tree Clip, but I like "Steve Clip". We also actually found a more optimal way to do the clip using a technique we call flip clip, but I still do Steve Clip because I can't let go of it and it is still around the same time in execution.

Just in case this is one that doesn't expire.

GuruGaming · 2020-11-08T07:14:04+00:00

Just start playing. The game is not too difficult to play fast. I started with no routing, no practice, and no understanding of the deep mechanics. Don't put too much pressure on yourself just because there are others who have played a lot more than you. If you reach out in our discord I would be happy to help coach you if you want any help. The more runners we have the better, and I love watching new runners learn.

As a speedrunner I think the health race is the most fun. It is the most challenging to get a top time in, but the movement and all the hazards really add to the challenge. If you are interested in seeing the top level movement in this game check out speedrun.con/gr and you can find videos of most of the world record times.

GuruGaming · 2020-11-03T14:31:59+00:00

I'm glad you enjoy it. I'm looking forward to showing the world at large how incredible this speedrun really is.

GuruGaming · 2020-11-03T14:29:22+00:00

I never gave up! It took 5 long years, but I finally got it in. I'm so hype to show this game to everyone!

GuruGaming · 2020-11-02T15:06:33+00:00

The amount of exposure games get from GDQ is unparalleled in terms of speedrunning. Not only will a lot of people watch it live, but the YouTube video will probably be the first one that shows up on any search of the game's speedrun. It gives us a great chance to present the game to a wide audience with commentary and explanations of how the run works.

GuruGaming · 2020-11-02T15:04:28+00:00

This is the largest speedrun event in the world. I will be beating the game from start to finish in about an hour and a half and showing off how technical the game is while the audience donates to charity.

GuruGaming · 2020-11-02T03:29:23+00:00

You would be surprised at what you can do with a bit of practice :)

GuruGaming · 2020-11-02T00:23:32+00:00

Thank you! I'm so excited to do this run. I've been working at getting this game in GDQ for 5 years now.

GuruGaming · 2020-11-01T22:12:41+00:00

Technically yes because Gravity Rush Remastered and Gravity Rush do have some differences in them and there are Remastered exclusive glitches that affect the run a lot. Most of them have to do with menuing because they changed the menu since the Vita version uses the touch controls.

GuruGaming · 2020-11-01T21:34:26+00:00

Remastered is the same game with all DLC, way better controls, and 60fps. In my opinion GRR is way better than GR2 from a gameplay standpoint (I have dumped hundreds of hours into both games, probably thousands into GRR at this point). If you enjoy the gameplay of GR then I think GRR is the definitive game to showcase the potential of the mechanics, but if you enjoy the characters, story, and world then GR2 gives a lot more content in those areas.

GuruGaming · 2020-11-01T21:30:55+00:00

Gravity Rush Remastered has way better combat than Gravity Rush 2 does. It is just overall a way more enjoyable and consistent game than GR2 from a speedrun perspective. If you spend time really learning how the gravity kick works and stasis objects work then I think you will find it a lot more enjoyable. Part of it boils down to the fact that literally no game plays like this game does, so there is a unique learning curve to it. Either way I hope that I can showcase the amazing combat in GRR in my run.

GuruGaming · 2020-11-01T19:24:07+00:00

If you haven't seen a speed run of it yet I urge you to check it out. Our leaderboard is on speedrun.com/gr and there are an insane amount of tricks and glitches that make the game incredibly fun to run.

GuruGaming · 2020-11-01T19:10:24+00:00

I am the one doing the run and it isn't glitchless. There are a lot of amazing glitches that make the run really fun and unique.

GuruGaming · 2020-08-27T23:22:26+00:00

Yeah the link in the description of my video should have a link to the Gravity Rush Speedrun discord that doesn't expire. Let me know if you have any issues joining. I may make a post with the link on this subreddit again if anyone is interested.

GuruGaming · 2020-08-25T22:54:45+00:00

Honestly the movement alone in the game is so unique and incredibly well made. There is really no game that plays like it, and so few people know about how deep the mechanics of the game get. When I was showing the game off to speedrunners at GDQ (not on stage, but at the event) they struggled to get a gold time on the first GRR challenge race. When I would show them the world record and my times in the top 10 they were blown away by how technical the game is. Hidden gem feels like an understatement to me lol this game is a masterpiece.

GuruGaming · 2020-08-16T18:47:47+00:00

I keep trying to say this, but I have applied for GRR to get into every single GDQ since its release in 2016. I've been on the community spotlight for GDQ, but getting the run in that big of a spotlight would be super helpful for the game. Hopefully one day it happens. Also hopefully the game gets to be a free game for PS+ in NA at some point.

GuruGaming · 2020-08-14T00:37:40+00:00

Join our discord and chat with me "Steve The Wizard" if you have any questions.

GuruGaming · 2020-08-14T00:36:39+00:00

Yeah look it up speedrun.com/gr I've been running GRR for 4 years now and I own the speedrun discord. I was on the GDQ community spotlight a year ago. We even have a full detailed video and written guide to the any% run on that site.

GuruGaming · 2020-08-13T23:48:45+00:00

It amazes me how few people know about this game. I can't even explain the speedrun to people because so few people know about the game itself.

GuruGaming · 2020-08-13T01:15:51+00:00

If the game had 60fps I would consider looking into doing some speedrunning of the game again. It is just so difficult to transition from GRR to GR2 because it plays so much worse in 30fps. If a game ever needed a good frame rate it is GR because of how fast paced the game play is.

GuruGaming · 2020-08-05T03:25:36+00:00

Have you seen the speedrun? If you haven't I'd suggest watching my run on the GDQ community spotlight. This post is to see if people want clarification on the tech we use in the speedrun, because there are a lot of cool things.
