NMH: Red Zone Edition/Heroes' Paradise (PS3) - Any% NG+ Bitter Speed Run in

Описание: [May 1, 2023] A while back, I finished off the trophies on North American Heroes' Paradise with an Any% NG+ Bitter run (   • NMH: Heroes' Paradise (PS3) - Any% NG+ Bit...  ). While going through the trophies on Red Zone recently, I decided to finish the same way. Heroes' Paradise and Red Zone are 99% identical besides language, meaning that this RZ run is directly comparable to (and in turn, obsoletes) that earlier HP run.

Truth be told, the run was mostly average until quite literally the last three splits where I saved four minutes from Jeane's level and another four from Henry. In the former, I gained time in a way that didn't click in my brain until right before hitting the split; the first HP run got the bike glitch (   • NMH: Heroes' Paradise (PS3) - Any% NG+ Bit...  ,    • NMH: Heroes' Paradise (PS3) - Falling off ...  ) and I had to reload the save, so I got a massive, no-effort time save by virtue of just not getting the glitch. In the latter case with Henry, I used a variant of my current NG+ Henry strategy, whereas the old Henry fight was rather cautious and relatively unstructured, saving time by having a stronger, more aggressive core approach. [Small correction: during the Henry fight, I say in my commentary that he might sometimes weirdly back up during his combo in other versions, but that may have been just me getting mixed up in the moment, as I struggle now to think of him ever really doing that on Wii/Switch.]

All in all, I had more fun than expected, and saved much more time than expected. And not only did I get all of the trophies here, it also means that I have gotten every trophy in three versions of Heroes' Paradise: https://imgur.com/a/MTYif5h

I guess I really did take it to the Red Zone!
