This post encouraged me to finally try something I’ve been putting off for months, and it went better than I expected. Your clarity gave me that push. The starter guides on Harp Isles’ wiki gave me a similar nudge.
Really enjoyed your perspective on game pace versus reading comprehension. I do a lot of route research on the Roblox WikiRace speedrun database, and balance between the two seems to be the key differentiator.
