Run starts at 07:25
My first full game run of Blue Dragon, and what a run it was. With how badly some bosses in Disc 3 went, I'm surprised that this was sub 8 hours. Discs 1 and 2 were pretty solid, although the Black Belt grind could have been faster. Sub 7 is more than doable, but beating the segmented run and getting sub 6:30 will be very testing.
Here's some rough estimates on the largest time-losses:
Final Boss - 22 minutes
Pyro Dragon - 8 minutes
Rockwind Wolf Ghost - 8 minutes
I was an idiot and accidentally paused my splits when attempting to skip a split after the Black Belt grind, so I timed it afterwards, and it was roughly 6.8 seconds of being paused, so I rounded it up to 7 and added the time to each of the following splits accordingly.
For a first run, I'm pretty happy with this. As I said at the end, it did everything a first run should do, which is give me experience and highlight the areas that need improvement. With that in mind, and the fact that this was still somehow sub 8, I'd say I'm more than content with this for my first run. Oh, and side note, my sum of best at the end is inaccurate, as I missed 2 splits during the run. It's actually barely sub 7, but it'll go way down when I get a better Black Belt grind and Disc 3.
