Episode #8 of Casual VS Speedrun in GTA V - a nice return to action after the missions of last episode, reaching us to just about halfway in the game.
These missions were tough to figure out how to portray, as the order seriously changes every speedrun. Easily the most challenging routing of the run for gta v since it changes often, which isn't super common in most speedruns as far as I'm aware. If anyone knows any other games that very much rely on knowledge to change the order, do let me know, I'm very curious.
As of the posting of this video, I now hold the record for the GTA V Classic% Speedrun, hence why it took awhile to come out. I'm super excited to say I've held it once now - I don't expect to keep it for too long right now and look forward to the battle to keep getting better at the game and lowering the time.
If you'd like to watch the WR vod you can see it here, unlisted on youtube or twitch - speedrun.com/gtav/run/yvjd6e8y - youtube.com/watch?v=3jBoo9n-_N4

_________________________________________________________________
I am playing as both the casual player and the speedrunner, so it's like facing against myself with a 10 foot pole. For the casual player, I play the game as if I've watched a GTA V speedrunner play the game once or so, so I know the mission order and where to go between missions, then play the missions as the game instructs you, giving the most shockingly average gameplay you've ever seen.
The Classic% Category in GTAV Speedrunning is the most competitive category, you can see the leaderboards and view all the details and rules here if you so wish: speedrun.com/gtav
