This has been sitting in my YouTube uploads as a draft for about a year and a half now. I wanted to upload Mania S-rank runs with the rest of the main cast back to back, but it's been so long since I played this that that's clearly not happening. I'll just play the other characters "eventually." SOR4 is one of the all time great beat em ups, so it's a game that I'll keep coming back to as the years go by anyway. I'd actually like to play the launch version of the game again as well... it's a shame that you can't switch between the different patches at will, like using different versions of the characters in some of the Street Fighter 2 releases. The game changed dramatically a few times, and the final version won't be everyone's favorite. I wonder if the only way to play the original is to buy the first disc release on PS4 or something? I need to look into it.
I do remember Floyd being an absolute beast in this version of the game though. I haven't rewatched this video, but I think I only died a handful of times. When I was playing him I felt like this would be the character I'd want to use in a no death run. He's that strong, and fun to play too.
