This Any% (Restricted) run is performed by the world record holder, PeteSwanson, who also helped with the script. This category bans things such as the Stat Glitch and Renoir Skips, both of which I touch on in the video. This run also underwent a lot of rerouting during the production of this video. Due to the reroutes, we didn’t have the run recorded for this until a week into July. It was an absolutely incredible experience getting to see the run develop in real time during production. This run also features careful Pictos and Skills selections, optimization of Lumina, and multiple skips (Goblu Skip, Monoco Skip, and Old Lumiere Skip to name a few). The careful routing combined with Pete’s expert gameplay makes this run incredibly satisfying to watch. #ClairObscur #Expedition33 #Speedrun 0:00 Intro/Prologue 6:48 Spring Meadows (Act I) 13:04 Évêque fight (Spring Meadows, Act I) 15:59 Flying Waters (Act I) 21:02 Goblu Skip (Flying Waters, Act I) 23:57 Ancient Sanctuary, Gestral Village (Act I) 25:56 Password Skip (Esquie's Nest, Act I) 27:10 Esquie's Nest (Act I) 29:09 Stone Wave Cliffs (Act I) 35:55 Lampmaster fight (Stone Wave Cliffs, Act I) 40:23 Forgotten Battlefield (Act II) 44:38 Dualliste Skip (Forgotten Battlefield, Act II) 47:30 Monoco Skip (Monoco Station, Act II) 50:07 Old Lumière Skip (Old Lumière, Sirène Act II) 55:19 Visages (Act II) 59:58 Visages fight (Act II) 1:02:16 The Monolith (Act II) 1:05:43 The Paintress fight (Act II) 1:06:27 Inside the Monolith (Act II) 1:14:16 Renoir fight (Inside the Monolith, Act II) 1:15:50 Monolith Peak (Act II) 1:16:39 The Paintress fight (Monolith Peak, Act II) 1:20:39 Interlude 1:22:53 Lumière (Act III) 1:28:59 Creation Skip (Lumière, Act III) 1:29:19 Renoir fight (Lumière, Act III) 1:32:22 Final fight (Act III) 1:32:59 Thanks and outro!
