Speedplans 1st June

OK, so.
Xenoblade didn't make it through ESA cuts, so I no longer have any real rush to improve in the game, since it's not like I have to be better at the game by a certain point. This changes a couple of things.

First of all, I think I'm going to prioritise (1) Setting up practice saves, (2) learning new strats, and (3) working on making my notes better and starting to memorise things for faster menus. Once I'm happier with that I'll probably start doing PB attempts where I reset heavily for a good start, and then go for Sub-6 or even further.

Secondly, while doing these attempts at least in the next few weeks, if nothing gets started before it gets too late I'll probably switch over to Lightning Returns, since I need to derust that for the relay. After the relay, my fallback game will either be Strider, or a new run which I'll start working on soon, or LR NG+DASH routing, which is something I want to start doing anyway.

Lastly, the lack of needing to have anything practiced for ESA is pretty nice, since it means I can work on what I want to for the next couple of months without interruption. This will include the following:

Strider (Any%, All Bosses, 100%)
[New Shorter project - currently secret]
Lego Rock Raiders (if I can ever get it running on my computer then I'll at least start this)
Lightning Returns - NG+DASH
[3 Long RPG runs - all currently secret]

It might take me a while to really get started with Xenoblade again, kind of lost motivation a little bit right now since I'm not really working towards anything, but expect to see PB attempts very soon
