i wonder if any game ever has a "glitchless low%" category on speedrun.com
-F
@IceWolf why? in most games it would be identical to normal glitchless any% and in the ones where it's different it wouldn't be terribly interesting
-F
@Felthry Oh so there /are/ glitchless any%? Didn't know those were a thing, cool.
@IceWolf yeah the categories you can be pretty sure exist for most games are any%, 100%, and glitchless versions of each of those
the main appeal of low% at least to us is all the interesting glitches you make use of to get around things that are normally hard required
for example last we checked the low% route for ocarina of time never gets an ocarina
-F
@IceWolf you use the ocarina items glitch every time you need to play a song, and clipping past the door of time to skip needing the song of time is one of the oldest and most well-known glitches in the game

@Felthry While Hollow Knight doesn't have any "true glitchless" categories tmk, what it has instead is "no major glitches" (see https://pastebin.com/VtzvMpyW). If that's good enough to count, it does have "glitchless low%".
@Felthry That sounds like fun!
