A few notes this run:
1. This category bans the use of the Calculator skillset "Math Skill", which trivializes the game by allowing you to instantly cast Black Magic, White Magic, Time Magic, and Yin-Yang Magic on multiple targets for 0 MP.
2. I wanted to add some additional information that wasn't covered in the commentary in the right sidebar (which is why it remains blank), but ran out of time due to dumb rendering issues, and also I think I ended up covering enough as is.
3. Gariland Magic City is a bit choppy cause I tried recording this at 60 FPS, but ended up giving up and recording at 30 FPS for the rest of the video.
4. I split commentary up into multiple parts. Most of the splits were in Ch. 1 as I tried to find the flow of commentating, but after that it was just done by chapter.

I know this category is a bit long, so here are some sections I recommend checking out in order to get a feel for what the run / commentary will be like:

0:00 - Intro about the game / run + what's changed
1:54 - Orbonne Monastery + some gameplay mechanics overview (basic SRPG stuff, camera management)

14:52 - Hiring office (biggest singular source of RNG in the run)
16:03 - Pre Mandalia Plains (first instance of the JP Scroll glitch)
18:15 - Mandalia Plains + more run details (efficient grinding, positioning, killing off your own units)

2:17:01 - Lesalia Imperial Capital (first instance of the Draw Out + Quick abuse to quickly kill bosses)
2:23:49 - Underground Book Storage 3rd Floor (here I just took the time to explain why my party works the way it does + what role everyone has, to catch people up & clarify a few things)
2:26:10 - Underground Book Storage 1st Floor (explanation of an AI exploit to prevent Holy Sword damage)
2:41:35 - Yuguo Woods (new strategy compared to older submission videos + an example of a fight with zero luck)

3:24:04 - Bethla Sluice (the only mission with a unique (pacifist) mission objective, and another example of exploiting the AI)
3:32:07 - Germinas Peak (shows off an interesting strategy that plans around Ramza potentially dying, as well as the first instance of Orlandu murdering stuff)
3:42:05 - Cemetery of Limberry Castle / Zalera (first instance of using Two Hands + physical attack boosting items to quickly kill Zodiac demons)
3:47:54 - Pre Igros Castle (further explanation on the encounter system)
4:00:20 - Murond Chapel / Zalbag (another instance of an AI exploit)
