Full gameplay of Bad Omen. This is basically Devilish: The Next Possession in Genesis. I use Japanese version tho, cause i think it is cool. The truth is, i didn't beat meerkov's time in the US ver. so it's obsolete. But hey! I include all of this in gameplay, especially after boss. What i hate on this TAS is Stage 4 because it slows up the time, especially boss. Good thing, i didn't use any keyboard or controller in making of this (cuz I don't have controller). I'm using the button frame scrolling tool in TAStudio (what do you called that thing?) to advance frame. So when it comes to output, it is perfect, even tho it slows the time. God help me. Please review this bk2 file if i failed.
About Fourth Stage, Well that stage is basically trash! it slows the time and I hated it!
QnA:(on YouTube) check Helium Squad.
Q: What emulator did you use?
A: I use Bizhawk to make speedruns of course, and it sucks.
Q: Is this game popular?
A: Maybe, but this game is the best. You know why?? It has a better sprite graphics, better sounds and music composed by Hitoshi Sakimoto, who composed the Final fantasy series and stuff, better gameplay, and has 2 game modes, which is fine for me.
Q: When did you upload the .bk2 version? What date?
A: Maybe soon. I'll update this answer if I have time to upload the bk2 file in TASvideos site.
Q: Who's meerkov btw?
A: well meerkov is a TASser that he beat this game in 11:07​.21 than mine even though, he didn't completed yet at the end of the final boss. no offense
Q:What's your announcement?? Can you tell it to me?? please!
A: Calm down. At the end of the video.
Q:How many days did you finished this speedrun??
A: It took about 3 days to finished it, plus i'm working with my school projects.
Q: Did you use keyboard or controller to make this TAS?
A: No. I didn't use any keyboards or controllers by making this TAS. I use button frame scrolling tool (I don't know what's called) to make the frames of this game perfectly at the output of the speedrun.
Q: Did you beat the time??
A: Are you blind?? Check the thumbnail, video, everything!!! *sigh I hate myself.
Help. Please don't give negative comments on this. I am depressed. srsly

Ok so a few questions I have here: 1. Does the Japanese version have any benefits over USA besides “bing cool”? 2. What do you mean you didn’t beat Meerkov’s time? Is it slower than his movie?

You know instead of complaining about stuff like saying it's the emulator fault (cause you both use Hawk) you should've just done math.
Level - Time   | Meer | Ryu
Level 1 - 1:40 | 1:24 | 1:24
Level 2 - 1:50 | 0:56 | 0:58
Level 3 - 2:00 | 1:41 | 1:51
Higher is better
Only comparing the first 3 levels you're ahead by 12 seconds.

So how exactly is this different to Meerkov's run? Is it meant to obsolete it or is it a different category? Could you update your submission text to actually be helpful and informative instead of just rambling and hurling insults around for no reason?

I'm trying to help. No offense, but your submission text reads like a troll post, even more so now with this most recent addition. It tells us nothing about the run when we need to understand exactly what it is to be able to judge it. You can't just say things like "Are you blind? Watch the run!" and "BizHawk sucks!" and expect us to have all the information we need. Are you competing with Meerkov's run? Because by all metrics, his is faster than yours overall (trimmed down to final input needed to reach credits, this run is something like 12:28.xx). If your run is 100%, then why are you comparing it to Meerkov's any% run in the first place? They'd be separate categories, not meant to be directly compared. You say that there's something he didn't do during the final boss that you did: What exactly is it? Both runs reach the credits, so I wouldn't have any idea what the difference is that somehow makes his run illegitimate in your eyes. Seriously, we need any kind of information at all. The more you can give, the better.

Decided to complete the comparison cause the author wasn't going to: 12 seconds IGT improvement 'cause of Meerkov killing input early. However excluding that early input this is 10 seconds slower than Meerkov. Edit: Also a Heavy Spike of somewhere between 7840 (cause blank input) to 7606 frames shaved off the author's input, it doesn't splice in Meerkov's work* and it completes the final level instead of ending input early. Fun Fact: Author's TAS actually wasn't adjusted for 2.6.1. It'll sync up to 2.4. *Don't want to splice in Meerkov's work especially with that 12 second lead you have on the previous TAS since it implies that the original input is suboptimal.
