Free interpretation : Speedy E2M6 UV in 2:11 (PAR=6:00), berserk only,
nice acoustic tricks.
Comments : Tyson is a very special title. Now I fully realize its charm.
I think it's the hardest of all advanced titles (at least,
D1I was much easier to me), because you can't count on luck
and have to demonstrate long-term surviving skills as well
as great patience.
E3M2 : Assigned as easy, but I wouldn't say so. Medium - that's it.
I did it with berserk only. Dance is done after securing
myself at the starting point.
E2M2 : This level is Tyson classics, very funny and easy. So again,
berserk only. Dance is in the alcove with the supercharge.
E2M5 : Not VERY hard one. See how I handle 2 Cacos and 2 Barons
at the beginning. With the last baron, however, I made
a mistake, trying to sic the imps and sargeants on him.
It failed, and my health drained dangerously.
E3M6 : (out of base). "Hard" without reservations! A few mistakes,
and you are dead. This level is infested with cacodemons --
22 of them! Bad thing was I couldn't predict their
behavior when I was going to chainsaw them. There is a point
where my health lowers down to 1%, but I survived it anyway...
E2M6: (free). This is a "speedy" run with berserk only. What's
so special about it? Well, if you try it -- I mean berserk
only -- by just going forth and clearing out your way, you
won't probably do it in PAR. There are three (initially hidden)
compartments with Barons and lots of demons, which open later on,
and you have to have a long fight to get to the exit. But in
this recording, I demonstrate a "tricky" way how to not give
the Barons a chance to hear you. This involves closing some
doors behind and killing certain monsters who could otherwise
persuade you and open those doors. So at the end, all three Barons
are opened but neither is alert, and I walk by them safely!
Dance is at the Berserk pack.
