Walkthroughs for custom maps.

It sounds like "if you cheat a little, it's okay."

But it's written exactly the opposite. Hyperbole is an exaggeration, an excess. We're here to try and achieve the maximum result, so if we use any method, we use it to the fullest – and don't limit ourselves to just cases where "I only need it once." A simple example is the same bug that allows you to take artifacts from another map. We exaggerate – we place a Paragon with a quest sphere – the result is a victory in 111 days. Which, in my opinion, is absurd; there's no challenge or interesting task in it.
We can generalize – bugs with the tent, color change, and artifacts are all of the same nature: a bug with variables that haven't been reset. The method of "manipulating scenarios before starting a map" is not for me, because in the case of hyperbole, we get the simplest Walkthrough in 1 day.

At the same time, the quick bug doesn't turn everything into an absurdity. Its application is limited and requires game resources; its own nuances and changes in priorities appear. And if you apply it to the example of Limes, the task remains very difficult and complex. I repeat, it's clear that this is a bug, and in some official competition, it would definitely be banned and not used. But for an experiment, what it still gives in terms of results – why not? Just today, I was reading an article by a former athlete: "It's important to find motivation so as not to degrade." Motivation is also a resource that needs to be valued, including that of others.

Even if I complete it and get the maximum that can be achieved under normal conditions, it won't be interesting to anyone, and no one will appreciate it. If I complete the map in 100 days (conditionally), people will just shake their heads and say: "What are you trying to tell us? Sanyassh completed Paragon in 7 days; go learn how to play."

That's a weak argument. If people understand the issue, they won't say that. And if they don't understand, do you even care about their opinion? And most likely, they'll say, "He's just playing his games; he should go earn some money." By the way, the topic of speedrunning Paragon under normal conditions is still of interest to people.
