DOOM: The Dark Ages - Ultra-Nightmare "Speedrun" - 6:06:57 - but it's cursed... (Full Run)

Absolute Cinema. If you want to know why it was cursed, start at 6:01:30 and check out the run from that point onward, you won't be disappointed :) Highlight video for this run will come later.

My first clear on DOOM: The Dark Ages for Ultra-Nightmare, default sliders, with no usage of glitches and no major combat skips (i.e. restricted rule-set)

Live-streamed on Twitch on May 19th, 2025 from 9:47PM PDT until 4:12AM PDT May 20th, 2025.

My twitch where I will be livestream such runs and routing, etc: https://www.twitch.tv/umbrapenumbra_

Some notes:
- The goal of this run (as can be seen on Livesplit) was "survival%", where the plan was to go with safe strategies, backups, etc, while trying to complete the run quickly in a single sitting; If you would like to follow this route or check out my current WIP guide for Dark Ages Ultra-Nightmare routing, you can find that here (Route #2): https://docs.google.com/document/d/1J1Xb4KjbP6gph8mewxDU3Fes4bG_etq4pRWDMIVLcZM/edit?usp=sharing
- I had Livesplit up to get a reference of how long it would generally take, rather than trying to actively go at full speed, and do risky strategies
- This was my fourth Ultra-Nightmare attempt ever, and my 4th full playthrough of the game. Prior to this, UN attempts had failed on Sentinel Barracks, Siege Part 1, and Spire of Nerathul

Due to the cursed issue and me not locally recording while I was streaming, this would not be submittable to speedrun.com, however, rulesets and categories are still being determined so it doesn't matter anyways. There will be a future run to submit :)

Will help contribute to the 100% routing efforts ongoing from multiple folks like @MMAFRoO , @xamide, @absolutemassive, etc and hope to get a UN 100% speed-run at some point in the near future!

(BTW Thanks @xamide for catching the split issue at 5:29:27!)
