AGDQ 2017

Salt And Sanctuary was well run, but the Any% takes the cake for how much of a train wreck it got and completely out of the hands of the runner. I was losing it by how much the game refused to cooperate.

Battleclash, the guy sounds like a younger Adilegian. Someone please confirm so I know I’m not crazy.

The current guy on the donation mic is the one that sounds like Adilegian. It’s really throwing me off. :S

~waiting for the katamari run to appear on ytube (tomorrow or so?)~

whatever descent ii is seems incredibly stressful, at least when played this fast

best

i have this game and loved it! i played it for years on Kali as a teenager

i have always been a nerd.

even if you don’t play it, i highly recommend you check out the redbook audio soundtrack because it’s some wild techno-punk (the midi soundtrack is a completely different tone and yes the game had two separate soundtracks because i don’t even know why)

Just sat down to watch this! Happened to catch Half-Life Blue Shift, or Blue Wait, as someone in chat called it. Half-Life games sure have a lot of waiting around for stuff to happen in them.

Next is nuDOOM, which I’m really pumped about

i like some of the newer OOB tech they’ve figured out in new doom

also appreciate that Doomguy still has the ability to press switches through walls. some things never change.

tuning out until KABUKI QUANTUM FIGHTER later

yeah the out of bounds stuff is insane. the invisible walls you have to memorize! half way through the run I was thinking I might not recommend this one because of the jump/boost/skip that didn’t work out for so many tries but then the BFG trick came up and I was laughing so hard. So I do recommend this run if you’ve never seen what kind of crazy skips you can do in nuDOOM. Just don’t expect a lot of gunplay! The skips turn the game into a crazy, psychedelic platformer

i actually didn’t know megaman pause buffering worked in it!

busted out laughing at that one

CHECK clap IT clap OUT clap

man, the awful games block sure is entertaining. highlights so far are Batman Forever and Timecop; very good!

haha Catechumen is hilarious! It’s a Christian FPS, that should tell you everything

jesus man, the Turok run gets my heart pumpin’ and a thumpin’

WATCH IT. Most intense run. The guy is so nervous, the music is fast paced, the movement is… diagonal!!!

It’s one of those runs that if you have played the game before and know how bullshit everything is, it is a lot more impressive.

I was non-plussed. It also didn’t help that I didn’t particularly like the runner either. Still, it is a good recommendation for other people.

Hot Take: 2D Sonics are terrible (live) speed games.

alternate hot take: watching speedruns is one of the only ways i find sonic games enjoyable

alternate alternate hot take: Sonic Adventure is a wonderful game, and speedruns only accentuate its best qualities

My personal highlight of the entire thing so far is Batman taking a chainsaw to his junk

the perfect encapsulation of Batman Forever. HOLD ON

somehow the SONIC block(s) often end up in slots where I can catch them, and that’s cool.
