Don't worry. SovietWaffle will save us with his Risk of Rain run.

Nothing ever goes wrong in that game!

Really quite silly indeed.

Yeah, this run is fine. Death or not. At least it's enjoyable to watch. :)

Conga line too strong

This game is harder to play than it looks because you don't have any time to pause and think like in normal roguelikes (unless you play Bard). You have to be constantly reacting and it's extremely easy to accidentally make mistakes. You can't even stand still without a certain item.

Red Dragons are the worst enemies in this game so I can symphatize :v:

Those guys will blast you from fifteen miles away.

This looks like a really fun, really hard game and I need to go play it when I get the chance. Commentary's been fantastic for this run too.

Guess that's why the estimate is 20 minutes. Guy doesn't seem to have practiced this game enough recently.

This isn't as bad as the isaac thing but it seems strange they just let him allocate extra time to restart the run

Just woke up and see this whole mess...any of the late night runs worth watching?

Seems like it's very YMMV based on games you've played/liked. Rogue Legacy seems to be the night's big winner.

Bard is far easier than Cadence so it shouldn't take that long.

Pretty much after the Mario block, I didn't think Fire Emblem for 3 hours was a good idea to watch

Cool thing about that chess boss is that it follows real chess rules, for example if the pawns hit the bottom row they become queen enemies instead.

It's okay though because bard dies a lot in the early game.

Apparently.

To be fair Bard does punish being rushy the most because the speed depends entirely on your own speed. If you want to go super fast the enemies will also go super fast, but it's all under your control.

This game was really enjoyable to watch, but it looks like a really hectic speedrunning game. Procedurally generated levels combined with a fixed tempo seems hard.

The early game is easy and he's playing as the easiest character! But the 1-1 that got generated was very unlucky, as the runner himself mentioned.

I'll buy it when its fully out.

But yeah its one of those games I think to myself that wont ever be finished cause they already have your money.

Going back to watch the Morrowind run. This is one I was most excited for because I've never seen a Main Quest run before.

The fact that this game seems to have a level editor is interesting to me. Do they allow custom beats or are you limited to just what they have in game?
