Man, I haven't seen an Episode 2 run, but if it's anything like Half-Life 2 it's gonna be fun.

Gocnak did a good run of HL2 last year so this has a good chance of being good

HL2Ep2 is a 55 minute Speedrun? Is there not that many skips or am I misremembering the length of that game?

tallying up the tracker donation + the humble bundle pile so far, it looks like the totals are at 1,009,141.28 (as of a few minutes ago.) :woop:

Do they always fall behind? I have the schedule open from a couple of days ago which says they should be doing GTA Vice City right now... And do people in the chat usually freak out over women being on the stream?

It's only about two to three hours long for normally playing, so my guess is that the skips aren't that out of control.

Note that hovering with objects is not "that out of control" for a source engine game.

The last Summer Games Done Quick got absurdly ahead of schedule, but usually they wind up running a bit behind. Not this far behind, but setup issues have been plaguing them even more than normal.

And yes, Twitch chat is terrible about everything.

Yes, they are awful internet nerds who are universally terrible at gaging acceptable human interaction. Just don't bother with the stream chat, honestly.
And there were a bunch of massive setup delays and an extra game thrown in so it's definitely behind.

I think it was last year people were so loving creepy about it that they had to ban the word "girl" (surprise, it didn't work and they just switched to saying 'grill' instead!)

I think the current segmented run is around 43 minutes with loading times not counted? 55 minutes gives a good buffer since a decent bit of the skips in a compiled speedrun like that aren't going to work first time around in a live run.

At least in Episode 2 the maps are usually long enough that it doesn't happen too often.


How the hell are there 45 more minutes, he's already through half of the car section?
