bucksmash posted:I've never seen a GDQ live but looking at older runs on Youtube it looks like SGDQ always takes in less. It's also worth noting that more of the people watching this stream will more likely have experienced cancer in their lives than they would have needed disaster relief. PCF can be more personal for people, and the human brain is a thing that motivates us to give a poo poo about things we experience firsthand.

It's funny, the speedrunners make occasional snide comments about let's players since they're typically bad at games but you put a couple let's players on the couch and the commentary would be better in 90% of the runs. This couch is hilariously antagonistic towards the runner though, which is fine too

bucksmash posted:that's why the AGDQ 2014 Super Metroid race was so good. The race itself was awesome but the commentary was top notch as well. Yeah, it's a combination of being able to explain not just what the runners are doing right NOW, as well as explain how that fits into larger strategies and possible options that the audience can watch for. Good commentary means that you involve the audience in more ACTIVE watching.

Dias posted:Rebirth is a lot more "stable" as a speedrun game, what with seeds and Azazel and all. also they just have to get someone who wasnt a piece of poo poo at BoI like Rayne who couldn't play BoI on a nonpotato computer because it played too fast there are some dudes that go on huge win streaks and its becaues they can be really consistent

That's because Sinister1 was part of that project and he's charismatic as gently caress. His blindfolded Mike Tyson's Punchout run from the same year is another example of this.

Good couches are rare and precious jewels, they should be enshrined at the end of every GDQ in a couch of fame site. Please DKC, save me from this block, my liver.

UV_Catastrophe posted:Glad they found a crowd shot that showcases all four women at the event One of my friends who went to EVO this year took his wife... ... and his infant child. He said when he walked through the crowds with his baby they would part like the red sea. FGC can't handle baby power. I also have a great pic somewhere of him like four or five rows from the front during USF4 finals and his daughter is just completely passed out on his chest, she gave no fucks about the crowd hype
