Couldn't you just like...speed up the video a little bit? I know Minesweeper has accepted versions that record some details and detect cheats, although it's loving minesweeper and if you want to cheat for records you can cheat for records but people have been caught before.

Usually people stream these things live so there's no speeding up any videos, and secondly other people familiar with the game are going to verify and very likely notice if a supposed WR video runs faster than the game normally would

A little disappointed this game doesn't have more walls connected at right angles.

Yeah it's that, basically.

Clearly if the devs didn't intend for these to be solutions, they wouldn't have made the walls so short.

At least theres no 70-400 FPS required tricks from the DLC level to the end.

Nah, speedrunners are hounds for bug forums and stuff, if they spot anything they can maybe use they'll try and replicate it

if there's one thing I've learned recently it's that speedrunners make the best and worst playtesters.

They will find everything in your game that doesn't work. But they'll want you to keep it.

I think a nonzero number of the people there in the audience are just waiting to run games themselves. Or just got done with theirs. Coulda sworn I saw someone get up a bit ago that was part of a run.

Science fiction writers, I am sorry to say, really do not know anything. We can't talk about science, because our knowledge of it is limited and unofficial, and usually our fiction is dreadful.

Well that Talos + DLC speedrun ruled.

And for people saying it's a step above Portal 1/2 in difficulty: yeah, I definitely agree with that. Especially those dang star world puzzles. Look up the stars if you have to (and you'll almost certainly have to), because the star world puzzles will melt your brain (in a good way). And like I said earlier, try to do all of the actual puzzles (not stars) without looking up anything, which I'm still proud of having done, and you'll get way more out of the game too.

EDIT: The philosophy and narrative is more interesting than you'd think in Talos Principle. That part of the game is also good.

EDIT2: The only bad puzzle is Nerve Wracker. gently caress that puzzle, it's the only one in either game that requires dexterity to complete and it's bullshit.

It's by the guy that was originally head of the Skulltag team - a modern multiplayer Doom port - so that's pretty much what it is.

It also was pretty heavily underfunded and the development was messy, so what exists now is pretty much just a shareware episode, with no hint as to when more is getting released.
