Nah, a lot of the weird poo poo on older games are due to programmers having to hack things together on crappy hardware and with extremely limited memory.
Some of the solutions they came up with are actually quite impressive.

I've never played MQ, but it doesn't look that much different.

Honestly though, he's probably going far too fast for me to notice the differences so :shrug:

I wonder what we'd all be doing if programmers back in the day hadn't had to do weird poo poo to get around technical limitations, thus causing all these glitches to be possible?

Probably playing the games fast through a combination of speed and skill?

My favorite part of this run is that some dude's leg on the couch blends in with the runner's jacket.

So it looks like the runner has his hand on his hip the entire time while playing the game 1 handed.

I'm drunk and thought this for a while. I just thought ZFG was really smug.

It really looked like his arm on a 720p TV while watching from a distance.

So there was some discussion about the Expansion Pak an hour or so ago, and I want to point out that all of those games that were made possible because the DK64 team couldn't be arsed to fix the 4MB version of the game from inexplicably crashing all of the time for no reason.

Naturally the Conker team were rather...angry, ish, over having to compete against the Banjo/Dream and DK64. I think the team put it best in their own commentary, which is kind of humanizing. And brilliant, even with the fact that the gameplay is literally drunken camcorder footage.

Didn't this glitch where he climbs the fence out of bounds above the ceiling originally get discovered accidentally by some guy doing a blindfolded playthrough of OoT? If the speedrunners didn't know about it before and they're using it now, that's pretty cool.

I know OoT is always good, but is Majora's Mask anywhere near as good? Haven't seen it at AGDQ before.
