no music, no commentary, just the whine of a dirtbike, truly this is zen speedrun

I like this post. It changed my whole view of this run and helped me reach a relaxed and calm state of mind while listening to the wind and slight patter of rain outside of my window.

Every single year the Ivy League takes a break from fucking up the world through its various alumni to fuck up everyone's bracket instead.
actually, I think it's a great idea to have some really stupidly long runs in the GDQ, just not on a main screen. put them on a side screen and then you can check in on them during the longer setup breaks, and post the whole VOD after.

I mean, if the commentary existed was better and they explained why these levels are interesting/hard, maybe I could get into this, some of those jumps look difficult but I have no idea if they are.

It's like Stepmania but less offensive to my ears and less outright impressive.

This would honestly be better if the guy next to the runner would take the runners' hints and speak without being prompted

anyone who's played Trials: is there a soundtrack? do they just have it turned off because it'd be too clippy as they clear levels so fast?

This is why I don't mind motormouthes, more often than not the couch sits there with their hands on their balls instead of saying anything, so I prefer a very active commentator and if anyone else has something to say, start asserting yourself.

since they're all user created content prob not since people would be adding all sorts of non kosher licensed music.

Hey UA I'm curious now - do GDQ vids ever get hit with copyright claims/takedowns? I imagine one playthrough of Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 would get the entire channel shut down.

I guess custom levels don't have soundtracks because you have to make it yourself?
