The first FF4 run (back in 2011) we had the last character was down to about 20 hp and poisoned, but that's the only thing that springs to mind.

hmmm no I think it was 14 or 15 somewhere. Perhaps it wasn't an FF. I will meditate on this.

Out of grim curiosity I've periodically opened the chat window for a few seconds at a time throughout this whole GDC. In the last two days, I cannot think of a single time I've done this without immediately seeing hate targeting my demographic. That is not a loving "pet political issue." I don't expect it to change but gently caress if I'm not going to make fun of how dumb these kids are. When chat isn't throwing edgy jokes around, it's nothing but emotes and prepackaged lines repeated at a rate of 100 idiots/sec. You could not have picked a dumber thing to try to defend.

Oh I get it now, thank you.

Eonwe, in all honestly realest of real talk I like it in VODs if I can see chat instant reaction to the sickest of most epic trickz being pulled off on the first try. But I have a fascination with crowd reactions to insane poo poo though. What do you think?

I only like watching it explode when exciting stuff happens.

It can be useful to grab other's clips now too.

But unless the stream is smaller (beagle rush xcom stream) where you can actually chat and interact. Then no it sucks.

They react to big moments that otherwise would fly over the audience's head to highlight really bad luck a lot, but it's otherwise a chill run. It is good, but still a good time to eat. :burger:

The Bob Ross twitch chat was funny. Otherwise I use livestreamer and never look at it, unless it's some guy with ~20 viewers where its just other reasonable humans you can talk to

It depends on the channel. There are actually some channels with good chat rooms, even though you probably won't believe it.

Charts like this is what I was missing out on not being more active in the thread this time around. I knew there's always a big burst at the end of the week, but I couldn't remember if it was $200,000~ big.

The save vs. kill the animals race always gets some huge last-minute donations. Then there's stuff like the Humble Bundle and other sponsors usually donating their share on the last day, and generally a lot of people saving their donations for the last couple of hours.

I've been watching this with chat all week and I'm honestly baffled how you could get this impression as it's only been an issue that has come up once or twice and even when it does it's just a wall of <message deleted>. 99% of the time twitch chat is a wall of relevant emojis, making fun of the runner screwing up, or making a joke about something a runner/announcer said.

Twitch chat has a memory leak in Chrome which seems to be dependent on the number of messages sent. So, I don't know how anyone keeps it open for any length of time... Maybe I just need more memory.

I've been missing the stream for a bit and last I checked they were around 500K in donations. What caused them to jump up to 900K?

Yeah, it's horrendous here. It actually lags the stream itself too, and that wasn't an issue like, a month ago, so...

Who's the FF dude everyone likes? There are two I always get mixed up, one of the dudes ran this one game I hate called battleblock theater and I hated that run but I liked him doing other things. The other guy (or maybe the same guy I don't know (NO OFFENSE!!)) did an FFV die hard run or something??? I think it was one of those guys who did the run I'm thinking of.

PJ is the BBT guy, also Mecha Richter. I don't think any of them ran FF but I could be wrong.
