The entire front page of /r/speedrun is universally complaining about sub only mode, banned emotes, no fun, etc. It's as though anyone who doesn't care or disagrees with that stuff being a problem has left to find a more positive community. This poo poo's not even being downvoted anymore. Anyone who naively hops into the subreddit hoping for some quick info/discussion on AGDQ is going to be bombarded by outrage and probably influenced by it too. i think (hope) most people are smart enough not to take reddit seriously about anything

It's all arguing and circlejerking around the lack of crowd cam and non-sub chat. Goddamn reddit is awful. also this run is not good

The Lobster posted:I played video games when I was little and I'm a girl but I've come to find out I had a VERY accepting social group and not just for West Virginia. But I have no interest in speedrunning them; my thing is collecting as many as I can like some kind of dragon with a hoard. oh yeah obviously i'm not saying no little girls play/played video games, just that it's a factor to keep in mind as to why amab women might be more inclined to get into speedruns of super nintendo games

It's weird hearing everyone hating on inFamous so much; it's not world beating, but it's a perfectly fun video game. As a speedgame, though, wow.

I think the runner is doing a pretty good job of trying to keep it interesting at least. Sucks she picked a not-great game to run.

I mean, there are plenty of reasons to critique this run, it's not a very fun speedgame, runner is clearly nervous and the couch is dead as a dodo.

Wow I'm really surprised by how many people were lukewarm or straight didn't like the inFAMOUS games. I loving loved them. This speedrun is still very slow, though. I can't imagine how much poo poo it must be getting on other sites. ETA: After taking a moment to look at Twitch chat all I see are <message deleted>'s and people spamming poo poo about Spaghet so that seems like a fun place to be.

I'm sure the movement the runner is doing is really impressive and hard, but it's the sort of game where if you haven't played it yourself you can't really tell

Not as bad as some of the Assassin Creeds but you can only do so much collectible and region clearing before you get sick of it.

Did the InFAMOUS games sell well? I mean I know they made four so there was obviously a market. I never played any but I think I got one for free once from Sony.

Also 4 games in the series and they couldn't make a human hand shooting elemental attacks look remotely cool

Infamous story was really dumb but the second game really made up for it. Not to mention Zeke who is Cole's best friend, ends up being way better character in 2. They just really suck at the combat part of the game though.

The first game and Second Son sold about 3 million, Infamous 2 sold just under 2 million, so they did pretty well.
