Yeah but that's still more interesting; seeing someone make a mistake that costs them a life or a trick that has one shot in working and failing sets them back several minutes is exciting. It's fun seeing risky play, and that doesn't really apply here.


Because positioning the character isn't absolute and small variables will lead to failing the jump or whatever trick you're trying to do. There's no risk at all, this isn't a strange quirky game that's fun to laugh at, there's no glitches or anything that seemingly break the game in humorous ways; this is probably interesting to someone that's played this game but I haven't so I'm not sure what to find entertaining about runs like this.

At least it's over!

I think you're missing part of the whole thing with RNG manip runs, which is it requires them to not gently caress it up over the course of the game. FE seems to be a bit more forgiving with saves/loads and stuff, but if he messed up any of his manips that'd be a level restart at least. When your run requires you to be setting up that crit to kill the boss, failing to get it almost always means he just creams you. Stuff like step counter manips in runs like ff7 fall into this same sort of category.

I'll agree it isn't a high tension breath hold sort of moment, but sort of a medium-high constant tension. There is a lot of risk in these types of runs, but it isn't always as apparent.

yeah far right would probably be just fine letting his weight shift into the pink gal but he's contorting like she's made of lava

That guy on the right is going to need a doctor after this run. 2.5 hours holding that position is going to be hell on his back.
