Oh, all bosses includes the dlc too? I didn’t know that, that’s awesome!

yeah, there was a whole "thing" where between submissions and the marathon some DLC came out and the runner wanted to have their time extended and then drama

there's probably a pastebin

Just convince yourself they're cheating and it takes no skill because they don't do it the long way you're familiar with.

I like how, since all the sound is coming out of sayvi's side, the oceiros boss fight for fudgecow was just backed with a hammer on an anvil and menu sounds

The thing was he submitted including the unreleased DLC and time allotted for it and whoever approved his run didn't realize or forgot to come back to him and clarify that wasn't doable, so he practiced for months on a DLC run before someone at GDQ realized and said 'oops you can't run this btw' and he got annoyed about it and decided he didn't want to run it after all since he hadn't practiced non-DLC. Which was a bit childish since he could easily have mastered the non-DLC version again near-perfect before GDQ even with only a month and change of practice or however long it was.

Props to fudge for showing off that damned fight. I died like a million times to him. I'm pretty certain I had more difficulty with him than any individual actual boss

Not that far apart now, also I've never seen this skip in an actual run before just another runner practicing it so I'm excited.

Worth quoting.

And no ESA donation amounts have not rivaled (or probably will) with GDQ and it's kinda pointless to expect that, unless something really strange will happen this year. But I guess every little bit helps like people said earlier.

Nioh is an utterly fantastic game, I love it so much. It was my favourite game of 2017 even though 2017 had so many amazing games!

That was a great race. Fudge did incredibly well catching up from being 7-8 minutes behind. Sayvi is fun and had a solid run too!
