Kempo posted:Wait is this a thing? Yeah Some people get too caught up in the game and get extremely angry but tbh chill speedruns are good and if someone is dealing with an extremely frustrating run where they just aren't having any fun then I think it is better to call it quits than to continue to do harm to yourself through playing. Nothing wrong with stopping if you aren't having fun.

my game is honestly not a great game but I have a huge amount of fun with it. I can't imagine putting in the effort to speedrun a game you hate

update on wow race: people who opted for dungeon grinding are going way slower than they thought. an aoe grinding mage might win, which was always a dark horse strategy because people thought it was only viable on the private servers with less advanced mob AI. Currently a hunter is in the lead: this guy https://www.twitch.tv/ahmpy is having fun speedrunning by being awake since monday evening.

You can reset dungeons infinitely I'm pretty certain. This is what <Method> is going because their goal is to get enough classes to raid as quickly as possible and warriors are godawful solo. They will probably be more effective than questing/grinding at the later levels because quests tend to peter out as you get closer to the end, but every dungeon based group seems to be far behind from what I can tell. I doubt they'll catch up. When you have high level players grinding mobs for you it's definitely the fastest strategy. I'm rooting for the hunter questing strat because it's by far the most interesting as a speedgame and if you're into things like RPG routing (my fave type of speedgame) it is pretty fascinating

New Summoning Salt video is dope, but I personally don't like SMB1 speedruns. I don't have a problem with the speedrun itself or anything but frame rules kinda suck

yea i really wish dr. salt would go into more detail on the routing, or the running community and culture or something, rather than just read web.archive.org/speedrun.com for two hours

Imagine him sitting down 60-Minutes style with the reclusive dahoopgawd is pretty funny "So just what is a Super Metroid Full Halfie?" *looks concerned*

I don't have a problem with the speedrun itself or anything but frame rules kinda suck for the longest time i thought they were saying "frame roll" as in it rolled over. wasn't until i watched one of these videos where it said "frame rule" on screen that i got that.

Actually based on the number of people I know who use youtube search to try and find a world record because they don't know what speedrun.com is They're good for the culture.

Some folks also hate SRC enough that they don't upload scores there so the only place to find the actual WR is the title of a youtube video.
