The runner said he won't be talking much (due to him being estonian (?) and having english as his second language) but he's been getting into it pretty well and still gives fun commentary

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
Gunstar Heroes owns so hard, just a shame we never get to see all the various gun mods.

Just came on and possibly my favourite game of all time! Glad to see they're using the official BEST WEAPON IN THE GAME

I've played Gunstar Heroes enough to know that there is a lot of praying involved in Black's Dice Palace. I can almost complete the game on Expert reliably in one shot. I say almost because stage 6 always fucks me up.

It wasn't when I used to pick the run and gun mode instead of the stay in one spot mode!

(That's my fault, shhhhh)

Tbh sometimes I switch to lightsabre just for stage 6, I'm really bad at the (gimmick change spoiler) space section.

Oh Orange last? I normally pick him second or third because Green can be quite brutal on Expert.

Its the best for ryn and gun so long as you dont end up targeting a static object like a crate as it makes you able to easily focus on movement especially during Green's many many phases

I lost my dad to cancer super recently so now I'm just wildly oscillating between having fun times watching streamers go fast and uncontrollably crying.

I like to think in my own small way I'm helping by doing a speedrun of all the emotions.

Sorry for your loss. But, maybe hearing about people having similar stories will help you and watching some people who also have similar experiences do some fun speedruns too.

Thank you, I appreciate this. It has all been quite cathartic so far, if not a little difficult. I'm managing about as well as can be expected, I just needed to verbalise my feelings a little I think. :)

Would getting drunk count as a Tool Assisted Speedrun for doing all the emotions? Hmm...

Five and a half years ago I lost a kid and my father during / just after SGDQ2016; one to brain cancer, the other to multiple sclerosis. poo poo sucks and goons are good. It is okay to not be okay, and it'll get different with time even though it may not seem so now.

Watch some fun games, partake in some energy, send me a PM if you want. Be kind to you.
