isn't it 2 hours since there is an hour block for daily recap?

I thought the recap was like, 15 minutes? (+whatever extra time they need to shill in FNAF :sun:)

I could care less about FNAF as a game series but I still threw a dono at it because more GDQ is always good, regardless of the game quality.

The daily recap is only ~15 minutes. They might stretch it out a bit but not to a whole hour.

you right, i was looking at the overlay wrong.

Recap block can streeeeeeeeeetch if needed, the did it on the final night of AGDQ.

Kinda weird how this FNAF incentive has stalled, though. Only added like $4k over the course of Vice City.

I will find it extremely funny is a FNAF game run is the first thing to not be met at a GDQ.

I am so tired of that trash.

Its nowhere near the first game run not to be met. As of 2020 there were 77 incentives not met from 2011-2020

I'm sure someone has the info for more recent years.

They recently fixed most/all of the glitches with a patch. Which is a shame, the glitches were the fun part of the game

You can always browse through the official site: https://gamesdonequick.com/tracker/bids/AGDQ2021

At least since AGDQ 2021 we've had a handful of failed incentives, generally gimmick runs or difficulty upgrades. I haven't had time to look for any whole games that failed though.

Oats is one of the world's best Super Metroid players, was one of the first people to actually beat Kaizo without savestates, and has been grinding the absolute poo poo out of Kaizo SM since it got accepted into GDQ. His WR run has 4 deaths, and he had a run a few days before that with only 1. Oats ran a similar romhack (Super Metroid Impossible) a few years ago and it was pretty entertaining, so vOv

WAH

I have no doubt that oatsingoats is good at super metroid, but that specific rom hack isn't interesting to watch. Impossible was a great run, lotta entertainment there, plus it has animals to save.

The Kaizo Metroid run will be fun because oats is doing it (and without his insanely annoying chat)

I don’t think the FNAF audience has much overlap with GDQ audience just yet, but it’s likely to be met anyway

Username/post combo is very powerful.

Also, it's the same problem that esports with five different perspectives have: no way to create the kind of focus required for a legible narrative. And this is why Starcraft Brood War is the best esport :colbert:

This seems like an interesting game to play exactly once with friends. But I'm finding the speedrun to be pretty unintelligible, even by speedrun standards.

yeah thats why they tend to have spectators controlling the camera to at least give some focus to the match.

Starcraft is a pretty fun e-sport tho.

The first house was really chaotic, it feels like they're finding their groove as the game continues. That said if I didn't know anything about this game it'd probably be a nightmare.

Speaking of, what difficulty are they playing on?

Yeah I know nothing about this game and gave up watching because I just cannot tell what is happening, they really needed to actually explain things. Good chaotic energy though.

Same. But that means 3/4 of the screen is a bit wasted, :eng99:

I can't really tell what's going on with this game. He keeps interrupting himself to play the game, which I get. This would probably have been better with a couch person who wasn't playing, to explain things.

if you're seeing the lights flicker and stuff, then the ghost is manifesting.

if the front door isn't closed then it's just an event and spookums territory

if the front door is closed, its out for blood

but you're not going to get a lot of ghost dodging on the smaller maps

maybe the last one with Willow Street

they sometimes do. id recommend bobvids' VODs with voidburger, damehasclass/chipcheezum and tomatograndpa, as they are all bad at the game but highly entertaining (also Bob has the VR version which is even jankier so there are a lot of shenanigans)

Looks like professional, which is next to the highest level of difficulty. The most difficult level only gives you two pieces of evidence, so you have to infer the ghost type based on their behavior

I've never seen this game before so this is very close to incomprehensible but I did enjoy the part where two of the runners died and had to communicate by throwing stuff in the van.

e: is there a voice recognition thing going on where they have to ask certain questions or is it just "any sound" counts as talking to the ghost?

Oh, that is really cool.

I did not understand more than maybe thirty seconds of this run but it was cool to watch.

e: yeah I agree that maybe having somebody who wasn't playing to do the commentary might have helped to explain what in the world is going on
