You know, couch is cool. I'm cool with couch.

The energy of the last ~15 minutes kinda picked up. Run ended better than it started. Still not the best, but not the worst.

What should my expectations be when watching SGDQ runs?
oh i just mean that, FNAF lore is such a giant subject that people do multi-hour videos on it on youtube (which you couldn't pay me to watch). it'd be like trying to explain the kingdom hearts timeline in an hour to someone who's never heard of the game, but that someone is the viewer

there are literally 9 mainline FNAF games and 5 spinoff games

I hope the Charles Entertainment Cheese corporate headquarters sees SGDQ and they put out a Sneak King level quality game.

youtuber MatPat (i'm just googling this, i didn't have this info in the back of my brain) has 57 videos about FNAF lore and theorycrafting, totalling over 19 hours of runtime. They have a combined 41.4 million views

"I have never played this game, outside of the one casual playthrough I did[...]" I think I have a different conception of what "never played this game" means.

i don't recall being able to move this fast back when I played Outlast

the game wasn't super scary but it did look nice at the time. i think i was starting to get tired of "people with mental health issues SURE ARE CWAZY!!!!" but i liked the camcorder aspect

There's a lot of screen tearing going on and it's messing with me and I'm resisting the urge to yell out that they need to turn on vsync, but, they need to turn on vsync.

i think i'm not super easily scared by games. soma was pretty scary but in an existential way. outlast is just sort of a themed haunted house, and that can be fun, but it doesn't terrify me especially with how tropey it is

i think if I had played Siren or Siren 2 as a kid I would've been pretty spooked because of the way faces were rendered and the crushing atmosphere of that game

Since it's going to lifesaving charity instead of Mike Uyama's 17th yacht or 3rd Met Gala ticket, I'm a lot more sympathetic. It does start to border on hubris though

Charity is just what liberals use to excuse capitalism's failures so in that way it's even worse.

Reading back on the posts it seems like the hunt for FNAF incentive went as well as I expected. Maybe the incentive limits have been a bit too greedy lately, or in this case overestimated how much the game interests people. (haven't seen the actual run)

Watching a bit on Phasmophobia it probably should've been just Brossentia's screen instead of 4 separate ones. I have played the game a fair bit and it still seems confusing as hell to follow. Really dig the game though so I'll check the VOD for sure.

Omori is a game I keep meaning to play, so I'll have to bail on the live stream for tonight. VOD time! Any highlights from last night between Warden and Super Castlevania?

That's a block I need to VOD as well, but at least the Blaster Master race was pretty good.

OMORI seems like it'll be a story-heavy RPG with lots of FEELS so I think I'll VOD something from last night for now.

It looked like he was playing on a console that had the NES playchoice 10 palette which is a lot more vibrant than other options.

Re: the Blaster Master run, I hope this isn't impolite to ask, but does anyone know the name of the minor speech impediment davidtki seems to have? I ask because one of the kids I do volunteer work with has something similar, and I've been reluctant to ask because he's self-conscious about it.

re: watching the Phasmophobia run, how does it seem like for someone who doesn't play the game? I feel like Brossentia is explaining it pretty well but then he has to stop and actually play the game

I loved the part where Brossentia died and tried to communicate by throwing objects. I tried to do that in my own games but others never understood the signals.

The tools of a hero mean nothing without a solid core.

I'm pretty sure this gets asked every time an incentive feels too big, but who picks those? I assume the runner does for modifier incentives on their run (glitch showcase, blindfold final boss, stuff like that) but when it's a whole game to schedule around?

According to the submission page, the runners can volunteer any modifier incentives after the game has been accepted but before the schedule has been posted. Backup and Bonus games are decided by the committee but it doesn't provide any details about how they pick those.

All the dollar amounts are set by GDQ.

Greak's been fine, but I'm really looking forward to Infernax, just did my own playthrough and can't wait to see it done somewhat faster

Interesting stuff like Majuu Ou and Earnest Evans to name a few coming later this afternoon.
