I tuned in a couple of times. I saw a Mario Land 2 run, where a guy sang along to the space music in the autoscroll level. People liked it a lot, so he started making lyrics for the other songs too. It was ok.

I saw a person die in Dark Souls 3, a lot, which seemed like not a good run

A guy did diablo 1 but he literally just ran to the bottom of the dungeon as fast as possible skipping every possible thing then spammed a lot of fire walls and won, so that was a thing

Sonic Mania run was really cool but people got way more upset at the fact that the commenter said She than the cool run, so

The singing sucked and almost ruined a good run.

If someone is loud and flashy enough like a Marvel Cinematic Universe film it will entertain the masses effortlessly regardless of their skill or quality. The absolute state of gamers in 2018.

The dude singing was barely audible but it did get old after the first time

Looking through the vods these are the runs I watched and enjoyed

F-Zero GX
Sonic Advance 3
Sonic Adventure 2 race
Sonic Mania
Mega Man X race
MGS1
Mario 3D World
Half Life OF
Most of the 10 minute NES runs
Wario Land 4 (very good)
Yoshi's Island race
Mario Sunshine
Pretty much the entire awful block (Superman 64 through Deadly Towers)
CloudBuilt
Wonder Boy the Dragon's Trap
Mario Galaxy
Super Monkey Ball
Mike Tyson's Punch Out + Super Punch Out 2 games one controller (amazing)
Ocarina of Time hundo
Kirby Canvas Curse
Princess Rescue
Zelda 1 3-way race
LttP randomizer race
SMW race
and the BotW run seems alright so far

Entertaining enough GDQ imo.

I didn't get to watch any of it after day 1 but judging from the thread it was actually a largely miserable GDQ.

It was good. Miserable is inaccurate.

People who watch the VOD of the whole thing and mention it in the donations are the most insane people on earth, to me. Though I would spend about 500 dollars on a Blu Ray box set of every Zeldathon so perhaps I'm the most insane of all.

the clear winner of gdq was the bloodborne run where the guy with the 3 foot beard yelled that the dogs were memeing on him and twitch chat went apeshit at the discovery of their God

Bloodborne meme yeller for the win. Beard crew held it down a solid 2 hours, legit.

Drippy-goo-yay, mother-gunker!
Really glad to hear that AGDQ got hundreds of thousands of dollars in completely anonymous donations, again, to break their record at the last moment, again. So inspiring. Screw all these lovely naysayer “gamers”!

watching botw run now. it's good cuz i haven't watched any of the longer runs of this game before because in the records the runners just stay silent or cuss at everything or do memes with their followers instead of explaining all the poo poo that's happening

there was a run like this with hyperlight drifter where the guy kept clipping through walls to skip tons of things and the lead developer was there, they asked him "So did you intend for the walls to not be real like this?" in the most rotten way and the dev didn't reply and just made this face
