One of the given reasons for doing this was that people would just grind out the hat. It saves 8 minutes so it's going to save time even if it takes you 2 minutes to grind out the hat. Using the mod eliminates the grinding time. It's not that 98% of runs are just dead when they get to that point. It's that 98% of runs have to waste a varying amount of time getting the hat.

FirstAidKite posted:https://www.speedrun.com/Myst/run/yw1jp69z Looks like it was spliced around 10:25, since he switches from Classic movement to Freeroam without entering the menu. Or does the game do that to you automatically when you enter that area? edit: ok I'm assuming the latter since the same thing happens on a revisit McFrugal fucked around with this message at 18:51 on Apr 11, 2018 |

Captain Invictus posted:I love the names speedrunners come up with for things. Looks like the null sprite attaches to the next sprite that animates passively, and then the animation offset overflows with certain sprites(or the animation for the barrier bot is special).

flatluigi posted:yeah, make a 'no major glitches' category and put all the big ridiculous stuff that lets you circumvent most of the game in it, then let the regular run be the game mostly as intended with small tricks and strats allowed I think that's backwards.

Wouldn't it be more reasonable to have a 99% category that leaves out the stupid two-week item? Or is there stuff locked behind it?

How about a category without item evolutions included at all? No waiting = good.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lI62Gf7bc3c Terraria: Expert Mode all bosses in 1h24m, UNSEEDED. This is impressive, and possibly a little sad considering how many runs this must've taken to pull off.

Yeah it's good now. Just don't play Expert, it's not really balanced for single player unless you're so good you can dodge literally everything and are well versed in constructing arenas for fighting bosses.

I usually just hide the chat whenever I watch Twitch streams, so I don't mind that it's heavily moderated. Is the moderation working though? Is the GDQ chat clean enough to be worth watching nowadays?

I recently realized the first Wizardry is an NES game and that means TMR must have beaten it. Did he do it without a guide or any hints at all? If so that's fairly impressive. Did he draw maps? You kindof have to for some floors... I could watch his videos for it but I want to beat it myself (though, I'm going to play the super famicom version).

ullerrm posted:He took some hints for Wizardry, I think, and it still took him over ten hours. (TMR got rid of the "no guides/hints" rule around two years into the series, although he still kept it very limited.) Might and Magic for NES was such bullshit. Walk out of town, get attacked by locusts, get party wiped by them because they do 255 damage and go faster than you, plus every time one of your characters dies you lose your turn.

An exact quote on this issue is "If gone too far, this could lead to runs feeling identical and ultimately boring with little variety and interest".

If there is no indication otherwise that grav is like this, then there's no way they're gonna kick him out because of it. It would mean anyone can fake some discord snaps and frame someone to get them kicked out. edit: CJacobs posted:Someone poke KevinDDR to come forward because he is the least offensive person featured in those screenshots imo. Oh I guess they could try to get a second witness, sure. edit2: DoctorWhat posted:It's not the specific case that makes me furious, it's the way GDQ has established their policy. Uhhh, grav didn't say anything with violent intent in those snaps anyway. The fact that they investigated at all says that they might have done something, as well.

DoctorWhat posted:Transphobia is, in and of itself a declaration of violent intent, especially when framed sexually. Look up the "trans panic defense" sometime. No, it CAN drive people to violence. Like, there are a lot of racists. Not all of them are violent. Same thing with transphobia and homophobia. Have you heard the term "casual racism"? Someone using a slur doesn't mean they wanna beat people up.
