KKKLIP ART posted:Very glad that things are OK enough to do in person. You know that with this being the first in person in a while that they are going to make so much freaking money. They're really... not okay enough to do in person, but we as a culture have just abandoned every effort at acknowledging that, so I can't really blame GDQ for going along with it. Glad to see they've kept the mask and vaccine mandate, hopefully nobody literally dies like at PAX East. But there's nothing we can do about any of that, so I'm down to just enjoy the runs, and Rubiehart is absolutely a delight, great start to the marathon.

I have absolutely no idea what the difference was between successfully completing that trick and the dozen failed attempts before it, but man it looks slick when it works.

I've never played a Kirby game, but I just watched this little puffball turn into a truck and kill God. This franchise is Good, Actually.

I somehow missed that this game even existed, but it's a legitimately great concept for a Pokemon game. They should do another one of these that just shamelessly rips off those high-fidelity hunting games, and lets you wander around a Pokemon region stalking these creatures and trying to get a good picture without them running off / electrocuting you.

Ico's walking animation carrying the rock is hilarious, oh my god Edit: This Ico run is going to be a top recommendation for folks who just want to see a game done fast, with great commentary, but without totally busting a game apart at the seams and rendering it unrecognizable through, say, out-of-bounds shenanigans.

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.

I have a baaaaaad feeling about this run, the energy from the runner and commentator already feels... Odd.

Internet Kraken posted:They don't feel interested in their own run lol Yeah, this is a problem. Bad games work when the runner / commentators are into the badness and they can transmit their enthusiasm to the audience. Even relentlessly making GBS threads on a bad game can work, if you're enjoying mocking it or your suffering is overwrought and comical or induces empathy. Detached sarcasm is... Not great.

Flesnolk posted:I think inbounds was a mistake, this would be a much more fun run as basically a glitch showcase - the any% world record is like two minutes because you can just slip out of the world and wak straight to the fastest ending. In fairness, there's not a lot of crowd noise even when the crowd is packed in, since there's relatively few chairs and they're pretty far back. Not a complaint, the attendance caps and distancing are a token gesture toward the fact that we're still in a pandemic, and I'm heartened by even token gestures at this point.

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.
