not looking forward to any runs really because I watch the runners doing actual WR attempts daily, so why would I want to watch some marathon safe strats?

I'm purely in it for the memes and autism.

Look forward to pretty much all of Wednesday and Thursday. Giant NES block.

Mmmh

so when will cosmo finally kill himself?

why would they do it the week of 4th of july?

pretty dumb

Holy shit is this the next Silent Hill?

I haven't watched a speedrunning marathon in years.

Is there anybody left that's still worth watching?

GDQ is ded

good god is that a demon?

Greetings from Germany, enjoying the stream with my wife and her son, was diagnosed with liver cancer, but have beaten it back after extensive chemo therapy. Here's 15 dollars to save the animals.

Wait....THAT'S COSMO???

HAHAHAHAHAHA

I mean, when he started to stream with her nails painted, that was extremely sus as is, but LOL.

She's so beautiful.

>he
>her

shit, sorry, I meant, HIS nails, lmfao

...

Dude should waste all his money to fix his teeth instead of becoming a fag

How did we let it get to this point? I miss Cosmo's comfy OOT/CV64/WW streams.

Can't wait for the cringe compilation to come from these aspies

None because organizers started hating fun some marathons ago.

I don't really like when people think like this but it's basically true.

Speedrunning was only interesting and entertaining for about 18 months (in terms of memes and not the inherent entertainment value of the gameplay).

AGDQ 2013, SGDQ 2013 and most of AGDQ 2014 were the only good things to come out of this garbage.

AGDQ 2013 was a special, beautiful event and none of these are ever going to recapture that magic.

Period.

...

The moment they had a banquet hall in a hotel is the moment it all went to shit. That last one before the swap was starting to border on "No Fun" zone, but after that RIP GDQ fun.

...

>people are having too much fun
>we can't have that!
>NO COSPLAY
>NO TOUHOU, FUCK OFF WITH YOUR NICHE GAMES
>NO CHEERING, SHUT UP AND WATCH
>NO WRONGTHINK ALLOWED

I remember reading about many streamers who were invited to gdq and got their invitations revoked just days before the event, so now they had a non-refundable plane ticket and a hotel booked for nothing.
Apparently, they had said some politically incorrect shit on twitter.

It didn't get more comfy than those CV64 runs. He seemed happy and normal in them too. The commentated ones on youtube are great.

good

hopefully they move onto doing much better things than autistically playing one game and only one game

>Nobody watches speedruns anymore
Go to speedrunslive there's barely a stream at more than a 1000 viewers.

Looks like the worst line up of games ive ever seen, barely anything new, too much Nintendo shit for the 1000th time.

A/SGDQ 2012 were also awesome, certainly better than SGDQ 2014 onwards

No way. This is just a joke right? Most of those guys still speedrun, I'm sure of it.

>ZFG doesn't speedrun anymore
Except he streams OoT 100% almost every day with like 2k viewers.

None. GDQ is dead. There will never be runs as comfy as Adam's runs.

"Speedrunning for charity"?

Go sell waffles and give the profit to charity you fucking cucks.

used to be pretty dope a few years back

>PJ playing some meme game, no timer

I pretty much just watch NESmania if anything now.

>no arcade games

>Caveman is playing a lolige again

He is starting to look like that old guy who danced to Franz Liszt and shit

>NESmania
My nigga, i got sick of watching speedruns but this is usually entertaining depending on the game

what games do you all speedrun?

Can't wait for her speedruns of the new Zelda game!

Sorry im not autistic

none,i'm not autistic

>Adam_ak doesn't stream anymore

The last two have been really shitty but I'll probably just leave them on in the background.

I could never have the patience or willpower to practice the same route nonstop for years just for 5 seconds of internet fame.

It takes a certain level of autism to speedrun.

pastebin.com/TQCY80ZB

narci is an absolute madman

this post is wrong, many of the people listed still speedrun

The fastest I can beat a game is 100%-ing MMX in around an hour and a half in my yearly play through

is cosmo aware of how ugly he is?
probably not

thinking in extremes like this is the true autism

you don't have to stream or go for shaving off fractions of a second in the hopes of getting WR, I just do it for fun and to challenge myself rather than just aimlessly playing a game with no goals.

I like doing time trails in some games but that's pretty much it. Was thinking about speedrunning Alien Soldier at one point.

WTF man he was pretty normal back then. Shit I didn't need to see this, really sucks hearing it like this but I hope he is alright now, or she.

do you think?

>The comfy couch is gone
>The entire comfiness of the event is gone
>It will never be a group of 40 friends in a room again
>It's literally a stage and a crowd now
Where did it all go so wrong

>speedrunning GTAs

the nail cam should have tipped you off

if they don't let us up on the couch in our pajamas this year I'm starting a riot

cosmo didn't look ugly when he was a dude, what went wrong?

Remember few years back when Cosmo did a glitch demonstration run at some marathon, and he was wearing glasses?
People in chat were saying how nice he looked for a change, and it was great to see him like that instead of doing stupid shit on stream.

Why did it come to this?

>cosmo didn't look ugly when he was a dude
disagree

Source?

he looked fine if he didn't smile
honestly, he should have just gotten his teeth fixed instead of ordering lady mones off the internet.

I mean, it didn't because some people are just like that, look at pro player Hai at league, he even dyes his hair pink, has ear pircings and wears wierd shit sometimes and he is drowning in pussy. Besides cosmo had a gf I mean cmon.

if he fixed his teeth and had glasses he could be pretty cute

I mean he'll never be handsome OR pretty but he could've managed some boyish cuteness.

I'm hyped for all the gay we'll have in these threads, like we already do.

The streams are a nice background noise.

How did we go from this...

The event got too big for its own good, and too many people wanted to be in the room as runs were being done.
You can't really reasonably expect 100+ people to be in tiny room to watch small television, so they had to move to bigger one and get projector in. And because of that projector, you can't have the place too light, which resulted in current darker room.
It's a shame, the light room was really great, and you could always make the crowd out. Now they also have the camera zoomed way back, so you can only barely make out the couch crew.

>The tri force
This shit was amazing this was the summary of the old event for me this fucking guy just sitting next to a big glass tri force and polishing it for hours amazing

It's in the schedule

I don't like that location either. I understand they need to handle all the people and stuff but it makes the whole thing feel a lot less intimate.

>What runs are you looking forward to?

None.

...to this?

>something autistic

you can't make this shit up

maximizing profits

who profits and how?

So what is exactly stopping people from making smaller, more laid back events?

Sorry I meant the loli

>RWhiteGoose
What in the fuck happened to him? He just came back at the start of summer for like a week saying he was going go stream a bunch, but just stopped without saying anything.

wait, I thought SGDQ was already going on? isn't that what that Zeldathon thing on twitch is?

Honestly, shitposting in /srg/ during AGDQ is much more fun than actually watching AGDQ.

>Tons of sponsors
>Still can't get proper tech-support, sound and image is regularly messed up
What the fuck are they sponsoring anyway? What are the benefits?

I was hyped on AGDQ 2015, then SGDQ and AGDQ 2016 were boring to me honestly
They really fucked up layout
There is any way to vote to change layout? It'd be cool

No user. That's Zeldathon.

prevent cancer foundation is a "feel-good" charity that does nothing more than print fliers about cancer awareness
that's it

Reminder to eat healthy and get plenty of exercise

god dammit, user

...

>Bonus streams are dead
literally the best part of these things and they kill it off

Better than last GDQ at least.

Guess I'm looking forward to Dishonored/Wolfenstein this half-yea, and the Castlevania block as usual.

I always dislike how they schedule every run that isn't nostalgiababby shit at 1am but what can you do/

they admitted that the sponsors don't give them any money.

there's a reason why the event is ran so poorly compared to any other large event.

>no Jak 3 speedrun
>no Ratchet and Clank UYA
What the hell

>they admitted that the sponsors don't give them any money.

So whats the point then? make "charity" money while the events become less and less enjoyable?

Is that their master plan?
