How do you feel about speedruns/speedrunning events, Slash V?

It might just be me, but the events themselves actually seem really comfy. Sure, they seem like they are full of awkward losers, but that's part of the charm. Everyones a degenerate and there's no need to try and put on some facade of being a cool dude or some shit. Something about sitting in a room watching someone do well at a videogame and just chilling with people really jives my jimmes with joy.

I'd never speedrun anything myself though. I can't even fathom how people get as good as they do, let alone beat games quickly myself.

Oh come on guys, I'd like to know. Is it just me who feels like they would be comfy?

Speedrunning is the most degenerate act man has ever come up with

It may be degenerate, but don't you think that makes it kinda fun?

I don't always wanna be a normie, or even acceptable. At times, I just wanna leg go, and be a degenerate with other people. You know, experience the degeneracy together.

Plus, all the cringey moments like chibi in tomba 2 and the "can you stop" girl are just bonuses and are hilarious.

I like live speedruns with detailed informative commentary.

So I hate most speedruns.

>detailed informative commentary
>in a speedrun
>asking for DETAILED and INFORMATIVE commentary
>in a SPEEDrun

what the fuck man

if the speedrun is good then there's not going to be any time for that shit.

>Cutscenes
>Voiced over commentary
>Caster who is also experienced in the game to explain the mechanic while running

Plenty of time for shit-tier bantz and cheesy jokes, though.

Ever heard of a commentator?

Name 5 examples of speedruns that do this.

not because I don't believe you but because I want to see them

>not speedrunning a slow game to see if you can break the "greetings from Germany" record

After the donation fiasco during the Undertale finale i'm out.

Let them launder money all you want but i won't be part of this shit.

Explain

Most gdq runs have a commentator, a small number of them provide decent commentary.

Hey guys I'll be speed running poop on a gay guy for commodore 64 at this gdq! I play for 20 hours a day, sleep for 4 hours, then smoke crack and take my estrogen and continue playing for 20 more hours every single day. My run should last about 12 and a half hours long (15 hrs is the world record but i think i can beat it lol) and my transgender wife, our bull, and my wife's pants-shitting, severely, dangerously autistic son that she adopted out of a dumpster will be on the couch during the run. My wife will also be speedrunning Cuck World (an indie game with almost over 10 downloads!) while riding the bull's cock while I stand behind and rub my wife's head and massage her shoulders while crying tears of joy dressed inside of my fursuit, which was an idea suggested by the gdq staff in order to show progression and the world our cuck culture, but last but not least, to kick cancer's butt! The run will be around 45 hours long and immediately after each run, someone will come up and sniff the chair.

I like speedrunning as an event but there's a lot of pointless commercialism surrounding it.

Speedruns are boring per se. GDQ was fun and comfy the first few times, but now it feels pretty much always the same.

GDQ used to be cool.. but then they got all weird.

Most of the people at GDQ dont even have record times anymore theyre just the most politically and socially aligned personalities who were invited to the event.

its a performance of popular youtube and twitch personalities now, only remotely about the speedruns.

It's very commercialized. Look at stuff from 2012/13 and compare it to the last few years. It has no soul now.

>someone will come up and sniff the chair
post the webm

I think speedrunners are cool because they like videogames and I like videogames but they probably like them more.

i like watching speedruns but GQD has way too big a stick up their ass

need to focus more on speedrunning and less on donation whoring

cringe is the best part

I would really prefer if all of you would be quiet.

Can't say I really enjoy them aside from a couple of neat tricks here and there since I get no satisfaction from seeing a game rushed.

>this will never happen at an agdq again
why even live?

I love watching them, it's just a shame AGDQ gets worse every year.
