IM A HEADBANGA

Is the run almost done?
Skulltulas make oot too hard and annoying to 100%Certainly the hardest Zelda to complete ignoring 1000+ collectibles from botw and totkAnd peripheral stuff from ww
>>683821325Only 2 more hours to go.
>>683821325Yep, only 2 more hours to go
>Minions in the olympicsLMAOFucking frogs
>>683821325>no good runs leftdoesnt matter
>>683821325Unironically not even halfway through
>>683821135>original headbanga anon is long goneWhat happened to him?
>>683821360Skulltula tokens are nothing compared to Wind Waker's photographs or Twilight Princess's stupid bugs
>>683821325Not enjoying this new ritualpost
>>683821360I'm so glad I didn't grow up to become a completionist. I have no willpower to do boring chores just for a 100% or an achievement or whatever.
>>683821360I actually did 100% OoT for the first time recently. I thought I did as a kid, but there were some things I never remember doing this time, I think I just had every item as a kid because of Game Shark.It wasn't too bad, I didn't need a guide for them. Particularly because it puts that skultulla icon on the map when you complete the area. The heart pieces were actually harder to find in my opinion, because there's no indication that you actually got every heart piece in the area.
>>683821480Twilight bugs aren't really hard, skulltulas are way worse. I forgot about the photography quest though and yeah that's bad.
When did Anger Foot get added to the schedule and why are they running a game that only came out last month?
>>683821238>VIC: ...
>>683821360At least the reward is irrelevant. 50 Skulltulas is completely doable for a normal person. The Koroks from Breath of the Wild are literally 9x worse.I liked that they reduced them down to two specific areas in Majora's Mask. That was a good solution to having it in the game, but not having it be tedious. When I replayed the recent PC port, I was so fucking mad when I finished the Great Bay skullhouse and didn't know you had to complete it on the first day to get the wallet upgrade.
>>683821629It was originally to be the first game ran but the dude got ill so it got shuffled to the back.
>>683821576>grow up being encouraged to complete shit in school and outside of school>shit bleeds into gaming>still do it despite being a 30+ I wish I could stop. I'm glad I don't force this shit on anyone else.
>>683821565I remember that, the guy said like "I'm voting the for the right-wing political party" on twitter years ago.Like not even some extreme "right-wing" party, just the usual right leaning option all countries have.But he got banned because "someone felt unsafe" fucking unreal
>Guilt-tripping Dampe into not wasting timeFool, that will only make him worse.
8 tries calling it now
>get a rupee>mario coin soundhuh?
>>683821748Pretty cool they didn't kick him out of the event for getting sick and still letting him do the run at a later date.
>>683821697Fucking lol. I hadn't done 100% MM in 20 years, or maybe even never, I forget. I know I got all masks in the past, but doubt I did the skulltula houses as a kid. But I did the exact same fucking thing as you a month ago doing that skulltula house on the PC port. I cannot even fucking believe it still lets you do it for no reward on day 2 or 3 with no warning.
are they close to the end yet?
>>683821951Almost halfway there
>>683821850goodno-one fucking cares what way you're votingstop airing every fucking throwaway thought you have on twitter you fucking retards
Heh....heh....heh.....the evil grave king Dampe....threatened by this kid?
>Your run's success is entirely dependent on Dampe's mercyKneel.
>>683821325Not on your life, my Hindu friend.
>>683821951>>683822037We're on the final boss now.
>>683822037who can stop him?
>Years of optimizing>Tons of new glitches and tricks>complete decompiled>Still have to rely on an old man digging up graves for your WR
>>683821876How'd you know?
>>683822148this category is arbitrary
>>683821876Holy shit you were actually right.
It's like those exploring Nutty Putty Cave videos. I love watching 100% Ocarina runs but would never want to do it myself. Dampe is like the part of the cave where it's so tight that the guy starts wiggling like a worm to get through because he can't move his arms.
>>683822206all the categories are arbitrary
>>683822161>>683822217
>>683822239except any%
>>683822281GET OFF MY BOARD GRAVEKEEPER
>>683822235
I actually hate Dampe way more in MM.
>>683821576I'm not a completionist but if you put a functional missable in a game my autism is piqued.I cannot, for example, play through a Souls Game without getting every single weapon or magic possible even though I barely vary my usage of those in a playthrough and rarely ever even use magic.
But you can call me Dampe the Run Killer. Got a nice ring to it, don'tcha think?
>have stream muted>think its an ugly girl the whole time>unmute stream >its a dude
>>683822487Probably because it's more tedious to move him around, getting a heart from dampe is usually very fast
>>683822487I remember watching my brother try to do the grave-digging thing on the third day when I was a kid and thought it must've been the most difficult thing in the game. When I replayed the game with the PC port recently, it really wasn't that bad. Might've been because of the reversed Song of Time being on, but I don't know. It was a little annoying, because he's fucking slow and requires you to hold his hand, but still.
>>683822607You gay
>>683822607>Make pronouns always visible on screen>Anon still to retarded to read
>>683822607first time watching a speedrun event?
>>683822607It says "he/him" right there, bro.
>miss dampe because I thought it wouldn't be for another hourF
>>683822714because as we all know people's preferred pronouns are indicative of their actual sex.
>>683822749That means nothing here
>>683822751That's might be my fault, if you're one of the anons that asked, sorry. I'm pretty sure it used to be 3 hours in, since Zelda runners are extreme masochists and love losing a run to RNG several hours into a runner.
>>683822607Well, you can't do this to me....
>>683822714>>683822749I never pay attention to that
>>683822798Oh I thought it said cute girl, not ugly girl. Okay, that's fair. Was going to say it's impossible for a cute girl to use he/him, but an ugly girl is definitely possible.
>>683822798>>683822842That's generally only for when it says "she/her". "He/him" is almost always completely obvious.
The inconsistency of hookshotable ladders is honestly some fuck. It definitely played a part in teaching me not to trust things as a kid.
>>683822895I'll never forgive you.
>>683822607"ESA shouldn't have pronouns" niggas go awful quiet when the Swedish men show up
>>683821135
Stream 2 never messed up saying purple burglar alarm...
>>683823136Please forgive!
>purblerfuckpblBANNED
>>683823168Good... Now draw this.
why are irish people
N64 Zelda is insanely comfy
>>683821467Headbanga'd too hard and died
Interesting how he stopped the run to describe how he jerked off several guys at once
anyone else had a crush on the poe seller girl as a kid and yesh she's a girl thats why she's in a dress and showing off her feet
>>683823297fucking lel
>>683823297He communicates so weirdly with his hands
What did they mean by this?
Migging from the baguette Olympics opening ceremony, I had to tap out when FUCKING MINIONS were a prominent segment of its inbetween cinematics
>Pause menu runs at 30 FPS>And file select runs at 60Huh, that makes a lot of sense. Interesting.
>>683822998funny how it’s the opposite on twatter>>683822987>Was going to say it's impossible for a cute girl to use he/himI wish this was the case but too many nerd girls drink the koolaid
>>683823205myrmidon of loss shut up
>>683823515You're just now discovering that France is cringe?
>>683823513I've honestly wondered that for years. But if I were to guess, uhhhhh seggs
>>683823547Those aren't cute.
>>683823513A maid cafe
I just came back what did i miss
>>683823756woman in the audience asked him to stop
>>683823515Now they're having a tranny fashion show.
>>683823297>So the first guy comes and slaps me across the face with his manhood... his balls descend into my vision one after another and all i can do is follow the tastefull curve of his deku stick with my eyes... he then gives me another tap on the cheek to wake me up from my stupor... That's when the Bombschu Dodongo skip came to me
mmm cringe
>>683823809There is a cute girl in the audience. Will history repeat itself?
>>683823513HE MEANS HE COULD FUCK AND SUCK FOR CASH
Another sip
i wonder if he intentionally dehydrated himself all day in preparation. at the rate he's drinking, he'll probably finish that jug.
>>683823919kek
So, what's the type of run this is? It's not glitchless since he's doing little glitches but it's not outright abusing glitches because he didnt just warp to ganon. I know it's at least 100% but is there a name for the type of run?
>>683823515>ESA and the satanic Olympic opening ceremony on one monitor>other monitor divided between this thread and the /sp/ sticky full of Frenchmen mourning the death of their nationI'm comfy as can be
>>683823919lmao
>>683824021no srm?
>>683824021>I know it's at least 100% but is there a name for the type of run?100%.
>>683824021...it's a 100% run anon. get everything in the game by any means necessary and in the fastest way possible. i don't understand what you're confused about.
>>683824021OptimizedHe's doing everything but doing it in an order that is faster than doing them the intended way.
Mirin' the size of this lad's bladder. I'm usually bending the knee as soon as I finish a big jar of water.

How Kino is chrism run gonna be?
>>683824102Big lad, big blad.

>>683824562yeah the worst supper
>kill so brutal they had to censor the stream
SHOUTOUTS TO TECH
bitrate just killed bongo bongo
Bongo Bongo was too strong for the stream bitrate of 64 kb/s.
Bongo bongo had to split to the olympics to be with his fellow demons.

>RIM JOB in donation tracker jej
>>683824928
We Love each other here
>>683825029C'mon, couldn't even give more than $2 for the bit?
Is it ESA tech or is it Twitch when the stream does that weird pixely grey shit?
glorious swedish internet
>still in the first dungeonHow long did it take to route this?
>>683825208100% ESA. Remember to give shoutouts to the tech crew.
>been in the deku tree so long that Link naturally aged 7 yearswow nice speedrun
Here Together
>>683825208it's ESA. i have other streams up and they are fine.
>>683825293How and why? Dodgy wiring?
>>683825362whatever building they're using just has a shit upstream speed. or they're getting throttled. it's probably outside their control but hopefully they pick somewhere that has more stable internet next time oh that's right nvm THIS is the last one
>rimwhale
YORE TOO SLOUGH
>>683825362someone torrenting shit
>>683825492I think they're in the same venue/hotel as usual for the past few events.
>>683825492I don't them remembering ever having this shitty of a stream, yet the venue is still the same as previous years. So either the venue changed their internet for some reason, or it's ESA's fault
I went out and bought plums.I'm going to EAT Plum.
>TASbot slaving away for millennia on supercomputers all to save 17 seconds on an OOT run
>>683825492The audio is unchanged, I'm more inclined to believe the issue is purely on their end. Video drops for just a tiny amount sometime before leaving the building, software hiccup or wonky wire or bad network.
Twinrova.What do you think of her?
>>683826190Sex with evil hags

holy shit dude the ads on ESA have been insane. i have adblocker i don't see them but still>midroll ads for ~2 minutes>~2-5 minutes of no ads>then IMMEDIATELY MORE midroll ads for ~2 minuteslike holy shit. never seen them so aggressive
Decided to go for a walk for an hour. Have I missed anything fun in the run?
sluuuuuurp
>>683826190Did they birth Ganondorf in this form or what
>>683826190Yes.
Has the runner been having these tism spasms the whole run?Does he have some sort of disability?
Nip coomers whacked off to this in 1995 btw.
>someone in the crowd cheered when children are mentioned
>>683826594Based /v/ poster
>batskating backwards around the invisible triggersLove it.
>>683822607Happened to me too bro
Their problem?
>>683826828They REQUIRE whiteboys and their caucasian sperm.
>>683826828not mounted on my face right now
Wait, the guy that is in the front row and keeps donating is called averagegreg? I vaguely recognize that name, wasn't he a decent OoT runner?
>>683826828Femcel's final form. Beware.
>>683826828Not enough BHC.
>>683826828no boys allowed
>>683826828They like Hylian boys.
Just tuned in. When did link become overweight?
>>683826828Unironically that Ganondorf was supposed to be their one sexual relief but he unironically ran off in pursuit of Hylian women so now they are very frustrated.
>>683827063He's ripped under the clothes.
>>683827063links been juicin

>>683826517Welcome back!
Clip bro, snag that spooky mask get
it is just beginning
why was link sniffing that gerudo womans butt
Why did Link just pull that mask out of her ass?
>grabs a mask out her assoh okay
what the hell was that
What the hell is Super Mario 64 Archipelago run?
Hmm, yeah, I understood some of those words.
>>683827565I'd assume a romhack
>>683827279Yeah also not sure, just suddenly remembered the name from some oot speedrun history video but wasn't sure if I remembered correctly
This guy's button mashing is hardcore
>mfw I never did learn how to do the triforce on here
>>683827647that's how he got so JACKED

>>683827647He even has a cloth under the controler to dry his hands.

WOW, female pattern baldness sisters, we need to stay strong

I fucking love Link's gormless face when he gets the light arrows
>>683827805Looks more Link is a cop or TSA agent patting her down
>>683827712same been here since 2011 and I refuse to look it up or ask because it's cheating. the knowledge has to manifest itself into my mind through osmosis or I am unworthy
>>683827805>Back of the knee, maybe
How do I not become bald?
wtf is the poacher's saw??????
>>683827918for the poaching minigame
>>683827916shave it off
>>683827918Dude
>>683827916embrace the bald
>>683827918Think you need to give it back to the carpenter on the bridge to gerudo valley. And then he gives you the next item in the chain
>>683827916you don't.
>>683827916hair drugs but they break your pp
>>683827916...

>>683821467Trying to get a PhD in Physics and thus have less time to HEADBANGApost BANGA
>>683828102imo, only young balding is the issue. I made it to 34 with no significant thinning thankfully, I don't care if I start balding in my 40s. Maybe I'll sing a different tune when I get there. But I know someone my age and he only has pieces left. Hell I saw a kid in high school starting to bald, shitty end of the stick for him.
I looked away and now he's in Gerudo Valley again, I thought he was in Ganon's Castle.
>>683828425Ferrari's Wind bro
>>683828504pungent
>>683828425He was only in Ganon's castle for the gold gauntlets. Then clipped into the loading zone for the inner tower to use farore's wind, which he set at gerudo valley before entering the archery minigame
>>683828182>headbangaposter is more than 20 years younger than meFUCKI'M STILL YOUNGI GREW UP WITH OOT AND WW AND TP AND SS and LA and ALttP and the Capcom games and I was an adult back then actuallyFFFFFFFFFFFFFU
...
If I have never played a Zelda game am I a real gamer? The speedruns always look comfy at least.
nice
>>683828614What did you play as a kid?
>>683828574Don't despair yet anon. I'm 33 and finishing up my PhD, so headbanger could still be a boomer
>Mike Hawkheh
>>683828614You should try them, just start with Link to the Past and Ocarina and go from there.
>>683828574OLDBANGA
>>683828614you owe it to yourself to play the SNES/N64/GCN games at least
>>683828614They're good. Do not interact with average Zelda fans, though.
>>683828614You can start with WW or TP.Ocarina is too janky.
>>683828678NTA but i also never play Zelda as i grew up with a ps2.
>>683828783>Ocarina is too janky.Wrong.

>>683828614Don't worry about it, I've tried several Zeldas (LttP, OoT, WW, TP, SS) and only completed Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks.>>683828905All I can say is that they held my interest more than the other games; nearly finished Skyward Sword but stopped close to the final dungeon. Zelda's never clicked for me the way it does with other people.

>>683828829For some reason I don't get Twitch ads on my phone when I use the Twitch app, otherwise it's OVER for me. PC is fine because I use Firefox and setup an extension ages ago

>>683829062I'm 46 now and the most I've done is do high school and work in a job that requires finishing middle school and gloating at uneducated retards for years now. I've never went for anything other than learning concertina (useless)
Alzheimer's sux :D
fucking hell axel you bastard
>>683829291it was so genuine
>>683829243o-oh
>>683828614Play Minish Cap
>>683829243If you really want to, it's never too late to go back into uni. I saw an old guy when I did my bachelor, and my uncle did an education during the evening. And people often switch jobs, just getting some certs that show that they can do it. Only thing really stopping you is motivation
>>683829129Same. I've only completed spirit tracks, triforce heroes, and the link's awakening remake on switch in one go. It took me three years to finish OoT on 3ds after picking it back up because I had nothing else to play for a bus ride.I've played phantom hourglass, link to the past, minish cap, skyward sword, link between worlds, twilight princess, and maybe a few more, but they never keep my attention to the end.
Bombchu Minigame girl was the first vidya girl to get little me going. Something about that sway.
>>683829129>Zelda's never clicked for me the way it does with other people.I can get that, it's a certain style of game. Some other games also just don't click for me. But still kinda funny that the ones not considered that good did click for you, but maybe it's because they are different that Zelda fans don't consider them that good?
>>683829243dont feel bad anon, im 28 and have done absolutely nothing with my life
>>683829447Forgot to mention link's awakening on the GB, which I played but got stuck not knowing I had to bring the chicken up the mountain and dropped it.
>>683829420I've got fond memories of minish cap. Friends and I would go into the caves with mole claws and we'd "dig through the cheese". We were very easy to entertain back then
Kek he ignored him
>>683828829Just want to bring up exactly 10 minutes has passed and I got another batch of ads.
>>683829501Literally fucking moans in MM too, they knew what they were doing and doubled down.
>>683829291It such a classic, good to see even the newer runners still do it
>>683829567Thanks anon keep keeping us posted.
>>683829291>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ra7lh0c9haI>still falling for an 8+ year old joke

>>683829243You can do retraining courses if theres some program like that in your country. You'd never get me into uni again to waste another 3 years of my life on something i possibly wouldnt even complete.I went to one that was sponsored by the government and now im working as a software dev
>>683828614I've only ever finished OoT, Majora's Mask, Wind Waker, BotW and the gameboy ones. I enjoyed them all thoroughly except Breath of the Wild which I liked in the beginning but got really really bored of it by the end. Every other one I never managed to finish was because I put it down for like 2 weeks and then forgot about it and can't be bothered restarting all over again.
Majora's Mask makes you realize how tedious the whole game it is and makes you like Ocarina of Time a little bit more. It is a speed runners game
>>683829770MM is good but OoT is still king
You CAN do this section with your eyes closed,right?
Who the fuck speedruns an online only game?
>>683829729It's more about the fact they are willing to put 24 ad breaks into this run when they have the ability to run ads whenever they want, like for example, during the 45 minute long intermission sequences.
>>683828783This is the most shit take I have ever seen on /v/ in my entire time on this cesspool. You deserve a ban for posting this, and you're also darker skinned than the king of thieves himself. Fucking nigger.
One last sleep.. See you all for the Josh GTA run.
>>683829994I'll be asleep for at least half of Josh's run, maybe more. Sad.
He looks like he is really trying to let out a big loud burp.
>>683829968Why do you care? You should be using a blocker like everyone else on the internet. Are you stupid?
>>683829770MM is designed to waste your time because the game is like 2 hours long otherwise.And don't hit me with the "it's thematically relevant" shit, it doesn't make it fun.
>>683829517Yeah it's kinda funny given their reputation, although with Spirit Tracks I think it was also the train side of things. Years later and I've turned into a nutter that records the same station webcam day by day.
>>683830059It's the piss welling up within him with a watery vengeance
>>683829994Sleep tight pokaanon
>>683829879Even as a kid, I preferred MM. The atmosphere is great, the reuse of the models was actually cool since it added to the weirdness, the time management even now is rare, and the mask transformations were great. But even still, the only reason I prefer MM is because the great foundation OoT laid. And it's still a great fucking game. So purely for impact, OoT wins
>>683830059Fuck i meant not to*
Reminder that ESA has historically gaslit everyone into thinking they have zero control of the ads despite being sponsored by Twitch, just like GDQ who doesn't have an ad-in-the-middle-of-runs issue.Historically, ESA is when adblockers break and not during GDQ.
Fuck I don't want it to end.
>>683830075I'm not shitting my browser up with twitch specific horseshit that's going to change 6 times throughout the event when I use the site maybe 5 times a year.How often do you use twitch?
>>683830146>Historically, ESA is when adblockers break and not during GDQ.Do you really think ESA is somehow breaking adblockers, retard? First 'meds' post I've had to make all day
>>683830202>i refuse to fix the problem so I will just complain online about itYou have been given the tools and instead of doing anything to fix it you prefer to shit up the threads instead
We have officially passed the WR now.
>>683830128Yeah I still love it. It's a way better way to rehash than TOTK, my god. Six years for that, unbelievable. MM came out so quick after OoT. After six years, I want a new Zelda from the ground up, but all TOTK did was reset the timer, are we waiting twelve years for a brand new Zelda now?
Llanfair is a shithole.
>>683830049same, what a retarded spot they put him on
>>683830284No wr? Man ESA really fell off.
>>683830202You could've just said "yes I am too stupid to install a userscript"
>>683830284what went so wrong?
Will the SM64 'run' be worth it, or should I go to sleep at 5PM to wake up for GTA?
>>683830271>>683830342>ong bro don't know the specific way to block twitch ads this week pure cap bruh frfrYou're a child.
>>683829532>parents force me to study for good grade>get certificates>realise you can only get jobs through connections not qualification in my country>have no connections because parents asian level strict so I could never make friends>become unemployed adult as a result>parents treat me like a slave blackmailing me with being homeless if I don't do as they say for being a failure>save up gibs and move country>find work immediately>able to live at reasonably comfy live>parents still seethe that I barely talk to them and don't understand whyI still feel like a failure but I did well leaving. I ain't going back to school and I ain't going back to my home country.
>>683830097>I've turned into a nutter that records the same station webcam day by day.Okay that now makes sense. Train otaku are one of the most autistic about their hobby, so that is why you were able to finish spirit tracks
>>683830434yes
>>683830434Randomizer meme trash, comfortably ignore and make it up for some GTA kino. I wish I could do the same but it's way too early here to sleep yet.
>>683830434anon...please fix your sleep schedule
>>683830202I use twitch only for ESA and seeing one ad break was enough for me to just fix it instead of putting up with it for the entire week.
>>683830508good job anon
>>683827805Love to see the asschest.
>>683830508nice, what country?
>>683830434>>683830524I hope it's trainwreck like the Elden Ring run
>>683830146I don't care when ESA decides to show their ads. I block all of them.
>>683830508Connections being more important than qualification is true in any country. Getting that first job and working experience is brutal.
>>683830315Yeah I'm still kinda mad about TotK. It's a good game, but it could have been so much more. Either make a new map or reuse the models like MM did. And I expected them to add full dungeons and items.. But instead, they made BotW again but now with lego. The system is cool, but to wait 6 years for that? Don't hate it, but also still haven't been motivated enough to play it either. MM actually felt like a completely different and unique game, TotK is just BotW 1.5.
I dont remember him getting song of storms
>>683830743REMEMBER, FOLKS. DON'T GET GREEDY.
>>683830271I tried using them and it made it worse desu.
So why do the Fire Temple so late?
>>683830892fun run
>>683830892>make a single mistake>get one shotThis is why I don't play soul slopGarbage series of games
>>683830886>learn a song>it's purpleHuh?
>>683830146A few GDQs back it was getting pretty bad with that too, but the peak of that was when Twitch broke their own fucking API midway through a GDQ because they wanted to stop people using stuff like Streamlink.
>>683830892Is this really what From bosses are now?Glad I dropped ER early.
This week has felt slow but maybe its cause I watched ASM too so its all blurring together
>>683831018
>>683830987I think they do a wrong warp after the Volvagia fight that puts them somewhere in Ganon's Tower. Might be horribly wrong.
>>683830987Think because you don't really need anything from it? Hammer is not required, plus the game doesn't even need fire medallion. And I think there is a wrong warp here, but not sure about that.
>>683830892How hard is Malenia?>t. never played a fromsoft game
>>683829717Those were the days
>>683830995>one shotThey were at half health, under leveled, out of healing items, playing 2p1c, forced to use bad gear, made numerous mistakes prior to this moment and then they died. They were about as far from being unfairly one shot as you can get.
>>683830995>>683831070that was more REALLY bad rng than anything. for her to do waterfowl after scarlet aeonia is really rare. i think i've had it happen once in like 20 hours of helping others beat her.
>>683830892They broke up after this.
Is the run after this another randomizer?
>>683831213Hardest boss in the game, mostly because of the attack shown in that webm which is four huge aoe attacks in a row all homing in on you with a big aoe at the end that deal massive damage and are extremely hard to dodge. And if she does it point blank, you're generally dead. She also heals off of any attacks that connect. The rest of her kit is relatively fine, but that one attack is kind of bullshit.
>>683831262>>683831281thanks but im still not playing your shitty games
>>683831398cool, stay seething
>>683830995this was half health VERY underleveled/poor gear because speedrun with zero flasks against the hardest move to deal with in the entire series. You cannot chalk this up to the average souls experience when its the peak of the series' difficulty that was made even harder by the runners' circumstances
>>683831213Hard but fair. If you learn her patterns, have patience and have some decent gear she's not so bad. I mean, Elden Ring is quite possibly the easiest From game of all time if you're happy to use all the tools available to you. You could walk up to Malenia with two friends, a friendly summon, over leveled, over powered and just steamroll the bitch.
>>683831367False. They got back together after he defeated her.
oh shit are we actually going over estimate?
>>683831398Dark Souls 1-3 are good. Bloodborne is OK. Elden Ring is slop.
Getting awfully close to estimate.
>>683831494He cheated on the run, and he cheated on her with Malenia. The run, and the relationship, are invalid.
>>683831494Wholesome!
Damn there goes the bit rate.
>deku nuts flashbanging the stream
>Killing Volvagia breaks the streamWhy does this keep happening. Same thing happened with Bongo Bongo.
>>683831262As an aside, I think those things (disregarding 2p1c of course) are why ER doesn't work.Yeah, in retrospect you can say those things but in the moment, playing the game how the fuck are you supposed to know you're doing it "wrong" when From has marketed their games are "LE SUPER DUPER HARD" since 2011? You get bodied by a boss over and over and over, you're going to think it's just hard because of the reputation and keep slamming your head against a wall.
>>683831510Yeah probably, but pretty close. Think they do wrong warp to collapsing tower, so only needs to kill Ganon. But that takes more than what he has left
>>683831570Was it tool assisted cheating?
>>683821623>Particularly because it puts that skultulla icon on the map when you complete the areaWait what?
Does anyone have Chuck McGill meme as the flare dancer? I can't find it anywhere.

how did they go over? drampa fucked him?
>over estimate in ootthats gotta be the most embarrassing thing ever for a speedrunner
>>683831213aside from whatever else the anons said, she heals on every hit so trying to turtle doesn't work nearly as well on her as on other bosses
OVER
>>683831672Next to the name of the area on the world map, it will have a skulltula next to it. For dungeons, you have to be in the dungeon to see it.
Oh lawd say it with me now!
>>683831213phase 1 is honestly pretty easy, ungabunga meleebabs just can't into disengaging whenever she goes for waterfowl, shes also very respectful with her aggression while her hp is still high, but gets more and more desperate as her hp goes downphase 2 is a bit more difficult but still not that badoverall maybe like 7.5/10 difficultyshes also just a really fucking fun boss to duel
I don't recall any major fuckups either, was the estimate just way too tight?
I want Plum juice right off her source
it's over
>>6838318278th try Dampe, so yes partly but not fully. And still 20 min over his PB, so kinda surprising
>>683831880His PB is 3:45:00 so I don't think so.
>>683831880A couple things, I think. First of all, I believe most Ocarina runs start after the first cutscene, he showed the first cutscene anyway. That's true for any%, not sure if 100% has that rule now. Then bad Dampe luck.
>>683831968for a 4 hour run, 20 minutes isn't a huge leewayLots of a small fuckups can easily make up that time
I GOT TWO WORDS FOR YOU

>>683832063A

>>683832063S
>zfg's last submitted runs are from 3 and 4 years ago
>>683832063SHighly technical run did pretty solid. It's amazing someone can remember how to do all that shit and consistently pull off all of these glitches.
>>683829717People have been saying "it's over" for 8 years?
>>683832063B for a bara lumberjack cosplaying Link
i stole the trifirce
>>683832063A even though overestimatejust a solid, good run
>>683832063AVery impressive to see how everything works with this run. It's insane how much needs to be memorized. Such a small overestimate is basically nothing.
>>683832063I'm doin' him an A
>>683832063SReally impressive and technical run with good commentary
>>683832063AClassic run.
>>683832063A, this is the speedrun that /v/ always wants. You got an WR runner, only lost the WR 4 days ago. You got a second place runner of a different category as commentator. It was a classic game, not some last year released trash. The run was full of tricks and glitches, but not obnoxious ones like non-stop OOB. Only thing preventing an S is the overestimate. And some people are probably going to vote it low despite all this because it was long and it was 2 minutes over
>>683832176his no logic randomizer runs where he breaks the game in half are more entertaining
>>683832186>zoomers just realising they didn't invent the english language
>>683832176I just want him back, man. The randomizers are fun, but I want my boy going for records again.
Why are they talking about stream 2 when they don't use it anymore?
>>683831641Because you have so many different tools available to you. A big part of the game is adapting to any boss that makes you eat shit. I fought a boss in the DLC that spanked me so I changed weapons, changed equipment, tried different magics and so on until something stuck. Shit if you want to win just summon someone. The game respects your capacity for adaptation, and they want you to know this; at the start of Elden Ring there's a twat of a boss in the first area that you're not supposed to beat. The game is telling you to go away, get stronger, come back and win. I don't care what the Namco Bandai marketing departments say when the devs are telling you directly what to do via game design.
>overestimate>higher than a CHuh?
>>683832323Stream 2 is making a comeback 2025 trust the plan
>>683832293>And some people are probably going to vote it low despite all this because it was longThis is meAny run over an hour cannot score higher than a C, sorry
>>683831860Huh. NHatever noticed that. That does make it more doable. Guess i will try for an honest 100% attempt someday.
>>683832063I missed the first hour, did Dampe screw him over? If so, A
>>683832358He pulled off many technical and frame perfect tricks and was only over estimate a few minutes in a 4 hour run.
>zoomers didn't even touch the 3ds versionJesus
>>683832063D
>>683832430then he shouldve raised the estimate to compensate?
>>683831860>portuguese
>>683832358shut up retard. there's so much uncertainty especially in a 4 hour run
>>683832358If the run is overestimate but enjoyable overall i will only knock off a single grade
>>683832497then he should've compensated accordingly?
>>683832358He was barely over estimate in a 4 hour, extremely technical speedrun. If you go try doing those bomb hovers, infinite sword glitches, slide glitches, etc yourself you'll realize how fucking annoying they are just do to once much less consistently. Not to mention how much other shit he had to memorize and execute.
>>683832491It's what popped up on Google images. I swear Google goes out of its way to give you the image you want with one flaw.
HOLY MOGGED

>>683832384I normally laugh at people getting mad at ratings, but it does bother me a little. You're disregarding all the knowledge and skill of performing all those tricks, plus keeping focus for multiple hours and knowing the entire route, just because it is longer than some arbitrary limit. Now that I have replied to you, I kinda got it off my chest so I can now go back to laughing at people getting mad at ratings.

>>683832672Let me posit it this to you anon - this is a speedrun marathon, allowing runners to showcase their skills, talents and obscure games they run to thousands of people around the worldThen some fuccboi comes in and clogs up 4 hours with a Zelda gameNot only is it boring to watch for viewers since it it's just a lot of same shit for hours on end, anyone who didn't catch the start is going to be completely lost because they aren't going to explain the same tricks over and over again, and lots of people are probably going to miss the end since they actually have shit to do in their life. I'd also make the argument that lots of other runners would love to get their runs in instead, but ESA is full of drama and lots of people pulled out so they're probably actually trying to pad the time with lots of long slow runs.It's just a crappy experience all round for everyone who isn't autistically watching the full event.

>>683833050First, thanks for explaining your stance. I do get now why you employ a time limit, not just because lmao long runs=boring. However, if it's a speedrun marathon, then it should be able to showcase every type of speedrun. And 100% runs are an important category, often just behind any% in popularity. So excluding a massive part of the speedrun community just to slightly improve watchability is something I feel you shouldn't do. And viewers do know the schedule beforehand, so they should be able to decide whether they have time to watch the run or not. Like how I'm now skipping the mario run, because I don't like randomizers. And not like you have to full understand the run to enjoy it, you can just casually watch it and see how it gets broken. And if you want to know the details, then watch the vod. I do agree that long runs are perfect on stream 2, but they killed that so what can you do.
im gonna be honest. i dont know how to pronounce archipelago

The problem is all the classic speedgames have pretty much hit their peak potential, it's pure execution now.At lot of the fun of speedrunning for people who don't really give a shit about speedrunning is developing tech and WR back and forths, which we aren't really seeing much of anymore.This is why they feel like they need to gimmick up all the classic runs.
>>683834115Chartecker stopped doing it since no one gave him (You)s.
>>683833676>I do agree that long runs are perfect on stream 2, but they killed that so what can you do.Yeah, I would pretty much retract my entire post if that was the case since there would be an alternative, although even when it WAS alive ESA somehow often put long-ass runs on both, but they've never been able to schedule properly.

So once he gets the long jump he can just BLJ to the end right? Or does he have to get everything before he can fight Bowser?
I drew a plum and then deleted it.
>>683834198They always had one day where two long runs would overlap because of the event dinner.
>>683834196Why do you keep saying this?
>>683834328Nobody knows what the rules are except for the runner. We're watching Calvinball.
someone else bakefalling asleep
>>683834193I wouldn't even mind these gimmicks so much if they were even properly explainedA lot of them just put "AMOGKT% - No extra Falaffels + random gognoks", explain it at the beginning of the run then anyone who joins 5 minutes late has no idea what the fuck is happening. This one is fairly intuitive with the on-screen UI at least.
>>683834283this is the latest
>>683834328They said a bit earlier that they have to get 70 stars. If it were as simple as getting long jump, the estimate would likely be a way lower.
>>683834435no, time to die
>>683834374Safe to say they don't have enough people for that
>>683834442>AMOGKT%sus
Is it true what they say about Plum?
This whole ability lockout thing seems pointless, you can clearly speedrun the game without any of that shit, he's doing it right now.
>>683833050>anyone who didn't catch the start is going to be completely lost because they aren't going to explain the same tricks over and over againJoke's on you I watched the entire run and had no clue what was happening most of the time.Truth is these things are enjoyable even if they only explain the surface level details or you miss some of it, you're still gonna feel the intensity of some tricks and the crowd going ooooooooAnd honestly trying to figure out how shit might work for yourself is also kind of fun, many kinds of tricks work similarly across games.
>>683834479
>>683833971Imho longer speedruns should be on Stream 2 because if you don't care for a speedrun that takes 4+ hours then it sucks. Like the inevitable POKEYMAN run that will always appear and always be boring. The FFXIV "run" was fun (as someone who doesn't even care about MMO's or the series) but if that was ALL they had then it would've been a trainwreck. Most of the runs I've enjoyed this event have been around 45 to 90 minutes. There are plenty of bad runs that are short too but it's easy enough to sit them out in the thread.But then again I actually enjoy RTS speedruns
>>683834198Honestly, stream 2 solved so many issues. You would be happy if they put the long runs on stream 2, people who dislike some gimmicky run can leave stream 1 and still have something to watch. And people who love comfy JRPG runs are free to enjoy them without the how do you speedrun a jrpg complainers. But they killed it, fucking idiots. The alternative is to put those long runs during the night, like ASM did. But lmao they also killed the 24h. So I'm happy we at least still get the long run, but I do now understand why you wouldn't rate it that high. Honestly, considering your stance, I actually find having the highest be a C pretty generous. That is a passing grade, which I'm perfectly happy with considering your argument that they shouldn't even do long runs. So again, thanks for explaining why.

A-press less run when?
I had no idea ben shapiro was a speedrunner
>>683834918>stream 2 run staying up for 72 hours for the BitFS skippure kino
>>683834918It's already begun. Just gotta build enough speed.
Bake. I'm not asking.
Trans pride samus?
>a whole bunch of faggotry for the final dayyay
>>683834651They could still put interesting shorter runs on stream 2, because does it really matter if you watch stream 1 or escape to 2 when they do a long run? Think important that there is a balance of short and long runs, where you can switch if something currently doesn't interest you. Now if you get a long run, you're stuck with it for 4 hours. Or if you get a short run, you go do something else and may miss several runs. >But then again I actually enjoy RTS speedrunsHoly shit you actual monster, how can you? I kinda lose track of RTS runs as a non-player, since they jump all over the place and cheese with specific strats that are hard to explain in the short time. But I do enjoy watching some korean Starcraft, so I do kinda get why you like them
That Metroid/Zelda run tomorrow not be any less watchable
>>683835221I'm going to skip it. I still don't get why those games are even combined. It's neat seeing that they can do it, but it's two completely different genres and viewpoint. Once you get over this, it's just two games stapled together. At least the MM and OoT combi makes sense. And then the trans shit makes it even worse, going to be pure GDQ shit
>>683835221>those skin incentives>one is obviously going to win>will probably end up with donations about it for the entire runMore like trans blights.
>>683835375Also it's a co-op randomiser. So the runners have to spend the whole time making shorthand comms nobody else will understand.
>Buff Kirby slowly gaining momentumI can only imagine the glorious tlou2 or bathroom memes if it beats the prideshit skin

>>683832584>>683835742I hate normalfags
>>683835550Yeah, I even forgot about the co-op. Which honestly sucks even more, because it is just a randomiser but made worse. The only reason to watch a randomiser is to watch someone use their game knowledge and trying to break the game to win, but that is not going
>>683835823At home, by myself

>>683835205I think Stream 2 should be the JRPG and such stream but it doesn't really matter honestly. The bigger issue is the lack of alternatives, which didn't use to be a problem. As for missing multiple shorter runs, I think that's just part of life. I've missed an assload of runs this year because it's not 24H and like most Euros I do stuff during the day. So I get the 6pm to midnight runs and that's about it. Then when I do get to catch some runs live it's 6 hours of LotR: Third Age + evil mode bonus run or 4 hours of OoT. Both perfectly competent runs but FUCK me.And I guess RTS runs can be overwhelming but they tend to have a lot of cool AI manipulation tech. I play a lot of RTS games so they're fun for me, plus they tend to be like an hour long so if you haven't played Red Alert 2 then it's not a huge ordeal to sit through.
>>683835868Didn't you know drinking until you blackout every weekend is totally normal behavior when you're with friends but alcoholism if you're alone?
