Obviously less than a third of the way through the playlist this isn't really an ironman/roguelike run. Why are streamers like this?

I was always more of a Bronzeman player. You know the one that lets you restart missions but no mid mission saving. I've fucked up too many Ironman runs just by misclicking or something.

Go back and stay there faggot.

I was watching the video

who will hold them accountable?
as few people who care that they played a video game even fewer care that they save scummed
>>
>>730906951
It's disingenuous though. They could have played a completionist impossible difficulty with normal reloading allowed and left it at that.
I guess the reason to throw "ironman" in there even though it is not really is to be clickbait.

>>730907606
no, you're right the guy is misrepresenting what he's doing either to trick others or because he has no dignity. it's gross and tacky and you are right to deny him further views

Go back to where? YouTube? Fuck up, newfag.

Why? Are you dumb?

>>730908310
OP is valid and PETE failed to meet his stated goals. Remind you of anyone?

petebros are we going to accept this slander

>>730906385
I guess his ironman run petered out.

>watching a mangs ironman of a sacred stones randomizer and enjoying the run
>lord dies at like ch15
>kinda want him to keep playing anyway
>he honors the ironman and ends the run
was kinda disappointed but also respect

Dawg I heard playing turn based autism simulators wasn't enough of a massive waste of time for you so just watch someone else play them instead

>>730906385
it's really weird that I've recently seen the same person and have come to the same conclusion.
It's not much better in the sequel series, he encounters the bug that doesn't remove the detection radius from destroyed alert towers and he "installs a mod" to remove it.
The only mod I've seen only works if you destroy the tower after the mod is installed, it isn't retroactive. He immediately attacks a group of enemies in a bizarre order, using the Armor shredding unit to kill an unarmored enemy and it "luckily" crits, the shots at the armored enemy not missing a single time despite being the questionable shot chances
To anyone who has played these games more than once, his cheating is really obvious

xcom is casual bullshit. you must be a insanely retarded soulbab to think its an autism sim.
>>
>>730906525
Being able to reload when XCom jank happens is too nice to pass up, I still remember units falling through the map in EU. Really I wouldn't recommend the in-game Ironman setting to anyone unless they were going for cheevos, better to just decide for yourself when it's appropriate to save or reload.

Cheating in sports, gaming, life, etc. historically is extremely beneficial and it hasn't been until recent years where its easily detected and even when caught the negative is seldom ever greater than the benefits. Hell look at Majorleague baseball, like all people in the hall of fame had taken PEDs.

Reality is if you aren't blatantly cheating in front of everyone you aren't winning in life.

>>730909142
It's the video game equivalent of shuffling a deck of cards and sorting it over and over. A mindless chore that only someone with autism OCD or a similar mental illness would play. Autism isn't a superpower it's a type of retardation.

Wow, this thread is dogshit.
