Awesome Games Done Quick 2016 - 2019

I'm getting a sick pleasure from watching this guy die repeatedly to Bloodborne speed run.

I said it at the beginning of AGDQ, but I'm still really disapointed they didn't do a Super Metroid Zelda 3 randomizer race. If you've never seen it, check out SMZ3 on YouTube. Andy does quite a few on twitch along with zoast, Ivan, Alucard, etc...

Basically they randomized both games together with portals between the two games at four set location. So you could find the hookshot after killing Kraid, or missiles after killing Blind. It gives a good challenge for casuals like me.

SMZ3 races are my new favorite thing to watch on Twitch. They are incredibly fun to watch. The Speedgaming Twitch channels have multiple races during the week so it shouldn't be too difficult to catch one.

Funny SMZ3 story I heard related to GDQ was the surprise tiebreaker race they had last Saturday. Evidently, no one specified that the tiebreaker would happen before GDQ so Andy was already in MD for the event when he found out. He had his SNES setup but obviously not his streaming equipment so he had to record the randomizer playthrough via phone. There was a technical snag in that the phone only recorded up to 22 minutes of video at a time and he ended up having 9 videos to send in to the admins since that rando seed went 3h+.

Did you watch the ultimate doom speedrun? He died over and over in some of the episode 4 levels

but yeah, out of bounds glitches and save&exit cheese is exactly not what I want to see when I want to see good players play well...

The I wanna kill.thr kamilla or whatever game before LTTP.was the WORST speedrun I've seen in awhile. Guy died a million times, went over time, and had to load saves at the boss because he kept dying

Yeah celeste was great. Glad the commentator hated the stupid orb meme

Speedrun milestone reached in Super Metroid — but it’s not a world record

Zoast broke into 27 minutes in-game time on super metroid on his twitch last night, didn't get world record though, missed by 5 seconds.

as boring as a 9.5 hour "speed run", where for well over an hour, probably 2 hours; they memed about eiffel 65 which made it borderline unwatchable. The blindfolded menuing from the FF9 run was actually impressive lol

I'm currently playing Nier Automata and have the speedrun of the game open on my PC and watch up to the point I'm at, its insane that they get through an area in like 3 mins that takes me an hour

reddit has a full list of all the runs, i'll watch a few that interest me. click the YT (Youtube) links since the twitch links are just part of the entire 7 day stream or whatever. The YT links aren't up yet for the last 24 hours or so of runs but i'm sure it'll be edited in this week

Apparently the guy who puts the runs on youTube is sick so it should take a few.

Picked up AIDS from the trannies?

I don't know why you got a thumbs down, it's a legitimate question. One can only hope they'll die off swiftly. Either from aids or from growing out of it

Okay I’m starting to change my opinion. I went down the speed running tranny rabbit hole after watching a VOD and the guy who used to run Metroid Prime, Miles, is now a she and every other tweet is about how they have boobs now and how great they are and I just don’t get it. It’s like how I imagine a guy who becomes a girl for a day and spends it fingering themselves just to see what it feels like but constantly tweets about it. Except this is real life.

Evidently, there was some drama over one of the FF8 runners being disallowed 24 hours after the accepted list came out, so all of the runners pulled out. They did a writeup for how retarded the process is


Obligatory shitfest reddit thread:


Update: GDQ asking them to come back, "We're sorry!"

Starts tomorrow
