Then imagine what the chairs look like when a long speed run is over.

There's a Path of Exile 2 Act 4 run going right now from Angormus. Pretty cool that it's newish tech - basically wolf form for speed using 2 hander to kill things.

Some of the time saving tech is pretty tryhard, like removing chest armor anytime not fighting a boss.

Lots of big name POE2 streamers in the chat.

Crazy time in PoE2. I take 3 hours for act 1 lol.

Watched the PoE2 section in the bedroom then went to the computer and tuned in. Fiurst thing is some translife shoutout in donations, turned it off again.

Hasnt their donation totals gone in the shitter in the last few years when they went full tranny?

I feel before covid they were raising 3.5mil or so and last few years just over 2mil.

last few years? They went tranny like 10 years ago. I remember when they would do bonus agdq which would go on for several days after, just for the love of the games. But once it became corporate, the bonus stuff disappeared and the trannies popped up everywhere

That and the focus on weird games is what kinda killed it for me. Retro games really drew me in intitially but my guess is going so mainstream killed that

A lot of the retro games are gone and now its mostly newer stuff. The schedule is full of flavor-of-the-month titles - which given their lengths - means they're going to glitch the fuck out of them.

Boring.

GDQ, and speedrunning in general unless you are interested in the game being run, summed up in one word.
*yawn*
Guess if you are a speedrunner yourself you might find these personalityless runners interesting but I don’t. And their puns annoy me.

I dunno in the early years I enjoyed watching runs of old games I had played and knew. Zelda, Mario, Metroid, etc. But there has to be a nostalgia connection.

GDQ years ago was fun, the runners had personalities and made jokes as opposed to just puns and seemed like they were having fun playing the game in front of a crowd as opposed to it just being run #34592.

I can appreciate the pure autism of a speed runner. That said, literally everything about trannies disgusts me so much I can’t listen to or watch anything with mustard holes everywhere. If they’ve had that voice surgery their talking is even worse to listen to than RFK, and seeing them in groups makes me want to physically gag.

No amount of nostalgia comes anywhere close to being able to even slightly soothing my disgust.

If they simply didn't have a "trans lives matter" dono every 5 seconds, I would give it more time (as long as the big beef dress wearing tranny isn't visible), but I can't stomach it.

The only good thing on the IGN youtube channel is the Devs React to ____ speedruns. Usually a lot of fun to watch gamers dismantle the game in front of the developers. Most of them are good sports.
