Ah, I see I stand corrected. I still think I liked the earlier set-ups better, even with this one looking all professional and stuff.

Also easy mode speed-runs aren't very exciting...

 

[tedtropy]

Phew man, this guy is getting marathon luck-ed. Just play through the map normally at this point. Would be fun to try some of the out of bounds stuff on the PS4 version. Probably just soft-lock or been patched out.

 

[Red Arremer]

There's a lot of smaller marathons, still. Some are even just for fun.

Depends on the game of course, but in most cases, playing on higher difficulties would make runs a lot less exciting, since most higher difficulty levels just have more enemies with higher health.

 

[SmartWaffles]

Caught up to the Wolfenstein run, 15 minutes left and he is gonna finish the rest of the game?

EDIT: WELP never doubt speedrunners lol.

 

[TheChits]

I'd like to see a New Order run

 

[ScribbleD]

Here we go. Frictional's HPL2 engine got busted wide open with the quickness, curious to see how busted Soma is running on HPL3.

 

[Blizzard]

Well, this escalated quickly.

 

[ScribbleD]

Christ almighty.

 

[8BitsAtATime]

Hahahaha what happened here.

 

[Spinosaurus]

I turn on the stream and all I see is a flying fire extinguisher

 

[Blizzard]

They're apparently using an older version of the game to avoid patches that fixed some bug(s).

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

I turn on the stream and all I see is a flying fire extinguisher

Better, a flying fire extinguisher apparently having an existential crisis.

 

[Metroidvania]

This is amazing, lol

 

[8BitsAtATime]

Gotta Go Fast and Clip on Through

 

[Miniboss1232]

The complete destruction of this game is amazing to watch, haha!

 

[Blizzard]

I think I'm enjoying watching this more than I would playing the game.

 

[toddhunter]

I think I'm enjoying watching this more than I would playing the game.

I had to stop watching because I might want to play it one day. All I'm waiting for is a proper apology for a machine for pigs.

 

[Magnet_Man]

Soma Run AKA "I must go now. My planet needs me."

*grabs fire extinguisher*

 

[SJRB]

This SOMA run is really awesome.

 

[Forerunner]

This has been one of the better runs, good stuff.

 

[Magnet_Man]

Short version of the Soma run:

 

[SJRB]

Simon really is a dolt isn't he?

 

[Delio]

Wow Soma run was really good. Glad I decided to watch it.

 

[8BitsAtATime]

I loved this run sadly I don't think these dudes will be back. Some of the things the got away with saying lol. "I've got to fist this" "Prepare Your Anus"

 

[Sn4ke_911]

lool

 

[Blizzard]

Also something like "Don't fight it, you know you like it".

 

[JNT]

The devs will be reaching out to you personally shortly.

 

[Blizzard]

That couch looks so comfy now. I want a comforter too.

Not from the same team i believe.

 

[CassSept]

Phew, busy time at work. Any interesting runs during the first three days? Anything worth checking out?

 

[Blizzard]

Ugh, SOMA was fine but I feel like this would give me motion sickness even watching. The jumping and side-to-side wiggling is nauseating.

 

[Red Arremer]

Phew, busy time at work. Any interesting runs during the first three days? Anything worth checking out?

I haven't seen a lot of the event so far, but Transformers Devastation and Battleblock Theater were fantastic. I also liked Spelunky quite a lot.
I wasn't very interested in Half-Life 2 or SOMA, but those 2 runs were quite entertaining.

Sadly missed Axiom Verge.

Ooh, this Battleblock Theater run is only 1.5 hour, I still get to see the previous year's one which was apparently very entertaining but 3 hours is A LOT. What about Metroid Fusion or Necrodancer runs, how were they?

I didn't see Fusion, sadly (it's on my bucket list), and I only saw the tail end of Necrodancer (which is a game I haven't played, but the run was pretty good from what I saw).
Last year's BBT was 100%, this one is any%.

 

[Blizzard]

I see "A Machine for Pigs" does have the title (minus the Amnesia part) in the dialogue.

 

[Metroidvania]

Chat is cracking me up with the emoticons, lmao.

Cool to see Outlast being broken, I remember giving it a shot and stopping at the 3rd chapter or so.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

This game is awesome.

 

[LeonSPBR]

SOMA and Outlast were pretty good.

Amnesia A Machine for Pigs was okay, but I don't talk much about it since I hate that game.

 

[VariantX]

Someone jumped the gun a few seconds too soon and froze the clock before the runner made it to the door

It happens. Doesn't matter anyway, it's not like that was a WR run.

 

[Blizzard]

I love that old Prince of Persia title screen music. ;_;

~BRODERBUND~

 

[Novum_Veritas]

Prince of Persia, so good

 

[Shuggananas]

Even then it's just a timer it doesn't matter one bit

 

[Blizzard]

I always wished you could reach the left side of that level through a glitch or secret, where the mirror prince drops you down.

Haha at the runner being puzzled about the falling death for 2-3 times in a row.

 

[SJRB]

This PoP run is cool. It's unfortunate the room is asleep, or maybe even vacant.

 

[Blizzard]

3-6 a.m. is pretty rough. Cool game, and I do remember it being tough.

 

[Bandersnatch1]

Prince of Persia was awesome, best run I've seen yet.

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

I love that old Prince of Persia title screen music. ;_;

~BRODERBUND~

It's sooooooooo good.

still remember it coming out of my amstrad 8086 speaker 25 years ago. <3

 

[Diablohead]

OG prince of persia is such a good game, I could never beat it as a kid.

 

[Veldin]

Is this memes? it's memes
