holy fuck that 'beam me up' glitch

 

[Bl@de]

That would be Die Hard low%

Ah ok. Missed that.

Keen is great. Fun glitches and CapnClever does awesome commentary

 

[RepairmanJack]

Nice, N and Rayman Legends next. Excited to see those.

 

[G-Fex]

Good Job Capn! Proud to see him at AGDQ running Keen.

Shit I promised him I'd practice E1 of Wolf3D, I need to get on that.

 

[dmr87]

Awesome Nintendo block coming up a bit later, make sure you don't miss Kaizo Mario World.

omg, that is going the be a very stressing run. cant imagine the level of practice someone needs to speedrun it.

 

[hobblygobbly]

Can't wait for I Wanna Be the Boshy run, witwix is a god himself playing that, it's insane. IWBTB runs are always impressive.

Too bad Solgryn's new game Wings of Vi is not run this year, guess it's too new to be run yet but I've seen a few guys on twitch attempting speed runs of it.

 

[Durante]

Those Keen runs were pretty neat. Different tricks in each game, but all amount to skipping most of it

 

[ratcliffja]

So nobody has the IRC chat info? I still can't connect to the twitch chat or GAF chat.

witwix is one of the pretty skilled players who explains the stuff as he goes too. Great runner

 

[RoadHazard]

There's just something so janky, ugly and somewhat terrible about the Commander Keen games next to the console platformers of the time that id attempted to replicate on the PC. But I guess they have their own charm.

Now, N is some great shit. Wasn't there a new one coming to PS4?

 

[LyleLanley]

Guess she really didn't want them to introduce themselves.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Did I hear that right?
"Right now it's a good time to introduce who's on the mic"
*Proceeds to read donations*

I must still be tired..

 

[dmr87]

Dram55 is really good and CarlSagan have been training to try and be competitive so they can have a fun race, both are great speedrunners and commentators overall.

Nice. depending on the time they run it, i'll try to watch. sounds great

 

[CaptainSlow]

Not often I agree with Twitch chat but between this game, the commentators and the sound levels I'm about to fall asl...Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Kind of sad this N run is only of the 1x column. The later levels are goddamn insane and since we're running Boshy soon it's weird that they'd only do the easiest chapter.

 

[Revven]

RAYMAN LEGENDS, BOSHY, AND DKC2

Oh god this... BLOCK IS GONNA BE HYPE.

 

[RoadHazard]

Is Boshy that absolutely insane game where ridiculous shit keeps happening and nobody knows what's going on? Yeah, that was pretty fun last time.

 

[MajinSweet4]

Is Boshy that absolutely insane game where ridiculous shit keeps happening and nobody knows what's going on? Yeah, that was pretty fun last time.

Yeah, and it's extremely difficult.

 

[Escalario]

The hell was Camera-kun doing? >_>

 

[dmr87]

The hell was Camera-kun doing? >_>

Creeper cam working overtime.

 

[Tizoc]

Aren't they gonna start a new save?
Is this gonna be a main game speedrun or are they just gonna speedrun certain stages?

 

[RoadHazard]

So what, are the runners and the main audience in different rooms? Is the audience just watching on a screen? What's even the point to being there then?

 

[Blooddimond]

I guess we're not having a timer? Or is this just warming up?

 

[RepairmanJack]

Well my hype for this "run" has died.

 

[Xeteh]

Holy shit this guy is insanely good.

 

[LyleLanley]

This is a lot more boring than I thought it'd be.

 

[survivor]

So I just tuned in to Rayman, are they not gonna run the game? Why has timer not started yet?

 

[Matush]

What is this? Wasn't this run supposed to be any%? Also no timer?

 

[flowsnake]

So I just tuned in to Rayman, are they not gonna run the game? Why has timer not started yet?

Individual levels.

 

[Xeteh]

So I just tuned in to Rayman, are they not gonna run the game? Why has timer not started yet?

They're doing the timed challenges.

 

[yatesl]

I was hyped for this run.

Turns out the cameraman during set up was so much better.

 

[Starwolf_UK]

So what, are the runners and the main audience in different rooms? Is the audience just watching on a screen? What's even the point to being there then?

Apparently the runners are on a stage.

As for the point of being there. Well If you're running you might as well hang around for a bit.

 

[Escalario]

Repeating the same challenge dozens of times is the definition of FUN.

Spoiler

Please note the sarcasm.

 

[RepairmanJack]

Not really wanting to see quick restarts on every single move until each one is done perfectly.

 

[Matush]

What a trainwreck. SGDQ run was much better.

 

[RoadHazard]

Yeah, but not everyone who's there is running something, right?

 

[sd28821]

glad i didn't buy rayman legends now

 

[Xeteh]

They've done Rayman Legends in so many recent GDQs I guess they wanted to try something different?

As someone who has played this game the speed this guy is going through these challenges is insane. I had no idea a timer makes or breaks the excitement for you guys.

 

[Vampirolol]

So this is a mod? Those moves aren't in my game.

Reset-reset-reset isn't really within the spirit of this marathon, unfortunately. It's really killing the momentum for me.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Doesn't seem like this runner is used to having to commentate a live run because they're fucking up a lot.

 

[yatesl]

glad i didn't buy rayman legends now

Rayman Legends is fantastic.

This is not.

 

[Xeteh]

So this is a mod? Those moves aren't in my game.

No, its the game. I think he's using some program so he can load up the daily/weekly challenges on demand though.

It's not the timer as much as it's trying to achieve something. Them trying to get through the game, or a race, or a set group of levels. Seeing quick restarts to see the best run they can get is kind of where I look for their personal streams or channels. That's more practice than anything it seems to me.

 

[Lulubop]

glad i didn't buy rayman legends now

Stupid thing to say.

 

[JamesSaysRelax]

Wow, the design of this game is fantastic, so is the music

 

[Vampirolol]

No, its the game. I think he's using some program so he can load up the daily/weekly challenges on demand though.

Oh, ok. I didn't rememebr those jump tricks he was doing with the red thing but maybe because I used only Rayman.

This game really shines when you do timed challenges, I remember trying for hours and hours on a single stage.

 

[CaptainSlow]

Thank God that's over.
