Him completely failing isn't what I'm talking about. I'd rather watch someone fuck up when they're speedrunning the actual game. He fucked up at glitching out and modding the game. Not exactly an impressive or entertaining speedrun, which is supposed to be the point I thought.

I paid good money for this Dynex!
I still think the TASBot segment is boring as shit and misses the point.
Game crashed.

Man, I feel for Bubbles. From the dead crowd in his fantastic Batman Arkham City run to this now. I mean we all know DS3(or any souls really) is an absolute shitshow on the PC.
e: I should emphasis that I meant when they first released, haven't followed news about the games on PC since then.

Well I'm enjoying this more despite the issues. So ok.

As far as I know none of the big souls runners submitted to GDQ, so you can't blame GDQ for not having them. That said it's odd that they accepted a run that is pretty disliked by most people (any% tear drop) from a runner that's not on the leaderboards. Luckily he's a pretty funny guy so that saves it to some extent. But I'm sad that this and the BB run have given souls running a bad name on the big stage, they're really good speed games overall.
he seems so deflated now. Hopefully his luck improves.

Wait, there was an Arkham City run? WTF
Just checked the schedule, 3:39 AM.. No wonder I missed that one, heh.
DS2 and 3 are completely fine on PC. The game crashing when he's on unintended location doesn't really make it a shitshow.
Same dude. guy handled the situation just now really well though.
How so? Sure, Dark Souls is a bad port but was followed by two excellent ports.

Maybe they are now but they certainly weren't when they first released.
It's a great run, recommend you check it out.
Yea, yes they were. All I remember was the Bon Fire bug at launch of DS.
I wouldn't say DS3 is completely fine on PC. I've had hard locks and crashes that aren't resolved by specifically giving DS3 access to more RAM and turning lighting to low.

Not really a common issue. I don't doubt you've had that, but I've played the game for 110 hours on Steam and had maybe 2 crashes? I don't glitch though.
I don't think you can call the port unstable when the dude is literally invisible and clipping through walls.
That was like week one, and definitely not a "shitshow"

So was it an Nvidia problem then? Because I knew a few people who got into problems who owned a specific Nvidia GTX card(forgot which number though)
I mean the dude did some insane shit in Batman Arkham City(PC) and that game didn't crash once so...
I will say that I was probably overblown with my statement though so, yeah.
At launch I couldn't play the game. well I could but for some reason the game started dropping to single frames every few seconds. Was fixed by reinstalling xbox 360 cotrnoller drivers, took me a week or two to figure that out :/

"This isn't 2016, we're not gonna die."
Okay, a year of blaming a year was worth that.

He did an out-of-bounds trick and is running around below the game's geometry.
I'm talking about now as in a recent as of last week, not at launch. Luckily it hasn't happened at any crucial moments but is very frustrating since there doesn't seem to be a solution.
So many comments like this like you guys haven't noticed they don't always have the crowd coming through the mics.

The out of bounds stuff was the only interesting part of this run so far.
They can't just "get" people. People have to submit. If Lobos doesn't submit a run to GDQ then the game/run isn't going to happen.
Yea man, they should kidnap him and force him to run bro

Each time I look at the Soul of Cinder, I just think of Gwyn but with more weapons.
I mean, Gwyn's theme does play for phase 2.

I would like to know why AGDQ picked the worst category from all the submitted stuff. Maybe they saw the estimate and picked the shortest run. All bosses is so much better and you don't do the game crashing stuff.
