Yoo lets go!! Save the animals!!!
It's really not good.
The sound levels aren't good either. It's hard to even hear the commentator.
BEHEMOTH DA GAWD
I'm rooting for him if only for his sole survivor run last time. I'm not all that hyped about a 100% run to be honest though.
It's very low energy. There was a time when it literally sounded like ESPN commentators going back and forth, it was awesome.
This isn't awesome.

this year has felt a bit low energy in general tbh.

Holy crap, money doubled in less than 24 hours... The last day is always the biggest... But what the heck happened!?

It really does. Whoever has been talking the most is very low energy and seems to stop himself a lot. For as packed as the room is and as crazy as the donation counter is going, you'd think this would be one of the most energetic races. Bummer in that regard.
SpikeVegeta or someone needs to jump in there and hype everything up.
seems fine here. maybe refresh?

He needs to run in and do another push up.

To be fair, the defeaning silence from the audio is from the super aggressive gating on the mics.

Usually I'm glued to this for the entire week, but I found myself just sort of... not interested.
I don't know why. Maybe it's the commentary? The runs between 7-10 EST, when I have a chance to watch just didn't really interest me that much this time around.
He wasn't against speedrunning it at all. He didn't want it in a GDQ because he didn't want spoilers out there. He's okay with it now because it's been out for like a year and a half at this point.

despite all the donations.
Still so close between saving the animals and saving the frames again

Toby wasn't against people speedrunning it, he was just really paranoid about people being spoiled on the game. That's why he requested they wait a year to put it in GDQ, so that people would have time to play it themselves first.

Cool.
Ok, that makes a little bit more sense. That little snippet in the TGH interview was the first I'd heard of it.

Toby coming in hot.
The Souls community in general, or the Souls speedrunning community? Two very different beasts there.
Edited in "Pretty fucking disgraceful stuff said from parts of souls speed community today." to clarify, sorry!

I'm planning on making a thread sometime in the next couple days on this with guides (in general and popular games) and links to some of the best streamers. Last year I started working on Mega Man Legends myself, so was hyped when BlueMetal did it this year.
