Speedrunning Thread (Take 2) - GOTTA GO FAST

[Blood Bath & Beyond]

-snip-

Looks like he's heading for a channel ban according to this recent Apollo Legend video. He seems like a massive twat though and he could actually be good lolcow material judging by what seems to be his vastly negative history and general reactions to everything.

 

[A shitty ass clover]

Caveira's channel is gone btw.

It's GDQ time again. Right of the bat, they're already making fools of themselves:

They now included pronouns for the runners and commentators.

No, I didn't meant to screenshot this while there's also a transgender character on-screen. Speaking of which, multiple people have already been banned in the chat during the brief moments I checked for misgendering Vivian, the transgender character I mentioned.

man, i remember when gdq was fun, and you could watch people have fun playing games they knew. now it feels like its more about being pc and woke than it is about playing games for fun

 

[whatever I feel like]

Its not GDQ, just a side event. Also they never mention the gender stuff in the English version, sucks for the cucks who got banned.

What do they ban you for calling Vivian a she or he either way the entire thing sounds even more expectional since is a fictional character not even real. By the way does anyone have any recommend speed running events to see so I can play one in the background ?

RPG limit break has been doing this for a while for their races. I suspect it’s performative, but if it somehow does help people compete on an even playing field, then I think it’s a good thing.

Based on their own (purported) morality, doesn’t this require GDQ to update all their vods whenever someone changes their gender identity?

 

[Big Meaty Claws]

Remember when GDQ was just about completing a game as fast as possible while having fun watching it

Remember when GDQ gave no shits about being politically correct and not being so politically charged that doing anything that they didn't like got you banned, regardless if you were a chat member, or a runner themselves

Remember when GDQ wasn't run by people who are just at this point trying to make a quick buck, and run off with it under the pretense of it going to charity

I remember, and I miss it so much

Yes. Many clips involving the speedrunner Cosmo were re-edited to including his new trans name, and that includes superimposing it over any onscreen mentions of his name, even after Cosmo maliciously hijacked their websites. I have zero reason to believe they wouldn't do the same to anybody else.

Now, I want to learn to speedrun a game, get accepted at a gas event, and every year change my gender and harass gdq until they update the video.

I'll never understand why they write both the subjective and objective pronoun. Doesn't it follow from one that the other would match? are there any he/her or she/him people out there? Can I hit them with a brick?

It's there primarily as a formatting thing - because you've got people using pronouns that most people don't know and/or are entirely made up.

Like Xie/Xir or Bun/Bunself or whatever the fuck.

I've seen him/they before. I don't get it, but it happens.

Because their primal logic keeps them from writing (WOMAN), as they know they're men in garter, and writing "He" might as well be a gamertag.

Just kill GDQ

 

[BubbleButt]

GDQx is like a vestigial twin and about as smart.

 

[Pissmaster]

At this point I'll watch a speedrun of anything if the runner has a normal fucking voice

BotW? I loved Breath of the Wild! Let's just see how he doe-nope, not listening to that voice for an hour.

Has a genuine woman ever done a speedrun at GDQ?

 

[A Ghost]

combined that with him running a made up category and hacking the game it was a real shit show the only intersting thing was the mods in the chat freaking out because people were missgendering them(they ended up putting chat in sub only mode )

I want to say yes, but I can't for the life of me recall any specifically. If there were any at all, it would have been from earlier GDQs before the community starting trooning out.

What? That sounds like a complete shit show, have a link so I can test out a hazmat suit?

 

[whatever I feel like]

Aside from the aforementioned Dark Souls girl, they've had one running oldschool Tomb Raider a few times.
