Oh man, as someone who's been incredibly slowly clawing my way through Octopath Traveler since it came out and is convinced it's the slowest game ever made by humans at this point the idea of someone playing it quickly is hard to fathom.
I made a PADHerder. It's probably out of date though.

And SGDQ will be Bloomington, MN as last year; likely in the Doubletree again. As always I'd really like to attend since it's so close to me but probably won't be able to :c


Anyone have any underlooked yet good runs they'd recommend?

Bloody Wolf, Monkey King, Ninja Five-O, and Kamilia 2 were all lesser known games and great to watch.

Oh, hey, I was there and forgot to mention it! I'm in the yellow-and-black Can-Am jacket with all the racing logos, up front during the Sonic block and screwing around during the Medal of Honor Airborne run. That being said, my recommendations for runs would be Sonic block, uh, Medal of Honor Airborne... I promise it's not just a list of ones where I'm visible! Home Alone 2 is definitely an underrated one I was glad to see live, Aria of Sorrow was surprisingly consistently captivating, Tomb Raider II and Angel of Darkness have my bias already but I thought they were fun times (especially seeing as AoD handily comes pre-broken, which the couch explains in increasingly mystifying detail, and TRII has some clutch moments), Virtual Hydlide... hurt (I had the misfortune of seeing that live because my mom has a copy for the Saturn; she expressed horror and insisted her copy HAD to look better than that or she couldn't have possibly ever played it. A fair warning that it will literally hurt your eyes), and the Metal Gear runs were pretty fun.

Okay, gotta mention that censoring gets pretty ridiculous this time. Now the runners have to try to censor stuff in M-rated games. (Seriously, "damn" is too harsh nowadays, seriously?) How about they just drop games that don't fit their "family-firendly" rating altogether? Or better yet, how about they stop pretending like there's any point to that? Or do they WANT to turn the event into an even bigger laughingstock?

You do realize that their popularity and ability to generate charitable donations has gone up, not down, and continues to grow every year?  Whatever they're doing is working, and they're only a "laughingstock" among a tiny subset of gamers with specific political opinions.

And? It'd probably go up much higher without controversies that keep popping up around it. While technically the growth might be outpacing any possible losses for now, if you actually look at the numbers it's been kinda stagnating lately.

But that's completely irrelevant for my point. Growing or not, the double standards stand out like a sore thumb whenever they become apparent, which still is at least a few times per marathon. And while I can understand why some limitations might be needed, there's a point where it gets ridiculous and they've already passed it.

I feel like controversies would stop "popping up" if a certain subsection of participants and fans would stop being shitheads. Like, it's not GDQ's fault that dudes are going around being transphobic or sexually harassing ladies.

Is there evidence that GDQ's efforts to make the event as family-friendly as possible are 100% internal decisions and not at all the result of any sort of influence from any of their sponsors? I admit I haven't looked into it that much but I've always naturally assumed there's been at least a little pressure.

...Where the flying hell did this come from? What does this have to do with anything I said?

I'll repeat, I perfectly understand and agree with a need for some limitations, but that doesn't mean it's okay when pretty innocent stuff suddenly becomes undesirable as well.

Is there evidence that GDQ's efforts to make the event as family-friendly as possible are 100% internal decisions and not at all the result of any sort of influence from any of their sponsors? I admit I haven't looked into it that much but I've always naturally assumed there's been at least a little pressure.

As a viewer, it's all the same to me. I only care about the end result. And speedrunners stubbing toes over rare and tame swearwords is not what I want to see.

And if you think I'm overreacting here's an analogy. You come to a restaurant and order a pie of your favourite flavor. It's delicious but halfway through eating it you notice a metal bolt inside one piece. You throw it out and finish it. The pie is still delicious. But you'll forever remember the restaraunt as "the one where they put bolts in your pies" and feel like avoiding in in the future. Is this not a reasonable reaction? Is mentioning that metal bolt incident to your friends suddenly a faux pas?

Congrats on leaving out the sentence I was actually referring to. And if those are the only kind of controversies that you think happened at GDQ then you're wilfully ignoring the actually questionable ones. Nice try but I'm immune to gaslighting.
