Is doing a 50 - 70 hour game in 8 hours not speedy?

Isn't 40 mins a bit much? There aren't that many bosses in the game.

time for some quality rally english

So that's why I thought he always looked a little bit familiar.

>there are """""""people""""""" watching the P4G run

Let's not make fun of how this guy looks, okay? He's trying his best.

Why are webm's muted on Any Forums? Am I retarded?
Can they be saved with volume?

Nobody was

>Why are webm's muted on Any Forums?
because this website is shit

Webms aren't allowed to have audio outside of /wsg/, /wsr/, and maybe another board or two.

He just looks like a nerd, not worthy of bullying at all.

I really commend the spanish devs for including a X parasite phase to maintain consistency with Fusion, this game is was great

>forgetting our beloved pron board /gif/

I can see this fucking board spamming super loud screamer shit.

The Chad ESA
>Aware that not everyone likes JRPG runs
>Aware that they take up a large amount of the time slot that can go to multiple other things

The Virgin GDQ
>THIS 5 HOUR JRPG RUN IS GOING ON PRIME TIME EVEN IF YOU DONT LIKE IT. OUR FRIEND IS RUNNING IT DONT WANNA WATCH THEN JUST LEAVE.
>By the way remember to check out our second 3 hour Pokemon randomizer this event!
>I'm sorry Bloodstained we're gonna have to cut your run we just don't have time for you we gotta make room for our third Pokemon run :(

/gif/, too. /trash should really have it, too, because why the fuck not.

And, you get that on boards that allow sound anyways.

they ran so much pokemon on the last gdq
what they were thinking

>beloved
it's fucking garbage

Did he mention why the estimate is 40 minutes?

Oh, the bosses cycle again? That's why it's it's so long.

they took him from us too early

Sure but Any Forums is a far bigger board with far more retards.

being so anti jrpg just makes you look like a sad little soiboy

He's the new Ridley
He's gonna be back

>Hopefully you're not too bored
>5 people leave in a group

>8 hours 30 minutes
How does anyone even concentrate on one thing that long? I mean it's impressive remembering all the shit you have to do but I just can't even imagine sitting and playing one game nonstop for that long.

I still haven't beaten the final boss of Dread, am I a scrub?

>Astro Boy birth%
Sometimes I wish someone would do rebirth% too

Why does Keizaron hate black people so much anyway?

OK normalfag

It's still wild that they cut like three runs due to time constraints and then replaced it with a third Pokemon run that people had to pay for and it worked and they got away with it

No. user. Ravenbeak is by far the strongest and most powerful villain ever created. He is also super handsome, smart and cunning and doesn't afraid of anything.

Why does this Finnish guy pronounce refills like redpills?

>that people had to pay for
*that people had to pay for twice

wow he sounds just like me

He's pretty tough, for sure, but you should be able to beat it. Got him on my 3rd try.

Seriously, the whole game is great, especially the second half.

it's so wild that they actually made a metroid game this hard on normal difficulty, I remember having a lot of fucking gameover screens, a welcome change if something

No. Just because it's quick, doesn't mean it's fast. You wouldn't call a marathon runner fast because he completed a marathon in 2 hours, because 2 hours is slow. You'd just call him quicker than most people. Only a 100m runner is truly fast.
Speedrunning is the same. Speedrunners whose runs are 30 minutes are both quick and fast, which makes them speedrunners, but people who run games that take dozens of hours are merely quick but not fast, which goes against the point of speedrunning.

>and then replaced it with a third Pokemon run that people had to pay for
TWICE, because it failed the first time around 82%.

Kiezaron hates anyone who takes prime time away from his pokemon lets play runs. Blacktastic wasn't the only runner who got fucked out of a run last GDQ

>Just because it's speed doesn't mean it's speed

Ever since they did that Pokemon Shield/Sword finale with the WHALORD incentive and shilling it incessantly for a really lackluster incentive, they've never stopped putting at least half a fucking day's worth of Pokeman runs in the schedule and inching them closer to the finale.
Last months' was incredibly shit, though.

Oh god Samu is choking again

I hope this is bait, because you can't possibly be that retarded

Here's that moment with sound at least. The sound is bugged in game because someone asked for it since it's $20%

What was the other run that was cut, again? The entertaining S-tier runner for a VR game?

>Just because it's quick, doesn't mean it's fast.
KEK

That's the rallienglanti kicking in

why the fuck are they doing a boss run instead of a normal run? the skips are the whole point

>I just can't even imagine sitting and playing one game nonstop for that long.
Because you're weak and have a tiny chin.

Saving this for later, thanks user

I still can't believe GDQ sunk to that level

It seems like Keiz might actually fuck off with the randomizers though with how much the negativity they've caused makes him seethe. The second Pokemon run when he was on the couch (offering zero actual commentary because he clearly knew fuck all about the run and just planted himself on the couch) he was doing nothing but complaining about reddit comments. He was actually taking attention away from the speedrun so he could seethe about meanies online

Yes, SuperHotVR got cancelled and the runner was the guy who did a A/S tier Kings Qwest run.

Hope any real donators to those events will start to think about where his money is REALLY going to thanks to this year SGDQ

watching this it's making me want to play Dread again, we metroidfags ate like kings last year
I wisth they could make hacks for dread

Is this the new "fun is just a buzzword"?

Kiez even started being bitchy towards the runner where at one piint the runner replied I know what youre trying to do here. Made me kek

Truly Keizaron is the DSP of GDQ

>he was doing nothing but complaining about reddit comments. He was actually taking attention away from the speedrun so he could seethe about meanies online
I didn't watch the run, but you're saying he was reading angry Reddit posts during the run just to get upset about them? What a sad person.
