I get speed running games where you have an unorthodox but developer intended means of going fast like Super Metroid or Shantae. But I will never understand people who speed run games like Zelda or use gliches

>>
>>322589652

Regardless of skill required, a speedrun that uses glitches isn't actually speedrunning the game. It is playing a different game where the goal of the game is to not play it.

The goal is to beat the game. If glitches let you do it faster, then so be it. That's why there's different categories of speed runs.

>not appreciating glitchruns on their own merit

Granted, they shouldn't be in the same category as speedruns, but they require a lot of skill and autism all the same.

Ronnie is sad. The idea that he might die painlessly in his sleep comforts him.

Are you autistic?

>I want my speedruns to be glorified let's plays

Are there any bigger autists than ant-glitch/trick faggots?
>>
>>322592950
Nope, anyone might die in their sleep.
What does it mean?

It's just a huge time investment. They really should stop.

>hey look we put 1,000 hours into this run!

Just stop.

>>322592965
I'd rather a speedrunner be someone who is so good at a game that they can beat it the fastest as opposed to them just being the person who can muscle memory/rng some shitty glitch the best
>>
>>322593462
Nobody watches normal speedruns because they take too long. Step up senpai.
>>
>>322592780
Dying in your sleep is the comfiest way to die.

I think the OP is an edit though.

>It's a run that uses glitches to rewrite code and create games within the game itself

While interesting technology-wise, shit like that has no place in speedruns imo.

>>322588629
>Wanting to sit through a trainwreck of a "speed" run where the guy is just playing the game normally except fast.
>Not wanting the glorious understanding of innate game mechanics that allows major skips of trivial parts of the game

It's like you're really shit tier.

I was into speed running a few years ago but twice a year just kinda burned me out. Some people still love it and this event is for charity so good luck to them.
