nobody says it's easy to do it's just autistic, you autist.
speedrunning has some rng elements too

But first

you HAVE to be 18, you simply must be
everything was 60 back then except for pal which was 50 but technically 60 due to the televisions

Oh dang, i think im about to see a meme unfold
This is my first time trying to participate
Why sir I offer a rare pepe in exchange
you'd have to be pretty fucking stupid to deny the skill involved in speedrunning.
>>332740797
I thought this meme picture was exclusive to atheism threads.
>>332742894
I guess the point has become what makes 1v1 LESS autistic than speedrunning.
>both involve frame perfect
>speedrunning is more precise though, to the point of needing to pause bugger to land shit on the right frame AND pixel at the same time
>plenty of black people in both
>can speedrun from home, playing fighting games from ur lounge room is random wins
Hard to say but both are AT LEAST on the SPECTRUM. The spectrum is big don't kill yourselves instantly after reading this. There is hope.

When the autist does something autistic that's normal. When a normie has trained to do that autistic thing easily it's impressive.
So this thread is just some autistic guy crying about how no one cares he does autistic shit?

Noone cares about what you can do in fighters unless you're a top contender. Stop acting like playing video games is prestigious.

An A press in an A press, you cant press only half.

Woah holy projection Batman!! I never said any of that. I said a normie doing something autistic in a game is more impressive than an autist doing something autistic in a game
Links are essentially all the same, just with different timing.
Once you've learned one you've pretty much learned them all.
You can practice them in literally less than 1 second, inbetween practicing other combos or even during a match against your friend
Even if you drop a lot of links or can't do them at all, you can still be fairly competitive with good footsies and reads
>Play the game normally noob!
They are literally an intended mechanic from the developers, there is nothing abnormal about them
Speedrunning tricks require you to learn and practice incredibly specific shit, and pull it off consistently with no variation
Some of them require a ton (anywhere from 10 seconds to multiple minutes) of setup to even try practicing once
Running through the exact same sequence over by yourself is incredibly autistic
If you're inconsistent or flat out can't do an important glitch in a game, you stand no chance of being competitive
No one says that shit you just said OP, but for the sake of argument, fighting games require those 1-frame links in very specific circumstances that require a huge level of adaptability, while speedruns can be done entirely from memory unless there's RNG involved.

Do whatever you want, why do you care what anyone says about it?
>>332742894
That was freaking awesome, do you have a link to the complete speedrun?
>>332743383
Ok so haha yeah, this needs to stop right here.
There is no difference, this flowchart shit which 'pros' think is just fireballs into other shit.
It's all just patterns. Try and speedrun a game with a decent time. You are ALL just flowchart, even Daigo.
Acting like you have the instinct to act on a reaction that is less than a millisecond is a joke, you're just gambling. A speedrunner has to just hit it, sometimes hours into a run. And if he misses it, reset time.
A fighter player just makes excuses and goes for the next match making game.

Every good musician is an autist I guess.
>>332744172
that's the IL strat, so no they don't. maybe learn what you're talking about before typing things.
>Play the game normally noob!
People say that because part of every fucking speedrun is to completely glitch out the game and run through walls and fly through skies to skip half of the game.

Any musician who basically only plays one song all day every day is an autist, yes.
>>332744228
I'm not going to argue with someone who is discrediting a type of game that they know nothing about

I'm sorry that you dislike the truth.

Why the hell did everyone stop making platformers again? Why is everything so shit now goddamn. like i pre-ordered the ps4 version of dark souls and I see frame dips everywhere, why are we not wanting better quality from our games? Goddamnit

Japan makes a lot of B-tier games now which all manage 60 FPS on PS4 since they aren't graphically outrageous.
Western journos shit on their low production values when they do this and complain that they aren't cinematic and photo realistic.
People here complain that they look like PS2 games.
I'm all for lower dev costs and higher framerates myself. Fuck this obsession with graphics.
>>332744630
It seems like there's a revival going for that genre lately. There was the Yoka Layley kickstarter (I probably didn't spell that right) and there are a few recent games on Steam like that.
There was one with a magician girl protag that seemed nice.
>>332740797
Stop comparing a reactionary versus system to some guy playing I LIKE THAT JUMP! the exact same way for the 1000th time.
There's a reason speed running is a lightning rod for autism.
>>332744426
Reducing everything to the lowest common denominator is delusion, not truth.
>All you do in fighting games is press buttons and punch people.
See what I mean?

You retards realize that a lot of speedrunners are also into fighting games right? There's an immense amount of overlap.
>>332744630
Platformers are the domain of shitty muh 2D retro pixel RPG indieshit Kikestarter developers now.
Then again I hear low poly is getting pretty popular, let's hope for some gems.

Fgc is anti autism. Its ultra normie where people actually get excited and have fun speed running is just oh wow you hit that jump for 4 hours

They do but at mundane shit like a jump. Go look at any crowd at AGDQ vs a crowd at evo. Can you tell the difference or are you autistic to the max
>>332745270
>Go look at any crowd at AGDQ vs a crowd at evo.
I don't disagree that fighting games are more exciting to watch than speedruns. I'm not sure what that has to do with anything.
>AGDQ
lmao
>>332745270
commentated demonstration marathons aren't the speedrunning equivalent of fighting game tournaments.
>AGDQ
confirmed stream shitter right here.
>>332745956
Are there any other big speedrun events? AGDQ looks hella legit to me.
>>332740797
Yeah, try and guess which one of those is exploiting a design flaw.
>>332741013
So do fighting games. You can't control what your opponent will do, hence RNG.
>>332746157
>Are there any other big speedrun events? AGDQ looks hella legit to me.
none that are as big or high budget as AGDQ. ESA in Europe is probably the closest thing.
the thing about marathons is that no speedrunners actually like them. GDQs in particular are designed to appeal to a general gaming audience, and not actual speedrunners. nobody attends AGDQ to sit there watching speedruns in the stream room. they go to hang out with their speedrunner friends in a hotel getting drunk and partying for a week. there are game rooms situated in the hotel where speedrunners race each other or play multiplayer games (including fighters, which many speedrunners are interested in as well.) there's even an arcade room now.
speedrunning isn't exciting to watch unless you're very interested in a specific game or if a runner is streaming and on good pace. it's a much more niche interest, while fighting games are accessible to a much wider audience.
i don't know any speedrunner who would try to argue that speedrunning is more skilled than fighting games. many will concede that fighters take as much, if not more, skill and hard work. the speedrunning community in general has a huge respect for the fighting game community. speedrunning takes skill too though, obviously. these threads are created by stream monsters who want to create an imaginary rivalry between the two communities, when in reality there is a huge amount of overlap and respect between both.
stop being cunts.
