Its literally breaking the game down to its limits, counting milliseconds.

What is not interesting? If you want to see proper gameplay you can bunnyhop through the whole game yourself while running away from everything.

Also when somebody does it that way it takes much more than one or two hours so you faggots with the attention span of a baby still find it boring.

i don't really care for speedrunning, but the glitch stuff is what makes it kind of fun imo. as long as it's "ingame glitches" and not fag shit like "lol, let's add a bunch of scripts" or TAS.

30 seconds on a 40 minute video is nothing.

Holy shit, you people are autistic.

>>336255627
TAS can be fun, if it's not actually a speedrun anymore but just someone trying to fuck around with stuff as much as possible.

It's speedrunning, there literally is no other way to play video games where every single second counts more.
>>
>>336255985
Good thing there's 40 minutes worth of seconds left.

If you're watching a speedrun, chances are you aren't doing anything important anyway.

Stay autistic.

>>336254294
But a "speedrun" involves exploitation of all the game's mechanics, intended or not. Unfortunately, you don't get to decide the definition.
A game will have similar any% and glitchless routes if they aren't broken to shit.

How do these guys choose what version to speedrun the games?

All games always get updated and glitch fixes and shit.

Are there any rules about these sort of things like "An attempted speedrun of the game should always be done with the latest version / launch version" or some shit in the modding scene?

I've always wondered that.

You're shit and can't do it, we know.

>>336257659
If a run has version-specific bugs or strategies then that version is its own category, any category that doesn't specify version is always the most current version.
I.E. Dark Souls 2 has gigantic bugs in the unpatched version that lets you do the game in like 15 minutes, but the current version any% is like an hour, so runs are categorized based on unpatched vs. current patch.

Speedrunning is degenerate.

what is your problem why are you so defensive with this
>>
Is there anything gayer than a segmented run?

Oh yeah, segmented runs by multiple runners. Get this shit out of here.
>>
Glitched runs are interesting if the runner understands why the glitches occur and can explain it, gives insight into the game engine and is quite interesting.

However if they just do it because it works and know nothing then its pretty boring watching someone skip half a game.

Depending on the rule set, they will use whatever game version helps the run the best. In an any% of course the runner will use the most broken patch available. There are most likely sets for with only the most updated version of the game as well though.

Sometimes there exist different categories when a particular mechanic can cut extreme amounts of the game's duration.

On a different note I'm happy people actually did GTA: SA single segment.

Done Quicker runs have always been segmented, but you would know that if you weren't twitch GDQ shitters.
