I feel like any good gamer is capable to speedrun this game without keeping the map on all the time
i overslept and missed the d1 run even though i set an alarm thanks gdq

Okay, now it's apparent you've never fucking played this. Stop.

I love this game but it's an RNG shitfest not fit for speedrunning. It has no tricks or anything impressive going on, especially so since he's playing a sorc. Another game that should not have been accepted.
how did I play this game back in the day. My screen was much smaller than my tv and I could tell what was going on. I can barely make out what shit is on this stream

>>127890368
Agreed, I sometimes tune in to D2 streams late at night to get comfy and reminisce. It's not something for a speedrunning marathon, though.
Of course, there are people who enjoy watching it a lot and don't enjoy watching what I do, so.

I would have been ok with this if they did a coop gimmick where they just bruteforce their way through proper class synergy which could amount to paladin, necro, 6 sorcs. But just watching some guy farm for runes is about as interesting as rerolling for monster cards in some mobile game.

>>127890838
Yeah, it's pretty much what I would be doing if I was playing this game right now. Farming countess.

From the impression I get from the donation messages is the the speedrunning community really just a giant hugbox or is it some kind of a facade pushed for those events?

>nice guy
>gets his wife fucked
no way?
>>127891676
It's been ran in a GDQ, so it's clearly a legitimate run.
>>127891704
She cheated on him because girls learn from the earliest age that they have no responsibilities in this world.
>>127891528
Can you stop?
>>127891595
If he was able to please his wife, she wouldn't have been forced to cheat

>>127891704
you're not wrong, but that's pretty much the worst way to find out
>wake up 2 hours later than I wanted
>check schedule, everything started 45 minutes earlier than I expected anyway
Why is it that the one time I want shit to be late, everything starts working at a good pace holy fuck
>>127891676
I didn't imply that. Minecraft doesn't have a concrete ending so it can't be finished. Its also a bad game as well as a speedgame.
>>127891813
Find out what? Shes a whore? Every woman on this planet is a whore in the right situation. Something all men need to understand and be wary of.

This guy has some great breathing techniques, goddamn, has he stopped talking since the run started?

>>127892714
Gotta watch it all.
>>127891012
You fucker, now I'm hearing him say "castrate" all the damn time.
Wtf is wrong with optimized let's plays? The event is Awesome Games Done QUICK, quick being the important word that means you can cram several more of these fan favorites into the marathon.
Did they use the Tuturu sound effect for Diablo?
>>127892752
I bet you're fat.
>>127892302
I would suck a room full of cocks if they told me there was a second one
>>127892875
It was 50 bucks short and no fun allowed
>>127892752
The great piece of irony is that while men do not get this pleasure as often, its usually much more straightforward. As in, you often see men you would kill to be with but its just flat out impossible and you cant even make a move on him.
Women are the gatekeepers of sex. Men are the gatekeepers of relationships.

Thing is that it also tends to be easier to commentate an RPG/a slow-paced run. So it's not a completely level playing field, really.
Trying to explain every choice you're making in a platformer with dense movement would already be a pain if not for the fact that it also distracts from your concentration, which is where a secondary commentator seems so striking (like in that Gunvolt run yesterday.)
>>127893003
Oh trust me, I understand the difference between an "awesome game done quick" and a good speedgame. Just seems many others do not.

D2 "speedrunning" community is a joke compared to the D2 ladder community. Since this is a marathon run similar to a new ladder, he's missed out on a lot good items, because he can only follow his speedrun checklist without knowing anything about the game.

Hey, anime. Have you seen scarved anime anywhere?
>>127893331
The character choice isn't.
But diablo is just a more edgier cookieclicker and you see no one speedrun that.

Plushies are back, baby! New Yagamoth is the hero of the marathon.
>>127893721
I bet she had a husband you cuck
This slowrun is a nightmare, that estimated time was never going to be correct
Or does an LoD speedrun Any% not actually count Baal
>>127893886
Nice, hope next year will be in a smaller venue with less streamboars at the place.
>>127894039
Why is it that the better a game is the worse it is to speedrun? The D1 had some dumb, repetitive strats but at least it was quick and he did some cute shit.
>>127894039
The game gets a lot faster when he gets teleport, hope for the best.
As a perma-marathon shitter, I just want to say I love you guys. Been here semi-annually ever since /srg/ was founded, I consider you all speedacquaintances.
>>127894283
Greetings from an annualfag, fellow shitter.

Figures an M&M faggot would say that
>>127892714
more interesting than other jrpgs
Has this runner's gay lisp been intensifying over the run? I swear it was barely there when the run started but now he just sounds outright gay.
>Just found out that Cosmo went tranny and is now "Narcissa"
What the fuuuuuuuuuck
I know I'm super late, but what the actual hell. Guess I should've seen it coming with the fingernail painting, but geez.
Is he even speedrunning anymore?

>>127894535
>giant
>ugly
Well, it's not those things. Plus there's a big campaign before you can start playing the real game for people like you.
Are you "honestly implying" that Diablo is better than Diablo 2? Or did you just want to shitpost about everybody's favorite loot grinding simulator?Mandate of Heaven is superior, fuccboi.
>>127894759
personally 7 started entering that uncanny valley that is early 3D models and I dislike it because of that. the game world and the UI doesn't fit together kinda.
also MMX looked ok desu

What is this shitty graphics indie rip off of Path of Exile?

Eat shit and die, the charity doesn't even supply it's retarded 'services' in your country.

I can see that. I played 7 first and when I was very young so its likely a lot of nostalgia as well.
Dang, he might make it under estimate. Shit got real quick at 18.

It's arbitrary what a speedrun is, according to gdq letsplays are speedruns too, making him still a speedrunner
>>127894915
The government supplies the services in my country thanks to our socialised medicine. :*v)
>>127894994
Yes,but that does literally nothing to help people with cancer.
>>127894761
>>127894769
Wow. RIP. He used to be one of my favorite speedrunners, too. Looking at some of his new videos, he's not even the same person anymore, mentally or physically.
Kinda hurts.
>>127895114
Neither does this marathon.
>>127895102
You mean you are forced to supply the sevices indirectly for everyone else, and then use it if you need it, possibly.

Maybe I'll go do D3 again.
>>127895309
settle down achmed
>>127895294
There is literally nothing stopping them now...forcing a subsidized insurance scam on everyone doesn't increase health care it just increases insurance company profits.
Always cucked Euros, in every aspect of government and life. It really is amazing.
>>127895309
We're donating to save imaginary barbarians and animals though.
The grid movement in alpha sapphire drives me nuts. The game just switches between them when you go in doors. Why even have both? Just do all grid, free movement doesn't add to the game at all.
this is gonna go way over time
>>127895387
idk act 4 is pretty fast
>>127894632
my dream is that one day speedrunning will be an acceptable hobby so I can pretend I was in it from the start
but on the other hand it means I wont be able to say I hold a world record and actually impress people with that fact
REMINDER
If you are reading this and your existence requires the support of your government, you are the definition of worthless and useless. The world is literally better off without your burden upon it.
>>127895650
it is, but he's going through act 5 as well
>>127895673
Just play some game no one's ever heard of. Easy world record.
>>127895387
>>127895625
No, not much. Maybe 10-15 minutes. He might die to Diablo though.
