Do any actual speedrunners even browse these threads anymore? Back in the day we had Trihex, Brossentia, and iateyourpie shilling themselves. We had /srg/ runners like Duke, Skeletonbill, and Beneziaa posting, and we even had some lurking runners posting their splits. Is it all just speedrun memes and gossip now?

>>167837571
What do you think?

>>167837571
I run my own obscure game that nobody but myself and 4 other people on the entire planet care about

>>167837571
I speedrun. It's just that nobody believes me when I say I do. I feel like many people who use this board are in denial about actual speedrunners posting here.

>>167837571
Duke, SkeletonBill and the like were never, ever runners. Ever. They jumped on a fad and were not passionate about it, like most people who joined the honby after AGDQ 2013.

>>167838302

That's a decent amount for non-nintendo. He's excelled in them too. Great runner and streamer, as I stated before. Any more obsessive hate posts?

BOTW will be a 10/10 game and a 0/10 speedgame

>>167869497
>That's a decent amount for non-nintendo.
What does it being non-nintendo have to do with anything?
>He's excelled in them too.
It's not hard to excel in a game noone runs.

>>167869712
Because only Nintendo games have a lot of runners.

That's still a decent amount of runners, and you can still optimize a game even if it doesn't have 500 runners. They're good runs, give them a watch.

Great runner and streamer, as I said before.

Based.

less stars => more skilled required
70 stars requires more skill than 120 stars
but the skill gap from 70 stars to 16 stars is even bigger
and the skill required for 0 stars shouldn't even exist mathematically, no wonder only nippon god gamers can do it

>>167869893
>Because only Nintendo games have a lot of runners.
That's not true at all. Just quickly skimming the games page on speedrun.com I've counted 11+ non-nintendo games with over 100 runners.

>>167869893
>you can still optimize a game even if it doesn't have 500 runners.
If you only have 31 people contributing to your speedgame (probably much less actually contribute) and you've optimized it, it means it's a simplistic and easy speedgame.

>>167870034
It's still a decent amount, my dude. Especially for PS2 era games. Hope to see you in his streams! Peace! Based Squid.

I'm surprised there hasn't been more uneasiness from Goose desu lads. It's kinda like he's friends with someone that he bullies when he's hanging out with his other friends. I wonder if Narci is upset that Goose hasn't asked the other guys to cool it with the transphobic remarks.

You missed the turn for leddit

I don't know why people are so concerned with the amount of people that run their games.

Like if I was the only person running my speedgame, it wouldn't bother me at all, so long as I was having fun with it

>>167939352
Optimization is a team effort. The more runners your game has, the more optimized it is, the more impressive it is to achieve a good time in it.

If you're capable of fully solving and optimizing a game with very few people, it probably isn't that complex of a game, and thus you haven't done anything impressive.

>>167939616
And by "optimizing" you meant "grind monkeying".

>>167940109
Grind monkeying is the only hard part about speedrunning. The other parts are easy.

>>167924294
Boy Cyberdemon must really be struggling now she's going to be making 800 speedbucks a month...

>>167939616
>If you're capable of fully solving and optimizing a game with very few people, it probably isn't that complex of a game, and thus you haven't done anything impressive.

Absolutely wrong and most likely bait, I hope. The meme that a game needs 100+ runners or it is uniptimized trash needs to die. The majority of runners to big games don't even contribute. You can have a small playerbase who are passionate about optimizing their game, complex or not. It's black and white like you're making it out to be.

which psx emulator is recommended?

>>167943367
Not black and white*

>>167943392
Emulator isn't recommended for speedrunning as it isn't valid.

I recommend getting a job, going on eBay and picking up a dirt cheap slim PS2.

>>167943367
>The meme that a game needs 100+ runners or it is uniptimized trash needs to die.
And? Nobody made a statement here that disagreed with this. Of course shitty meme games can be optimized, people optimize them all the time.
