Should speedrunning be considered a mental illness?

What movements used there didn't the developers want people to use?

If you don't get every star you haven't actually played the game at all.

>People who whine about glitches are also Doge posters
seems about right.

doge was peak 4chin, newfag

It's pretty obvious. If it's a game you like it's interesting to see it pushed to its limits to be beaten as fast as possible. Doing it yourself is one thing and almost certainly extremely tedious but I don't think there's anything strange about people watching the finished product.

Doge has more stupidity, aka zoomerism.

underage

>it's another episode of complaining about speedrunning categories
Come on, get some better material. SM64 has literally every category you could want, from the most broken, to the most complete.

Any% is cancer.

thanks for admitting you are not older than 25.

Videogames are a mental illness. Speedrunners are just more open about it.

Isn't it faster just to use the cannon near where the chain chomp is rather than climbing half the mountian?

What? Most of us here are 18-20. You haven't continued using this website after college, right?

>call it a speedrun

Ok now you aren't older than 20. Keep going please.

no because opening the cannon has like a 10 second cutscene

>what buttons did he press to do that sequence break that the devs didnt want people to press?
excellent logic

Speedrunning is about not playing the game.

Yes, and if you don't like it, I'm sure your game has a "no wrong warp" or similar category.
Does the existence of a category trigger you, autisbro?

Most of us have been using this site since 2003~2004 bro

yes, except for the part where they play the game.

This is why I like Donkey Kong Country speedruns and races. It's just going through the game fast by mastering each level.

>TAS runs
Only if they're NES and obsure as fuck games, they're interesting to watch.

Yes

Answer the question retard

I'm watching a TAS of Pikmin now and already saw a trick the number 1 speedrun doesn't do.

all glitches are performed using moves the developers intended, user.

I wish

Speedrunning is just a function of autism, and we already consider that a mental illness.
Doesn't stop it from being fucking impressive sometimes though. Pancake Man's rolling rocks video still fucking blows my mind.

>clipping through the level is intended

Golden Eye is the only Truly Incredible speed game.

Looks like the normal moveset to me.

I don't think they intended the player to clip through the mountain in that webm you just posted

I like the doge meme because you can tell it was made by a Libtard because this is the only cringe/forced template where the "Left" side is the significantly better side

I can't imagine speed running a game. Isn't it boring to exclusively play a game to get through it as quickly as possible, but not only that, but to continue to play the game this way for months/years on end?

I don't think you really enjoy video games if you take up speed running. To try and good and be #1 in this thing nobody else does. How fucking lame.

Why does this board get so worked up over a small community?
I'd call that fixation more of a mental illness.

Credits/ending wrong warps are the death of any speed game. I know they set up categories for "no wrong warp" after but it's too late, interest dries right up for non-ww categories.

Reddit

>conflating the symptoms with the illness itself
You're not very bright yourself, are you OP

Why do autists get upset that people play the game differently to them?

>Zig Forums is STILL mad about the consumption of insects and other terrestrial arthropods while seeing no problem with eating crustaceans
Why?

It's no less or more boring than practicing standard play for years. Considering the fact there are leaderboards for this shit it's not like "no one" is doing it. Although it is pretty sad to be literally the only person trying to git gud at long forgotten movie tie ins.
