listen, I think most 4-hour video essays are 3 hours 30 minutes longer than they needed to be. When pannenkoek2012 makes a 4 hour video essay, it's because there's 4 hours of super mario 64 information that he is going to share with you with incredible diagrams and good explanations.
By the way, Antoine Daniel won't be streaming qsmp or anything on his channel from today to the end of the weekend because he will be at SpeeDons !
I know it's in french so a few people will see but let me sell Speedons to you !
Speedon is a charitative event that happens every year organised by Mister Mv and a lot of french streamers go to help with entertainment/casting and this year Antoine is there full time !
It is a speedrunig event for medecin du monde (Doctors of the world) made to raise money. Players take turn speedrunig their games of prédilection, sometimes getting close to record, sometimes beating them (tetris in 2023). Obiously the commentary in french is really great but if you don't speak french and like speedrun I invite you to tune in for a game you like just to enjoy the performance !
To show you how impresive the marathon is and when each games are played here is this year planning :
Last year they managed to raise 1 252 637 € , and we hope to collect even more this year <3
If you are interested, don't hesitate to take a peek at MisterMv stream !
I want to share this mad idea a french ttrpg designer had.
A system of rules to speedrun campaigns and scenarios.
Warning : the table MUST have played it normally before. These rules are for giving a second life to these campaign books catching dust in your library
These rules are an add-on to the system you used for the campaign. Now you can Bunny hop, glitch, clip, go out of bonds in your game. Bugs can appear. Suddenly the game is in another language, good luck to the players who don't speak it.
You can add little challenges, the same as video game speedrun. Like an all boss run, a no hit run, a non lethal run, etc.
Honestly I found the idea bonkers. I want to try it, seems like a good idea for a crazy game night.
0.00.0001: How Super Mario Wonder Speedrunners Annihilated The Game
Only one week into its release, Super Mario Wonder has been optimized completely by the speedrunning community to a time equal to only a single sub-frame. To find out how, we asked expert speedrunner "izitjustmeordomyballzitch":
"Oh, I just turned it off."
Truly, a revolution in speedrunning. It remains to be seen whether this trick will work in other games, but several players of Sonic Superstars have suggested that it not only works, but is far superior to the regular game itself.
This is not a game per se. This is actually an add on of rules to speedrun your ttrpg campaings or one shot. Clip through the walls, use glitch and invulnerability frames. Do a challenge run : kill all the bosses, find all the loot, or do a pacific run.
This is only for adventures that the group has already played. Give a second life to these campaign books.
