Games Done Quick


Recommended Posts

Why is it that all the runs of games I and many others are interested in are on during the midnight hours or at times between 1Am and 6am? American time zones poorly optimising the games...

 

Anyway, the next run that I'm interested in seeing, Zelda: Link Between Worlds, is after the current Starcraft run.

Just wait for them to be uploaded to the GDQ YouTube channel :)

As with every time they run it, it’s a great watch!  There are some inevitability dull runs or poor commentaries, but when you find a good one it’s a real eye-opener and amazing to see players who are just so much better than me! 😃

The Mario Bros 3 All Forts race was excellent & I wanted to see whether Mitch could make up for last year when he lost the hammer suit seconds before facing Bowser!

I'm watching the Octopath Traveller run.

Holy crap, it's hilarious how unlucky the runner is here. A 3% Steal chance is needed for this route. So for a laugh, the runner attempted a different 3% steal chance for an item that wasn't needed.

Got it first go.

As for the actual needed item. It took 55 attempts.

This final boss is killing the run though. Absolute horrid luck going on.

The AGDQ 2020 list of games is up!

 

Ones that caught my eye include Cadence of Hyrule, Pac-Man Arrangement, Pokémon X/Y, Super Mario 64 Randomizer, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword (With an estimate that is around half of what it was before... must've found some very interesting shortcuts!) and Mushihimesama Futari on Ultra!?!?! (Holy cow! That's nuts!)

DOOM 2016 Nightmare 100%

My brother and I just started playing Doom 2016 on Nightmare mode for the first time on the Switch, after an hour and a half trying to beat the first main room we left it.

Going just by that, a complete Nightmare mode run on 100% is probably more fun to watch than it is to play, I might even watch it for some tips if no progress has been made.

Might just bump the difficulty down a notch though... :p

Quite a few games have been added to the schedule since it was first announced, including Links Awakening Switch, Super Mario Maker 2 and Untitled Goose Game :D 

Seeing a Link's Awakening run without crazy warping shenanigans is going to be surreal!

Probably won't be able to tune in much live. 

Here's hoping a couple of runs from yesterday will be up on YouTube later tonight :peace: 

 

I always like to watch Super MarioDonkey Kong and Mega Man races/speedruns. Will try to tune in to Donkey Kong Country 3 in a couple of hours :)

Personally I have stopped watching runs of games I've already seen done at the show even if they have become more optimised over the years. However, I am very curious about the speedruns for Marvel's Spider-Man and Pokemon X/Y, especially the former. The schedule says it will be done in one hour so I dread to think what kind of glitches they are going to abuse in the run.
