to those who wonder if i have something against capital letters
yes
yes i do
i wanted to stream but i guess my internet upload speeds are nonexistent right now
am sterm quake
fun fact
if you have quake champions
and you watch me play quake champions
you can get loot boxes in quake champions
you should do that
i play just about every night at 11pm est, with a group who goes by "team nda" (because we're all under nda with id software / zenimax). this includes syncerror, lead dev for the game
follow me
maybe i can try replicating some of the tricks and if they work i can get the world record 🤔
and i can find almost nothing on known glitches and strats and the current run that i can find that seems to be the world record does not use some of the things i swear i remember seeing
it was a speedrun of Blinx 2: Masters of Time and Space. I remember about the first half of the run and can point to a bunch of locations where certain commentary around the strats happened, or where certain glitches were exploited - lots of cutscene skips, tricks to get around the stupid cannons that pop up, out of bounds glitches to skip puzzles, weird movement tech in the ice level, boss strats. some of it isn't detailed, just "something was done there" but some of it i have a loose idea how it was done
i'm kinda freaking out right now because something i swear i remember having seen and been enthusiastic about seems to have never happened in the first place.
it feels like i've been transported to some alternate universe.
being close with a lead game dev be like
"yo whats the fastest way to unlock [rare profile icon"
"probably to message me on monday while i'm at work"
@applehq the pokemon yellow/red 2g1c speedrun is coming up!
(that's me btw)
(i have spectrum)
(internet machine broke)
rip charter spectrum customers
Video games are actually really swell I'm glad they're around
tfw when you make a weird face for no reason
aaaaa i haven't been writing code the past two days
time to do that
playing quake champions with people who develop quake champions if anyone wants to watch
i'm streaming quake champions again
i'm inclined to say no since during some of the periods where its taking forever it's not even accessing the disk. nor network, nor anything. it's just kinda... sitting there for 5 minutes.
i moved quake champions to its own hard drive so it doesn't have to "compete" with windows for disk io, so that maybe it would load faster
not sure yet if it is helping at all
