yeah pikmin 3 is annoying since I am trying to figure out how to get all the fruit first time in the area

halo 3 is because I suck at shooters


Halo is actually a franchise that also encourages speedrunning. There are some neat tricks here and there to save enormous time during chapters.

That's a hard one, but mostly because there's not much to be done to save time except for being good and fast at killing and knowing what path should Drake follow under the chapter's circumstances.

I remember about 6 or 7 years ago I used to like "Let's Plays". That was before every other gaming video was a let's play, and was also before the "Screaming and Shouting era" that we're currently in. Now I haven't watched a Let's Play in several years because yuck.

Good luck!



This sounds good. I like watching LPs used to watch Chuggaconroy or however you spell it all the time and you could tell he put a ton of effort into his videos people like him deserve the money.

I watch one Let's Play, and they generally have good bits of humor and commentary and only do first couple hours of a game to give impressions. When ever they do special long haul sessions I get bored and think I'd rather be playing a game myself.

On Nintendo's stance I think more companies should understand how Let's Play behind quality games is great marketing. Shadow of Mordor was barely on my radar until watched a Let's Play and really appreciated the Nemesis System.

I try to speedrun a couple games like halo 3, pikmin 3, other games with 3 in them...


The only game I've speedrunne'd was Braid, and because you're encouraged to do so.

 

I want to try with Dragon's Dogma one day, because that game also features a free-downloadable mode where you're encouraged to speedrun through the whole thing, too.

did you get the achievement/trophy?   i thought about it for a second and then thought to myself, "deary me, that sounds impossible".   still,. it has always annoyed me i don't have 100% on braid.

I have it. :)

Took me a few tries, but not giving up is the key. The worst part of the speedrunning is the last damn chapter before 1. The one where you have to use Tim's engagement ring to slowdown time.  Easily twenty unavoidable minutes are sunk there.
