  What the fuck I can't escape this video it keeps showing up in my suggested on youtube as well
  and I don't even watch speedrunning.

  Is speedrunning the most extreme form of autism?

  speed running narrative driven games is, I'll never understand skipping 3/4 of a game just to see
  the credit roll as fast as you can. These games have very simple game mechanics that aren't very
  exciting on their own. Speed running mechanically driven games, like platformers makes sense,
  because it's a display of mechanical skill, and not running in a straight line from one glitch to
  the other.

  When you're speedrunning, you're not playing the game, you're playing Speedrun. Look at shit like
  this and tell me this isn't impressive: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpk2tdsPh0A

  yeah, it really has little to do with playing through a game normally as fast as you can
  but more with finding extreme obscure glitches
  It depends on what you would consider not using "cheats". Because there isn't a single
  speedrunner who doesn't use every glitch possible.

  OOT was really just a whole bunch of bugs held together with scotch tape and a wish, wasn't it?

  Final Fantasy 3/6. Now there was a bugged out glitch fest.

  There's entire categories for glitchless runs

  That's not a narrative-driven game, which is what the guy you replied to was talking about.
  It is impressive, though.

  I would love a game where you research and build magic spells with the same level of autistic
  detail that is displayed in SM64 glitch videos.

  Define "glitch"
  It's gonna be lots of "tricks" and "optimization" then
  Still probably miles from what a "normal" playthrough would look like in the mind of TJ "Henry"
  Yoshi.
