You forgot one: most epic gun-cocking in video game history at 05:11 ;)

[@Davimre]

The dude asking questions was so helpful to understand the tech behind this run. Shout out to him.

[@ReveLuv1814]

That's Bryonato, he also played at agdq, watch his Control run, it's entertaining as hell. He also runs Titanfall 2. DOOOOOOOOOOOOM

[@luxnoria1661]

I agree, it's always nice to have someone on the couch asking questions rather then some of the runs where most of the time their pretty quiet.

[@Sud0F1nch]

Dude! Have a casual player on every couch. This. Needs to be.

[@Bryonato]

That was me :) thanks dude

[@KonkaBass]

Big agree to having casuals [to that game] on the couch.

[@JulieLamia]

Me: I struggle to watch movies and shows, I have a hard time getting into them Also me: watching a Doom 2016 100% speedrun on Nightmare

[@THExRISER]

Same goes for me,I would rather watch a stream,let's play or speedrun than watch a movie.

[@xato495]

that was more entertainment and enjoyable than long movie

[@esmer4167]

Genuinely the most precise and relatable statement I read all week.

[@chenlu666]

Same, the movie industry is so fucked it's understandable. Just superheros, cheap horror and remakes. Trash, nothing but trash so I watch community made content. It's made with passion.

[@chabbab6698]

How can you struggle to see a show or a movie?

[@DudePossum]

Love this streamer's energy. "Where's the last demon? I've got a present for him! OH NO HE'S GOT A PRESENT FOR ME TOO! I DON'T WANT IT!"

My god. The crowd, the couch and the donations. This runs is priceless.

[@Zelapher]

1:18:35 POINT AND CLICK, YOU WIN!

[@jakekeys88music]

Dude, I was right there in the front row (in the God of War shirt). We had so much fun watching and cheering this guy on...and making him laugh. It was one of my favorite runs from the brief time I was there (could only afford to stay half the week).

[@DisDatK9]

I love the run itself so much. It’s just old school speed running. No manipulation of the games mechanics or glitching to skip, just a deep knowledge of the entire game and a ton of skill.

[@Lunchbox224]

The Doom community has just been so consistently cool for so long.

[@rashed831]

[@ChaosExodus]

“I did a run where I alt+f4’d out of it, nobody liked that.” This sounds like exactly the kind of crap I do 😂😂😂

[@RyucioFade]

The best part about DOOM speedruns is DOOM humor during DOOM speedruns

[@jakekeys88music]

Point and click, rip and tear!!!

[@azmosam4572]

Having a guy actually ask questions for once make this so much better. A lot of runners just forget to explain certain things, or they over explain everything, but having a dude ask appropriate questions keeps the flow going, and you're never gonna have unanswered questions in your head.

[@officialgagethepyro5391]

TBH I think that everyone run should have a guy like that asking those questions. Makes the whole thing a lot more approachable and interesting

[@joeyboom117]

Loved the run, the energy, the couch, the crowd, and the runner. This has to be one of the most of the entertaining runs this year

[@sour_milk_carton9930]

You should check out the terraria run lol definitely a huge change of pace, but the run and runner is hilariously amazing

[@sanstheskeleton8104]

And the donations

[@ALucienLachance]

I loved the new Fallout Anthology run, suuuper entertaining.

[@TheSencat]

You know I actually really appreciate Bryonatos questions, he knows enough about a game he doesnt run to be able to ask good questions. Also DOOOOOOOM

[@Bryonato]

Thanks dude :)

POINT AND CLICK!

[@mrb692]

This was a 1am run?! Felt more like prime time to me! This run had it all: great gameplay, great commentary, great donations, and a great crowd! Think we’ll see a Doom Eternal run at SGDQ?

[@Halfkroon]

Considering there's 3 months between SGDQ and Eternal's release, and GDQ submissions are usually at least 2 months before the event, I think it's unlikely that we'll see a run in SGDQ. AGDQ 2021 is a pretty safe bet though!

[@The2flame]

IT JUST CAME OUT!!!!!!!!!!!

[@joemother477]

i hope

[@1313eable]

And it is in SGDQ this year, as expected.

[@silenc3068]

Doom has that effect on people, it wasn’t the first shooter, but it practically made a new type of shooter, people get hyped when you even mention it, you could have it at anytime and this would be the reaction

[@snailshaman7948]

Personally one of the most enjoyable AGDQ runs ever. Absolutely great commentary from the runner and couch, and this catagory shows off the whole game amazingly.

[@kirby1694]

This is how I imagine the Doom Slayer fights.

[@wellofego6662]

This has been the most satisfying, brutal, metal and greatest run I've ever watched since GDQ2015.

[@stickyreiss]

1:47:58 the cyberdemon just phases in to check on Byteme and decides to wait for a better time.

[@miroku888]

What a run. Massive respect to the runner.

[@user-ec6kt2fg7m]

He seems so nonchalant when speed running what a beast! Like a walk among the tombstone.

[@plaguebearermetal]

This is by far the best speed run I've ever watched! Great game, great runner, a couch that is awesome, a wonderful audience - everything is rad.

[@jakekeys88music]

Dude, I loved being in the audience for this run! Front row, late night...fun with a bunch of awesome peeps!

[@Gingerbran]

Love Brynato with all the great beginning questions on the couch

[@Torokk]

57:08 damn that was BADASS!

[@aneru9396]

2:21:04 The start of how Audiance broke ByteMe

[@TheCrackler]

Mad respect to the announcer. The energy he put into reading the donations made them fitting for a DOOM run of this caliber. The whole thing was flawless entertainment.

[@tedweird]

This is a great run with a great runner and couch commentary. Byte is really entertaining, BT tells loads of information, and CovertMuffin as host is icing.

[@zioziozie]

This is Epic. Many positive vibes from these guys...

[@beefknuckles]

Awesome run and awesome commentary. I really liked having somebody on the couch who's played casually but not as a speedrunner. He was asking all the questions I would have asked. Really smart idea.

[@mortmortmort8908]

This is one of the best runs I've seen. I love seeing the crowd being into it, especially for long runs as this. Another instance of the runner and donation reader having the right chemistry to keep the crowd engaged and enjoying it. Reminds me of MajinPhil and Paddy from last year.

[@illastar]

Blood thunder has to be one of the coolest names I’ve ever heard

[@MrSnuffian]

Jarrad Lewis pretty sure it’s a reference To Blood and thunder by Mastodon

[@GreatistheWorld]

Man, I love a speedrun with a Curiosity Guy on the couch asking neat questions about the craft

[@DennisJHarrisonJrHere]

Best run I've ever seen! I gut laughed so many times during this - donation notes, couch, audience, and runner were just all on point. RIP AND TEAR!!!!!

[@JesLazarus]

I watched this run as it was live and watched it at least ten times since then. It always manages to put a smile on my lips when i need one. The runner, the couch, the host, the crowd, the game, everything is just perfect about this run~

[@felixawsome]

I actually did 100% nightmare. Took me like 10 times as long, this is amazing.

[@NekoHibaCosplay]

The most fun speedrun to watch by far, Covertmuffin, Bryonato and Byteme were totally hilarious during all the run Can't wait for SGDQ to see an Eternal speedrun

[@SachinMahiSh4rK]

What a fantastic run. DOOM Eternal can't come soon enough.

[@Ravenpaw1313]

The run was fantastic and amazing. But even better was all the support, the excited crowd, the excellent couch commentary and the sheer delight of the runner himself. This was so much fun to watch! RIP AND TEAR

[@JRTIntervencion]

Bryonato, thank you very much. Having someone on couch asking "noob questions" definitely improved this run.

[@TuffMelon]

This game is an absolute blast on nightmare. You don't realise how vital movement is until you stop for a moment and immediately get obliterated.

[@TheIpwnkyle]

He calls his daughter popcorn.... That's so freaking wholesome. Loved the run!

[@trithos7308]

Ahhhh just the thing I needed to get hyped for doom eternal. Being reminded how mediocre I am at doom 2016.

[@heavyink123]

This is the most entertaining run I've ever watched. Thanks and congrats to all involved, Byteme you rock man.

[@HuntShowdownWL]

This will be forever known as a best live speedrun in a history.

[@mustardofdoom]

I didn't get to watch much of this year's stream live, but caught this one. The room was so hype and very fun! Great run and good energy.

[@luisrodiguez6370]

Unfortunately he closed his YT channel, I loved watching his videos (mostly his Doom speedruns) and his Lives. When I tried to search for him, none of his videos appeared.

[@XWomenLover69X]

Damn, I'm gonna miss those videos :(

[@Itsjcold0]

Any idea what happened ??

[@djtrig6576]

He just decided it was time to focus on family and he made the call to erase his online presence. That’s what I heard anyway. Didn’t seem sad, just bittersweet for the fans

[@Dekoi.]

Never thought there’d be a reason to watch events/speed runs like this BUT this is so entertaining and there’s so much hype the goes into it from the crowd, donos, and to the epic moments.. new fan inbound

[@TomResnick]

57:15 Just incredible. Might be the most thrilling part of a thrilling run. Well done!

[@ruidasilvamartins]

Thanks for your great job ! Still realy appreciate GDQ after many years ! Much love from Switzerland

[@halvarianknight4477]

Every time I saw the Ardent spheres all I could hear was "OOOOORRRRRBBBBB!!!"

[@davewebster5120]

There were some great runs for this marathon but this DOOM run was the best run of AGDQ 2020. Excellent work. Just outstanding.

[@Lindeman08]

Fantastic. One of the best GDQ runs of all time.

[@thats4thebirds]

This runner is easily one of the most entertaining of the event. Love to see it!

[@thevideonerd11]

This is the run that i needed

[@Rockeman182]

Still love this! I'm so glad I found this again. What a hype-train all the way through! Gotta hand it to everybody who was in this video that carried the energy throughout the entirety of the run. RIP AND TEAR!!!

[@Rikorage]

1:18:35 POINT-AND-CLICK OOOOH YEAH! That line and delivery is hilarious.

[@PeterJamesVillegas]

Byte to Random Audience: I love you.

[@johng92]

I’ve watched more than a few GDQ speed runs and I think this by far is the best. From the runner giving the couch good cues to explain what/how/why to the crowd being so great to the donation messages. This is peak cooperation on all parts. Not to mention Byte just being a monster at this game. Fantastic. Also the guy who yelled “SNAP INTO A SLIM JIM, RIP AND TEAR” is a legend

[@Brandy8999]

One of the best runs I have ever seen. So much fun through all the stages of the game. RIP AND TEAR!!!

[@MCSorry]

I forgot it was AGDQ last week dammit. Awesome to see fellow speedrunners on the couch!

[@crumche]

I love everything about this run, from the gameplay to the commentary to the crowd (ESPECIALLY the crowd). Definitely one of the most enthralling runs I've watched in a while. Three cheers for DOOOOOOOOOOM!

[@apall2764]

So far this is the most satisfying run I've ever seen, Great Job!

[@carlafalasca4514]

Best run so far! This guy is a legend

[@allc4ps]

1:30:28 re-watching this in 2022 and this part is so funny, the POINT-AND-CLICK from the audience and the doom lovestory… just a great und highly entertaining run, big ups to everyone

[@blainebuffington]

This was the best GDQ I have watched Amazing crowd awesome couch awesome game awesome 3 hrs spent

[@zircucumber6493]

Genuinely my favorite GDQ run just because of the donations and the crowd. So good!

[@AndersHaalandverby]

Dude, made my last comment in complete ignorance, turns out there was quite a bit of demon-slaying here after all 🤘, so awesome to watch, what incredible skill on display, and the fact that you are doing it all live🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 (yes my brain exploded 5 times. fact.)

[@KidKat__]

This is honestly just a bunch of guys shooting the shit with an amazing crowd that totally embraced it, joining in. This is probably one of the best runs I've seen at GDQ.

[@chaosof99]

This was a brilliant run. Mesmerizing gameplay, charismatic commentary, great energy, hilarious donations. This had everything.

This deserves so much more love, this was amazing to watch through

[@mads4830]

This is the best run I've ever watched. Humour and Gameplay are amazing

This is peak GDQ. Runner commentary, couch commentary, quality audience. Everyone is having a great time raising money for a good cause.

[@wezzdv9630]

Watched this run a few times and it keeps lifting my spirit after a hard day at work. 😊 This one's epic! Huge fan of the runner and couch, huge fan of DOOOOOM!!

[@scvrlett18]

So much passion and knowledge about the game and a great personality makes for an enjoyable viewing experience

[@Valshiirs]

A really interesting run. Great job.

[@Alarnik]

Best run at AGDQ i've seen!

[@guul66]

great run! also thx bryonato for asking all those questions, the others seemed to forget to explain some stuff :D

[@ratonlucho]

I was like "I'm gonna watch this run dividing it in 3 days or something" but it was so much fun I just couldn't stop. Awesome run everyone, the public, the donations, the coach, everyone.

[@bentosan]

Absolutely everything about this was awesome.

[@AndersHaalandverby]

So, there is just SO much that goes into doing a speedrun like this, and I just, from my very limited understanding want to point out the "steps" required to do this 1. An almost inhuman amount of skill of aiming and movement precision 2. A complete memorization of every map 3. A complete memorization of every secret 4. A complete memorization of every powerup* 5. A complete memorization of every ammo and health pickup* 6. A complete memorization of every enemy spawning into the game at specific times.* 7. A complete memorization of the absolute fastest possible path between everything in point 2-5*. 8. All of the exploits and tricks offered by way of bugs and quirks in the game, depending on, but not limited to; 9. A better understanding of the physics of the game than the developers themselves had 10. A better understanding of the mechanics of the game than the developers themselves had. 11. *Some of this stuff is just random 12. An almost superhuman ability to respond to all this randomness. 13. An almost superhuman ability to respond to every tiny mistake that may throw of the run at any point.. 13. This is by no means a complete list of skills, and many of these specific tricks done could probably be written a book about, but lets take a minute to appreciate the dedication that goes into doing something like this run. it is so much more amazing than it looks. (and it looks amazing)

[@valiantparagonvideos2383]

Another Legendary Run AGDQ2020 was really good!

[@Maloviel]

This is legitimately one of my favorite runs of any GDQ I've watched. If I were there, I feel like I would have had to offer the "Point and Click, Oooh yeah!" dude lunch.

[@alliejasmine]

I've been told that the canon reason that Doomguy kills the demons is because they killed his pet bunny and he wants revenge. If that's not canon it needs to be.

[@YaBoiUsername]

I don't think its canon for this game, cause I believe this doom guy is a different one from the original games, but it is *100%* the canon reason for all the slaying in the first 3.

[@BanHelsing]

It's not on the new series, but it was a part of the plot on the second game

[@zoelio999]

Thats the ending of doom 2. the rabbit is named Daisy.

In the first age, in the first battle, when the shadows first lengthened, one stood. He chose the path of perpetual torment. In his ravenous hatred he found no peace. And with boiling blood he scoured the Umbral Plains seeking vengeance against the dark lords who had wronged him. And those that tasted the bite of his sword named him...ByteMe

[@PinkFloydrulez]
