[@peterclark2152]

@@biga9144 I see, it’s hard to tell sometimes. I think he has screwed himself over as far as his community goes. I think he wants a community like the one he has on twitch when he is Asmongold, I know he says it’s not a character, and I’m not saying it is, but many people put on masks when they are around other people. He has made it obvious in the past that there is more going on in his life than he is willing to share (which is completely fine, we all need privacy). But those moments where we see him say something that he believes with conviction it is a completely different person who is talking whether he realizes it or not. The only problem is that by this point his chat has been given full leeway time and time again in circumstances that are serious to say stupid things and act immaturely. So when he finally opens up about something he is legitimately wanting to say in the way he himself, Zack would say it, his chat barely hears him. Yes sometimes his chat is understanding and recognizes when he is saying something serious. But often times, at least to me and I could be wrong, I feel like his chat just doesn’t care because they have not been given a standard rule of maturity to stand behind.

Trying to think whether I have died to them or not. I very well might have but I can't remember it ever happening. I have never died to the curse because I usually make them dead long before that's even remotely an issue. I know I have gotten staggerlocked a few times but they don't really do enough damage for that to be an issue unless you play with base vigor. The problem is though that it was a DS3 speedrun that made me finally play the franchise so I already knew what to expect from them the first time I fought them.

[@TheMCmace]

Insane how dumb the average Asmon Twitch Viewer is lol One third thinks any% isn‘t speedrunning because glitches Second third thinks nemz doesn‘t have skill because he does any% Last third understands how different speedrun categories work and know that you need a tremendous amount of skill to do any run in any category

[@refertopfp9627]

What about the portion that thought every group was just really fucking annoying?

[@guymcchazz9861]

btw Nemz now holds all 8 ds3 world record categories, including all bosses, so even if you think this is cheating (which it isn’t, it’s an any% and glitches are not cheats) know that Nemz is probably one of the best ds3 players out there, and the glitches used were just for the any% and his raw skill can be seen in other speedruns (he’s done so many)

[@dtsnelson]

This is what always bothers me. People hate on any% when it's got to be viewed more like a puzzle, but then don't look any further to learn that most of the time any runner with a good any% time will have top times in most other categories. Like just assuming people are bad cause they don't beat the game you want to is ridiculous.

[@guymcchazz9861]

@@dtsnelson Love your explanation, you're absolutely right, it is more of a puzzle.

[@CB-lw7ty]

@@dtsnelson I don't think I've ever seen anyone hate on any% speedruns for it just being cheating and the person doing it being bad. It's generally a point of relevance as to "completing the game" where Elden Ring for example you can essentially spawn in, teleport to the end location where you drop through the floor and end of the game within 30 seconds...so...whats the point in that record? Is it cool that you can break the game in that way to do it in 30 seconds? Absolutely, but you haven't "speedrun" the game you've just broken it. It's a general argument of even when you are speedrunning a game someone watching should be able to tell you generally what happens/you go through, in the game, whereas any% speedruns someone could watch this and have no clue on 90% of the game because they're just running underneath the entire thing so you haven't got from the start to finish PLAYING the game in the fastest time possible, you've just broken the game at several points. That's the general mentality I've seen for people who hate on any% category.

[@-entr0pY]

@@CB-lw7ty This is why people create different categories lmao, you can say the category is shit, nobody is saying you cant do that, people are just laughing at the absolute inbreds that think this is in any way "cheating" since it is clear that a ANY% run is supposed to be exploit heavy.

[@CB-lw7ty]

@@-entr0pY Honestly I think people just being able to create different categories is actually a part of the issue why speedrunning isn't seen as main stream or popular as it could be. People like simplicity, so when you have something like WR 100m sprint, nobody is confused who holds that record and what that record consists of. When you get to questions like "who's got the WR in Elden Ring" all of a sudden it's "What patch, what %, blindfolded, console or PC etc etc" it feels like it completely invalidates speedrunning as a concept when anyone can just make any category they want and you have 50 answers to 1 games WR. I feel like speedrunning community needs to come up with what is considered a "speedrun" which becomes the only record and official time while everything else just becomes cool experiments and videos just for the sake of interest than trying to be a WR.

Dude his chat thinking they know everything about electrical conductivity.... they are all like "ICE IS WATER, THEREFORE ICE IS AS CONDUCTIVE".... My profession is in electrical theory and this is literally far from the truth.... A super cooled coil of copper is MUCH LESS conductive than regular copper. Now water is not copper which i get, but the whole point is electricity is temperature based. Electricity loves heat, but hates cold.

[@lonewolfhero3526]

Kinda interesting how that also happens in Genshin Impact. If you want a big boom, combine fire with electricity (i theorize that due to electricity loving heat, combining said elements just boosts the electric element at such a stupid degree that it violently explodes due to the massive conductivity that the fire element produces, kind of like a fuse being fried and then exploding)

[@swimfreakcmb]

@@lonewolfhero3526 well realistically speaking, fire and lightning don’t react off eachother because the science is a bit more specific than that but in theory yes, it would.. and I’m sure that’s why Genshin elements have interactions like that.

It's a glitch speedrun. Gotta keep in mind as of time of recording he was currently in the middle of his first playthrough. Unlike us souls vets that know these games in and out everything in this speedrun is literally brand new to Asmon

[@Orros]

Awww man watching these dark souls speedruns bring so much nostalgia :') I remember back when I was in elementary and all i had was an xbox and a fuck ton of games but the only game i enjoyed playing over and over again was Dark Souls 2. There was a catch tho. My dark souls 2 was in japanese and i couldn't, for the love of me, find an english version. So i literally memorized every item, every enemy, every drop, every key item and where to use them. I played the game so many times that i once beat it without taking damage and only using fists (i know that's not very impressive now but it was a big achievement for me) Damn this brings alot of memories :')

[@rdelao1287]

Not very impresive??? That was awesome... I just enjoy not been killed for 5 minutes or more LOL

[@shinysnivy6604]

This comment screams bs. No way someone beat the game without taking damage and with only his fists years before even a normal no hit run was done. Unless you have evidence you are talking out of your ass.

[@Orros]

@@shinysnivy6604 i remember doing it because i saw somewhere that you get a ring for not dying so i thought "hey might as well do one with no damage and no weapons" and since it was the only game i play all day every day for like 2 years *i think* ,it kind of felt natural. unfortunately, i didnt get to record it because younger me didnt think it was such a big thing but if i ever find my old xbox, i can take a photo of the ring i got from it whatever that's worth.

Actually, water does not conduct electricity. Pure water that is. Water from natural sources always contains some dissolved ions. Only with those ions inside, water conducts well.

[@thomaskeller1799]

Concerning conductivity, they are completely different. Ice is not conductive at all while water, as long as it isn't pure, is conductive.

Yeah this statement is completly true. Ice is not the same as water EVEN IF made of the same molecules and shit. The same way spaguetti and macaroni are two different things. Doesnt' matter if they are made of the same material, they are diferent and everybody knows that.
