Nice vid! Your video on Stop ‘n’ Swop from awhile back actually got me to try running the category back in October, and I now hold second place on the leaderboard. Thanks for inspiring me and others to try out some of these crazy runs 😄

[@MortexBerri]

When you said “the most broken town in video game history,” it played a cyberpunk 2077 ad 💀

[@MDLuffy1234YT]

Cyberpunk is relatively glitch free nowadays. But it still doesn't excuse the horrible standardized crunch and Release Now Patch Later practice that devs are doing nowadays. Psychonauts 2 is a shining example of how games should be developed. With zero crunch and with all of the bugs that could harm a casual player ironed out.

[@KopperNeoman]

​@@MDLuffy1234YTPretty sure it's DEI, not crunch, that leads to lacklustre releases that need patching. Too much crunch leads to health issues, but not that.

[@drzerogi]

Out of curiousity, I asked Chat GPT and it said that Megaton in Fallout 3 is the most broken town.

[@Alexander_Grant]

Bittersweet to see Paper Mario stuff from someone else I really like. Stryder7x was one of my favorite channels on KZbin, still go back and watch the absolutely hilarious baking a cake for 4 and half years video.

[@IllegallySam]

[@jellomochas]

The "skew" glitch sounds more like spawning displacement than skew

[@singlevidonly]

what actually happens is the loading zones keep Mario's angle from where he takes the loading zone. So if you hit a loading zone on the left most side of it, Mario enters the next zone from the left side of the loading zone, walking towards the center. So log skip works because of the far angle you take because of being out of bounds and landing back on the left side of the shop

[@LetustheDragon]

Watched this and my Paper Mario crashed... was rather weird as the N64 isn't even plugged in, and the cartridge isn't even in the system.

Getting the hammer isn't a side quest: you're forced to do it to continue the main quest. So, getting the hammer is part of the main quest. Side quests are optional missions.

Hey you can trigger chapter 5 by going to the docks and using lzs and an skewed entrance angle to get put of bounds and enter the whale load zone on any chapter

[@varietychan]

I wish some things were more explained. Like how Jr. Troopa Skip actually requires you to check the front of the bush, checking the back will have it fall flat so you dont get the hammer. Some like the Log Skip are wrong, the way it works is you touch one of the areas of the loading zone one frame, you don't fall under it.

[@mork6668]

I really like this glitches videos, wether I play the game or not!!

'being pushed by NPC's' doesn't need an apostrophe. Apostrophes are possessive, not simple plural. If in doubt, leave it out.

[@noneyabidness9644]

Not a horror story, but I had an "imaginary friend" that turned out to be the deceased ex owner of the house. We learned about it when her children who we rented from came over and saw me talking to the corner. My dad told them that I was talking to my imaginary friend, Dot, she's a maid. They said they inherited the house from their mother, Dorothy, that everyone called her "Dot." She died of a heart attack in a chair in that corner. She worked as a house cleaner until her death. We moved shortly thereafter, when two voices spoke to my mome while she was laying in bed reading. They told her we needed to leave, as my life was in grave danger. My mother waited up all night until my dad returned. They argued, as my dad said he just renewed the lease and would lose the deposit, but my mom said he can stay. She and us would be leaving in the morning. My dad gave in, asked for two weeks to find a new place. We moved three days later.
