I Entered a Twitch Plays Pokemon Race

[@RTGame]

If you would like to see more Pokemon: I'm starting a Pokemon Black & White Nuzlocke when this comment is 1 hour old www.twitch.tv/rtgame Gen 5 of Pokemon is the best one ever made and my alltime favourites. It's also some of the hardest Pokemon games ever made. I'm so excited

[@StickMaster500]

Oh wow, didn't think you'd be doing a nuzlocke of this game this soon just because of Scarlet and Violet coming out soon. But can't wait for it nethertheless!

With how antagonistic Daniel's chat is to him, and with the additional threat of sabotage, i think that happy meal is the main reason he won. I expect a 10 hour happy meal stream.

It's amazing how we overcame the odds with animations on and default text speed, it's amazing what the power of bribery with McDonalds can do. Sad news however, RT actually tried to get the Happy Meal for chat, McDonalds didn't have it ready and 4 different UberEats drivers gave up, he's going to be making us a pizza at some point

[@Adowrath]

@@denos1699 Yeah in the next stream he told us the story, McDonald's reported the food was ready but 4 drivers tried to pick it up, waited and then had to drive off because they were wasting so much time (they get paid per job after all). Dad just got refunded after all this.

[@justsomejerseydevilwithint4606]

Fun Fact; Dan had animations on, and none of the others did. He learned of this early on, and decided to STUNT on them by not turning animations off, and winning anyway. AND HE DID.

[@galactic-hamster7043]

And even better was that he TOLD Chat that if they really wanted animations off, they'd have to do it themselves. Absolute madlad

[@ColdspaceDog]

The fact he won even with the disadvantage of both animations on and medium text speed, imagine just how much faster he would be with them off and faster text

[@kevinwong3672]

I mean as much as it is slower, but it does allow RT to steer the wheel better, since chat can do less action. Clearly, RT is pro Chat gamer XD

[@hngldr]

I was gonna say I wonder if that helps chat more with the delay and helps him do more on his turn. As they say, slow is smooth and smooth is fast

[@inkyisdreaming]

What isn’t included here that was a part of the full stream is that although RT had battle animations on, with medium text speed, all the other competitors had no animations and fast text! So if everyone had the same settings, there would have been no challenge at all!

[@CR-gh5bp]

More animations means less opportunities for chat to do battle moves, tho l

[@Let_Toons]

More animations/text speed meant less time for chat to mess things up, and with Dan on control he could just spam A more efficiently than hecklers stuck with the text

[@Pikaton659]
