It’s too bad that he still feels the need to steal the thunder of Summoning Salt by literally stealing his style, yet never linking Summoning Salt in the description only mentioning him by name, even though he could definitely just ask him to do the speedrun history video, which would grow the speedrun scene overall instead of just lining his pockets.

For the first couple days, there were about 20 or so people completely focused on finding C13 skip. We tried everything- clipping through every door, trying to use doors you weren't supposed to access to clip into the wall, and so on. I think at the time I was the closest to getting it, and at about 2 a.m. I decided to throw in the towel. Congrats to Ontrigger for finding something actually usable, because the old clipping method was truly awful. To everyone who was trying to clip alongside me, thanks for making it interesting. (Ellie, Toph, Broiiler, just to name a few.) I played until my capture stopped working, and that's enough for me.

I genuinely think you need to start a Moist E-Sports bi-monthly sponsored speed running competition. I don't do these runs and am not in the SR community in any way, but this level of community interaction, reward, competition, and recognition is obscenely good. So is your narration and the editing on these. It's a perfect melting pot for something even bigger.

[@alessandrofasoli3175]

As someone who followed the competition closely and had the pleasure of seeing many of the world records live, i have to say this is one of the most tech-dense speedruns ive ever seen, expecially if you consider most of it was developed in the span of two weeks. this video goes over the main glitches but probably covers less than half of them, and even more were in development but couldn't become usable in time. to give you an idea, a glitch that allowed to permanently load an entire level and to overlay it on top of another one was being worked on. other ones allowed you to have the bazooka in one hand and a gun in the other, gain control in a 3rd person cutscene and more. i highly reccomend joining the discord and participating/contributing to these challenges.

Charlie, I've been watching your videos for about 14 years and I just want to highlight how much I admire what you do. 11 year old me would never have guessed that the deep-voice monotone "What's up everybody it's critikal" guy would be forging entirely new paths in many industries. A pioneer in backyard wrestling, bringing competitive slapping to the masses, wielding Moby Huge Akimbo™, film & TV critcism, and now placing financial incentives on obscure gaming speedruns with insane results.

[@TheNightcrowsNest]

[@TheGameReview217]

You pretty much created a speedrunning scene for a game that totally deserves it. I've never played it personally, but the game looks so janky that I think it was an absolutely perfect pick for this competition. So much was optimized in such a short time

[@kas3700]

These speedrun videos are absolutely awesome. I really love how Charlie credits people who contributed important skips and the people fixing performance issues in this case. Seeing the timeline of who got a specific skip working and how it impacted the competition is honestly the best part of this for me. It's amazing what speedrunning communities can accomplish by working together and sharing information.

[@t-royjenkins5650]

The way Charlie sits back and let’s the final run do the talking instead of talking over it is truly some sportscasting skill

[@Triistone]

Its crazy that when a community puts their workshoes on that this kind of stuff just happens so quickly. in 2 short weeks we went from an over 1hr long run to almost sub 20minutes. insane. grats to winner and i hope the next one is even close to what this absolute banger was!
