Honestly I find it really grating to pause in the middle of a gaming video to talk about that shit. It's weird and parasocial and not what I come to speedrunning analysis videos for. My feelings and mental health are no KZbinr's business. After the first half of the video was intercut with an ad, an unfunny sketch and a Patreon plug it made me uninterested in watching the rest of it. Shame because the actual speedrun-related content is interesting and well-presented.

I have fun learning all these cool tricks that I'll never practice in the game.

considering that moment tends to be one of the most stressful moments of the game for new players, it's an amazingly appropriate place to place a motivational speech.

[@kinorris1709]

This is something he does every time. The "no feeling is final" speech is an important part of his video, and he always finds a place for it. Mental health is a volatile subject, being that straight about it while maintaining positivity is difficult, and he drives the nail in with 1 strike.

[@Szokynyovics]

Yes. O.o

To be acknowledged and believed in by my friends, pets, family and people from instances like these, help to carry on. I have a hard time seeing self worth in myself, but I know it's there.

Tomatoanus is so good at documenting these runs, I feel like it would be the most amazing to have him document that 24+hour final fantasy 8 (I think) marathon that happened a few years back. It was hilarious and awesome and filled with all kinds of craziness.

24:34 "Also this spaceship is big enough to have a tram in it, what the f?" -- This is where I died watching this. 🤣

No other speedrun commentary or editing will please me like tomatos wholesomeness

Around 11 mins in…when you asked how we are…I don’t think you realised how much I needed to hear that. That was such an unexpected part of the video (first video of yours I’ve watched). Thank you

I remember seeing this run at a GDQ a couple years ago. The runner was so sweet and fun, and even got the double pin. What a wild SR, and shoutout to the mad lads who run it!
