This should be the monologue that speed runners hear when they break the game
-
He should patch this into the game. If the game detects your beating the game several times really quick it plays this speech as they are speedrunning it
-
Imagine being his roommate "Bennett I'm gonna run to the store want anything?" "Most would think that wanting is intrinsically destructive, but, in fact, it can be credited with the creation of--"
-
This guy has a pleasant, soothing voice. It must be so relaxing to listen to for an extended period of time.
-
I love how Bennet started with “real quick while this guy is getting warmed up” and then when he was done the guy had finished.
-
This isn't a reaction, it's a lost sound file from the game
-
Rather than break it over their knee, it’s more like they find an exact pressure point and break it to shreds with the flick of a finger
-
It's funny, but speedrunners probably appreciate a game more than any other person. They study it, admire it, research it, all into finding the fastest way to break it. It's serious dedication.
-
I love to see how the dev just talks quietly about how the brain of a speedrunner works metaphorically, while the speedrunners is on cocaine
-
I have no intention of ever playing this game that intends to drive you completely insane but I do love this developer's point of view and the way he elegantly wordsmiths his thoughts.
-
Never thought a dev reacting to a speedrun would bring a tear to my eye but Bennett's wise words sure did.
-
"while this guy is getting warmed up" video finishes before he finishes talking about his relationship with speedrunners
-
"And then having understood it perfectly, they break it over their knee." I don't think there's a more accurate way to describe hardcore speedrunners XD
-
I love Bennet Foddy's take on this, so many people miss the fact that a speedrunner 99 out of a 100 times loves and understands the game they are speedrunning before they destroy it.
-
He probably didn't even see this speedrun, it's just him talking for a minute and a half about how speedrunning is cool to him
-
*"To truly destroy something, one must come to know it more deeply than it's creator."*: Some Zen Game designer probably.
-
Speedrunner: beat his game in minutes Ben Foddy: reacts in narration
-
This should just be titled Bennett Foddy narrates Getting over it speedrun
-
This dude is just badass as hell with his thought process.
-
At no point does he actually comment on the run itself. Just waxes poetic about speedrunning.
