Whenever Larry isn't in a Pokemon game, people should be asking "where's Larry?" but unironically

I haven't seen much on the Switch recently besides Tears of the Kingdom, and wow this Pokemon game looks real rough. Isn't this one fairly recent, too?

I own a few games for my switch and they're fun, but yeah. The switch is weak as hell and it shows.

So what is baron of shell? It's the only thing from here to the finale that I'm not already hyped for. I don't recognize it.

Based on the name and who's running it sounds like a Mario romhack full of shell jumps.

There's gonna have to be some bullshit to save the zelda BOTW run. Twitch donation? Or maybe just admit you set poo poo too high this year and run it even though it doesn't get met.

It may be, there's normally a big surge at the end, but 600k in 4 hours and change is pretty rough.

Is the concept here that some of the locations / actions that usually have stars, just don't, and you're searching areas with the greatest density of possible star spawns?Agent355 posted:This is the grossest mario color palette, a crime. Looks like a rejected Ben & Jerries flavor

Every are has the same number of stars it normally has, but they're shuffled within that area. He's routed out which 70 stars he's looking for to avoid 100 coins tars or red coins of bad areas or w/e. So he'll know that there are, for isntance, 4 easy to get stars in TTC, he'll grab those then move on. They're random and he doesn't know where they are, but he knows there are 4 that'll just be hanging out and 1 in a box or w/e.

Ok yeah, this suffers badly from the "almost impenetrable if you haven't played the rando" syndrome that so many randomizers have. Still, it's SM64, and it's always fun to watch Mario bop around real fast.

LTTP is still the best and most understandable randomizer, nothing else quite matches the magic of that for me.

i feel like shen is the wrong guy to be on this couch, i like him in chill pokemon runs but we need someone with more energy who can better commentate what is happening

I really don't see mario maker happening, that incentive amount feels so out of touch Like are we even hitting 2 mill?

https://gdq.alligatr.co.uk/comparison/ We're currently behind SGDQ 2017 (which didn't hit 2 million), and we're not seeing the donations pick up as much as they normally do at the end. It does feel a little dire dire docks. I was hoping that mario 64 would pick it up but this is the wrong category and wrong couch for that. Way too low energy for primetime final day.

Yeah, and I'm enjoying the run tbf, it's just the wrong energy for final day. Elden ring better do work, I think mario maker is an easy win but I want to see elden ring have a higher energy couch to get people more pumped up.

I strongly suspect we're also going to run into problems with the finale donation rush, simply because the final run is now starting at 2am Pacific time. Hard to build hype toward the finish when everyone is either asleep or dragging. Agent355 posted:LTTP is still the best and most understandable randomizer, nothing else quite matches the magic of that for me. Agreed, that one feels quite legible, though part of that has to be that I've played LTTP so many times and haven't touched SM64 since I was little.

Zelda 1 randomizer is also pretty good in that respect, since the dungeons can be randomized but the overworld isn't (in geography, enemies can be) it mostly speaks the same language as the base game but recreates the exploration factor.

It's kind of homophobic how Mario says "so long, gay Bowser" like that.

# ? Jun 4, 2023 02:08 |

That whole run raised like 30k I wanna see it pick up.

Yeah agreed. I think the trick to randomizers is you need the base game to be pretty clear in progression. Bombs open bomb walls, hookshot crosses gaps. Games that don't that (like m64) are missing the psuedo gambling excitement of 'oooh, will the next chest have the important item', and games that are too complicated and/or have glitches that break that format badly (like zootr) become hard to follow. It's a fine line IMO LTTP:super metroid combo randomizers or multiworld set ups are good marathon fodder IMO
