pannenkoek's new video is cool but it sure has a lot of men screaming their heads off because they fell down in super mario.

in reply to @lexyeevee's post:
there are a lot of people who perform or compete in (especially Nintendo??) games who haven’t made peace with the jank in their game of choice. like Melee players will get so salty about dumb stuff that happens in that game and yet they refuse to even play on the latest patch. being able to laugh stuff off instead is much more fun for everyone involved imo
To be fair, past a couple in the intro, just about all the speedrunners in footage from the later examples shown in the video react with pure surprise and zero anger; plenty of them are able to laugh it off perfectly well even in circumstances where pure chance costs them hours of effort
I can't say I blame anyone for failing to maintain a sense of stoic acceptance about setbacks when they're doing the same thing over and over again for hours while timing themselves.
they did choose to turn a video game into a tedious brittle slog. like this wasn't inflicted on them
yeah i kinda didn't need the montage of people getting mad at invisible walls, 1 or 2 would have been fine
like i'm just not on this particular video for that type of thing you know?
it's cool to see that this weird hit-or-miss phenomenon does happen in the wild, but it felt like the clips got louder and angrier as the video went on and it left me with such an unpleasant vibe afterwards
