RE: Games Done Quick - Moonface - Jan 16th, 2024
I've been aware AGDQ was live, but usually I only care to check in if someone else on Twitch that I'm subbed to isn't live. I had the stream up yesterday when the FF15 run started which looked incredibly boring for what little I cared to focus on and even the Twitch chat were saying it was a rather bad pick because apparently the run is rather bland.
I'd say more than any of the runs I'm curious to see if they're gonna continue to hold the event hostage for incentives to get met or if they might for once learn their lesson with those, but I won't be holding my breath.

Oh, were they holding back incentives again? I didn't notice during the MKWii run as there wasn't really one for it and PMTTYD run met their incentive before the runner got to the area where they could get Flavio. Did see some random interviews in the schedule which might take time for incentives to build up but if there is stalling again, that's bad.

If they do stall for time for incentives again for this event it probably won't happen until closer to the end of the event when the incentives have higher targets to hit. I know for AGDQ last year the longest stall was for one of the very last incentives of the event and it was almost an hour if I recall correctly.

Ah yeah that one happened towards the end of the event, it's worse for those in person but still no reason to delay a run if the incentive isn't met. Pokémon Diamond/Pearl is the next incentive and it's quite low currently at the moment but has 3-4 hours left until the run begins, there better not be an incentive on last few games/very last game or if so not have the same repeat this time, we'll see this Saturday/Sunday.

For anyone curious, the official game/run list for SGDQ 2024 has dropped: https://gamesdonequick.com/games
Crash Nitro Kart has my attention because I'm curious what tech that game has and how much of it is similar to the stuff in CTR.
Enter The Dungeon being a race should be interesting assuming it will still be randomized, so it won't just end up being a race where once someone gets ahead the race aspect becomes irrelevant.
I'm curious how the Stardew Valley run works. Does it start with everyone already at the entrance to Skull Cavern or does the run have to start at the beginning of a completely fresh save?
SMW race is always a highlight that will absolutely be a run I won't miss even if it's the only thing I watch from the entire event.
Overall I'm not picking out too many runs to look forward to only because what I watch ultimately comes down to the schedule. Hopefully it isn't too long before that drops.

I do believe the schedule is expected to drop next Wednesday, May 8th, as a draft because I believe the 2nd round of submissions to the games list is expected sometime during mid May? These are for games released after like, mid-February. I don't believe the schedule will deviate too far from the draft, but I expect a couple of times to shift around as a few more choice things get added.
Anyway I'm going again this year, only for half time as I think a week was more than enough last time x_x

I'm not sure if I'll attend this years SGDQ or not, but if I do I hope it's better than last year where I spent the majority of the days there with horrible migraines. x.x
