>"ok here's the most self-indulgent video I've ever made" >spends half the video talking about the shoulders he stood on >spends the second half of the video saying "I think I did alright" Blessed lad. Was fun to watch another old guy see if he's still got it :)
Cheers dude. It's funny, well into our adult years, seems like most of us wouldn't recommend spending time on video games like we used to. Every once in a while though, we get a reunion, a record, or simply a great playthrough that takes us back, if only for a little bit. I liked hearing this story about how you got yours.
There's a difference between "self-indulgent" and "earned glory". You absolutely deserve to make a video like this when you establish a world record. Well done, dude, and congrats.
I don't speedrun any games. When I watch runs, I enjoy them the most when there's commentary explaining the techniques, strategies, routing, i.e. commentary explaining the thinking. When the message is "here's what I did and how I did it"-and not just "I'm awesome"-there's nothing self-indulgent about it; it's exactly the speedrunning content I'm hoping for. [Other great examples: Ocarina of Time by (then) Cosmo Wright, in 22m38s; and blindfolded Mike Tyson's Punch-Out by Sinister1, explaining all the opponent patterns, sound cues and the like.]
Great to see you back with another great video! It kinda surprised me to hear that people challenged your qualification on doing a channel such as this. Your track record and knowledge of the game is clear enough for people to see, if they want to... Either way, congrats on your new record!
Wow what a great video and congrats for an excellent and well deserved record 😎 this was also a great personal nostalgy trip to the days of my quake speedrunning. Haven’t done a speedrun myself for 20 years and this map was one of my favorites. Glad to be featured in the video. Huge respect and keep up the great work! Perhaps I will try speedrunning myself one day again too…? Lets see 😉
Thank you for the new video and sharing a bit of your history! You did it in a very humble way, and I think your fans are all happy to see content like this, despite you saying you never really wanted to talk about yourself. Keep up the great work!
> Sets a record > Stops playing for 19 years > Comes back and set a new record > Refuses to el… Well actually no, you elaborated a lot, but that makes it even better. Thanks for this great video!
This is my third rewatch of this video. I really really love the core message of this video so much i think we all get caught chasing goals in life and how much we value our time but theres something so potent about leaving your mark on something you loved and moving on with your life and that still holding a place in the history of it and being happy for those that come after. It makes me appreciate the process of it all, its not about being the best so to say and more about being apart of something and sharing your passions with others. I can't put into words how much i appreciate this channel and this video
This is now my favorite Quake video, period. The editing and stylistic direction is just top tier. The storytelling is amazing as well. Both style and substance. Not to mention, you get to brag about yourself.
I wish there were a Quake mod review channel that looked at ancient mods with your same style and smooth voice. Relaxing, engaging... if you made a mod review channel I'd be all over that.
Back in 2004 we had some of the early optical mice but they weren't as good as the laser mice are today. Keyboards, too, improved from membrane to mechanical ones optimized for gaming. While you didn't touch on this topic, it probably made a difference at least in the consistency of the execution.
I always look forward to these. I don't mind that they take time to produce as it makes them more special One thing I would mention, you didn't state upfront which difficulty the run was on. Those of us in the know will understand you are talking about Easy 100% judging by the fact that there are only 14 enemies but I always wonder initially if you are talking about Easy 100% or Nightmare 100%. It might help to state this upfront to avoid confusion
congratulations! First speedrun video I saw was QDQ Movie 16:35 I don't know which year I saw it firstly, but yes this time still in my mind many years till today and it absolutely blowed my mind. When I saw it first time, it was absolutely insane. I've never been so good for this times. Get quite close at "easy" on some maps, but nightmare? Never :) great to see new records. Quake 1 is best game I ever played. First game which is fully 3D (except only 4 same sprits in last level of 4th episode). Amazing game which still so many years on my disk. Sometimes I install it and play from beginning to end, but "at quite normal speed" :D . Your videos take me back to my young years (I'll be 42 in few days). Thank you for take my old memories back in every video from you. Great to see that Quake scene still live
Dude....the fact that you came back after a long break, learned/relearned mechanics and shaved a full SECOND off your record is insane. Shaving a full second off of a record, PERIOD, is wild. Awesome video and well done man.
dont ever think for a second that your own experience with the game isnt as valid as someone else's just because you arent as good, especially when you've held a record for _19 years._ it's something ive said on a few other speedrun history-related videos before, but it's always a really hype moment in a video on speedrunning history when the person talking in the video mentions *their own* accomplishments in said history that they are passionately talking about
to be totally honest, I never heard of qake before like one week later when i just put the fraze, watched one video about quake history and your video showed, I oppened it and i can say that your vids are great, i learned many things from them about quake which i never thought is so damn interesting, te music, the scenes and amount of informations which you easily put in my head is awesome, thank you for being here and making this content
Man, I never doubted your qualifications, with your ability to analyze, describe and explain the speedruns. Now this is epic, not only you know about it, you practice(d) it and you even hold a record yourself. Hats off!
Another great video, absolutely adore this series. Those serene guitar chords of the intro/outro echo the glow of satisfaction that come with having poured your heart into a run that'll truly stand the test of time. Anyone who has ever speedrun anything can relate to that feeling, and it's hard to communicate that feeling and all the history behind it, but you nailed it as always.
Wow. I've been following this channel for a while, but I had absolutely no idea that you are Connor. That's wild. Absolute legend! All this talk about power bunny hopping makes me think a video on the history of bunnies would be interesting to do as well. I never could quite get the mechanics down even in the old days but now I guess it's even more technical.
I liked it, regardless of any feared self-indulgence. Your video concept was interesting for a reason I find Karl Jobst's similar content interesting - beating one of your old WRs is historical, on top of the regular fun of seeing a run broken down into each fractional time-save. I like your speedrun analyses in general, and this one has that extra spice from its backstory.
Something so immensely, viscerally satisfying about how smooth this game is to this day makes watching these videos as an outsider to the genre a treat every time. Always will have a great deal of respect for it.
Amazing! Been following the channel for a while, (been a fan of Quake since 1996 but never really looked into speedrunning that much until relatively recently), so it's super fascinating to see your personal history with it. I found a lot of your videos really show the emotional aspects of speedrunning too, which is a huge deal. Also as a student and a musician, the "boring" stuff amused me a lot XD Brilliant video and awesome playing, a record well deserved 💖
5000 views to 900 likes ratio at the time of viewing demonstrates people love what you're doing. The history of these old demos is fascinating. Thank you for doing what you do.
"Self-indulgent" he says, and then proceeds to give an eminently-listenable yet technically-excellent summary of his run and the history behind it. I'm no speedrunner, never really have been (I'm a completionist, my gaming instincts are wired in the exact opposite direction), but I can respect the skill, execution, and technical knowledge on display here.
Great story and great video, congratulations! This brings back memories... I was never into speedrunning, but Quake was my teenager game. The sheer amount of mods, maps and other stuff I had (in fact still have, I managed to keep it unchanged for about 20 years!) was enormous. The game if I remember correctly was about 50-60 MB back in the day, all stuff I had totalled at about 600+ MB (btw. as a perspective - 2-4GB HDD was standard back then). So for a today's AAA 100GB game, you would need about 500GB of addons. Obviously this is not tremendously hard to do, but mind you that was at the time when I had no internet connection and 56kbit dial-up was best-in-class and expensive as hell! Good times!!
Thanks for explaining, I don't understand shit when I watch these at full speed, and even with 0.5 it's shabby. So it's really useful. And congrats on keeping your throne! Also I was watching Muty's full game run the other day, and holy shit that guy is good. Even on a full run he hits most of the tricks (of course not the super hardcore ones you don't even try on those).
Legendary man, absolutely legendary. The kids now aways are crazy with movements even over here in cod. I went to the world championships for Halo CE back in 2003 played halo 2/3 at MLGs til 2007 and I'm coming back to show I csn still hang by getting this very nuclear achievemt 20 yrs later lol trying to prove I can still hang with some old school style. Ur challenge to beat your old time is epic. This is prlly my favorite video of yours and I love the breakdown on still but ya this was personally epic this one.
Nice to see you have it still in you. Must have felt very nice. And thanks for the background, it really adds a lot to your channel. I have never played quake but I'm fascinated by Speedruns, the precision, the engine quirks, the frame perfect timing. I really like to see it and you present it in a very chill and informative way. Much appreciated, keep up the good work.
Beautiful run. You've nine inch nailed it. Nice that you're back, even if for a moment. It's great to know that the old games like Quake and specific hobbies like speedrunning is alive and well. I miss my days in the first Unreal Tournament. So much fun, frags, frantic fights and friendships.
Underatted channel! I'm so happy youtube recomend me one of your videos few months ago! Since then I watch every new video on release. Congrats for the record and many thanks for the great content!
I don't like to rest on my laurels either, but you have definitely shown yourself to be a selfless positive contributor to the scene. Just like you've showcased other runners old and new, you're also part of that history so it's good to hear about you too. Glad you got this one, may your record stand for at least a long while :)
I would argue that having a record then and making a record now is proof enough that you are definitely among the top speed runners, despite your humility stating otherwise. While other runners may tout superior movement skill, I think that having the mind to analyze a run and find/solve time sinks as you did is the skill that really creates WRs. No amount of fancy footwork is useful if you don't know where to use it. Great work!
Thanks for this amazing video, incredible run, and the sincerity and striking emotional depth you bring to all the entries in this series. Also, at the moment I’m watching this the video is 4 hours old with 1,337 views. Nice.
Great original run, great work breaking your own record after two decades, and great video! I've played Quake since it came out, but I can't figure out bunny hopping. 😞 I'm quite decent without using that technique, but I would love to learn how to do it well. I've tried learning bunny hopping a few different times, but never managed to improve my accuracy (able to start a bunny hop about 1 out of 30 tries, and I usually mess up and lose speed instead of gain it... once in a while I can get a speed boost).
You're allowed a moment of self-indulgence from time to time! Great story and thanks for the entertaining videos. I'm an appropriate age to have played Quake but I never did - still learned a lot about speedrunning the game from your channel.
Dude's a fkn rockstar? but says "I did bunch of boring stuff in my life, but now I can finally return to quake speedrunning". Also I love how calm and melancholic his voice is even when talking about his best run. You can barely feel any emotions only around 15:21-16:00
>"ok here's the most self-indulgent video I've ever made"
>spends half the video talking about the shoulders he stood on
>spends the second half of the video saying "I think I did alright"
Blessed lad. Was fun to watch another old guy see if he's still got it :)
What you do here on this channel is important, it is called art, and thank you so much for it.
I couldn't agree more. I'm currently rewatching this series as it's so relaxing. You have a great voice and pacing for narration. Excellent stuff
Honestly didn't know much about quake speedrunning before this channel. It's been very interesting learning the intricacies of it.
Doom and then Quake invented speedrunning.
The way he speaks about it, makes it entertainment.
Same stuff buddy, but it's sooo relaxing and satisfying to watch
Same boat
welcome to the know
Cheers dude. It's funny, well into our adult years, seems like most of us wouldn't recommend spending time on video games like we used to. Every once in a while though, we get a reunion, a record, or simply a great playthrough that takes us back, if only for a little bit. I liked hearing this story about how you got yours.

Great to see you back with another great video!
It kinda surprised me to hear that people challenged your qualification on doing a channel such as this. Your track record and knowledge of the game is clear enough for people to see, if they want to...
Either way, congrats on your new record!
Thanks! To be clear, almost no-one was rude about it. Just casual viewers who were curious :)
Wow what a great video and congrats for an excellent and well deserved record 😎 this was also a great personal nostalgy trip to the days of my quake speedrunning. Haven’t done a speedrun myself for 20 years and this map was one of my favorites. Glad to be featured in the video. Huge respect and keep up the great work! Perhaps I will try speedrunning myself one day again too…? Lets see 😉
Ilkka! Great to see you here. Thanks for the inspiration over the years :) Yes I think everyone would love to see a demo from you again!!
You definately left your mark in Quake speedrunning. Glad you gave it a shot. ❤
Wow, I like your videos a lot, but knowing your history just added up a lot to the history. Keep us entertained, my friend!
Thank you for the new video and sharing a bit of your history! You did it in a very humble way, and I think your fans are all happy to see content like this, despite you saying you never really wanted to talk about yourself. Keep up the great work!
One of my favourite channels. I feel very lucky that something so perfectly tailored to my interests exists.
This video was especially good. It's rare to find anything as well explained as this
We want more. Master story teller. So chilled. Congrats dude from a fellow oldy.
I stop everything when you upload a vid, my man! Looking forward to this one
> Sets a record
> Stops playing for 19 years
> Comes back and set a new record
> Refuses to el… Well actually no, you elaborated a lot, but that makes it even better. Thanks for this great video!
Beautiful run! Glad to see one of the OG legends still has it in him to compete at the highest level!
I love your slomos, especially with multiple runs on screen at once. It really demonstrates the improvements visually.
An absolute vibe of a channel.
Speedruners are different kind of breed god damn you people are amazing, the dedication is always something insanely inspiring
This is my third rewatch of this video. I really really love the core message of this video so much i think we all get caught chasing goals in life and how much we value our time but theres something so potent about leaving your mark on something you loved and moving on with your life and that still holding a place in the history of it and being happy for those that come after.

I can't put into words how much i appreciate this channel and this video
really good video, you are helping the quake speedrunning community a lot!
Watching your videos makes me want to try speed running as a fun lil hobby, not to get to the leaderboard but as a personal growth/achievement
Give it a try! :)
Absolutely love your videos, thanks for telling your own story and giving us a bit of your own story with this marvellous game!
This is now my favorite Quake video, period. The editing and stylistic direction is just top tier. The storytelling is amazing as well. Both style and substance. Not to mention, you get to brag about yourself.
Man, I so enjoy these videos.
I love that you're always telling your stories in such a calm voice, really relaxing despite the content being such split second accuracy requiring.
I wish there were a Quake mod review channel that looked at ancient mods with your same style and smooth voice. Relaxing, engaging... if you made a mod review channel I'd be all over that.
It's nice to have the record explained by the owner himself! Thanks for sharing all this insight!
Man... the intro music is SO good! Glad to see a new video uploaded!!!
Back in 2004 we had some of the early optical mice but they weren't as good as the laser mice are today. Keyboards, too, improved from membrane to mechanical ones optimized for gaming. While you didn't touch on this topic, it probably made a difference at least in the consistency of the execution.
yep, it's a different game with modern mice!
Your channel singlehanded got me playing quake
Thank you for the videos!
wow! that kill at the end is crazy! I love the recam, looks great!
Love your channel, and congrats on your new record!
I always look forward to these. I don't mind that they take time to produce as it makes them more special
One thing I would mention, you didn't state upfront which difficulty the run was on.

Love the Podcast Style narration explanation with the history of the speed-runs. Would watch more, beyond just Quake!

i like your video style with the psychedelic guitar interludes and slow storytelling. one of the best of the summoning salt inspired speedrun channels
Criminally undervalued channel
Another great video, absolutely adore this series.

All this talk about power bunny hopping makes me think a video on the history of bunnies would be interesting to do as well. I never could quite get the mechanics down even in the old days but now I guess it's even more technical.
It took me weeks just to finish Quake at all, on a SEGA Saturn in 1997. I like the chilled out delivery in your videos; it's pretty relaxing :) .
whoa it's like christmass! congratulations and thank you for supporting awesome speedrunnners community ! ::)
I liked it, regardless of any feared self-indulgence.

You are a mad man, I really love this record. Nice video bro!
Amazing! Been following the channel for a while, (been a fan of Quake since 1996 but never really looked into speedrunning that much until relatively recently), so it's super fascinating to see your personal history with it.

Brilliant video and awesome playing, a record well deserved 💖
Fantastic video! Thanks for your time and effort into making it. The music fits perfectly as well. Congrats on the run!
Grt,
Quake player since 1996
5000 views to 900 likes ratio at the time of viewing demonstrates people love what you're doing. The history of these old demos is fascinating. Thank you for doing what you do.
I don't Speedrun, but I love quake and simply enjoy your content. Please keep it up. :)
Great stuff as always. I like the personal approach to this one
I always love to see more quake videos in my feed
Interesting story. Also explains why the music you've picked is so good.
This was amazing dude, you're pretty rad!
"Self-indulgent" he says, and then proceeds to give an eminently-listenable yet technically-excellent summary of his run and the history behind it.

Don’t feel nervous about featuring your own runs, holding the record for decades more than qualifies you and it’s an interesting map to explain
Legendary man, absolutely legendary. The kids now aways are crazy with movements even over here in cod. I went to the world championships for Halo CE back in 2003 played halo 2/3 at MLGs til 2007 and I'm coming back to show I csn still hang by getting this very nuclear achievemt 20 yrs later lol trying to prove I can still hang with some old school style.

My knowledge never went too far past the odd QDQ vid so it's been a real treat to get some understanding of the specifics. Great work on the new WR/PB
thank you for sharing yourself, i was hoping to see something like this someday!
Always nice to see new quake speedrun video.
Nice to see you have it still in you. Must have felt very nice. And thanks for the background, it really adds a lot to your channel.
I have never played quake but I'm fascinated by Speedruns, the precision, the engine quirks, the frame perfect timing. I really like to see it and you present it in a very chill and informative way. Much appreciated, keep up the good work.
Congrats on the run. Really impressive!
another great video, seriously underrated channel, you should have 100x as many subs
Beautiful run. You've nine inch nailed it.
Nice that you're back, even if for a moment.
It's great to know that the old games like Quake and specific hobbies like speedrunning is alive and well.
I miss my days in the first Unreal Tournament. So much fun, frags, frantic fights and friendships.
Was interesting learning more about your speedrunning history! Keep up the good work, Connor!
Now it makes sense as to the music / band in the videos! Hi from Australia/home.
That was wonderful. Awesome shit bud!
Awesome! Thank you for this content and also for sharing your life experiences with us.
What a badass run.
Love this channel
Underatted channel! I'm so happy youtube recomend me one of your videos few months ago! Since then I watch every new video on release.
Congrats for the record and many thanks for the great content!
amazing run and amazing video woww, you're one of my absolute favourite channels on here
makes me wanna get back into rta runs ahahaha
I don't like to rest on my laurels either, but you have definitely shown yourself to be a selfless positive contributor to the scene. Just like you've showcased other runners old and new, you're also part of that history so it's good to hear about you too. Glad you got this one, may your record stand for at least a long while :)
This is amazing man! Great content, great editing, great narrating. And congratulations on both keeping and retaking the record.
Stay awesome man.
This run is absolutely nuts.
GG! And thank you for the great explanations! Absolutely fascinating!
Had no idea you were a speedrunner yourself. Building up this channel and then doing this.... epic!
I would argue that having a record then and making a record now is proof enough that you are definitely among the top speed runners, despite your humility stating otherwise. While other runners may tout superior movement skill, I think that having the mind to analyze a run and find/solve time sinks as you did is the skill that really creates WRs. No amount of fancy footwork is useful if you don't know where to use it. Great work!
Congrats man, really good job.
Hella atmospheric video, well done!
Guys!!! The master is back with another video!!!
beautiful video as always. well done
Thanks for this amazing video, incredible run, and the sincerity and striking emotional depth you bring to all the entries in this series.
Also, at the moment I’m watching this the video is 4 hours old with 1,337 views. Nice.
Your videos and your skills are amazing! Thanks for all the details shared.
Love you dude) you make Quake 1 community a little bit special) keep it up❤
Love this video! Fantastic way to show credentials, even though your videos are good enough that you shouldn’t need to have any skeptics!
sick run legend love your channel
Congrats on a great run /Martin
As always, thank you for these awesome and informatives videos!
Great original run, great work breaking your own record after two decades, and great video!
I've played Quake since it came out, but I can't figure out bunny hopping. 😞 I'm quite decent without using that technique, but I would love to learn how to do it well.

Best channel about Quake speed runs ❤
You're allowed a moment of self-indulgence from time to time! Great story and thanks for the entertaining videos. I'm an appropriate age to have played Quake but I never did - still learned a lot about speedrunning the game from your channel.
Beautiful video, congrats on breaking and maitaining your record.
thank you very much, I really enjoy watching your videos :)
Congrats on the niiiiiice run, and thank you for another great video! I always look forward to these when they pop up :)
Dude's a fkn rockstar? but says "I did bunch of boring stuff in my life, but now I can finally return to quake speedrunning".
Also I love how calm and melancholic his voice is even when talking about his best run. You can barely feel any emotions only around 15:21-16:00
