  • Speedrunning is an immensely precise Hobby. RNG is inherently random. Despite being completely at odds with each other, RNG is an essential part of speedrunning. This is a story about the lengths speedrunners go to overcome the odds...

    Genuinely awesome video! I really liked the section of testing a frame perfect pause! Interactivity like that is super cool! And I think you did an awesome job of covering the different types of RNG and how they affect runs.

    I have at best a casual interest in speedrunning, but the way you explain a variety of tactics and end up connecting them to science and philosophy is fascinating

    While this isn't the first time I've seen a youtube video use "pause the video at X time" to represent frame perfect inputs, this is the first time I noticed that, for whatever reason, sometimes it was just taking a notable amount of time before actually pausing, and IDK if its the YT player, firefox, some extension I'm using, what, but RIP anyways.

    The frame timing segment has me convinced that there's a good chunk of input lag on pausing UA-cam videos. No way I'm always like 5-6 frames late

    13:45 I couldn't believe on my second try I stopped it in the right spot twice in a row. I literally said "no way" out loud to myself. My wife looked at me like I was crazy and now I feel dumb. Please tell me I'm not the only one that actually tried the frame perfect stop more then once. 😔😯😆

    i literally stopped the 30 fps wheel first try. i dont even know how. but i guess thats what happens when you speedrun smb1 and frame perfect loses its meaning. us smb1 runners really be saying "its only 5 frame perfects" lol.
