Just wanted to say how awesome it is that you've started cutting out the 10 minutes of donations and people sitting around at the start of each video. It's so nice just to be able to jump right into the gameplay now!
GDQ staff, wanna say I greatly appreciate this year’s archives being edited so that gameplay starts near the top. Editing these uploads in post must take a lot of volunteer time, and I want to let you know that it is noticed!
xPessimism yo mate what's the band which shirt you were sporting? Looks like some dank slam shit and I'm not sure if I know this one. Anyway, great run, cheers!
About as ironic as having a Speedrunner named Carcinogen whose main series to play is about a deadly viral outbreak and bio-terrorism on the couch for a charity event about preventing cancer.
You lucky sod. At first I thought the runner was a bit blah, but I soon realized that he is just supremely chill and laconic with a very, very dry wit. Thank you, sir, indeed.
1:02:48 "Sometimes you gotta sweet talk those zombies, you know. They're used to getting blasted with shotguns, grenade launchers, pistols... Sometimes you gotta sweet talk them, and then they'll be nice." Immediately after saying this the spider doesn't attack him.
@@ectothermic to the point. You are right. 1 clear example he lost focus when he forgot the wooden shield which cost him 1 minute and risking a zombie by passing him 2 more times. He was not enough paying attention to his run. Just to be clear, not trying to bad talk the runner, he did great but other runners need to focus on more fast paced games.
@@clockztickin everyone claps for big donations (bc their big donations). we're talkin bout that he said thank you to every donation including a Fiver. Don't see many runners doing that.
I really enjoy that Pessimism is so chill yet never allows the quiet to set in during the run, be it donations, couch or his own "Please, sir. Thank you" Professional entertainment for a great cause :D
David Carper This meme pisses me off. You should know something: if Pessimism didn’t want me on his couch the last two runs, he could have told me to fuck off any time, but I was invited back every time because we’re friends and he wanted me to commentate with him. It’s honestly amazing that I have to tell people this. idk where you people get the idea that we’re fighting over each other and that I never shut up, but CVX and RE0 are terrible games to commentate because nothing goes correctly as one is supposed to demonstrate. This time we actually rehearsed everything we were going to talk about because I WANTED him to talk more. My entire role was to help elaborate, as it has been. I literally made a career out of speedruns and commentary full time but he’s better at REmaster speedruns than me so I wanted him to take the lead so people like you would quit making the comments section about painting me to be the bad guy and he could get the recognition he deserves.
Kyle B I put in the work and paid money out of pocket to go to this event. You stayed home to play PoE, CSGO, and eat mommy’s tendies all day. If you want me to quit commentating you better get to work.
tbh i really like you not shutting up(sounds aggressive this way but believe me its not in a bad way) since sometimes pessi can be really focus you can give us good information on whats going on, and when he cant talk you can give us information on what´s going on, so yeah i like pessimism running with you on the couch talking or you running talking about whats going on!
Honestly I like what carcinogen does on this one, he fills up people what pessimism is doing when he's focused on what he's running. I dunno why some don't like getting rilled up with information which is critical in the game.
omegaweapon116 you mean Top Dollar? I don't see that much resemblance...Top Dollar has straight hair and a thinner facial structure, Pessimism has a wider face and wavy hair
Right? "Thank you, sir!" He's so polite, even to the zombies. Even refers to them as gentlemen, even when they're trying to eat his tasty, tasty brains.
BTW, for anyone curious, Rebecca(/RebeccaRE) (the one who comes in from off camera) is actually a Chilean RE runner, with a ton of records in those games. So, I don't think English is her first language, which is probably a big part of why she doesn't say much.
I had never heard of this specific speed runner before, but after this run he became one of my favorites. He is super super nice and polite. I appreciate that! Much love, Pessimism. :)
Watching a guy who literally holds every single world record for speed running a game is quite the treat. A true master of his craft. You love to see it.
I love Pessimism, and how awesome that CarcinogenSDA was on the couch as well. For those who haven't yet, you should check out Carci's channel. He's got some sick RE runs to envy. He's also a featured runner by Capcom. Was one of the guys who commentated gameplay of RE2 Remake with some other great guests on the couch, Carci on the controller. That said, Pessimism killed this run and a half. Sick runner, great dude. Not much more needs to be said. :)
It's amazing how he makes it look so easy. I'm currently in the process of getting the platinum for PS4 after I haven't played it since 2016 I think. It's really helpful to watch a professional at work when going for the
Oh my God! Pessimism, it was amazing run! I hope you are looking forward to do a proper Resident Evil 2 Remake speed run in the future. I just can't wait to see it happen!
Loved this game so much but I have forgotten so much of it I can’t believe it now my only sharpest memory is of coming around a corner and a hunter frog lizard thing instantly taking my head off with that jump swipe attack they one shot u with. It was traumatic I threw the controller fell outa chair. Loved it.
Due to the fluctuating start times of runs during the event, I missed the first 10-15 mins of the run live, so I came here thinking "I'll just watch the first bit, so I'll have seen it all" and yet here I am at the end of the run again, good looooooks my dude
If there is anyone that still plays this game trying to get Don’t Stop Running or Pacing, I have today 100% confirmed that you CAN in fact pause the in game timer to take breaks. I have only confirmed this on PS5. It’s also quite simple. Keep the game open but switch over to UA-cam. This puts the game in a frozen, suspended mode. You can test this by opening a door and immediately switching to UA-cam. When you switch back, you can clearly see that the door animation resumes where you left it.
I just had to hop on and tell you how much I liked this run. Pessimism is the homie w/o even knowing him. Most donations ever read during a run. Good look brotha.
In 1.17.37 he's at the final part of the game, I have barley collected the death marks by that stage and I can finish it on the original cube version In under 4 hours!!! To unlock the fire and beat the game Rocket launcher..... Absolutely insane speed run. From obviously a very nice geniue person who is also an amazing speed runner. 😁😁😁😀😀😀
1 thing I’d actually love to see in future GDQ videos, is them mentioning the world record time for the category. Just so we know how well they did for a marathon, instead of everyone just going “that’s great for a marathon”.
No offense to Pessimism or anything but he sounds baked af. However i did love how he thanked every donation and was very polite to everyone even the zombies(XD).
hes the only runner i have heard actually saying thank you for donations while playing...the other runners always seem to be more interested in telling you whats going on(which is good an all) but donations are more important.
Yeah, I get they are trying to concentrate and all, but sometimes these people donate huge amounts to their favorite runners and they can't be bothered for a one second, "thank you". Like come on, the only reason you are there is for donations. Saying thank you won't destroy your run.
Runner introduction starts at 00:12. Run starts at 0:30.
Games Done Quick I'm so happy y'all are doing the comment thing now.
Just wanted to say how awesome it is that you've started cutting out the 10 minutes of donations and people sitting around at the start of each video. It's so nice just to be able to jump right into the gameplay now!

Hello everyone. I appreciate you taking the time to watch the run. Much love.
xPessimism yo mate what's the band which shirt you were sporting? Looks like some dank slam shit and I'm not sure if I know this one. Anyway, great run, cheers!
TheCeglowka hello. The band is Gravitational Distortion. They are a Canadian Slam band. Definitely check them out!
TheCeglowka also, thank you for your words and time!
Very entertaining run mate, you did a stellar job
Man i thought i will be bored with your run but honestly i enjoyed it thank you for the good run and keep it up!
Excuse me sir
Thank you sir
I love this guy
I find it ironic that a guy named Pessimism is such a positive person. Seems like a great person!
About as ironic as having a Speedrunner named Carcinogen whose main series to play is about a deadly viral outbreak and bio-terrorism on the couch for a charity event about preventing cancer.
Metalheads are some of the nicest people. It's just one of those ironic things.
I watched this from beginning to end live. I like how the runner is so courteous to the enemies.
"Excuse me sir." "Thank you sir."
same
You lucky sod. At first I thought the runner was a bit blah, but I soon realized that he is just supremely chill and laconic with a very, very dry wit. Thank you, sir, indeed.
Sir, please, if you'll move over here?

That’s karmic energy at work.
Polite man takes a stroll through a zombie infested mansion.
LMAO Those Green Herbs Man ;)
Johnathan Joestar ?
@@ahmedboukhalfa288 no he fights vampires
I love how he actually responds to the donations, it’s so refreshing to see a runner not just focus on the run but on the event itself
@@ectothermic Huge W by Tea Lizard btw
Tea Lizard makes a good point... there isnt even time to read donations in a game like half minute hero
@@ectothermic You're right. IGNore the trolls.

Appalled to see Pessimism's channel so low on subscribers. He's definitely the most charismatic Resident Evil speedrunner there has ever been on GDQ.
Very humble and cool runner one of my favorite runs so far for SGDQ 2018
I really enjoy that Pessimism is so chill yet never allows the quiet to set in during the run, be it donations, couch or his own "Please, sir. Thank you"
Professional entertainment for a great cause :D

His voice is one-of-a-kind for a speedrunner IMO. Metal-fueled goodness.
Man, Pessimism seems like such a nice guy
Mah-Dry-Bread - Gameplay & Streams! He is 😊
Kinda reminds me of the bad guy in The Crow
Mah-Dry-Bread - Gameplay & Streams! They way he claps his forearm 😂 spot on

I followed this step by step and cleared the game 2 hours and 17 minutes. Thank you Pessimism for all my newly unlocked goodies : )

26:11 LOL
"He's not dead my friends"
"Oh my god!"
"Now he's dead"
once he dead, now he ded
Quality game.
Quality run.
Quality runner.
Enjoyed thoroughly.
It amazes me how good this game looks for being made in 2003. It’s still jaw dropping today
It can look even better with the REupscale mod.
Fixed camera angles babeee
Im playing the gamecube version on a crt right now and its such a vibe, this game is so beautiful
Ah, those epic Pessimism arm slap applause!
Awesome run!
what a genuine and kind dude, bringing us a super impressive run!
that mouse juuuuuust peeking in on the right edge of the screen tho, i see u
Now I can't unsee it you tool!
Wow this mouse :DD
you ruined an hour of run...
Personality wise this dude might be my favorite runner out there
I had never heard of this specific speed runner before, but after this run he became one of my favorites. He is super super nice and polite. I appreciate that! Much love, Pessimism. :)
"Much love, thank you for your time" is pure ear candy. Pessimism, much love to YOU, and thank YOU for YOUR time... much, much more love to ya.
Best moments when Pessimism had the audience over the edge.
26:11 He is not dead my friends.
39:21 Oh it worked. No Way.
Wow, I’ve never heard so many donations read for one run, Pessimism is a champ!
Watching a guy who literally holds every single world record for speed running a game is quite the treat. A true master of his craft. You love to see it.
Pessimism is such a nice guy :) So refreshing to see the runner thank all of the donators, and even the enemies in the game when they co-operate!
Much love, brother.
Christopher Redfield, why hearing his full name sounds so weird? 😂
Solid run and commentary by Pessimism. Best coupled with Carci's couch commentary! More from this duo! 💪
Eccezionale! Ti stimo tantissimo, hai fatto delle azioni che veramente mi hanno sorpreso, per non parlare del tempo totale di gioco! Good Work!!
I really like this guy. So polite and humble. :) Clear voice and explained everything very clearly.
I really love how the talented runner controls when donations are read and that he thanks them all. Classed unsurpassed!
I love me some Games Done Quick. Never gets old.
One of the best runs to watch. Carci on the couch and the the chillest runner of SDGQ so far. Good to see Rebecca too. These videos brighten my day!
In all my years of playing Resident Evil, I have never heard anyone call Chris “Christopher Redfield.”
I was waiting for him to call Jill, Jillian Valentine.
2nd time I heard someone call Chris "Christopher" 1st time was Lucas in RE7 Not a Hero and It was so weird to me for some reason but funny.
Runner is a super chill person. Shout outs to him.
Jesus christ... That damn white dot off on the right side made me think I had a dead pixel... Shit was about to get trashed, great run though. 👍 ♥
Thanks, now I cannot unsee it -.- ;-)
1:01:41 Computer cursor is escorted out 😂
lol when he attempted to remove the cursor from the screen (around 25mins or first boss) and fails, leaving the same sliver on the edge of the screen.
This dude is so chill, and funny, love it😂
Awesome run! After watching this I followed everything step by step to get my the speed run trophies on PS4 XD. Much love, thank you sir!
best Resident Evil HD Remaster run ever! awesome runner!
A vicious mutated monster swings his claw at your face.
"Calm down sir"
XD
"Nooo! What are you doing?!"
Pessimism : Whoa guys, chill. I got this.
7:30 "Korean back dash" Love the tekken reference there by carcinogen
Nods to Aris lol
Been watching AGDQ for a few years now but this is absolutely a great run to watch. Pessimism just seems like a cool dude, makes it that much better.
Pessimism the nicest and coolest runner I ever see!
This run doesn’t get old, much love :)

So I just figured something out the blue lights on the timer are counting in binary.
Due to the fluctuating start times of runs during the event, I missed the first 10-15 mins of the run live, so I came here thinking "I'll just watch the first bit, so I'll have seen it all" and yet here I am at the end of the run again, good looooooks my dude
Man, this runner is great. Really like his attitude, it makes him so unique
This run was so nice to watch and listen to that I'm watching it through a second time! Which isn't something I usually do.
This guy is the chillest guy on earth
Great run! Love the Sanguisuggabog shirt!
I like how polite the speedrunner was to the zombies.
Thank you SIR!
absolutely amazing run. Glad i wsa able to see this one live
Awesome runner and couch combo! Pessimism's chill demeanor goes great with a speed run.

This runner doesn't live up to his name. He's a well versed extremely polite dude. Very cool run!
The runner is a gentleman and one hell of a RE speed runner.
*violently spanks arm*
The way he just grabbed the mask in yawns room and left… like I didn’t know you could just do that. Man all that ammo I wasted..
Great run from a great runner. Despite his name Pessimism had such an infectiously positive attitude.
Chris descending from the stairs is more scarier than the zombies.
2024 anyone watching?
Here
I just had to hop on and tell you how much I liked this run. Pessimism is the homie w/o even knowing him. Most donations ever read during a run. Good look brotha.
Oh my god I can't believe I'm seeing a Gravitational Distortion shirt!
I probably have to wait for them to speed run re2 remake i bet there will be a time trophy for that RE as well.
Mr pessimism thank you for spelling your band and thank you so much for the donation for asking, GOOOOD LOOOKS
This guy is a pleasure to watch. He explains a ton of stuff about the game and is able to speedrun it at the same time!
Pessimism's attitude is giving me hope.
In 1.17.37 he's at the final part of the game, I have barley collected the death marks by that stage and I can finish it on the original cube version In under 4 hours!!!
To unlock the fire and beat the game Rocket launcher.....
Absolutely insane speed run.
From obviously a very nice geniue person who is also an amazing speed runner.
😁😁😁😀😀😀
This dude sounds a lot like Eugene from TWD lol!
Martín Rearte "I do believe a thank you is in order for that donation."
Pessimism is my new favorite speedrunner
Good Looks!
Rex Colt good looks B)
goooood looooooks
1 thing I’d actually love to see in future GDQ videos, is them mentioning the world record time for the category. Just so we know how well they did for a marathon, instead of everyone just going “that’s great for a marathon”.
100% agreed
thank you for your words, much love, thankyou,
whattaguy. thank you sir. goodbye.
This remaster is better than resident evil 2 remake and this is 20 years old
You can tell this guy has been watching too much Gachimuchi. "THANK YOU SIR"
YES SIR
He fights plant 42 at 42 minutes into the run. I think that's neat
Christopher Cross Redfield
can I just say that pessimism seems like such a nice guy. very polite :)
53:58 - That Aliens quote! 🤭
boi, he so chill and cool, and he have a deathmetal band, what a guy, cheers dood
the first time I played this game it took me an hour to get to the point he is in five minutes
Truth 🤣
Pessimism is the kind of guy I would like to hang out with.
One of my favorite gdq runs :)
No offense to Pessimism or anything but he sounds baked af. However i did love how he thanked every donation and was very polite to everyone even the zombies(XD).
my bro carci

Maxylobes does that too :)
Mike Whittemore i thought the donations were for a cause. they go to the runner?
@@EvanMstr it goes to cancer. But some people save money for certain runners
Shoutouts to the guy who can't help but laugh when Chris vibrates up or down stairs.
Pessimism and carci stay having the best runs at gdq’s
What a man, what a runner!
Back when Chris didn't have Anchor arms
Excuse me sir, thank you sir. What a nice guy
crazy they kept the door sequence. i guess some would hate it being gone (and a good way to still load each room)
