      I think he's just trying to edit out all the tedious deaths. We see him struggle a bit, and then we see the run where he wins. I don't really see the problem with that. Hell, he left in the clip in the beginning where he just jumped straight on top of spikes, so it's not like he is just editing out his flops.

I have watched the Anti-Amogus PSA but it might already be too late. Its has spread too far, hiding into the roots among my own body cells. My brain may attempt to suppress it, but it will find a way out somehow.

    I'm very curious to see the reaction you have after saving all the grubs. If you do save them all, that is. They're pretty well hidden, and completing everything in this game is not easy. Especially not the extra content added after 1.0.
