Re: Audio game speed running
@bgt lover:
I've never played The Gate myself, only saw a couple let's play episodes. Didn't seem to really have the depth, complexity or artistic coherence I expect from my full-price titles so I didn't want to pay for it.
Could probably be a decent speed running game. Because it's a very one-dimensional side-scroller the routing would probably be a little to boring though. The only thing where you really could show some skill would probably be the boss-fights.
Actual speed running is more than just playing fast. It is developing skills and strategies that really break the game and sometimes seem impossible for casual gamers. I am not sure if The Gate provides that.
Also are the cut scenes skippable there? Aaron tends to love his cinematics to much to make them optional. The Gate has a lot of them and that could make the grind for a good time really obnoxious.
I'd however totally watch a speedrun of The Gate. Maybe I am wrong with my assumption.
