Скачать или смотреть Saving Lives and Saving Frames: How Speedrunning Rules Twitch Twice a Year With GDQ

Watching a speedrun can be... boring.

You watch the same 20 seconds of the same game over and over. And over. Only to witness the speedrunner reset it and do it all again. All because he was a pixel off of perfection.

But twice a year the Games Done Quick charity streams make speedrunning exciting. For a week straight GDQ takes over Twitch in a dazzling display of pixels, capturing the attention of thousands, and raising millions for charity.

GDQ effectively functions as the Super Bowl of speedrunning, showcasing the best the community has to offer, and the product of all those long hours of practice. Since beginning in a literal basement, Games Done Quick has grown into a powerhouse, pulling in hundreds of thousands of concurrent viewers and over 30 million dollars for charity, overcoming controversy, COVID and a bit of cringe in the process.
