    Runway agent was home to GoldenEye 007's oldest record of all time, standing for almost 16 years. Several weeks ago, this record was beaten in one of the most shocking runs of all time. Today we will delve into the history of runway agent and how this milestone came to be.

    When I hear "this technically works but isn't really something you want to rely upon" in speedrunning, I know for a fact that means "this run will eventually get so tightly choreographed that people will have no choice but to rely on it". Because that's the pattern I keep seeing.

Not only do you fascinate us with your knowledge and skills, as well as your research and in-depth understanding, but you also tell us a story with such immersion. Sometimes I get so into your videos that it almost feels like I am the one clutching these world record runs and it is a video about me. I feel the adrenaline and the thrill.

      This is how I got through the treshold of mild curiosity to genuine intereste. Speedrunning is cool but requires a fascinating and immersive package to get through initial indifference. The first time I watched goldeneye speedrunning snippets they bore me to death, running with face down, licking walls all the time, nothing exciting or intruiging. Frigate video had good enough story spiced with expertise to keep it interesting enough to cross that barrier. I still am not a big fan of goldeneye speedrunning but I enjoy the journey, the creativeness and persistence of speedrunners and the story.

    "Speedrunners have optimized the level run. How could they possibly improve on it?"
    _New glitch, strategy, or understanding of game results in new record_
    "How did we not see this before? But surely now the level is optimized and cannot be improved!"
    _The process repeats_
    While I could never speedrun these games (I still have trouble with 00 and Perfect Agents on a good day), I love how the community never gives up and continues to find new things.

Pop up ads still exist. Java has been nearly eliminated. FunnyPart isn't really a thing anymore. But the more things change, the more they stay the same.
