This run is super cool. I love speedruns that require the runner to actually know the game and not just their run. It's often that I see runners getting destabilized when their routing is disturbed because they have no idea how to do things normally. Seeing a run that require you to adapt on the fly is really nice.
I think it's a lot more interesting to see how complicated and exact a route can get, with people pushing each other to execute highly specific inputs. But this type of run is certainly less common, so it doesn't hurt to have it around.
+Louie Salmon - Both sides have their pros and cons, and both are very interesting to watch, in different ways. As a fighting game player, I most certainly have a ton of respect for the insane input control these runners have, but as Laezar said, it's also pretty cool to see someone be able to react and adapt due to knowledge of the game as well as the run.
Yoshi's Island is sort of a dead category now, as far as I can tell, but one thing I liked when it was really competitive was that every runner would come in with their own styles - which meant that when mistakes happened, they could still rally and get good times. Like the poster said above, I think there's something nice about both styles - really tight sequencing and people being adaptable. I wouldn't mind seeing "adaptable" speed runs more though - and I wonder if maybe someone could invent some sort of category to make it more frequent.
This runner, commentary couch and even announcer were all a delight to watch and listen too. Fantastic commentary and seemingly kind and wholesome people, I love it
Couch guy on the left is probably the ideal couch commentator. Doesn't interject when it's unnecessary, has charisma and can speak without being awkward or shy and most importantly, knows the game well and can explain long things really well when the runner is too busy to explain
@432prohis speedrun of Silent Hill 3 was legendary. If you haven’t watched it, watch it all the way til the end for a wholesome unexpected surprise lol
Survival horror games, particularly RE and SH, are notoriously difficult to break. This game is a lot less rigid with how you have to progress than other titles, but still a very tight game.
I think holistically this is my favourite run, commentary is great, chemistry between everyone is awesome. I still come back to watch this in the background every once in a while
Carci is probably one of the greatest speedrunners, both technically and personality-wise. So easy to watch and enjoy. Thanks again for this amazing run Carci!
I really love how the announcer does a great job at reading the donations!! And her voice is really soothing to listen. I don't know who she is, but cheers to her for being an amazing part of this amazing run!!
Personally I loved the fact that it was a stressful run. We got to see him route on the fly, deal with unexpected dangers, and STILL come out on top. Plus it looked like the game actually scared him once or twice!
This was so good! Wish I caught it live. Commentary was both helpful and funny, and the runner's adaptations made it seem very fluid and not mechanical. THANKS!!
I keep coming back to this run every couple months just because of how entertaining it was. Easily top 3 all-time in my book along with HeyZuesHeresToast's Bloodborne run from this same AGDQ and Bryonato's Titanfall 2 run from SGDQ 2019
Old comment I know, but also wanna point out that most box drops are random, so having to improvise what weapons you have ammo for and whatnot is all important, and this had an uncharacteristically high amount of shotgun ammo to the point where handgun ammo was dry. There was enough unexpected rng to mess up lesser runners, so it's even more impressive how simple he makes it look after the Mia fight (which goes so incredibly south most runs would've ended in a reset or death right there)
Ive rewatched this speed run so many times. Everything was great in it. Seat edging gameplay, great runner, amazing couch, and even the announcer was interesting and had a little personality of her own.
I underestimated just how hard that fight with Mia was going to be until I just started playing on Madhouse. Absolutely insane how many bullets she can take to the face.
I love watching speedruns of horror games because it's the only way I'll ever see the whole game. Especially of RE7 this game scares the absolute crap out of me to actually play myself and this is such a great run. Carcinogen is amazing to be able to not only smash this game on the hardest difficulty but also to provide commentary of his strats while he figures it out on the fly like that.
I’ve never really been into watching people play games but this dudes really nice because he knows lots of interesting details about the game. Great video.
Here’s a Louisiana fun fact: Louisiana has more swamplands than anywhere else in the world combined with the biggest swamp being Honey Island. And apparently, according to local legends, a monster lives there but I need some confirmation about that.
carci is one of the best speedrunners, he truly understands the games and knows how to work in them rather that just learning how to progress he learns the games ins and outs

@@AntiNubDevice fighting games are all about reacting and adapting after all.
A runner who isn't afraid to be himself. His name is also amazing considering what the money is being donated to.
I'm just imagining granny standing up and spriting super fast carrying the chair to the next spot she will rest
Regular Person I’m imagining her just hoisting the chair up above her head and high-knee sprinting around the corner behind Ethan’s back.
Isnt she the random footsteps you hear while exploring the house?
I mean her tissue is 8 years old about so
This runner, commentary couch and even announcer were all a delight to watch and listen too. Fantastic commentary and seemingly kind and wholesome people, I love it

random dude in the background : oh no!
Sean K. Tech Dude thank you for catching that because I didn’t and it’s great
he was getting really invested
This was such an amazing and fun run, both the runner and the couch were so active and they were on point with the commentary
1:14:05 LouisianaGuy, whoever you are. You’re more Louisiana than me. I never would have thought about those facts and a recipe.
Jordan Hollins Louisiana is the best x3
Bars.
1:53:50 for the best part of this run :D
Zachary Skyrimhouse posted 12 seconds after the run was uploaded. Seems legit.
But it did crack me up! Thank you.
Gotta Go Fast.... :P
That was actually the first time in awhile that I legitimately laughed aloud. Thanks for mentioning it!
HAHAHAHAHA
Yeah that was amazing
Mega props to Aprilcake for the donation reading and for helping keep all our blood pressure down with your soothing voice!
NintendoCapriSun you are awesome 😎 Tim.
Holy shit is that the real NCS!?! Tim you’re awesome!
aprilcake's voice is really so amazing
It was weird when no one except the runner clapped or made any discernible sign of recognition for the $350 donation.
so happy :)
This is the most glitchless speedrun I've ever seen.
Idk if u can glitch RE games that much
Survival horror games, particularly RE and SH, are notoriously difficult to break. This game is a lot less rigid with how you have to progress than other titles, but still a very tight game.
@@ryanolsen294 RE 7 heavily scripted, and requires lots of key items to pass certain checks. Hard to skip through something like that with glitches.
I think holistically this is my favourite run, commentary is great, chemistry between everyone is awesome. I still come back to watch this in the background every once in a while
I lost my grandmother to cancer last week, so it’s so nice to see people donating to such a beautiful cause.
realy like carcinogen, been watching tons of these agdq/sgdq vids, and carcinogen is one of the top runners in my opinion, just due to his niceness
Carci is probably one of the greatest speedrunners, both technically and personality-wise. So easy to watch and enjoy. Thanks again for this amazing run Carci!

Some people would call the events in this house disturbing.
In Finland we call it tuesday.
Random Guy JCI we don't talk about Monday...
can we talk about wednesday though
Is that a Street Fighter movie reference
@@TheOmegaRiddler I remember it as the day M. Bison destroyed my village
Carci runs are always great, even they they don't go super well. Normally his runs on stream go mostly perfect other than the occasional Jack-N-G
Personally I loved the fact that it was a stressful run. We got to see him route on the fly, deal with unexpected dangers, and STILL come out on top. Plus it looked like the game actually scared him once or twice!
I've watched probably every GDQ run of the past like.. 3 years and this is still my favorite run of all time.
This was so good! Wish I caught it live. Commentary was both helpful and funny, and the runner's adaptations made it seem very fluid and not mechanical. THANKS!!
The super random "WEEEeee....." from the announcer at 1:23:20 is so great
“This is a long ladder, but we only have to do it once”
Re7: *sucker punch*

If you haven’t, check the tomatoanus fallout anthology run from 2020.
I love Carcinogen. He reps this great series in such a satisfying way every time.
I keep coming back to this run, and I love it everytime! One of my favorites
This guy runs through the game making every step look easy. This game really requires attention to detail to be able to speed run. Major credit Carci.
Old comment I know, but also wanna point out that most box drops are random, so having to improvise what weapons you have ammo for and whatnot is all important, and this had an uncharacteristically high amount of shotgun ammo to the point where handgun ammo was dry. There was enough unexpected rng to mess up lesser runners, so it's even more impressive how simple he makes it look after the Mia fight (which goes so incredibly south most runs would've ended in a reset or death right there)
This was an incredible run and he handled the pressure of things going wrong extremely well.
Ive rewatched this speed run so many times. Everything was great in it. Seat edging gameplay, great runner, amazing couch, and even the announcer was interesting and had a little personality of her own.
Watching this live was so hype. Carci is one cool dude
wat
If anyone's making any GDQ highlights videos, 1:44:13 should definitely be in it.
This is probably my favorite run I've watched from a GDQ

Top 10 anime betreyals

Alucard is that... is that really you? You did come back after SoTN!
Legit one of the most entertaining SpeedRun in GDQ 2018. Carci always up to the hype
Of all the people of all time, Alan sure is one of them.
I underestimated just how hard that fight with Mia was going to be until I just started playing on Madhouse. Absolutely insane how many bullets she can take to the face.
She might as well regain health when you shoot her.
Masterful run. Carci is truly Real Police Dude
I still watch this like once a month, an amazing run
*gets head chainsawed off by zombie girlfriend*
“Whoop, that wasn’t supposed to happen!”
"Fear is the mind killer, fear is the run killer"
My man
Damn I always love watching Carci play, it's always eventful. I wish I were able to see him stream more often. Need to get back to the Spooder men.
We need Carcinogen back, this run and him were glorious.
Amazing runner,host,audience & couch.
My favourite runs are the "Woah, what?" Runs

Louisiana guy is bae.
This ain't it cheif
CHEIF
thanks for this new Louisiana fact
best run this year imo
Takes him almost 2 hours on madhouse
Takes me 17 hours on madhouse lol
Only 15 hours away, you got this💪
H P we Need more positive people like you 😂
Love Carci's professional take on running games. Just found out he did AGDQ. Great way to hunker down for the evening!
I like rewinding a few seconds at the jump scares and seeing if the people in the crowd also jumped
I’ve never really been into watching people play games but this dudes really nice because he knows lots of interesting details about the game. Great video.
This run had me on the edge of my seat the whole time
Love the fact they do a new game and not newgame+
This run was really enjoyable like i seriously felt entertained the whole time
44:20 No matter how many time I watch re7 speedruns the jump scares get me every time. I may have just pulled a muscle 😂😂
Ok wow this was the most exciting unpredictable run I have seen this was awesome
Great runner! Keep it up man
Cant stop watching this, every few months i come back to watch this amazing run
I’ve seen this run 5 times already. One of the best GDQ moments I’ve seen ever
I can't wait to see speedruns of Village
Carci playing and punchy on the couch. Loved it. Thanks for the run!
He's actually entertaining to watch
Great run, great couch, smooth commentary. Huge props to the runner.
1:44:10 is my favourite part.
Farhan Ihram Jebaited
Here’s a Louisiana fun fact: Louisiana has more swamplands than anywhere else in the world combined with the biggest swamp being Honey Island.
And apparently, according to local legends, a monster lives there but I need some confirmation about that.
Really like this guy! I enjoy his knowledge and commentary while simultaneously speed running.
One of the best runner so far
1:43:30 "...still in a dream, snake -sorry" haha, that mgs3 soundtrack is catchy for sure
carci is one of the best speedrunners, he truly understands the games and knows how to work in them rather that just learning how to progress he learns the games ins and outs
Which requires multiple Playthroughs and good memory; really great work.
I cant believe it's been 6 years since this happened
This was the best run of AGDQ. That and SDW and Bloodborne.
i feel like the guy running this is jon from garfield
Fantastic speedrun Carcinogen! Everything was incredibly enjoyable
Such an enjoyable run to watch.
2:15:23 I think she says "I just wanted a family" Thats it what I heard when i got to this part on my playthroughs.
I absolutely loved this video!
Res Evil 7 has become my favorite game recently despite it being 2018 :)
Is This Luigi's Mansion 3?
The king of legend yea
It’s a remake of 1 and exclusive to the n64
theres been rumors of it releasing on the virtual boy
Certainly not, it's obviously Kirby adventure.
harvest moon
1:53:50
Eveline and Carcinogen go to hyperspace. Thank me later.
Such an incredible run! Loved every second
Never seen a run so unpredictable.
Favorite run. Carci earned a sub. Cool dude!
Best GDQ run ever
One of the best speedruns IMO, I watched this as soon as it premiered
"Optimization #3: NO HAND!"
Who needs hands? Make you go faster.
Boy I sure do love it when GDQ leave like 20min of dead air instead of just starting right at the run in their videos.
2:12:25 this was the best commentary on that voice i ever heard, cranks me up everytime
I did not know Punchy was on the couch and the second he started to talk I knew this run was going to be amazing.
That was a great run, even with one death it was awesome. You did amazing.
AGDQ should have a VR Speedrun. That would be hella cool.
Do they have VR games at all?
@@jerrodshack7610 This one
After doing the S+ runs in RE2, watching these speedruns is always so satisfying.
Hands down one of the best runs of modern GDQ so far.
Great run and great commentary, I feel like I know more about Louisiana now.
The donation reader's voice is so nice and calming
Carcinogen’s attitude in the toughest of situations is unmatchable😂
This truly is the most legendary couch 🛋️😍
"Its a beehive on her crotch, what do you want from me?"
Best line of the entire run
still watching this bc this is where i get to know carcinogen and btw 26:49 is the start of the run
best couch and runner ever. i died at the jump scare lmao
56:28 "Spartan kick" this guy killed me! 🤣
Carcinogen: one of my favourites speedrunners :D
What a great job.
