These marathons always make me appreciate the improvements to controls in the last 20 odd years. Some of these games were so fucking hard purely because the controls were so awkward.

I only ever got to play Spyro at my uncle's house because his wife had a PS1

I used to play it a lot since i used to own a ps1 when i was like 12 years old. But i gave up on Spyro at some point because of the controls (as you said) and because eventually i had no idea where i was and what i was supposed to do. No questlog in these old games haha. Lucky enough when those games gave you a map :p (that made me play Legend of Legaia and Wild Arms a lot on my ps1)

Honestly a lot of old games are just straight up harder even if the controls weren't shit.

Complete lack of context clues, better just explore every inch of every area I've been to and see what happens.

Also the Gerudo Valley theme fro OOT, one of my favorite songs from that game.

True. A lot of the difficulty came from lacking stuff such as questlog, map, even basic stats or instructions sometimes. Also there was no way for the developer to influence the game they made. They basically had to trust their balance to fit for most players because no way can you change that in a ps1 game from 1995 haha

I used to watch Raikaru stream on another channel a while ago. It's interesting to see him evolve from someone part of a larger group and branch off into a speedrunner at AGDQ.

Did they say why they are using the German version?

If I were to guess, probably some exploit only possible in that version.

Proved to be my second, unwritten hypothesis: It's just fun to listen to German.

For sure, I'm just still amazed at the quirks between language versions. Still strange to me.

Still is, a bit quirky and of its time. I think it would be an excellent candidate for a movie adaptation if they did a prequel with the film covering the fall of the underwater city.

His hand would be pretty cramped though.

In the stream they said its because german is the fastest language in this game. For version difference, ps2 version on ps3 (through ps store for example) is the fastest, because of glitches and loading times.

I've seen some Dishonored highlight reels so I'm kind of excited for a Dishonored run.

Maybe I'm a bit cynical but it could have been to sell more physical guides when those were actual things. Now everyone reads online walkthroughs and wikis so you don't sell more guides by making your game harder, you just drive more traffic to those websites.

You just like him because of his Murica shorts (but yea the runs were great).

Also Amnesia runs just aren't the same without AdamAK. This guys co-commentator sounds super nervous.
