I loved the story telling of the video. To tell the truth, the story telling was even better than most movies that I watch for entertainment.

- joshschreuder 5y agoHighly recommend going through Summoning Salt’s back catalogue as he is a great storyteller. He has a way of getting me interested even in games I’ve never played, like Ninja Gaiden [1]. I think the epitome of this for me was his vid on Mario Kart 64 and the A1A trying to stop a prolific speedrunner from claiming 32/32 simultaneous track records [2].

- permo-w 5y agoI enjoyed the video, but I have to disagree. For me, the storytelling was the worst part. I feel like they said “the problem seemed insurmountable, and the community needed a little help. [x months/weeks/years] later [clever person] decided to give it a go” about 4 times. I suppose, from a certain perspective, repetition can make good storytelling, and the actual real life events of course restrict the storyline to an extent, but they could have at least phrased it differently
