I agree. It never really felt like there was anything to differentiate the agdq and sgdq events from their daily shows while everything was remote. It just never felt the same without everyone playing on the couch.
I liked the online events because it was easier for them to get runners from around the world to participate. Also, I think the rhythm game showcases would have never happened without the online-only GDQs.
Also any Doom game is always worth watching! Also Donkey Kong or Sonic games
And the awful games block is always hilarious, I think starting Wednesday night / Thursday morning with Beetlejuice, and running all the way to Skator Gator 3D, I know Virtual Hydlide is a funny one in there, and Skull Island: Rise of Kong is one of the newest games ever featured in an awful games block

And I plan on waking up early for tbcr’s Fort BOyard: The Challenge. Former coworker of mine and just enjoy his runs and the silliness it brings. Yourself?
It’s not super clear, but probably for ignoring directions from the organizers who tried to get him to stop impersonating Owen Wilson (for some reason) and stop telling people to tweet @AirCanada.
I think the ban has run out and he can submit runs again by now, but these are the kind of petty grudges I like to hold!
They’ve been pretty corporate since around 2016 but I feel like they stopped being so strict lately. The past few years have been fun, no major drama IIRC and they’ve gotten more chill in general.
TUNIC is up around the top of my list, but I’m also looking forward to the Mario showcases and the MegaMan 8 run. Fingers crossed for marathon luck during the pokemon crystal rando run, and for Shenanigans to pick another fight with chat.
Honestly I might check it out but they rarely seem to play games I’m interested in (first person shooters) and their management style gives me the ick. Very very puritanical over the most minor things.
That’s fair, I went and stacked the firewood I split during the monkeyball run cuz they’re not really my jam.
I’ll admit I’m unsure what you’re referring to with the management style but I’m sad they give you the ick, and I hope you don’t feel pressed to expand if you don’t feel like it
This is a good video on the topic While I personally can very much see why they’ve banned some runners, I just can’t see why for others. I don’t agree with everything the youtuber says but it’s very compelling.
In short, the organization just seems very quick to blow minor mishaps way out of the water. They seem to enjoy treating their customers and their fanbase as children, and instead of letting people work out their own differences as the adults they are, they like to step in and handle it themselves. Sometimes this goes well, but most of the time it doesn’t.
Basically, the way they run the event just tends to cause drama and it doesn’t look like they’ll be changing anytime soon. I enjoy the runners and the runs, but the event organizers clearly have a lot of issues going on. There’s a reason you just don’t see this kind of drama with ESA.
