I'd be happy to see more videos from you. Preferably from classes that aren't easy, because then we'd have some variety.
As for the jabs at cheesing RNG for fast runs... Who did that? When?
Every speedrun ever, really not about you. You need good RNG for speedruns. For example, Dark Souls 2 requires one of the starting strategies requires the first mini-boss drop a specific weapon, but it is a RNG based drop, so it is not guaranteed (halbred). Players doing that speedrun with that strat will just restart until they get that RNG drop. If they're practicing / demonstrating for streams/donations, they'll load a save with the drop already occurred.
Borderlands 2 does the same thing for specific weapon drops. They farm weapons until specific things drop.
Over the course of a speedrun, you still require skill to pull stuff off, but you can't guarantee the RNG. What makes it interesting is how the player deals with both boons and challenges over the course of RNG. You can still waste good RNG with bad gameplay and vice versa, but ultimately the best results come from good RNG AND gameplay.
As for flames (and non-believers), let me quote what happened from some of the previous threads
Templar Solo:
no, just no.
Stevie wonder could have solo'd perilous with that gear and promotions.
I love your builds and posts but lets get real here=P
Avvar Demonstration:
"Inb4, with your stats... meh, it doesn't really require skill.
You could aswell just spam random things all the time."
"Post a screenshot of your stats please when posting demonstrations as this is not an accurate representation of 99% of players stat level."
Katari Perilous Demonstration (this was before Katari was buffed, or Dragon items, etc -- everyone thought Katari sucked except me and key other early adopters)
"You got pocket barrier/HoK ring(s?)/Best weapon in game/ lots of team cc / 2 of your 4 skills slots using PURE defensive moves. Spending at least 1/2 your time circling around enemy or hiding LOS.
And you still managed to die. (I stopped watching halfway)"
"
I also suspect you wouldn't be "roflstomp"ing as much without your hard earned gear and promotions. All else being equal, do you honestly think Katari (and to a lesser extent, Reaver now) is on par with the other classes?":
expecting beginner/intermediate players to achieve similar levels of "roflstomp" and "mythical fun" as someone with your stats and loadout by following your methodology would be unreasonable, especially since most people's sense of "fun" is in some way tied to how successful they are.
"In other words: The average player would have been left clueless why your tips don't work out if you hadn't mentioned this negligible extra bit."
"Nice, but show me a game with you not using the sulevin blade and with an assassin, an alchemist and an AW or one of the archers."
Rofl at all these noob comments now, right?
There's always people that say, 'oh but you suck' because we can't do it / we're noobs and think our old stubborn ways are better (but really they suck). I'm fairly certain BW made some balance changes with some of the more popular threads in mind though.

We have faith in you!
