I do like how Id raised the possibility of fixing some of these issues, but seem to concede that “if we do, [speedrunners will] find something else - and it’ll be just as weird to watch.” They almost certainly would. And while the Idfolk don’t dismiss this sort of glitchy speedrunning, they do seem not-so-secretly pleased every time Xamide has to complete a fight before again launching himself into the sky. It’s a fun watch.

That world record is old hat, mind. Xamide has topped that 27:09 time twice since, with his latest video onhis YouTube channelcutting Doom Eternal down to 24:42. Observe:

If you’d like more broad explanation of it all, Xamide also ran Doom Eternal duringCorona Relief Done Quickover the weekend. You watch that archivedon Twitch.

OurDoom Eternal reviewdeclared Id’s latest “absolutely glorious.” Matt played it the long way, mind.
