Was nice to see which games garnered the most attention. Is there anything similar for this years SGDQ? http://sgdq.ma.pe/ is it this one? | ||

It's also so crazy how much that incentive makes at each 'GDQ. We need to get PETA to donate a ton of money to save the animals. | ||

The biggest difference is typically the amount of text to scroll through. So, to answer your question, yes. The inventors the Japanese character system did have speedrunning in mind. | ||

edit: Ah... right. Japanese uses lower number of characters for the same text, because they are syllables and even whole words. Didn't think of that at all, thanks! | ||
