    It's crazy to see how the Tetris scene has changed so immensely since you started the documentaries. At that time, it was mainly older people who had played the game earlier on in their lives, and now the competing audience is so young. Also, it's very wholesome to see that the Tetris community is so accepting of newer and younger players, I hope it stays that way and we can reach greater heights together!

    • @zanierrules
      @zanierrules Год назад +1

      I don't think the community has much of a choice... the game is now largely dominated by teens and tweens. If anything, it'll be interesting to see if the kids today are still accepting of the older generation in years to come. Or if the trend even continues.

      No, CTWC has all 3 playstyles go head to head. There are some separate tournaments that have popped up outside of the CTWC exclusively for das players. Not sure about tap.

      From what I have heard about rolling so far, it sounded like it was a whole new level. Kinda like having a heavyweight against a featherweight in boxing. I remember in 2019 it was pretty balanced with DAS against hypertapping, even though Joseph was pretty far ahead against the competition in max scores.

    I can only endorse the use of password managers. Give it a shot, you won't regret it. You can also add family members or friends for a small additional fee, and have them be your backup if you would lose your master password or be hospitalized or something.
    Password managers really makes your online presence so much more comfortable and gives you a new level of peace of mind.

    As for the line cap debate, why not talk about gradually increasing the frame rate at the (no longer deadly) kill screen? Or is that option part of the debate?

    • @JonathanScarlet
      @JonathanScarlet Год назад +2

      Is that something they can do on console, though? I ask both out of genuine curiosity and because tournaments are held on console versions of the game so that would have to be considered, possibly.

    • @dennisamelunxen8283
      @dennisamelunxen8283 Год назад +1

      No, it's not doable on the original console. But holding on to that old hardware is eventually going to run into problems anyway. So if you realistically think about what this could look like in, say, 20 years, then it's gonna be emulators on some form. And accepting that opens the door for solving the problem of a nonlethal kill screen. To be clear, I'm talking about keeping EVERYTHING ELSE as is in the original game, and just add a "hypermode" that basically prohibits endless staying-alive playstyle. In my opinion that's so much better than adding a timer or a line cap.

      A 2011 documentary "Ecstasy of Order" about the quest to find the world's best NES Tetris player is what kick-started the scene. It was a success, and the NES Tetris world championships became an annual event so it was what all the tournaments in the classic scene became modeled off of.

    Hey, I found your videos a while ago when I got into Tetris effect and I’ve got to say, your videos are really entertaining and informational, but I just have one critique. Between of clips of Tetris and you voicing over the clips, there’s these transition clips where you are in front of the camera saying someone beat the record or something like that and it makes sense why you do it, it’s just how you do it worries me. You look into the camera, staring into our souls, your smile cheek to cheek and you look from side to side like your being held hostage and a gun to your head, after what you say what you need to say, the tone changes when your voicing the clips, more passive and chilled out than the transition clips. Now, it’s not bad, at all, it just kind of takes away from the value of the video,but I have to ask, are you okay? Its fine, I just want to know, because really, I’m scared for you. Anyways much love, rushing2game.

    New to watching tester is but I have a question about the first clip. Why was it more impressive that sharky maxed out 3 times in a row if he lost 0-3 doesn’t that mean Tristaps also got 3 max outs in a row? I don’t know what DAS is so I’m assuming it makes it more difficult to compete?

    • @aGameScout
      @aGameScout  Год назад +4

      DAS is using the built in piece movement of the game when you hold down the buttons to move the pieces to the side rather than tapping for each movement. Tristop was tapping and rolling in his games which means he had faster piece movement than Sharky. It’s much harder to get maxouts in competition with just DAS.
