When he heard the words "useless," Li Rushan's expression turned serious, and he struggled to keep his smile in check: "Okay, continue."
Is speedrunning useful? Strictly speaking, not really...
After all, there's a running joke in the speedrunning community: "What's the 'point' of playing like this?"
This joke mainly stems from the fact that many speedrunning streamers, during their attempts, often try a shortcut repeatedly for hours on end, and new viewers who don't understand speedrunning often raise such questions.
There's really no way to answer this question.
Yeah, what is the point? There isn't much of one, really. For those speedrunning experts, the experience of speedrunning is essentially like being in prison - they often need to play with high levels of concentration for an hour or two, and one major mistake can mean going back to square one, starting all over again.
