OverBoost: Speedrunning, Silent Hill, And The Early Days Of Twitch

December 21, 2020 by Chris Johnston

We’re less than two weeks away from the Awesome Games Done Quick 2021 Online event. If the twice-yearly GDQ charity events have been your only exposure to the speedrun scene, you’re missing out on one of gaming’s most interesting (and booming) communities. In each episode of OverBoost, speedrunner and podcaster pmcTrilogy interviews other runners about their experiences and the games they play.

The episode embedded here is his interview with AnEternalEnigma—streamer, Silent Hill speedrunner, and announcer/donation reader for GDQ’s events. They cover AnEternalEnigma’s introduction to gaming, the Silent Hill series, how he found speedrunning, becoming a full-time streamer/Twitch partner, and more. Whether you’re a speedrunner, streamer, a fan, or just dipping your toes into the scene, the OverBoost series is a fascinating look into the community’s personalities and stories.

And it’s definitely worth mentioning—pmcTrilogy is also taking part in AGDQ 2021 playing Just Cause 3’s Sky Fortress DLC in the event’s third slot on January 3, 2021, so be sure to check that out too!
