Awesome Games Done Quick 2020 will include a Destiny 2 raid, Bloodlines, and Sekiro
Good luck with that.
A list of the games being tackled by speedrunners at Awesome Games Done Quick in January of next year has been released, and it includes a bunch of highlight PC games. A team will be taking on Destiny 2's Last Wish raid with all encounters, which should be an interesting one. Speedrunning a live-service game presents an interesting challenge—here's hoping Destiny 2 doesn't get patched between now and January in a way that completely invalidates their plan.
There's also a 45-minute Nosferatu speedrun of Vampire: The Masquerade—Bloodlines, which will presumably involve memorizing all the sewers, as the Nosferatu vampires are so deformed they can't even be seen in the street without a hunt beginning. A speedrun of the mainline Fallout games (including New Vegas) will be wrapping up the post-nuclear RPGs in 2.05, and an All Beads/Memories Race of Sekiro in 1.40.
Check out the full list of games here, and here's the AGDQ2020 attendance guide.

Jody's first computer was a Commodore 64, so he remembers having to use a code wheel to play Pool of Radiance. A former music journalist who interviewed everyone from Giorgio Moroder to Trent Reznor, Jody also co-hosted Australia's first radio show about videogames, Zed Games. He's written for Rock Paper Shotgun, The Big Issue, GamesRadar, Zam, Glixel, Five Out of Ten Magazine, and Playboy.com, whose cheques with the bunny logo made for fun conversations at the bank. Jody's first article for PC Gamer was about the audio of Alien Isolation, published in 2015, and since then he's written about why Silent Hill belongs on PC, why Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale is the best fantasy shopkeeper tycoon game, and how weird Lost Ark can get. Jody edited PC Gamer Indie from 2017 to 2018, and he eventually lived up to his promise to play every Warhammer videogame.
