The Astérix Gaming Guild: introduce_yourself

kabelkai

Hey I’m from holland and have always loved Asterix and Obelix, I actually have a pretty big collection of merchandise and stuff, and when I heard xxl 2 was getting a remaster, when it originally came out I was 4 years old, i thought about speed running it because I’ve always wanted to try to speed run something. So that’s why I’m here.

NoTeefy

Heya, I am a Swiss runner and pretty new on the Astérix & Obélix series. I played them casually in my childhood but I don't remember them that much. I really like the games though and I see a great potential for strats/glitches coming up in the future. I also like when old studios/producers decide to remaster one of their beloved games - that's what got me into the idea of running the AAO games. I am also working as a programmer in my daily life 🕶

Lusooo

Hi. I wanted to start speedrunning for a while now, but since everybody says "speedrun a game you enjoyed casually", I didn't get into it since I've only been playing online games since I was like 10 years old. However, I remembered playing this one "Asterix game"(which turned out to be Asterix & Obelix XXL) when I was 8 and really liking it, also getting a little bit frustrated at times(I hated the one section with the torch lol).I am also a fan of Asterix movies and comics. I'll try to study this game, get a bit of a grasp on the strats and speedrun it myself.

NostalgiAddict

Hey, Im from Czech Republic and i love Asterix & Obelix so much (its the big part of my childhood). I played XXL 1, XXL 2, XXL 2 Remaster and OG (100%) and i started recording and streaming some videos on YouTube. I wanted to try speedrunning on XXL 2 Remaster so i was looking on WRs and i found this groupchat, so i joined. (I dont wanna boast but im good at speedrunning and glitch-hunting.)

Hey i'm french and that's all

AndreofHazel

Hello there. I'm AndreofHazel, or Hazel for short, and I am from Athens, Greece. You may be familiar with the city from XXL although we don't have flowing rivers of lava beneath our feet xD I first played XXL when I was 6 or 7 years old and since then it's been one of my favourite childhood games, especially since it's a platformer, a genre of games that I love. I actually uploaded 20 videos of me playing the game from start to finish on Youtube back in 2015, but unfortunately all of them are in Greek. As of right now however, I'm streaming in English and I have some sort of fanbase who loves Asterix & Obelix XXL because of the videos I made back in the day. Starting this week, I'm planning on streaming the remastered version of XXL2 every Thursday since I've never played it before and maybe even upload it on Youtube as a new series.

Despite the fact that I've been in this server for a few months, I'll introduce myself. I'm *M3rtButur4K* but you can call me *Mert Buturak* if you want. I'm currently 17 years old, I'm Turkish but i live in Germany. I love the Asterix & Obelix movies and games but I never read any comic. My first Asterix & Obelix game was XXL 1 and my favorite game is XXL 2. I've been playing video games since about 2007 and I sometimes draw some art.

LouiGi

Hi I'm LouiGi, i'm French, and i'm initially a Jak And Daxter speedrunner but i was looking for a new speedgame, and as I grew up with the comic books (and Chabat's Asterix movie) and played the game as a child, i'm interested into running XXL. Onex and I agreed to get into the game and learn the speedrun at the same time so we could help each other, this is gonna be fun 😄

Stinkek

Well, I've been here for a while, so why not actually say something about myself... I'm Julia, 21 (at the time I wrote this), and I'm from Russia. ~~inb4 jokes about communism and vodka.~~ I'm not much of a gamer, but I played XXL1 with cheats as a kid a lot (I was a noob). This game is mostly easy for me now but it makes me nostalgic. I also like the comics (I haven't read them all though) and cartoons (saw all 10). I also make drawings sometimes. My OSs: ~~Windows 7 SP1 64-bit + Windows XP SP3~~ Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (since July 2020) I don't own any licensed copies of Asterix games
