This Resident Evil VII Speedrun Is Entertaining As Hell
Last night, during Awesome Game Done Quick's Horror Block, speedrunner Carcinogen showed off a Resident Evil 7 speedrun that was charming, entertaining, and even had its own jumpscares.
Carcinogen started the run by saying he'll donate ten dollars to the marathon charity, Prevent Cancer Foundation, for every time he's hit by an enemy and fails to guard. Resident Evil 7 allows you to mostly avoid damage if you guard at the right time, but that's pretty difficult when you're running from every enemy, which gave Carcinogen's bet some weight.
What followed was an informative and often hilarious run, which you can see below. Make sure to pay real close attention at around 1:26:55.
Take the time to watch the run, unless you don't want to be spoiled for Resident Evil VII. If not, go play that first, and then come back and watch the run. You can check out our review of Resident Evil VII here. You can also check out Carcinogen's Twitch channel here.
