OOT, I don't think simply saying "I don't like your run because I havent seen anything like it before" works. The correct approach I was talking about would be expanding upon topics such as WHY it is arbitrary and if I'm not mistaken, I think that is what gamebrain is asking for.
Gonna post my opinion here even though it doesn't really matter since I'm not a runner, even though I do watch runs. I actually watched gamebrain's run live and do think it was unique in a way but it's true that it did feel kind of unnecessary.
To gamebrain: if you don't really care why are you taking such an aggressive position?
To OOT: It's actually true that NG+ runs exist in hundreds of other games, but I feel like you aren't approaching why this is bad correctly (personally I don't think it is but I can see why you do)
Not that it matters what I think but in my opinion let the run be. More runs can only enlarge and help the community in my eyes.
