Speedrunners finish a 3 hour game in 15 minutes confusing developers

Speedrunners: completes a 3hr game in 15 mins
Developers:
Am I a joke to you?

This meme uses the popular 'Am I a joke to you' reaction image of a man with an exasperated, unimpressed expression to poke fun at the dynamic between video game speedrunners and game developers. The top text first states that speedrunners can complete a game intended to take 3 hours to finish in just 15 minutes by using skips, glitches, and optimized play routes. The reaction image is then framed as the response from the game developers, with the bottom caption reading 'Am I a joke to you?'. The joke highlights the humorous disconnect between the large amount of time developers spend creating game content, and the speedrunning community's ability to bypass most of that content to beat the game in a tiny fraction of the intended playtime.

This meme is sourced from the Reddit r/Meme subreddit, distributed via RSS feed. The original Reddit poster is u/sachdamasta, whose username appears as a watermark on the left side of the image. The base reaction image used is a widely circulated meme template originating from an old interview with former professional NFL player Terrell Owens, where he says the line 'Am I a joke to you?' with the exasperated expression seen here.
