I think it's the concept of "leveling" that killed it. (Destiny)

When we can level up so much that enemies aren't much of a threat any more then speedrunning is little more than 'who can sprint the most' or find the glitch.

Remember when I posted, after 6.5 straight hours of the Vault of Glass right when it dropped, that only an elite few would finish? That I might not finish?

That's because we were all doing it at level 26 with blue weapons. And it was really hard. 30 with maxed purple and yellow? Not so much.
