Yeah, forgot to mention that there are a couple of interesting Demon's Souls LP's going on right now, like Dooky Dingo's LP of it and I think Angrymog's beginner's guide to the game (though I'm at a loss to find the threads).

Possibly because you're searching for Demon's Souls and those two threads are running Dark Souls.

I only just today discovered it, but Faerie Fortune is doing a blind VLP of Ocarina of Time with ChaosArgate as her copilot. Imagine Geop's Dark Souls LP, but more British, and while I don't want to reduce Faerie Fortune to a series of labels, well, she IS one o' them girl-type female goons, so if you've been wanting an LP narrated by a female goon, that bears mentioning!

But yeah, it's extremely good.

Just the idea of someone doing a blind run of a game I've committed the majority of to memory has me very intrigued to see how they handle it. Gonna be following this for sure.

Adding to this, BottledBodhisvata's ongoing LP of Demon's Souls has a bit of a twist; Not only is he going into detail about the history of weapon and armour types (Much akin to Geop's Let's History in the Assassin Creed games, or KalonZombie's greek history and mythology in the ongoing God of War LP), but he's taking thread votes for what weapon he uses, and where to explore next.

A long time ago in 2007, hentai LPs were somehow allowed. One of the few screenshot hentai LPs that was ever posted was a game called Crescendo. It was pretty cool for the sheer :gonk:-factor. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your how you see it), most of the screenshots themselves are gone, but the reactions from the posters definitely made it worth to read.

Fae knows almost nothing about the game past what she's played and part of this is to keep it a blind run, so it's a complete no-black bar zone there so don't go in and post about how you can't wait for a certain dungeon and please don't PM her about things that will eventually pop up.

I feel like the thread for Neighborhood Necromancer (part of the Choice Of CYOA lineup) is criminally quiet, so I wanted to inform you all that the protagonist is currently dressed as a giant duck and chasing after her skeletons who have gone rogue on Dia de los Muertos.

The skeletons are all wearing sombreros and playing trumpets despite the setting being a small town in England.

No one's quite sure how the skeletons can play the trumpet.

I just want to bring this one back up, because the first run through the game is done now, and a second one is just beginning. The story the first time was wonderfully pacifist/quirky, and the second one is shaping up to be about murdering as many people as possible.

Chrono Trigger by Caront (YouTube)

An excellent ongoing YouTube LP of Chrono Trigger. It's surprisingly very good! Caront makes some excellent commentary, teaching people about the game and giving his commentary in a fluid and calm manner. He has played through the game many times before and has watched other playthroughs as well, so he knows a lot about the game.

The LP has currently 31 parts as of this post.

I recommend checking out the first video of the playlist so you can see his enthusiasm for the game. Seriously, it's pretty good. It deserves more views.


I liked the intro at the beginning, but then he started reading all the dialogue out loud and explaining how to move Crono around.

Definitely a mixed bag for a horror game, and a lot bleaker than you would imagine.

I miss SA's scathing reviews of terrible shovelware-level hentai games. The games were awful but some of those reviews were gold. Those two threads you link require the archives upgrade though—even with broken links, are they mirrored elsewhere?

I think it was SA that got me hooked on Etrian Odyssey with a high recommendation too.

I'm about halfway through the Let's Play 20 years of Sonic by Run Button and it's been really good quality so far. I also wanted to recommend the 2007 Let's Play Legends of Grimrock by IronChitlin. It's (mostly) complete except for the last 2 levels but it's really entertaining. It's a video humorous group Let's Play and it has accordion music bits too!

I wanted to echo this recommendation. I finally decided to watch it after going through the thread, and it's simply delightful. For convenience, it's located here. Though as a warning, definitely don't watch if you were hoping for something close to skilled. Half the humour comes from Chitlin's inability to manage basic tasks sometimes.

Are there any good LPs for Banished that anybody can recommend? I get so far in the game before I start loving up and I would love to watch somebody who knows what they're doing playing for a while. I've watched a few that I've found on YouTube but every single one is just as big a gently caress up as I am, and whilst it is good fun watching somebody freak out as their villages suddenly start starving to death it doesn't help me a great deal.

There's a Games thread for Banished, you are probably better asking for help there. Watching Banished is one of the best cures for insomnia I've found in years, so an LP that is interesting and informative is going to take more thought than you're going to find on Youtube, and nobody has done one here.
