Wow the Swery thing is even sadder from first person, knowing how much the dude loves what he does:

quote:

"But I got some feedback from the company saying we had to put some things in this game that would become internet memes, like with DP," he said. "What would you do in that situation?"

D4 was released last September exclusively for Xbox One and published by Microsoft Studios. Not particularly happy about the notes he was being given, Swery took to writing and drinking.

"Development-wise, I overcame it by rewriting the script seven times," he said. "To overcome it personally, I just kept drinking tequila and believed that what I was doing was right."

If Microsoft told Kamiya to put memes in his games Osaka would burn to the ground the next day.

Saturday Morning Scrublords HAD to be a thing to justify Matt's billion dollar expenditure when he bought Final Fight Revenge. This video has to go viral to pull em' back into the black. That's the new lore.

EDIT: gently caress, I start the video and they make the same joke in the first minute. WELP.

I said it in here a few months ago but one thing I hope in the SMRPG playthrough (I haven't watched the first vid yet) that doesn't continue from the Barkley Gaiden run was pat just flying- flying through the text on screen. Not that I expect him to stop and read out loud everything but it kind of proxy stressed me out like Pat flew threw everything thinking he had this urgent warning to keep it moving or something especially since Pat had never seen the game before and I felt he probably missed out on a bunch of the charm of the writing.

I can't watch the vid yet so I'm sure it's answered in the vid but have either Pat & Liam not played SMRPG before? I prob would mind less if they rushed through it if they were both super familiar with it going in.

I've always assumed he reads really fast and doesn't understand how slow us normal people read.

Yeah, the LP was invented because they're both blind to it because Liam was a babby and Pat didn't have a childhood due to his Genesis ownership.

Haven't been able to listen to the SBFC for a couple weeks but I've been catching up at work and just got to the "if you could have a full soundtrack played by a real orchestra/with whatever instruments you want" email, I was hoping someone'd mention either Lufia or Lufia 2 on that list. Because holy poo poo Lufia's music is godlike.

It did a lot with the SNES soundchip. The remixed versions for the DS remake were great but I'd love to hear a live orchestra, possibly with some electric guitar mixed in, do the soundtrack justice.

Hopeful for this new video series, though!

This is the most excited I've been for a new playthrough on the channel. Been dreaming since the beginning they could do Super Mario RPG, but I always figured it wouldn't fit the format. Haven't watched the first video yet, but still high hopes for this one!

Definitely. Watching this LP would make me want to play through it again. Absolutely a classic.

Oh man. I remember getting stuck in that sunken ship part and had everyone in my family trying to figure out the password to advance past there. And the part where you had to make music with that composer guy. And the puzzles near the end of the game in the castle. And Geno was probably my favorite character.

It's all flooding back. What an awesome game.

Super Mario RPG is a very short RPG by RPG standards. It'll definitely have fewer updates than The Evil Within as long as they don't get too lost.

edit: FWIW AGDQ had a Mario RPG run the other night and it was under 3 hours, and that's just from really optimized routing and mastery of items/combat, not particularly any gigantic content skips.

I'll say I never had a problem with Pat's speed, so I think he just reads faster than most. Might come from just playing a lot of SNES-era RPGs, I dunno.
