This is an outside SA thing and can only be tangentially called a Let's Play, but I don't give a poo poo because it's amazing on every level: Breaking Madden, by Jon Bois has started up again. So if you want to see a guy absolutely destroy Madden NFL 16 and make a mockery of the National Football League in the process to the tune of some really great music cuts, then Breaking Madden is for Edit: Here's the SB Nation Breaking Madden site itself where Bois also writes analysis of each BM episode. It's also incredibly hilarious. nine-gear crow fucked around with this message at 00:53 on Oct 5, 2015 |

Aw yiss, this is exactly what I needed right now (Chiefs fan). I thought that after nothing happened the first two weeks, it just wasn't coming back. EDIT: Also, even more unrelated to video games, don't forget to check out the Roster Cuts on the SBNation page. Every week, there's the greatest stories ever being told. Like how one guy puked into a sink and ended up flooding a house. TheMcD fucked around with this message at 00:59 on Oct 5, 2015 |

The best one is the roster post for the Super Bowl XLVIII episode. Some guy yelled at a woman for going in an out door only to be mortified when she turned around and it was Maya Angelou

anilEhilated posted:Certain amount of loving the sound of your own voice is necessary to do video LPs and youtubers usually don't get called out on it. Pretty much this. I'm doing a VLP right now and I'm not a fan of my voice so holy poo poo it took a lot of practice to sound even close to natural. Also when you're recording silence is deafening which makes ingame text the proverbial low-hanging fruit.

Or, say, if you want to watch and be able to mostly just listen while you do something else. I really appreciate when people summarise written stuff, because I don't want to read all that garbage, but reading it all is going too far. If I want to know exactly what it says, I'll make the effort to read it myself.

Assume this is the right thread to ask, but does anyone know where on the whole wide internet I can find a screenshot LP of Vagrant Story? (I lack both archives access and the ability to convince The White Dragon to preserve his LP of it for future generations.  )

So I've watched all of JordanKai's stuff, all of SlowBeefs Stuff, All of Chip and Ironicus' stuff. I'm now out of stuff. Any other groups that are good, with the same energy? (Seen PokeCapn stuff as well.)

Any other groups that are good, with the same energy? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=user?MenDrinkinCoffee?playlists Advergames is usually cited as their claim to fame, but if you ask me, all of their stuff is good! Even MMZ1 and 2. But if nothing else, Advergames is good because there's a lot of variety in the games which gives them more content with which to work.

You might try the KalonZombie and ThornBrain stuff. Those are the first two that come to mind. The Men Drinkin' Coffee stuff is often fun, as is the TheJeffAndDavidShow stuff. There hasn't been an Ambisagrus/WoodenPalisade or a HelloItsDan/LithuanianDad series for a good long while, but those are also fun if you dig around in the archives. You might also like the SkippyGranola stuff, BobbinThreadbare stuff, Nidoking stuff and Geop (particularly when Kuvo is also involved and secretly trying to kill him in entertaining ways), though they tend to be a little lower key and benefit from being the focus of your attention rather than being watched in the background.

TheJeffAndDavidShow are really good. Ummm Tipping 40s stuff is always good. BroOPgamers is pretty good but they mostly just stream. DOOplay when they post on the forms. Actually not many group LPers that I know of.

Anything with Vicas is good. Geop's Dark Souls LP is really, really good. Go watch that if you haven't. Also, the Donkey Kong 64 LP and Mario 64-but-feet.

Phenwah's stuff is always my go-to for great group commentary. I'm awfully fond of everything here (except the first Red Steel LP, which is from '08 and has poor audio and video quality even for then), and they recently did an off-SA LP of H.A.W.X. 2 that was really funny despite the burden of forced landing sequences worse than the ones from the NES Top Gun game.

One of my favorite Let's Plays by the Two Best Friend's Team. Silent Hill 2 LP Pat is very informed on the backstory and development of the game and Matt goes into it more or less blind. I like to have it on just in the background because the commentary is enjoyable.

Zain posted:BroOPgamers is pretty good but they mostly just stream. Aww, our first recommendation. v  We do upload most of our streams for anyone who missed 'em, but if you want "energy" you definitely want the videos Ben and I are both in (which to date is just the RE4 playlist, although we have Evil Within and Dark Souls 2 ongoing I haven't started uploading yet). I've been told to put it nicely my solo stuff is somewhere between chill and somnolent.  I don't watch a ton of LPs in that style (high-octane groups), but Spoiler Warning is OK if you can get past Josh's (the guy who actually plays) antics. Other than that.... EricFate posted:or a HelloItsDan/LithuanianDad series Yeah, I don't know what happened to the Dan & Dad team, but Mercenaries 2 was an amazing LP. If you haven't seen it yet, Turtle, you definitely should. v Aww, gotcha, thanks for the heads-up. Sucks to hear that of course.

Dan always seemed to hate everything he ever recorded, and Dad fell into the camp who decided that people were taking LP too seriously, and decided to see how many times he could get banned for trolling. I still hear him turn up in other videos from time to time. That reminded me of another one. The early Faceguy/Wogturt stuff was great. Pretty much everything right up until the later Paper Mario stuff where they began to have audio issues. After that point, you could tell that a lot of the sessions had gone into re-recording session 3 or 4, and they were absolutely sick of the material they were presenting. Prior to that point, the videos were golden. EricFate fucked around with this message at 01:45 on Oct 7, 2015 |

TheLastRoboKy and CoolGuye are a really good duo, if you like Chip and Ironicus their dynamic reminds me a lot of them. I highly recommend their Dawn of War II co-op playthrough, and Dark Messiah of Might and Magic.

I dunno, Josh's antics are kind of amazing in that he is the bug whisperer. He plays the games in such an insane way that he always manages to find something utterly ridiculous.

I don't know if there's a retsuprae thread I never see, but I like that and only discovered by accident that it's also Slowbeef and Diabetus commenting on games. Specifically it's them commenting on terrible games usually played by other people, though SlowBeef did just finish a playthrough himself of Sonic 06 that by the end of it they both seemed completely drained of hope or mirth. I wouldn't be surprised if that's why he stopped being the mod for this sub forum. While I'm here, is there a decent VLP of the Quest for Glory series? I'm reading a screen shot one that's decent, but those old Sierra games really need the animations with someone explaining why they are doing the poo poo they are doing. All thepuzzles have a logic to them, even if that logic is from someone taking a lot of drugs.

He VA'd the lines of the games that didn't have any voices and that was either take it or leave it stuff. He was doing QFGIV. Not sure what happen to that one but it was looking good.

If anyone's still looking for group LPs, you have to get on the Skate 3 thread that is very slowly creeping towards completion. The commentators are husband and wife, so obviously great chemistry there, and they're both very funny, which goes well with the theme of showing off how Sonic '06 broken the game is. Their YouTube channel also has a few LPs of indie horror games that are similarly charming, if very different in tone.
