Finishing last night the neutral ending is pretty cool too so don't be discouraged if you gently caress up in the beginning.

Yeah this was recommended to me too, I did that, decided not to follow up with a genocide route, and read about how in the genocide route the devs made it specifically grindy, soulless, boringly easy bullshit throughout the game until the final boss fight which is a thousand times harder than anything else as well as wastes your time for nearly five solid minutes, and every time you die to him you're forced to walk down a hallway and endure his slow monologue

I like these devs

I also think it's awesome when devs make parts of the game horribly unfun to play to make a thematic point. Really, what the genocide needed was a few tailing missions and sewer levels to really push it to 11/10.

Probably cause the game says something along those lines. Like, listing a ton of horrible poo poo followed by "But hey, you're still playing aren't you?" or something on a loading screen.
EDIT: No wait, it was "This isn't real, so why should you care?".

Well, in this case you are doing it to yourself. You don't NEED to do it, you just do it if you wanna complete everything and see what happens. and that is the entire point of that route

I mean, you can also play a Pokemon game using Nuzlocke rules to make it as boring as possible thanks to grinding but it's not like anybody is crazy enough to do that.

Some weps have helpful effects even if you never actually swing them

Ahh alright, I'll have to keep an eye out for that.

Another thing that doesn't really come across as well in the LP because the guys are usually talking over it, the music in this game is amazing. Toriel boss music is my favorite track so far.

Nuzlocke is one of those things you should do if you know your poo poo and want a challenge. If it can get boring if you're GOOD at the games, imagine if you had never played it. but it's not like anybody is crazy enough to do that.

Be cool to see Matt and Liam's reactions to some of it. There are large swaths of it that probably wouldn't be worth recording but the unique parts are really great.

The issue is you see the neutral ending anyway if you're doing Pacifist, so there's no major incentive beyond seeing the cool little variations that you can get depending on who you kill/spare. It's just more of a time saving thing to go Pacifist from the start, really.

Back when I went to fighting tournaments we just had key parties after. Now it's gone down to this?!?



Come to think of it those were probably just key parties I also played Garou at.

The Umbrella Chronicles games are great, and are considered the canon of all RE lore. Fact.

The UDG LP will be done relatively soon, and I don't think we'll ever need to talk about it again. I've got a lot of great ideas for stuff to look forward to in early and Mid December, and some other LPs we've been working on in the background. Pat and I have already done 3 sessions of another game, and that will be starting as soon as the Shitstorm ends.

Undertale continues to be amazing, I only wish I had caught wind of it far earlier, as I could have inserted it into our schedule far easier. That being said, new episode tomorrow afternoon.

So yeah! Thinking about future fun stuff fills you all with determination!

There's actually a demo of their Streets of Rage 4 project! It's from 2010 but it's available here: http://soronline.net/fangames_soriv.htm

e: Apparently development stopped on it because the lead programmer had a kid, but as of May 2015 they have a new game in the works.
