Let's Play Sonic Adventure Episode 6 - Self Esteem

Well uh, we played six episodes worth of Substance, 100% completed Raiden and moved on to the next character... and Grace accidentally recorded the entire thing on the wrong microphone making his commentary completely unintelligible.

So uh, we'll be trying that again next week.

Heh... Spider-man... Web searches... That's funny. I should've trademarked that one. Could've made a mint.
Can't you replace Grace's dialogue with the Charlie Brown sound for when adults talk? That would be hilarious, but then we would only have 50% of what makes this LP so great.

I think there are a bunch of people who can create trailing images. I know some who could do this as if they were just going out for a stroll.
Sonic Adventure does that really weird thing where the same cutscenes are slightly different depending on which character's story you're playing. I have no idea if it's a clever commentary on unreliable narrators or just pure incompetence, but it's neat either way.

Let's Play Sonic Adventure Episode 7 - My Own Master

This is the last Sonic episode we have in the bank, we'll be recording Substance again on Tuesday with fewer tech issues hopefully.

I've seen a video where a guy did sequence break shortcuts to make the first tails level like, 12 seconds long, and revealed that Sonic rubber bands to obscene levels in that game, literally teleporting halfway across the stage to keep up.

Well I don't really want to turn this into a witch-hunt, but if you look for them, there's plenty of gay, bi, and/or trans LPers like me if you listen to them enough. I mean, "Half" is an exaggeration, but there's not a small amount I don't think.

If it counts, I'm bi and I help run the Dwarf Fortress Arena tournament/LP, and I know at least some others who were doing the Crawl LPs (that thread's played itself out for the moment) who are LGBT. I don't think there's a master list, but every so often it comes up and it turns out to be more common than chance would suggest.

For example, i's not quite LPs, but I recall one time where a bunch of people were spectating on a Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup game and it turned out that out of a dozen-plus only one person would cop to being both cis and straight.

Is drunk Dan not gay, or are bunny girls just universally loved? On another note Tales of Graces will be my first Tales game once I free up some space in the backlog. Sounds like I picked a winner?

Oh and I'm one of those odd people here for the games! Especially the ones/parts of them I've not seen or played before! MGS2 VR looks fun and I'm digging its music.

If Grace still wants in on Ghost Babel, why not stream its VR / Special Missions? :getin:

Oh Substance is much more than just more of the same as the first Virtual Missions game. We'll get there soon enough. Don't trust the percentage on the menus when he's selecting the modes, we're only at 33%...of regular ol Raiden. There are many other characters and modes in here, some far far different than what we've seen here.

One thing that always drove me crazy was I had "The Document of Metal Gear Solid 2" which was basically this disc of behind the scenes stuff that came out just before Substance. It had a viewer to look at the models for pretty much everything, as well as a ton of documentation, including Kojima's original script for the game (which is long and crazy. At the beginning he goes on for over a page about how we should know that Gurlukovich lands on the Tanker in a Hind based solely on the sounds the rotors make. Seriously. Anyways, it also had on it a preview of Substance, containing five random levels from the game. If you could beat them all and save your progress, then loaded Substance on the same PS2 memory card, you'd start out with 100% unlocked from the get-go. I could not beat the fifth mission no matter how hard I tried. It was an ultra hard sniper mission where Meryl is lying unconscious across a gap from you on a raised platform with a very complex landscape behind her. Suddenly a bunch of Genome soldiers start popping out from all over the map and rushing her, and you had to take all 30 or however many out before they got to her. There were just too many for me and I couldn't make it.


Also, I am glad to see that Dan's sneaking mission strategy of "screw the rules, :dunkedon:" is still working fine. The levels actually are designed to teach you how to be better at the game. Like the one level with all the lockers in it, which was around where Dan started just killing dudes instead is designed explicitly where you're going to have to start hiding guys if you don't want them waking up and alerting each other. Also, there are SO many times where he got lucky, as it's real easy to be like, 2 sprites over the wrong angle and totally alert a guard when you try to grab them, trust me I know.

Let's Play MGS2 Substance Episode 2 - Canadian Politics and Drag Queens: guest starring Pyroi

This episode feels like four times longer than it actually is somehow. We touch on a LOT of topics :v:

Regarding the burning of environmental data, Here's a good summary of what happened. The Harper government was... kind of a dark age. :(

Regarding Washington, I'm extremely dissapointed that he didn't hurtle in through a window and Bad Time everyone who immediately did everything he said to not do. I liked you, Washington, even if you were a traitorous rebel. :colbert:

I already use Voicemeeter, my card can only have one program use the capture at a time, so I have OBS record and stream at the same time so Grace can see it :v: the stream only has the game's audio since it's not like, a real stream.

Grace does a fine job of reacting the second he hears an alert sound anyway, so the video delay doesn't make a huge difference

Just getting caught up a bit, but the thing about Chinese is that it's a tonal language. So I'd imagine that in a music video the subtitles are there because a song could easily distort/lose the tonal differences between words. Then again, this is total conjecture on my part.
