Checked the master list and whatnot and didn't find it. So I'd like to put Rise of Nations . It's an old gem of a game recently released on steam. Probably best done in the form of a screenshot LP, as battles can either be quick 15-20 minute affairs or hour long grueling sieges. It shares many characteristics to empire earth and I think it manages to improve on the formula.

I'm kind of curious how you envision this LP. I'm guessing something like a conquer the world campaign with an invented narrative by the LPer, given that there is no story to the game itself? Or would you just want an informative LP?

There's a lot of different ways to approach it. There's several mini-campaigns that are more focused. An LP of a grand campaign could probably use some invented objectives/story.

My bad, it's just a joke that wasn't very funny. Most of the King's Fields games are super bad though and I've had some passing interest in them, but most people would rather I not LP anything ever. I'm sorry though that it came across as some attack against you, it really wasn't meant that way.

Yeah, like the framing for my King's Field idea would probably be to do a short look at the Japanese King's Field 1 because it's interesting from the fact it was a PS1 release title, but it's pretty archaic in it's presentation and how stats work (i.e. to get a point of strength requires connecting 100 solid hits and you have to do that for like 30 levels?). Then moving onto King's Field 2 as the first legit entry since it was more flushed out, had more varied environments but the problem becomes would people want to see a VLP or a hybrid? I mean screenshots would end up looking super repetitive, but straight video might be way, way too slow (up until the Shadow Tower games when it sped up a tad bit). I don't know, I have given it legit thought and did some initial planning, but I honestly don't know how well it'd turn out.

See, that's the confusing bit cause I'm not master of the Field of Kings and some of that poo poo is arcane witchcraft or flat out confusing. Like there are roving merchants, or what one item does in one game changes completely to the next. I do fully admit it's an interesting beast but it's a confounding one to present in a competent manner.

Let'en my post flyen true
So I have a modded 3DS that lets me record off it. I tried doing two LPs with it: Kid Icarus: Uprising (which went pretty well) and Paper Mario: Sticker Star (which did not). My 3DS is just sitting there being unused, and I haven't done an LP lately, so I figured, at the risk of this being some kind of interest check, what 3DS games might people be interested in? The list includes Bravely Default, but that game bores me to death, and I wasn't a huge fan of Mario And Luigi: Dream Team. Are there any other candidates for a decent game?

if you have friends willing to take part, especially 2 other pals with capture-modded 3DSes, Triforce Heroes would make for a good novelty.

It'd be a lot more doable with just one and two other people joining in, though. Capture modded 3DSes aren't exactly common at all. You might miss out on a few puzzle solutions but oh well. Doing it with running voice commentary could be neat.

If there's any 3DS game that deserves more attention in general, it's A Link Between Worlds. A lot of people probably don't realize just how good that game is and they deserve to know.

Crumpets. Glorious Crumpets.
I was thinking back to a lot of the old (non-Ultima) Origin Systems games that I used to play when I was younger. Autoduel, Moebius, Space Rogue, Omega... but the one I remember the least about (and in fact had to look up to make sure that it even existed, and wasn't some weird thing that my subconscious made up) is "Tangled Tales: The Misadventures of a Wizard's Apprentice".

I'd be curious to see someone who actually does remember it, and enjoyed it, take a stab at putting it on display.

Wrecking hell's shit since 1993


I've actually thought of doing Brutal Doom myself. The gameplay changes are significant enough that I wouldn't feel like I'm just redoing an LP that's already in the archives, and they might give me something interesting to talk about. My only hangups are that I'm not sure if it's good first LP material, and I actually need to make sure I can beat the drat game. There's a hallway in episode 3 somewhere, can't remember the mission, that brought me to a stop due to the reworked BFG.
