Sorry for the relatively long delay between the original upload of #2-5 and this one. No real excuses other than I got extremely lazy. I mean there were the computer issues but they got solved fairly quickly. Anyway, to apologize, here's the newest video!



As usual, with a new video comes :siren:A NEW VOTE!!:siren:

The woman that Felix, August, Vasquez, Finch, and Kroger are all afraid of has us in her sights. How do we get out of this sticky situation? Should we try to cut her out of the deal, or would you rather attempt to make her head spin?

Voting ends Wednesday at 6PM Eastern.

Down came the glitches and burned us in ditches and we slept after eating our dead.
Holy poo poo, we lost Fiona's hat, Vaughn, and the new team member we were gonna pick up all in one episode.

Losing an actual team member before we even met them is not one of the possible consequences I expected, I thought we'd just get them another way, but nope! DEAD!

I told you guys trusting Fiona was the wrong choice! Little did I know how right I would be. :cry:

RIP little buddy.

To those wondering what this is about, had we sided with Jack, we would have gotten the little drone that paralyzed Vaughn as a buddy instead.

his name is Dumpy :(

Wow. Jack's plan goes way better (and much funnier) than that. That was just awful. Look at this horrible mistake you monsters have made. We lost Fiona's hat, we lost out on Dumpy, and our best bro Vaughn is paralyzed. I hope you're all happy with yourselves. :colbert:

Trust Fiona because I love how this playthrough so far has been Team Reasonable Partnership. I want them to all continue to be amicable acquaintances forever and she's a lot more trustworthy than Jack is. Plus, her headgear is nice and Jack has no hat.

Look at this hat hating world you've helped create by trusting Fiona.

Oh, and we need to make Vallory's head spin.

You're right, Jack doesn't have a minion that can shoot paralytic darts at anyone he wants.

Edit: We just saw first-hand what happens when you try to cut her out of the deal. Let's make her head spin instead.

So I'm not going to spoil everything that happens in the Trust Jack version because you guys should really play it for yourselves but to be clear, this is a huge turning point in the game. Episode 3 plays out VERY differently depending on who you chose to trust. Dumpy? Jack thinks the runty droid is cute and harmless so he hands control of it over to Rhys where it becomes a very useful part of his inventory. Vaughn's paralysis? Doesn't happen at all if you trust Jack. It's effectively two extra characters that Jack's version has over Fiona's. And Fiona doesn't lose her hat.

It also has one more interesting effect that we aren't going to see for awhile.

:colbert: Y'all better find some way to replace Fiona's hat.

Also, since it wasn't chosen/flashed by very quickly, there's an 'enhance!' option during the 'Loader bot, pull up!' scene, giving you the option to continue that running joke should you wish.

Pandoran gun nuts, can any of you identify that huge shotgun that Vallory executes Vasquez with?

A thing I really liked is that the tense music from the end of last episode is still going for a bit when you get back to the past part of the story. Also, I bought the whole thing after the LP went through all of Episode 1, I just never got around to posting about it. So, thanks for showing off how cool this thing was, bro! And I know you've told someone else that those of us who have seen the whole game can still vote freely, but I'm still going to restrict my votes to very specific times.

The shotgun is the same one Vasquez pulled on Rhys and Vaughn in the desert. I think they called it the Conference Call?

It's kind of scarily impressive that Vallory just takes away the shotgun, kills Vasquez with it, and tosses it aside. She doesn't even try threatening Fiona and the others with it. She doesn't need to.

No, I'm pretty sure Conference Call is the Stranger's gun. I'm not a gun nut though, so I can't say what Vasquez's gun actually is.

IIRC The Conference Call is the red Hyperion shotgun that the Stranger is using. The Penetrating Overcompensator is the energy rifle with six barrels, this shotgun is a different weapon.
