Rodyle posted:Wait what the gently caress is Odalius: The Dark Call It's a 2D action/adventure from the makers of Oniken - not quite a metroidvania, closer to something like Demon's Crest. They just announced a console port a day or so ago, or more specifically, they're in the process of porting the game to Unity so they can bring it to consoles.

I'm catching up on the Old Hunters playthrough now that I'm near done with my own, and I like how you can practically hear Woolie's erection getting bigger as the Penultimate Boss fight progresses.

TheRealestMatt posted:I forgotten I had predicted that. I agree with the others that said it was a really good direction to go in. Most people's "games of the year" lists are just that: Lists. Having a sort of roundtable discussion about the games helps better illustrate just why you guys picked the games you did, especially in cases where more than one of you played the game being discussed. EDIT: Also not that there would be anything wrong with doing top 10 lists either, but I agree the video podcast approach works better for the kind of format you guys have going.

TheRealestMatt posted:I forgotten I had predicted that. I feel like doing it podcast style was the better option. The solo lists last year were interesting conceptually because of the different approaches each of you made. However, I feel like something gets missed when you guys dont have the opportunity to discuss points of commonality as a group. Heck, that's why I'm a repeat customer. I also liked that while this years video was kinda similar in set up to the podcast, it had a very different tone. Also, now that you've got the dual camera set up and the new mics, When's Vodcast? E: The knowing looks from Woolz straight down the camera were awesome. DPM fucked around with this message at 09:06 on Jan 26, 2016 |

I don't know if you know this Matt, but the Volition psp game was shown because Chip Cheezum, the goon that does Metal Gear/Platinum LPs here, found it randomly at work and got permission to show it. (haven't listened to the podcast yet, egg on my face if it's mentioned)

Yardbomb posted:Shadowrun? It's good poo poo if so. Then Hong Kong manages to be even better! I finished Hong Kong yesterday, it's very fun. I thought it was better written than Dragonfall overall, although it peters out towards the end. Not that Dragonfall isn't good, but yeah, it's remarkable how they keep improving with every release. On Transistor: I'm ambivalent. I felt it dropped the ball on the storytelling/narrative front, going for a Dark Souls-style "connect the dots" thing that I don't feel quite worked, between the emptiness of the world and your chatterbox sword. Gameplay-wise, it's good. Not as good as Bastion, and the system is very easy to explore, but it's good. On the other hand I loved everything else, I think it has a better style, overarching plot and music than Bastion, and I loved Bastion. Paper Boats is so good, guys, it's so fuckin' good.

A bit late but on future top 10 videos I think just showing the title card while talking would be better then suddenly cutting to trailers- some which are really freakin' long. There's a number of times I had to check if the video stopped because there would be a sudden cut to black for it.

I get it upsets you (I guess I filter it out), but it's kinda how the "job" works. I don't mind notifications if they're not intrusive and if the streamer doesn't stop everything he's doing to acknowledge a $5 donation in a screamy tone - a rare thing, granted, but it can be done.

I remember Matt doing something like that for his first stream with Tomb Raider, it was pretty low key. Now Bro team? That poo poo was obnoxious.

The biggest thing is I hope that stream overlay/layout from the announcement video isn't final. Do we really need 10% of the screen to be social media and website stuff, 10% being the ticker, another 10% being Twitch chat, and another 10% being the crew? It all screams "We're new at this! We need everything on here! Max does all this and he's popular, right?" If you wanna keep the scarecam, it's hard to see any of you guys from behind all the equipment on top of being incredibly tiny. It's kinda worse than Max's streaming layout, and his is pretty unfocused from both him and the game he's playing. e: vvv I saw your Tomb Raider stream, and while it wasn't obnoxious, I think having that big empty area at the bottom was kinda useless for the most part, even if it was getting filled up by followers 50% of the time. pulp rag fucked around with this message at 17:41 on Jan 26, 2016 |

I watched part of Matt's Tenchu stream and he did pretty good job at calling out people only occasionally and the sounds were very discreet.

I'm sorry if I seem obstinate about it but my contact with that stuff makes it seem like roughly in the same realm as scarecams in youtube videos. I just don't think you guys NEED those kinds of gimmicks to cultivate viewers or whatever, you have a fanbase.

That's about it. I watched the Mandatory Dungeons stream and you might want to turn of the sounds related to the notifications, but otherwise the callouts were alright. It took me way too long to realize what the hell was making the weird sound. Maybe you already did this because I haven't seen your most recent stream.

That's about it. I was more of saying if Woolie kept it to the way you did it would be fine is what I meant. I watched most of your stream and it was fine. Bro team was stupid loud. Like if you somehow wanted to hear the game and them, you would have to deal with the LOUD blaring rear end sound they do every time someone donates.

Could always drop the chat in favor for a running total of Bison Dollars. Go all out with it because why the gently caress not. For Salty Bet, I mean.

Oxyclean posted:I watched the Mandatory Dungeons stream and you might want to turn of the sounds related to the notifications, but otherwise the callouts were alright. The problem is, is that the majority of polls and data we've culled, sounds are always preferred, people just want them subtle. I think mine are subtle. Maybe? I also have 5 variations for the sounds that play, so not the same one goes off every single time, so people don't get tired of it.
