What makes it so easy to rampage in this mission is the over abundance of food everywhere. Even if you get shot in the face, you can just chug some punch and cakes and be right as rain again.

Aren't some of the larger food cans just full of whale fat anyway? It can't be tasty to chug a gallon of it.

Don't worry, we got all our commentary done and recorded. It's just going to be a matter of Coolguye finding the time to glue it all together, and my next video is ready to go for our next recording session so there won't be too much of a wait turnover there.

Also XCOM2 is really really good.

Yeah, I apologize for all of the recent delays, but please be assured that everything is fine and we are not giving up the LP. The delays are mostly Coolguy-related, as we've generally come to expect, honestly. I'm taking steps to address this - last week I started working with a gentleman to help with sound editing my episodes, which has traditionally been one of the big hold-ups in publishing new content. I loathe sound editing and it takes a lot of my time, so presuming this new guy works out things should be a lot more regular going forward.

He's left me with the impression that he will be done with the low chaos run of Lady Boyle's in the next day or so, but since the thread is asking (as is their right!) I will check in with him tomorrow to see if he has a more specific ETA. :)

I love you all.

Coolguye's given the thread the skinny on the subject so I'm just going to say that you can ask about me being buried head-first in a turn-based tactical RPG when the english-language release of Super Robot Wars Original Generations: Moon Dwellers is out later in the year. At least in its case I'll know that the translation will be garbage cause it's for South East Asian markets, unlike Fates which is garbage because they apparently hired a bunch of circus clowns.

Rest assured if this hold-up continues on account of Coolguye's audio editing pipeline difficulties or Orv continually dying and having to be resuscitated with black magic on the days we usually record I'm going to just start a goddamn Transformers: Devastation LP because I'm getting LP withdrawals.

The D&D movie is a perfect adaptation of the RPG and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. :allears:

It really does need a set of captions that are nothing but die roll results, though.

Exactly! Think about it, it isn't meant to capture the essence of Dungeons and Dragons, it's a send up to every bad PnP group ever. It's got;

  • The sterotypical, Scottish, racist dwarf.
  • The stoic, know-it-all elf
  • The uptight, snooty mage
  • The two rogues who just came to drink all the Mountain Dew and crack jokes
  • The big bad's name is Prophyion, which will surely just get him called by some character trait he has because who the gently caress is going to remember that
  • The big bad's big hench is DAMODAR, who even whispers when he's doing something bad
  • The heroes get dragged into the plot by something entirely unrelated, and then railroaded as hard as possible into being the saviours of some bullshit they don't give two cents about
  • One of the players goes up against the big hench when the plot doesn't call for it and gets murdered to death for his trouble
  • The macguffin is ultimately pointless except to allow a thing for the heroes to gently caress up
  • Elves are magic!

I will be in the next day or two. The thing with the new sound editor was a disaster, so I just wanted more content out there. Huge thanks to Lunethex for stepping up and shredding out the sound at least twice as fast as I would've been able to.

I frequently don't know what to say on interludes, so I sometimes have to watch them about 3 or 4 times to get something that sounds half decent. :shobon:

I genuinely don't remember the guards eagerly offing each other in this level, and I definitely didn't know about shooting the balloons. I do know that you can platform your way up to the top of the balloons, and I'm genuinely curious what happened when you brought a friend.

When I was doing the party, I stashed every upstairs guard in Esma's bathtub. It wasn't on the patrol route of any guard, so none of them would decide to cover a missing person's patrol and discover my handiwork. Plus, while you can only fit five in (under normal circumstances, without ini tweaking) before they start disappearing, those five make for an amusing tableau.

Also, I learned the guard objected to you eating his apple on my first playthrough, but the video that taught me those balloons were explosive was this one.

When I tried to jump on top of the balloon, it immediately exploded and dumped me unceremoniously earthward. Me and my sleepy buddy ended up plummeting to earth.

If you drop her too close to the swarm of rats in the basement it doesn't count against clean hands. But maybe killing the target never does.

By the way, can you carry her outside and dump her in Granny Rags old place, or feed the hagfish?

No, you definitely need to handle the targets in non-lethal ways to get Clean Hands. The ways around it mentioned here seem more like bugs.
