nine-gear crow posted:MaNiAk and co. are in the midst of stumbling their way through Sven Co-op, the multiplayer mod for the original Half-Life. It's fun if you want to watch a bunch of guys break the game over their knee in funny ways, but honestly I'd more put this one in the "background noise for when you're working on other stuff" category. That's not a dig or a slight at MaNiAk, it's just a thing that tends to be inherent to these types of lengthy, group-based safari type exploration LPs is all. Cheers, this is exactly the kind of thing I am after. I know there are two horror mods, a Goldsource and a Source game both played by Mr. Sunabouzu - http://lparchive.org/Afraid-of-Monsters-Directors-Cut/ and http://lparchive.org/Cry-of-Fear/. I highly recommend both, Sunabouzu got blasted in the beginning of his AOM LP for some spergy reasons, but I think he does a good job of letting you get into the intended atmosphere of the games. He is a braver man than I. ivantod posted:Hi! That is great news, I will check your Youtube channel and if I see the videos I will have a watch, otherwise I'll await Baldurk. I do have access to the thread, it looks like all of your images are there too. Does Baldurk go through every SSLP thread he archives and point the image tags to his site? Must take forever! E: To be clear, I am talking about the images in the original threads. For content - The life of the informative LPer is usually quite a short one, I think I saw ResearchIndicates and Giragast mentioned here, they have to be some of my favorite LPers (Giragast really goes deep in Cold Fear, somehow viewing the game in a map editor or something to show off how the developers scripted events etc). I don't know that anyone has mentioned one of my other favorites, KingEffinFrost (http://lparchive.org/author/kingeffingfrost). In particular his Castlevania and Metroid LPs go into great detail on the mechanics of the games, if your sitting an exam on an ancient video game for some reason and want to pass - give frost a whirl.  Another fellow I wish would return to the industry of LP is Evil Tim (http://lparchive.org/author/evil%20tim), he has only completed two LPs but if you check his Youtube channel (http://www.youtube.com/user/CruelestChris) you can see he has a bunch of half finished LPs. A lot of Evil Tim Youtube LPs did have threads here and they are in the LP Master list. He always has something to say and is rather humorous, also does a good job of showing off the game while keeping it interesting. Snarky perhaps is the word I am looking for in my small repertoire of words. Dander My DOSDruid fucked around with this message at 22:16 on Mar 24, 2016 |

Oh yeah images are safe either way as they are hosted on LPix (also maintained by baldurk) and he anyway makes separate copy for archives. So those are not going away any time soon. I was uploading videos at Viddler because Youtube had a 10 (or 15) minute limit--once they lifted the limit I switched to youtube but that was only the last third of the Wing Commander LP. But anyway, I am finally re-uploading them all to youtube so it should all be back to normal shortly!

I had a search, but no luck thus far - does anyone know the name of the game that was LP'd in which you were the hero, and one sort-of love interest was the daughter of a lord and trying to influence you towards good, while the other was a demonic sort of thing (that maybe was inside your head for some of the game?). It was first person, and I remember that that the LP involved a lot of kicking and that it was often easier just to kick enemies than try to fight them. Also early on in one of the videos the LPer had to kill a troll that had just burst in through the castle gate by using a big mounted crossbow. Does any of this ring a bell with anyone? If this isn't the right thread for requests you can take this as a recommendation too, the video LP was hilarious.

Lord Malfegor posted:Any Half life mod threads around with working video links? There was a couple a long time ago that I know of, sadly they have been lost to time. This isn't on SA (but at least one of them is a goon), but these guys are playing through a Half-Life 2 mod that makes it co-op. It's pretty hilarious and great to be reminded of old-rear end physics engines. However, they don't really have an update schedule for it, amongst all their other stuff, so it's only 5 episodes long so far. Syngery: Half-Life 2 Co-Op.

Does anyone have any good Recommendations for XCOM 2? I did a thread search and found an answer. fibio posted:I could point you to half a dozen, but that's too much XCOM even for me. Of the youtubers I follow Christopher Odd's is pretty good, and the run is almost complete so there's plenty of content to dig into. Alternately Marborzir is probably a better player, but he has a strong acent that may make him hard to follow if you aren't a native English speaker. My bad

Was there some dark and horrible mystery that got the Ribbit King LP excised from the Internet? I can't seem to find it anywhere. I'm not even sure I want to re-watch it, I just need to know I can, if I ever have the pressing need for some more frolf in my life.

This is kinda specific but I'm trying to find a Bloodborne LP that's blind and in which the LPer tries to decipher the lore as they play. I'm open to youtube ones if they're not obnoxious. Basically like Kay's LPs if you've seen those.

Unlike Geop and Kay, Slowbeef is about as competent as a blind, quadriplegic, fingerless baboon, so there's a reason it's 100 videos long. Which, personally speakibg, is only balanced by the funny for so long.

His LP is finishing next episode clocking in at 81 videos. Geop's LP had around 112. You might want to rethink your hypothesis.

slowbeef isn't really bad at the game, just doesn't pay attention to his surroundings. Which is p. bad if you're looking for lore videos and whatnot, but hell, i still remember when he was playing Demon's Souls blind and rolled through the crossbow machine on his first try.

I actually did about as well as Kay in some parts of Demon's (see speedrun method in arrow trap) and managed a few of the really tough BB bosses on early tries. I also did the Chalice Dungeons before NG+ In fact, if you'd like, I'll do PvP and you can put your money where your mouth is. I make no secret that I'm "not good at video games" but I am probably better than you at Bloodborne. edit: But my videos are not at all good for learning lore.

Oh poo poo, video game callouts.  Look, subjectively, from a watching perspective I think your lack of awareness while playing is a bad thing for a From LP, regardless of how funny you are about it. I could have been less hyperbolic about it, for that I'm sorry. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Well I misspelled speaking originally. Look, I poo poo down your neck for facetious, 6AM at-best-demi-humor, and for that I am genuinely sorry. My opinion of your work aside there was no call for it. As for Bloodborrne PvP, I'd actually be fully willing to get murdered on camera in recompense, but my PS+ lapsed after I stopped caring about Destiny and had finished Bloodborne. I can look into reupping for a month, if you really care.

I know maybe I look defensive (to be fair, I am defending myself), but I'm seeing the convo as: "Hey does anyone have any recommendations for a lore-heavy blind Bloodborne experience?" "No, but while we're here, slowbeef is about as good at playing Bloodborne as one would be by mashing Helen Keller's dead face into a Dual Shock 4. You might as well have an epileptic walrus's brainwaves hooked up to a Geiger counter as input to the PS4 and see that defeat Cleric Beast; it'd be about the same! He is as good at Bloodborne as necrotizing fasciitis is bad for cake topping." "Okay, let's play PVP." "Whoa! Dude, can you calm down?" But, I'm being snarky here. No hard feelings, I just thought it was funny.
