Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.

Get your thread hijack the gently caress out of here. Now.

You want the truth? You can't handle it. You're getting it anyway:

Your level is not getting LPed because it is a shitstorm. It uses Internet Speak and MSPaint. The level is pleasant enough until you decide to go for the secret area. The ghostly runaround is near impossible to find, trigger, and then complete. You need more save points. It's actually a decent challenge for the most part...

And then you threw in Laser Temple. To which all I can say is, gently caress you, die in a fire. There is nothing you can say or do that will ever excuse Laser Temple.

Would it be fun to see a Knytt Stories level creator play his own level? Perhaps. I honestly think they would be too good at it for it to matter. In your case the question is irrelevant, you are not a Knytt Stories level creator, you are a jackass with an editor and a fundamental lack of enjoyable gameplay design concepts.

I'm not going to comment on your LP of your levels. With a few rare exceptions, I don't criticize other people's LP styles; to each their own. But I do know that your LP of your own poo poo-tastic level needs to not be in this thread. It is not solicited, rather, I directly told you not to do this. I said user submitted videos were not okay. I told you and others, repeatedly, that your LPs of levels were not to be submitted. I directly spoke with ProtonJon and a few others about making videos for this, and if you aren't those people, you need to not link your videos here.

I am not letting you LP levels in this thread because the purpose of this thread isn't for you to showcase your shitstorm, or suck at doing it. I am not letting everyone LP levels all willy-nilly because there are just some levels that should not be played; yours is among them.

Remove the video links.

This Earthbound LP is in the archives. I thought it was pretty informative as far as what not to do in your thread, but it's not a meltdown as much as a downward spiral. Seems like they kept their youtube dump going, even though the videos are getting 13 views despite 3000 subscribers?

I may have asked this already, but any good Morrowind VLPs to recommend? Can be non-SA; if I recall correctly all Morrowind lps here are SS. I think I checked out... SorcererDave's? oevr at youtube at one point but ended up dropping it, so alternatives would be appreciated.

Whether it meets the definition of "LP" is up for debate, though. :v:

Are there any really good LPs with obviously scripted and rehearsed commentary, for the majority of the LP? I've only seen a couple like that but they tend to be interesting.

In return and very slightly on topic I'll give you one of my favorite 'guy talks while playing video game' videos, which happens be to Charlie Armitz giving very detailed and insightful post-commentary on his Pokemon Red speedrun. At the time nobody had ever heard of him and he just randomly showed up with a new world record for one of the most competitively ran speedgames ever, that was ran almost exclusively on emulators for convenience. Lots of people accused him of cheating in some subtle impossible to prove way, and the incident pretty much forced everyone to start playing on the console rather than emulators to avoid being assumed cheaters. He responded by breaking the record even more a couple months later on console, which he also did excellent post-commentary on.

First video that I hyped up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAXGQ8oywxM

Better run on console: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVti2xEqGw0

Hahaha, Seen that one. They cut the time almost by half since last time I checked it though (It was about 7:15 if I remember correctly). /edit: huh, no, it's been at that time since 2010, so I guess I'm misremembering. Oh well.

Thanks for the recommendation, but I'd prefer a more... LP-y LP to be honest. :v:

I really like stuff like C&I, retsupurae, and men drinking coffee, and someone recommended Vicas's Mario 64 lp and that was pretty good too. Any ideas? People keep posting about Saints Row 2 but that one doesn't really do it for me.

Already seen a few and didn't like them as much, think more witty commentary about the game and less players just yelling at each other.

Fair enough.

A little more low-key, you can try Jeff and David's stuff. You will not be unhinging your jaw all the time but they're consistently funny and their stuff is tightly edited. Start out with Darksiders or Syndicate.

I always thought Rchimp and his buddies did good group commentary LP's, though usually the games weren't bad (though Twin Snakes is up for debate). Maybe give this one a try: http://lparchive.org/Luigis-Mansion/

The Adventures of Business Viking and Biker Viking (aka Mercenaries 2) is my go-to suggestion in this situation. Granted the game isn't really bad, just kinda average and under-appreciated. But the guys playing it are funny and work great with one another, so give it a watch.

They're older, but anything by Evil Tim on the archive. Castlevania 64 and Nightshade both fit the bill.

If you like the Mario 64 LP, you might also like Dazzling Addar's Donkey Kong 64 LP since it's the same people.

There's also the Sonic 2006 LP by pokecapn and crew (assuming you haven't already seen the retsupurae version), and for not-so-bad games there's also Mario Party and LoZ: Four Swords Adventures.

I'm also a fan of Pork Lift and wateyad, though their games haven't been so bad. They've done The Last Story and Final Fantasy XIII.

A few years ago SuperGraffiti and MoominBiscuit did a great LP trying various budget PS2 titles. Most of the videos in the OP (requires Archives) are now dead, but backups exist on Youtube.

I vaguely remember something with regard to Best Friend Skull and his Risk of Rain series. It was going pretty well, he tried doing some co-op sessions that didn't go so well, made a lot of humblebrag comments about how he's just really good at the game and that's why the co-op wasn't going well (to which everyone on the planet went :rolleyes:) and then he sort of disappeared for a bit and then there was a huge explosion in the thread about something and then he ended up banned I think.

It was a pretty hilarious detonation, even if I saw like 5% of it.

The explosion came from the fact he admitted on twitter to being kind of a rapist.

Yeah, legally a prosecutor could have a fairly clearcut case with deliberately intoxicating someone to have sex with them.

So, long story short, no, I would not recommend his LPs.
