If it's in the game it doesn't matter if they thought about putting it there or not.

If I get more thought out of a game than the creators put in, I win.

The secret to an A rank is clearly getting both the monster and Salsa's hat in the same picture.

It amuses me to no end that a C rank photo can get so harsh a response at a merchant and still net more gold than you could get in more than hours of the regular game.

I've been told that photography prices were one of the things that were heavily rebalanced in the PS3 version. I guess they realized it was a bit silly how it worked in the 360 original.

Thanks to everyone who tuned in! Later this week I'll clean up the audio so you can actually hear what Hbomb is saying in the middle of the louder fights, and that will be this weeks update.

If it helps with your movie opinions hBomb, I prefer watching Cinderella 3 to Cinderella 1 (disney) because I find Anastasia's arc to be very satisfying as she begins to have misgivings about her mothers methods and yet is stuck going along with them because she has no way out. She is as much of a victim of Lady Tremaine as Cinderella was, she just didn't get enough focus until Cindy was out of the picture. It also implies interesting things about Tremaine as she doesn't stop being a bully after the woman that ostensibly threatened her escapes, she just switches targets to the second weakest member of the family - she wasn't bullying Cinderella just to put her below her daughters - it may have been the case that she is broken enough that she absolutely needs a victim, no matter who it is.

I was under impression that you already had entire game recorded, so how does this livestream fit in? Or am I misremembering, and it's a direct continuation of previous update?

We missed an optional boss fight in the lava caves so I played through the entire game again to get back to there and then we streamed it live. This will not be the last time this happens.

I'm waiting for Hbomb to get the next session's commentary audio to me so I can put the next update up from the pre-recorded stuff.

They played through the whole game last year but missed an optional boss in the lava cave, so that's what this is.

It was worth it for the echo chamber at the end and Grat's reaction to 'Banjo' :allears:

We're at the end of chapter four now, but we're well past the halfway point. There's only one full day of recordings left - day 5 is, uhm.... "special", and though there is a lot of recorded video from that day, it will be severely edited.

"So Alegretto, what have you been up to for this completely unclear amount of time that we've been separated?"

"Oh, we helped some kid grow a plant and explored a spooky graveyard. You?"

"Defeated a pirate queen and her entire crew, stole her hat, totally watched Freddie play some great piano (you really should have seen it!), held high level meetings with the monarch of another nation, almost became his hired assassins, were tasked to deliver a secret message in his stead, then maybe killed the right hand of Count Waltz in a pitched battle."

From what I remember, the unlock key was 80 Microsoft Points at the time of release, which was roughly $1/€1. So, fairly reasonable all things considered, I guess? Still an odd thing to sell.

awful attempts at being funny aside, this is a great LP. It's one of the few times I've gone in knowing nothing about the game. I hadn't heard of it before, and I'm avoiding all spoilers now. I want to find out where it goes at the same time as Hbomb and Instant Grat :allears:
