For reasons beyond me, I'd like to see what is essentially a (semi)blind LP of World of Warcraft. Something similar to Giant Bomb's 30 Day Trial: World of Warcraft but continuing to some more satisfying end-state than just "welp, I guess we've played this for 30 days now". The expansion can really be whatever. If no such thing exists, a non-blind LP is probably just as fine. Any recommendations?

ETA: offsite is fine.
I'm not sure that any such thing exists - it's such a massive undertaking. The closest thing I know of is the Game Grumps, where they tried to go through some high end content for charity, but it's only 5 episodes.

Can I get some recommendations of LPs where the game itself is totally crazy (and potentially story heavy) in some sense - be it really out-there or just plain nonsense - and the LPer is pretty chill and is willing to let the game speak for itself for the most part?

I think MeccaPrime's Link's Awakening Let's Play counts here.

Sometimes it's not the bomb that's retarded.

I don't know why, but I feel the urge to remind everyone about the LP of The Sniper 2.

My favourite part is everyone's changing reaction to the mandatory 2-minute intro before 30-second levels.

Any good ones of the new Prey? Current or planned ones on the forum are preferable, but I'll settle for high quality youtube if no one's going to do a Prey LP for several months.

PoptartsNinja did a pretty great LP of Star Trek Online. I think he's also involved with the ongoing Star Wars: The Old Republic LP but since I actually want to play through the storylines in that game myself (unlike STO, which I hated) I haven't been following it.

Really good shout. Thanks!

I'm trying to learn how to not suck at Risk of Rain, and I remember that the Binding of Isaac LP here helped me a lot at that game. I've searched the master list to no avail, so I guess I'll have to go off-site; any good Risk of Rain LP, preferably one aimed at newcomers to the game and where things are explained?

I thought it was something like he admitted to getting a female friend or acquaintance extremely drunk on purpose so he could gently caress her (which is rape)? I could be misremembering though.

So... yeah.

I've always thrown around the idea of doing a Risk of Rain LP, but I guess the question is are you looking for a guide to unlock things or just a general approach to getting through the game?

Anyone got any LPs that I could have on in the background? Preferably with a group with good chemistry, though not Chip's or the sonic crew's. I've watched most of theirs already!

Genre of the game doesn't matter too much, I mostly just want some entertaining background noise.

I would say Maxwell Adams would fit your needs perfectly. A lot of the videos on their website were hosted on viddler, but they're all archived on the lp archives. https://www.freelanceastronauts.com/games.php

Is there an echo in here? No, it's just me recommending the Mercenaries 2 LP by helloitsdan and lithuanian dad again, a LP so good it got its own special framing in the archives. If you've already watched it, then try for their Lost Planet 2 LP too.

This may not fit the thread, and maybe you already follow some, but have you considered streams?

Personally, I'd recommend TieTuesday, Smight and A_Raving_Loon (and more) for a group of friends that often play and guest together. (Loon is moving from Hitbox/Smashcast back to Twitch soon.) For a largely group focused channel I'd recommend Loading Ready Run. They have a large variety of content since they run the channel more like a TV station with different themed shows, like co-op games, tabletop games, awful Steam (and other) games, and a good number more. Even if you can't catch them live, watching VoDs, either on Twitch or their respective YouTube accounts*, works well as background content.

I do watch quite a few, actually, but I have a really hectic work schedule and can't always watch when they're on :shobon: I want these for when no one I'm interested in is on, but thanks for the replies everyone! This should do me for a while.
