It is blind, but Scruffy made a great and comprehensive LP of it over at the LP Zone. It has a little bit of fumbling but he is generally very competent and the videos are edited to minimise any unnecessary running around or backtracking.

To go quickly is foolish. To go slowly is prudent. Not to go; that is wisdom.
I've bounced off X3 several times, I suffer from Elder Scrolls syndrome and by the time all the recommended mods are in I'm tired of the thing. Any good LP of Albion Prelude? Not so interested in the stories, I just want to have something in the background to check occasionally and go "Hmn... now the LPer has 20 cruisers on their fleet and an automated merchant empire."

I'd also like to see an LP of this... Well, any X3 game really... Although I'd prefer a baby's guide approach more, that game is complicated as gently caress.

Hi! I remember a Faster Than Light VLP on here that I really enjoyed, but I unbookmarked it like a dumbass and I can't find it in the lparchive either. I remember you could volunteer to have your toons in it, and I had a well meaning mantis captain Bastard in there, who would be stabbing away ineptly at the sensor controls with his useless mantis scythe hands until frustration inevitably would get the better of him and he'd chirp defiance and furiously skitter off to the telepad, shotgun drafting anyone in his way into this bizarre kind of frontal assault against reason which is a boarding party for a land war in space.

I seem to remember 2muchAbs and anilEhilated being in there too?

Man I pity the poor fool who tries to take this game on, it's like trying to LP Eve or something. It might work if you kept to a specific narriative, but it would take someone with decent writing chops.

Wouldn't need to be blind, could work with an expert explaining the game mechanics. The problem with that game is it looks absolutely fantastic but completely opaque controls-wise; hell, last time I tried I did not figure out how to get my ship to loving move.

Speaking of complex and obtuse, how about LP'ing that Rain World?

Most likely we're talking about the kerfuffle in which VB and Psychedelic Eyeball got shadowbanned after a dumb Twitter flamewar, but I would be rather surprised if that were the reason CC chose not to post a thread. That debacle was at least a year ago if not two (I forget) now, and in between that CC has a lot of activity on this subforum.

It was a while after the truth came out about Schmorky. Lowtax planned a post-mortem stream of sorts for GamingGarbage and his daughter was on it. He had explained the situation to her, because Schmorky had previously been to their place and interacted with them, so she was poo poo talking Schmorky on stream and they had decorated the place with some empty diapers to poke fun at the whole thing(according to Lowtax it was the kid's idea).
This really upset certain people who proceeded to sling some ridiculous accusations of child abuse at Lowtax (never you mind he had just found out someone he trusted was a creep and did everything he could to cut him out of his life). Turns out accusing the site owner of child exploitation wasn't the best idea and he perma-banned them directly (with a big custom message not even letting them access SA). Several LPers here decided to post banmes in protest soon after and left.

It was early 2017 but I think the fact that they live together and have their own LP forum with a thread there might actually contribute to this.

Here's what I'd do.

1) Install Something Awful Last Read. This is mainly for comfort, as it adds a button to the bottom of posts that lets you view just that one post, which will make things easier.

2) Open the different updates as single posts. Let them load completely.

3) Save these updates. In my case (I'm using Firefox), I would use "Save Page As..." and then save the page as "Web Page, complete".

What this does is download the HTML file and also all the resources the page required, which will go into a separate folder. If you repeat this for the different updates, you'll end up with a set of HTML files you can open offline and that have all the images. This has the advantage over something like a PDF that you also have GIF animations, which are very important for some SSLPs.

I feel like I should plug Klingon w Bowl Cut's LP of Siege of Avalon. For the folks who are interested in a screenshot LP of a pretty rare RPG, Klingon is producing an excellent LP of a game that not a lot of people that I know ever played.

https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3855019

There's a ton of content and he's just getting started. The format he's chosen is really working well for him, and is probably the best way I've seen it presented due to the comprehensive nature of all the content the creators put in there. There are video LPs of the game, but they feel unsuited; the game game is unique among RPGs in many ways both in story, presentation and gameplay/system. Even the backstory of the game's development and the developer (and their failed attempt at early digital distribution and sales) is pretty interesting, and I wasn't honestly ever expecting the game to receive the treatment Klingon is giving it. Ever.

I have strong and fond memories of playing it, and Klingon is doing it justice in superb fashion. I hate to see such an amount of effort go unappreciated, so I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone with interest in RPGs, good writing and rare games.
