I just stumbled across the most amazing Tactics Ogre art from some Japanese person on Twitter. https://twitter.com/miyama_BB/status/1514985899976970241?s=20&t=9rNBgsu6-Df5p4YCLDs_9Q https://twitter.com/miyama_BB/status/1607712601089376259?s=20&t=43iFwR2YMxwLYAM6OspYsw

tithin posted:But yeah, we did it Thank you both! What a tremendous LP. I've poured hundreds of hours into the various incarnations of this game (maybe up over a thousand by now) and to see the way you've both detailed everything that makes it great, and written from the heart about it... it's pretty awesome E: Also, you finally did it!

Picked up the remaster with some of my overtime money because I really enjoyed the thread. Goddamn, it's even better playing it. E: Seriously though, I'm about to be a weenie that's opposed to things like slaughtering towns of the people I'm fighting to protect and the soundtrack is loving great. Love the horns. It also helps that its a lot easier to keep all these people and factions straight when I'm mainlining the plot and not viewing the plot in lp time.

I'm going to use the occasion (occasion being me buying my first account) to thank you for having made a let's play of this game. I bought It a while ago but remember not finishing it due to weird combat mechanics I never grasped. Thanks for helping me enjoy that game, it's amazing.

Waah's gone again, I think I'll be sending this deal to the LP archives soon. If anyone spots any egregious typoes or grammatical errors, let me know! I've updated the chapters page with all the chapters not previously included, and will spend a bit of time going through the chapters for typos etc Mindopali posted:I'm going to use the occasion (occasion being me buying my first account) to thank you for having made a let's play of this game.

Saw this a long while back, definitely going to read it once it's on the archives. Clocked in 330 hours on the remake and a bunch on the PSP version, so this is definitely going to be a good read.

tithin posted:Waah's gone again, I think I'll be sending this deal to the LP archives soon. I agree - it's past time. I don't know what travails are happening chez waah, but this is an LP for a game that is 13 years old that has been going on for six years, three months and has seen a remake of its game conceived, created and released. Simply stated, it's well past time. Sadly, the archives are so backed up right now I don't know if it will ever make it, but no reason not to start now.

I didn't see it as a critic. I never went on something awful until a few weeks ago, but I keep check on the LP archive website. It just seems like a case of real life getting in the way, and when they get time they uploads a lot of LP's at once. But I don't know how long the waiting list is for LP's to be archieved.

He doesn't have help? I thought there was more than one person on it, that sure explains a lot.

This LP is like that paradox where one keeps moving half the distance towards the goal without being able to get there. The LP archive hasn't seen an update since late May, so it's probably a moot point, but I think that I am going to re-read it from the start before the images and videos start to be lost.

tithin posted:Yeah I messaged Baldurk months ago - haven't heard anything since - real shame. I would say 'try again', but I don't know if it will help. Is there any other way to backup the photos and videos? They wouldn't take up that much space, and what I've found with LPs that never leave the forums is that the videos are lost first while the photos take some years, but eventually all that is left is the text. Presumably videos and screencaps could be stored offline just in case.

JustJeff88 posted:I would say 'try again', but I don't know if it will help. If the photos are on imgur, there was a policy change over there a while back that stuff gets deleted for inactivity after a period. So video will last longer right now waiting for barudak to return or hand off the reigns.

A script or, if completely lazy, just hitting Crtl+S on each relevant page is probably substantially safer and faster. So long as your browser saves the source images which at least Firefox does. It's also substantially faster.

Sorry for double posting, but the archive was just updated today for the first time since 24 May of this year. I would contact them again. Perhaps if you play up how long this LP has been in progress, you might get to jump the queue.

From what I've seen, that's how the archive works. Long periods of silence, and then updates for some time. There's been a game a day for some days now, from games that were finished in 2021 or 2023, so I don't know how he prioritizes the stuff. Nonetheless, it's been like this for some time, seemingly abandonned and then back to it.

It's a legitimate question to ask 'Yes, but when'? I'm not even trying to make fun of Baldurk. I realise that he does this out of the goodness of his heart, but I think that he's overworked, doesn't have enough help and gets very burned out, which is why he goes dark for months at a time. Purple's LP of M&M6 just went into the archives; that LP was started almost three years ago. I can only imagine what the backlog must be.

Worst case scenario, the lions share of the LP is backed up and it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to get the rest.

I'm going to read Helmet 10s incomplete LP first, but then I am going to read this thread from top to tip. It may never make the archives, but it's a great story that anyone interested in RPGs should experience.

I think it'll make it to the archive, just that it takes a long time to get there.

I just spent the last few weeks re-reading this thread from the start. Needless to say, it was very gratifying. Despite all of this content, though, I still want to fill in some of the blanks. I read Helmet 10s LP of the chaos route to the end before I revisited this thread, but that didn't quite make it to story end. So, I wanted to ask if there is a complete version of the chaos and neutral routes somewhere as I would like to see how those play out. An LP of either or both of those routes would be great, but I would also enjoy a plot synopsis or short video that summarises with key scenes (I'm not going to watch hours of routine battles). Even if most prefer Law to Chaos and Neutral is considered to be shite, I still want to see all three major intrigues. Secondly, I wanted to know more about Catiua. Specifically, I want to know what happens if Catiua commits suicide. I know that it leads to the unlocking of the Lord class, but I've never seen the dénouement of that. I've been wondering if this scenario is independant of Law/Neutral/Chaos because it seems to play out the same with the same major choices in both this thread's Law LP and Helmet's chaos, with the difference being the opaque dialogue choices that the player makes. To summarise, I'd just like to see the potential plot threads that weren't in this LP or the aborted Chaos one. I did see FairGame's complete LP from 2008, but sadly all of the images are gone. I don't think that it would make for enjoyable reading.

Yeah, everything comes back together in act IV and it's just one route again.

JustJeff88 posted:I just spent the last few weeks re-reading this thread from the start. Needless to say, it was very gratifying. Chapter 4 is basically identical (save for which Zenobians and Foriner sisters are alive) in all 3 paths. If Caitua is dead at the end of the game it checks your chaos frame with the 3 ethnicities native to Valeria. If any are negative Denam gets assassinated by a gunner during his inauguration If all are positive you get a scene in Zenobia where a few of the big names from snes Ogre Battle lament that King Denam is about to get wrecked by 100,000 Lodis soldiers sent to punish the ejection of the dark knights. Nevermind the fact that such a King Denam would have absurd amounts of legendary magic to destroy the ships before they even made landfall.
