I guess I'm just not a very patient person, but the constant lightning out of nowhere is one of my strongest memories of BG1. The most difficult fight for me was always the one on top of the ship on the werewolf island. Close quarters, resistant enemies. gently caress that. About the actual recording, it really does seem that Bacter has gotten much better at controlling his part of the party! Congratulations on that, and also ditching Edwin. Now, if you could just get the best duo, Kivan and Viconia, into the party... Also, if I may make a (VERY advance) request? Please rob the cellar in the Ducal Palace. Surprisingly few LPs actually do that (Hammer Floyd's in the LP archive, for example, didn't, and neither did the crazy one with all the mods.).

Complete immunity to lightning makes the thing a cakewalk.

I've been rewatching the Amulets & Armor LP and I noticed this line in the second update "Bacter abandons me to fulfill his dream of being a cherry farmer." The way Khalid left the party sounds like a callback to this, even if unintentional.

I'll go over it once we get there assuming the thread hasn't beat me to it. We've recorded the next episode, and I'll be editing it over the next couple days. For those of you who have played the game before, time to take bets: Do you think Melicamp makes it?

According to my own observation bias, Mellicamp goes kablooie. Poor lil chick.

If the ironman thread is any clue, Mellicamp has clucked his last.

I've always had fantastic luck with that particular event, so I'm gonna hope you do as well and that he survives.

Oh no. I bought this thing and started playing along, and the chicken's, uh...goose? is cooked. It took me waaaaaay too many reloads to finish that quest right.

Tag Plastic posted:I was curious so I just did a quick Ctrl-F through both threads for "Meli" and "Chic": Even though I want to vote the longshot of Melicamp becomes loot for Sarevok, I have to go with the hope that Bactorc can do what I couldn't these last runs. Melicamp lives.

Just caught up with the videos and Edwin storming off the wrong way at the end of the last chapter was brilliant. I've never played this before despite having it on the iPad for months and you showing off the hidden secrets and obscure stuff is really good. So good that I've actually started playing the thing now.
