Meis posted:Yeah I reccomended that earlier, and agreeing with everything Fedule is saying here, I now recommend it even more. Seriously, it's pretty great to see the author of the game show up and start listening to criticism. Not only is the LP entertaining as hell, but there's a whole new level now. Personally I hope the experience will indeed help our aspiring artist here improve for the better. It's definitely worth following this, at any rate. Yeah, the thread has become pretty heartwarming, considering this is SA and all.

I dunno where else to post this, so I'll try here: Coulis' LP of Disaster: Day of Crisis has been deleted from Blip. Has anybody downloaded the videos? And would it be possible to have them restored somewhere?

Admiral H. Curtiss posted:I have them, that LP was amazing and it's a shame that it never finished. I can up the videos but yeah, it'd be great to have a permanent storage of them somewhere. Having them on Dropbox or somewhere would be nice - or perhaps one of co-commentators could reupload them to their YouTube channels?

I really loved Blood on the Sand, Mecernaries 2, Lowtax's Bad Games thread, and everything by the Tipping 40s. I'd seriously recommend checking out the Disaster LP re-uploaded just few posts above by Admiral H. Curtiss. it's one of the most hilarious things on these forums.

skoolmunkee posted:Yeah I am kinda curious about this too. It seems like some things get added sooner than others, is it basically just various individuals with logins going and updating things as they see/find them? Mine's been going over 2 months and it's not there, is it because it's tiny, not done yet, or have I messed up by not submitting a link or something to somebody? I searched for some LPs I've read in the past three months or so, and only those that got archived were found, regardless of their popularity or completion status...

I'm trying to remember the name of a ridiculous, amateur-made graphic novel with a dumb name and a looped Beethoven (?) composition for soundtrack that was LP'd some time ago. It was notable because the author actually dropped into the thread. Anybody able to help? VVVV Yes!

I'm not sure anything can top NSMB though... Have you seen the Mass Effect LP? That one is the best IMHO - and it starts on a very strong note.

MEAT! posted:It is different because biscuit aka the cynical brit aka the king of the internet puts himself and his ego before whatever he promotes. If I watch one of Chip's lps I'm sure I'll learn a hell of a lot more about the game than I'll learn about him. I used to watch his videos for a short while. Then I noticed every time there was another commentator, or whenever he replied to his viewers he acted like an insufferable arrogant prick, and not in the benign "haha it's my gimmick" way. It's really hard to take anything he says seriously after that.

Bozart posted:I just watched their first ME3 episode, and man, they are angry about video games. Personally I find that amount of bitterness to be repulsive. I've just watched some of their Skyrim and Wlaking Dead stuff, and I must say that they are refreshingly honest and balanced, if anything.

RoadCrewWorker posted:It's really easy for "critical" people to fall into the "being bitter and angry is my thing and people love it" trap where they end up hamming it way the gently caress up and shriek at the most minor things for minutes completely invalidating their previous thoughtful complaints, which is usually where i turn it off and never come back even if i generally agree with them. Their style is quite different from the AVGN approach to criticism. When they really dig into a game's shortcoming, it's closer to solemn and eloquently expressed disappointment than to exaggerated rage.

bladedsmoke posted:Spoiler Warning is good if you don't mind what is occasionally very harsh criticism of the AAA games they play. Their latest Skyrim season is already one of their funniest. Alright, I've watched more of their videos as background noise over the last few days, and i must give a resounding recommendation to them, despite some technical deficiencies they are the best video Lpers I've seen in some time.

RoadCrewWorker posted:I don't know if it matches your request, but i've enjoyed mynameisnotlilly's stuff on a second screen for a some time. He has the perfect voice for it and plays through incredibly long RPGs at a fairly thoughtful pace. He uses a bit of character definition to keep it from just running down the questlog as a milktoast paragon, but it's not overbearing - i say that as someone who really can't stand "in-character" or roleplay playthroughs - and shows some paths that i personally would never see so that's interesting. I must STRONGLY advise against any of his videos beyond Wasteland. He plays blind and is extremely incompetent. It took him like an hour to get out of the starting cave of Fallout 1 (the one where you just need to run past a couple of rats).

Earnestly posted:I need an lp to listen to as background noise. Here's the hard part. I've been lurking the forums since 2008. I've seen every default option this thread typically provides. So I guess I'm looking for a good informative lp that isn't that popular. There's also https://www.youtube.com/user/ArthurDWolfe whose content is ideal for background noise, and tends to be informative without becoming too didactic.

I think the games I mentioned earlier and elaborated upon by Curtiss / Paper Lion could go into laid back, at least in spirit. Anyway, a good (and underappreciated) example of an atmospheric LP could be Alice: Madness Returns. JustAFriend and Sinatrapod guide us through a completionist run of a game that is notorious for having way more style than substance. Thanks to their subdued but smart and overall dryly humorous commentary you can enjoy the creative audio-visual and story aspects of Alice without suffering through the repetitive platformer gameplay.

The new OP should also include a notification that the huge banner saying "This LP is also available on the Internet Archive!" isn't an advertisement, and you shouldn't be afraid of opening it, no matter what your years-reinforced anti-banner instincts tell you.
