Teledahn posted:Well, let's see here, you've got a few things going for you:  We've had a section here for off-site LPs before, so I'm pretty sure it fits just as well. A character insert VLP of Persona 4 isn't my thing but maybe it works for someone else, if you aren't able to get into either one of the well done screenshot LPs. Dogpile on the newbie just sounds like elitist bullshit.

no you see he recommended a bad LP, truly he is not fit to have paid $10 to post on an internet forum. If he lurks, perhaps one day he can be the kind of quality poster who writes five paragraphs about being a quality poster. e: I take back my defending him.

@Teledahn: Thanks for explaining. I'll be sure to add a bit more information about the LP in general as it is of good quality (just with a more humourous bent than typical completionist LPs usually are.) I'll also endeavour to keep reading and be a decent newbie too. o7 @dscruffy1: Thank you for pointing that out. I was going to do so in this post as well - part of the topic rule states that it's alright to post an off-site LP if it is of good quality. ^.^ @Cake Attack: I shall lurk the hell out of these forums and none can stop me. Muahahahahaha~ Also, 'she'. ^.^)b

Okay, I shall endeavor to keep them to absolute minimum! I only pointed out my gender because everyone was referring to me as 'he'. I don't expect or want preferential treatment of any kind due to something like that - I know some people do and it is, quite frankly, silly - but I figure everyone has the right to be referred to by the gender they identify as. I won't bring it up again unless necessary and will leave it at that, since we've strayed a bit too far off the topic of the thread. I did not mean to cause a derailment. Sorry! Thanks to all for pointing me in the right direction for a (sort-of) painless journey into these foreign lands. silversatyr fucked around with this message at 13:32 on Jul 31, 2014 |

It was a recommendation and there's no harm in that  If LPs where folks do voices or read things out loud aren't your thing, then move along, guys. Even though some posters didn't agree, silversatyr gave a good explanation on why she enjoyed it. Nothing wrong going on here, folks!

KillHour posted:I'm watching through the Kay Plays Dark Souls LP recommended in the OP, and it's fantastic so far (etc) I loved watching Kay Play Dark souls, she really has the right mind for it. She has 2 FEZ videos up on her Youtube account which I just found out today. She is straight up killing the puzzles. You may have to have played the game to get how impressive it is; but she cracks the alphabet cipher in the first video, right outside of the starting village. She certainly COULD have gone online and cheated to find it, but after watching how she plays Dark Souls, and how clearly she hates spoilers, I believe she did it legitimately. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C33Yp7TCmds - code busting starts about 31:30 EDIT: I totally broke rule 5 with this post; but the achievement was really amazing and I wanted to share. Just consider this then a general endorsement of her channel. Captain Lavender fucked around with this message at 19:01 on Jul 31, 2014 |

First off thank you. That was funny but it wasn't the one i saw. It was almost for sure Arma 3 cause the graphics were good and it was very sunny. Also made by Americans/Canadians.

I like Super Great Friend's dulcet voice, the fact that he doesn't joke around with a bunch of other people, and his encyclopedic knowledge of cool games I would never actually want to play myself. It makes for good background video to getting other stuff done. Who else is like that?

Chewbot posted:I have to say, this is pretty fantastic and the fact that the main guy sounds like Homestar Runner just pushes it over the top for me. That's Beagle. He's pretty chill Aussie and in addition to putting up ARMA highlights from ShackTac he's also done an amazingly funny and incredibly well edited play through of XCOM: Enemy Unknown on the hardest difficulty with ironman mode enabled. He also explains the reasoning behind his decisions clearly and concisely. For a long time was the go to guy to watch to learn how to play XCOM, at least until the expansion dropped. Big disclaimer: He has two very different series. XCOM: Ironman Impossible is the very tightly edited series with short, punchy and funny episodes. Live and Impossible are live recordings uploaded (almost) in full. It's interesting to see his decision making live but it's nowhere near as entertaining as Ironman Impossible. He's also currently doing a live series of the Long War mod beta, which makes so many changes to XCOM that it's beyond incredible and adds tonnes of depth. It's also ball-breakingly hard even though Beagle has a habit of making it look easy when the RNG helps him out of a bind. The downside being that the videos are really, really, really loving long but you can skip the end of the video where he takes ages painstakingly setting up the squad for the next mission.

Someone who is a friend of RooseveltMD (or the man himself, I guess) or someone who can host videos, please PM me about the ~10 GB of Harry Potter videos, and please upload them to a video host for the public after you get them from me. I have uploaded them to my Dropbox, but would like to avoid handing links out here, as the last time I did that my Dropbox account's public file access got shut down due to bandwidth.

I'd like to recommend Chewbot's Animal Crossing LP to anyone with even a passing interest in horror stories. The LP is of the narrative kind, so don't expect to find out how to max out your house in a week or something. That being said, it's engaging and provides a fascinating background to the events of the game; which is particularly impressing, because there isn't a whole lot that happens in that game. I think this actually plays in Chewbot's favor, because it allows him to develop his narrative however he prefers. Yes, it's basically a fanfiction, but drat it it's a good one.

I would like to recommend SelenicMartian's LP of Strike Fighters 2. Laid-back commentary, good sense of humor, and he provides a lot of interesting facts about planes and anything and everything to do with them. Here is a short, three minute video to give you an idea about his commentary style, although there's no actual trivia in that video. As a bonus, there's also quite a bit of making fun of Third Wire, the people who made SF2 and who are somewhat incompetent. And by "somewhat" I mean AI Aces becoming worse at avoiding the ground, flak being completely useless, and tanks rolling across the sea to get to the battle.
