Mastigophoran's LP of Eternal Daughter goes into a ton of detail about how the limitations of the engine it was built on worked to make the game both harder than intended and exploitable by a sufficiently knowledgeable player, which Mastigophoran certainly is. The game itself is prohibitively difficult and even the few who have played it never made it far, but when expertly played and edited, it's a brief, well-paced Metroidvania adventure with an engaging story brought to you by a two-person team featuring Derek Yu of Spelunky fame. One of my all-time favorite LPs. Also, this thread's OP has a bunch of must-see skilled LPs, especially Accounting Nightmare's LPs of the Devil May Cry trilogy and yoshesque's Bayonetta domination.

Turtlicious posted:Chip and Ironicus, Slowbeef and Diabeetus, JordanKai and his partner, are there more LP'rs like this you'd recommend? I can't even really place my finger on what makes them entertaining, but I would definitely like more of that. If we're still talking great LP duos, all my favorites have been listed, but Phenwah does all his LPs with Lobst and a rotating third and they always maintain a flow and chemistry on par with any of those mentioned above. Haze is their essential viewing go-to, but their LP of The Fifth Element was my favorite of last year, and I've enjoyed all their other work (except Red Steel, which is from 2008 and really shows its age).

For everyone enjoying AccountingNightmare's glorious return, you might also enjoy Wugga's ongoing LP of Rayman Origins as it is also a hyperskilled and extremely thorough run of a very difficult yet well-designed game. It provides a sharp contrast to DMC4, showing how a character with only two moves on a 2D plane can also provide a world of depth and challenge, but I think it's an excellent way to fill the gaps between her updates.

Geektox posted:edit: Oops, my question was answered 2 pages back re: Witcher. So instead, are there any LPs of the Hitman games where every mission is pulled off flawlessly and any where they go hilariously wrong? There's also Nickmeister's LP of Hitman: Absolution, which is quite a bad game and he just kicks back and lets it do its worst.

Phenwah's stuff is always my go-to for great group commentary. I'm awfully fond of everything here (except the first Red Steel LP, which is from '08 and has poor audio and video quality even for then), and they recently did an off-SA LP of H.A.W.X. 2 that was really funny despite the burden of forced landing sequences worse than the ones from the NES Top Gun game.

If anyone's still looking for group LPs, you have to get on the Skate 3 thread that is very slowly creeping towards completion. The commentators are husband and wife, so obviously great chemistry there, and they're both very funny, which goes well with the theme of showing off how Sonic '06 broken the game is. Their YouTube channel also has a few LPs of indie horror games that are similarly charming, if very different in tone.

Is it this one, Blackout? I only recognize a few of the details from your description, but it looks like it could be. EDIT: Either way, let this serve as a recommendation for Blackout, it's really unique and creepy. Fiendly fucked around with this message at 18:57 on Nov 8, 2017 |

LPs of weird mediocre games with bizarre stories are pretty much my main interest, though not a ton come to mind. Limbo of the Lost is actually agonizingly bad but really fascinating, some cool ladies on another board covered odd adventure game The Orion Conspiracy, and Niggurath has done a few, chief among them being Michigan: Report From Hell.

ultrafilter posted:IGgy IGsen is doing an LP of Celeste that's worth watching. This breaks rules 2 and 5 of this thread, but I'll second the recommendation anyway. The game is expertly crafted and presented, and so far the LP does it the service of letting it do its thing, while still hitting all the cool bonus content and keeping a good video pace. IGgy's even been peer pressured into ending each video with a speedrun of what he just played, which is a neat addition.

Eh, they're still pretty good posting guidelines, though they could be reworded for readability and a less accusatory tone. A better OP would assume people are here to ask for recommendations specific to their interests, since hardly anyone comes here to promote threads they like anymore. I wouldn't mind being able to mention my own LPs when they meet the criteria people are looking for since no one else is ever going to, but coming here just to self-promote is still useless posting due to the obvious bias at play.

Dex01 and Dazzling Addar, both largely retired but they did a lot of good work in their time.

drat, forgot about Accounting Nightmare since she hasn't posted here in so long, but she used to be my favorite. Gotta add in Yosheque for doing similarly masterful LPs of the Bayonetta series. Also Devious Vacuum only did one LP but she's wonderful. Fiendly fucked around with this message at 00:24 on Mar 8, 2019 |

It's International Women's Day, so I'm gonna bring up a few more women of LP. Genghis and Shaw don't post here, but they're both hilarious Canadian artists who love adventure games and have covered a ton of them. Also Pete and Amy are a very funny married LP duo, Amy did the editing and I've stolen some of her methods because they were really good. Like almost everyone listed so far, they're on extended LP hiatus, but there's plenty of back catalogue.

I saw Split/Second on the schedule for SGDQ and it reminded me that the LP of it done here on the forums was really good. Extremely high level play showing off everything there is to see in the super ridiculous racing game, it's worth checking out if you missed it.
