 Art by twitter user @Awrysquare. Headers and update banners by fellow goon shadowmar. Indigo Prophecy (known as Celsius in Europe) is a cinematic interactive drama action-adventure video game developed by Quantic Dream, the soul-bound serfs behind visionary auteur David Cage. Released in 2005, it was met with intense critical acclaim, with reviewers describing it as "forward-looking" and "thoughtful" and many of its highest praises going to the story and execution thereof. The characters were given quite a bit of press as well, being singled out as "endearing". It was eventually remastered in 2015, which is the version we'll be playing for the thread. Becoming wildly successful, the game spawned an entirely new genre of "movie games", where you play the movies! Successes in that genre can be seen nowadays in the likes of Telltale Games (dead), Supermassive Games (alive) and Quantic Dream itself. Being a cinematic story game, most of its advertised selling points were about the innovation of branching storylines like the infamous choose your own adventure novels. Unadvertised selling points is that the gameplay is just Simon Says.  My name is FutureFriend and today we will be playing David Cage's breakout game Indigo Prophecy. I'm 99% blind on this game, so guiding me throughout Cage's master maze will be ChorpSaway, Madithen and a_raving_loon. The Let's Play itself is done live in front of an audience of just those three knuckleheads. Due to the cinematic nature of the game, we will not be providing cut and uncut commentary like we usually do.  Hey, this OP seems pretty reverent of David Cage? Weren't you one of those funny guys? I respect David Cage. Much like him, I also produce bad content people somehow like. Doesn't this game handle mental health and suicide in a tasteless way? This game deals with suicide and mental health in the dumbest manner possible; a bad phone call will land you in the insane asylum. It's the trashiest garbage and I can't help but find it funny in the same way as cinema classic The Three Stooges (2012). Are you going to show off all the endings? leave me alone  1. No Spoilers. This is a blind LP, buddy. If you ain't seen it in the video yet, it ain't worth talking about.                                                           FeyerbrandX shares with us what a classic character of cinema thinks about modern art.  Geemer shows me that I've missed out on a lot of new pokemon  FeyerBrandX proves that videogames and gaming are art.  FeyerBrandX sums up online (the villain, not the experience).

FractalSandwich posted:I see the "up next" algorithm is on point as always. i irony poison myself every day and for my hubris, god has cursed me to have insane tories also associate with it ishikabibble posted:Also please maintain a piss counter tia currently into a mad frenzy to edit my backlog to have this toilet signifier idea in Hostile V posted:Once upon a time either the Machinima folks or the people at Rooster Teeth did a really lovely video series that was nothing but repeatedly doing the intro murder from the first release dubbed so the peeing guy was provoking the protagonist to murder him and him going back in time to try and not murder him. I only bring this up because those videos have probably aged like milk and yet are still probably better than any edition of this game. dont spoil our finale, troll FeyerbrandX posted:I've done as asked and isolated "that's cool" upload it to youtube and become rich off the ad revenue solely gotten by synchtube groups annoying their friends with it

Epicmissingno posted:Does David Cage know what a massacre is? You know, since massacres tend to involve more than one death. It's either that or a commentary on the media reporting everything as worse than it actually is. I'm going to go with the former. describing a grisly murder scene as "a massacre" is perfectly cromulent. hell, ill say it, use it to describe any murder

Simply Simon posted:He does seem to be the kind of person who is like "I said I'm sorry for ruining your life, that means we're even and you have to forgive me?!". if lucas lived in 2018 he would run the burger king social media account and talk to randos about their mental health anyway, update time!

cat beard posted:If I remember right it corresponds to the d-pad and the action buttons, so red and red lighting up would mean press up and Y/triangle. I don't know how they handled this on PC. im playing on a dualshock 3 and it automatically maps the qte poo poo to the sticks. the directional poo poo has to be head-on into that direction, which uhhh is kind of a problem when ya gotta put in 12 directions in 5 seconds vvv we're basicly done with recording the game and i forgot about remapping it every session unfortunately, WHOOPS FutureFriend fucked around with this message at 05:34 on Nov 8, 2018 |

RareAcumen posted:Also you can clearly pinpoint the best example of this game being a mess when every object in his apartment came after him one by one. hell, whenever i update (like right now) my apartment does that too, in a sort of societal revenge kinda way. good idea to not watch this update at work, since this is the update with the requisite cagedog "videogame woman shower scene"

klafbang posted:Don't forget that auteur, artist, and philanthrope David Cage recommends you only play his games once to not break the immersion. I'm inclined to agree with him, except I recommend you play them one time less than he does. yeah, i think it should be played atleast 4 times. speaking of playing, this update a lil different, this sequence took me a long rear end time so there's one thats all of the recording and one thats more short and to the point, would rec watching the edited one more

May David Cage spend more time on his next project (excluding the time he spent on the sex scene or whatshernames table dance) than I did making crazy poo poo for this thread for poorly understood reasons. thank you for continually spending an excess amount of time on being the greatest dang poster in this thread

GamesAreSupernice posted:The sheer amount of snark in the OP is staggering, even by Internet standards. It even acknowledges it's a blind LP, and still manages to be outwardly negative toward the experience without having seen it through. If you think you're going to hate something, why go into it in the first place? Would time not be better spent playing something you think you'd enjoy? Enjoy unironically, even. thanks, mighty no 9 meltdown guy

David D. Davidson posted:Well on a more positive note, any plans on doing any other David Cage games since they're coming to PC soon? i've been thinking about it but probably not, i've heard beyond two souls is mostly very boring and i think any lp we do of detroit will just mostly cover the same ground as the mendrinkingcoffee's lp of it. if i ever run out of ideas far in the future, i might potentially redo heavy rain since those streams are not good. maybe if his next game is nutso, i might think about that.
