Also, for anyone who wants to recommend LP's for the fourth post, please make sure you say why people should watch it. Perhaps Artix is totes fine with doing that work himself, but hey, give the guy a break! But yeah, blurbs are good.

It might be a good idea to split the various paths up between different LPers, since different approaches can help with the relative sameness of each Part 1 before the paths diverge in Part 2. Plus you don't have to LP all of such a massive game.

like Spy vs Spy but LPer vs LPer. hmm....

I'm not terribly bothered, but if we want to be sticklers for staying on topic, then the Sandcastle is the more appropriate thread for discussing the myriad ways of "how to" do an LP in general, so that'd be a good place to plan the details of a Fire Emblem LP. This thread is really intended to be for request LPs and recommending them, so you might actually get more hits for advice in the Sandcastle.

edit: Artiiiiiiix! :argh:

Is this still the thread for LP recommendations, or is it just for requests now? Just gonna ask anyway, I guess: does anyone know an LPer with a good reading voice who does (and reads aloud) long, text-heavy games? I recently figured out how to rip audio tracks directly from Youtube to my phone and I'm looking LPs that work well when you basically use them as audio plays.

it is and always will be for both as long as i mod

Hey Let's Play, I just wanted to take this opportunity to recommend and promote some cross-forum activity going on...

The Sword of the Bastard Elf!



Original a 2015 GBS CYOA thread, it was goldmined, became a front page article, and was later successfully kickstarted into an actual product! who says goon projects can't be successful?

Anyways, I bring this up now because there's an interactive virtual reading of the gamebook currently going on in GBS, which in turn inspired the author in question, Saint Isaias Boner, to do a new LP of the game--but this time using the published game book! It's been running in GBS the last week, but we've moved her in LP for people to check out and join in. SIB suspects we're not quite a third of the way through, so there's still a lot to see if you want to join in and participate.

Thread is here: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3943916

(and is stickied if you lose track of it)

Anways, if this sounds vaguely interesting to you, I highly recommend it! It's hilarious!

Does anyone have some recommendations for good RTS LPs (besides the ongoing C&C series, I've already watched those). I was thinking something like Age of Empires, that one Dune RTS, etc.

I did a Dark Crusade LP ages ago. Gimmick being that the thread decided which province I'd attack between each turn. Had lots of fun with that one. It's an SSLP, though, so ymmv.

I respect that.

I'd love to cater to more people by getting in to VLPs myself. Unfortunately I'm horrendously uncharismatic.


Try it out sometime! You might surprise yourself. I've had a go at most formats at this point amd it has really helped me figure out what I enjoy doing the most. SSLP... solo VLP... group VLP... HLP...

any LPs here/offsite of Distrust? iirc somebody here started one at one point but that's all i remember

that was me. it fizzled out because i was real busy irl and created an overly complicated workflow for the game plus had aging hardware to record it all on. been thinkin' of rebooting it, but i'd still stick to an SSLP rather than VLP.

Chaos Argate, CJacobs, and liquidypoo are just wrapping up RE7 and are now futzing around with bonus stuff: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3975301&pagenumber=1&perpage=40&userid=0#post516664648

Argate's good at the game, I enjoy their sense of humour, and they are simultaneously informative while fun to watch. highly recommended.

not sure if Argate will get around to 8 eventually... but CJacobs has done a few solo streams of RE8 on hardcore mode.

Huh, didnt know a metric by which Fire Emblem wasnt an RPG existed.

i mean "JRPG instead of SRPG" is a valid distinction and calls to mind stuff like Chrono Trigger and FFIV rather than Shining Force and FFTactics

Our cup currently runneth over for good RTS LPs at the moment. two ongoing right now. both SSLP. both are covering the campaigns but being supplemented with detailed history of units and development, as well as breakdowns of use in multiplayer and overall strategies.
