You guys blocked me from commenting on Youtube! Now I have to come here to say how much I enjoyed seeing you guys struggle with the fireball AI. HE STAYS AT YOUR LEVEL GUYS, COME ON.

Oh. I get why you guys blocked me.

Loving the idea of this, I can't wait to watch all of the videos, listening to you guys play all Sonic was a treat, especially towards the end.

Trying to figure out a way to be complimentary without it coming off as sarcastic.

You must have said something pretty awful for me to block you... Like awful as in containing some kind of racial or homophobic slur. At least that's why I usually block people. : / But tell me your ID I guess and I'll unblock you.

Triskitout I think? I'm pretty sure I just gave you guys poo poo in a heartfelt way about being bad at stuff. To be fair, I did it a lot. In my defense it was a coping mechanism for some of the Silent Hill videos.

Ready Player One is a fantastic book, like a crazy mash-up of .hack meets willy wonka meets 80's pop culture references and videogames.

Ready Player One is a great book. It's dystopian Willy Wonka set in Second Life in the 80's

and also kind of .hack?

Also when else does that bowser music play? I've only ever heard it in Mario RPG before.

We never know which games need to be learned beforehand until, not only after we play it, but after we release it. The occasional misstep is a way better outcome than losing the first impressions of most of these games.

I definitely agree, but also in that once that initial impression has been reached is it just unfeasible to do a quick google during recording? At least for simple gameplay rules or something.

The dynamic shift with her being there was interesting. You seemed like you were trying to be a bit more and the opening poo poo was incredibly amusing to me. Also because you're people I follow actively I don't click like. Sorry :(


Also, that explanation of what PAX was seemed like he was bullshitting someone.

I know this is the wrong LP but I thought this was still relevant. This has so many layers to it I'd have to think it's satire. They've also done Mario related stuff but it was just mushroom cupcakes, and didn't have the "professional" cosplay.

This is oddly amusing.

My criticism is: Please don't post videos for your Let's Play that have nothing to do with the Let's Play besides the fact that you were playing the game at the time. It doesn't really bother me any because I enjoy you guys' podcast stuff too but that's kinda what the other posts were trying to get across.

Quoting to just sort of disagree. I usually listen to LP's more than watch, and if the choice was no content (as video footage had been lost) or this, then this was fine by me.

I vastly prefer the video being there of course, but what can you do.

probably should watch the shows you profess to like in a more timely fashion and post less whining about spoilers.

I've never watched it so maybe I won't like it, but I don't know why you're so concerned with my TV viewing habits haha.


ChairMaster posted:

Yea, whats the deal with that anyways? How is it that people get spoiled on a TV show that's already aired? If you like it so much then friggin watch it and if you don't wanna watch it then why care if it gets spoiled? This isn't the 1960s where if you miss your show you can't see it until reruns. You can record a TV show automatically when it comes on or you can use the friggin internet that's spoiling it for you in the first place to watch it.

My TV viewing doesn't usually coincide with when a show is on TV so I usually like to watch it way later. Is the concept of spoilers really alien? They put up the warning for a reason, because it's a legitimate thing. I mean I understand with this style of TV watching I'm more likely to get spoilers of course.

peeps real mad about spoilers for some reason

It makes sense to not finish the RPGs, since they're so long and text heavy that they don't really work with the run button format.

The reason they did one Yoshi story episode was probably to minimize the resharing of people's yoshi island opinions.
