Actually since dead-ends unlock art you want to hit all the dead ends just to see if the art is any good. Maybe not for an LP, though. Pittsburgh Lambic posted:Ghostly Hamlet Dad is off to a rough start, and Yorick's still nowhere to be seen. I think it's reasonably non-spoilery to say that once you're off the trail of Yorick skulls, you're not getting back to Shakespeare's version of events any time soon. Of course, even I haven't gotten through a whole lot of the game, I just took the skulls for my first playthrough, so maybe it will join back up in the future? Just, don't be expecting skulls near the start except when playing as Prince Hamlet. Oblivion4568238 fucked around with this message at 16:53 on Mar 25, 2015 |

no they will not posted:Justify this thread's existence, you little beast I'll do it for them! This is, in fact, a video game that can be bought on Steam. As a game played on computers, it is a perfect fit for this, the LP subforum. On a semi-relatedly note, I'm still waiting for the next update to your Peek-a-Boo LP. I understand that making updates for it is very time-consuming, but it would be nice to know how close you think you are to getting together that next set of pictures.

I don't think there's any cause for alarm here, with this book about murdering and usurping our brother. Let's turn to page one.

We have a plan, and if we stray from it, things will probably go very wrong! Let's advance to the next step.

Pittsburgh Lambic posted:Vote's still tied, and I'm on the road at the moment and won't be able to get an update out until this evening, so putting down a deadline: Voting closes at 7 PM CST. Actually, by my count, at the time of your post it was 5 waits against 4 kills, it's just that Glazius didn't bold their post. We're sure tied now, though!

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are going to die.

The sentries will perhaps have actual weapons training, being guards and all, so let's go to court and kill the courtiers. Honestly, a little disappointed Ryan North went with that joke instead of a Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead joke. There needs to be at least one of those somewhere in here.

Hey, I never posted anything about it when you asked the thread (because I'm a terrible, lazy person), but as someone who also owns this game, I'd be fine with taking over after you if that offer's still available. I don't have PMs, but I do have an email I made just for using on SA: oblivion4568238sa@gmail.com That said, for a finale, I have to recommend the Yorick path. It's the first thing I did, and I'd say it's better than most of the other content since Ryan North gets to make jokes actually about Hamlet instead of pulling them from thin air, so they hit more often than not.

Pittsburgh Lambic posted:Sent you a few things! You can do whatever you want with them. Thanks for all of it. Seems you put a fair bit of work into all of this. At least there's still time to just sit back and enjoy the ride, but I'll figure out how to make all this work on my end towards the end of this path.

Hi! I'm here! I just wasn't here over the weekend. I've still got interest in continuing this thing, I just haven't yet got things set up for seeing how it will go on my computer. Take your time writing your closing thoughts, and we'll see if I've put something well enough afterwards.

So! Between Christmas prep, work, and general laziness, I hadn't actually gotten anything done these past few days. But! I just now got done taking a bunch of pictures out of a segment not previously covered in the LP, and I will be putting them together into an update / test post tomorrow, because then I should finally have time to both be a lazy bum and get some LP work done! So be excited for that! Or... just keep going like you normally do. That's probably good enough.

Hello and welcome back to Let's Play To Be or Not To Be! This LP is now under new management, which I'm sure will go well for everyone involved. Before we dive into the story itself, I've put together a sort of test update to make sure that things work out well enough for you. As you go in, keep in mind that my laptop has the freakish resolution 1366x768, so images may be a bit different than you're used to. If anything looks wrong or out of place, please tell me so I can (hopefully) fix it before we start proper updates. So, let's go back to before the story even began, and take a look a bit behind the scenes. quote:From here, we'll read the acknowledgements. quote:No book comes together without an author feeling like thon's in debt to SOMEONE. Hm. I think we need to know more about the person who wrote this. Let's get in the author's head by, uh, BEING the author. quote:
Well, that just takes us back to the story itself. However, I don't think those acknowledgements earlier were quite thorough enough, do you? Let's go back a choice and ask to read more acknowledgements quote:Gosh, well, I suppose if we're really doing this, then I also want to thank everyone involved in the series of events that led to me being here today... Let's avoid starting the story as long as possible. quote:Ryan North was born on October 20, 1980. Since then he has done the following things (this is NOT an exhaustive list): Well, that's it then. Assuming everything in this update looks okay, we've got no choice now but to start the story. Of course, I leave the where and when to you. We could make a run at it from the very beginning again. We could go back to chess. If you saw anything promising off to the side of the Yorick path, feel free to suggest it! Whatever it is you who are left here want, let's do it! Oh, and an updated map will come... later. The version I got a while back is actually quite a bit behind after the LP took a path from beginning to true end, and editing it to be current all at once is kind of draining! But it'll get there sooner or later. Oblivion4568238 fucked around with this message at 02:58 on Dec 8, 2015 |

We're not dead yet, it's just been a busy time of year. And also I was bashing my head on trying to figure out moving individual selections in a layer on GIMP. Turns out you have to use a function that is automatic in every other image manipulating program I've ever used! But, with that dealt with, let's Chess.quote:
Hey, you know what? I used to be decent at chess. Instead of going right for the end or anything, let's see what happens if I give it a go, completely blind, no looking at a board, the choice map, or earlier in the thread. quote:
Really? Well, let's futz around with the chessboard image, see what the board looks like right now- Oh. This is why people don't play chess in a purely text format, I suppose. quote:
From there, I originally chose to go on to the same ending from earlier in the LP, but then I realized this would be a good opportunity to get a different ending out of the way. We're only a few lines away from the relevant choice, so let's walk through to it. quote:Gertrude looks at the board, looks at you, and smiles beatifically. Artist Information posted:Emily Partridge is an artist from the pacific northwest and you can totally tell. She makes cartoons and comics and illustrations and painting and arts and crafts and stuff. So, that's how you can be both the worst chess player and get yourself killed all in one go. Proper victory will come later, as there isn't enough time left in the day for it now. Again. I'm certain the schedule will stabilize once we're out of the holiday season.
