DJ Fuckboy Supreme: Feb 10, 2011; And when you stare long into the abyss, you become aggressively, terminally chill

CJacobs, one of the things I liked about your previous LPs is that you've a good idea of when to provide commentary and when to let the game do its thing. There's been a lot of commentary (by virtue of two commentators) in the first "cut commentary" episode of Alan Wake, which takes away from the ~~heavyhanded and cliched but seemingly integral~~ narrative of the game. I'm probably not part of the core audience for this LP, since I've never played the game, want to, but lack a means to do so - it's difficult to pay attention to the dialogue in game versus you and Skippy's commentary. It's not so challenging when it's just Alan being a dick to everyone, but the more colorful characters had some interesting scenes the commentary detracts a little from.

That all said I'm still on board, good show otherwise.

Alan pushing the light over was so childishly dramatic I had to laugh. Couldn't just resort to a dramatic "fist slamming on table" trope, nope, had to continue to make the dude look like a spazz.

I played through the entirety of Resident Evil 7 tonight in one sitting! It was super duper fun! If you don't plan on buying the game or don't mind spoilers, you should watch it, I had a great time and the chat was great too. Maybe don't watch it in one sitting because it's 8 hours long.

I'm chewing through the game slowly on account of my studies, and it's great. Quite the departure from the last few games but it's got way more personality imo. Shame to learn it can be played through in eight hours, but whatevs.

lotta griping from 6'5 manlets itt

get on my level of 6'8

cjacobs I witnessed your glorious victory against the final DS3 ringed city dlc boss and want to thank you for streaming both since they were highly entertaining. I bought the season pass when I purchased the game, but found their level of BS too great for me to want to play through them. Your chill streams were a good compromise to catching the content "blind."

re: Alan Wake - I liked the twilight zone rip-off's line about "the guy in the diving suit" being a dream. neat blurring of multiple fictions.
