  BigTwofer1 (Click box art to go to post) Latest Updates Sleeping Dogs - Complete!        Extra: Our discussion on why Sleeping Dogs is so good compared to other GTA-style games Bioshock Infinite - Complete!       For the last two years, my LP team has done multiple LP threads at once several times. This time it's Travis (BigTUnit1)'s turn with simultaneous LPs of Sleeping Dogs and Bioshock Infinite. But instead of managing two separate threads, we're just gonna keep them together right here. It's a BigTwofer1! ThornBrain fucked around with this message at 21:30 on Nov 15, 2014 |

---Game Description--- Sleeping Dogs is an open world sandbox game set in crime-riddled Hong Kong. If you've played any of these games, you probably know what to expect (for reference, the original title of the game was True Crime: Hong Kong). It's fun to play and to watch, though, as the gameplay is tight and the story and acting are all very strong. The game is also riddled with douches. The story is such: You are Wei Shen, a Chinese-American cop who goes undercover in Hong Kong to take down the Triad gang, the Sun On Yee. The plan is for Wei to get in good with the leader douche Winston, all the while whittling down the gang's influence. However Wei walks right into the middle of a civil war, as prince douche Dogeyes has splintered off into his own faction of the Sun On Yee, and even more of the leader douches are vying for the spot of chairman. Wei must skirt the line between his devotion to the Triads and to the police force, all the while doing reprehensible things regardless of the mission. And wearing stupid clothes. ---LP Description--- Since there's so many side missions compared to story missions, Travis will simply do whatever missions he feels like doing at the time of recording. There will be at least one story mission per video, though. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------                                            Extra: Our discussion on why Sleeping Dogs is so good compared to other GTA-style games            (By an-artist-complex)   (By Epee Em)  (By Ninjathehedgehog800, YouTube)

---Game Description--- Bioshock Infinite is a first-person shooter/adventure game set in the fictional flying city of Columbia. Gameplay follows the original Bioshocks closely: use of guns, bizarre powers (Vigors, in this case), a very brutal melee weapon. Where Infinite takes a detour is the Skyhook, one of the most exciting modes of transportation in recent gaming (which doubles as the aforementioned melee weapon), and your partner Elizabeth's...powers. More on that later. But where the game shines on its own is the story and the presentation of the city, its inhabitants, and Elizabeth. It's an engrossing, and potentially uncomfortable, romp through themes of infinite universes, racism, spirituality, and fate. The story is such: You are Booker Dewitt, a private investigator who has been sent to the flying city of Columbia to find the mysterious girl, Elizabeth, to pay off his mounting debts. He enters a world ruled by patriotism-turned-religious zealotry, and he is quickly marked as a false shepherd by the inhabitants, destined to lead the future prophet astray. Thus begins a self-fulfilling prophecy of everyone attacking you, so you destroy the city and rescue Elizabeth, who is being pampered into the future prophet. Way to go, Columbians. Does the story stay that simple? gently caress no. ---LP Description--- We intended to have two versions of each video: voice-commentated and subtitled, but we failed to actually hold onto the raw footage to do the subbed versions, so this is an all-commentated playthrough. Don't stress though; our commentary alternates just as easily from chaotic snark to serious, thoughtful discussion on the game's writing and design. If you would still prefer a quieter LP that better emphasizes Infinite's atmosphere, we recommend Sundowner's LP. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------              (By an-artist-complex)    (By SilverDelta, Tumblr)

This week, let's begin Bioshock Infinite:  Subtitle commentary coming later on Travis' solo channel, since the usual edited commentary version would be slapdash at best with this kind of game.

COP. Some video problems early on, but they sort themselves out after the race. Travis got a new computer between recording this and us commentating it, so recording footage is a dream for him now. Bioshock Infinite returns next week as well. I decide early on in this video that this is my new favourite LP of ours. You'll see why.

Thunderfinger posted:I'm liking the new microphone Thorn, but I think you're a little quiet, you should turn it up just a bit and it would sound a little better. Also I'm quiet, not the mic. Believe me, I pushed the volume in my editor to as far as I'm willing to let it go.

  Booker's got some freaking strong arms. Reminder: the subtitle commentary will go up on Travis' channel and on his own time. But seeing as he doesn't have a lot, I can't guarantee it'll happen.

  This week we spend some quality time getting to know Elizabeth. Turns out she's about as ADD as Agro. Also I'm out of my funk for the most part, so Majora's Mask will be coming back this weekend as well. I made a post on our Tumblr about some other goings-on with the channel.

That's as good a segue to this picture as any: E: New parts coming this weekend, if the constant render issues let up.

Wei Shen: Wedding Planner Things get even more shocking and intense this week. But first: cakes, flowers, and the return of a flu conscious Crazy Fedora Man. Audio might be quiet during cutscenes on the edited version. Had to have Travis put the commentary into the videos due to the source vids glitching out on my end.

Without spoiling anything, Travis told me today that he recorded through to the end of the story for Sleeping Dogs, so we have just a handful of parts left now. But he's also doing the DLC, so we still have plenty of ridiculous forthcoming.

Shoeless posted:Edit: Also in part 12, the reason Wei doesn't take a boat to follow Ilyana is presumably because it would be drat suspicious if the guy took her and then you just immediately tailed him in plain sight to where he was going. Whereas going by motorbike he won't see you, and then you can get a boat to get to where his place is once he's arrived and you know its location. So that makes some sense. Now, why you didn't just go buy some fancy cell phone or something and bug it and use that as the bet instead of a person, I have no idea. Because excitement, I would bet. With Ilyana he's more likely to go straight to where he's keeping the rest of the girls to drop her off.

  I'm thinking of dropping the subtitled version and instead having Travis re-send me the raws, then I'll just upload those. Anyone especially against this idea?

Wei Shen: SUPER COP!!! Or: Wei Shen: Detective Disappointed by Nightmare at North Point? This will make up for it considerably. Unless you live in/follow the events in Ferguson, then this update might seem incredibly poorly timed.

Samizdata posted:You guys have me busting up. All I can say is - The Mugiwara in Yoshi's username means "straw hat" in Japanese (he's a One Piece fan). He made a YouTube account with the name, but the registration page arsed up, and he had to make another one that he called MugiwaranoYoshi. We started our LP channel and couldn't think of a name, so we played around with Mugiwarano and came up with StrawhatNO. It was so nonsensical that we had to use it.

Don't worry guys. Our individual usernames aren't interesting either. Mine is literally just something I thought up because I wanted a weird username.
