Ooooh I see you are playing Diplomacy which is one of my favorite games but I can never convince 6 of my friends to play so that we can’t be friends anymore.

If you have an android device, get Conspiracy! it's a free playbymail version of Diplomacy--the one I'm using in the LP. my friends live around the world but it makes playing a breeze.

Next round I start up, I'll bring to BYOB in case anyone wants to play.

sooo... in the spirit of interforumetary research, what are some of your favourite games to play (high or otherwise)?

when I need to chill, Age of Empires 2 and Heroes of Might and Magic III are my go-tos, but in recent years I've added Infested Planet and the Creeper World games to my chill strategy list.

when I am more pumped, I like any and all shooters. The Turok 1 and 2 remasters are my recent faves. I miss the Halo games but i sold my XBoxes and my PC can't run the Master Chief collection... so I mostly play Quake, Doom, and Half Life mods.

when i need my adrenaline to spike through the roof, making me live in a constant state of fightorflight anxiety, I play Diplomacy!

HELLO LP I see there is alreadyt some trhilling game-playing going on :suspense:

what is y'alls favorite half life mod. I miss HL mods a lot. Natural Selection was probably my favorite, but most-played would be a close race between CS and DoD

i really like playing the ambitiously weird and bad ones. like the one where you play as the guy who finds the Xen crystal used in the resonance cascade. You fight on a boat and the final Xen boss baby attacks you in the cargo hold.

or the one where you play as Dash Rendar's son, Phoenum Rendar.

i also liked the tactical sniper scope mod attachement for the crowbar. very realistic!

my fave is probably the HL2 mod Minerva. level design is very tight, story is appropriately weird and barebone, atmosphere is excellent. just a very slick campaign mod all around.

hey i know this place!!!! i know this place very well!!!!!

yobbers you should all check out the Let's Play Social Distancing thread immediately, it is incredible.

actually, this is a good idea...


:siren::siren::siren: Hey, Let's Play! :siren::siren::siren:

let's help BYOB become acquainted with this subforum by doing a mini requests/recommendations right here in this thread.

LP Requests and Recommendations: BYOB Edition

please post any threads you think are particularky note-worthy or entertaining for the BYOBers to enjoy. i will second biosterous's rec: that thread is great!

BYOBers, if you're in the mood for a particular kind of video game to chill with ask away. we, uh, play a lot of'em and have a little something for everyone.

Fun fact after lurking for some years I actually joined the forums to post my own lp threads because I was in a bad place in life and needed something productive and creative to fill my time. I did end up helping me in some ways and for that I'll always remember the lp forum with fondness :kiddo:

I've been out of the loop for quite a while so can't recommend anything current. But the old chip+ironicus videos about hunting games or that one mdickie game were cool and funny

I enjoyed your Shogo: MAD LP! It got me to reinstall and play it after over a decade.







Also, Let's Play, don't forget to :5: the thread! This is the third subforum it's been to and somehow it hasn't gone gold yet.

unfortunately the rock paper scissors threads are gone, so someone with archives will need to find those. it was seriously one of my favourite LPs of all time

i think they are in the goldmine... some of the few LP threads to go there rather than the archive!

Uh I just discovered that there is a legit and academic book written about the concept and history of let's play from 2017



It sorta blows my mind that this exists but I guess I shouldn't be surprised seeing how integrated it has become into our entertainment landscape

Still wild to read Slowbeef quotes in the opening of an academic book though

hey! that's the paper where my Chron Trag LP got academically cited!

Netflix anime has been oddly hot or miss for me. I watched Beastars and really enjoyed it. I was kinda mixed on Devilman Crybaby. I watched Seven Deadly Sins a while back--haaaated it.

Evangelion is on Netflix which is cool. I rewatched that again and enjoed it again.

I heard that way back when dark souls was new someone tried to do an LP and they were doing some yet-unheard-of speedrun strats, running past enemies, dashing for specific weapons, etc, and the LP thread got closed for not doing it right. Is that real and if so does anyone have a link because i want to see

Was it this one?

What do you want to play? LP takes requests! (We have a thread for it and everything)
