The House of Stark

Postby Paul » 12 Jan 2014, 14:05

There are many games that Graham wants to play and mock, but he can’t really validate the personal time to do so because they’re awful. Luckily for you, the knowledge that you’ll be sharing the “experience” with him is exactly the excuse he needs to work through his hit list.

1. Is there a funnier line of videogame dialogue than "Watch out for its gas!"? Because if so, I can't think of it.

2. Surgeon Simulator 2013 stream? :D

I... I honestly think RE:MPG broke me a bit. The airplane scene... there was a quicktime event to press a button on the plane. there was a quicktime event to press a button. That... that... why would you do that?

Having sat through two campaigns, I can tell you it gets worse better. Watching Graham tilt and/or make quips at the more ridiculous moments has really made this stream. :D

Some of the best moments in RE: MY BRAND!/RE:MFG, for me, came about through my friend and I taking the piss during co-op. "My brand is in your earth, China" during the plane crash stands out, along with referring to revivals as a "boob punch".

I think the thing that really set Graham on tilt mode was the Twitch problems early on. Though I think that set a lot of people on tilt really.

I know there was one moment where something happened and Graham just looked at the screen, then turned to the camera, and waited before saying something. It was just one of those '...so that happened' moments that made me burst out laughing.

Trust me, I know. :P But having QTEs for things like having a zombie attack you, or trying to stop a giant zombie shark, or even just punching a guy is one thing. Having a QTE to literally just find and press a button though... it just seems absurd to me. It's like, I think we can all assume that Leon has enough brain-power to find and press a button when instructed to without our input.

This IS the same guy who, after seeing a video tape labeled "Happy birthday, Ada Wong!" in a human monstrosity cloning facility which shows a cloned monstrosity of Ada Wong emerging from a cloning pod, is genuinely confused as to why someone who looks like Ada Wong is acting strangely and trying to kill him.

I get the feeling this is why Helena and the real Ada were keeping poor Leon in the dark. If they told him anything, his brain might overheat and shut down.

I think one of the better parts of today's stream was Graham recounting all the crazy shit that had occurred previously.

I was also happy to see him take up my suggestion, even if it was a little anti-climactic. :D

Wait, that was the part? That rooftop part is the bit where playing as Piers is better?
Huh.


Regardless, I'm preferring playing like this, and treating Chris like a bumbling, alcoholic boat-anchor to the team.

I was referring to the weapon-flipping in my last post; the part that's better as Piers comes much later. I can understand why some people were saying you won't want it in the AI's hands; I was having enough trouble with it when I played it.

Also, as I said in chat, this campaign is why I hate blue Ada.

This was such a fun episode.

I know you prefer to go solo, but having Maya there was just a treat, she was a voice for us. My brain crawled out of my head at one point, tapped me on the shoulder and said "seriously dude, you are seeing this right? we arent just having a stroke or a Peyote trip right?

Maya: "wait, what?" "how did that just explode?" "Screw you physics"

I dunno. Assuming the idea was "biologically engineer super-soldiers", making a 200-foot-or-so monstrosity that can store biomass in some manner of pocket dimension inside itself, adapt its physiology to new threats quickly, alter its size almost freely, and take several small armories' worth of bullets, and even then only go down by a truly absurd and hard-to-replicate series of lucky shots and contrivances, I'd say it's mission accomplished, so crank up production. After seeing how long it took two people to kill just one of them (even with the occasional help of a third with a helicopter), ten or twelve of 'em released at once should easily be able to defeat just about anything, right?

Loved being able to catch the end of this in the morning and loved Maya being there.

Maya, once your and Graham's show starts, promise me you'll co-op EDF with him? I bet that would be so much fun!

Part of me wants to see Graham play RE4 after this just to see a good RE game, but that might be a little too much Leon.

I mentioned the name of the Chinese city in RE6/MFG, Lianshang, on Skypw last night with my girlfriend. She told me it can be translated as "Rotten Hometown." :lol:
