Oh. Well, thanks for making me feel like a socially awkward penguin >_>

Sorry. I should have inputted the spoiler tags. Fixed, now.

But yeah, it's like another plot decides to show itself at the end of the game.

Since we're nearing the end, I just want to say that it never occurred to me that those chains Dante was breaking were the Chains of Judecca, nor did I know that he was unknowingly setting Lucifer free. You would think that I should have seen it coming, but...nope.

I know, right?

I enjoyed the eighth circle, game-wise, since the whole thing was an endurance run with different stipulations per malebolge.

First off:


Secondly, that fight with Francesco was really annoying when I first fought him. I don't think I can remember how I got passed him, aside from simply dodging and button-mashing.

Actually, the word for 'hell' (or an analogue anyway - Gehenna, or the Valley of the Son of Hinnom) comes from the name of a burning garbage pit outside ancient Jerusalem (though there are other connotations to it as well). It's where the bodies of bad folk get dumped when they die. Wait... I thoug...

<Reads 4 previous responses> Yeeeesh, am I the only one that hasn't read the book? :P Well I can still talk science with Paul at least. Gold melts at ~1000°C and boils at ~2850°C. I didn't look up the boiling point of blood since I don't need to get put on any lists, but lets assume its somewhere i...

I would totally want to learn more of this stuff from you, Brad. While I admit that a lot of the historical bits in Dante's Inferno (the poem, not the game) went over my head, the imagery of it left a good impression. And it's the kind of book that is completely out of my comfort zone for reading ma...

I'm curious to ask what will be the next game after Dante's Inferno is finished? If you haven't decided yet, it's cool. No rush

We've got an HD capture box on the way. Next time! Sweet! Hopefully you'll get the time to look at the other two points as well (particularly the first). On-topic discussion, watching smoke-satan make out with monster-beatrice was, uh... interesting. It makes me laugh every time I see it. Its just ...

That big guy in part 11 is Phlegyas, aka New Ernest.

Edit: Never mind. Forgot the game tells you his name.

Man, I would love for them that have put Virgil in there as sort of classics scholar Navi: "Hey, hey... listen! In the middle of the sea there lies a wasteland, that is known as Crete, under whose king the world knew innocence. There is a mountain there that was called Ida; then happy in its v...

It really is a testament to the game level design that I have no idea what specific room you are referencing.

The room from the beginning of Pt. 8.

Oh God, that stupid room with the spinning death thing. Its very annoying if you're trying to get all the collectibles in there.

It will resume shortly.

Nonsense. Desert Bus for Hope > Dante's Inferno.

Trixy wrote:yeah but playing it yourself you miss all the witty banter of the guys

Not if I had parts 1-7 play along with me =P

I got tired of waiting and just replayed the game, myself. Playing it again after a year or so, I still like this game. And I'll admit that I like Dante as a character, after he journeys through "the Wood of Suicides." Unsurprisingly enough, the ninth circle from the book is more interesti...

I can't believe it. I. Cannot. Believe it. Brad said that Satan is encased in ice (true) and has some people at his feet (false). How could he get that wrong? The main part of the final circle of Hell is Satan encased in ice up to his torso. He has three heads. In one head is Brutus, in the other i...

Because of this Let's Play, I decided to pick up the Divine Comedy again, and made it all the way to Canto 34 from where I left off (somewhere near the end of the 8th circle). And I have to say that I am genuinely scared to read any further. I'm not a religious person (nor atheist), but after readin...
