XENOMIC'S LET'S PLAY THREAD!

Posts

Pages: 1
So for those who aren't in the know-how, I have been doing Let's Plays for a long time (4 years or something like that??), upwards to nearly 4,300 videos (a good portion being MUGEN one-off videos). As of right now, I am doing a Let's Play series known as Smashfest, in commemoration of the new Super Smash Brothers being released. The Smashfest is a series of Let's Play videos dedicated to each character (or series in some cases) that is in the new Smash game, where applicable (some won't get any LPs at all, such as Pikmin). As of right now, Super Mario Brothers: The Lost Levels, Dr. Mario, Yoshi's Cookie, Tetris, Donkey Kong Land, and Megaman 7 are all done and ready to go once I'm done uploading the remaining MUGEN videos I have left. I am currently deciding on what will be the next LP (and what other games to do for the Smashfest). This is where I can use your input! The following is what is currently lined up:


Super Mario Land 3 - Wario's Land
Kid Icarus - Of Myths and Monsters
F-Zero GX
Earthbound
Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem
Super Punch-Out!!
Pokemon Red (GB) or Pokemon FireRed (GBA)
Star Fox
Super Metroid
The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap
Sonic the Hedgehog
Pac-Man
Game & Watch Gallery

(For Stages)

Super Mario Kart Advance


(For Brawl)

Ice Climbers
Metal Gear Solid


However, note that I am mostly limited to SNES/GB/GBA/GBC/GBA (NES/N64 lags like a mother. Don't ask why NES lags, I haven't figured out what's causing that issue. Same issue with PSX. Wii, DS, and Gamecube are obviously excluded due to computer specs. 3DS and WiiU are also excluded because not on computer and don't own them). That leaves a bit less than I'd like to choose from, but there's still a good helping of games to choose from! So go ahead and give me what YOU think would be a good choice to do for this series! Note that EVERYTHING on this list (bar Metal Gear Solid, but it's been years since I last played it, and Fire Emblem I've beaten in the form of 11/12) will be BLIND, and most likely other games you choose will also be BLIND.

Just be wary that I do not have the best voice in the world, and I'm not THAT great of a commentator. I try though! ^^;

This thread may be updated with future LPs, and will only post a link to the FIRST video of a LP, if I feel so inclined.
Alrighty, since I'm almost done with my FE3 LP being uploaded (I have some MUGEN videos to take up 3-4 days before I have to do more videos), I need to decide what will be the next LP I do. I have a limited amount of games yet to still do for the Smashfest I'm doing, which is from the list above, and this is all that remains:

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Sonic Mega Collection Plus
Metroid: Zero Mission
Pokemon FireRed (GBA)
Earthbound

Of note, only Sonic Mega Collection Plus and OoT I know what to do in as I've streamed those already. The other 3 games I know nothing about and have never played them (I HAVE seen Earthbound a fair number of times though, and since it's a RPG, shouldn't be hard to do anyways). So here's the dealio! Go ahead and vote for which game should be the next to be LP'd!

After all of these are done, the Smashfest will end with hopefully Melee (no Brawl sadly as I don't know if I can get it to run fine on emulator. Never tried it at all, nor do I have it). I do have a set list of games for after Smashfest ends that I'd like to do, some of which are the following:

Final Fantasy X International

Final Fantasy X-2 (Sadly, not international as I can't get a good patch for that)
Final Fantasy XII (Ugh...)
Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII- (Never played yet)
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles (Never played yet)
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time
Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light (Never played yet)
Kingdom Hearts
Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix
Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep Final Mix
Mario Kart 64
Mario Kart Advance
Mario Kart Double Dash
Metal Gear Solid
Metal Gear Solid 2 (possibly)
Kirby 64
Destrega (Ugh...)
Soul Blade
Yugioh: Forbidden Memories ( T-T )
Megaman 8

...And a host of other games. I can list them if anyone is interested in them. In fact, feel free to suggest games for me to LP, whether it be blind or not. I'm actually thinking of redoing my Final Fantasy VII and Super Mario RPG LPs, to be 100% informative and whatnot, showing off everything the games has to offer and whatnot, but don't know if I will.
Howdy! Long time no see ya'll! So today, I have finally finished the Smashfest after nearly 8 months of doing it. Sadly, I dropped Pokemon FireRed and Metroid Zero Mission to hasten the Smashfest (because I was tired of it by this point), so those won't be featured in this at all (Pikmin and Metal Gear Solid also will not be featured). I am currently uploading the rest of the Earthbound LP and will be uploading the Super Smash Brothers Melee LP (no commentary on that one) alongside that and then by itself when Earthbound is fully uploaded.

So here's my question to ya'll: For Melee, would anyone be interested in a video, or think it's a good idea to do a video, for how to abuse the AI on Very Hard Mode/Lv9 CPU? This is in reference to Very Hard mode in All-Star (1v1s aren't that bad, 2v1s it depends, but 3v1s are garbage in that mode. As are the 25 G&Ws), which I'm hoping will help people deal with that mode and get that bonus (which is a garbage bonus to try to get, on par if not about as bad as the No Damage Clear bonus...). Yay or nay?

The next LP after Melee, I have yet to decide upon. I'm half tempted to do a LP of Tales of Symphonia, which I am currently playing for funsies for the first time, but I'm also tempted to do the Kingdom Hearts series or continue the Final Fantasy series...
For those interested, now that the Smashfest is finally done, the next big long LP is going to be Kingdom Hearts I. Lots of fail to be had (and in fact, there already is a bit of fail in it, oh goodie!). While doing this game, I'm also going to be doing smaller games (the one currently already done is Mario Kart Double Dash, while the one before KH was Capcom Fighting Evolution). Other short games will probably follow suit, what they are I don't know yet. I need to figure out what I feel like recording at night (no commentary on most of the short ones due to them being done at night, and I don't commentate during fighting or racing games anyway). So hopefully that'll be stuff that'll tickle ya'lls fancy~ The first part of Kingdom Hearts is already up tonight, while the first part of Mario Kart Double Dash will probably show up either before I sleep tonight or during tomorrow before recording anymore Kingdom Hearts!
1 week, and Kingdom Hearts is already 100% done! So while slowly uploading the KH LP (For anyone watching, how's the audio? I need to know if the game audio and my mic audio are fine. It's really hard for me to tell, what with having hearing problems and whatnot), and now I'm already beginning the Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix LP~ So that should be fun!



Meanwhile, things like at 2:45 tend to happen a lot for me in this game. Hm...I wonder why that is (also, this is before upping the volume on the mic so that's a bit higher than that in later videos). And then of course later in the game I stop dying. Wonder why...hmmmm. I may be up for taking requests concerning the game too (I still have a level 50 save file, whereas I was about level 80 when I finished it because grinding for Ultima Weapon takes forever...). Depends on the requests though!
No response on the audio eh? Guess it must be fine then! I hope...

In other news, Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix is 100% done now! Only things I can think of for doing videos is one just for Limit Breaks, and another just to show off everything in the journal (which would just be a reading episode). Likewise in KH1 for the journal, though I haven't done that video yet. Think I should or shouldn't?

So, now that KH1 and KH2 are both done, what to do next? I am considering Birth by Sleep Final Mix since I'm on a KH streak, but I'm also considering Final Fantasy X. There's some other games that I want to do as well, but I'm also thinking of taking a small break from LPing (2 1/2 weeks nonstop of recording will do that to a person, and with 2 long RPGs in a row at that at 100% completion) so that I can work on Touhou Fantasy a bit more too (still gotta get through the hell that is dialogue and eventing...). Which of the two would YOU guys rather see, for those of you that actually follow my LPs at all?
For those who don't keep up with my videos on YouTube, Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep Final Mix is nearing it's end! Just working on post-game stuff (100% the journal for all 3 characters, which is gonna take a while) and then the final episode and secret episode stuff, followed by the abilities exhibition for the game. So what's to come after this? Well, I'll leave that up to you guys to vote!

Final Fantasy X International (PS2)
Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII- (PSP)
Megaman 8 (PSX)
Soul Calibur II (GC)
Spawn (SNES)
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates (DS, assuming I can record that right)
Final Fantasy Adventure (GB)
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga (GBA)
Kirby 64 (N64)

Those are current choices, one from each system that I have on my list. So have at you! ^^
So, I spent 1 hours and 10 minutes on KHI and 2 hours and 6 minutes on KHII Final Mix (omitting some things such as synthesis items and world stories from KHII) recording a 100% file/the Journals for both games. My god is the Character section freaking long! Anywho, I am wondering if it'd be worth even uploading these at all, or if I should just scrap them? And if I do go through with uploading these (good lord I don't know how long a 2 hour file would take to upload...), if I should do the same with BBS?
Hoi! Quite a long time since I said anything in this topic, eh? In any event, recently finished Final Fantasy X-2 (original) 100%, and now thinking of what to do for the next Let's Play. So, here's a list of games that I'm contemplating doing next! For those interested, please make a vote for one or two of these games in the comments below! DS games are a no-go right now as I'm not sure how to record those yet (I think I used OBS before but I forgot):


Final Fantasy VII (Remake of old LP with commentary and more accurate data on fights and the like)
Final Fantasy XII (PS2. Original version. I contemplated doing International but decided against it. No Yiazmat will be done though!)
Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII- (Going for 100% as usual)
Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII- (No 100% or anything out of the ordinary. Just a standard blind LP for the game)
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles (Blind, as I've never seen nor played this game)
Final Fantasy Adventure (Blind)
Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga (Blind)
Megaman & Bass (Blind)
Megaman X (Blind)
Megaman X2 (Blind. Only when MMX 1 is done)
Megaman X3 (Blind. Only when MMX2 is done)
Megaman X4 (Blind)
Megaman X5 (Blind)
Megaman X6 (Blind)
Megaman Zero (Blind)
Megaman Zero 2 (Blind)
Megaman Zero 3 (Blind)
Megaman Zero 4 (Blind)
Wario Land 4 (Blind)
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (100% run, but depends if I can get it working right and whatnot)
Destrega
Soul Blade (Blind)
Soul Calibur II
Donkey Kong Country 3 (Blind)
Sunset Riders
Well, here's the results of what I have thus far:

Megaman X: 4
Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII-: 2
Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy: 2
Soul Blade/Edge: 2
Final Fantasy XII: 1
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga: 1
Megaman Zero: 1

I'll probably give this until around Sunday before I start the next LP. Don't know if I'll start it on Sunday or not, since folks will be bugging me bout my birthday and all that, so probably won't get anything done that I want to get done. Blech...
Howdy! Been quite a while, hasn't it? Well...aside from doing a bunch of LPs (Megaman X1-3 and a remaster of my old ancient FFVII LP), been working on Touhou Fantasy, dealing with a left thumb that doesn't work properly, and BSoDs that just don't want to stop. Anywho, since my left thumb isn't working 100% of the way yet, decided that my next LP is going to be FE7. I already got the Prologue and Chapter 1 recorded (and converting right now. Was working on chapter 2 but BSoD happened right at end of the chapter so nullified the entire video right there...*sigh*), and I know there's a few things that I need to think ahead for.

1) The Gaidens. I will probably be trying for these at the very least. How easily viable it will be for someone like me to do so, I don't know yet, even worse when BSoDs can happen at any random given moment.
2) The split routes. I know that you have to beat Eliwood's story in order to unlock Hector's, but I'm wondering if I should even bother doing that mode? I mean...it basically is having me replay the entire game twice, bar a couple extra levels added. I don't know if I WANT to go through it a second time or not.

That's...really all there is to that right now. I'm hoping the LP doesn't take TOO long (it will, I already know it will because it's FE and BSoDs combined = bad times...), but we'll see. If my thumb doesn't recover by the end of FE7, not sure what I'll be doing afterwards...but thought I'd at least give a heads-up on this for those who don't know. Originally, Crisis Core, Megaman X4, or Dirge of Cerberus were going to be next but...ya know.

Loooong loooong time, isn't it!? Well, thinking of actually getting back into the swing of things again, no thanks to Final Fantasy Brave Exvius and lack of motivation getting in the way! So here's a Strawpoll for anyone interested in voting for what I'll be playing next! \ o /
