Man this faux Marilyn Manson stuff is almost bad as the original.

The adventure has been chosen.

YAAASSSSS.

 

[ArjanN]

Oh, I love the game but it's not great to watch. Episode 1 especially. Nothing happens in EP1. And also I already know it.

I wouldn't say nothing happens but it's definitely mostly a lot of exposition and setup. Also, there's basically constant voiceover which isn't really ideal to talk over.

I like that they're exploring stuff form this year they missed though. kinda feels like most of the Giant Bomb guys finished like 4 games this year.

Just FYI for you guys who haven't played it, 1 is pretty slow compared to how the rest of the game gets going. Basically it's all set up and terrible, terrible lingo that no one in their right mind uses. Like saying that "Final Fantasy Spirits Within is one of the best sci-fi films ever made."

Yeah that's hella ridiculous

I loved the QL for that game because of Jeff's reaction to all that stuff.

I've been using "Go fuck your selfie" ever since, so you are W-R-O-N-G

Why is Austin pushing the whole Free aspect so hard?

 

[louiedog]

not sure this trend of playing recently released adventure games that I haven't had a chance to play is what i want from my live streams.

It's been like 9 months.

Yes!

More games about teens?

I think episode 1 is still great.
I would agree it is the weakest of them all (so far) but it's still a great episode.

 

[Noray]

because it's F R E E

 

[Fantastapotamus]

Because the next game they'll play will be Freespace. that's why he left a space after free.

I think episode 1 is still great.

It's the pilot episode, where all the exposition has to happen. That's why only playing EP1 is just not a great choice.

Chat not connecting for anyone else?

 

[DamnBoxes]

Does The Asylum have a music label now?

Yeah they specialize in direct-to-soundcloud jams.

 

[Data West]

Is GBEast's new thing going to be full playthroughs on games that make their money off narrative?

 

[mintyice]

Life is Strange? Guess I'll do real work instead zzzz

 

[stump sock]

gripe city in here, good grief

I wouldn't call it great, but I wasn't much for all the set up in that episode.

Alright, you got me there.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

I'll only watch the life is strange playthrough to hear vinny make fun of the way they speak

they speak very peculiarly

 

[daydream]

i really wanna play life is strange so this is great

 

[tuxfool]

GBE needs to work on their transitions.

 

[MadLaughter]

Eh, I think it's where they're at their funniest, so I'll live.

Geez Breezy, way to dump on the French.

Well, the finale episode is coming out in a week. If anything, Life is Strange is too long to kill in a couple of streams and there's still unreleased story. I do think it really made me decide not to buy Contradiction.

 

[Backfoggen]

I'm never going to play Life is Strange so I guess I can watch this.

 

[AWizardDidIt]

LiS is my current GOTY. I'd be psyched if they ended up doing a full playthrough of it.

 

[Fantastapotamus]

i really wanna play life is strange so this is great

It's not though, cause if you ever play it you will know everything about EP1 and it'll be a slog.
Anyway, this is a good way to play Undertale. LiS on one side, Undertale on the other.

 

[Lijik]

Their sponsor is crunchyroll and now that its fall, maybe theres an anime out there to help you remember the long lost days of summer
follow the money offer code: beast

 

[strafer]

so is this like their playdate stuff?

 

[daydream]

eh i don't really care, if it's good, i'll have a fun time replaying it

and i'd probaby go for different choices, anyway

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

It's been like 9 months.

some people wait till the entire game is all out before playing it. So depending on how you play your games, it's still not fully out yet.

They also played through Until Dawn and Contradiction, which were fresh releases on their platforms. I'm not saying that i dislike this because of it might hurt sales or something, i dislike it because i haven't played them yet and want to so i wont watch these features. meh

 

[daydream]

so, is emily in this

 

[KingKong]

Life is Strange seems fine until you realize they could have been playing Phantasmagoria 2 instead

 

[Hot Coldman]

so, is emily in this

No, not to my understand

Spoiler

the palm of my hand, bitch

 

[Jeevesmeister]

At one point the player character gets dragged to a "fetish club" that takes place in someone's living room and gets their nipple pierced. It's pretty much GOTG.

 

[Data West]

When's the next King's Quest episode coming out? Feels like it's been forever

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Yes austin

please don't say or try to lead them towards anything.

 

[strafer]

oh right, its vinny playing...this will be fun

 

[Kelas]

I could frame any one of you in a dark corner

So don't cross me motherfuckers

 

[Backfoggen]

Or Tex Murphy.

 

[OdysseusVA]

Im already bored. Who voted for this?

 

[RomanticHeroX]

Based entirely on playing the free episode until I couldn't do it anymore, the dialogue in this game is so very bad.

 

[Zaph]

I love adventure games, but the praise this game gets makes me think I played a completely different game.

 

[Nugg]

Is GBEast's new thing going to be full playthroughs on games that make their money off narrative?

A GBE playthrough of a game with multiple choices and branching is pretty great, and won't spoil anyone's playthrough. Until Dawn was perfect for this, and so is Life is Strange.

 

[giant_frying_pan]

Or Tex Murphy.

Or Dreamfall Chapters.

(I'm actually interested in Life Is Strange. Only seen what was in the QL).

 

[DamnBoxes]

I'm too busy shoving Undertale down people's throats to actually play Life is Strange.

 

[OdysseusVA]

pls respond
