I saw a thread called BritGAF. Is that a thread for British people or about Britain?
It looks like it's for people living in Britain and want to potentially discuss deals/news specific to Britain and meet up.
I'm not saying that Off-Topic is the most organized. It's pretty much intentionally left that way. But generally speaking if the thread was created for the express purpose of discussing a topic, it stays on that topic, no matter how broad or asinine the topic is.
Of course not. I think the intent of the warning is pretty clear. No more random posting just to fill up a page, and no more absurd tangents that are completely unrelated to the SBF. Asking to play a game is probably completely fine. I've seen it done in a lot of other community threads.
That said, since this thread is already on thin ice, I guess you might want to just avoid it altogether during the "probation" period.

There's also the IRC.
You wouldhave to join the chat and ask if someone played.
It's been too long since the last Creepy Anime Bullshit video.

I hope a new Life is Strange will be the 3:00 video.
Yeah its not. You should go to the Steam chat or IRC if you want matches.
Yeah I want a new one as well. Hopefully they do another one.

Liam and Pat full LP of Criminal Girls.
The true sequel to Barkley we've always wanted.

I think it's still going to be Bloodborne. They recorded a fuckton of it.
9pm is always up for debate.

I'm becoming tempted to get one of those even though it would be a very dumb decision. I need help.
Didn't they say they had problems with the cables or something? It seems like we're probably not going to get videos anytime soon, which is unfortunate.

Hmmm true. Maybe Bloodborne would be an endurance run type playthrough? I'd like to see that everyday for a while.
Vita TV has gone for like $40 with controller before. It's a very very cheap dumb decision.
I think the Vita TV has the same issue that the old PS3's had. Something about an HDCP issue that would cripple streaming/recording.
Pat said it would be every day
Too bad it's only 30 minutes each.

Really? Alright. I think it's safe to assume that the 3:00 videos would be Bloodborne. I don't think they would alternate the times.
30 minutes a day seems fine to me
They are going in blind and it might take a long time then.
I would be ok with more than 30. 45 min to maybe an hour.

Bloodborne isn't a super long game to be doing that. Considering the DLC for DS2 as well, there's no way Bloodborne makes it longer than DS2.

Longer episodes than 30 are bound to happen, unless they are trying to stay consistent with video times.
I can see things that can take a long time, like
Forbidden Woods
I doubt anything can reach DS2 lvls but 30 seems too short.
We will see how long it takes later on.

I never picked up on it but what's their schedule for video releases?
I think this happens the most with really great games. That's why they have always fall back on things like RE or SH2 when they need to.
Had the same problem as well. I was hoping to get the videos week by week with the episode releases, but mechaweek made kind of squashed that idea. Hopefully we'll get that now that Mechaweek ended. Bloodborne is going to take up a daily segment for a while now though so ehhhhh.

I say roughing 40 parts, depending on how quickly they pick on the game.
3 and 9 eastern time.

Well 30 minutes of them throwing themselves against a boss might be better than 50 minutes of them throwing themselves against a boss.
But Pat was here last night and said not to worry about them getting stuck, so I'm sure its going fine.
Either way, still gonna have to tell Woolie to stop scrubbing it up if Pat doesn't do a good enough job for it.

bad gameplay lol
I'm not watching RER2 anymore because I want to play the game myself. I'll watch Bloodborne since I'm surely not going to own a PS4 for several years because I'm poor as shit.
For real. I've put 47 hours in and I'm a few areas into new game plus, level 103 and I done a lot of the content in my first run. This might be a long one but probably no where near DS2.
20 hours or so? I really doubt they'll be that quick about even without counting replaying areas.

Every day huh? Sweet. I feel like I'm gonna like this playthrough.
It could be edited down to 30 minutes.

I tripped into beating the game at around 16 hours for my first playthrough. But I missed a lot of things, because of my foolishness.
If they already recorded 13hrs and the game is as short as you say then there is nothing to worry about with how many parts they will make.

This is the moment where a 5th Zaibatsu member is introduced so that the guys don't burn themselves out trying to film footage and edit and do everything to placate a never ceasing fanbase.
In regards to the BB video:
I don't like the name Patsworth, and damn they didn't see the monocle in the option screen?
3 PM/9 PM EST
And I'm sitting close to 30 without feeling close at all due to some playing super slow, idling, grinding, and helluva exploring. I just really doubt they're the kind of guys to spend only 20 hours with the game. I expect adequate exploring, a lot of retalking to people, and a lot of reading item descriptions.
And I'm happy about BB too Mara. I just think getting more Rev 2 videos won't be any easier with BB being daily.
I was afraid of spoilers but at the rate that they are gong i am golden.
But is the game really only 16hrs?
I would have thought longer.

16 hours after missing things? That's quite short for a From Soulsy game.
At least its daily, maybe even more.
Mad world at best only has 1-2 episodes left.
Wait nope, they are probably going to start up Life is Strange and GoT again.

Thanks, it's been a while since I've actively looked forward for videos for their current LPs
Its really up to your playstyle. I have but in more than 16, and I am not done.
Some people have beaten the game in 44 minutes, but they
used a duplication glitch, and only did mandatory boss fights.

Demon Souls is about 20 hours. And DS1 isn't much longer.
DS2 is really the only long souls game.
Banana Aeon

It's not really that short, it's just that the game can technically be beaten at an early state.
Yeah, my current playthrough I'm revisiting pretty much area whenever something changes, and trying to find things that I miss.
Not really. My first playthrough of DS1 was about 16 hours, and I only missed Ash Lake in that one.
It'll be daily, like Pat said. I don't think they'd do more.
Sounds about right.
Maybe mystery box stuff and other series too.
I completely forgot about mystery box. You know, this nice talking about SBFP more. Now I don't feel super awkward when we talk about something I have no idea about.

Who would it be tho? One of the legion of dork girls?
And yeah, it's kinda shit and so are they.
I remember Pat confirmed somewhere BB will be daily at 3pm always. I'll look it up
Never forget the amazing LPs done by the Best Friends. Like what?

Maximillion x SBF?
If they're committed to doing more than 1 LP subsequently, they will need someone who can cut,edit, and splice video the way the Grumps do. It's inevitable.
Found it
I guess that frees up the weekend for some side stuff like Mystery Box
I think he changed the schedule because he said in here that he would be doing it everyday.

I like the idea of weekdays being for LPs and weekends for more one offs and series like Mystery Box.
