[Let's Play] The Path: Voting ending soon... get them in!

joshofalltrades

The OP title is amazingly awesomely appropriate for this game "...get them in!"

I feel kind of dirty for just reading this thread

Thetheroo

This has the potential to be hilarious.

joshua1

I think the people who made this game should be feeling dirty. But I think they have realised by now that the dirt wont come off!

Dewar

Looking forward to this. I'm vaguely interested in some of the parts of the game, but wasn't sure I felt comfortable paying a company cash for this... experience.

I wouldn't want that shit on my credit card. You'd go to a job interview with the FBI years later and they'd have a file titled "rape games purchased" just waiting.

This didn't die before it could even begin, did it?

Figgy

Nope. I'm continually procrastinating getting the first one up. I'm insanely busy with my final semester ending, but it's coming. Expect a glorious rebirth when Carmen gets fucked up.

:winky:

Spoiler:

I feel so dirty.

Bump because the other Path thread got knocked up (against its will in a forest by a wolf) and this one deserves no less.

Or is this game really that slow-paced?

joshofalltrades

Yeah, we need your LP Figgy.

WE NEED IT

Toxic Pickle

When I saw the main Path thread crop up on the front page, it reminded me that the LP had never happened, and I'd wondered about it.

Now here it is, the LP on the first page because apparently, someone else wondered too!

I guess Figgy's either too busy, or else playing this game melted his mind.

joshofalltrades

Man, school's almost over for me. If Figgy doesn't do this then I'm going to.

What's up with the LP of this? I was curious about this game ever since reading the other thread. I mean, I know little girls get "raped".. But.. I'm still curious..

You are a bad man.

Toxic Pickle

Figgy mentioned in the main Path thread that he was trying to make the LP of this, but wasn't sure how to edit it to make it at all interesting. Hopefully with some sage advice from other veteran LPers and a bit of Yakkety Sax, he'll be able to put something entertaining together that will keep the viewer engaged through the long treks of nothing that sit between the little girl and rape.

Basically, the main problem with this game is that it isn't a game... it's a gothy, foresty 3D lobby that the player navigates through to get to the next non-interactive wolf rape cutscene.

Again, I think Mighty Boosh said it best:
It's not a game, it's a sequence of events. A sequence of events culminating in a rape.

joshofalltrades

I said it in the other thread and I'll say it here.

Figgy, if you want to LP this you'll absolutely have to edit stuff out, or alternately speed up the footage through the boring bits. I would have had wayyyyy too many videos in my IWBTG LP if I'd kept everything raw, and they all would have been of me going through the same things over and over again until I died at the same spot. Use Windows Movie Maker, it's pretty decent.

And hey, if you don't feel comfortable or don't have time for editing stuff I don't mind helping out. You could always email me the raw footage and I'll whittle it down for you.

Good luck, my man.

cj iwakura

I endorse you taking the game on if Figgy doesn't, josh. (I don't think you'll have much reason to curse up a storm, though.)

joshofalltrades

This might not be frustrating in the same way as IWBTG, but it sure looks frustrating regardless.

DeMoN

frustration=hilarity.

Pretty much. The best LP's are a lot like Chevy Chase taking a pratfall at the beginning of SNL -- people hurting themselves is funny.

joshofalltrades

Hey guys, I just got this game working after nearly a year of ignoring the fact that it's installed on my hard drive. Apparently it likes Windows 7 better than Vista.

Now I just need a headset mic. I barely played the start of the game just to make sure it wouldn't crap out again and I can say without a doubt it is fucking terrible. I'll elaborate more on this if I can get things started.

L Ron Howard

So sorry for the psuedo necro, but uh, I really want to see this Let's Play.
Any word, josh or Figgy, of when we might get it?

joshofalltrades

Oh man, haha. Well I've actually been specifically asked not to do this. Anyway, Super Meat Boy is definitely coming before anything else right now.

Turkey

I hate Steam for including this game in a bundle I was otherwise interested in.

L Ron Howard

I don't know if that news makes me happy or sad (the Path Let's Play thing, of course; not the SMB LP).

cj iwakura

I was also waiting for this.

joshofalltrades

The consensus seemed to be "you can't make this anything but horrible, don't do it"

cj iwakura

Screenshot format. Text commentary. A video of this...yeah, no.

Rehab

You should do it because it can't be anything but horrible.

The interest does not lie in this game being good sir! It has to do with cloud monsters raping little girls and grandma being a twisted senile old bitch.

L Ron Howard

A video sped up 2 or 3x with commentary, slowing down for the important parts would be great, I think.
Alternatively, you could play 10 minutes legit, swear a ton like you do in your other LPs, and then speed the the fuck through to the important stuff.
