Blood Will Tell is a PlayStation 2 game released by Sega. It is based on the Japanese manga series Dororo created by Osamu Tezuka. It concerns a hero named Hyakkimaru, who has had much of his body stolen by 48 fiends, and has prosthetics to replace these missing body parts. Along with his ally, the thief Dororo, Hyakkimaru must defeat all 48 Fiends.
Anyway, I've never done any LPs before, but I really enjoy watching them so I figured I would attempt to make my own. Hopefully someone will be entertained.

Hey, you can watch me play it! I've never played it before though, so I'll probably mess up a bit..
I hope the videos don't disappoint! I bought it real cheap because I heard someone talk about it once and I'm definitely pleasantly surprised with it.
dream a little dream or you could live a little dream
sleep forever if you wish to be a dreamer
Shucks, thanks fella! It's really awkward/embarassing hearing myself talk, so it's hard for me to not have a biased opinion against myself, heh.
Can't you tell when somebody is hitting on you? :winky:
The fiends stole that ability from me. I have no heart!
nah, but seriously, some people should not do LPs. I think you could perhaps work on the humour content, but this is your first time, and you definitely have a good voice. I know how it feels with hearing yourself, just gotta get over it. Also, confidence will make it sound even better.
mm, say my name again
dream a little dream or you could live a little dream
sleep forever if you wish to be a dreamer
dream a little dream or you could live a little dream

MOAR VIDEOS!:x
Hope you guys enjoy!
Ep9: Rock'n'Roll
Are any of you folks still watching these or should I stop posting about 'em?
edit: HQ is up now
For me, that's always hilarious.
dream a little dream or you could live a little dream
sleep forever if you wish to be a dreamer
Sorry about that! I hadn't even noticed; it's fixed now.
I'm trying to find out how to get more people to check it out so I can get more feedback on it, but based off of you guys I'm doing a pretty good job, so I can't complain too much! I just feel bad bumping my thread everyday with updates so I ended up with a triple post.. :oops:
One thing that kept popping up in my head while I watched - are you pretty familiar with this game, or do you keep going ahead before you film? Part of the fun of LPs (at least some of them, but especially on games that seem as easy as this one) is seeing you encounter things for the first time and hearing your reactions. If you already know the game well, then this doesn't really pertain, but you mentioned in one of them that you had gone a bit ahead to check things out.
dream a little dream or you could live a little dream
sleep forever if you wish to be a dreamer
I've played about 20 minutes ahead of where I'm at in the LPs, I figured it would be a good idea to find the layout of what's going to happen, but I probably shouldn't since it probably makes it more interesting that way.
Also, if anyone wants to draw me a better signature, I will love you
dream a little dream or you could live a little dream
sleep forever if you wish to be a dreamer
I'm really not sure myself, that's why I kept switching, it was just whichever came to mind.. I think it's supposed to be a girl? Maybe..
dream a little dream or you could live a little dream
sleep forever if you wish to be a dreamer
I bet Dororo is actually a girl and by the end of the journey she's an adult and then Hyakkimaru becomes a real human and they live happily ever after. The End.
Hrm, I was going to make a better point than that, but it's slipped my mind.
Anyways, suffice to say, I'd say you're on the right track, you just need to work at it a little more, obviously since it's your first one. I know I'll be watching to see how it comes along. :^:
Should I try explaining what's going on in the game more often? I definitely feel a lot more confident in talking when I make the videos now, but it's probably something I still need to work on.
Thanks for the advice! If anything comes up in my videos that you point out as an example of stuff to do right/wrong, please do let me know.
Here we go, found it in the manual:
ATK: Strength of arm blades and sword.
END: Defense level.
SPD: Faster attacks and increases combo options.
REG (Regeneration): Increased recovery level (quicker recovery when knocked down and ability to stock more Jyukai's Medicine[pearls])
STB (Stability): Consistency in Hyakki's overall performance (what.. ?)
MET (Metabolism): Improve's Hyakkimaru's ability to heal (more healed per rice ball)
LCK: Probability of earning valuable items
HP: We all know this one.
dream a little dream or you could live a little dream
sleep forever if you wish to be a dreamer
I'm curious as to why riceballs heal me when I can't even eat them yet.. it doesn't make much sense
Should I keep trying for 2 updates a day or more/less?
HQ's available now.
I think explaining things a little more often would be a good thing, yeah. In the latest update, the bit with the smoke bomb was good because you did that, I think.
Really, my understanding of a Let's Play, is that it's a group dealing. 'Everybody', i.e. the audience, has to be involved in someway, so in a linear game like this looks, the best way to substitute mob decisions would be for it to be an informative thing, rather than "Hey, watch me play this game." I'm not saying that's what the LP has been so far, of course, but I'm just saying that that's my suggestion.
If that makes sense. I might've lost my point somewhere.
Hey, no worries! I really appreciate any feedback, so I'll try to work a bit more of that sort of stuff into it. Although I'm basically going in blind now, so I've no idea what lies ahead in the bamboo thicket with the green goo trail..
That part is kind of an example of what I was talking about, though. Part of the fun of LPs is watching the player try and figure out sections, especially if they're frustrated or just trying random things out. I mean, yeah, no one wants to watch a lot of extra footage that isn't showing much, but times like those offer a lot of chances for interesting banter, whether it's you bemoaning the bad directions or going off on a different tangent while you try and figure it out.
Also, you totally missed out on some easy "tentacle in her bedroom" digs :P Maybe that's too easy, though...
dream a little dream or you could live a little dream
sleep forever if you wish to be a dreamer
A little bit, and my 10 year old brother was in here, haha.. I also get too focused on the game and forget how to be funny.
I try to keep it mostly family friendly in case that little lad does watch my videos. :oops:
