    If someone could channel Josh's rage into some sort of energy, I'm fairly certain the universe would have ended horribly during that last set.
    Well done. :^:

    Wow. Now whenever I get pissed off at call of duty or whatever I'll just watch the bit where Josh screams out in primal rage. I know the feeling!

    I ordinarily don't get that pissed while playing video games. I normally suppress that anger. When doing a difficult LP, though, the best thing is to just let it all out, I feel.

    Some people blow off steam by hitting people. So I'm not that bad?

    Oh, I wasn't criticizing you. I was simply impressed by the fact that you could be that enraged and still keep playing/ make a damn good LP in the process.

    Josh, you're the best. Do you know why? Because you can create some of the most outlandish and creative curses I've heard. I'd never even THINK of a douche bag drinker, but here you are, telling off spikes with it! Bravo, sir. You are a gentleman, and a scholar.

    Glad this wasn't the last part. :D So much more pain to watch. :D

    Actually, not that much, really. Probably just one more gameplay video and maybe one bonus video, if I get around to doing it. This LP is pretty much done, and would officially be complete if I wasn't definitely planning on going back to get the shinies I missed.

    Not sure, actually. I got some pretty positive feedback from this thread, but it seems to be from about a dozen people. LPs are a lot of work to entertain a dozen people.

    Ha, the Tower is the bit the Giant Bomb guys did during their Quicklook and it effed them up. I was wondering why it seemed so familar to me.

    Also, is the video slow for anyone else?

    I know, but it makes me feel insecure about them when I see a high unique view count on my videos and low post count in the thread. But yeah, I guess not everybody can continually comment on every LP.

    Speaking of which, this LP is up to 1300 unique views. I know for a fact people who aren't from PA are watching them. So that is kind of encouraging, anyway.

    I've always kind of wanted to do a LP of an adventure game. Maybe even a really difficult adventure game. Man that would be time-consuming though. Police Quest would be a biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitch and a half.

    It's apparently when you're sandwiched between Wilford Brimley and Steve Buscemi, because those are the first two disgusting celebrities that came to mind when my brain was in filthy mode due to the high difficulty this game was presenting me with.

    Yeah but Police Quest would kill you if you didn't walk around and check every tire before you started the car. Every single time you drove anywhere. The game was picky as fuck about procedures.

    My brother and I watch your videos and enjoy them alot. I'm not much of a slashfic writer I suppose.

    Your creativity in expressing frustration is very amusing!

    But we also like watching when you're happy, so don't unnecessarily torture youreself or anything, on our part at least.

    I vote space quest. I've come across it before, and it looks pretty cool. I'd watch it.

    Edit: Also, I really wish that these musicians for this game would team up with the Homestuck artists to produce music. The results would be glorious. The music in this game was bloody fantastic.

    Edit2: although Kings quest sounds cool as well.

    Wow, thanks guys. Glad to see so many of you liked it!

    I have no idea how difficult the 4 remaining shinies are to acquire, so this last video I'm planning could go either way. Also, a big reason I wait to do these LPs is because I'd rather not expose my wife and kids to the atomic rage I release when doing them. I lucked out and was alone for a weekend this time, so I got 4 out of the 5 parts done while they were gone.
