Dans on fire in Detroit.
"Wait is this 1994?"
"No it said 2038"
"Wha..."
"So the androids, see this is what I don't understand, did they program them to have feeling?"
"I don't know why don't you ask Guillem DeFangamere, whatever that guys name was"
"It's David Cage.."
"It's Ka-ge. David Ka-ge."

So they just skipped right to the hostage situation. Didn't even gather any information. Haha. At least everyone I've watched play this so far has done it a bit different. Didn't even pick up the poor fish.
Hope they continue. Then I'll have four people playing it in my Subscriptions. All with different opinions and play styles. (SBF, Jesse Cox, ProJared. If the Beard Bros play it then I'll be complete.)

I know he did. Sometimes he does episodes when he's planning on completing it on video. If anything they might do a stream. Or nothing at all. I haven't watched his video yet though. Does it have any spoilers? I'm waiting for the SBF to finish the game first.
It seems like they are thriving under the GG umbrella.
I'm not sure if it's too spoilery. He doesn't go into the end-game stuff too much, but with a story heavy game like that a lot could be spoilers.
Also he did say that getting everything kinda burned him out doing it in a week. That's why I don't think he's gonna do it on Beard Bros.
Probably wouldn't make much sense anyway since you can't really "complete" it in one run I assume. Since there's many branching paths that have different outcomes. Question: When you play a second time does it remember and mark off what path you took the previous playthroughs? How do you exactly "complete" it?
There's a flowchart that keeps track of what you've done. They showed it on the Grumps episode today. Jirard said there were like 55 possible endings.
No I mean does it keep track across game attempts? If you complete the game then start a new one does the flowchart for each subsequent game show you what you did in previous playthroughs? Or are you supposed to just remember what you did and didn't do before?
It'll keep track of it. What you did in a current playthrough will be highlighted, but it will show you the other scenarios.
Watching them play Wizard of Legend convinced me to buy it. Game looks fun.
I'm also playing a game called Icey on Switch that I think might be fun for them to play. It starts off as a pretty standard 2D hack and slash, but it has some fun extras if you choose not to follow directions. And we all know how good Arin is at following directions.

I love that they're deconstructing Detroit

god that's exactly what happened
watching Arin play and it's like 'ARIN SAVE THE ROBOT INTERVENE WHAT ARE YOU DOING' and Dan is like 'Dude, step in' and Arin is like 'AAHHHHH'

tbf I would've given up at that point too, but it was hilarious that THAT POINT was the part where ol' dude had to go nuclear lol
Yeah lol, I honestly thought he was going to blow up but grabbing the gun was like..wow.
Man, I hope they play through it. They seem so into it, and it's always fun to see them react to the things happening.
Yeah, I was like "Why would you give up now??" I wouldn't have intervened and then given up; that kind of half-measure at that moment seems like it could only have led to something bad, lol.
But every scene with that deviant I was distracted because I kept thinking about his character on Scandal lmao

Detroit is actually a great game for this sort of playthrough. It is dynamic for both those who have played it and those who haven't, and the branching paths leave room for viewers to still have fun even after watching this.

I love how flustered Arin gets in these types of games, so its hilarious to watch him miss things or mess up.
the playthrough is pretty dang fantastic. Seeing dan get super into it is alotta fun, heck seeing both of them be invested into it is pretty dang great. Alotta times they just talk about random things, but Detroit is one of the playthroughs where they pay attention to whats happening.
aw man(detroit small spoilers)
they didn't get the chase sequence, but man that flowchart at the end! holy shit!
Detroit playthroughs are this years Undertale for me. Everyone plays differently so it's fun to watch multiple people at once. Best Friends are really thorough and accepting of their choices, Jesse Cox is very curious and thinks things through and ProJared is having a lot of fun even though its not his biggest money maker series. And then there's Arin. lol
Each one is different and I love it.
For instance, the Best Friends went up to the roof before talking to the Androids in the kitchen at the TV station only to find they ended it with the chase and death of the Jericho member they left behind and got sad, contemplating restarting before deciding to live with their choices, whereas Jared went into the kitchen and didn't touch the roof. Each one gave a different ending to the scene. As it turns out that's how it goes.
Though in Jared's playthrough, he didn't leave anyone behind and all four escape because he shot the human. Best Friends left the one guy behind for Connor to find but didn't shoot the human.
Edit: Oh.. Oh.. this Power Hour is amazing so far, and it just started. Kmart.

I'm really enjoying the Detroit playthrough. I bought the game, but I got to the end of Kara's first chapter and was just like, "Man, I don't actually want to play a depressing game." I platinumed Heavy Rain, which involved getting all the endings, and I got most of the bad endings in one stretch one day while I was home sick. And after watching that much death and misery in one day, I was pretty messed up.
They switch off all the time. They usually film 7 episodes or so at a time. Also Arin went to Japan so they probably had Gal Gun saved up for when he left to replace Dark Souls.

Honestly I would recommend watching/playing it. Quality of the game's writing notwithstanding, there's enough choices that you'll get your own experience of the game that won't be the same as GG's...unless you're copy/pasting their exact routes of course.
I'll probably get it later. Hopefully by then I'll probably forgot what happened in the Grumps playthrough.
Also, looks like they have an episode of Radical Heights up right now.
I'm loving that he's playing it differently from everyone else. If you want a good play through there are other choices. I mentioned them above.
Yeah, I was thinking maybe it's that. Just got a bit worried. It also seems they filmed a lot of episodes of different games while they were jetlagged lol
Yeah, I might end up watching it depending on whether I can get Detroit sooner rather than later.
Anyway, Radical Heights seems like it could be a fun watch. I love Arin tweeting out telling people to get on and then he gets some people replying "what is that?" XD
the detroit playthrough is too enjoyable, I hope they go through it all. It seems to be pretty popular thankfully?
I like the episodes but Iget frustrated when he gets stuck. The game teaches you in the intro to scan when you enter a new space for points of interest but since they skipped most of the intro they missed that and rarely do this.
Yeah, I knew what I was in for the moment they skipped saving the fish. And then ignored the tutorial message to make jokes.
But I'm not watching theirs for completion. That's why I watch the Best Friends, Jesse Cox and ProJared.
