Liam Allen-Miller please make sure Woolie gets the flowers for 6O in route A.
Didn't do it! Honestly we're midway through the next portion of the game and we're about to start getting to the really good sidequests. I spoke with Woolie beforehand about sidequests and we mutually decided to skip fluff sidequests since we'd be there all day. I think the only fluff ones planned are Game Dev Machine and Father Servo, off the top of my head. Important ones like Emil's two and the one you get Wire from are totally coming up.

I just want to know if Liam Allen-Miller and Matt will be streaming Travis Strikes again.
I wanna' say we'll probably record an LP of it rather than stream it, but yes! Captain Spirit next week as well.

No worries. We kind of decided it wasn't going to be possible to do 100% so rather than dawdle with sidequests that are potentially less interesting we just opted to cut a ton. I also don't really perfectly remember everything about the game, which has been tricky at times and we still wound up doing some junky sidequests occasionally.

Any chance you lead him towards Emil's cave? Seems like most people miss that on their first playthrough.

Me too, thanks for the Nier playthroughs! A good sign that you love a game is when you get excited to see someone else play it for the first time.

Funny because after Okami HD I can totally see a God Hand or Viewtiful Joe HD happening next year.

it could of been the God Hand + RE6 - Red Hot Rumble experience

I hope the guys give RE6 another chance. Game is actually legit and the newer version fixes a lot of the bad aspects.

That's me watched RE Zero, RE2, RE3 and halfway through RE4. Gonna add Liam and Matts RE4 LP in because it's soooooo good.

These dudes need to do CVX, 5, Revelations 1 and 6 before the channel dies.

Just started the God Hand LP and I feel like I have to disagree with Pat on the game looking bad for the time (it didn't come out in 2008 lol). It's not as visually striking as Okami but it didn't look bad for the PS2. There's literally no good reason for IGN giving it a 3.0/10

Anyway, God Hand 2 co-developed by Shinji Mikami and Cyber Connect when?

I would say character models were fine for the time but yeah, everything else not so much. Then you have stuff like the crazy camera clipping every time Gene gets close to a wall to complete the package.

I would be really curious to see proper budget numbers for this game.

I even thought this was a 2003 game. Was shocked to hear it's 2008. I could swear it was older than that.

But hey, dat combat gonna be entertaining

Fuck, God Hand is so good and this lp really making me want to play it again but that is game HARD. They were not exaggerating when they said you need to actually focus on the game while playing.

Does anyone know which video they are referencing for the analysis the God Hand combat systems? They mentioned it, I'd say midway through but I tried searching on YouTube and not sure what video to find.

The description:
System demo - a response to the inaccurate review IGN gave Godhand. I'm hoping to show that the game's camera is perfect for the fighting system, the way Jean is always in clear view and the way it auto-locks to the exact point you always need it to while on the offense or defense I feel is a superb achievement.

I've purposely boosted the game's level to Level-Die to show that even with the initial setup you get at the start of the game, you can cause some real mess and have great fun with the creativity this system allows you to put into your fighting.

I didnt collect any of the health pickups inside the boxes on the stage on my way to the end. My energy is critical but upon collection of the ignored items I start the next stage healthy.

If a stupid pothead with barely enough time spent enjoying this game like me can do it on Level-Die, I have no idea what is wrong with certain people who's job it is to inform the gaming public.

I'm only just getting around to watching the latest Detroit episode.

Oh goodness gracious, a few episodes from now will be so much fun...

That full-cast session into double tech into session reset in TMS was sick. Now I see why the early advice Woolie received was saying that TMS rewards offense.

Boy, did they censor Oribe's wedding dress outfit for the US release.

That said, I can't fault them for going "Mmm, maybe we shouldn't have a high school girl wear something that looks like it's out of a porn parody."

The problem with this kind of censorship is that is really dosen't fix the problem. It just looks like she rolled around in baby powder before putting her dress on. It would have been better if they went back and had another dress model that was less lewd they could swap in.

This. I don't have a problem with the idea of having her show less skin, but it was done in literally the laziest way possible. "Just turn all the skin that isn't her face white! No one will know!"

I totally agree, but I get the feeling that once Nintendo saw what they got, they decided they were going to spend as little money as possible on the localization to minimize their losses. And I don't blame them - TMS certainly isn't the first thing that comes to mind when you think of a Fire Emblem/SMT crossover.

They tried to protect the kids from Tsubasa's wedding dress and ended up introducing the kids to the world of skin bleaching.

It's weird that they were willing to alter stuff in TMS but not in Xenoblade 2, which is FAR more egregious imo. It's not like TMS ever had a shot at mass market appeal considering it was one of the last games to come out for the Wii Fucking U.

XB2 probably had too much for their photoshop color editing tools to work with
