I know how it works and you're talking about an entirely different exercise than what I'm talking about. Also, I can count the number of people who would want to be involved with WCIII on half of one hand. And even then, they'd want to play DOTA. But DOTA isn't a game. It's a mod. And the only mod I'm going to contemplate is FFH2.

We'll do DOTA when Champion of Champions or whatever comes out. Or Demigod. Whichever is first.

I'd so do a FFH LP, but I voted for Vampire. 

So how's it work if you die/ lose? End the LP right there or just mention it, reload and continue on?

Hardcore mode is better for things like Titan Quest, Stone Soup and Diablo. And since it's diaries (AND NOT LP), it doesn't really matter what you do. Would be up to each person.

Fortunately for me, I have never read a LP.  I'm on board with the Stone Soup thing, and any other game in which you can die horribly.

Why am I homeless?  Why do all you motherfuckers need homes is the real question.

Hey, it's a great game that I haven't revisited in a long time.  Upon looking at the unofficial patch notes it also looks like a lot of stuff has been added to it.  Now I'm stuck in the quandry where apparently the unofficial patch fixes the problem where if you have more than 3 gigs of RAM the game reports that you only have 15 meg and won't launch.  Apparently the unofficial patch fixes this, but in order to install the unofficial patch for the Steam version of the game you have to have launched it once.  So I'm basically stuck in a chicken/egg scenario.

My quandary with VtM is that I am mid-game.  I could start over, though.

Any game that includes "Can I smell your hair?" as a pickup line gets my seal of approval.  why so serious?

Mid-game being the interminably long sewer part of the game?  Yeah, that's when I turn on God mode and just blow through that section of it.

That section has never been hard after the first time I tried it.  Hell, you can sneak through most of it even with really crappy sneaking.

Fun game, I would definitely be down for a new run.  Perhaps a return to a Malk.  They are always fun.

Not hard, annoying.  You had a perfectly serviceable action RPG going and then they stuck in a half-assed shooter into the middle of the game, and it goes on FOREVER.  It's the glaring flaw of the game, and I see no reason not to blow through it as quickly as possible.

Noclip is faster.  I did the same thing my last four times through or so.  It's the one part of the game that plays absolutely the same (and is absolutely boring) no matter how your character's built.

I am not sure.  Playing one of those ugly-ass mofos, so it's all sewers, all the time.

PS runs for shit in Vista64. It's a mess. I finally got it working but it wrecks havok on anyone with dual monitors. Also, colordepth lol. Diablo 2 is the same problem but it plays a bit nicer.

Also, we're not doing Let's Plays. I'm removing that from the goddamn thread now.

Diablo 2, to me, seems highly likely to just turn into an endless series 'I got this and this and this to drop'.

It makes for great gameplay, but I am guessing it won't make for great literature.

For Hardcore mode, it would be more like "I got this far before dying".

Definitely VTM. The Fun Factor just dropped like a rock at that stage. I was playing a Blood mage Tremere and would have to stop to drink rat's blood after 2-3 encounters cause I never invested on firearms.

I think I actually turned on no clip and just flew through the floors after the first few levels.
