Starker Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 (edited) How does it feel having been paid over 4 million to play a video game? Also, more importantly, this must be recorded -- Let's Play Arcanum with Chris Avellone! Edited October 17, 2012 by Starker 18
Veeno Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 I approve. Hey, I just backed you, and this is crazy, but here's my money, so stretch goal maybe?
Tamerlane Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 RPGs should be done in screenshot LP form. smugface.png
Kilroy_Was_Here Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 It should be played via a live steam and viewers get to dictate the playstyle. 1
Kallisar Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 (edited) Please, please live stream this so we can all enjoy the awesome that is Arcanum being played by Chris Edited October 17, 2012 by Kallisar 1

TheLurkingWriter Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 I'm hoping it makes it onto the Making Of documentary somehow, or becomes an add-on in its own right later on down the line. Also: at least two distinct playthroughs, one of which should be sober. Congrats, everyone!

kenup Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 (edited) He should post LPs on youtube. Half the people here can't be up or on the forums at the hours they are streaming. Edited October 17, 2012 by kenup 1
Leferd Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 My hope is that Avellone will be inspired by some of the more inane options during the character creation process and just totally run with it. 1 "Things are funny...are comedic, because they mix the real with the absurd." - Buzz Aldrin."P-O-T-A-T-O-E" - Dan Quayle

chisled2bone Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 the deal on ama was that he is to play it drunk and stream it... i hope they stick to it! 1
Death Machine Miyagi Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 I second the notion of a 'Let's Play' on YouTube. It'd be fun to watch streaming and all, but not so fun that I would be willing to set aside that much time watching someone play on their own schedule without the ability to pause and come back where I left them. Álrêrst lébe ich mir werde, sît mîn sündic ouge siht daz here lant und ouch die erde, der man sô vil êren giht. ez ist geschehen, des ich ie bat: ích bin komen an die stat, dâ got menischlîchen trat.

Cantousent Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 I absolutely lurved playing Arcanum. Yeah, it was disconcerting on my first run when my mage found some 'filament' sword or some such and beat the crap out of everything I met with it afterwards, but it was a great game, warts and all. Not as good as New Vegas, but great nonetheless.

Valinthor Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 I would love to see him do this LoL. Post it on youtube so I can see it later. Play on hardest! :D
Azure79 Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Does MCA not like Arcanum or just never got around to playing it?
DocDoomII Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 MCA! We want to see you playing in streaming like Adam did with ICW II!! Do you think Pillars of Eternity doesn't have enough Portraits? Submit your vote in this Poll!
Veeno Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 MCA! We want to see you playing in streaming like Adam did with ICW II!! On a completely unrelated note, due to sleep deprivation, I don't think I will ever stop reading your name as "DocDoomil". 2 Hey, I just backed you, and this is crazy, but here's my money, so stretch goal maybe?

Veeno Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 I just call him Double Ds! We should give him a green shirt! 5 Hey, I just backed you, and this is crazy, but here's my money, so stretch goal maybe?
Swells Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 I'm not sure if I'm more suprised about my tea getting cold in 3 minutes or somebody having to be paid to play Arcanum. If it goes anything like my first run with it; 3 hours in character creation. 4
Theobeau Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Someone else asked this question as well, is it established why MCA dislikes Arcanum and what are the reasons? I wonder whether they relate to the design of the game or to the proto steampunk setting; (way, way before it become popular) ? - Project Eternity, Wasteland 2 and Torment: Tides of Numenera; quality cRPGs are back !
Krios Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Seeing that they put it up as a stretch goal, I will expect the playthrough to be accessible by everyone, for the sake of accountability, among other reasons. And I also expect the session to last more than 5 mins. - this point is on faith, I trust Chris will give his backers their money's worth. I suggest YouTube for the streaming, and please include it in the documentary for us to enjoy forever.
Farudan Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 (edited) Someone else asked this question as well, is it established why MCA dislikes Arcanum and what are the reasons? Don't know if it was a matter auf dislike. All that I know of is, that he didn't play it up to know. Could be simple time management, that interfered with it. As I posted yesterday on Kickstarter, proof or it didn't happen. YouTube Let's Play, that's minimum I'd say. Edited October 17, 2012 by Farudan 1 The Order wants YOU!
