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 by Starker

I approve.

Hey, I just backed you,

and this is crazy,

but here's my money,

so stretch goal maybe?

RPGs should be done in screenshot LP form.

Endurance run go!

It should be played via a live steam and viewers get to dictate the playstyle.

Please, please live stream this so we can all enjoy the awesome that is Arcanum being played by Chris

I'm sure he'll end up with the goat.

« Celui qui est consumé par la flamme de la justice ne craint ni le ciel, ni l’enfer ; il n’est qu’une arme attendant le jour de sa mort ». (Paul Murphy, l'Enclave, 1971)

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! :biggrin:

He should post LPs on youtube. Half the people here can't be up or on the forums at the hours they are streaming.

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.

I took the liberty of fixing that for you. :>

the deal on ama was that he is to play it drunk and stream it... i hope they stick to it!

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.

Many thanks ;-D

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.

Remembering tarna, Phosphor, Metadigital, and Visceris.  Drink mead heartily in the halls of Valhalla, my friends!

I would love to see him do this LoL. Post it on youtube so I can see it later. Play on hardest! :D

Does MCA not like Arcanum or just never got around to playing it?

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".

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.

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 !

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.

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. ;)
