Regarding Chuggaa, he actually seems unenthusiastic, like he doesn't really want to do LP's anymore. Hence why he might not seem so funny anymore.

Well, I mean, he's probably busy. And on a side note, he's been doing this for YEARS now. Maybe he's getting a bit tired out. Either way, I hope Emerald has some good jokes in store.

He does seem somewhat more enthusiastic on twitter. Also, I'm hoping all of his Pokemon, (or at least his starter) is shiny.
 
Re: Do you watch Let's Plays?

Personally, I find the sarcasm pretty funny. Though his yelling seems mostly forced at this point and isn't really that effective anymore...

That's what I tried to say, it's like his forcing all his laughter and yelling and not actually being himself.

I bet he's gonna pick Torchic as his starter.

FireRed=Bulbasaur
Crystal=Totodile

Fire is the only starter he hasn't picked.

Yep, I was right. *pats self on back*
 
Re: Do you watch Let's Plays?

Say Crackin have you ever heard of Pokecapn? I don't know if you're a Sonic fan (Most of his LPs are recent Sonic games) but he has other people commentate on the game with him and occasionally lets some of the others play it. Even if you're not a Sonic fan they have some Mario Party videos (One board from each game from Mario Parties 1-8) where 4 players play against eachother (Might be interesting to for once see a Let's Play for Mario Party where all 4 of the players are controlled by someone instead of all 3 or 1 of them being a CPU). Though besides Sonic Shuffle I haven't seen a full run through any of their Sonic LPs. I tried to watch Sonic 06 but they don't cut out when they die and have to often wait for them to get back into the place where they were only to lose all their lives yet again.
 
Re: Do you watch Let's Plays?

Well since we're recommending people....

Have any of you guys ever heard of ClementJ642? I found out about him because he finished both the Mega Man Classic series and the Mega Man X series in their entirety. He's now working on every Sonic game in existence, so I'm sure some of you might like him. If you liked Mega Man X6 or Donkey Kong Country 3, avoid those 2 LPs.
 
Re: Do you watch Let's Plays?

I've actually recently unsubscribed from Clement.

Have you guys heard of gameguy888? He does let's plays and streams of Nintendo and Ratchet & Clank games. He's currently streaming all the games he's LP'ed in 2011 on the weekends. He's also does something called "Let's Challenge Game Guy", where people send in challenges like: Complete World 8 with 1 life and no power-ups (NSMBW). There's also "Game Guy Challenges You", where he challenges the viewers, and if he gets 10 video responses, the audience wins (There's a scoreboard for the Challenge series).

Sounds good, I'll check out his channel :)

Also, on another note, Chuggaa's Emerald LP is actually good. He isn't really doing his overreacting laughs and stupid jokes as much, it's more like a guide and I like that.

I'll check his channel soon too

And while I'm at it, I might as well check out game guy.

And now, my recommendation.

I've said his name here tons, SSoHPKC has 6000 Videos so far I think. He does mostly any type of game but he plays Minecraft with the rest of the creatures (Kootra, Nova, Gassy, Ze, Sly, Dan & Sp00n) and they do OmgPop stuff too. Most of his videos consist of shooters which I normally wouldn't be a fan off but when he plays them with his friends it's just a shit ton of funny. Also he's very sarcastic.
 
Re: Do you watch Let's Plays?

So Chuggaa caught a Lotad in Emerald. Wasn't really expecting that. I love his comments about how his parents "abuse" him and his jelly raeg at Wally.

Also, Roahmmythril has is doing Megaman Battle Network 3. Yippie.
 
Re: Do you watch Let's Plays?

Well, TRG are finished with Brawl's Subspace Emissiary. But they'll still have some extra videos.

As for Chuggaa's Emerald LP, I hope he uses an electric-type this time. IMO, that was his biggest mistake in FireRed and Crystal especially when fighting Lorreli and Pryce.
 
Re: Do you watch Let's Plays?

I hope the do something good for the next TRG videos. Mario Party videos are the only ones where I actually enjoyed.

And Chuggaa's LP isn't interesting me. Im waiting for JoshJepson to put more videos out.
 
Re: Do you watch Let's Plays?

It doesn't really matter to me what they do next, but NCS really needs to work on his skills.

I think it's just playing in a group that screws him up, since he does a lot better in his individual LPs.
 
Re: Do you watch Let's Plays?

I don't mean to sound like a jerk. But Crackin, you don't have to mention anymore about Chuggaaconroy if you generally don't like his videos.

I now check JoshJepson, Lucahjin, and plenty more. Thanks to the Battletoads 4-player race on Proton Jon's channel I might consider seeing more of Pcull44444 (Or if you saw a certain recent Lucahjin video... Pcullhorsehorsehorsehorsehorse) and Superjeenius
 
Re: Do you watch Let's Plays?

I'm considering watching a few more episodes of Josh's Sunshine LP and finishing SKArmedageddon's Super Paper Mario LP.

You may have a good point there, I vaugley remember a comments for one of the videos defending NCS's skills and says he's dominating in his Donkey Kong LP. Plus, I've seen a few episodes of NCS's Super Mario 64 LP and only real mistake I've noticed is him wasting his time trying to get a star in Jolly Roger Bay.
 
Re: Do you watch Let's Plays?

I've been watching Pokecapn and I think he is funny especially in his Sonic 06 LP.

You should, PCULL's one of my favourites.
 
Re: Do you watch Let's Plays?

Chuggaa caught a Swablu today, which is rather odd because if you guys flashback to Pokemon Crystal, "There's not such thing as a bad dragon type, well, maybe Altaria"...
 
Re: Do you watch Let's Plays?

I watch Let's Plays. I don't watch these loud, obnoxious Let's Players; I prefer to watch the Let's Player BikdipOnABus. He is the most unenthusiastic Let's Player that you're ever going to watch, and I absolutely love his dry humour and voice, and his sarcastic remarks. He also tries to make every Let's Play interesting gameplay-wise, too. A really good example of this would be his Coinless Super Mario Sunshine run, which is a must-watch according to me.
 
Re: Do you watch Let's Plays?

I'm late to this, but...

It honestly felt like Chuggaaconroy half-assed Pikmin 2 at the end.

I mean, he sped up about 4 dungeons in the end, which is practically the main part of the game. Then he goes and speeds up the final boss fight, which made it anti-climatic (although it's pretty much one of the longer boss fights in a game).

And I disagree with him when he says the original Pikmin is better. The original has got nothing on the sequel, imho.
 
Re: Do you watch Let's Plays?

After he paid off the debt, I kinda just watched every other video. I just got bored of the fact that he spent multiple episodes in the same dungeon. In fact, the only memorable moment I can remember from Pikmin 2 was his reaction to the Waterwraith. And the fact he never mentioned Steve didn't help.

Also, Therunawayguys might be done with Super Smash Bros. They unlocked the three remaining characters. They might still have one more Brawl video though. The description says "And thus concludes another chapter in The Runaway Guys!...Or does it!?" Plus, they still haven't recused Ike from Subspace.

I have a feeling they'll probably do something like they did for the original SSB. Have a little fight against eachother. I'm sure after that ending. John's going to want to put all his frustration from the Subspace mode on Chuggaa AND NCS xD
 
Re: Do you watch Let's Plays?

I'm not gonna get my hopes up, but I hope Jon chooses Ike and unleashes Great Aether above a bottomless pit.

And this is probably asking for too much, but I hope they make a video explaing the hazards and layout of each stage and maybe the movesets for each character. Again, I know that's kind of demanding, but it'd be nice.

Yeah I think if they were going to do that. They'd put up some info thing on each character as we see all of them in Subspace. Sort of how in the Pokemon games, Chugga gives a profile for each Pokemon. But I think that the majority of people who watch TheRunawayGuys already have Brawl anyway and just want to watch famous Let's Players go through the game like they did. And thus kinda already know the strengths and weaknesses of each character. Chuggaa does sometimes explain a few things on some of the fighters. when we first see them in the LP but I don't think he exactly gets everyone.
