raocow's talkhaus

I suggested that a year ago, along with another Syobon Action-esque game.

Can I start suggesting "I Wanna Be the..." fangames again now?

(Despite the Kappa, it's kind of a serious question. )

Maybe you can try princess cliche for the next super mario thing?

the next mario thing is gonna be maglx2 which is gonna take all summer or something, followed by smw aspe unless anyone else pipes up about how I shouldn't do it, and eventually I want to do the vip2 translation, so, ah, eventually!!

Jamestown is pretty good. Neat little arcade-style top down shooter. I wish I had remembered earlier.

Isn't Jamestown a bullet hell though? If he isn't gonna play a touhou bullet hell, I doublt he'll play another bullet hell.

It is and if I recall correctly the later levels are difficulty dependent with the final level only being available on the highest difficulty too.

Maybe you should do a non-SMBX project in between the current MAGKL and MAGLX2 to avoid viewers getting sick and tired of SMBX?

That's a dangerous proposition, if he actually does it you'll have an angry mob complete with pitchforks and torches marching to your doorstep within the hour. I can personally guarantee it.
(In all seriousness if peeps are gonna get tired of SMBX the nine days or so of MaGKL X won't be what pushes it over the edge, it'll be the four months or so of MaGL X2 that fires it over the edge out of a cannon. If it's happening at all here there's no avoiding it anyway, why delay the thing with all the hype in the world behind it any more than necessary in a futile effort to do so.)

Isn't MaGKL the first SMBX thing he's done in awhile? Like Zyglrox said, if people managed to get sick of it this quickly there's no way in hell they wouldn't get sick of it with MaGLx2 no matter how long he waited.

Edit: Yup, just checked. Last SMBX thing was April 6th.

Meh, I don't mind either way. Just thought it needed discussing. On second thoughts, there's no way round, is there? Unless raocow does a B side of really small projects to liven up the variety.

People said it's divided in 2 episodes..
Maybe raocow should play one of them episodes then something small non SMBXy in between (maybe something that lasts a week or 2) and then the second episode?
I think that would be kinda ok

Having to wait two weeks for the second episode would be kind of a cliffhanger.
raocow does have two LPs going on simultaneously nowadays, so there should be something to keep things varied.

There might also need to be another small project before Maglx2 anyways, depending on how fast we can get the things to work properly.

Decided to crunch the numbers for fun:

According to raocow.com/series, the he's LPd 4 SMBX episodes in the past year (June 26, 2014 - June 26, 2015): A2XTEp1 (54 episodes) (Superb Demo Sisters (8 episodes), Super Mario Japan (47 episodes), and MaGKLX (currently 6 episodes) for 115 episodes.

In that same timeframe, he's done 4 SMW hacks: Something Else (34 episodes), Vanilla Contest 2014 (32 episodes) SMW Remix (7 episodes), and VLDC8 (43 videos), as well as a one-off A2MT video for 117 episodes.

So, it's been about even.

yeah but smw is objectively better in every way

Princess Cliché would be a good 'short LP', being only 2 1/2 worlds. Maybe 4 videos long.

princess cliche is also rather unremarkable tho

i mean back in the day I loved it, but that was when there wasnt really any interesting things made in smbx.

Yeah, but still a viable 'inbetween' LP.

play soldexus

So I'm somewhat confused.

The next upcoming Patreon voted game was, according to yesterday's Soldexus video, only vote no. 2?

And yet we have five upcoming games decided already (according to Jet Gunner video 1)?

I missed the first vote, so I'm not the one to answer that part, but the second vote just happened, and was all non-Mario games. It looks like rao wants to play the top five vote-getters, so that should cover what he's playing in that slot for quite a while. Though I wouldn't be surprised if we see one or two other games mixed in as well.

yeah, to clarify

Last week was the second 'hey patrons let's vote for the next batch of games!!' event. Because mario stuff is kinda locked in for a while I specfically requested non-mario stuff for the morning video. Ultimately we had enough suggestions that I decided to garantee the top 5 to be let's played (my initial announcement was top 3 but there was enough games that I covertly boosted it up).

So the top five are gonna be played in reverse order, but it's gonna be similare to round 1 in that I may/will slip a different game between them as I see fit, either on a whim or because I really really want to play something, or like an 'important' game gets released Day in the Limelight 3 or Distorted Travesty 3, or something.

I read all 32 pages of azct yesterday, seems to be getting there, looking forward to seeing raocow play that

I have a question about how this thread works, I assume it was made before the patreon, since the patreon was made can only patreon backers post suggestions here, or are these suggestions screened by raocow and presented to the patreon crowd for a final vote

basically this thread still exists as a way for people to bring new things to the table to consider, and lets people discuss the relavite 'worth' of games being proposed, you know ?

also, as I said sometimes I'll personally pick a game to do between patreon suggestions, like for example I thought of Jet Gunner thanks to this thread!

Ok so the votes are done in batches, that makes more sense. The part that I didn't understand was it was only the second vote all this time.
