Here is the famous bucket.txt What inside do you look forward to the most ?

[raocow]

Hey! It's me, Goku!

so for a while I've been cultivating a list of games. they are all the games that I want to lp one day. Some of them are games from my past that I want to relive. Some are games of other pasts, that I always wanted to play. Some are new games, some suggested from friends, from fans, from the talkhaus thread, from patreon. All these games.

There are over 300 entries at this point.

I've been using this list to determine like game votes and whatnot, don't worry about it. What I do want you to worry about is, anything in there that seems particularly exciting ?!



note that the list is extremely designed for me so some game names might not be coherent, sometimes a name entry is meant to represent a series and you won't know, and it's not particularly organised

edit

after the Mosts are done I'm probably gonna add this to the OP of the coming up next thread, since it's pretty relevant. It'll also be easier to discuss things out

[RedMageSusie]

Touhou Luna Nights

[Valentine]

MONOLITH MONOLITH MONOLITH MONOLITH MONOLITH MONOLITH MONOLITH MONOLITH

Extremely Honorable Mentions:
ZERORAAAAAAAANGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER
CROSSCODE CROSSCODE CROSSCODE CROSSCODE

Regular Honorable Mentions:
Touhou Luna Nights
Bloodstained: Curse of The Moon
axiom verge (Decent game, but i think it'd be a fine let's play)
Untitled Goose Game (very fitting)
r-ack

Dishonorable Mentions:
Regular bloodstained (more like badstained + im biased)
Luigi's Fight for The Mushroom Kingdom (Aged extremely badly)
SMW Gaiden (I didn't Like it + I think it'd be a boring let's play)
Risk of Rain (I don't think it would work as a let's play at all + im biased)

I decided to go fairly in depth

[Skye]

Trials Evolution
Trackmania 2
Diablo II
Chrono Trigger
Mega Man Legends
Portal
Fez
Baldy Mario god please please please
With Isikoro Mario World, I'd hope for a translation to be completed before you LP it.
Also, I'm pretty sure that Seawar Mario World is still incomplete.

[idol]

god please play dark souls

out of smw hacks, smw gaiden i think would be the most fun. though id still love to see you do cldc 2020 lol. the smw scene keeps growing bigger and there's a lot of hacks out rn that i think 2012 you would've played that 2022 you is maybe too busy for. a plumber for all seasons is also like objectively worth lping and showing off, it's a pretty clear decade worth of effort.

literally directly ping me if the banjo lp ever happens.

[raocow]

literally directly ping me if the banjo lp ever happens.

I mean.
It's in the coming up next list :U

[Rixithechao]

I am overwhelmed by the prospect of having to select one game out of everything listed in bucket.txt but I am happy this category exists

that is my vote for Most Anticipated bucket.txt Game 2021 thank you

[cousinoer5]

Copy Kitty HARD The world and everything inside must be destroyed once more.

Also Rhythm Heaven would definitely be a fun time

[HatKid]

Well, that is quite a big list.

I guess here's what I'd be most interested in:
A Plumber for All Seasons
super mario world remade from memory
Zwei!! 2
Scribblenauts (assuming this is the original on DS?)
Chrono Trigger
Super Mario Sunshine
Metal Wolf Chaos XD

[helucard]

If I gotta give a single one as my vote, it's gonna be the Copy Kitty Hard playthrough.

Given the amount of ideas in that list which I like the look of and want to express interest in, it's perhaps best I shove them all in a collapsible block. So yeah, here's a bunch of 'OH MY GOSH WOW' in the spoiler below.

• Downwell I've heard good things about.
• AHiT Death Wish is gonna be tough to play. I never did beat this myself.
• Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams looked RAD.
• Azure Striker Gunvolt also looks RAD.
• 20XX was a fun play, I enjoyed it. That said, 30XX is still being worked on, and feels like it'd be more suitable for a non-roguelike LP if that's what you'd prefer. If that's the case, might be best to hang on for that? Either way, I do enjoy both.
• Rocket Knight series heck yeah that sounds like a blast
• zelda3/super metroid randomiser - depending on the settings, this has the potential to be either a fun event or a confusing mess and I would watch either hahahaha. I know a guy who can point to a tracker, should you need one suggested.
• Panzer Dragoon is a fantastic series, I particularly loved Orta.
• klonoa could be a good one!
• f-zero gx was fantastic - would you just be doin GP's or Story Mode?
• brawl subspace emissiary implies we'd get to see the raocow smash bros fighting style, and I'm curious!
• freedom planet was great, but given that there's multiple characters with different playstyles, would you do all of those, or just one run?
• Yooka Laylee was good enough to have me 100% it, for whatever that's worth.
• Copy Kitty HARD has been a long time coming.
• Turok could be pretty good!
• serious sam could also be a fun time!
• "normal real bloodstained" - Assuming you mean Ritual of the Night, given that Curse of the Moon was also listed - This is another game I got so into that I 100%ed. A fun ride the whole time.
• melody's escape strikes me as a strange decision given that it's like audiosurf, you put music in and it generates a level. With the bloodthirsty youtube algorithm, are you sure about that?
• jet set radioooooooooooooo!!
• metroid prime is love forever. The first one likes to backseat with map directions after a bit, tho.
• spark the electric jester is one I would like to see!
• mighty switch force is pretty neat!

[Emral]

Crosscode, obviously.

Shoutouts to MAGMML2, ZeroRanger and Touhou Luna Nights, all of which _barely_ didn't make my royal list earlier.

e: i will just note that 2021 smbx levels are a lot better than 2020 smbx levels so make of that what you will

[Dragon Fogel]

There are definitely some intriguing entries, as well as amusingly-worded ones that don't necessarily catch my interest, but I think I'm going to have to say MAGMML2 for this one.

Edit: Just noticed DROD is on there, changing my vote out of brand loyalty.

Also Return of the Obra Dinn would probably be a hilarious disaster.

[YelseyKing]

My favorites:
- when released: psycutlery --
best 8 levels of 2020 as decided by the smbx community
aero the acrobat ?!?!
that new puzzle shovel knight game
bubsy bubsy bubsy BOBCAT
that one late 90s pc game about a lady and a dragon
that Prinny hard platformer for the PSP
iwbtg??!??!
touhouvania (the older ones?)
a game with a kitty series (each game is real short)
Hanabi the Witch -- actually this is the second game the first one is ameagari something
Gauntlet Legends or Dark Legacy
super benbo quest: turbo deluxe (apparently renamed 'mario' )(?!)
more crash ?
[a fighting game]
that prequel to rose in the twilight with the impossible name
shantae ?!
finish the parodius series with Sexy Parodius
let's give Valdys Story another try with another character

(Note: Don't take this as me actually voting or anything. These were just the entries that most amused me.)

That said, after watching pholtos' LP of the game, it'd be amusing to see you take on Equinox.

And in all seriousness, Environmental Station Alpha would be my *actual* pick. Wanted to see you do that one for quite some time.

[Valentine]

e: i will just note that 2021 smbx levels are a lot better than 2020 smbx levels so make of that what you will

Now that this is mentioned i would like to wholeheartedly recommend switching out "top 8 levels from 2020 picked out by the smbx community" with "SMBX Chocolate Contest 2021" and if that is done i will compile the hub myself for the sake of convenience

[horsecicle]

I really want to see Guacamelee 2. Your LP of Guacamelee is possibly one of my favorite LPs of yours, and I would love to see you tackle the sequel.

[KobaBeach]

rockman cx oof ow ouch
Chrono Trigger oh good a jrpg raocow might be good at
jet set radio hmm
finish the parodius series with Sexy Parodius thank god
Jetpack (dos) pog
let's give Valdys Story another try with another character lmao
bayonetta yo
random week, using flashpoint POOOOOG
consider the Rabi-Ribi dlc "consider"
frog fraction yessss
Seawar Mario World / 模倣マリオ okay so seawar is technically my friend but Man this is jank
that Prinny hard platformer for the PSP dood

i want jetpack, random week and frog fractions the most tbh

EDIT: count my vote as jetpack if you have to

[EllenHouraisan]

The thingy isn't displaying for me. :(

[camwoodstock]

gotta be DROD

[MonkeyShrapnel]

I think my number 1 has to be Diablo II

I don't think I've ever played a game that has such a strong sense of aesthetic, well, other than Diablo 1 funny enough,
still besides that, there's a reason why people are still addicted to this game two decades later, it's just incredibly fun and satisfying to play

Honorable Mentions:

Trials Evolution - This game would definitely fit in with the raocow™ style, hard but very low iteration time, plus just a fun game in general

LIMBO - Cool visual style, with a mix of relatively simple puzzles and platforming

Banjo - Fun characters and dialogue, a fun 3-D collect-a-thon, and a great OST

Dark Souls - Heheheh, this is a game that would be extremely interesting to see just how you'd approach it,
it's often the victim of being the "Dark Souls" of difficulty if you catch my drift, but there's a lot more to this game than that

Braid - Very fun puzzle game focused on a cool set of concepts also the lore is fucked up

Pepsiman - PEPSI MAAAAAAAN

Chrono Trigger - A game well deserving of its renown, 'nuff said

og DOOM - There's a reason why "DOOM clone" became a common term, also, I think this would be great for a raocow LP

[Grounder]

Prinny (though with a big * for knowing not all of its contents will be agreeable, being aimed at a different audience like a decade ago)
Touhou Luna Nights
Klonoa
Sly Cooper 1 (though maybe not the others, being less platforming focused)
Freedom Planet
Touhouvania 1 & 2
Bomberman 64
One of the Scribblenauts (not the first one)
Mega Man Legends series
Cat Girl Without Salad
Metal Slug 4-6
Mirror's Edge
Jazzpunk
Diddy Kong Racing
Shantae
Monkey Ball Mania
WarioWare

[ano0maly]

So here's a non-exhaustive list of games that caught my interest:

• A Hat in Time - Death Wish
• Rosenkreuzstilette - Grollschwert, Weißsilber
• SMWC Island
• (best 8 levels of 2020 as decided by the SMBX community) - This honestly sounds like an interesting idea that also has a large community input.
• SMW Remade from Memory
• Azure Striker Gunvolt - The concern is that people have said that this is a score optimization kind of game and the design is much more exploitable if you're just trying to "beat" it. But I think the plot and characters are still work checking out.
• Rhythm Heaven
• Diablo II - So... how is this exactly going to work? There are

  seven

  playable characters, and even one of them will take considerable amount of time. Also, the original release + expansion, or the Resurrected remaster? Resurrected does come with some helpful quality of life improvements.
• Super Smash Bros. Brawl - Subspace Emissary - Again, character choices?
• N+
• Gris
• Pepsiman
• Tobari and the Night of the Curious Moon - Yes please! This is desunoya's main IP and the original story involving Hina's Fluffy Dream characters. The game also has a sequel (recommended) and a nightmare hard version of that sequel (fun for hardcore challenge but not recommended for LP).
• ENDER LILIES: Quietus of the Knights
• Momodora: Reverie Under the Moonlight
• New Super Mario Bros. - I hope it's the original DS version. I played that and like that a lot.
• Crypt of the Necrodancer
• Devil May Cry
• Mirror's Edge - I prefer Still Alive in this game over that of Portal.
• Cave Story - Just to finally cross it off the more outdated "do not suggest" list in request grab-bag OP.
• CrossCode
• Super Ledgehop: Double Laser
• Rabi-Ribi - Cocoa Mode & Before Next Adventure - So to explain the DLC that came out post-LP: Before Next Adventure (2019) adds a few new SP boss fights, along with some nice visual additions, like 4(!) alternate costumes for Ribbon. Then, at the start of 2021, it added a whole playable Cocoa mode in Speedrun Mode (has no story but plays quite differently).

[Catabo]

Phoenotopia

It's either my most recent or second-most recent game that is also one of my favourites in recent memory, depending on when Omori (would not recommend for a series, for the record) released (CrossCode is chronologically just behind those two). Gameplay might take some time to get used to, but the game's got so much heart put into it that I can't not recommend it.

honourable mentions:
Ticket (it's a little too much for me as a player, but would make for a fun series)
SMW Remade from Memory (I played a chunk of it, but I'd love to see the reactions of someone who knows the game way better)
Tobari and the Night of the Curious Moon (I'm surprised this wasn't already played years ago and I just wasn't there for it)
Klonoa (smbx annoying voice man: origins)

[Bean]

Azure Striker Gunvolt

You've done a lot of the not Sonics. I've wanted to see you do not Mega Man Zero but with tag and frag play for a while now. The Bloodstained games and Freedom Planet are also up there.

The one that isn't on the list that I'd like to see the most is a sequel to one that is in Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair. It's basically another DKC game instead of an attempt at Banjo-Kazooie.

[Reecer7]

i'm voting Return of the Obra Dinn because it's on there and i'm not at all thinking about what the lp would be like

but drod is a close second

[kitikami]

all the touhous (main)

I would also love to see Shadow of the Colossus and Copy Kitty Hard, and having never heard of SMW Remade from Memory, that is too enticing a concept to not want to see at some point.
