ASMBXT; Journey's end
Re: raocow Plays: ASMBXT After World 3 is World 4
Due to all that comma wonkiness, the bullets in River City are super fast for me. Interestingly, this doesn't make things much harder, since the out-of-place koopa counter terrorist somethings conveniently play an animation before they shoot...

Stop all that. I'm betting nothing in those spoilers is relevant to this LP. I think there's another thread for general asmxt discussion. Anyway, Rao asked that people not discuss future levels here, even in spoilers.

Oh, so that's why they shot their bullets so fast for me, and I thought it was intentional.Octagon wrote:Due to all that comma wonkiness, the bullets in River City are super fast for me.

It just, at some point, changed for absolutely no reason whatsoever on my end.
It might not be the comma/period thing after all, I don't know, I know nothing...

If the game is played in a place where the opposite of the how the game is written (i.e. the player is in a comma decimal point when the game is made in a place with a period one) it freaks out.

Tree of coins thing: The spriteset had the topmost tree graphics missing, so as a joke I did that. The text I made up on the spot.
The background was tiled by Duker, that's his work, superb job and thank you once again!
I hope someone got the 'A Mega Demo Universe Lateral Manufacture' thing.
EDIT: Oh yeah, it was supposed to be a Yoshi Coin, hence the 'horse coin'.

sf3 has the best sf music (necro has the best themes in new generation, 2nd impact and 3rd strike), i heard the ex games also have good music but i don't remember the first two's music (i never played ex3)
taizo hori is the guy from dig dug and also the father of the guy from mr. driller (susumu hori)
i don't get the IaMP and SWR thing though
kash needs to make more levels, it's like chriddof and docfuture tried to make a mario world hack, minus a bunch of references to obscure 80s and 90s pop culture and 70s-mid 80s british programming

Re: raocow Plays: ASMBXT After World 3 is World 4
So...
Capital City [of Flowers] in the Sky sort of happened. I guess it was a nice sky level type thing.
Where's the Floor? was another level that sort of happened. The whole Piranha Plant coming out of the wood thing a little disorienting and a bit strange. Plus I had no idea that was the secret exit.
Lusco Fusco... was that supposed to make sense in any way, shape, or form? I'm utterly baffled by it. Something about a tree and car keys and a mega Demo emporium thing that I don't get and Immaterial and Missing Power and Scarlet Weather Rhapsody. It kind of went over my head.

Re: raocow Plays: ASMBXT After World 3 is World 4
Hey there, talkhaus! What's your opinion on this...
At first I didn't want to see anywhere ahead of where raocow was up to with the game, because most (not all, but definitely most) Youtube let's play vids I've watched in the past that weren't either new or nostalgically old to me were less fun than ones I knew inside out or had played recently.
For most of World One, I managed pretty much to watch my daily raocow, then that evening (raocow vids are a midday-ish thing here in the UK) I'd do the levels he'd done- rinse and repeat daily. That was my initial plan, but, the levels were just too fresh in my head which took a great deal of fun out of them for me; so- end of World One-ish- I played waaaay ahead of Monsieur cow and (probably obviously!) got a lot more fun and WAY more laughs from the game, but slightly less from the daily cow vids.
So, everyone- what are your thoughts/habits/routines/rituals/vows with respect to the aforementioned above-upthered-(^^^^)ness?
"~-,._.,-~"~-,._.,-~"~-,._.,-~"~-,._.,-~"~-,._.,-~"~-,._.,-~
I wasn't sure if this should go in the ASMBXT thread, as it could apply to any game really, but this is where I'm puttin' it! (Could a mod move it/start a new thread with it if need be please?)
"~-,._.,-~"~-,._.,-~"~-,._.,-~"~-Hey! These wavy lines I made are pretty cool!
Too long; didn't read? Don't be lazy!

Re: raocow Plays: ASMBXT After World 3 is World 4
Personally, it doesn't really make too much difference to me. One of the reasons I watch raocow is because he plays the kind of games I don't, which is pretty much my number one requirement for let's players. The more well acquainted I am with a game, the more likely I am to get annoyed when a let's player doesn't play it well; I find it far easier to be patient if it's a game I'm no good at. Furthermore, I don't actually find I lose anything from being 'spoiled' by prior knowledge of a game. When I see a scene, I react pretty much the same as if I was playing the game myself. If it's gameplay that's trying to get a reaction, I'm usually too focused on actually playing the game to provide an emotional response.benzeenie wrote:All sorts of things
That said, I was going to make ASMBXT the exception to the rule, since I know how hard the other forumites worked on it, but I've simply never had reliable enough internet to download the dang thing. So there's that.
I find that, on the rare occasion I do have foreknowledge that the let's player doesn't, I enjoy their reaction more because of the anticipation. It's an interesting game to try and guess how they'll deal with something before they do.
tl;dr don't be lazy
Edit: acquainted has a c in it. I always fudge that spelling. Q is a letter that confuses me whenever it appears.

*EDIT*
Something I forgot to mention in my long rambling mess of a post before- Does anyone else have any problems/issues with the text boxes in the game? I'm not sure what it is, (the white on blue?) I've got pretty good eyesight and only seem to have trouble with this game's text; it's weird! I read very fast usually, but I find I have to pause when watching raocow- and when playing myself I often have to re-read the text a couple of times.
I really haven't got any idea what it's about- I can't think of any other online or offline reading problems I have. I read a lot of stuff online and a huge amount of books in my spare time too.
(It's a bit worrying to be completely honest!)

Re: raocow Plays: ASMBXT After World 3 is World 4
I enjoy LPs whether I've played the game or not, which is one reason why (not on the talkhaus, obviously) I've actually begun LPing a few months back, because it's enjoyable.
EDIT: This made me think that perhaps people might be interested in them, so I linked my LPs in my signature. That is, if you care. You don't have to.
Also, this discussion is a bit off-topic, huh?

Re: raocow Plays: ASMBXT After World 3 is World 4
I just played ahead immediately since working on the game means you usually have pretty much everything spoiled anyway (and I didn't do much to stop that for myself).benzeenie wrote:<snip> <snip> <snip>

Crap! I ripped it...
...
Sorry for ripping your post benzeenie.
Though - now I have about 47 stars... And this game is hard. So raocow is already overtaking me.
I will admit though - knowing what's coming up takes a bit of the fun out of it. So I'm kind of glad raocow is outclassing me at platforming.
The first thing I would do with infinite power would be to make myself a cave where I could look at my shadow forever.
<- Go team Yeah Doctor Shemp.!
<- That's everyone being nice to me. ^^
I made a game called Utter Confusion! Play it! :D
It's a lot of fun and has been incredibly popular at every indie game dev party I've brought it to.

Re: raocow Plays: ASMBXT After World 3 is World 4
Well, you can't really expect a let's play of a game that you've already played to be be extremely enjoyable, since you have already played it you're either bored of something you've seen before, or (sub)consciously critiquing the gameplay style. sometimes you might have to chose between playing a game and watching.benzeenie wrote:Too much
But, if you want to continue doing both, you can see how, an LPer would react to a stage or part you had trouble with or you can be interested by how a level can be progressed differently as a different player character.
man, that entire second paragraph was probably complete nonsense

I just knew he would accidentally get a powerup without using the clock.
Re: raocow Plays: ASMBXT After World 3 is World 4
Come on, raocow! It's one thing to have a "let's yell at the screen" video when there are puzzles about, but really... When signs say "hey use a shell", the concept of using a shell should spring to mind pretty darn quickly.
If I had to give World 4 a theme, I'd go with something like "Almost Rainy Rainforest". Most of the levels that fit in any environment in the first place either are forest area levels or have something to do with water, even though none of them are ever "water levels" like we're used to. In fact, most of the time there's barely anything to swim in.
...Though I have to admit, counting "Welcome To River City" just because of the name is... stretching it.

Anyone else think that raocow seemed to be playing extra badly today? He was playing (imho) the same way I do when I've just switched up from a regular old SMW hack- straight to playing on the SMBX engine.

Its funny how raocow understood the coin arrow in my level to use the shells against the Lakitus... then even managed to kill himself off his own shells.

I find raocow fairly entertaining regardless. Last game I played at the same time though was Distorted Travesty which I got stuck in the jungle on before quitting. Usually I watch a few videos and then download the game (such as ASMBXT which I have yet to even unzip) but I have a habit of not getting around to playing it due to being busy with other things.benzeenie wrote:So, everyone- what are your thoughts/habits/routines/rituals/vows with respect to the aforementioned above-upthered-(^^^^)ness?
