VIP 3 Redux: FINAL: Grace of Kings

Post by Zephyr_DragonLord »

I heard that VIP 3 was going to come back sooner than expected, so this thread's going to be here for anticipation of what raocow's going to go through this time. ...And it seems my guess was right. Huzzah!

There was a brief stint where there were technical issues, but now progress can resume. Hopefully this will remain for at least a few more years...

For those of you unaware(for some reason), the VIP games are a series of Japanese romhacks made by the 2chan community. The level design is... interesting, to say the least. And sometimes it slams the player down... hard. With that, we get to see what went right... and wrong. There's also a wacky sense of humor in the VIP series, and it's something that likely made raocow nostalgic for the VIP series in general. Hopefully, we'll see an abundance of that here.

I think I watched the Youtube version of the VIP3 LP but it was so long ago that I don't remember a lot about it. This is the one with X in world 1, right? I remember that level all too well.
Because Touhou OCs can in fact exist, sounds fake I know.

I can't change my username but I go by Vali/Claire now (aka call me Vali or Claire at your leisure ^^).

I never update this currently playing section anymore, it's probably an RPG or something.

Huh, VIP 3 already coming next? Thought the next Patreon voted game was next since Drama Mystery 2 was pretty short and raocow having played lots of SMW hacks lately especially the still recent JUMP, which was very hard.

But I'm not to complain, since I love the VIP series. Looking forward to it. :)

By the way, I still need to get caught up on raocow's Vip2 redo, so I went to look for a playlist to quickly watch through them, but found none. I rectified that!

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=P ... AH2SlZmr9l

Let me know if someone already put together a playlist or something like that, or if there are any problems or whatever.

At any rate, I'm excited to actually be watching raocow do a VIP in real time!

As I said in VIP2 Redux's thread, it's neat to see these games again to see how well they hold up. I've been more so looking forward to this one in particular, since this one was always the 'real' start to the VIP series. Hopefully everything goes well, my memory of 3 is still very fuzzy here and there.

Man, it feels weird seeing X again after so long. It's a level that's really silly to figure out as you go, but it's not overly hard. Just kinda weird and, like raocow said, obfuscating. The 3 Mario second room though is a pretty nasty trap. Also the one time I played VIP3, I don't think I ever fell for the double-hit switch, probably because I always worry whenever I hit SMW switches that I double hit it so if it looks like it hit twice I usually repress it. It's one of those "hey are you actually paying attention player" things. I think it's fair though.
Because Touhou OCs can in fact exist, sounds fake I know.

Yeah I wasn't really expecting VIP 3 this early, but it's nice to see again since I remember practically nothing about VIP 3.

Speaking of raocow lp playlists, who was it that's in charge of the raolists channel? It hasn't been updated in quite a long time. Its last update was Escape Goat episode 16.

They should've turned the account over to someone who'd keep it up then. Anyone know how to get into contact with them? If they're willing to turn it over to me I'd be fine with updating it.

This soon into the game, and there are already underhanded tricks. Never change, VIP. I don't remember too much from this game either, so looking back to see what this VIP did would be nice. At least none of the nastier levels are required yet, which is good.

To be fair to that switch block... I have hit switch blocks and had them "double hit" so many times that I would have just assumed that same thing happened and hit it again anyways :1 The least tricky thing in the world because it basically replicates what switches already sometimes do. It wouldn't be normal to overestimate it and assume it's a graphic swap unless you think you (but fail to) remember it from a past experience.

So raocow tricked himself!
