Dungeon diving today. Dragon Quest 8 (Playstation 2) part five at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. #streaming

Picking up Dragon Quest 8 (Playstation 2) again today at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. The party is now seeking an item that might grant them an audience with the king of Ascantha. #streaming

I'm streaming Dragon Quest 8 (Playstation 2 game) again over at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. Currently in the town of Simpleton, have just met Angelo. (Near the beginning of the game).

Been sick a few days so this might be a short session.

Continuing Dragon Quest 8 (Playstation 2) today over at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. Near the start of the game, exploring Alexandria.

I'm starting a playthrough of Dragon Quest 8: Journey Of The Cursed King (2004, Playstation 2) tonight at https://twitch.tv/andreaen.

I haven't played a long comfy JRPG in quite a while so this should be nice. (I figure it'll take me two or three months streaming a couple times a week to finish the game).

Playing Mirror's Edge (2008 FPS game) again tonight over at https://twitch.tv/andreaen.

Can I complete the game twice in one sitting? Maybe 1.5 times is more realistic.

Streaming Shadowrun SNES again today, looking to complete the randomizer seed I started over a week ago. https://twitch.tv/andreaen.

Going to play a bit of Mirror's Edge today over at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. Starting from the beginning, aim to play ~4 hours, see how far I can get.

Linking this 'cause I heard a short bit of it in a podcast earlier.

Doc Severinsen's cover of The Court Of The Crimson King by King Crimson:

SNES Shadowrun randomizer tonight over at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. Finishing up the seed I started on Thursday.

I'm starting up a game of Shadowrun SNES randomizer at https://twitch.tv/andreaen.

I know the game reasonably well but I've never played any kind of randomizer before. So I figure this will take multiple broadcasts to complete.

Loved Mirror's Edge. So glad I finally played it.

I really like complex movement in first-person video games and ME is some of the best. It's really well implemented and animated. It doesn't move like Quake (or CPM, Reflex, Warsow etc) - it's more realistic, has different goals - but it's just as satisfying to play.

Story is both a little slight and also well-suited to the scope of the game. If it were any "bigger" it'd be too much I think.

Combat is... not great. Thankfully it isn't the focus, the point. It did hold me up a few times though.

Sound (ambient sound, sound FX) is excellent. Soundtrack (by Solar Fields) is excellent. Nice glassy ambient and IDM-ish stuff.

I dunno. I want to sit here and praise the movement for several thousand words but this is long enough already. Game is fun.

Finishing Mirror's Edge (and likely starting it again) tonight at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. Starting in a few minutes.

Game is really good.

I'm playing Mirror's Edge tonight over at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. Never played it before (aside from testing to make sure it works). Been wanting to for a long time.

I'm starting up a Quake 1 mod testing stream over at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. Will play through Than's Deathmatch Dimension set of maps (again).

I expect to find some bugs in my mod...

It took about a week but I think I've managed to untangle Quake 1's projectiles & monster/weapon firing code. (Working with id1 and the progs_dump 3 source). Had to do a few rewrites and make a few checklists to keep it all straight.

Brain's been foggy too, that hasn't helped.
