Hey all.

I currently have a Co-Op Let's Play of Amnesia: The Dark Descent, a completed Let's Play of F.E.A.R., and a completed Let's Play of Dark Messiah: Might And Magic. Currently working on Bulletstorm. List of LPs that I have planned can be found on my channel.

I've kind of gone overboard on the uploads. I don't have a specific schedule, I just try to render and upload as often as I possibly can, but I hope to eventually slow down to a one-a-day schedule (probably soon), so people don't feel overwhelmed in uploads.

All of my Let's Plays can be found in my Playlists.

All comments and criticisms are appreciated! Thanks so much:

I do have a question though before I look

Is this a wimpy horror letsplay? As in... will I hear you scream and go "ooh my god" constantly?

It blows my mind that people come here to advertise their LPs.

Does B12 really pop up that high in regards to LPs that it actually draws people here to advertise their LPs?

Its cheaper then the place that does.'

Though being a nearly troll free environment is a huge bonus for Bay12

I don't jump at every single little thing. I can only recall two moments where both me and the person I'm playing with actually jump.

Thank goodness

It isn't that I dislike the LPer being afraid... it is that there seems to be a market for it by the bucket fulls and it just seems fake and stupid to me when a LPer does that.

Like that horrible Fatal Frame 2 letsplay... Goodness I never beat Fatal Frame (any of them) because I wimped out but even at my worst I wasn't like that.

Ok then I'll give your Letsplays a shot. I'll tell you what I think.

Yeah, everything on there is 100% natural response.

To be honest, the only reason I recorded it originally was so that my friend and I could look back in it a long time later. Then Let's Playing just kind of spawned off of it.

What kind of recording software do you use if you don't mind my asking?

I use the latest version of Fraps, which has the ability to record both the game, the game's audio, and my microphone, all in one video file.

Early watching saying observations of Amnesia Letsplay

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

However I guess I should try your other Letsplays.

Note: I am no expert. Second oppinion may be required.

Yeah, I totally understand what you mean. I personally feel that my others are more enjoyable simply because they were recorded and talked over with the actual intention of being an LP, much unlike the Amnesia recordings. Also, the one-side voice was an audio error and a mistake for me recording audio with two sources, and both of those problems go away at the 20th video, which, I agree, can be really annoying to work towards.

I appreciate your watching very much though, thank you.

I don't watch Video Lets plays so I can't judge it, to be honest.
