Dwarf Fortress Let's play (BACK, Part 6 out!)
« on: August 13, 2012, 09:03:06 am »

Update
I know I have been gone for awile, as in nearly a year, and I had given up on this whole Youtube thing, but then I had a revilation, an decided you start again. I made 2 videos of the Binding of Isaac, then decided to, finally, make the 6th installment of DF. Yay!

The reason Iv been dead, by the way, is because my computer broke. Like, it smashed, and I had to send it in. So, yeah. Sorry.

Introduction
Yep. Iv been wanting to do this for a while and I finally got the means to record it with :D. Just a quick heads up, my mic is really low in the first few videos so be sure to turn it up. I'll be uploading a video every day or so, and a few every weekend during school time, mostly Dwarf Fortress. Each video will be around 10-15 minutes long, due to the 15 minute limit and the fact that I don't have a phone. I'm not really sure how else to promote myself other then this, s'yeah...... watch my videos pl0x?

Episodes

Episode 1; Choosing an embark site: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7rHRfSSh1Q
In this video, I try to choose an embark good for the LP. Its not too hard so I die to quickly (i.e evil like I usually do) and not too easy (i.e the perfect embark). In the end, I choose freezing forest/glacier embark that had everything I wanted.

Episode 2; Preparing our build: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pRm5ebc-38&feature=plcp
Baisicaly just spending too much time preparing a really good build. Some things you might want to keep in mind for the future is that I gave my miners novice swimming, something everyone should do. Will be usful in the future, trust me.

Episode 3; Doing something: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAPCmJdNPyc&feature=youtu.be
Had some technical difficulties, so you missed out on me mining out the base fort, but overall I came up with a beast design that I will try to put if effect once I get enough materials. I got the base fort down, and the food industry running, so for food and drink, we are all good. I also started planning for a space-related mega-project. If you want more info, why not watch the video :o?

Episode 4; With facecam!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WzZqHdQFYE
Yep, I got a webcam, and will be using it from now on! Other then that, I just continue to establish my base fort and plan for the future.

Episode 5; Oh Ingish: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8qsLt0HCeU&feature=youtu.be
We finally build up the military by one, just to have it go down by one as poor Ingish gets pwned in the ground by a louse.

Episode 6; Back, after all these years....: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdFlOW-sGtE&feature=youtu.be
Not much happened. Ingish died, which was expected. I dug out a Metal-working area finally. S'yeah. If you were thinking to yourself, "You know what? A DF video by WaffleEggnog would be nice", then boom, wish granted!

I am currently investigating what Brainfreez is on. It is the greatest drug that any man, woman, kobold or pony has ever seen, going off of that everything he posts is pure win.

What are you using to record this? I've tried Fraps, but for some reason it doesn't work with DF.

I recall we had a 9-year-old here some time ago. So you're gonna need a time machine to give DF to your younger self if you wanna beat that.

If you get right down to it, do any of us succeed in the end?

If you come on the forums for a week asking questions and then just leave and never touch DF again, I dont really think it counts as "playing". Thats what I planned on doing when I started, until I realised how badass this community, and this game, was.

Also, new video coming out some time today :D.

Im using Camtaisia to record my DF vids.
