Vacation!

I'm on vacation for two weeks, so no new Drakan for a while. I'll try to catch up when I get back. I was planning to do a marathon and stockpile a few playthrough videos, but I was working on my other project.

In the meantime, I was searching the Internet some time ago, and came across the chicken sword. I never found any proof, but I was wandering if anyone actually found it. So far I know it spawns randomly in the merchants inventory, and the only inclination that they have it, is you hear a chicken sound when you enter the store.

If anyone has a picture of this, I'd like to see it!

Drakan Break?

I'm late this week again. I've said that I'd do three videos a week and release them on the Friday of that week, but I keep falling behind. I'm trying to make time for my main project Shadow of the Brick 2, so that leaves little to no time for Drakan. I guess I have too much on my plate at the time. I'll try to play tonight, or maybe tomorrow. Look for three videos Monday. Maybe I'll feel guilty and do six? :)

Allot of people have been criticizing my skill at the game, particularly the parts where I'm flying Arokh. I have to tell you people, this game has clunky controls and deplorable clipping! You get stuck to the enviorment all the time. Landing Arokh is aggravating in its own. It shows the games age, but it's still a good game. And for the people still criticizing my game play in the earlier videos, like say from 10 to 20: ease up! I've got better since then. I forgot all about combos and the like till part 20 or more! I'm getting better still. This game is hard, and the parts you see me die is when I left it in because I thought the death animation was cool. For example the battle with Demog. He killed Rynn almost six or seven times till I used the spell to sploit a kill. I cut most of the second part out, that's why it was shorter and no third part was uploaded that week.

Ok, enough blog. I hope people read this. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it :)

Ravenshold

This game is longer than I remember, and seem to remember renting it twice to beat it. With only doing a half an hour a week, it might take a while to beat it, since I'm taking my time to get everything. Any one kn ow of any Black wing eggs in Ravenshold? I got a map showing three in Kragmore, which is more eggs in the entiore game that I ever got!

It's also alot harder without god mode on...

WTF?!

If you watched part... 35 or 36, i think, you'd notice that there's no audio. ... I think I had the wrong settings on Windows Movie Maker. I think I overrode the save before the part in the videos too, so I don't think I can redo it. The boss fight can be found elsewhere though...

May 9, 2008

I finally got around to uploading the recent session with Drakan. I'm getting to the Andrellion Islands now, and have just got the medicine bag back. This is from videos 25-27.

I'm also branching out to do some tricks and tips style videos with other games. I'm still doing Drakan, and am putting up three videos every week on Friday. It's getting good now too.

Primal is the next game...

Changes here...

No posts for awhile. I've moved the video part to my Youtube site and am only going to do commentary on the videos here. So go to the Youtube site for the videos, come here for comments on my progress and other opinions on the game(s).


Next game will be Primal, I'll start playing it when I'm done with Drakan, which won't be for a long while actually, Drakan is a long and hard game. I've been spending all my gold in that game for potions. It'll probably be June when I get done with Drakan.

No videos yet, I haven't played Drakan for a while now, college...

22-24 will be up by Friday, I'm doing 1 3o minute session at a time and slitting it up into 3 segments every time to fit Youtube restrictions.

Drakan Update

Sorry it's been awhile since I added any more videos for the Drakan playthrough, I've been editing and uploading them to Youtube for a while, so when I do add the new ones, they'll be ten minutes each. I've done this because it's easier to upload, and the audio was messing with the Google video uploader method. Look to the Matt's Gameplay account on Youtube for the new videos, come back here for commentary.
