DF Game Club: The Raven, Chapter 2 (part 3)

(07:07:08) Permafry_42: anyway I'm gonna get started on streaming the rest of the raven now
(07:07:21) Permafry_42: in 5
(07:07:22) Permafry_42: 4
(07:07:22) Permafry_42: 3
(07:07:24) Permafry_42: 2
(07:07:25) Permafry_42: 1
(07:07:31) Sven_Q45: zero
(07:07:34) Sven_Q45: :D
(07:07:35) Cheeseness: Woo \o/
(07:07:36) Permafry_42: k it should be live now
(07:07:49) Permafry_42: fireworks go off =D
(07:08:10) Permafry_42: wait 1 sec
(07:08:13) Sven_Q45: sound?
(07:08:18) Cheeseness: I see it
(07:08:30) Permafry_42: acidentally had it set to 60 fps XD
(07:08:46) Cheeseness: Ah, k
(07:08:59) Permafry_42: k should be live again in the corect frame rate
(07:09:23) Syd: It's live
(07:09:24) Cheeseness: I see it
(07:11:21) Permafry_42: since we won't be playing the 3rd part for a little while, one last time to enjoy the music opening =D
(07:11:32) Sven_Q45: yeah
(07:11:42) Cheeseness: :D
(07:11:44) flesk: Me too, Perma. Looking forward to it.
(07:12:19) flesk: Sounds neat, Sven. :)
(07:13:05) Sven_Q45: The music sounds great.
(07:13:06) flesk: Trains are neat locations in games. I always like those.
(07:13:44) Permafry_42: yeah i love the uncharted 2 train levels
(07:13:58) Sven_Q45: I more like cities and water locations.
(07:15:03) Permafry_42: the train level in paper mario 2 is fun too
(07:15:08) Syd: Trains make for a great location in adventure games. An enclosed area that has a good reason to be enclosed, and there can be a big variety of NPCs inside.
(07:17:53) Permafry_42: i like how the boy is both extremely fearless and at the same time extremely anxious about being caught
(07:18:06) Permafry_42: also i love the asshole line
(07:18:15) flesk: Good point. There's at least The Last Express and S&M 302.
(07:18:29) Cheeseness: I feel like maybe Adil's character is a little too talkative
(07:18:39) Sven_Q45: Or Agathi Cristi orient express.
(07:18:58) Cheeseness: At least at this point in the game
(07:19:06) Permafry_42: or syberia at one point i think
(07:20:47) Permafry_42: we really need to do syberia at some point btw
(07:20:59) Sven_Q45: yes!
(07:22:02) Permafry_42: although we still have a few other games like the spy fox series that we need to do too
(07:22:35) Permafry_42: plus eventually we should probably do pj 4 to finish the series
(07:22:50) Permafry_42: anyway i really liked this puzzle
(07:23:10) Permafry_42: to get the letter in the vent i mean
(07:23:53) Cheeseness: Yeah, this was a nice puzzle
(07:24:21) Permafry_42: plus it does a great job showing how safe got a letter on it, which was a nice mystery
(07:24:50) Permafry_42: it makes it all the cooler that it was improvised
(07:24:55) Cheeseness: I'm going to send a birthday message to Tim from everyone :)
(07:25:46) flesk: Oh, it's his birthday today?
(07:25:52) Cheeseness: Apparently ^_^
(07:26:12) Permafry_42: Tell him i said not to let the negative fans that doubted him about grim fandango get him down since we all love him and his games =D
(07:26:47) Cheeseness: It was via a Twitter DM - not quite enough characters for that :D
(07:27:29) Permafry_42: then just say happy birthday and thanks so much for grim fandango =D
(07:27:51) Permafry_42: or i will when i'm done lol
(07:28:16) Sven_Q45: And thanks for DAY OF THE TENTACLE!!
(07:28:44) Permafry_42: and for everything he's helped to make happen thanks to la and df
(07:28:59) Cheeseness: I just said happy birthday from the Game Club community :b
(07:30:47) Cheeseness: So when you play the first chapter, you don't see Adil at all
(07:30:51) Cheeseness: Continuity ;_;
(07:31:35) Permafry_42: btw i like how adil in the game he is so suave during whenever he steals stuff or acts in front of people. its a nice foil for zellner
(07:32:07) Cheeseness: Would it be more of a counterpoint than a foil since they don't directly interact?
(07:32:35) Permafry_42: yeah fair point
(07:32:45) Permafry_42: though they do talk later
(07:32:57) Permafry_42: next chapter and last chapter
(07:32:58) Cheeseness: And just then :D
(07:33:10) Permafry_42: lol yeah
(07:36:08) Cheeseness: This part of the game feels a bit restrictive, but I think it's necessarily so
(07:36:25) Permafry_42: yeah you don't want time paradoxes lol
(07:38:14) Cheeseness: Have I mentioned that I like the cursor in this game?
(07:38:48) Cheeseness: So this piece of music. Is this new?
(07:40:24) Permafry_42: i'm not sure
(07:42:55) Cheeseness: Inch is so angry :D
(07:43:09) Sven_Q45: Yes. :D
(07:43:22) Permafry_42: Inch is a very calculated criminal
(07:43:34) Permafry_42: but also a clear psychopath
(07:45:06) Permafry_42: Plus he's a butler. I think adil is a much more interesting criminal than the raven
(07:45:24) Cheeseness: Assuming he's not The Raven :b
(07:45:42) Permafry_42: fair point lol
(07:46:18) Cheeseness: TBH, I'm not sure if Inch's character works so well if he's working for someone else. He acts like he knows what the big picture is, but I'm not sure that he does.
(07:48:23) Permafry_42: Tbh inch in general is a pretty boring character imo
(07:48:48) Cheeseness: I think his relationship with the Baroness is more interesting than his criminal role
(07:49:23) Permafry_42: yeah definetely
(07:49:58) Permafry_42: i do like inch's name though
(07:50:58) Cheeseness: He's a worm :D
(07:51:20) Permafry_42: i like the relationship reveal here
(07:51:28) Cheeseness: Yeah, surprise!
(07:51:50) Permafry_42: the chapter ending was a bit anticlimatic though for those who had to wait for the next chapter i imagine.
(07:52:09) Permafry_42: inch's reveal is more interesting as an ending to me
(07:52:14) Sven_Q45: What nearly an hour? Wow.
(07:52:14) Cheeseness: I didn't mind, I don't think
(07:52:46) Cheeseness: So starting next week, Syd is going to stream Toonstruck
(07:52:56) Syd: Yep. :D
(07:53:04) Cheeseness: and of course, there's the forum thread to share thoughts on The Raven http://www.doublefine.com/forums/viewthread/14388/
(07:53:33) Permafry_42: Yup I'll probably be gone the week after next, but i'll try to be here next week
(07:54:12) Cheeseness: It's all good ^_^
(07:56:25) Permafry_42: Thanks to everyone for joining =D
(07:56:30) Cheeseness: ^_^
(07:56:31) Syd: Thanks for streaming, Perma
(07:56:36) Cheeseness: I'll have the chat log and new thread up in a bit
(07:57:55) Permafry_42: Alrighty. I'm gonna go play some rayman origins now, so cya next week
(07:58:43) Permafry_42 left the room (quit: Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).
(07:59:26) Cheeseness: Thanks for streaming :D
