(07:01:31) Syd: Okay, everything looks good, starting up in a minute
(07:01:52) Cheeseness: Has the steam event gone off? I haven't seen a notification yet
(07:01:55) Jenni [Mibbit@888F7ACE.DE72B444.5DE9E83A.IP] entered the room.
(07:01:59) Cheeseness: Hey Jenni
(07:02:12) Syd: Hey Jenni. We'll be starting in just a minute
(07:02:49) flesk: Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright is good, Syd?
(07:03:00) Syd: I'm only a few hours in, but I'm enjoying it so far
(07:03:22) Jenni: Hi. Made it in time for the start this week. Good. :)
(07:03:31) Cheeseness: Yay
(07:03:41) Syd: Okay, let's get this started. Going live, let me know when you see the title card.
(07:03:42) Sven_Q45: I´m playing Randals Monday.
(07:04:06) Jenni: How is it Sven?
(07:04:22) Jenni: I've been wanting to pick that up
(07:04:46) Sven_Q45: Not that highlight. but I like it. Many many references to adventure games! :O
(07:04:58) Syd: We live yet?
(07:05:19) Cheeseness: Yup, it's live, syd
(07:06:15) Cheeseness: Enjoy \o/
(07:07:12) flesk: Sven_Q45: I heard it's a bit similar to Ben There, Dan That...?
(07:07:28) flesk: I think. Unless I'm confusing it with something else.
(07:08:00) Sven_Q45: I do not know Ben There, Dan That....                            yet. :D
(07:08:04) Cheeseness: The environments in this game are so good
(07:08:32) Cheeseness: Sven_Q45: It and its sequel are pretty good. The devs sometimes join us for Game Club
(07:08:37) Jenni: Yeah.  It just oozes atmosphere
(07:08:50) flesk: Ben Ward is pretty active on DFAF too.
(07:09:08) flesk: Especially in the Grim Fandango Remastered sub forum.
(07:09:33) Sven_Q45: ok
(07:09:48) Cheeseness: Mona seems to be more accepting of her contition now
(07:09:52) Cheeseness: condition^
(07:11:08) Sven_Q45: Yeah books. Not vidoegames! :D
(07:12:36) Sven_Q45: videogames
(07:13:12) Cheeseness: The sound design is pretty decent too
(07:13:15) GameClubFan_496083 [Mibbit@40A1B05A.E713A74C.71AA593A.IP] entered the room.
(07:13:48) Sven_Q45: Of what Cheese?
(07:14:05) Cheeseness: A Vampyre Story. The game we're talking about
(07:15:16) Cheeseness: For anybdoy who doesn't know, AME is Autumn Moon Entertainment - the developers
(07:15:18) Jenni: Love that Autumn Moon Entertainment reference
(07:15:21) Sven_Q45: I love the atmosphere! With all the snow and everything. Fits perfectly. There were ex-LucasArts hands on it. You can "feel" it. :)
(07:15:24) Cheeseness: Yeah :D
(07:16:14) Cheeseness: Yeah, Bill Tiller was the founder of AME
(07:16:31) Sven_Q45: Really? :D
(07:16:34) Cheeseness: Yeah
(07:16:39) Cheeseness: This is his game :D
(07:16:59) Sven_Q45: No again: Really? :D
(07:17:26) Cheeseness: Yep
(07:17:58) Sven_Q45: hrhr :D
(07:18:37) Cheeseness: Gotta love a Monkey Island reference
(07:18:49) Sven_Q45: The snow is falling slowly.
(07:21:33) GameClubFan_496083 left the room (quit: Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).
(07:22:50) Sven_Q45: The English voice of this women is a little bit strange. :D
(07:24:56) Cheeseness: lol, Froderick
(07:28:15) Cheeseness: Only a key to the city
(07:28:26) Cheeseness: The smallest piece of recognition
(07:28:28) Cheeseness: lol
(07:28:50) Sven_Q45: Why? I want THE WHOLE city. muahahaha. :D
(07:30:30) Jenni: I wonder if any one ever made fan art of a vampire jackalope
(07:31:06) Cheeseness: Jenni: Only My Little Pony related stuff from what I can see
(07:32:07) Cheeseness: I never got to play this when it came out. I keep finding myself surprised by the quality of backgrounds, voices and models
(07:32:40) Cheeseness: Animations are pretty good too (if a bit repetitive)
(07:35:25) Sven_Q45: Transylvania is Romania. Didn´t he just say Hungary?
(07:36:23) Jenni: yeah, about the only complaint I've heard against it (besides Mona's voice, which I personally have always liked) is that it is very wordy
(07:36:41) Cheeseness: Adventure game protagonists are compulsive thieves
(07:37:22) Jenni: And of course that the story never got a chance to be continued
(07:37:25) Jenni: Yet
(07:37:35) Sven_Q45: Yes. Randal from Randal monday is also a kleptomaniac. :D
(07:38:09) Cheeseness: I do hope they'll be able to make some AVS headway after Duke
(07:38:09) Peder [quassel@hide-BED2F455.range86-180.btcentralplus.com] entered the room.
(07:38:12) Cheeseness: Hey Peder
(07:38:48) Cheeseness: Oh, if anybody hasn't voted in the Game Club survey, do so! :D http://www.doublefine.com/forums/viewthread/16089/
(07:40:04) Sven_Q45: Rats!!
(07:40:15) Lightkey: calm down indiaia
(07:40:18) Lightkey: indiana
(07:40:21) Lightkey: d'oh
(07:40:55) Sven_Q45: Sam and Max Abe Lincoln must die or Toonstruck. All two were so interesting for me!
(07:41:04) Jenni: I always like anachronisms in games
(07:41:59) Jenni: Which is probably why I actually really liked Escape from Monkey Island
(07:42:14) Jenni: Except Monkey Kombat
(07:42:27) Sven_Q45: Yes. EMI was strangley modern. :D
(07:43:17) Sven_Q45: Know Mona talks like Bernard if you look at the pulley. :O
(07:43:21) Sven_Q45: Now
(07:44:16) Jenni: some of the voice over similarities might be intentional too
(07:44:52) Sven_Q45: What similarities? She doesn´t talk like Bernard.
(07:45:11) Sven_Q45: Or do you mean to other LA adventute games?
(07:45:29) Jenni: Like how Raz asks Ford Cruller if he's in love with his boat with the same breaks in lines as Sal says to Manny
(07:45:35) Cheeseness: Harry Moleman similarities :D
(07:46:04) Cheeseness: Yeah, sometimes there are nice homages like that
(07:48:56) Sven_Q45: Did you played WMYT A stitch in time here?
(07:49:11) Cheeseness: Nope
(07:49:13) Sven_Q45: play
(07:49:55) Sven_Q45: Finally it will get (German) voice over. :P
(07:50:02) Cheeseness: Where does her inventory go when she turns into a bat?
(07:50:23) Syd: Same place where Max keeps his gun
(07:50:33) Cheeseness: :D
(07:50:35) Sven_Q45: Syd. hehe
(07:53:36) Cheeseness: So many snowman heads
(07:54:42) Cheeseness: Uh oh
(07:55:06) Cheeseness: Weird, streeam dropped out for me for a moment
(07:55:08) Sven_Q45: Headhunter? :D
(07:58:39) Sven_Q45: Wow I didn´t knew about such singns. :D
(08:02:07) Cheeseness: I like how some people seem to hear Froderick, but some don't
(08:03:06) Sven_Q45: It´s a bit like Max.
(08:03:13) Cheeseness: Yeah
(08:09:32) Cheeseness: Mmm, greased Froderick
(08:10:32) Jenni left the room (quit: Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).

(08:14:42) Syd: Hey OzzieMonkey
(08:14:46) OzzieMonkey: Hello!
(08:15:14) Jenni [Mibbit@888F7ACE.DE72B444.5DE9E83A.IP] entered the room.
(08:15:30) Sven_Q45: hi.
(08:15:39) Syd: Welcome back, Jenni
(08:15:47) Jenni: Thanks
(08:15:51) Sven_Q45: They write Burgermeister with an "e"? Bergermeister?
(08:16:09) Syd: I think that might have been a typo
(08:16:22) Lightkey: indeed, should be Buergermeister :-P
(08:16:30) Glog78 [~Oknown_an@hide-AB6A5D39.pools.vodafone-ip.de] entered the room.
(08:16:34) Jenni: My Ipad just reset the connection, Puffin is acting a bit wonky
(08:16:45) Sven_Q45: Lightkey Bürgermeister. ;) hehe
(08:16:48) Cheeseness: Still working on getting your computer up and running, Jenni?
(08:17:42) Jenni: Yeah.  I found out that the Ubuntu utility actually makes the HD readable if I soft reset
(08:18:05) Jenni: I'm trying to do a time machine backup now
(08:18:30) Jenni: hopefully that works
(08:19:02) Cheeseness: Nice :)
(08:20:19) Glog78: am i the only one without sound ?
(08:20:32) Glog78: there it is

(08:21:56) Sven_Q45: Lol Froderik. :D
(08:22:14) Cheeseness: That was an odd run
(08:22:16) ***Glog78 says hi back to you nice people
(08:23:05) Cheeseness: <3
(08:23:57) Sven_Q45: You can say that again, Cheese.
(08:24:03) Glog78: cheese flibit streamed today too .. what a damm great day
(08:24:11) Cheeseness: ^_^
(08:27:25) Cheeseness: Ha ha, this argument
(08:27:57) Sven_Q45: lol
(08:29:05) Cheeseness: Is she doing the twist?
(08:29:05) Sven_Q45: Monas dance.
(08:30:02) Sven_Q45: danse. :P
(08:30:38) OzzieMonkey: Oh god...it actually was that song :p
(08:31:12) Sven_Q45: What do you think? :P
(08:31:13) Sven_Q45: +
(08:33:32) Cheeseness: RIP Uncle Rudy
(08:34:09) Sven_Q45: sharpest tool :D
(08:36:25) Cheeseness: Wow, he sounded like Strongbad when he said "Clam bake"
(08:36:25) Jenni: Clam bake heh
(08:36:39) OzzieMonkey left the room (quit: Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).
(08:38:15) dis__ left the room (quit: Quit: Leaving).
(08:42:25) Jenni: Wow missed the A113 reference last time I saw this
(08:42:30) Jenni: Neat
(08:42:42) Syd: Once of the license plates in the stables had A113 on it too I think
(08:43:16) Sven_Q45: Now I voted for Toonstruck. :)
(08:43:19) Syd: Uhh, cutscene is playing again for some reason
(08:43:25) Syd: Skipped it. :P
(08:43:56) Sven_Q45: Well it´s better than crash the game.
(08:44:16) Syd: Definitely
(08:44:39) Cheeseness: Awesome, Sven_Q45. Don't forget to leave a comment :D
(08:45:01) Sven_Q45: I did. Well a short one but hey.
(08:46:08) Sven_Q45: You know I liked it that they´d say they try to get the licence.
(08:46:11) Cheeseness: Cool cool :)
(08:46:23) Cheeseness: Mona likes to congratulate herself when she does stuff
(08:46:47) Sven_Q45: Yes it looks funny. Like a 10 years old girl. :D
(08:47:37) Sven_Q45: Maybe it was cheaper than success music. :P
(08:47:58) The_Mad_Pirate: hi
(08:48:04) Sven_Q45: hi
(08:48:59) Cheeseness: Hey The_Mad_Pirate
(08:49:09) The_Mad_Pirate: hey Cheeseness
(08:51:20) The_Mad_Pirate: wu iz zat ?
(08:51:29) Syd: Repeating cutscene again
(08:51:30) Syd: Weird bug
(08:51:38) Cheeseness: Strange
(08:52:21) The_Mad_Pirate: he wasn't so undead after all
(08:52:36) Sven_Q45: Cutscenes: It´s the icing on the cake for the end now. :D
(08:53:59) Peder left the room (quit: Client exited).
(08:54:19) Syd: And now we watch the ending
(08:54:42) Cheeseness: Woo \o/
(08:54:44) Syd: Repeating cutscene bug continues to be a bug
(08:54:50) Cheeseness: lol
(08:54:58) Cheeseness: It makes it twice as good
(08:55:26) Sven_Q45: Yeah he also says twice. :D
(08:57:50) The_Mad_Pirate: she shouldn't trust that gypsy woman
(08:59:18) The_Mad_Pirate: yup , a cliffhanger indeed.
(08:59:30) Cheeseness: When I saw the ending I finally understood why so many fans were still waiting on a sequel
(08:59:41) Sven_Q45: Yes. :(
(08:59:45) Jenni: Yeah
(08:59:57) Jenni: very ominous
(09:01:06) Jenni: not a good place to leave the story if a sequel is never made
(09:01:26) Cheeseness: There's the twist again
(09:02:03) Cheeseness: Maybe, maybe not. I kinda miss that people seem unwilling to accept "And the adventure continues!" as an ending these days
(09:02:13) Jenni: hopefully if Crimson Cow won't budge they'll at least be able to release something to tie it up
(09:03:02) Syd: Let me know when the outro audio ends
(09:03:08) Sven_Q45: yes
(09:03:13) Jenni: like Crackpot did with the cutscenes for Insecticide Part II
(09:03:44) Cheeseness: It's done Syd
(09:03:47) Jenni: the audio is done now Syd
(09:03:54) Cheeseness: Here's the A Vampyre Story thread. Leave some comments on the game! :D http://www.doublefine.com/forums/viewthread/16023/
(09:04:16) Syd: This session went a little longer than I thought it would. :P
(09:04:24) The_Mad_Pirate: yeah , I missed the woman of low moral fiber
(09:04:25) Glog78: Thanx alot for the stream as always
(09:04:35) The_Mad_Pirate: that must have been pretty hilarious
(09:04:47) The_Mad_Pirate: Syd: thanks lady !
(09:05:26) Syd: I gotta head out and get something to eat. Thanks for joining us again and see you all at the next session! :)
(09:05:27) Cheeseness: Thanks for streaming, Syd :)
(09:05:42) Syd left the room (quit: Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).
(09:05:52) Cheeseness: Had you played the game before, The_Mad_Pirate?
(09:06:32) The_Mad_Pirate: Cheeseness: nope
(09:06:50) Cheeseness: It's pretty good
(09:07:04) The_Mad_Pirate: Cheeseness: dunno it this notebook handles
(09:07:21) The_Mad_Pirate: Cheeseness: it abrely handles Shadowrun returns
(09:07:34) Cheeseness: It's a fairly old game. It might run
(09:07:39) The_Mad_Pirate: Cheeseness: Psychonauts on the other hand is completly unplayable
(09:07:44) Cheeseness: Aww
(09:08:34) The_Mad_Pirate: Cheeseness: I did start playing Flight of the Amazon Queen , and that's a fairly old game indeed
(09:08:56) Cheeseness: Yeah, that is :D
(09:09:28) The_Mad_Pirate: very Scumm-esque
(09:10:17) The_Mad_Pirate: Cheeseness: What game are you guys playing next week ?
(09:10:23) Sven_Q45:  FOTAQ. Yeah. We have to play this.
(09:10:31) Cheeseness: Next week we're doing Violett
(09:10:42) Cheeseness: Yeah, we should do Flight of the Amazon Queen at some point
(09:11:55) The_Mad_Pirate: It reminds me to Indyana Jones and The Fate of Atlantis. I was released about the same time.
(09:12:04) The_Mad_Pirate: What is Violett about ?
(09:12:31) Cheeseness: You play a girl who is transported to a farytale land
(09:12:32) Cheeseness: http://www.doublefine.com/forums/viewthread/16159/
(09:12:41) Sven_Q45: Yes that´s what FOTAQ should be.
(09:13:06) Sven_Q45: I played Amazon Queen a whole night the first time. Nice night!
(09:14:17) Cheeseness: I'll wrap up the chat log there. Thanks for coming, people <3
