- (04:57:58 AM) Syd: The event just went off on Steam
- (04:58:01 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Hi Gamnos
- (04:58:01 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Sweet
- (04:58:04 AM) Syd: Hey Gamnos
- (04:58:05 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Let's get started :)
- (04:59:00 AM) Nut_Column [8ecf0c3c@hide-BF4D4B18.mibbit.com] entered the room.
- (04:59:12 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: One thing I find irritating is that the buttons aren't labeled
- (04:59:45 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: It's not a big deal, but it has made me stop and wonder a couple of times ^_^
- (05:00:43 AM) Syd: I bumped the forum thread, Cheese.
- (05:00:55 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Thanks Syd <3
- (05:02:09 AM) GameClubFan_662594 [50d9a81e@hide-BF4D4B18.mibbit.com] entered the room.
- (05:02:30 AM) GameClubFan_662594 left the room (quit: Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).
- (05:02:41 AM) Krischev [50d9a81e@hide-6C77D8AA.mibbit.com] entered the room.
- (05:03:34 AM) lietu: btw, cheese, I think we should make a little link or something that would extend the video screen on the DFGC page, since it's ridiculously small for 4:3 games
- (05:03:56 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: THere's the fullscreen button
- (05:04:03 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: But I guess that's not helpful for people who want to chat as well
- (05:04:54 AM) lietu: also fullscreen doesn't work that well in my linux due to the settings I've got
- (05:05:00 AM) Gamnos: Hey word missing in the voice-over!
- (05:05:37 AM) Gamnos: Censorship I guess.
- (05:05:49 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Ah, k. It's a good size for me both on my netbook and my desktop, but more options are always good
- (05:06:00 AM) Syd: If that's the case, that's an odd word to censor.
- (05:06:03 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Gamnos: Nah, I think just voice acting omissions/ad-libs
- (05:06:22 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: There are lots of little discrepancies here and there
- (05:06:44 AM) Gamnos: The missing word referred to his private parts ;-)
- (05:07:00 AM) Syd: "Balls" :P
- (05:07:22 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: The localisation of the subtitles might not be the script that the voice actors were working from (there are lots of Australian terms that are swapped out)
- (05:07:49 AM) Krischev: Did the orignial version have voice-acting?
- (05:08:00 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Nope
- (05:08:07 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: That was added later
- (05:08:21 AM) Krischev: Thought so, didn't remember any voice :)
- (05:10:14 AM) Krischev: This is one of the greatest adventure games made btw. :)
- (05:10:26 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: It's pretty neat. I hadn't played it before
- (05:10:36 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: (which is why I'm probably going to muck up from time to time)
- (05:10:57 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: It took a little while to get a feel for the tone of the game, but I really enjoyed it
- (05:10:58 AM) Gamnos: Krischev: And still fun to replay
- (05:11:34 AM) Krischev: Gamnos: Sure is
- (05:12:12 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: I wish Joey would hurry up D:
- (05:12:37 AM) Gamnos: Cheeseness_netbook: cheap shell
- (05:14:18 AM) Gamnos: Would have been nice if Foster could put Joey's circuit board back in his pocket, to do something elsewhere
- (05:15:10 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Maybe. There aren't other shells to use it with though
- (05:15:32 AM) Gamnos: Cheeseness_netbook: there was one in the park
- (05:15:43 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Downstairs?
- (05:15:48 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: We haven't gotten to that bit yet ;)
- (05:16:02 AM) Gamnos: Cheeseness_netbook: near the pond I believe
- (05:16:13 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Yep, that's later
- (05:16:20 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: And it's the same shell :b
- (05:16:34 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Ha, whoops. Wrong way
- (05:16:57 AM) Gamnos: But it has other possibilities perhaps
- (05:17:10 AM) YossarianStrange [5e0462f4@hide-BF4D4B18.mibbit.com] entered the room.
- (05:17:52 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: It would have been nice, but as the game currently is, there'd need to be other shells for you to use his board with
- (05:17:59 AM) Gamnos: Was just a thought .. trying to spot things what could have been extra/otherwise
- (05:18:44 AM) Gamnos: This is a red herring (bit dissappointing)
- (05:19:03 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Yeah, I spent a little while trying to work out what the lockers were for
- (05:20:24 AM) lietu: I really hate this part of the game
- (05:20:27 AM) Gamnos: Great episode, this one, nice music as well (unless you get often killed). Liked the extra interface too.
- (05:20:41 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Yeah, I like the music ^_^
- (05:20:46 AM) Gamnos: lietu: sorry!
- (05:20:53 AM) lietu: ;)
- (05:21:27 AM) Gamnos: Now that is a MAZE!
- (05:21:54 AM) Gamnos: Remember the swamp in Return to Zork?
- (05:22:29 AM) YossarianStrange: this game takes me back...
- (05:22:36 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: :)
- (05:22:45 AM) YossarianStrange: never got this far!
- (05:22:55 AM) Krischev: Return to Zork was before my time i think :)
- (05:23:31 AM) Gamnos: Krischev: It has the right title for you ;-)
- (05:24:03 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: YossarianStrange: How far did you get? Did you watch our previous stream?
- (05:24:23 AM) Nut_Column left the room (quit: Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).
- (05:24:24 AM) Krischev: Gamnos: Sorry?
- (05:24:48 AM) Gamnos: Krischev: "return"
- (05:25:02 AM) YossarianStrange: no didnt catch it
- (05:25:24 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: THere's an archive if you're interested
- (05:25:26 AM) Gamnos: YossarianStrange: ok :-)
- (05:25:37 AM) Krischev: Gamnos: I don't get it :)
- (05:26:43 AM) Gamnos: Krischev: used wrong name
- (05:27:35 AM) YossarianStrange: i think i got to cyberspace my first playthrough - and got stuck
- (05:27:53 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: It's interesting that you can get the "special policy" topic from a couple of people
- (05:28:08 AM) Krischev: Ah, now I see why I didn't play Return to Zork. It wasn't on Amiga.
- (05:28:51 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Amiga FTW :D
- (05:29:10 AM) YossarianStrange: wish i could draw backgounds as cool as these
- (05:29:18 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Hey yama, have you forgotten about the stream? ^_^
- (05:29:19 AM) Gamnos: Krischev: it's still nice to play ... not much story though.
- (05:29:46 AM) YossarianStrange: love the cyberpunk look
- (05:29:49 AM) Krischev: Gamnos: I see
- (05:29:55 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Yeah, there's some great art in this game
- (05:30:12 AM) Krischev: Yeah, the backgrounds are nice
- (05:31:05 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: That was umm interesting looking food
- (05:31:11 AM) Krischev: :)
- (05:32:06 AM) YossarianStrange: i remember being super excited when i first saw in here - felt like a voyeur! don't you spy through the window first?
- (05:32:16 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: You can :)
- (05:32:28 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: We did in the last session when waiting for Lamb
- (05:32:32 AM) YossarianStrange: thats cool i never saw that
- (05:32:47 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: We can watch the cat eat if you like
- (05:32:48 AM) Gamnos: You can also do it with the grills later on
- (05:33:13 AM) YossarianStrange: yeah thats what i remember!
- (05:33:15 AM) Krischev: This is actually the first time I'm here. What games have you played on other occasions?
- (05:33:31 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Ah, here we go. See, that shell's the same one >_<
- (05:34:05 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: We can't do anything with it now :(
- (05:34:34 AM) Krischev: And Amiga btw, was a pain changing all the disks :)
- (05:34:42 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Mmm... Mrs Peirmont :/
- (05:34:51 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Ha, changing disks was half the fun!
- (05:35:28 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: How many disks was Beneath A Steel Sky?
- (05:35:51 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: I think the biggest game I had was Dragon's Lair, which weighed in at 7 floppies.
- (05:35:53 AM) Gamnos: Fortunately that is in the past - some games have still long loading times though
- (05:36:26 AM) Gamnos: Cheeseness_netbook: 15 disks
- (05:36:48 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: 15 disks? For the non-talkie version of BASS?
- (05:36:54 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Zany
- (05:36:55 AM) Gamnos: That's the Amiga version
- (05:37:10 AM) Gamnos: Pc only 6
- (05:37:19 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Interesting
- (05:37:25 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: I imagine the Amiga version had better assets
- (05:37:25 AM) Krischev: I played Police quest 3 and monkey island on amiga, remember i had to change all the time... The disks broke after a while...
- (05:37:45 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Aww. My Monkey Island disks still work :3
- (05:38:07 AM) Krischev: nice :)
- (05:38:53 AM) Krischev: you couldn't enter the door to the left on the amiga version
- (05:39:09 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: You can't enter it here until one specific point in the game
- (05:39:38 AM) Krischev: but on amiga you couldnt enter at all :) they removed that part
- (05:39:48 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Interesting
- (05:40:21 AM) YossarianStrange: there was pleasing physical feedback to floppy disk insertion that cd/dvd could never replicate
- (05:40:34 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: :)
- (05:40:34 AM) Gamnos: Krischev: hope it will be revealed for you here the courtroom scene (would have been an extra disk/Amiga)
- (05:40:53 AM) YossarianStrange: it was *mechanical*
- (05:41:17 AM) Krischev: Gamnos: I actually played this later on, on pc :)
- (05:41:45 AM) Krischev: I can agree to that Yossarian
- (05:42:11 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Ha, subtitle difference there
- (05:42:34 AM) YossarianStrange: does that kid have an ipad!
- (05:42:45 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Sure ^_^
- (05:42:50 AM) Krischev: gameboy? :)
- (05:42:53 AM) Gamnos: Stalker!
- (05:43:01 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Oh, my word
- (05:43:02 AM) Syd: A big gameboy
- (05:43:16 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Wasn't this an exciting part >_<
- (05:43:41 AM) YossarianStrange: big flat tvs on the wall... will never happen
- (05:43:56 AM) Syd: Crazy far-off future tech.
- (05:43:57 AM) Gamnos: Fantastic couch - no nudity in the corner - liked the jazzy music
- (05:44:11 AM) Krischev: hehe
- (05:44:35 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: I used to live in Hobart ^_^
- (05:44:55 AM) Krischev: Is that tasmania?
- (05:45:03 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: It's in Tasmania, yeah
- (05:45:07 AM) Gamnos: Cheeseness_netbook: you are one of the Hobart suspects!
- (05:45:18 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Shh, don't tell anyone
- (05:45:36 AM) YossarianStrange: i actually love the square with rounded edge windows - very 60's retro/future
- (05:46:05 AM) Krischev: the tv and the two windows look like a face :)
- (05:46:07 AM) Gamnos: YossarianStrange: Nice observation!
- (05:46:28 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: I love the indoor tree
- (05:46:40 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: And not so much the lack of clothing >_<
- (05:46:55 AM) Krischev: a lot of greenery on the lower level
- (05:47:23 AM) Gamnos: In a picture in an old magazine you could look through her dress (left out)
- (05:47:25 AM) Syd: I've always been fond of retro-futurism. Part of the reason I enjoy the Fallout series.
- (05:47:27 AM) Krischev: the lack of clothing?
- (05:47:46 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Mrs Piermont isn't wearing much
- (05:48:02 AM) Krischev: aha, didnt notice
- (05:48:13 AM) Syd: Guess in the future we'll be going back to VCRs.
- (05:48:19 AM) Krischev: yep :)
- (05:48:55 AM) Krischev: nano VCRs :)
- (05:49:22 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: I think we'll play till the hour and then leave the rest for next week
- (05:50:05 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: All those Hobart game devs :b
- (05:50:14 AM) Krischev: hehe
- (05:50:27 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: There are/have been a few
- (05:50:35 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: I did a little whilst I was living there
- (05:51:12 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: And most of the guys from ATMOS (they worked on Excape Velocity: Nova) lived in Hobart as well
- (05:52:24 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: I *think* the dog is meant to appear at this point...
- (05:52:55 AM) Krischev: go back?
- (05:53:10 AM) Krischev: there he is :)
- (05:53:17 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: lol
- (05:53:28 AM) Krischev: hehe
- (05:54:16 AM) Krischev: Google?
- (05:54:27 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Heh
- (05:55:16 AM) Syd: He doesn't seem too bothered by dead bodies
- (05:56:05 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: No, he doesn't
- (05:56:36 AM) Syd: There's always a use for a severed head. It might guide you through a maze. ;)
- (05:56:44 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: :D
- (05:57:05 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Or it might have a necklace you need
- (05:57:26 AM) Krischev: Is that from a game?
- (05:57:37 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: From The Secret Of Monkey Island ;)
- (05:57:48 AM) Krischev: ah, seemed familiar :)
- (05:58:13 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Syd streamed that when we played it ^_^
- (05:58:23 AM) Krischev: aha :)
- (05:58:55 AM) Krischev: is this once a week?
- (05:59:00 AM) Syd: Yeah
- (05:59:01 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Yep
- (05:59:06 AM) Krischev: cool
- (05:59:37 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Though that's a bit of effort to keep up. We're having trouble finding additional people to help stream stuff
- (05:59:53 AM) Krischev: aha
- (06:00:29 AM) Syd: I'd stream more often if my internet didn't enjoy sabotaging my efforts.
- (06:00:58 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: You did alright aside from that one time
- (06:01:04 AM) Syd: Though I may try streaming Monkey Island 2 once we get around to that
- (06:01:10 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: :)
- (06:01:26 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: We're hoping to play The Last Express next if somebody's willing to stream
- (06:01:27 AM) Syd: Yeah, it was just that one day (coincidentally the day we got the most attention) that it was so bad that I could barely stream.
- (06:01:37 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Yeah >_<
- (06:01:50 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: It was a pretty unfortunate coincidence
- (06:01:56 AM) Syd: Only had a few people watching the finale stream for SoMI, and that went by without a problem.
- (06:02:34 AM) Krischev: Should play The longest journey some time if you havent
- (06:02:51 AM) Syd: I'm most comfortable with streaming LucasArts games since those are the ones I've played enough to have memorized.
- (06:02:56 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: I think it's in the list of stuff we asked people to vote on
- (06:03:27 AM) Krischev: Where's the list?
- (06:03:34 AM) Gamnos: Cheeseness_netbook: didn't know, will take a look, thanks.
- (06:03:52 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: In the game club planning thread - I think I put a link on the botton of the stream page
- (06:04:10 AM) Krischev: i'll take a look later
- (06:05:08 AM) Gamnos: "Well" done (in time)!
- (06:05:58 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: I think we'll do the Eduardo dialogue and then call it a day :)
- (06:06:21 AM) Gamnos: Ok
- (06:06:38 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: It's lonely up here without Joey
- (06:07:05 AM) Syd: Don't have to wait for him to use the elevator, at least.
- (06:07:12 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: That's true
- (06:11:54 AM) Gamnos: Those movements with his feet are still amusing.
- (06:12:06 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: :)
- (06:12:45 AM) Peder: great.. forgot about the stream :(
- (06:13:11 AM) Syd: Aww. Well, it should get archived if you want to catch up later.
- (06:13:27 AM) Cheeseness_netbook: Yeah, I'm about to archive it :)
- (06:13:40 AM) Peder: yes, I watched part one earlier
- (06:13:47 AM) YossarianStrange left the room (quit: Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).
- (06:14:00 AM) Krischev left the room (quit: Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).
- (06:14:02 AM) Gamnos: Ch Thanks again. See you next week!
- (06:14:03 AM) Cheeseness: Alrighty
- (06:14:06 AM) Cheeseness: No worries guys
- (06:14:08 AM) Cheeseness: Have fun :)
